The negotiation seemed to reach an impasse as Liang contemplated Lady Xue's offer. After a moment of silence, he nodded, accepting her final offer. "Very well, Lady Xue. I agree to assist you in fixing the teleportation formation."
Lady Xue's expression softened as she nodded in gratitude. "Thank you, Mr. Liang. Your assistance is greatly appreciated."
Liang shook his head, a sigh escaping his lips. "Helping others is what we should do."
Lady Xue felt a curse forming in her mind upon hearing this.
"Then, when do we leave?"
Lady Xue replied, her voice firm, "Now. You leave now."
"Huh, now?" Liang couldn't help but feel a sense of déjà vu, as if he had heard those words before.
"What about the materials I was about to buy?" Liang asked, a hint of concern in his voice.
"It's just one thousand elemental crystals. You can just take them, no need to pay," Lady Xue said dismissively, waving her hand.
