"Indeed..."
King Lin continued, "But rashly approaching the Golden Ray Monastery, they wouldn't believe us. Hence, we need to find an intermediary. My brother, Mr. Xu, is quite familiar with the Golden Ray Monastery. Niu Peng, this time you should deliver the letter, and ask on my behalf how Mr. Xu feels."
King Lin had also received the news that the Officials wanted to eliminate bandits, so he made preparations early on. He used this opportunity to test what Xu Qing's intentions really were.
If Xu Qing also intended to annihilate Qixia Mountain, then he would give up; rather than holding back, he would take people directly to the mountain, and if they did not comply, he would pay respects at their graves next year.
If Xu Qing was willing to continue cooperating, then the Three-tailed Black Fox could naturally be shared with him.
