Pei Xingchen, who was thinking, was called out by someone and his thoughts were exposed. He couldn't help but pause for a moment.

But this was also within Pei Xingchen's expectations.

Judging from the level shown by Tian San and others, it is unlikely that they would miss such an obvious loophole.

In this way, it would be impossible for Pei Xingchen to fool people.

However, this is not a difficult task for Pei Xingchen. Selling out family information is certainly not a good thing. It is likely to make people feel painfully like they have betrayed their family, but it also depends on the person.

For those who are loyal to the Pei family, if they are truly loyal to the Pei family, then even if they would rather die, they would never agree to trade with Tian San and others.

Since he agreed to trade intelligence with Tian San and others in exchange for his own survival, it proves that Pei Xingchen is not a person who is loyal to the Pei family at all.

His loyalty is only because the bargaining chip for betrayal is not enough.

Now, when it comes to his own life and death, Pei Xingchen doesn't care whether the interests of the Pei family will be harmed.

In his opinion, nothing is more important than his own survival.

Even if the Pei family will suffer heavy losses because of the information he betrayed, so what does it matter? It is enough that his own interests are not harmed.

I would rather die than let my friend die, even so.

So Pei Xingchen did not hesitate too much. After searching in his mind, he immediately decided which piece of information to take for the trade.

Pei Xingchen raised his head and looked at Tian San, giving him a deep look.

"keep your word?"

Tian San smiled faintly and said proudly.

"of course."

"I have never broken a promise since my debut."

"If you can really provide valuable information, then we will trust you this time and spare your life."

Pei Xingchen listened to Tian San's words, blinked, and spoke slowly.

"You should know the reason why Pei Runnian is hostile to you."

Tian San raised his eyebrows.

"Of course I know. Isn't it for the position of the Martial Alliance Deacon?"

"You don't want to trade this information with us, do you?"

Pei Xingchen shook his head.

"Of course not, I just want to confirm whether you know why Pei Runnian is making things difficult for you."

"Now that you know, it's easy to talk about it."

"The information I told you is about the position of the Martial Alliance Deacon."

"You have been suppressed by the Pei family these days. You should have known that it is because of your position as the deacon of the Martial Alliance. But I don't know if you have ever guessed why Pei Runnian did not directly attack you with thunder, but instead chose to use a seemingly harsh but actually very gentle method of banning you?"

Tian San was really interested now and motioned Pei Xingchen to continue.

Pei Xingchen raised the corner of his mouth slightly when he saw this, and said in a deep voice.

"Of course, this is not because Pei Runnian doesn't want to kill you, but because he can't."

"If I kill you, it will be because the time for the Wu League to change its leadership has not yet come. If a Wu League deacon dies unexpectedly, according to the rules of the Wu League, an unlimited challenge will be held to determine the winner."

"The position of the Martial Alliance Deacon has already been watched covetously by many martial arts forces. If we really want to hold an unlimited challenge, who knows how many masters will emerge. Maybe many old monsters will be tempted and come out of retirement."

"After all, after becoming a deacon of the Martial Alliance, it will be much easier to exchange for the secret manuals and elixirs treasured by the Martial Alliance."

"If the same item is exchanged by someone outside the Martial Alliance, it may be as difficult as ascending to heaven. But if it is exchanged by someone within the Martial Alliance, then it will be much easier."

Pei Xingchen glanced at Tian San, and snorted coldly when he saw his slightly disdainful expression.

"You don't need to look like that. The Martial Alliance is the dominant force in the domestic martial arts world. Although it has a lot of mixed people and factions, it has a great reputation but has never been able to form a united force and has been ridiculed by many martial arts forces."

"But the Martial Alliance is, after all, an old martial arts force that has existed for so many years. Its power is deeply rooted, and its profound foundation is beyond the imagination of many people."

"Why do you think those old monsters who have been practicing for decades and have been stuck at the peak of Dark Energy want to join the Martial Alliance? It's simply because the Martial Alliance has what they need and they think it can help them break through to the Transformation Energy."

"Whether it's true or not, the fact that the Martial Alliance can have such an appeal is enough to prove the profound foundation of the Martial Alliance."

"And facing those old monsters, even Pei Runnian doesn't dare to say he can win easily. He is absolutely sure of victory."

"So he did not choose to kill Chu Longtu, but chose to temporarily suppress Chu Longtu without killing him, preparing to delay the time until the Wumeng's general election."

"At the Martial Alliance General Assembly, the term of office of the Martial Alliance Deacons will automatically expire, and the Martial Alliance will elect the next term of Martial Alliance Deacons according to the procedures."

"The Martial Alliance will then determine four candidates, and these four candidates will compete."

"In this way, if Pei Runnian wants to become a deacon of the Martial Alliance, the competition he faces will no longer be an unknown number of opponents with unknown strength, but only three competitors. The pressure is greatly reduced."

"If it were you, would you want to kill Chu Longtu before the Martial Alliance Conference?"

Listening to Pei Xingchen's words, Tian San was slightly dazed, and then he looked at Pei Xingchen intently.

"I have to admit that your information has indeed solved the doubts I have had for a long time."

"But this kind of information is of no value. Even if you don't tell us, we will know it when the Martial Alliance Conference opens."

"So, this isn't the information you're trading with us, is it?"

"If so, then I regret to inform you that you can start thinking of your last words now."

Tian San raised his hand, his palm shaped like an eagle's claw, and was about to attack.

But Pei Xingchen shook his head slightly.

"Of course this is not the information I would use for trading. It's just that this matter is related to the information I really want to trade with you, so I explained it in advance."

"Very good. The next part is the real information I want to trade with you."

Pei Xingchen paused, looked at Tian San and said in a deep voice.

"Aren't you curious about why Pei Runnian doesn't dare to fight with others?"

"He is also a master who has been at the peak of dark energy for many years. Even if his opponents are old monsters, Pei Runnian is no worse than them. Why doesn't he dare to kill Chu Longtu and compete directly with others?"
