Chapter 5238
'Heh...'
Seeing Lindsey's facial expression, Adam grinned and said, "As I said, I had a friendship
with your father. Of course, I'd know about that."
As he spoke, he felt rather emotional deep down.
'Haha... What a silly girl. Looks like I was right. She’s still unaware that a thousand years
have passed.' "That's great."
As Lindsey was silently excited, she had also completely let her guard down. She looked at
Adam excitedly and asked imperatively, "Do you know where my father is?"
Lindsey meant well, and she did not know that she had fallen into Adam's trap.
Seeing Lindsey looking desperate, Adam did not answer him immediately. Instead, he
exhaled lightly, thought for a moment, and said, "I have no idea where your father is, but
before the Heavenly Secret Palace was wiped out, I met your father once, and he told me
about a place and told me to bring you there."
To gain Lindsey's trust, Adam started talking nonsense. Hearing that, Lindsey was even
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmore convinced.
'The underground city is rather hidden. Aside from the people of the Heavenly Secret
Palace, outsiders can't come here. The fact that Adam found this place proves that he's
dad's friend.'
The conversation between Adam and Lindsey was not loud, but the elites from each sect
could hear them clearly.
'This...'
At that moment, everyone was impressed that Adam could frighten Lindsey with just a few
words.
'The Alliance Master is really something. He has won the girl's trust with just a few words.
That's so impressive. I'm sure we don't need to torture her. We'd get a chance to ask her
where the treasures are.'
At the same time, Darryl glared at Adam, and he could not help but inhale deeply.
'This man is so cunning. It's so scary! He gained Lindsey's trust with just a few words. I
can't imagine what would happen if he had found the treasures hidden here.'
In fact, Darryl was not bothered by Adam's character. Instead, he was worried for Lindsey.
As Darryl thought to himself, he had an urge to rush down, but after considering it
carefully, he held himself back.
"Now that Lindsey is so trusting of Adam, I'm afraid it'd be difficult for me to take her
away. I'll just continue observing.'
Lindsey looked at Adam desperately and said, "Since it was my father who told you to look
for me, let's go now."
The underground city was magnificent, but it had not seen the light of day. As a child,
Lindsey would not be able to stay there for long.
More importantly, she missed her father and could not wait to leave.
However, Adam would not bring her out of that place easily. Once they left that place, his
lie would be exposed immediately.
'Haha...'
At that moment, Adam chuckled and pretended to be concerned. "There are many gods
from the Heavenly God Realm out there, and they’re investigating the whereabouts of the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmembers of the Heavenly Secret Palace. It's dangerous to go out. Don't worry. I'm good
friends with your father, and I'll certainly bring you out."
Then, Adam changed his tone.
"Before we head out, we need to bring some things here with us." 'Things?' Lindsey was
startled.
Before Lindsey could ask, Adam continued to say solemnly, "I mean the things that the
Heavenly Secret Palace left here. When your father brought you here, he must've told you
that he hid many things here and that they're important to the Heavenly Secret Palace,
right?"
What Adam said was solely based on his assumptions.
'There are countless treasures here. Since Joses built the underground city here, he
must've hidden something here. Plus, he would certainly tell his daughter.'
It had shown that Adam had guessed correctly.
Seeing Adam looking sincere, Lindsey nodded and said, "My father did hide something."
She had been completely blindsided by Adam's fake sincerity, and she did not realize that
she had fallen into his trap.
