Li Su stared blankly for a little while, then shook his head.
It had already been swallowed. Judging by the state of his Heavenly Palace, there was no way he could cough it back up anytime soon. He could only leave it as it was for now.
At worst, he could think of a solution later. If all else failed, he could gather some precious materials and rebuild one.
