Chapter 265: Unwilling to Trade
Tao Zi looked at him in surprise. Seeing that she didn't seem to react, he continued to remind her, "You should also be careful. We can't afford to offend the Minglan Sect. Either make a deal with them or use it for yourself. Don't try to get things from other sects."
She naturally understood this, but was surprised that this person actually reminded her here. However, she also accepted his kindness and nodded, "Thank you."
The monk breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "It's okay. Good luck, pink hammer girl."
Tao Zi: "...Thank you, but I have a name. My last name is Tao and my given name is Zi."
Who came up with this weird name? It's not intimidating, it has no meaning, and it has no aesthetic appeal. I don't even want to accept it.
The monk smiled, bowed to her, and left.
Tao Zi walked in slowly.
Most of them are young people, and the most famous ones are Xu Qianjia and Wangxu.
Wang Xu looked at the young woman and said some polite words before getting to the point: "Do you want to use the Soul-Constructing Pill now or take it away?"
Tao Zi answered simply: "Take it away."
As soon as these words came out, He Qianyi turned his gaze to her, and the burning heat in his eyes could not be hidden.
Wang Xu didn't say anything, and Jiu Qingyue on the side reminded him: "Daoyou, the medical practitioner of the Spring and Autumn Sect is here, and he can maximize the efficacy of the medicine."
Tao Zi looked at him, bowed, and said gently: "Thank you, but I don't need it. I'm just here because a friend asked me to."
He was stunned for a moment and gave a wink to a disciple of Chunqiu Sect with whom he had a good relationship.
God knows, it was he and the elders who stopped the junior sister from going to Minglan Sect to argue. The junior sister is still angry until now. If Lian Qingzhou gets the Soul-Converting Pill... I can't imagine how angry the junior sister is.
The disciple stood up and said, "Fellow Daoist, could you please let me see your spiritual veins?"
To be honest, no one present believed that there was really no problem with her spiritual veins - how could a cultivator with no problem with her spiritual veins become a physical cultivator?
Tao Zi said generously, "Of course."
It just so happened that she also wanted to see whether these Chunqiu Sect medical practitioners could tell her past experiences from her spiritual veins.
The disciple walked up to her and she held out her wrist.
When he injected spiritual energy again, the disciple's face was filled with surprise. After about half a minute, he turned around and said, "This fellow Taoist has an excellent spiritual vein."
Wangxu also looked over, but because he was a steady person, others couldn't tell what he was thinking.
Qiu Xin, the senior sister of the Chunqiu Sect, became interested and asked with a smile, "Since your spiritual veins are so excellent, how did you enter the physical cultivation path?"
Tao Zi lied without changing her expression: "I love physical cultivation, so I'll start with physical cultivation."
This answer was surprising, and she vaguely heard someone say, "What a pity."
Tao Zi didn't care what they were thinking and continued, "Excuse me, what about the Soul-Constructing Pill?"
Wang Xu said, "Present it."
A disciple came over with a box with a seal on it.
Wang Xu's tone softened: "Once you input spiritual energy into the seal, only you can open the box. If others force it open, the pill will be destroyed."
The Sword Sect is really cautious and even thought of this.
Tao Zi bowed, her expression calm, and said, "Thank you very much."
She channeled her spiritual energy into the seal before reaching out to take the box.
Before she could speak, He Qianyi said gently, "Fellow Daoist, since this Soul-Shaping Pill is of no benefit to you, how about making a deal and sending it to someone who can use it?"
Tao Zi turned to look at her former junior sister, her brows curved, but her tone was particularly indifferent: "No, I came here for the Soul-Shaping Pill and Sword Mountain."
He Qianyi frowned and said, "Is there anyone who really needs something like this?"
She asked, "What does it have to do with me?"
This lack of respect for Minglan Sect aroused the interest of others.
Qiu Xin laughed and said, "Junior Sister He, this is your fault. You haven't even explained the details of the deal clearly. Who would agree to it directly?"
He Qianyi suddenly realized and said, "That's right, fellow Daoist. The conditions offered by our Minglan Sect are a low-level storage ring and a mid-level technique book."
Tao Zi raised her eyebrows and said, "Intermediate martial arts?"
She really wasn't interested in this. It would be better to give her a technique. Unfortunately, the few known techniques for cultivating the body were all in the Minglan Sect and had owners.
Seeing that she seemed interested, she immediately said, "Yes, it's martial arts, which is very suitable for you."
Tao Zi didn't know whether to laugh for a moment. She knew better than anyone how many martial arts books there were in the entire Minglan Sect. She was exchanging the techniques she had risked her life to find for the Soul-Sculpting Pill.
It's really a case of getting something for nothing.
Just when He Qianyi thought the deal was done, she refused: "Sorry, I don't want to trade."
He Qianyi looked unhappy, but Tao Zi stopped talking and said to Wang Xu, "Young Sect Master, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave."
Lan Yongji said in a cold voice, "Fellow Daoist, the Soul-Shaping Pill is of no benefit to you. Why don't you make a deal?"
Tao Zi said bluntly: "This is my stuff. Whether to trade it or not is my own business. You don't need to worry about it."
He frowned, his tone becoming even colder: "Someone really needs this medicine."
She asked again, "What does it have to do with me?"
Lan Yongji wanted to say more, but Qiu Xuanhuan finally spoke up, "A Soul-Shaping Pill is not something a low-level storage ring or mid-level technique can compare to. You two, eat it in a more elegant manner."
The two of them looked unhappy, and even Xu Qianjia was not very happy. He said, "It's a favor from my Minglan Sect..."
"Come on, come on, don't give me that. The grass on the grave of the one who made the greatest contribution to your Minglan Sect is almost up to your neck."
Qiu Xuanhuan's words brought silence to the scene. Qiu Xuanxin stroked his forehead, but was reluctant to scold him in front of everyone.
Xu Qianjia's expression was icy. He wanted to speak, but Wangxu said lightly, "Although it's the truth, you shouldn't be so direct. Junior Brother Huanhuan, be careful."
He snorted and stopped talking.
The people from Minglan Sect all looked extremely bad, and no one knew what they were thinking, but this was indeed the truth.
It can be said that the Minglan Sect was able to become one of the three major sects because of the Heavenly Venerable Qinglan.
But what is more well-known is that Tianzun never cares about things. If it weren't for Yue Qiran, Minglan Sect would not have been able to take on the resources and would have been eaten into a hollow shell long ago.
Just like now, people from other peaks have taken away a small portion of the resources belonging to the main peak under various pretexts, but those people do not have much sense of belonging to Minglan Sect.
Unless Tianzun personally comes forward, unfortunately, the first and only time he officially took action was to deal with Yue Qiran, which is really...tsk.
Tao Zi looked at Xu Qianjia, smiled politely but distantly, and said, "I'm really sorry, but the Minglan clan is big and powerful, so I don't think there's any need to force what's in my hand."
He Qianyi was surprised: "Are you really not going to do this deal?"
"Of course not. This Soul-Shaping Pill has its own place." Tao Zi curved her eyes. "Speaking of which, the Minglan Sect's Punishment Hall is a place that all physical cultivators yearn for. Masters emerge in droves. Why don't they send people to participate in the competition?"
