"It looks like you've thought it through, but you always seem to spend very little time thinking. Do you have some way of accelerating your thoughts?"
Chi Xiao's question struck at the heart of the matter. Many people had never realized the Tranquil State existed.

"Just what?"
Xu Le frowned.
"It's just that Chi Yu's very existence is a threat, isn't it? Even
