Outside Heavenly Secrets City, the battle was in chaos, barely maintaining a balance.
Everyone knew that Old Man of Heavenly Secrets was the only variable.
Shenxin and the others naturally hoped he would keep playing both sides while claiming moral high ground. It would be best if he did not kick them while they were down.
But they also knew that Old Man of Heavenly Secrets never rose early without profit. Once something tempted him, the current situation would be completely overturned.
"Benefactor Heavenly Secrets, think this through!"
Shenxin could not help but shout angrily.
At the same time, his vicious gaze shot toward Lin Xuan.
It was not just him. Zhan Taichong, Ji Chen, and the Ancestor of the Extraterritorial also fixed Lin Xuan with killing intent in their eyes.
Unfortunately, Lin Xuan paid them no heed and merely stared at Old Man of Heavenly Secrets.
After a moment of stunned silence, Old Man of Heavenly Secrets came back to his senses. As if he had not heard Shenxin's words at all, he asked, "What secret?"
"Tsk!"
Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes. "Senior, you are not planning to catch a white wolf barehanded, are you? You do not intend to lift a finger?"
The muscles on Old Man of Heavenly Secrets' face twitched. To be honest, that had indeed been what he was thinking just now.
But he certainly could not admit it aloud.
"Nonsense. I merely wish to first confirm whether the secret you speak of is worth this old man taking such a risk for. You know that my Heavenly Secrets Pavilion has never involved itself in—"
"Stop!"
Lin Xuan could not help interrupting Old Man of Heavenly Secrets, rolling his eyes hard.
"It is enough for you to say that in your own heart, old sir.
