Bai Fu invited Demetri inside for a detailed conversation.
Upon entering, Demetri immediately expressed his intention to cooperate.
"The Empire is very interested in your ability and hopes to establish a further cooperative relationship with you. Rest assured, the Empire will not shortchange any partner."
Bai Fu believed Demetri's words.
Half of the Empire's elite forces were not cultivated by the Empire but joined for various reasons.
The Empire has always been exceptionally generous with these affiliates and has never been rumored to seize anything from them.
Take Chong Xiao as an example.
Chong Xiao is the Pastor of the Mechanical Fire Sect, possessing a Cosmic Treasure that can be considered a Mechanical Holy Object—the Vitality Machine Soul, which can significantly enhance the fleet's combat power and also provide a considerable boost to the Empire's Radiant Host.
