Chen Mo didn't want to offend anyone. From the moment he entered the Ancient Ruins, he hadn't actively made enemies, always dodging if he could, avoiding when possible, keeping a low profile and drawing no attention.
But he never expected that this attitude of "not competing" would make him a target all the same.
Asking him to test the waters was no different than sending him to risk his life.
The other party clearly wanted him dead, so naturally, he wouldn't pretend anymore.
As for offending Bai Po and the Immortal Pavilion?
They already wanted him dead—what difference did offending them make?
But as soon as these words left his mouth, the entire crowd erupted in astonishment.
Huang Lingling and Huang Su looked at Chen Mo with faces full of surprise.
Feng Xuan, after a momentary daze, showed a look of gloating schadenfreude.
