Chapter 1627

I don't have the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill either; if I did, I would naturally give it to you, but the problem is I don't have it. Qinglong Daoren looked embarrassed, as if it weren't that I didn't want to help you.

Bai Hang Holy Maiden gave a look to her master Wu Mie Zhenren, who instantly understood, immediately took out a storage bag and handed it to Bai Hang Holy Maiden; after receiving it, Bai Hang Holy Maiden directly handed it to Qinglong Daoren and softly said: "What's inside is what we're giving you; there's also a spiritual vein, and there are ten portions of the essence blood of the Heavenly Capital Dragon King, and all kinds of materials total ten portions; moreover, we've also brought you quite a few good things, hoping you'll be satisfied."

Qinglong Daoren reluctantly took the storage bag, then extended his spiritual sense into it, saw what was inside, and couldn't help but say, "Tian Du Men really is Tian Du Men; a major sect is indeed different—look at this sincerity, it's overflowing."

Compared to others' transactions, this is much more generous, and moreover, he has completely changed his previous attitude, becoming different.

Qinglong Daoren stowed it away without changing his expression; this is his storage bag, naturally it belongs to him.

Bai Hang Holy Maiden, seeing this, rubbed her hands and asked, "Qinglong Daoist friend, is that the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill?"

Everything else doesn't matter; only the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill is urgently needed.

Qinglong Daoren waved his hand: "All the items have been brought; I will refine a batch for you these few days, guaranteeing your satisfaction."

Wu Mie Zhenren anxiously asked: "Can you give it to us right now?"

Qinglong Daoren spread his hands: "Asking me is useless; I have no extra Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill. If you urgently need it, I can go refine it for you right now, but even if I start refining now, you'll still need to wait a few days—I don't know if you can wait."

Wu Mie Zhenren wanted to continue speaking, but Bai Hang Holy Maiden immediately spoke up to cut off her chance.

Yes, we can wait.

After saying that, Bai Hang Holy Maiden turned back, shook her head at her master, indicating she shouldn't speak; leave this to her, as she's more professional in handling the pill trade—master, just stay quiet and stand still.

Qinglong Daoren greatly admired Bai Hang Holy Maiden; she's a smart person who also understands his meaning, far smarter than Wu Mie Zhenren, this kind of sword cultivator—most sword cultivators are like that, with a relatively straightforward and blunt personality; many words, they fail to grasp the deeper meaning.

We'll just wait at Longshe Shan. Bai Hang Holy Maiden didn't leave; instead, she settled down.

Wu Mie Zhenren wanted to speak, but in the end she didn't.

Leave it to this disciple to handle; at times like this, we can only trust Bai Hang Holy Maiden—if she speaks, it will only make things worse.

Tianlian Zhenren and Xinran Zhanglao saw this, exchanged a glance, and both took another look at Bai Hang Holy Maiden; this woman is very smart, not a clueless novice, nor someone who understands nothing.

This woman is talent; perhaps in the future she will become their sister.

Regarding the two women's eye contact, Qinglong Daoren didn't notice and didn't know what they were thinking; he understood Bai Hang Holy Maiden's meaning—that she would leave only after obtaining the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill—and if he were to refine pills, let him do so.

If they don't get the pill in hand, they won't leave; they'll keep staying here and bothering him.

No problem, if you want to stay, just stay. Xinran Zhanglao, you arrange for the two of them. Qinglong Daoren gave Xinran Zhanglao a look; Xinran Zhanglao understood, came over and led the two women to settle down.

After Tianlian Zhenren saw them leave, she sent a mental transmission asking, "Qinglong Daoist friend, why are you deliberately making things difficult for them?"

From Qinglong Daoren's reaction, it's clear he definitely has the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill that those two women need, yet he didn't take it out to give them; instead, he deliberately made things difficult for the two of them, which is strange—she doesn't really understand.

Logically speaking, Bai Hang Holy Maiden was so straightforward, directly giving him all the materials; given Qinglong Daoren's reputation, it's impossible for him to make things difficult for them.

He should have readily given them the pills, but he didn't; instead, he chose to delay for several days, claiming nothing has been refined yet—all of that is deceit.

She knows Qinglong Daoren still cannot refine the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill himself; it's his husband who refines them, and he also has some pills on hand.

I'm not making things difficult for them; I'm doing it for their own good. I definitely have the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill in my possession—if they ask, I'll give it to them. Wouldn't that tell those two that I have many Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pills? Then next time, if they directly ask me, wouldn't I have to give them?

In that case, whenever they need any pill, they'd just ask me and I'd have to give it to them—wouldn't I become their pill supplier? Then anything they want could be realized.

I want them to feel the pill is hard-won, and also let them know your difficulties; if the pill is too easy to obtain, they won't learn to cherish it—if next time we reduce the trade materials, would I also have to refine pills for them?

That's obviously impossible; for anything, they need to know the difficulty—only when something is hard to obtain will they cherish it.

Tianlian Zhenren, upon hearing this, suddenly understood.

She looked at Qinglong Daoren and said, "You really thought this through; these are things I couldn't have imagined."

Compared to you, I realize how naive I am.

Before, she was very naive, thinking she was just unlucky; now it seems she falls short of Chen Chuyang in every way, and also short of this incarnation, Qinglong Daoren.

Such an obvious principle, I don't understand it, but Xinran Zhanglao grasps it instantly—this comparison shows the gap.

Naivety is fine too—not overthinking, not scheming against others. Qinglong Daoren smiled, saying, "Such a woman is also good; at least there's no need to worry too much, nor to overburden oneself."

Then how many days do you intend to leave them hanging? Tianlian Zhenren, after knowing the specific reason, also understood the necessity of doing so.

Not many—just a few days. The more anxious they are, the less we can let them have their way; these days, you and Xinran Zhanglao should keep them at bay, don't reveal any flaws. Qinglong Daoren instructed again; he wasn't worried about Xinran Zhanglao's side, but worried about Tianlian Zhenren.

Tianlian Zhenren heard the implication in Qinglong Daoren's words, gave him a sideways glance, and said, "Don't worry; I'll go back into seclusion for a few days, then emerge after they leave—okay?"

Hahaha, fine. Qinglong Daoren nodded, very pleased with Tianlian Zhenren's behavior; if he can't keep it hidden, then he'll go into seclusion, seeing no one, thus preventing any leaks.

Wu Mie Zhenren and her disciple returned to the room, got briefly acquainted, and Wu Mie Zhenren asked, "Bai Hang, what do you think he means by this?"

Bai Hang Holy Maiden shook her head: "I don't know."

Really? Wu Mie Zhenren suspected this disciple definitely knew something but wasn't telling her.

Master, just rest easy for a few days; you needn't worry about the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill—you'll definitely be able to obtain it. As for you, stop thinking about getting him to join Tian Du Men; it's impossible. Bai Hang Holy Maiden said this earnestly, to let her master give up that hope.

Wu Mie Zhenren questioned doubtfully, "Why impossible? My Tian Du Men is one of the strongest sects in Cangzhou; for him to join Tian Du Men would be his honor."
