"..."
Chen Qiu pondered for a moment, then suddenly smiled and looked towards Liu Zide, "This is our first meeting, and you're already asking me for fifteen thousand Spirit Stones. You really have the nerve to ask."
"However, I think you're quite imaginative."
"The fifteen thousand Spirit Stones are yours, and this Sound Transmission Ring too."
"Let's not talk about ten percent or five percent anymore. Let's go with the ten percent you mentioned. I'll give you ten percent."
"I hope you won't disappoint me."
...
Very soon.
Chen Qiu dispelled the soundproofing charm and, taking Liu Zide with him, returned to the Deserted Forest. He looked towards the scholar and softly said, "It's going to be hard on you these two days following him. Temporarily obey his commands, do whatever he tells you."
"And this man."
He glanced indifferently at the robust and burly man on the ground, "Since you said not to kill him, then we won't kill him."
