Bai Zihan did not respond immediately.
Chong Sheng's words lingered in the air, heavy with intent.
Bai Zihan's gaze lowered slightly.
Not toward Chong Sheng, but somewhere else.
The System Rewards Section.
His eyes scanned it briefly.
(Still nothing?)
A faint thought passed through his mind.
It seemed like he would need to kill Chong Sheng to obtain any sort of acknowledgment from the System.
He lifted his eyes again, back to Chong Sheng.
The latter was still speaking.
"…I can help you understand the Western Region in ways no one else can."
"…people like Qin Lingxiao don't act without layers of preparation—"
Bai Zihan listened calmly.
And he did not deny it.
Chong Sheng was right.
A former Demonic Emperor.
A man who once ruled over countless demonic cultivators.
Someone who had stood at the peak of the Western Region.
If there was anyone useful against forces from those regions—
It would be him!
(He would be an asset.)
Bai Zihan acknowledged that.
