Chen Xuan did not stop because of the God Slaying Spear's words. Although he did not know that the so-called intelligence born within the God Slaying Spear was actually Demon Ancestor Luo Hou's remnant soul.
Chen Xuan would never forget how the villains in novels and television dramas died when victory was already in their grasp.
Although Chen Xuan did not consider himself a villain, he would never make the mistakes only villains made.
Though he did not continue using the Five-Colored Spear to attack the God Slaying Spear, neither did he withdraw it.
Instead, it continued hovering in midair. The slightest abnormal movement from the God Slaying Spear would prompt an instant attack.
At the same time, Chen Xuan said, "Making a deal with me is simple. From this day forward, submit to me.
"Although that would prevent you from ever taking human form again, at the very least, it would allow you to possess intelligence."
"If I were willing to exchange a treasure of equal value for the chance to take human form, would you agree?"
Chen Xuan could not help but freeze when he heard the God Slaying Spear's words.
What stunned Chen Xuan was not that the God Slaying Spear intended to offer another treasure comparable to itself, but rather its use of the term "I, the venerable one."
