"Master Wu Xin, you crafty bastard," Li Chen muttered with a smirk.

After much deliberation, Li Chen finally discerned Master Wu Xin's intention, a truly crafty one.

Master Wu Xin had intentionally made Li Chen aware of his interest in the location where Li Chen had found all those spiritual plants, indicating how crucial it was to him. This way, Li Chen would likely realize its importance and, out of excitement, lead them directly to the location.

Li Chen couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine as he finally unraveled the scheme. Had he overlooked it, he would have truly fallen into Master Wu Xin's trap.

Even though he had not uncovered any ancient ruin or anything within the Silverhead spider's nest, it did not mean Li Chen had given up. If ancient ruins were so easily discovered, they would not hold such significance.
