Misty Rain Tower

Inside the tent, the Great Sovereign of Dantai watched the young man before him with a complex expression.

He didn't doubt the truth of the young man's words; such matters were not difficult to verify.

The benefactor must have really gone to the Western Regions to challenge the Temple Master of the Divine Oracle Temple.

What moved him was how incredibly clever the young man was.

The words just spoken seemed to carry no demands, yet he found himself compelled to offer up the treasure of the Dantai clan.

"My Dantai clan does indeed possess a divine object capable of contending with the Great Brightness Sword," the Great Sovereign of Dantai sighed softly, "Very well, for the safety of our benefactor, I am willing to lend our clan's Elixir of Life Monument to aid him."

Upon hearing this, Li Ziye's face immediately showed gratitude. He stood up and bowed respectfully, "Thank you, Great Sovereign."

"Youth is to be feared indeed!"

The Great Sovereign of Dantai's expression was one of emotion as he said, "Instructor Li, in consideration of this old man's feelings, should you and my daughter Jingyue ever be at life-and-death odds, could you perhaps show mercy just once?"

Li Ziye's eyes narrowed slightly; the promise the elder before him was asking for was no small matter.

Dantai Jingyue was not easy to deal with, and his chances to eliminate her were sure to be few. Any act of mercy could potentially cost him his own life.
