"Oh? If you like that pair of raptorial limbs, Void Sage Fang, I would gladly present them to you with both hands. You clearly know quality when you see it. These mantis shrimp are the assassins of the shrimp race, especially in the sea. Their two raptorial limbs shoot out like steel fists, generating intense heat in the water to scorch their enemies. They are among the very few water demons capable of smashing turtle demons, snail demons, or shell demons of the same rank. In sheer destructive power, they surpass even the Dragon Race. Even opponents a rank above these mantis shrimp demons are certain to suffer grievous injuries if struck. Fortunately, these shrimp have difficulty attaining Saint Enfeoffment. Otherwise, their destructive power would far exceed that of any other water demon." Wei Huangan rattled on at length.
Tan Hemu had not understood at first, but halfway through, realization dawned on him. However powerful the Mantis Shrimp King's raptorial limbs might be, a dignified Void Sage would hardly shamelessly ask for them outright. After all, Fang Yun was not as shameless as Lian Pingchao. Wei Huangan was deliberately rattling on because he clearly understood that Fang Yun had only mentioned those limbs as a pretext. What he really wanted to discuss was the compensation that followed.
The two sides did not belong to the same team. If Wei Huangan wanted to escape, he had to pay a price.
Still, Tan Hemu felt somewhat puzzled. If his guess was correct, he had surely underestimated Fang Yun's generosity of spirit.
Fang Yun smiled and said, "I know what you are after, Grand Academician Wei, but you have misunderstood me. I am very grateful that you stopped Xiong Tu for me at the entrance to the Crime-Suppressing Hall's front hall."
