Chapter 1246: The Dragon King's Request

"How is that Pill Refiner's character?" the Heaven Capital Dragon King suddenly asked Bai Hang Holy Maiden; Bai Hang Holy Maiden was startled, pointed at herself, and winked at the Heaven Capital Dragon King.

The Heaven Capital Dragon King gave her a slight smile, indicating she need not be nervous or worried.

Bai Hang Holy Maiden finally eased her inner tension and anxiety, but she still couldn't relax and answered cautiously: "Your Majesty, Dragon King, Qinglong Daoren has a very good temperament, treats young and old alike fairly; as long as the payment satisfies him, the pill you need, he may be able to provide it to you."

"As long as he agrees, it will certainly be doable."

Bai Hang Holy Maiden didn't know how to address the Heaven Capital Dragon King, so she followed her master's title; after all, he is a powerful divine beast of Tian Du Men and its foundation, and his existence is known to every Tian Du disciple, who grew up hearing his stories.

How is Qinglong Daoren's temperament? Bai Hang Holy Maiden still has a say; at least Qinglong Daoren's reputation is unquestionable, and Bai Hang Holy Maiden can be 100% certain that as long as the payment is sufficient, Qinglong Daoist will not renege.

In terms of credibility, it's truly beyond question.

"It seems his reputation is excellent," the Heaven Capital Dragon King smiled faintly, evidently a ripple stirring in his heart.

This being, a bloodline of the Azure Dragon Clan, the pill can sense his aura, albeit weak, yet cannot escape the Heaven Capital Dragon King; moreover, Bai Hang Holy Maiden's title reveals much, confirming that he is of the Azure Dragon Clan bloodline.

Being of the dragon race as well, he is naturally proud and disdainful of breaking promises.

He very much wishes to meet such a person.

Unfortunately, he cannot leave for now, nor can he go to the Mangshan Mountain Range; that area is too dangerous, and his presence might unsettle someone. For Qinglong Daoren and for Tian Du Men, he cannot depart this place.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Dragon King, Qinglong Daoist truly has nothing to say on this matter; he won't claim I'm weak, otherwise he would bully me."

Bai Hang Holy Maiden has traded with Qinglong Daoren, so she naturally knows his reputation.

No need to worry.

"Your Majesty, Dragon King, if you need any pills, you may give them to me; I can negotiate with Qinglong Daoist. This time, however, some payment may be required. By the way, Dragon King, Qinglong Daoist greatly likes spirit veins; if you can give him a spirit vein, I am sure he will be very pleased."

Bai Hang Holy Maiden did not forget Qinglong Daoren's needs and asked cautiously.

She dared not speak loudly; the voice behind her faded gradually, fearing to upset the Heaven Capital Dragon King.

"Spirit vein?" the Heaven Capital Dragon King mused, "I have none at hand now; this thing is of little use to me, and I have no need to collect spirit veins."

The importance of spirit veins is self‑evident.

The Heaven Capital Dragon King is not ignorant; spirit veins represent a faction's foundation, only to be increased, never decreased.

"Does he need spirit veins greatly?"

Bai Hang Holy Maiden nodded, "Yes, Dragon King, a spirit vein would be best; if not, other things will do."

"He is not picky; as long as it's good, he will want it."

This, Bai Hang Holy Maiden can answer for Qinglong Daoren: he indeed greatly needs all kinds of good things.

Any resource, whether needed or not, Qinglong Daoren will want; he will not refuse.

He will provide you pills based on the resources; this is the experience Bai Hang Holy Maiden gained from the transaction, giving her deep insight into Qinglong Daoren's character.

This time, she is determined to volunteer herself; she hasn't been to Longshe Shan in a long while and wants to take a look.

Staying in the faction all the time is boring; it's better to go out more.

Moreover, the pills from the last deal were almost entirely consumed; Dahe Peak required a large quantity of pills, and those disciples advanced rapidly. Bai Hang Holy Maiden naturally began to consider this problem. She oversees most of Dahe Peak, while her master acts as a hands‑off overseer, caring about nothing.

As the senior sister of Dahe Peak, Bai Hang Holy Maiden bears a great many responsibilities.

"Is that so?" the Heaven Capital Dragon King did not nod immediately, but stared at Bai Hang Holy Maiden.

After a while, he shifted his gaze to Wu Mie Zhenren, who instantly understood the Heaven Capital Dragon King's meaning and asked, "Disciple, are you sure he is reliable?"

Bai Hang Holy Maiden thought for a moment and said, "Regarding other aspects, I cannot guarantee, but in terms of reputation, he is trustworthy."

Wu Mie Zhenren looked at the Heaven Capital Dragon King again, and the Heaven Capital Dragon King nodded, "If so, then go give it a try."

Speaking thus, he opened his palm, and a pill formula appeared in Bai Hang Holy Maiden's hand.

"This is the pill formula I need; when the time comes, show it to him and see if he can refine it. If he can, ask what his conditions are?"

"Regarding materials, I have already prepared them; as long as he nods, he can help me refine it, and I can grant him one condition."

"As for payment, I will not shortchange him."

The Heaven Capital Dragon King did not immediately provide the materials nor the payment; he only gave a pill formula.

Bai Hang Holy Maiden cupped the formula with both hands, intending to open it, when the Heaven Capital Dragon King's voice sounded again.

"You'd better not look at this formula, or you will regret it."

Bai Hang Holy Maiden immediately folded the formula back, put it away, and dared not glance at it.

The Heaven Capital Dragon King waved his hand and fell silent.

Wu Mie Zhenren led his disciple Bai Hang Holy Maiden away quickly, returning to Dahe Peak, where Bai Hang Holy Maiden couldn't help but ask, "Master, does the Dragon King have only this request?"

"You only need to go and do it; don't ask so many questions. The more you know, the less beneficial it is to you," Wu Mie Zhenren waved his hand, "Alright, hurry to the Mangshan, be careful, and these resources are for you to exchange for pills."

Wu Mie Zhenren casually tossed her a storage bag, inside which was one of her treasured items, all to be exchanged for pills.

This time, she acted directly, without hesitation.

It concerns the future of Dahe Peak and the Dragon King's future; Bai Hang Holy Maiden is full of fighting spirit and must see this task done.

"Master, rest assured, I will not disappoint you," Bai Hang Holy Maiden shouted loudly.

Wu Mie Zhenren pressed his hand and said, "Just watch yourself, don't provoke those mad ones in the Mangshan Demon Palace, remember."

"Disciple understands," Bai Hang Holy Maiden answered with a bow.

No one wants to provoke those mad ones in the Mangshan Demon Palace; once provoked, they are relentless.

Those demonic beasts are not human; there is little to estimate about them.

"Also, be careful of the Mu Long family; they've been quite active lately," Wu Mie Zhenren reminded again, only to find the disciple had already left.

Wu Mie Zhenren shook his head, "This disciple is truly impatient."

"Hope she can succeed this time."
