"You...!" Lu Qingshan nearly roared, but forcibly swallowed it back.
He suddenly realized that... that actually did seem to make sense!
If they really got their hands on ironclad proof of dealings with demon cultivators, never mind naming one price-even if they named ten, the other side would probably have to hold their noses and accept!
