Seeing that Su Gao’s expression revealed not a single flaw, Fu Qian felt more certain than ever about his previous speculation.
Due to the Fool’s Tree, Su Gao had forgotten many things from the past, and upon realizing that Lego and Delin might also have been involved, she wanted to use them to recover the missing parts of her memory.
When Lego first visited, his mention of Delin elicited a reaction from Su Gao, which was partly for the sake of appearances, but also, quite possibly, due to her own hidden motives.
However, the key issue was that Lego and others didn’t know much about the overall event, especially since Fu Qian’s final countdown had directly scared them off.
Wait a second—they know I exist!
Fu Qian glanced at Su Gao.
Could this be the information she was trying to confirm?
In the entire event, she couldn’t reconstruct the specific details, and there were things she couldn’t figure out, suspecting something crucial was missing that propelled the event?
For instance, why did she drink the sap of the Fool’s Tree?
“Thirteen years.”
Delin, unaware of anything unusual in Su Gao’s question, sighed deeply once again with much emotion.
“That ordeal, to this day, is still vivid in my memory, impossible to forget.”
“Looking back, it seems almost inconceivable that we managed to return alive.”
Lego, standing beside him, also had a look of wistful reflection.
“Thirteen years…”
Su Gao repeated softly, her eyes sparkling.
To Lego and the others, it seemed she was moved by their story, but Fu Qian knew it was because she had matched up the timelines.
“What kind of crisis was it, exactly?”
A few seconds later, Su Gao inevitably continued to ask.
“Sorry, we’ve been ordered to keep the details strictly confidential; all we can tell you is that the incident happened on Ye Island,”
Delin and Lego exchanged a glance, refusing quite firmly.
“So unfortunately, we can’t satisfy your curiosity.”
“Actually, you probably wouldn’t want to know those details.”
“All right.”
Su Gao clearly seemed disappointed, but she was very polite and did not press the matter.
“Actually, I can imagine… an experience severe enough to make both of you give up adventuring…”
She let out a sigh the next moment.
“So in that incident, were you two the only survivors?”
Uh…
Facing Su Gao’s natural follow-up question, Delin furrowed his brow slightly, his tone somewhat hesitant.
“Actually, I’m not sure if it was just the two of us who survived; there were some entities we couldn’t comprehend…”
“Actually, if it hadn’t been for that entity, we probably wouldn’t have survived, but the Night Watchman never confirmed it with us afterward.”
“I see, thank you for your patient explanation.”
Su Gao thanked him earnestly, sparing Delin from further discomfort.
“Don’t mention it; for a young person like you to be willing to listen to our old stories, that alone is quite rare to me.”
Delin clearly quite admired Su Gao’s understanding demeanor.
“Mr. Darcy, do you have any questions?”
The next moment he turned to Fu Qian, asking perfunctorily.
A question, huh…
Fu Qian actually began pondering seriously.
“I heard Mr. Delin has a daughter?”
In that instant, the air seemed to freeze.
The previously warm and jovial garden tea party suddenly became so cold that ice seemed to fall.
No, it wasn’t just seemed—ice was literally falling.
Looking at the white mist condensing around Lego, Fu Qian naturally thought of the frost arrows shot by this person back in the Rotten Forest.
And his reaction wasn’t even the most intense. In this moment, Delin had already risen to his feet, facing the sun.
Under the pale golden light, his entire face resembled rusted bronze.
The distorted features, rearranging themselves in an eerie fashion, exuded an ineffable impact.
Not bad. This guy had actually reached the Middle Tier.
