Chapter 303: Brother Chun, please stay
Upon hearing this, Tong Mingshan suddenly turned his head and looked at him, his eyes complicated, with excitement and gratitude.
He knew that since the boss said so, he didn't have to worry about it, and he would naturally help him deal with Shudao Mountain.
Soon, the surging flames in the light curtain suddenly disappeared, and what Yuan Yao held in his palm was not a ball of flame, but a dragon trapped in a bell, circling and flying up and down, quite spiritual. However, no matter how it struggled, it could not escape from Yuan Yao's palm.
Yuan Yao's eyes were filled with excitement. He looked away from the divine fire and nodded to Shi Chun. Then he walked out. Before he could speak, Shi Chun said to him, "Give it to him."
There is no one else here, so the 'he' is naturally Tong Mingshan.
Yuan Yao hesitated a little, but still obeyed, carrying it in one hand and bringing it to Tong Mingshan.
In the past, this was truly unimaginable.
To conquer a person, time and experience are enough.
Tong Mingshan quickly cast a spell and took it into his hands.
Yuan Yao then took out the compass, turned it on and turned off the Yuan-locking Array, then put the twelve iron towers back into the bag one by one.
"Find a place to hide here and wait for us to meet you." Shi Chun instructed Tong Mingshan.
"Okay." Tong Mingshan agreed, with a hint of obedience, the kind of obedience that came from the heart.
Shi Chunze and Yuan Yao flew into the air.
The two did not keep the people from Wangqing Valley waiting for long. As soon as Yuan Yao landed after receiving the instructions, he immediately waved to the people from Shudao Mountain and said, "Let them go."
So the troops that were surrounding Shudao Mountain withdrew.
Wu Shanshan asked, "What do you mean?"
Shi Chun said: "I just met our missing people and realized it was a misunderstanding. We were also deceived by the villain. I'm sorry to bother you all." He bowed.
Yuan Yao also bowed in greeting.
The woman named Lin Yuefang, who had no nostrils on her nose, snorted coldly, "It's a good thing we didn't do anything just now. If we had, it would have been more than just a little bit of injustice that fell on our heads."
Well, Shi Chun smiled, and just as he was about to think of an excuse, they offered him the stairs. So he naturally had to go up the stairs, and then he clasped his hands and said, "I'm really sorry, it's us who have wronged you all, that..." He turned around and asked Yuan Yao, "Brother Yuan, we still have an unused divine fire in our hands, right?"
He looked like he was about to apologize, and mentioned the unused sacred fire, which made the people in Wangqing Valley tremble with fear. He wanted to use the sacred fire to apologize, right? There would be no such good thing, right?
You're thinking too much, you're thinking too much, you must be thinking too much, there's no way such a good thing can happen.
Yuan Yao nodded, turned around and waved to a fellow disciple who was holding a brick in his hand.
After the man came forward, Yuan Yao smashed the soil he was holding, and a ball of red flames immediately appeared.
The eyes of the people in Wangqing Valley all glowed red, as if they were illuminated by the flames.
These women were aroused by unrealistic hopes. Do these men really have to offer divine fire as an apology? We don’t look pretty at all!
At this time, given their situation, there are still quite a few women who can think of pledgeing their love to them or thinking of falling in love with them.
The point is, they are disciples of the Valley of Forgetfulness, and entering this sect is equivalent to severing the love between men and women.
Shi Chun then asked, "Everyone, what do you think of this divine fire?"
When he asked this question, the group of women were annoyed by his words as they made them fantasize more, but at the same time they were looking forward to it very much.
Wu Shanshan asked: "The divine fire is of course good, but what's the matter? Do you want to give us the divine fire as an apology?"
Shi Chun: "It's an apology, not a free gift of the divine fire. We have a lot of divine fire Chiyan here, and I want to ask you if you have other divine fires. If you do, and you need them, we can exchange them with each other. It will be our apology, and for us, it will not be in vain."
How much divine fire is there? When people from Mingshan Sect or Shudao Mountain practiced fire-based skills, they all laughed bitterly. Especially on Shudao Mountain, there were dozens of people practicing fire-based skills. How could there be so much divine fire?
It is scarce, but we just don’t expect it. It is caused by the gap in identity, status and strength.
However, no one said anything. Even a fool could see that someone was plotting against Wangqing Valley.
Pang Hou was the saddest one. He was also one of the few who knew the inside story and knew that the purpose of this trip was to give the sacred fire to someone else.
The divine fire that made him sad was not this one, but the one that Gu Lianni took and absorbed.
