Four people stood in what looked like an ordinary guestroom.

By the window, there was a man in a black robe. At the table in the middle were several young people wrapped in gauze. A man and a woman were watching them from the shadows.

However, no one noticed them.

Jiang Hao was quite surprised. This was Hong Yuye’s doing. Even when they stood in the room in front of everyone, no one could see them.

He wondered if Hong Yuye used the same method to visit him.

But his perception was not bad, and they both had the Heaven Extinction Gu Poison. When they got close to each other, they were able to sense it.

“We’re not friends yet, but we can be,” said Chi Tian said.

“What do you want to talk about, then?” Chu Chuan asked as he took a step back.

Jiang Hao saw that he was trying to get closer to the window. He was attempting to escape.

“Is it true that Chu Jie from the Bright Moon Sect is your childhood friend?” Chi Tian asked.

“Childhood friend?” Chu Chuan looked puzzled and then shook his head.

“Senior, are you mistaken? At most, we’re just from the same hometown.”

“I see… but I heard that you have a very close relations.h.i.+p with her. You even spent all your spirit stones to buy her a gift,” said Chi Tian. His tone suddenly turned hostile. “But they insulted you. They called you a country b.u.mpkin and took your hard-earned spirit stones. Even Chu Jie didn’t speak up for you, did she? Doesn’t she know your situation? Doesn’t she know that in your sect, you’re just an ordinary disciple? Doesn’t she know you only earn a few spirit stones a month? Does such a young woman deserve the gift that you bought her with all your spirit stones?”

Chu Chuan lowered his head. The words stung him.

“She is the Bright Moon Sect’s prodigy. She’s different from you. She no longer cares about you. Perhaps, in her heart, you’re no longer worthy of her,” Chi Tian said.

“So?” Chu Chuan asked.

“I can help you bring her down from her pedestal. I can help you make her suffer, and then you can go and comfort her. Women are at their most vulnerable when they’re down, and that’s the best time to win their hearts,” Chi Tian said.

Chu Chuan fell silent for a long time. ‘What if I refuse?”

“Then we can’t be friends, but we won’t be enemies either. I’ll just turn around and leave. But you should think carefully. This is your only chance. If you don’t seize it, there won’t be anyone in this world who will lift a finger to help you. No one will understand you,” Chi Tian said.

“Why are you trying to help me?” Chu Chuan asked. “Because we want to, that’s all,” Chi Tian said.

“We?” Chu Chuan was puzzled.

“Yes. You can trust our strength,” Chi Tian said.

Chu Chuan looked at him. He was at the window now. He was searching for an opening to flee.

“If I agree, what would I need to do?” he asked.

“It’s very simple. You just have to carry something with you and wait for our instructions…” Chi Tian hadn’t finished speaking when Chu Chuan moved. He used his strongest force to hit the window.

With a bang, Chu Chuan bounced back.

Looking at Chu Chuan on the ground, Chi Tian sighed. “It seems you don’t trust me.”

“Why should I trust you? Who even are you?” Since he couldn’t escape, Chu Chuan did away with the pretense.

“Does it really matter who I am? When you were insulted and pushed around, didn’t you wish for someone to come to your aid? Do you really need to know who I am to accept my help?” Chi Tian asked.

“Help me with what?” Chu Chuan looked at him.

“Would Chu Jie have taken you to buy something you couldn’t afford if it wasn’t just to humiliate you and show you your place?” Chi Tian asked.

“That’s true… Chu Jie did take me to a shop where I couldn’t afford anything. I couldn’t even lift my head because of embarra.s.sment,” said Chu Chuan.

“Isn’t that just it?” Chi Tian said.

Chu Chuan shook his head. “I understand that everyone pities me, but I don’t want pity. My senior brother did warn me. He explained everything to me so that I would be prepared before coming here. So, I understand that… things change. It might not be as you would imagine them to be. And you can only truly understand it after you experience it. The answer is clear to me now, more than it is to you, it seems.”

“What about the humiliation in that arena? Was that fake too?” Chi Tian asked.

Jiang Hao saw that he was trying to get closer to the window. He was attempting to escape.

“It was real, ana 1 reit lt. many people mocKea me. 1 rememDer all or It very clearly. But I won’t be discouraged by it. I will fight for it, and one day, I will take back my dignity from them. I will surpa.s.s them and make them understand that today’s humiliation will fall on them as well. No one should bully the poor or the weak.” Chu Chuan’s eyes burned with determination.

“And why would I bring down Chu Jie from her pedestal? I want to surpa.s.s her on her pedestal,” he said.

Chi Tian was stunned. He felt that this child was ignorant and foolish, even arrogant.

But he was deeply moved by Chu Chuan’s determination.

It seemed to remind him of his past. In the end, he didn’t say anything and turned to leave.

Jiang Hao glanced at Chu Chuan and felt it was time to let him go.

Chu Chuan had stirred his Immortal Heart. In the future, he would definitely attract the attention of many powerful people.

The Cliff of Broken Hearts shouldn’t hold him back.

After that, he left and caught up with Chi Tian.

“Are you going to just give up?” Jiang Hao caught up to him.

“Who are you?” Chi Tian stepped back.

He stared at the person in front of him. ‘Late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm?’

The person seemed dangerous.

“You don’t need to concern yourself with who I am. I’m just curious why you gave up on Chu Chuan just like that. I don’t think The End of All Things would look down on him so much,” Jiang Hao said.

When he heard the name of the organization he belonged to, Chi Tian was stunned.

He thought of fleeing from there.

Once the information was leaked, he would undoubtedly face death. The Bright Moon Sect was currently trying to eliminate them everywhere they went. Getting close to the Bright Moon Sect was extremely dangerous.

“No need to run. With your Golden Core Realm cultivation, you can’t escape anyway,” Jiang Hao calmly said.

He had already mobilized all his power to prevent the person in front of him from fleeing or ending himself.

People from The End of All Things were capable of anything, so he couldn’t be careless.

“What do you want?” Chi Tian asked.

“I just want to know why you spared Chu Chuan,” Jiang Hao said.

He was genuinely curious. He could have been used to harm Chu Jie.

“There’s no reason for it. Foolish and ignorant people like him have no value,” Chi Tian said.

“It seems like you don’t really like talking about this. Well then, I’ll change the topic. Is the Earth Extreme Heart devouring Pearl on you?” Jiang Hao stared at him.

“I don’t understand what you’re talking about. What pearl?” Chi Tian appeared completely bewildered.

Jiang Hao whispered, “Let’s make a deal. If you cooperate, I can let you go..”
