The exchange between the two men had nearly depleted Long Hai's stock of White Jade Grass, leaving him with only one mature plant and eight seedlings.
After completing the exchange and verifying that the Spirit Stones and White Jade Grass were correct, they walked out of the canyon together.
As the three of them walked and chatted, Long Hai asked Lin Shilu:
"Fellow Daoists, this Secret Realm is fraught with danger. What are your plans now?"
It seemed Long Hai was interested in joining them; after all, the strength of a single person was ultimately limited. If the three worked together, at the very least, their chances of survival would be greater.
Considering Long Hai's strength, which both had seen before, Lin Shilu was somewhat tempted to cooperate for the long term.
After discussing it with Lin Tianming, they decided to go it alone. Although it was riskier, their origins and movements would not be exposed.
