Once the old Daoist heard what Han Li wanted, his uncontrollable excitement promptly faded away. With his newly restored calm, he said, "It seems Fellow Daoist Han plans on using this to extort me."
Han Li calmly said, "Extort? Those words are mistaken. Until now, I've never made any demands of you; rather, I gifted you with several rare soul stones. If Fellow Daoist doesn't feel this arrangement to be profitable, just pretend I never asked the second question, and you can keep those soul stones."
Daoist Heavencrystal's expression relaxed and then began to waver while Han Li simply stood at the side without urging him in the slightest.
After a long while, the old Daoist coldly said, "If I give you the puppet designs, you will more or less be able to tell whether they are legitimate. But how can I possibly know if you were telling the truth about the Umbra Beasts?"
