Hearing this, Gu Ran allowed a faint smile to form in the depths of his heart, unseen by others; he also sighed in relief.
Pretending to consider for a moment, he made his demand:
"A Black Iron Card... shard!!"
Upon hearing the words "Black Iron Card," not only did anger flash in the eyes of the surrounding Tengsnake Association members, but even Zhou Jianwen, who had kept his emotions in check, showed a glint of ferocity in his gaze, resembling an enraged hyena about to bare its fangs.
However, when Gu Ran finally added the word "shard," the crowd, still angry, lost their previous edge of imminent explosion.
"Impossible, we can only give you a complete Bone Armor!!"
After a moment of silence, Zhou Jianwen rejected the offer, yet Gu Ran remained silent, simply standing there quietly.
While he said nothing, everyone present clearly understood what this silence meant.
