Golden Radiance City, Moonlit Wine House. Marquis of Knowing Fate appeared, took one step, and headed straight for the second floor.
On the second floor, the door to the Room of Light opened, welcoming the honored guest.
A pale glow flashed by. Marquis of Knowing Fate entered, looked at the figure in the room, and said calmly, "Tower Master, let us discuss a transaction."
Moonlit Tower Master set down the scissors in his hand and nodded. "Very well. Red Luan, bring the wine."
"Yes."
Outside the room, Red Luan entered carrying General's Command. She set it on the table, poured wine for them both one by one, then stood quietly to the side.
"Brother Ning, please sit," Moonlit Tower Master said as he stepped forward.
Ning Chen walked to the table and sat down, stating his purpose directly. "I need to borrow the Scroll of Light."
Moonlit Tower Master narrowed his eyes slightly at this. "I am sure Brother Ning knows the rules."
Ning Chen nodded. "Name any condition you wish, Tower Master."
"Avici Hell Palace or the Exquisite Immortal Pagoda," Moonlit Tower Master said evenly.
"Making a deal with Tower Master truly is no easy matter."
As he spoke, rosy light bloomed in Ning Chen's hand. A small pagoda appeared, its powerful aura flooding the entire room.
Moonlit Tower Master raised a hand and took the immortal pagoda. With a sweep of his left hand, the Scroll of Light flew out and landed in Ning Chen's grasp.
"Many thanks."
Ning Chen took the Scroll of Light and rose to leave.
"Wait."
Moonlit Tower Master spoke.
Ning Chen paused and looked at the man before him. "Is there anything else, Tower Master?"
Moonlit Tower Master picked up the wine cup before him. "This wine is General's Command."
Ning Chen froze.
