"If I had to say, perhaps only divine beasts of the same level would be qualified to establish a relatively normal alliance with them."
"I see."
Xiao Yan understood at once, and naturally had no other objections.
"In that case, can I take it that you two have accepted the Shang Continent's invitation?"
This was common knowledge and had no real value in itself, so Shang Jun turned the conversation to proper business.
"If it benefits both sides, I imagine there's no need to refuse."
From the looks of it, both sides were very satisfied with the terms the other had offered today, so naturally there was no need to waste time.
"—Only, if I must say it, on top of that, I have one final request."
Having more or less made up her mind, Yao Wan then spoke.
"Please, go ahead."
"For any pills that come from our hands, I hope Shang Jun and the Shang Continent can separate them from those of the Ancient Myriad Grassland, the Pill God Clan, or any other faction, and mark them accordingly. I imagine that in itself would be only a small matter for the Shang Continent, yes?"
The moment she said this, both Xiao Yan and Shang Jun almost immediately understood what Yao Wan meant.
"That is only natural. Under normal circumstances, unless it is the seller's wish, we usually announce the original owner to whom the item belonged. That is also what we merchants ought to do."
"From the looks of it, Young Mistress seems quite concerned about this matter. Are you confident that the Fire Domain's pills will not be inferior to those two great refining factions?"
"Saying that out loud would still be a little too arrogant. It is better to simply look at the results."
