Chapter 67: Playing With Fire:
As soon as Chu Xuan finished speaking, tremendous pressure suddenly descended on him.
Chu Xuan gasped, almost kneeling on the ground.
Tang Chuan raised his head, and the next moment, a rumbling sound came from the void.
Tang Chuan responded deeply, "Great Holy Sect's Holy Son, this isn't the Zhongtian continent. If things get too out of hand, it won't be easy for you to handle it, right?"
Su Changyu's smile remained indifferent. "Wherever a dog is barking, we'll have to deal with the dog. What do you think, Holy Son of the Ancient Moon Sect?"
"Indeed." Tang Chuan signaled to withdraw, and the argument in the void concluded.
He swept his gaze around. But to his surprise, apart from the chair Su Changyu was sitting on, there wasn't even a place to sit.
Tang Chuan frowned slightly. Born to be respected by tens of thousands of people, this lack of respect was indeed infuriating.
Nonetheless, Tang Chuan remained composed.
"I'm curious why the Great Holy Sect's Holy Son came to Beiyang," Tang Chuan asked flatly. "Instead of preparing for the upcoming Ancient Battlefield of Chaos within your sect, your presence here alone suggests more than mere sightseeing."
Su Changyu smirked, "What if I really came here for sightseeing?"
As he spoke, he used the system to check Tang Chuan.
While Tang Chuan's destiny level appeared at four stars, there could still be significant differences between similar levels.
For instance, 41 and 49 were both within 40. But, could they be the same?
He glanced at the white rabbit in Tang Chuan's arms.
Just like in the original novel, the heroine sacrificed herself for Tang Chuan, and finally gave up her true form.
"Heh~ it seems that the Holy Son of the Great Holy Sect doesn't intend to tell the truth, so I might as well tell you." Tang Chuan narrowed his eyes slightly, "You came to Beiyang for the Tianxing Cliff, right? More precisely, for the Source Fire there!"
Everyone was shocked.
Bing Yao furrowed her eyebrows, "The Tianxing Cliff contains Source Fire?"
Bing Yao recalled Tang Chuan's recent restlessness at the Tianxing Cliff.
But if that was the case, Su Changyu wasn't here for Bai Suyue?
Did she get it wrong?
No. Even if it wasn't the case at first, now that he was staying with the Bai family, he may have been plotting something ambitious.
She advised Bai Suyue to stay away from Su Changyu, which was helping Bai Suyue.
"It seems not everyone in Beiyang is mediocre," Su Changyu put down his teacup, leaned back in his chair, and folded his hands. "So, Holy Son of the Ancient Moon Sect, do you have any information about the Source Fire?"
Tang Chuan looked him straight in the eye, "I don't, but you must!"
At first, he wasn't sure. He felt that someone like Su Changyu wouldn't come to the Beiyang easily.
But now, Tang Chuan's intuition told him that Su Changyu must know something.
Otherwise, why would he stay in the ancient city and not go to the Tianxing Cliff?
This proved that Su Changyu already knew it was impossible to find what he was looking for by flipping back and forth like this!
Su Changyu smiled faintly, neither affirming nor denying.
Tang Chuan pressed on, "Speak. Name your conditions, and tell me what you know about the Chaos Annihilation Flame."
Su Changyu shook his head dismissively, "Is the Ancient Sect's Holy Son fool? I'm here for the Source Fire, yet you expect me to provide information?"
With a snort, Su Changyu continued, "You dare set conditions for me? Who do you think you are? When this Holy Son greets you and says a word, it's out of respect for you. Don't think too highly of yourself!"
Chu Xuan was furious. "Su Changyu, you——"
Su Changyu's gaze turned cold, "Do you even have the right to speak here?"
Chu Xuan felt a chill creeping over him as he met Su Changyu's cold stare. He felt his whole body stiffen, unable to move!
Tang Chuan frowned, sensing Su Changyu was playing with fire.
