"Ask me a question? Interesting. You actually came to me with a question. Fellow Daoist, do you think that because I haven't attacked you... I'm easy to talk to?"
Tong Chuan frowned slightly, a cold glint in his eyes.
"Do you consider yourself easy to talk to?" Su Shi'er asked calmly, his expression unchanged.
Tong Chuan's gaze swept over Su Shi'er again and again. His aura fluctuated, but he did not rush to attack.
Su Shi'er's calm composure struck him as strange.
After all, he was merely at the early Out of Body stage. He could not possibly stand a chance against Tong Chuan.
Tong Chuan had also destroyed the array Su Shi'er had painstakingly set up.
If Su Shi'er had fled, that would have made sense. Yet he had not left. Instead, he had unhurriedly asked to question him.
Could this man still have something up his sleeve?
The thought made Tong Chuan even more wary.
He spoke again. "What question do you wish to ask, fellow Daoist?"
"Decades ago, Bi Yun Xuan abducted a female cultivator named Shen Miaoyin through Heavenly Capital on Azure Star. I heard that a Demon Race cultivator later took her from Bi Yun Xuan. Which one was it?"
Su Shi'er did not beat around the bush. He put the question directly to Tong Chuan.
At those words, Tong Chuan's face darkened. His gaze sharpened as he looked at Su Shi'er.
"Who... exactly are you?"
Rather than answer, Tong Chuan questioned him in return.
His gaze swept Su Shi'er repeatedly, trying to spot some clue.
"There's a proper order to these things. Shouldn't you answer this old man's question before asking your own?"
Su Shi'er continued to speak, his expression unruffled.
Tong Chuan fell into thought, hesitating over whether to answer Su Shi'er's question.
