Ling Chen was slightly stunned, then couldn't help but smile, saying,
“Dreams and reality are opposites.”
“Actually, many years ago, Sister Fang Si said that you and I would interact because I am a fierce bandit and you are a Imperial Dragon Guard!”
Chen Shu’s expression was calm, with a hint of a sarcastic smile, he said,
“She predicted correctly, but our roles have been swapped.”
“I really didn’t want to do this…”
Ling Chen sighed, saying, “If I didn’t have a mission to bear, I would truly want to integrate into this, to become an Imperial Dragon Guard protecting humanity!”
“At this point, shouldn’t you stop being so high-minded? Are you trying to disgust me here?”
Chen Shu said with mockery,
“Because of you, how many people have died in our country, don’t you have any idea?”
“Sigh…”
Ling Chen shook his head, saying, “It’s just different stances, I’m actually helpless.”
“Explaining to me is useless.”
“I’m not asking for a chance from you, I just want to say what’s on my mind.”
Ling Chen sighed, saying,
“You haven’t made a move yet, you’re also trying to stall for time, right?”
“…”
Chen Shu remained silent, not expecting to be seen through so easily, but he wasn’t too surprised.
“We can have a good talk.”
Ling Chen said lightly, “Our talents can be considered the first and second in the world, there shouldn’t be any barriers between us, right?”
“We can talk.”
Chen Shu also sat down calmly and said, “First, return Fang Si to me!”
“Alright! I’ll give her to you!”
Ling Chen waved his right hand, and with a thunderous roar from the sky, a contract spirit with lightning all over its body, a human-faced bird-bodied creature, flew down.
And in its sharp claws, there was a sleeping human girl.
The contract spirit looked down at Chen Shu and simultaneously released Fang Si from its grip, directly throwing her down.
Spatial Rabbit instantly teleported and caught Fang Si, while remaining vigilant of Ling Chen.
However, to Chen Shu’s surprise, the other party did not offer any resistance.
He felt Fang Si’s aura and confirmed that she was not in life-threatening danger before letting out a sigh of relief.
“What did you do to her?”
Chen Shu narrowed his eyes, understanding that Ling Chen would not let him rescue Fang Si so easily.
“She is now like the out-of-control individuals in our country; there is my soul power in her mind.”
Ling Chen smiled faintly, saying, “As long as my mind moves, her mind will collapse on the spot, and then even gods and buddhas cannot save her!”
Upon hearing this, Chen Shu’s eyes turned cold, and killing intent involuntarily spread from him.
“Don’t get agitated, I’m only doing this to prevent you from running away on the spot.”
Ling Chen smiled faintly, saying, “After all, with your ability, even Beast Emperors can’t keep you, and neither can I.”
“Can we talk now?”
“Okay.”
Chen Shu carefully placed Fang Si into Xiao Huang’s mouth, then turned to face Ling Chen.
“You must have questions too, right? As long as I know, I can answer them all!”
“Really?”
“Of course, between the two of us, only one can leave this continent!”
Ling Chen said calmly, “When people die, all secrets lose their meaning. Of course, I will tell you everything I know, but I also hope you can resolve my doubts!”
“As long as I can answer, I will!”
Chen Shu nodded and asked first,
“What is your Beast Taming level?!”
“King level two stars!”
“Hmm?”
Chen Shu was slightly stunned and said, “King level two stars can control King level two stars, are you kidding me?”
“My fifth contract spirit is a bit special.”
Ling Chen explained, “It has some relation to a fallen legend…”
“Heavenly Mandate Ancient Emperor?!”
Chen Shu narrowed his eyes and immediately made a guess.
“Eh? You know?”
Ling Chen was a little surprised, then said, “But given your identity, it’s normal for you to know the secrets of that year.”
Seeing Ling Chen’s reaction, Chen Shu instantly knew his guess was correct.
He now understood why the old man felt that power was somewhat familiar, while others had no impression at all.
After all, that was already eight hundred years ago!
Ling Chen nodded, then said,
“It is of the same race as the Ancient Emperor’s strongest contract spirit, and it inherited part of the Ancient Emperor’s power. This is also why I can control so many people, and even disguise my strength in front of the old man.”
“Ancient Emperor’s power? Your status within the Church is not low, is it?”
“Future Pope!”
Ling Chen said lightly, “And the Pope with the greatest hope of breaking through to Legendary!”
“Can people from your Church break through to Legendary?”
Chen Shu was slightly stunned and said, “As far as I know, although your progress is rapid, your only flaw is that you cannot break through to Legendary, right?”
“That is them!”
Ling Chen said faintly, “I naturally have my own methods!”
“What methods?”
“You are asking too much!”
Ling Chen frowned and said, “According to the rules, it’s my turn to ask, right?”
“Okay.”
Chen Shu was slightly stunned, then nodded.
“What exactly is going on with your talent?!”
Ling Chen asked instantly, appearing impatient, clearly having been troubled by this for many years.
“What?”
“Your contract spirit’s potential rating is low, and your Beast Taming talent is mediocre, but why have you been able to reach this point?”
Ling Chen narrowed his eyes and said, “There seems to be an unknown power within you, constantly helping you?”
“That’s right.”
Chen Shu nodded, saying,
“It allows me to receive all-round improvements. You can understand it as a special talent!”
He didn’t know how to explain the system, but comparing it to talent was not a problem, after all, he was the only one in the world to possess it.
“All-round improvements?”
“That’s right, including Beast Taming power, contract spirit attributes, skills, and even bloodline evolution!”
Chen Shu did not hide anything.
“Your divine skills came from this, right?”
Ling Chen suddenly realized, finally understanding why a slime and a husky could comprehend such heaven-defying things…
Chen Shu nodded, then said, “You’ve already asked four questions, it’s my turn now, right?”
“???”
Ling Chen was slightly stunned, when did I ask four questions?
“Don’t make that face, it’s really my turn.”
Chen Shu said lightly, “What is your purpose for causing the unrest?”
Ling Chen hesitated for a moment, then said,
“Let the ferocious beasts break through humanity’s defense line, then the Church can take the opportunity to act, collecting the corpses of contract spirits to devour and strengthen the Church’s power.”
Chen Shu’s eyes turned cold, he nodded, and then said,
“The previous escort mission, our teleportation array was destroyed by the Shark Emperor, was that also you who informed them?”
“Yes!”
Ling Chen nodded, “Among the people responsible for the mission, two were King level and under my control, so of course I knew the location of the teleportation array.”
“As expected!”
Chen Shu’s eyes narrowed. At the time, everyone suspected there was an inside informant, but they could never find him.
As the two exchanged questions and answers, time quietly passed,
And the night slowly descended…
