Hearing this, the Nine Pce Main God was even more shocked. He could no longer keep hisposure; he walked straight up to Su Yang and said in a deep voice, "You know about that woman? What else do you know?"
"I don''t know that much…" Su Yang smiled faintly. "I only happened to hear a few things, that''s all."
"Answer me honestly!" the Nine Pce Main God said in a low voice. "Otherwise, don''t me me for getting rough with you!"
"And what if you do get rough with me?" Su Yang nced at the five people beside him andughed. "You''re all already nning to kill me. What do you think I''d still be afraid of?"
The Nine Pce Main God''s face turned cold. He really was about to make a move. But seeing how Su Yang didn''t intend to defend himself in the slightest, he didn''t dare act rashly anymore.
Just as Su Yang had said, the Nine Pce Main God and the others were already prepared to kill him. At this point, using torture to threaten Su Yang had lost all meaning.
"You answer my questions, and I''ll give you Spiritual Source, enough Spiritual Source," the Nine Pce Main God said solemnly. "I guarantee you can establish your own main city in the Land of Chaos, build your own power, and be one of the leaders of the Land of Chaos!"
"Is that so?" Su Yang smiled lightly. "I can''t even get out of this ce. What''s the point of you offering me those terms?"
"As long as you cooperate with me, I guarantee you can walk out of this wormhole!" the Nine Pce Main God said immediately.
"Wormhole!?" Su Yang was surprised. "What wormhole?"
The Nine Pce Main God''s expression turned a bit ugly. He had gotten too anxious just now—how could he have even blurted out the name of this passage?
Seeing the Nine Pce Main God remain silent, Su Yang drawled, "That woman brought a very important item with her. The Red Leaf God nearly lost her life over it. Don''t you want to know what was going on there?"
A sharp light shed in the Nine Pce Main God''s eyes. The matter of Su Yang''s mother was extremely important to them—more important even than what he was currently doing. So right now, he really wanted to know what had actually happened in all this.
However, judging from Su Yang''s attitude, getting these secrets out of him would not be easy.
After a brief silence, the Nine Pce Main God said in a low voice, "You don''t need to know that much. All you need to know is that I can get you out of here."
"Heh, I''m just this curious as a person. I insist on knowing that much," Su Yang said. "Come on then, exin—what is a wormhole?"
"You…" The Nine Pce Main God was furious and was just about to explode when Su Yang suddenly stepped forward, lifting his neck up. "Go on, kill me. Kill me and you won''t have to tell me anything, and you won''t have to stay mad either. So convenient. Kill me!"
The Nine Pce Main God was so angry he almost spat blood. In the end, he still forcibly suppressed his rage and shoved the suffocating fury in his chest back down.
"A wormhole is a tunnel bored out by a boring insect," the Nine Pce Main God said in a deep voice.
"That exnation doesn''t mean much," Su Yang said. "If you really don''t want to talk, then forget it. Anyway, about that woman and the Red Leaf God, I wasn''t nning to say much either."
The Nine Pce Main God''s face flushed red with anger. He gritted his teeth and stayed silent for a long while before finally lowering his voice. "That boring insect is a boring insect of the World Tree, and its power is against the heavens. It burrowed across the Land of Chaos and dug out a passage like this—that''s where we are now. The part where it bored into the trunk and made it bulge—that''s the hill and canyon you saw outside."
"So that''s how it is!" Su Yang felt dumbfounded. The World Tree was already that heaven-defying, and it actually had wood-boring insects? Just how heaven-defying were these insects supposed to be?
Being able to dig out such a passage within Chaos itself showed how powerful that boring insect was. So this hill-canyon was left behind by the boring insect, and this tunnel was dug by it as well. No wonder Su Yang hadn''te into contact with Chaos after entering.
Moreover, the tunnel the boring insect excavated wasn''t connected to the branches of the World Tree, only to the main trunk. In other words, it was impossible to enter such a passage from a branch; you could onlye in through the main trunk.
"Since it''s a passage left by the boring insect, then why is it one-way only?" Su Yang asked. "Why can youe in but not get out?"
"Because the entrance is guarded by a Divine Artifact…" the Nine Pce Main God said. "Once you pass through this passage, if you try to go back, you''ll be blocked by that Divine Artifact. You simply can''t get in!"
"A Divine Artifact?" Su Yang asked in surprise. "Whose Divine Artifact? Who set it up?"
The Nine Pce Main God hesitated for a moment, then finally said in a deep voice, "It was left behind in Ancient Times by a big figure among my Guardian Gods. Only the Guardian Gods know the secret of these passages. Even the Heavenly Warriors don''t know. This is a secret passage belonging to us Guardian Gods."
Su Yang looked at the Nine Pce Main God and could tell he wasn''t lying. Or rather, this Nine Pce Main God wasn''t the type who was good at lying. Everything he told Su Yang was the truth. Of course, the main reason he dared to be so frank was that he believed Su Yang was as good as dead. The six of them dealing with Su Yang was a trivial matter. As long as they got the secrets they wanted out of him, they would kill Su Yang immediately, ensuring none of this information leaked out.
"So you''re saying you Guardian Gods have a way to pass through this passage and go back?" Su Yang asked.
The Nine Pce Main God nodded slowly. As if seeing what Su Yang was thinking, he immediately added, "But that''s not possible right now. To pass through this passage, you need the Token of an Ancient Guardian God. But I… I didn''t bring that Token when I came out!"
Noticing the hesitation in the Nine Pce Main God''s words, Su Yang couldn''t help butugh inwardly. This Nine Pce Main God truly wasn''t good at lying. Thatst sentence of his was obviously a lie.
"You didn''t bring one, or you don''t have one?" Su Yang asked with a faint smile.
The Nine Pce Main God frowned deeply and stayed silent for quite a while before finally gritting his teeth and saying, "Once we get out of here, I can get a Token and send you back into the main trunk. You don''t need to worry about that."
"Is that so?" Su Yang smiled lightly. "Then where does this passage lead?"
The Nine Pce Main God gave Su Yang a look and said in a deep voice, "I''ve answered this many of your questions. Shouldn''t you answer mine now?"
"I''ll ask a few more. Once I''m done, I''ll tell you everything I know," Su Yang replied immediately.
"You think I''ll believe what you say?" the Nine Pce Main God said coldly.
"If you don''t believe me, there''s nothing I can do," Su Yang said with a shrug. "Or you can just kill me instead?"
The Nine Pce Main God''s brows knit tightly together. He really cared about Su Yang''s mother and the Red Leaf God. Now that he''d finally gotten a lead, he truly wanted to know this information.
