"...Why do you seem to care so much about this 'old mountain'?"
Shi Ying looked at Ba Ning, his expression tinged with suspicion.
Ba Ning remained composed and replied, "Who wouldn't be curious about 'old mountain' if they knew of it? What does 'old mountain' look like, and who exactly is he? Besides, working with you is not safe! You have already offended those protectors of the Underground City. What if they discover you have ulterior motives for coming to Sishui Prison and come after you? If you can't even defeat them, how can we?"
His words were firm and decisive, and the skepticism in his tone was hardly concealed.
"To be honest, the more you talk, the more I suspect that working with you could lead to my death. I'm still young, and I don't want to die before my time. If we could bring in 'old mountain'... Having 'old mountain' around should add an extra layer of insurance, right?"
