Two beams of red light shot from the woman's eyes, enveloping Xu Mao and Tong Chengxian.
Ten breaths later, an immense suction arose, and the surrounding space began to warp. When they opened their eyes, they were already in an elegant study.
A refined scholar was holding an ancient book and leafing through it.
Xu Mao and Tong Chengxian immediately knelt. "Greetings, Gold Envoy Flying Thunder!"
Without raising his head, the scholar asked mildly, "What is it?"
Xu Mao said delightedly, "Wonderful news for the Divine Clan!
"Within his jurisdiction, Copper Envoy Tong made the acquaintance of an alchemy group in the Pill Alliance called the Divine Pills Association. That batch of pills from a while ago all came from them.
"The Divine Pills Association was severely punished by the Pill Alliance for selling pills outside in large quantities and disrupting the medicinal herb market.
"Their president couldn't swallow his anger and planned to defect from the Pill Alliance to the Demon Sect.
"Through Copper Envoy Tong's introduction, I've reached a preliminary understanding with them. They're willing to join the Divine Clan!
"Please decide whether to accept them, Gold Envoy."
Flying Thunder set down his book, a strong gleam of interest flashing through his eyes.
Through Xu Mao's repeated reports, he knew the Divine Pills Association's capabilities. If they could truly be brought into the Divine Clan, they would be an enormous asset to the entire clan.
"Tell me in detail," Flying Thunder said seriously.
Xu Mao wasted no time, recounting the whole affair from beginning to end before adding, "At present, President Jiang needs a guarantee backed by the credibility of our senior leadership."
After considering for a while, Flying Thunder said, "This matter is too important to take lightly. I must search your souls to verify the information.
