Zhou Xuan extended his hand, placing it on the Eternal Life Sect Leader's right forearm, and said enigmatically, "Sect Leader, do you know why I kept you on East Market Street?"
"To open my eyes and let me see your newly refined Golden Core."
"Opening your eyes is secondary," Zhou Xuan replied. "If I refine a hundred pills from this furnace, offering five to you, who in the heavens would know?"
"And if I refine two hundred, giving you ten, who would be the wiser?"
Zhou Xuan had set the "kickback" percentage for the Eternal Life Sect Leader – five percent.
Upon hearing this, the Eternal Life Sect Leader immediately understood, but he still pointed to his temple, refusing, "Master Zhou, I don't enjoy consuming elixirs; it could easily harm here."
Then, he whispered, "In the Heavenly Dome, many have had their spirits ruined by elixirs, there are quite a few cautionary tales."
Zhou Xuan sneered, "Eternal Life Sect Leader, at this point, it's disingenuous to feign ignorance."
