Alex looked at the terrified young man with a pitiful look, then back at the man who asked him the question.
"I'll try," he said and walked toward them. "Can you give me a bit of space so I can ask him the question?"
The man, still seething with anger, moved a bit away from the two and let them talk.
"What's your name?" Alex asked him.
"Wu Shun," the young man spoke, his voice still quivering slightly in fear.
"Okay, brother Wu Shun. Can you tell me why exactly you need the Flameborn Nightsbane?" Alex asked him.
"To heal his daughter," the young man pointed at the man.
"I understand that, but why that ingredient? What is the purpose of that ingredient?" he asked. "Because that ingredient is not able to deal with Yin problems."
"No, it can," the young man said adamantly. "It is written as such in my book, and my book hasn't made a mistake yet."
Alex was a little surprised. "Your book?" he asked.
