Zhang Hengyu hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Lord Azure Dragon is indeed straightforward. In that case, I won't hide it either, six hundred and fifty billion Star Coins."
"That's the best we can offer."
"You're not honest." Li Ming stared at him, abruptly saying, "I was beginning to admire you."
