Li Ming halted, then turned around. Only then did Blake see that the other was holding a broken metal palm, his tone playful:
"He was someone I went through great pains to rescue. You say you're taking him away?"
Blake was not surprised, "Your Excellency, name a price. If it's reasonable, we are willing to pay accordingly."
Li Ming did not quote a price right away, but instead drawled leisurely, "His family seems to have fallen? What do you need him for?"
"To use his name to intervene in the internal affairs of the Judger Civilization?"
Blake frowned tightly, "These matters have nothing to do with Your Excellency."
Li Ming shrugged, "Indeed, they have nothing to do with me. However, I am quite curious, and if you don't tell me, then there's nothing to discuss."
Blake's expression shifted slightly, his voice cold, "Isn't Your Excellency being a bit too unreasonable?"
The few men behind Blake tensed, ready to act, as the atmosphere at the scene dropped to freezing point.
