Su Chengyu immediately sensed something amiss upon hearing this and spoke, "Senior, you had already planned to act against the Luo Clan, hadn't you?"
Chaitov did not deny it, stroking his beard as he said, "This way, the transaction becomes fair."
Even without the transaction, both parties were intending to do what they inevitably would have done. In this light, the deal indeed seemed reasonable.
Still feeling something was not quite right, Su Chengyu suddenly realized something and asked, "Senior, is there something preventing you from leaving Linbei City?"
Chaitov nodded, "The situation in the Bei Luo Empire is different from your Xia Country. The Land Immortals of the Bei Luo Empire are even less in control of their own destinies, and since I turned down the invitation from the Imperial Court in the past, their surveillance on me has been even tighter. They would never allow me to cross the border so easily."
