Li Kaicheng looked at Patriarch Jin.
"Patriarch Jin, once this is all over, you'll thank me. You might even be grateful that we persuaded you. The Gu Clan certainly has ties to the Upper Realm. We all know that. That's the only reason the Gu Clan hasn't been annihilated by Vice Sect Leader Jian."
"But think about it. How long have we heard about the Underworld Palace?" he asked Patriarch Jin.
The question made Patriarch Jin, who was still nervous, stop and think.
"Since..." He paused. "Since the time I started cultivating and learning about world history."
Li Kaicheng nodded before continuing.
"And how long has it been since the Gu Clan's ancestor ascended to the Immortal Realm?"
"Um... about 500 years?" Patriarch Jin replied, unsure of the exact number.
"562 years, to be exact," Li Kaicheng corrected him before continuing.
