Thunderclap King was close to Marquis Haohai and the other three. They were his subordinates and Marquis-Rank Creations of the Shadow Race, so naturally he did not want them to die.
After all, losing four Marquis-Rank Creations would be a tremendous blow to the Shadow Race.
The same went for Liu Yu!
Though Liu Yu was not a Marquis-Rank Creation, he was a disciple of the East Sun Residence.
In terms of potential, he even surpassed Marquis Haohai and the other three. He might well become a King-Sealing Creation one day.
"Mr. Qin." Thunderclap King stepped forward and cupped his hands before Qin Hao. "Liu Yu has committed all manner of misdeeds and does deserve death. But what if..."
Thunderclap King chose his words carefully, hoping to plead for Liu Yu. "The Shadow Race is willing to compensate you with one million Mid-Grade Origin Crystal Stones, as well as access to a Dao-Grade Cultivation Chamber."
He paused, then added, "With no time limit!"
An uproar broke out!
One million Mid-Grade Origin Crystal Stones!
Unlimited time in a Dao-Grade Cultivation Chamber!
Such terms were extraordinarily generous.
Of course, these were not privileges. They were compensation.
Even Qin Hao was slightly surprised.
One million Mid-Grade Origin Crystal Stones amounted to ten million Low-Grade Origin Crystal Stones—an enormous fortune.
And that was before counting the Dao-Grade Cultivation Chamber.
At East Sun City's rates, one day in a Dao-Grade Cultivation Chamber cost one hundred thousand Low-Grade Origin Crystal Stones.
The price was so steep that ordinary people could never afford it.
Yet Thunderclap King was offering Qin Hao unlimited time there.
In other words, Qin Hao could cultivate for as long as he wished without paying a single Origin Crystal.
What Qin Hao did not know was that this was the utmost compensation Thunderclap
