The High Elder's expression became noticeably strained. "Senior, that is..."
"An excellent idea, isn't it?" Zhenyu chuckled. "Don't worry about thanking me. I'm always happy to help the sect."
Daoist Bone Ruler slowly closed his eyes as he had expected something like this.
From the moment Mengli Zhenyu began asking questions about the cursed artifacts, the Law Division Head had suspected that the ancient body cultivator was preparing another troublesome proposal.
Now his suspicions had been confirmed.
'Truly, a sly old monster,' Daoist Bone Ruler thought.
He doubted that Zhenyu had any intention of quietly assisting the Vault Division with its research. The offer was clearly designed to eliminate the excuse preventing Taegong from appearing.
If the Vault Division accepted, Zhenyu would gain access to its restricted research facilities. If it refused, the High Elder would have to explain why the assistance of such a powerful senior was unacceptable.
