Chapter 1596

"Since that mirror is useless, why won't you give it back to me?" Biluochun, following Heishanyang's words, asked Heishanyang whether that mirror was useful—he could not possibly not know.

Unimportant things, Biluochun would not bother to ask about them; but that's also true—for others, that mirror is indeed useless, even worse than an ordinary Spiritual Artifact, just a mirror that cannot be seen or used, no different from trash.

And Biluochun knew the importance of that mirror, also knew that this mirror was extremely important to him, incomparable to any other Spiritual Artifact; even if he offended Heishanyang, he would still ask about it. That mirror was originally buried together with the patriarch, and few people knew its whereabouts. He had thought this mirror would be the Azure Heaven Sect's final trump card, but no one expected Heishanyang to find it and take it away.

Taken together with the Azure Heaven Scripture, that moment was the Azure Heaven Sect's most frenzied and furious day; they would spare no expense to find Heishanyang, even if it meant killing Heishanyang to seize everything belonging to the Azure Heaven Sect, even if it offended the backers behind Heishanyang.

As a result, Heishanyang still escaped; the Azure Heaven Sect, for this, spared no effort searching for thousands of years—each generation's Azure Heaven Sect Sect Master's task was to retrieve it, otherwise the Azure Heaven Sect would exist in name only.

"Giving it to you is also useless; that thing is total junk, I threw it away." Heishanyang said offhandedly, making up an excuse—anyway, the mirror isn't with him, so them looking for it is pointless, and Heishanyang won't admit it.

Biluochun feigned anxiety and said: "Where did you throw it?"

"I forgot." Heishanyang answered offhandedly, seeming to have truly forgotten.

Biluochun didn't believe such nonsense; at their level, many memories simply cannot be forgotten—if you think about it, you can still recall them; the notion of forgetting is impossible. Clearly, Heishanyang didn't want to tell him the truth.

This shows one thing: the Heishanyang before him is deceiving him; the mirror must be on its person, hidden away, impossible to have been discarded.

"Your Excellency Demon King, you can see it clearly isn't willing to hand it over; that mirror is extremely important to me. I swear, if you give me the mirror, I can find anything you desire, even a medium-grade spirit vein—I'll find one for you."

Longshe Shan is indeed not bad; it needs spirit veins, and strictly speaking, anyone needs spirit veins.

Compared to spirit veins, other things have no comparability; spirit veins represent the future, the foundation, everything.

Longshe Shan is indeed not bad; if it had one more spirit vein, it would become more beautiful and more suitable for cultivation; the importance of a medium-grade spirit vein is obvious. Biluochun could see that Qinglong Daoren wanted a spirit vein, a medium-grade spirit vein—that is one of the foundations of a sect.

Even the Azure Heaven Sect doesn't have many; if given to Qinglong Daoren, the Azure Heaven Sect would at least decline as well—this shows the importance of a medium-grade spirit vein; even if trading with others and giving them many elixirs, one cannot exchange for a medium-grade spirit vein.

Low-grade spirit veins are hard to find, let alone medium-grade ones; the gap between them is enormous.

Qinglong Daoren these years also wanted a spirit vein, but unfortunately no one is willing to part with one; the Luotian White Snake Clan has no surplus spirit vein and doesn't want to use its own; as for the Huang Family, needless to say, they have been in a state of hibernation these years and dare not act against other clans.

Hide it for a period, properly digest all gains, and continue waiting for other matters.

As for Diewumeng, needless to say—being the Mangshan Demon Emperor, he also cannot easily trade spirit veins; this shows the importance of spirit veins.

"Is that true?" Qinglong Daoren's heart stirred—a medium-grade spirit vein, who wouldn't want one?

Longshe Shan needs a medium-grade spirit vein; the Nine-Grade Farm also needs one. Adding another medium-grade spirit vein would at least let his Nine-Grade Farm reach a higher level; the spiritual herbs planted there would grow faster, bringing him abundant resources.

Their future hinges on this—spiritual herbs are resources, they are elixirs.

None can be lacking.

"Of course, I, Biluochun, can find a medium-grade spirit vein for Your Excellency Demon King." Biluochun gritted his teeth; to obtain that mirror, he was willing to pay a huge price.

A medium-grade spirit vein—this price is indeed great and also very rare.

Qinglong Daoren's heart stirred.

His gaze shifted to Heishanyang, who immediately panicked and explained: "Kid, that mirror isn't on me; you don't need to stare at me."

"If you want it, go look outside yourself; I threw it out there back then."

Qinglong Daoren smiled faintly: "Where did you throw it?"

Heishanyang fell silent, unable to continue fabricating.

He also couldn't deceive Qinglong Daoren; those lines might fool others, but not Qinglong Daoren—this kid isn't like the ordinary people he's encountered before, who could be brushed off with a couple of casual remarks.

Moreover, the outcome of trying to deceive Qinglong Daoren is dire; Heishanyang took a deep breath and said: "Kid, I really have nothing here; the mirror isn't with me either—even if you killed me, you wouldn't get it."

Having said that, Heishanyang ran away.

Qinglong Daoren didn't stop him or speak; instead, he apologized to Biluochun: "You also saw that it doesn't seem to have the mirror you want on its person."

Biluochun gave a bitter smile, didn't continue questioning the matter, knowing he had been impatient.

He had obtained the Azure Heaven Scripture; later he would slowly request more. This cooperation had been achieved, and he needed to continue showing his sincerity, letting the Demon King before him nod—then future cooperation would naturally go much smoother.

"If that's the case, let's talk about it later, Your Excellency Demon King—there's something I'm not sure whether I should mention." Biluochun said, feigning mystery.

"Go ahead and say it." Qinglong Daoren waved his hand, letting him speak directly.

Biluochun lowered his voice and said: "The Corpse Refining Sect is planning a major move, and it's aimed at Your Excellency Demon King."

The Extreme Yin Corpse Commander has died; the first Corpse Commander suffered a setback, but Your Excellency still needs to be cautious.

Qinglong Daoren, hearing this, asked doubtfully: "How did you learn this news?"

Biluochun smiled and said: "The Corpse Refining Sect approached the Azure Heaven Sect; our Azure Heaven Sect's Sect Master refused them. I heard they are about to act against the Mangshan Mountain Range, waiting for the day the Mangshan Demon Emperor undergoes his tribulation, intending to utterly destroy the Mangshan Demon Palace."

"I also know they've allied with many people, gathered several forces—you'd better be careful."

Having delivered this news, Biluochun left, turning away.

Qinglong Daoren let him leave the Formation; this kid had some of his arrangements on him, unbeknownst to gods or ghosts; Biluochun neither noticed nor knew of these means on his person, and likely wouldn't notice them.

"This kid is quite sensible."

Qinglong Daoren praised him; Biluochun is a smart person—at the very least, he knows how to read the situation and what to say when.
