Chapter 1334: Qinglong Daoren: Encounter a Tycoon Again, Cheat If You Can
"Do you think His Excellency the Dragon King didn't see me? He saw me, yet he left quickly. I was just about to go out and intercept, but he had already vanished," the Heavenly Capital True Person said plaintively.
That expression was just like a man who had lost his wife—pitiful indeed.
Wu Mie Zhenren comforted, "Senior brother, perhaps His Excellency the Dragon King was in a hurry to leave, so…"
The Heavenly Capital True Person waved a hand, "Fine, you don't need to speak for him. He just doesn't want to see me, fearing I won't let him go, huh."
He let out a cold snort, expressing his displeasure; besides being angry, he was still angry.
The Heavenly Capital True Person, being so clever, naturally knew why the Heavenly Capital Dragon King went to the Mangshan Mountain Range and whom he intended to meet; his haste indicated that the Dragon King was also in a rush, otherwise he wouldn't be so urgent.
He also knew some of the Heavenly Capital Dragon King's circumstances: even gathering the entire faction's strength couldn't heal the Dragon King's injuries, mainly because the Eighth-grade Pill was too difficult to refine; the sect had no alchemists of that rank, and external alchemists wouldn't be willing to refine the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill.
Reaching the Seventh-Grade Alchemist rank, that status was extremely high; many people couldn't even flatter their way in time. The Heavenly Capital True Person knew a few, but unfortunately they couldn't refine Eighth-grade Pills. The gap between a Seventh-Grade Alchemist and an Eighth-Grade Alchemist was vast, like a deep chasm.
Even an Eighth-Grade Alchemist might not be able to refine the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill; its refining difficulty is high, extremely complex, and carries some danger. Many Eighth-Grade Alchemists are unwilling to touch it, so, out of necessity, His Excellency the Dragon King would risk leaving for the Mangshan Mountain Range.
"Senior brother, junior sister is mainly worried that the Dragon King might encounter danger; after all, that's the Mangshan Mountain Range. If it were elsewhere in Cangzhou, junior sister wouldn't be so concerned."
"The Dragon King went with Bai Hang, and if something happened, then…"
Wu Mie Zhenren worried about his disciple and also about the Heavenly Capital Dragon King; after all, within the Mangshan Mountain Range resides a powerful Demon Emperor and many powerful Demon Kings. The Heavenly Capital Dragon King alone cannot defeat them, and if they learn of him, His Excellency the Dragon King would be in great danger.
The Heavenly Capital Dragon King must not encounter mishap; that was Wu Mie Zhenren's thought.
The Heavenly Capital Dragon King is the pillar of Tian Du Men; if he falls, Tian Du Men will be… very dangerous. Then the demonic beasts of the Mangshan Mountain Range would be unrestrained. Thinking of this, Wu Mie Zhenren couldn't help but feel fear.
"I see it," the Heavenly Capital True Person replied helplessly, his gaze fixed on the location of the Mangshan Mountain Range, eyes narrowed.
After a long while, the Heavenly Capital True Person spoke: "Junior sister, the matter has already occurred. His Excellency the Dragon King does not wish us to intervene in his affairs. We should not get overly involved. Since the Dragon King went alone to the Mangshan Mountain Range, he must be confident; you need not worry."
"The Dragon King's ways have their reasons; we, then, should not worry too much."
Worrying is useless; the beings the Dragon King cannot defeat are also beyond our ability.
The Heavenly Capital True Person was close to telling Wu Mie Zhenren directly that we can only watch now, unable to do anything. Sending people would only cause a bigger stir and provoke the Dragon King's displeasure; it's better to wait quietly for news.
This is the only thing we can do at present.
"Alas," Wu Mie Zhenren sighed; she naturally understood this reasoning, yet she was worried.
"Senior brother, perhaps we should still send a few people to receive the Dragon King."
The Heavenly Capital True Person nodded: "You arrange it. Keep an eye on the Mangshan Mountain Range; lately it hasn't been calm."
"Understood." Wu Mie Zhenren went down to make arrangements; she was not at all reassured.
The Heavenly Capital True Person stared into the distance, sighing, "The Dragon King's injuries have not yet healed; otherwise, he wouldn't be in such a hurry."
"Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill, I hope that one can be successfully refined; even if Tian Du Men must pay some price, it is worth it."
For the Dragon King, Tian Du Men can make a great concession.
The Heavenly Capital True Person prepared for being sacrificed, awaiting this particular communication from the Dragon King.
Longshe Shan.
The crowd stared at the long list, each falling silent.
A hush.
Even the Heavenly Capital Dragon King, looking at the list before him, was briefly stunned.
I was just talking… are you really, really, really…
Xinran Zhanglao closed his eyes: "Just as I thought, it has appeared again."
The main body acts this way, and the clone does the same; truly… amusing.
She couldn't smile; the Heavenly Capital Dragon King was no ordinary person, his strength unfathomable. If she provoked his anger, wouldn't that be…?
She immediately grasped her sword, ready to act at any moment.
Tianlian Zhenren pitied the Heavenly Capital Dragon King, muttering inwardly: "He appeared, he's back, he's about to start scheming."
This scene was so familiar; she herself had once endured such treatment.
Ordinary people have no right to have him list items; those without any strength aren't even entitled to see the list.
Heishanyang's pupils widened, staring at the youngster before him, thinking, "Sure enough, it's the youngster's clone; the temperament is the same."
"This kid is truly… if he can cheat, he'll cheat."
Regardless of who the opponent is or how strong, as long as they're manageable, he'll try to test and control them.
The other party demanded pills and came personally; Qinglong Daoren naturally had to set a trap—if he didn't, it would be a missed opportunity.
All were brought before him; if he didn't cheat once, Qinglong Daoren would truly be letting himself down.
Holy Maiden Bai Hang lowered her face, gazing at the list above, seeing many familiar spirit pills—all sixth- and seventh-grade spirit pills, each extremely precious, the required quantities were not small; the materials were decent, some even were thousand‑year‑old spirit pills, also in considerable amount.
With so many spirit pills, they could be fully cheated.
"Qinglong Daoist, is this list a bit excessive?"
"Is it excessive?" Qinglong Daoren smiled: "Not excessive, Holy Maiden Bai Hang. If you go outside and find any alchemist to refine an Eighth-grade Pill, the ingredients required would be several times more than mine. My price is very fair, honest to all."
"His Excellency the Dragon King, you must also know my price is very fair; this is because His Excellency the Dragon King himself has come personally. If it were others, such a favorable price wouldn't be offered. Dragon King, what do you think?"
The Heavenly Capital Dragon King scanned the list with a glance, recognized its contents, felt a bit stunned, yet remained very calm.
"If Qinglong Daoist can guarantee one Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill, then I, the King, can naturally agree to these items."
He is not a fool; to see the pills, otherwise, how could so many good things be given directly to Qinglong Daoren.
It requires a promise: at least one pill, at least one.
Holy Maiden Bai Hang looked at the Dragon King in surprise; the quantity of these spirit pills was considerable— even Tian Du Men would bleed heavily.
But the Dragon King agreed.
The Heavenly Capital Dragon King gave her a look, telling her not to speak, leaving everything to his handling.
Holy Maiden Bai Hang could only close her mouth, standing aside, watching Qinglong Daoren and the Heavenly Capital Dragon King.
