Chapter 424: Noticing the Clue

But only they were privy to the true state of affairs, which could not be exposed to others, not even through their actions, including Liu Xiu, as the matter was of great significance.

Han Yu did not divulge the information he obtained from Sikong Ling to Liu Xiu. For one, it was Sikong Ling's request, and moreover, Han Yu did not wish to arouse Liu Xiu's suspicion. After all, Liu Xiu did not fully trust Han Yu at this time—Han Yu's power was even greater than Liu Xiu's. Liu Xiu had once suspected that Han Yu had malicious intentions, pretending to surrender to lower his guard with the aim of overtaking his power. However, upon analysis, there was no need for Han Yu to do so, and his actions did not imply it, but Liu Xiu still couldn't completely trust him, knowing that this was a man capable of overturning his power at any moment.
