"Perfect. I couldn't find even the slightest reason to refute it."
"Since that's the case, then let's cooperate."
Li Yun made a small joke and went with the flow, agreeing at once.
In truth, he did not believe for a moment that Dream Ancestor had proposed this cooperation merely because of Martial Ancestor Chen Jiuxu's judgment.
