Lady Qin smiled as she heard Daoist Chu's answer.
"Very well, I suppose someone of your status won't short change us." She said before taking out a small jade token and holding it in her hand for a moment before sliding it over.
Daoist Chu held the token and read it with his Immortal Sense.
Within it she had written down the cost. As for why she hadn't spoken it out loud?
There were certain etiquettes that needed to be followed, even when they were in a private setting. Daoist Chu was familiar with them and nodded before taking out a small pouch and handing it over.
She quickly picked it up, a smile appearing on her face.
Lady Qin leaned back in her chaise with her usual grace, one leg crossed over the other, her fingers delicately twirling the small pouch of Immortal Stones she had just received.
The glow of the Earth Flame lanterns shimmered across her face, accentuating the glint in her eyes that suggested what she was about to say was far from trivial.
