Zhang Deming nodded. "It's a bargaining chip, but it's not an even trade.
We help you avert extinction, and in return, you only help us access the trial?
If it were you, would you make a deal like that?"
Qing Danhong hesitated for a moment, then said, "My clan is willing to once again become vassals to the Human Race, to serve as the Upper Immortals' gardeners."
Zhang Deming's expression shifted; he was clearly tempted. Li Shifan's voice transmitted to his ear, "If we really manage to bring them back with us, we should be able to enter the Inner Sect without any conditions, right?"
Although Li Shifan was also tempted, he didn't interrupt. After all, their roles had been set from the beginning.
Zhang Deming was playing the good cop, and he was the bad cop.
Zhang Deming looked at Qing Danhong and said, "Hmm, that sounds a bit more interesting. So, have you figured out the cause of this mutation?"
