Golden Crocodile Douluo's beard trembled slightly. His eyes were bloodshot, and he panted like a bull.
He knew Bibi Dong was telling the truth. Ghost Leopard and Magic Bear were indeed not her direct subordinates, but men Qian Daoliu had assigned to her from the Elder Hall.
That meant this ransom was effectively paying for the Worship Hall's own decision, and the Worship Hall simply had no spare resources to fill this hole now.
Qian Daoliu was even less likely to act personally.
