"Then it's settled!"
Qin Shaofeng had acted indifferent just now, but in truth, he had been nervous to death.
He had expected the two of them to be able to suppress the Heavenly Void Worms, but he had never imagined their suppression would be so powerful.
Moreover, he had given them the God Slaying Thunder.
If Ximen Li truly wanted to kill him, he would likely be dead beyond doubt.
Under such circumstances, he only had three bargaining chips. The first was the situation here. Without his guidance, the two would only be wasting time and leaving hidden dangers for themselves.
