Back in Tang, Jiang Dali had acted against the powerful guardians beside Li Jiancheng in order to support Li Shimin. To his surprise, the one guarding Li Jiancheng had been Yin Zhong, the Undying Demigod. The two had fought at the Suo River, and Jiang Dali had ultimately forced him to retreat.
However, the condition for Yin Zhong's retreat and withdrawal of protection from Crown Prince Li Jiancheng had been that Jiang Dali promise to add a Limitless Heart-Turning Pill to the list of treasures requested from the Sacred Dynasty after Li Shimin ascended the throne.
Now, Li Shimin had yet to formally ascend the throne in Tang, and there was still a year and a half until the Sacred Dynasty's once-every-five-years allocation of resources. Thus, Jiang Dali had indeed yet to fulfill what he had promised Yin Zhong.
Yet this ancestor of Imperial Sword Villa, this divine Undying Man of the Tong Clan, for reasons unknown, had now expressed his willingness to help Jiang Dali deal with Di Shitian.
Having the aid of a True Return Realm expert wielding the Divine Weapon Netherworld Sword and possessing an undying body was naturally a wonderful thing. But there were no benefits in this world without cause, and Jiang Dali was no greenhorn who would become ecstatic over a few words.
"Hehehe."
Having lived for over six hundred years, how could Yin Zhong not know how to read people? He clasped his fists toward Jiang Dali and smiled. "Village Lord Jiang, there is no need for suspicion. You are a straightforward man, and this old man will not beat around the bush with you. I possess a rare treasure capable of restraining Phoenix Blood, but after killing your great enemy, I will need to take a portion of the Phoenix Blood."
"Oh?"
