Xu Chunniang understood. Such important news would not be disclosed for free, even to an honored guest of the merchant guild.
Any information related to a fourth-rank sacred item, even if there was only a twenty or thirty percent chance, was an extremely important secret and required an exchange of equal value.
Half an hour later, Xu Chunniang left the merchant guild with an extra scroll of drawings on her.
This scroll was precisely the map of the ancient burial ground that she had purchased from the merchant guild at a high price.
