Shen Li took notice of his reaction. It was all she needed to confirm her conjecture.

Elder Yi was also closely observing Qingke's expression and could tell that Shen Li was on to something.

"Is that so?" She prodded him. "Speak, what are you not telling us?"

"I can indeed create an inferior version of the Space Breaking Array," Chen Qingke admitted. Shen Li looked slightly triumphant that she was right.

"But there's a catch," Chen Qingke continued with a wry smile. "Only one person will be able to pass through it."

"Only one?" Shen Li frowned immediately.
