Of course, since the Heavenly Profound Sect had already given its word, it wasn't going to go back on it.
Although Elder Chu's heart was bleeding, he still wouldn't tear up the Heavenly Profound Sect's promise on the spot. But having two such fine items taken away in one go, even he had no choice but to report it.
What he didn't know, though, was that Li Chen had silently palmed off a piece of Rune Hollow Mother Iron as well.
If the Heavenly Profound Sect found out they'd actually had a piece of Rune Hollow Mother Iron piled there like trash, and that Li Chen had casually taken it away, then even with the Sect's magnanimous style, they'd probably still make a move to intercept it.
After all, Rune Hollow Mother Iron is something even Dao Saints dream of, and even Founding Realm, Heaven-shrouding Powerhouses want to get their hands on.
Credit only matters when you actually need to use it.
