Chapter 1960

After brief consideration, Chen Xuan rolled out of bed and left the room. Earlier that day, while in the second layer of the Shuiyue Cave Heaven, he had encountered a mysterious figure imprisoned by the Mi family. This man was named Xiao He. Throughout their conversation, Xiao He had kept his identity hidden. However, after Chen Xuan displayed a flicker of celestial flame, Xiao He decided to propose a deal: if Chen Xuan promised to rescue him, he would reveal how to break the restrictions guarding the highest pavilion in Bixu Dock. Chen Xuan had not agreed lightly, as he had no way of knowing whether Xiao He was telling the truth. To earn his trust, Xiao He proposed a compromise: he would first provide the methods to break the initial layers of restrictions. Once Chen Xuan scouted the area and verified that the methods worked, he would return to liberate Xiao He in exchange for the secret to breaking the final layer.
