Daoist Wan did not answer Dou Zhen's question immediately, responding instead with silence, as though weighing something.
Dou Zhen did not press him either, merely standing there and waiting for his reply.

Dou Zhen said directly, "I need to know every detail concerning Origin Xia, including its major movements going forward."
Daoist Wan said, "I can tell you, but you must agree to one condition of mine. That is, you will fight me." After a pause, he added, "But not now. I will choose the time and place."
Dou Zhen agreed without hesitation. "Fine, but what I need are detailed facts."

He looked at Dou Zhen and said, "Then it is settled. You may wait for my news." With a sweep of his sleeve, a wisp of black mist separated from his body and drifted toward the other side.
