Ding Fan heard Ruo Zhong's words but did not respond. He walked straight out of the tent, followed closely by three Elders. Those Spirit Stones were indeed a significant amount for Ding Fan, but he was not worried. Ruo Zhong's previous caution had shown Ding Fan that the other party was very concerned, even anxious, about the troops he had loaned out. From the information Ding Fan had gathered earlier, he was quite confident that the other party would remain here, waiting for those soldiers to return.
Moreover, the perimeter of the camp was guarded by Long Ren and others. So even if the other party attempted to flee with the Spirit Stones, Ding Fan would discover it immediately. While Ding Fan couldn't guarantee much, those Spirit Stones were at least secure.
