After quietly meeting Su Chan's gaze for a moment, Xu Taiping shook his head and said:
"I did have some questions, but I think I've already found some answers."
Xu Taiping had originally wanted to ask Su Chan why he had betrayed Qingxuan and joined the Nine Abysses back then, but judging from their conversation just now, it clearly had something to do with his Dao-Seeking Heart.
So Xu Taiping could not be bothered to waste any more words on him.
Su Chan naturally heard what Xu Taiping was implying.
Yet his expression remained composed, as though none of what Xu Taiping had said had anything to do with him.
"Eldest Brother."
Just then, Little Monkey Ping'an suddenly leaped onto Xu Taiping's shoulder.
With a trace of unease in his expression, Ping'an said:
"Brother Bai Yu saw people from the Nine Prefectures coming this way."
Xu Taiping gently patted Ping'an's head and said:
"I know."
Across from him, Su Chan once again asked Xu Taiping with a smile:
"Junior Brother, will you make this deal or not?"
Su Chan added:
"Wagering your one life against the lives of all the disciples of the Azure Profound Sect's Sixth Peak-you won't lose out."
Fairy Lingyue also turned her gaze toward Xu Taiping and said with some concern:
"Taiping, think this through carefully."
Xu Taiping glanced at Fairy Lingyue, then shook his head with a smile.
"Sister Lingyue, you know me."
Unlike his former self, Xu Taiping, who had undergone several trials of life and death, had long since learned to face his true heart.
So when faced with a choice like this, he would not hesitate at all.
Fairy Lingyue merely nodded silently and said nothing more.
Xu Taiping lowered his head and considered it carefully before looking up at Su Chan.
