"This is the payment. I have one condition: don't tell anyone I came here. Otherwise, you know the consequences."
Ye Lin tossed a Spatial Ring to Shang Gong, then shot him a cold glance. That single look sent cold sweat pouring down Shang Gong's entire body.
"Yes, yes, yes. Rest assured, Sect Master Ye. We definitely won't reveal your whereabouts. You were never here."
Hearing the reply, Ye Lin nodded. Then his body gradually faded away, finally vanishing into thin air.
Watching Ye Lin leave, Shang Gong wiped the sweat from his forehead before examining the Spatial Ring. When he saw the mountain-like heap of treasures within, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
It was worth it.
"Elder, what does Sect Master Ye want that mask for?"
At that moment, a clansman approached from behind Shang Gong and asked him.
"Don't pry into what you shouldn't. And another thing: Sect Master Ye was never here, understand? If I find out that anyone leaked Sect Master Ye's whereabouts, I'll kill them on the spot."
Killing Intent surged from Shang Gong as he spoke coldly. This matter absolutely could not be leaked. Once it got out, the Artifact Race would face the Destiny of extermination.
Some elders of the Artifact Race had joined the Dawn Alliance and held positions there, specializing in forging weapons, so he knew all too well just how much influence stood behind Ye Lin.
The destruction of the Artifact Race would take no more than a word from Ye Lin.
That was why he was so cautious.
Elsewhere, in a mysterious place, countless Demon Beasts with crimson eyes and Asura Clan beings with equally crimson eyes were locked in a fierce battle. These beings had all lost their minds to Killing Intent.
Both sides were incomparably powerful.
