Skipping further pleasantries, the large bald man bluntly said, "You three Fellow Daoists arrived just in time. I just received information that an army of spell warriors attacked Fellow Daoist Bu's Sky Terrace Valley and are coming here in passing. In less than half a day, our defeated allies from Sky Terrace Valley will arrive. I hope when the time comes, you three Fellow Daoists will be able to rescue them."
Showing not the slightest dissatisfaction at the request, Old Man Ma said, "This will be handled; it is but a trivial affair. I'll be able to do it myself, so there's no need for Fellow Daoist Han and Brother Gu to act!"
This caused Han Li and Gu Shuangpu to glance at each other with slight surprise.
The old man twirled his beard and wore a mysterious expression. "Fellow Daoists, don't be surprised. It isn't that I wish to show off, but there is a recently acquired treasure that I wish to test. Surely you won't fight me on this?"
