Chapter 112 Everything is crystal clear

He was going to spit blood! Lin Tian was truly going to be so angry that he would spit blood!

Me, chasing girls every day? Jiang Chenfeng, you have been groveling after Liu Xinlan for three years; who doesn't know that?

What right do you have to judge me? And claiming I take an hour every day to study! It's absolutely laughable!

Jiang Chenfeng, you spend your days idling about; what nerve do you have to lecture me?

Lin Tian seethed with secret resentment, but he could not refute Jiang Chenfeng. After all, he had no evidence to prove that Jiang Chenfeng truly had not known about the ultimate skill of Clear Heart Perception just moments ago.

He had now made up his mind: he had to use Master Xu Gu's hand to completely eliminate Jiang Chenfeng!

However, Master Xu Gu's temperament was eccentric, forcing him to be cautious for fear that his scheme would backfire.

Lin Tian stopped paying attention to Jiang Chenfeng and continued speaking to Master Xu Gu, "Senior Master Xu Gu, the martial arts ultimate skill of Clear Heart Perception has long been lost. I fear that in this world today, you are the only one who still knows it!"

Master Xu Gu nodded lightly, a proud smile on his face as he said, "That is only natural! Clear Heart Perception fuses the profound mysteries of Shaolin and Wudang martial arts. Even if an ordinary person were to study it diligently for decades, they might not achieve anything. It was well within my expectations that such an ultimate skill would be lost."

"Indeed! Even I am keenly aware of how difficult it is to cultivate the ultimate skill of Clear Heart Perception! Yet, for you, Senior Master Xu Gu, to have completely mastered it is simply incredible!"

Jiang Chenfeng continued to praise him unstintingly, "I fear that even the proud sons of heaven from over a hundred years ago, who lived in the same era as you, could not compare to even one-tenth of your comprehension!"

Master Xu Gu nodded with an arrogant expression and said with a smile, "You, brat, are right. Back then, I was the only person in the entire martial arts world to have comprehended Clear Heart Perception to the minor success stage!"

"It seems your nature isn't bad. Even if your comprehension ability isn't on par with mine, it's not far off. If you are interested, I can teach you this ultimate skill so that Clear Heart Perception may continue to be passed down."

Jiang Chenfeng's eyes lit up.

Lin Tian panicked instantly and said in alarm, "Senior Master Xu Gu, haven't you realized? This guy is just buttering you up! Don't you hate people like that the most? How can you pass this ultimate skill on to him?"

Master Xu Gu's expression instantly darkened as he said coldly, "I have already said that I have the ability to distinguish right from wrong! Do you think I cannot tell whether he is buttering me up or speaking the truth?"

"Even if you do not trust me, you should trust my Clear Heart Perception! This ultimate skill allows me to see through all disguises; I can tell at a glance whether he is speaking from his heart!"

"If he is stating facts, even if it is flattery, what harm is there in letting him flatter me? Does it cause me any loss?"

"This..." Lin Tian was immediately covered in cold sweat.

It was over! He had spoken out of turn, and instead, he had made Master Xu Gu unhappy.

But Jiang Chenfeng really was buttering him up just now! Didn't Master Xu Gu hate such sycophants? Why did Master Xu Gu show no signs of revulsion when Jiang Chenfeng said those things?

Jiang Chenfeng glanced at Lin Tian, couldn't be bothered to acknowledge him, and said to Master Xu Gu, "Senior, you have already cultivated Clear Heart Perception to the highest realm. Even if I were more capable, I would not dare to play tricks in front of you! Whether I am speaking from the heart, you know best, Senior!"

"If someone thinks that because I speak a few truths, I am merely flattering you and trying to curry favor, then I can only shut my mouth and say nothing more!"

"After all, I am a person who only speaks the truth. If I were forced to say things I didn't mean, I think it would be better to say nothing at all, so as not to annoy you, Senior!"

Hearing Jiang Chenfeng's words, Master Xu Gu looked at Lin Tian with increasing dissatisfaction and quickly said, "Say whatever you want. Whether you are buttering me up or not, I know it in my heart! I do indeed hate those sycophantic villains, but I value upright gentlemen who speak the truth."

"I cannot be considered a gentleman. After all, just now when you, Senior, said you would pass on Clear Heart Perception to me, I did indeed feel a moment of greed and wanted to learn your Clear Heart Perception." Jiang Chenfeng lowered his head, looking deeply ashamed.

"Hahaha!" Master Xu Gu laughed heartily and said, "It was my intention to teach you, so what is wrong with you wanting to learn? Since you genuinely want to learn, I will teach you Clear Heart Perception right now. If I can ensure Clear Heart Perception is passed on, I will have performed a great service!"

Jiang Chenfeng hesitated for a moment, then sighed, "With my current body, I fear I lack the energy and ability to learn your ultimate skill, Clear Heart Perception!"

"Your physical condition is indeed quite poor. You must have been severely injured by someone, right? The formation vortex I set up alone would not be enough to injure you to this extent."

Master Xu Gu did indeed have some skill; he saw through the condition inside Jiang Chenfeng's body at a glance and said, "Don't worry too much. I have a restoration pill here that can repair all the injuries in your body in a short amount of time!"

He took out a pill.

Jiang Chenfeng's eyes lit up immediately, and his breathing quickened slightly. As long as he obtained this pill, he could completely recover from his injuries!

"Don't!" Lin Tian panicked instantly and hurriedly tried to stop him, "Senior! You absolutely must not save him! This guy is truly a bad person and a sinister villain. I ended up in this state because he harmed me!"

Master Xu Gu turned his head to look at Jiang Chenfeng and asked, "He says you are a bad person. Are you a bad person?"

"No!" Jiang Chenfeng shook his head calmly.

Master Xu Gu glared at Lin Tian and said, "Did you hear that? He is not a bad person!"

Lin Tian was completely stunned.

Could such a thing happen? Just because he said he wasn't, he wasn't? Who the hell would voluntarily admit to being a bad person! Damn it!

Could this Old Thing have been in seclusion for so long that his brain has rotted from it?

"Senior Master Xu Gu, no bad person will admit that they are a bad person. Asking him like that is equivalent to asking for nothing!" Lin Tian reminded him cautiously.

Master Xu Gu coldly snorted, "I have Clear Heart Perception. Whether he is speaking from his heart or not, I know it crystal clear!"

This was the real reason why Master Xu Gu believed Jiang Chenfeng. Of course, it was impossible for him to believe Jiang Chenfeng was a good person based on just one sentence. Clear Heart Perception had exactly this ability, allowing him to know clearly whether Jiang Chenfeng was lying when he answered.

Just now, Jiang Chenfeng had answered decisively and clearly, and Clear Heart Perception had not detected the slightest flaw. If Jiang Chenfeng had been lying, it would mean he could even deceive Clear Heart Perception, which was absolutely impossible!