Shi Chun actually kept his promise. He really delayed the distribution of the divine fire to Mingshan Sect for his sake and gave it to Shudaoshan first.
It was clearly given to him out of respect, but Junior Master took it and absorbed it. What could he say? Yuan Yao at least absorbed a divine fire, but he didn't absorb any.
After all this, it was inevitable that he felt a little sad.
Exchange? The leading women in Wangqing Valley looked at each other. They hadn't found a single divine fire, so what could they use to exchange?
But what they lack is this divine fire.
The fact that there are five people among them who possess demonic energy can prove their advancement to some extent compared with the other two lineages. They have no less undercover agents in various factions than the other two lineages.
Their undercover agents in other sects have already sent in a lot of information about the divine fire.
They also knew a good way to occupy those Divine Fire strongholds.
But they just lacked a sacred fire and a bait, which made it impossible to implement those good ideas.
Now suddenly someone is willing to exchange the divine fire, which instantly ignites their hearts. Even if they don’t have the divine fire for exchange, they still want to get this divine fire. At this moment, they need it urgently and need it very much.
It is unrealistic to rob. The strength comparison is there. If we really fight, we may not be able to gain the upper hand.
However, the opportunity has indeed been presented to them, and it is not difficult to choose whether to miss it or to fight for it.
Shi Chun also knew that it would not be difficult for them to make a choice, so he came.
So he deliberately created a misunderstanding.
So he deliberately took out the divine fire to apologize.
Of course, the sacred fire hidden here was also taken away.
This was all thanks to Qianyan Sect's Gong Shixi. Under the pressure of Shudao Mountain, he had wanted to cooperate with these two sects. However, Gong Shixi's overbearing style of wanting and demanding without negotiation completely irritated him, and he was forced to change his mind. He did not hesitate to beat around the bush and spend more effort to make Gong Shixi's grandson neither expect nor get what he wanted. The situation had come to this point, so he naturally had no need to cooperate with Wangqing Valley. It was not a bad thing for fewer people to know his identity as a demon.
After a quick deliberation, Wu Shanshan said, "Okay, I like the exchange. We can exchange, but we don't have any ready-made divine fire at the moment."
Shi Chun was amused. "Are you kidding? What's the point of talking about exchange without the divine fire? Do you want to rob me, or do you think I'm easy to cheat and bully?"
He turned around and shook his hands at the disciple of Shudao Mountain who was holding the sacred fire, signaling them to take the sacred fire and retreat.
The disciple quickly stepped back. This was the most obedient disciple in the history of Shudao Mountain to Master Chun, and he did as Yuan Yao asked without his permission.
Wu Shanshan: "Brother Chun, you are too kind. All the disciples from various sects who have entered the Divine Fire Realm know your name. As long as you don't lie, it's a blessing. Who can deceive you? That's right, we don't have the Divine Fire to exchange with Brother Chun now, but we can exchange it with Brother Chun with the Divine Fire we find later."
Yuan Yao said nonchalantly, "This is a bit of a joke."
Shi Chun also laughed, "Your name is Wu Shanshan, right? You are not lying, you are treating me like a fool. You said you can find the divine fire in the future? Most sects have to leave empty-handed."
At this point, he changed the subject slightly, "You have nothing to pledge, and if you come back and say you can't find the sacred fire, it will be useless even if I dissect you alive."
Speaking of collateral, the expressions of several women were slightly touched.
Wu Shanshan said: "Brother Chun's words may not sound good, but they are true. What I want to talk about is the collateral. In this exchange, we will definitely not take your divine fire with empty words. Even if we want to take it, you will not agree. No one will agree to this exchange, so we are willing to take out the collateral."
Shi Chun sneered, "Mortgage? What can you mortgage? You are also a weapon refiner, you should know that the divine fire is a priceless treasure."
Wu Shanshan thought about it and tried to make a suggestion: "How about I use the magic weapon as collateral?"
Shi Chun was still disdainful, "No magic weapon can match the divine fire. As a weapon refiner, don't you know that?"
Wu Shanshan: "This may be true for weapon refiners, but is it also true for Brother Chun?"
If Shi Chun really wanted to not make this deal, he would naturally have reasons to refuse. But since he came here with a purpose, he seemed to be touched by these words and fell into deep thought.
Wu Shanshan and her group looked at each other, with anticipation in their eyes.
After a long while, Shi Chun asked, "What treasures do you have as collateral?"
Wu Shanshan immediately said to the woman with a scar on her face and a missing finger, "Junior sister, show your treasure to Brother Chun."
