Chapter 316 - 317: Intelligence
Thus, the three heads of the creature staged an internal conflict right before Mu Can’s eyes, leaving him utterly dumbstruck. Eventually, the middle head capitulated under the siege of the heads on left and right.
"You can ask, as long as the questions do not break the rules, I’ll answer them," said the middle head of the three-headed lion, sounding dejected.
If it weren’t for the fact that the young man’s strength was excessively terrifying, it would be loathsome for it to engage in battle without showing some guts.
After all, it’s hard to obstruct someone with superior ability, especially a young Intermediate Martial Saint like him; an ordinary Gatekeeper simply couldn’t stop him.
Given the situation, it preferred not to fight, but Mu Can’s requests were indeed a bit over the top. Usually, for those facing the three-headed lion, it would cost them a painful price to pass, and how the tables have turned, the lion never anticipated their turn would come.
But from past experiences, every Intermediate Martial Saint who came before had, at the minimum, passed through two trials.
"Oh? So I can really ask? What about your principles, then? If I’m not mistaken, you should be a Gatekeeper, correct? Is it really okay to divulge secrets like that?" Mu Can was only tentatively asking and did not expect that the three-headed lion would actually be a cowardly lion, deciding to answer his query.
"Don’t take this too far," upon hearing Mu Can’s words, the heads on both sides stayed quiet, but the middle head seemed like it was about to explode.
"Alright, alright, I’ll ask quickly, and you answer quickly. I’m in a hurry to move on." Mu Can did not know about the others and assumed all Gatekeepers were as easy to talk to.
