A figure suddenly appeared a hundred miles from Bishui Sect, landing beside a cave. The moment he touched down, he staggered and nearly lost his footing.
Inside the cave, a stone served as a table, and a teapot hissed as it steamed.
A large head slowly turned around. Their gazes met, and that single glance seemed to span ten thousand years...
The newcomer was Ji Wen, who had just escaped Bishui Sect.
The man inside the cave was none other than Du Jin, the Du Jin who had clashed with Lin Su on the Southern Kingdom battlefield.
"Just now, I was worried you would refuse to listen to me!" Du Jin raised his hand and passed a cup of tea to Ji Wen.
Ji Wen took it and let out a long breath. "By all reason, I truly should not have listened to you. But strangely enough, I still did... How did you know he had such a terrifying trump card left?"
"Jin is neither a Cultivator nor a man of the Literary Way, and I know nothing whatsoever about methods of killing. But in any contest, there is an immutable law."
"Speak!"
Du Jin said, "When your trump card lies beyond your opponent's judgment, danger is at its greatest!"
What did that mean?
In a contest between two sides, each side had trump cards!
Once you could predict your opponent's trump card, you had already won more than half the contest. But once your own trump card was known to the opponent, it meant utter collapse! This theory applied to every situation, especially when facing a master of the wisdom path who left no drop unsealed. Once they had guessed your trump card, everything that followed would go wrong!
What was their side's trump card?
An Origin Heaven expert!
