Xu Yourong's reply was very fast, as if she had not even needed to think about it.
But both Shang Xingzhou and Wang Po knew that this was because she had already thought of this question far too many times. No further thought was needed.
Wang Po gazed at the dust cloud getting closer and closer to the Mausoleum of Books and sighed.
Shang Xingzhou looked at her and said, " Why must I agree to your request?"
Xu Yourong replied, "'Request' is just a polite way of saying it, because I must respect you as Chen Changsheng's master. In truth, I require this of you."
'Request' and 'require' were only a few letters off, but the wills they represented were vastly different.
There was already no one left who dared to treat Shang Xingzhou with such an unflinching stance.
"Why?"
"Because you want to make an expedition to the north, to exterminate the demons, to unite the world under the Human race."
