Chapter 144 is clearly telling you that you're useless, all I want is fire.

"Oh?" The voice came again, and Lao Da seemed somewhat surprised: "You found a clue? Tell me about it."
I've always wondered why you, with such immense power, just idly watch and use us for amusement, especially since we've never died. You always manage to save us when we're about to die.
"Isn't this normal? Why would I want you dead? There's no benefit in it." The prison warden said disdainfully.
"No," Jiang Shaotian shook his head, "We won't die. This isn't real; we can't die. You'll always save us to prevent this from being discovered."
"Like you said, I don't deny it, but what's the purpose? There has to be one."
"I want to escape," Jiang Shaotian said.
This caused the twisting space to pause for a moment, and Lao Da seemed to be stunned.
"You're trapped here too, how pathetic. How could I not have imagined that you weren't the masters of this place at all, but were trapped because of your greed? We're the same, and so are you. And the you here isn't the real you; the real you has fallen into a deep sleep."
"Yes, you're right," said the prisoner, acknowledging the truth.
Jiang Shaotian was somewhat surprised that they had admitted it so easily. He had thought the prison would deny it, and he himself was not sure if it was true or just a hoax. He didn't expect it to actually come out.
"Being trapped is a fact, but greed is not, at least not me. You can ask the other person what he thinks," the prison warden said, appearing quite magnanimous.
He didn't mind being exposed anyway; he'd been here for thousands of years.
"So you don't know how to leave either."
"Hmm, I don't know. You'll have to find your own way to leave. You might find it, but I never will. That person can leave too, but I can't. I've said that before."
"You didn't tell me that." Jiang Shaotian retorted, then paused slightly, realizing what he meant, and questioned, "Someone came to ask you before me, and you told them everything?"
"Yes."
Jiang Shaotian narrowed his eyes. This was a big deal. Who was that person?
They've been searching here for a long time, and what he said is only half true; the other half is nonsense.
It's frightening to think that someone knows so much but keeps quiet and keeps it all to themselves; they're probably not a good person.
Jiang Shaotian had already classified this person as a dangerous element. He wanted to ask who it was, but Lao Da seemed to see through his thoughts and said, "I don't know who it is either. I don't recognize him. But I can tell you that he didn't go through the so-called dark time when he came in. He just walked straight in."
"He found me first, and then he found the other party. He didn't find out through investigation; he already knew."
Lao laughed loudly, feeling that this ancient tomb was coming to an end, and the person who found him was a warning, indicating that this place would not exist for long.
It's unclear whether that person destroyed this place, since another interesting person has entered.
Bifang's inherited flame is very interesting. Although strength is paramount here, it is somewhat different because it is immortal.
Therefore, the person who possesses the inherited flame of Bifang has great potential.
Is there anything else? I'm actually quite busy. Things are changing so fast these days, I'm finding it hard to keep up with the people online.
"There's one more thing, about the competition."
"That thing? Just wait for their notification. It seems he wants to get involved in your affairs," Lao Da replied, adding that he could tell Jiang Shaotian about the competition.
"Understood," Jiang Shaotian said, preparing to leave. He had nothing more to ask if he stayed.
Lord Wu'an is quite easy to talk to. If Jiang Shaotian is right, he will enthusiastically tell you. If he is wrong, he will say he is wrong, but he will not tell you the truth.
As Jiang Shaotian walked to the door, he suddenly turned back and said, "Spend less time online; that stuff is no good."
Lao laughed twice, ignoring Jiang Shaotian's advice, and continued surfing the internet.
After returning to his residence, Jiang Shaotian told everyone what he knew, and he would share this information with others once it was confirmed.
Many hands make light work; if he wanted to die, he wouldn't be able to find a way to leave on his own.
"Interesting, it really is an illusion. So what do we do next?"
"What else can we do? Even if we know, what can we do? We have no way to act. We don't even know what to do. Let's just wait. Maybe we'll get some clues when the competition starts," Xu Sheng said, lying down on the bed.
Although this sounds somewhat self-deprecating, it's the truth. There's nothing we can do; the lack of action is the most frustrating thing.
"Where's Su Ming?" Jiang Shaotian looked around and saw that the main members were all there, but Su Ming was nowhere to be seen.
"He went out, saying he was going to find someone, Bai Fang's side," Mu Bai replied.
Shortly after Jiang Shaotian left, Su Ming also went out.
"I see." Jiang Shaotian murmured. Bai Fang had probably gone to find Jiang Shaoxu.
He knew that Su Ming was Jiang Shaoxu's ex-boyfriend, but that was all he knew. He wasn't gossipy and didn't know much about such things.
Because of the two camps, Jiang Shaoxu rarely came here. It wasn't that she didn't want to, but there were always some people who were different from normal people. They liked to cause trouble and were easy targets for criticism. To avoid trouble, they had much less contact with each other.
In the territory of the White side, Su Ming walked on the road. He did not come out to look for Jiang Shaoxu. Since he was already here, he could see Jiang Shaoxu at any time.
Su Ming was called over by someone else.
A voice suddenly appeared in his mind, beckoning him to come over. It wasn't the kind of sound transmission that he could distinguish since he was a sound mage himself.
The feeling wasn't human; it was more like some kind of talking demon, probably because of the size of the prison here.
"Can I speak now? I've been away from the Red Team all along," Su Ming cried out in his mind.
Soon, a sound came from over.
"I'm doing fine here, would you like to join our camp?" Bai Laoda said.
"Why? I'm just a high-level mage, and I just got in. There's no point in you trying to win me over," Su Ming retorted.
"Trying to win you over is useless. What I want isn't you, but your flame. If I'm not mistaken, that thing is Bifang's flame. It's extremely useful to me and can be an important tool for my escape," Lao Da said.
This left Su Ming speechless. He was really honest, answering exactly what was said without a single lie, clearly stating that he was useless and only cared about the fire.
But does this prisoner also want to leave?
Su Ming had thought that the two prisoners could leave at any time, but now it seemed that things were a little different.
