"This world is truly fascinating, the path of mystery and transcendence leads back to the beginning after all..."
Zhong Shenxiu's lips curled into a slight smile.
"You're very astute... I only barely understood this when I was five hundred years old."
Isreal's demeanor became calm again, "So... for the sake of world safety, please ascend!"
"You really... have no regard for my feelings or safety whatsoever. After ascending, I could be devoured by the irate Master of Black Blood, or even have my soul extracted, enduring a fate worse than death..."
Zhong Shenxiu shook his head with a sigh, "Then... what about the Mojito family, and my friends?"
"We can make a trade... I can offer them protection, as long as you share your secrets with me."
