Chapter 1120 Rumors

1120 Rumors

Xu Shi summoned her Chaos Pot, which spewed a veil of primordial chaos to protect her. In the meantime, she dealt with the attack on her mind. She found herself in a world of her mind with nothing in sight. As she was about to try something to leave this place, she heard an alluring voice.

"Do you think he truly loves you?"

Xu Shi frowned as the voice seemed familiar.

"Do you think he has changed?"

"He has," replied Xu Shi as she mustered a terrifying power of chaos to destroy this Mind Space.

"Can you trust him while he's separated from you? Do you trust him not to find another woman?" said the enchanting voice.

"If I didn't trust him, I would not stay with him," Xu Shi declared.

"Then, you're better than me," said the voice, who finally appeared.

"A Heart Devil?" The person looked exactly like Xu Shi.

"More like a manifestation of your insecurities?"

"Insecurities? Those are bold terms," sneered Xu Shi. "What insecurities do I have?"

"Of course, it is about our Xiao Fan," said Heart Xu Shi.

"Nonsense," uttered Xu Shi calmly as she waved his hand to send a black slash with the power to wipe out time itself. However, the attack passed through the other as if she were intangible.

"Why are you reacting so fiercely if I'm only talking nonsense?"

"Because your words and even your existence are an insult to me," rebutted Xu Shi. "Do you think my relationship with him defines me? Do you think I spent every waking hour thinking about my husband? Do you think my life has no meaning without him around?"

"Isn't it?" asked Heart Xu Shi with a devilish smile. Her words contained a power that was extremely alluring to the mind.

"Maybe in the past, but not now - not ever again," said Xu Shi. "I've grown. He's grown. And now, our lives are better than before. Maybe things will change, but that goes for every relationship."

Heart Xu Shi looked at her genuine self before rapidly dissipating. The real Xu Shi thought this charade had ended, but she was wrong -- a second one appeared.

"What is it this time?" She could tell that time was passing slower in this mind space than outside, but that did not change the fact that time was still passing. If she did not leave quietly, Chu Luo would break through her defense and severely injure her.

"There have been rumors that you have entered a secret relationship with Wang Wei," snicked the second Heart Xu Shi. "So, is it true? Even if it's not, you should really entertain this idea."

Xu Shi's mouth twitched. Of course, she had heard of the rumors. They were everywhere in the Dream World and one of the most talked-about things in that space. However, she knew how ridiculous these rumors were. First, she was not this kind of woman; second, this man was head over heels in love with his wife.

"Your words are an even bigger insult than the first one."