The woman's name was Jin Hao. She took out a silver handkerchief-like object similar to kesi silk and threatened, "This object is called 'Jiaoxian Ling'. Which junior sister is willing to cooperate with me to demonstrate it to them?"
"I'll do it." A woman behind responded and jumped into the air. She used wind scales in the air, rushed high into the sky, and flew away.
After a while, it flew back quickly.
"Watch out." Jin Hao reminded with a smile. White light burst out from her handkerchief, and it suddenly floated up like a cloud. She pointed to the sky and shouted, "Go!"
The handkerchief immediately burst into energy and shot into the air, like a stream of light rushing towards a figure passing by in the sky.
In everyone's sight, the stream of light suddenly exploded into a cloud of mist, which quickly disappeared. Then the figure passing through the air suddenly fell down like a kite with a broken string.
When they floated back to the Wangqing Valley camp, Shi Chun and others noticed that the woman who cooperated with the performance had been tightly caught by a fine net, leaving pieces of her body.
Jin Hao pointed and reminded, "I won't harm my own people. If I did, I could crush them into pieces in an instant." With a flick of her finger, the silk net that bound them flashed white light and bounced open, suddenly shrinking into the shape of a handkerchief, and then floated back into her palm like a soft cloud.
The woman who had just been tied up held up a piece of the tower base and cast a spell to recover the scattered scales of the wind scales.
Wu Shanshan smiled and said, "How about this treasure?"
Shi Chun's eyes naturally lit up, thinking it was a great treasure. Wow, it could even catch people who rode the Wind Scales, and could also strangle them to death. Such a magic weapon opened his eyes, and he really couldn't say anything bad about it.
At least for him, any damn divine fire is not as good as this treasure in his hand.
But he still looked back at Yuan Yao beside him, and seeing that he didn't react, he immediately asked, "Brother Yuan, you are an expert, what is the quality of this treasure?"
Yuan Yao pondered and said, "Brother Chun, you are too polite. I am not worthy of being called an expert. This treasure is exquisite and not something that ordinary people can refine. It should be made by a master. If we talk about the grade, it is estimated to be a fourth-grade magic weapon, a good thing that has been integrated with the spirit of the weapon."
Wu Shanshan smiled and said, "As expected of a disciple of Shudao Mountain, you can see through everything at a glance. It's no exaggeration to say that you are an expert. Brother Chun, is this fourth-grade magic weapon worthy of being a mortgage?"
Shi Chun was quite curious at first, but when he heard that it was a fourth-grade magic weapon, far inferior to the one in Gu Lianni's hand, his face suddenly darkened and his interest dropped greatly.
If he didn't know the hidden identities of the other group of people, a fourth-grade magic weapon would indeed be enough, but the problem was that he knew the background of these people. He didn't believe that they were the representatives of the demonic sect, and they only had a fourth-grade magic weapon. How much did he look down on the demonic sect?
He immediately said calmly: "Such a good magic weapon, I think you should keep it for yourselves in Wangqing Valley. There is no shortage of this kind of stuff in Shudao Mountain."
He turned to his left and right and said, "Let them play by themselves, let's go!"
After hearing what he said, the group of people naturally turned around and prepared to leave.
Yuan Yao and Pang Hou were somewhat surprised. Didn't they want to lend the divine fire to others? This fourth-grade magic weapon was integrated with the spirit of the weapon. It was already a very advanced magic weapon. Wasn't this enough?
The divine fire is of course a priceless treasure to a weapon refiner, but as far as a divine fire is concerned, if the weapon refiner has limited talent, he may not be able to refine a treasure of this level even if he absorbs a divine fire.
Given the talents of most people, it is difficult for a divine fire to reach this level of refining.
Of course, for the refiner himself, the divine fire is definitely better, but for a cultivator like Brother Chun, it is enough to use it as collateral.
However, since Shi Chun was dissatisfied, they couldn't say anything. After looking at each other, they followed him and left.
Their idea is actually not wrong, but the key point is that Shi Chun is the one who knows the trump card of Wangqing Valley and what the Wangqing Valley group urgently needs, so he will definitely try to exploit them to the maximum.
Of course, if this is the other party’s bottom line, he will still think it over and turn back.
Seeing them leave like this, the leading women suddenly became anxious and embarrassed. They didn't even like the fourth-grade magic weapon, so how could they dare to rob them?
Finally, Wu Shanshan called out, "Brother Chun, please stay!"
Lin Yuefang and several other women looked at her in astonishment, all with doubt in their eyes, because they knew what it would mean to continue the conversation.
