"This qualifying token, as far as I know, was obtained by Ruler Lingdu after selling several incredibly powerful treasures and leveraging a significant amount of personal connections to trade for it from others."
"His goal should be to give it to others as a gift… So, he only kept it and didn't activate it."
"Otherwise, if he had died, his ghost mark would have appeared on the token."
The young man spoke carefully, divulging everything he knew without the slightest concealment. He completely repressed all his resentment and thoughts of betrayal.
He knew that such an existence would easily sense even the slightest trace of ill will, potentially leading to his utter ruin.
Hence, he was extremely cautious.
Xu Qing listened to the youth's words and pondered as he looked at the token in front of him.
There was indeed no ghost mark on it.
Xu Qing expressionlessly glanced at the youth and calmly spoke.
"Continue."
