He and En Ci failed to reproduce Huo Yuhao’s unusual soul-forged metal, and Dai Tianling decided to make it a bargaining chip in the coming negotiations with the Tang Sect.

• Dai Tianling told En Ci that the Tang Sect would likely protect the Star Luo Empire because it needed customers and had assets there, while the empire could use that dependence to seek technology.
