Upon arriving at the Yin Ghost Mountain Range, before communicating with the Starfall Nether Spring Ghost Monarch, Chen Dengming first needed to understand the current situation beneath the Nether Spring from the ferocious ghost Chu Xun.
Know yourself and know your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger.
He surmised that given the greed of the Starfall Nether Spring Ghost Monarch, he would certainly not agree to the fifty-fifty split proposed by Chu Xun. It was very likely that he would demand an exorbitant share.
In such a case, only he himself could negotiate with the Starfall Nether Spring Ghost Monarch to secure more benefits for Chu Xun.
The better Chu Xun did under the Nether Spring, the more he would need Chu Xun's assistance in the future.
