Ning Xiaochuan gave an embarrassed smile. "Holy Maiden, there is no need to be so polite. Driving back the God Devouring Little Rat and scaring off the God Devouring Old Rat was merely a lift of the hand. Holy Maiden, there is no need to take it to heart."
"No! Since I owe you a debt of gratitude, how could I not repay it? If word got out, would outsiders not laugh at our Bright Holy Land for repaying kindness with ingratitude?" The Bright Holy Maiden stood in the hall like a female immortal above the nine heavens, bright-eyed and white-toothed, her long hair swaying, a faint smile in her eyes.
Ning Xiaochuan thought to himself, so the Bright Holy Maiden was also someone unwilling to owe others favors.
He liked people with principles like that.
"Fine! Since that is the case, then Holy Maiden, give me another ten Heaven-Grade Profound Stones!" Ning Xiaochuan said.
If Yue Mingsong truly forged a Heaven-Grade Profound Stone Puppet, Ning Xiaochuan would certainly need a great many Heaven-Grade Profound Stones. Naturally, the more the better.

Now that the great calamity has descended, the Heaven-Grade Profound Stones must be used to activate the Sub-God Array. I cannot give you any more! Why not choose something else?"

He had personally seen the God Devouring Little Rat put hundreds of thousands of Heaven-Grade Profound Stones into the Beast Hide Qiankun Bag. Yet out of hundreds of thousands, they could not spare ten? Ning
