[Actually, the "big shot" had originally intended to wait until Chen Fan survived the tribulation of [qi refining limit-breaking forty-thousandth layer] before having a chat with him.]
[But plans could never keep pace with change. Other matters forced the big shot to leave...]
[Somewhere beyond the reach of observation from the [Supreme True Realm]—]
[The "big shot," shrouded in mist, gazed at Zero, who stood before the big shot wearing the [Infinity Rules Mask],]
[And spoke in the Great Dao's voice with something between a smile and a smirk:]
["May I ask why you suddenly summoned me here, fellow Daoist?"]
[Indeed, at the very instant you finished your tribulation,]
[One invisible mighty power after another suddenly manifested in this unobservable place, as if guided by unseen forces.]
[They allowed the big shot to come here...]
[The "big shot" could have broken free. This influence was negligible.]
[Clearly, whoever wielded it had not intended for this mighty power to affect the "big shot."]
[Instead... it was a signal, telling the big shot to go there!]
[There was no need to think about it. This had to be Zero's doing.]
[In that case, what harm was there in meeting?!]
[Upon hearing the "big shot's" words, Zero spoke expressionlessly in the Great Dao's voice:]
["I'm very curious about your purpose in making a deal with Chen Fan!"]
["Purpose?!"]
[Unexpectedly, the "big shot," shrouded in mist, gave a series of mocking chuckles and spoke disdainfully in the Great Dao's voice:]
["We each get what we need. What purpose is there to speak of?"]
[The meaning was already quite clear: the big shot did not want to answer. To call that an answer...]
[It was nothing more than a few empty platitudes, such as telling Zero—]
["I mean no harm," or something along those lines...]
