Chapter 1633
"What pills did they trade?" After speaking, Diewumeng felt some regret; this question shouldn't be asked, but she didn't know why, and she involuntarily spoke.
Wanting to take it back is not possible; the words are already out, cannot be retracted, Diewumeng can only brace herself and ask: "I don't necessarily need to know, I just want to understand a bit; after all, the relationship between the Heavenly Capital Dragon King and our Mangshan Demon Palace is tense, you know that."
"Daoist Qinglong, you survive in the Mangshan Mountain Range; naturally you wouldn't want our Mangshan Demon Palace to encounter trouble, right? The Tian Du Men where the Heavenly Capital Dragon King resides is entirely a human faction; humans and demon beasts have always been difficult to deal with; if they successfully settle in the Mangshan Mountain Range, do you think you could still live peacefully, Daoist?"
"Tian Du Men is very overbearing; even if they can restrain their disciples and not target you, Daoist, what about other human sects? They certainly wouldn't do that; just the Corpse Refining Sect alone, you cannot avoid it, and there are many other human sects, human... families, they are all a bunch of profit-chasing, unrighteous scoundrels."
"Once they see the huge profits the Mangshan Mountain Range brings, they will surely act without hesitation; by then, when the nest is overturned, how could any eggs remain intact?"
"The reasoning is this reasoning; Diewumeng spoke very reasonably, and Qinglong Daoren also accepted her view: humans are humans, demon beasts are demon beasts; he is now a demon beast, also in the Mangshan Mountain Range; if Mangshan Mountain encounters trouble, he wants to continue cultivating peacefully and gather resources, but it's not that easy."
"Humans won't give him resources, nor let him cultivate easily; if humans control the Mangshan Mountain Range, he might also become their prey, and whether he can survive is a question; unless Tian Du Men can take him away and protect him."
"The probability of such things is low, yet it will definitely happen; so far, how many times have human-demon beast conflicts occurred? Once the Mangshan Mountain Range weakens, humans will surely act without hesitation; after Zhang Mang's downfall, how many times have humans acted? The Mu Long family, Corpse Refining Sect, Ji Chen Sect, Tian Jian Men, and many other families."
"Although those families' actions are very covert, they indeed struck; in this battle, many people took advantage of the chaos, and the threat they posed is not small; once they sense something amiss, they immediately retreat."
"The losses are not small; many demon beasts of the Mangshan Demon Palace have died mysteriously, with no way to investigate."
"Daoist Diewumeng, your words are weighty; this time, Wu Mie Zhenren and his disciples from Tian Du Men came mainly for the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill." Qinglong Daoren had no intention of hiding it from her; since Diewumeng wanted to know, he told her.
Upon hearing this, Diewumeng furrowed her brows: "Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill, is that the pill the former demon emperor Zhang Mang wanted? The Eighth-grade Pill Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill?"
It's obvious she knows this pill and has heard of it; back when Zhang Mang was around, he also wanted this pill; who would have thought...
Last time they failed, got nothing, instead brought about their own demise; rather, it allowed the Heavenly Capital Dragon King to obtain the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill and make a breakthrough; if not for the huge disturbance during the breakthrough, which drew many humans to block them, perhaps... they would all have suffered.
How terrifying a complete Third Tribulation Heavenly Capital Dragon King would be; they all know it well, absolutely not allowing such an existence to appear.
"Not bad." Qinglong Daoren raised two fingers and said face-to-face: "This time, they demanded two Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pills and successfully took them away."
"What!" Diewumeng jumped in fright, her whole body leapt up, and all her hairs stood on end.
Her eyes locked tightly onto Qinglong Daoren, filled with disbelief.
She couldn't believe Qinglong Daoren really agreed and let them take away two Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pills; what does this mean?
The Eighth-grade Pill is the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill's most compatible medicine, tailor-made for him; its efficacy can be fully exerted; thinking of this, Diewumeng choked up, unable to stay calm.
"Daoist Qinglong, you're foolish; how could you agree to them?"
"The Heavenly Capital Dragon King surely suffered severe injuries and needs pills to recover; once he obtains two Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pills, he will quickly heal, and when he returns to his peak, that will be the time to act against us."
"You gave them two Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pills; hurry up and chase them back, don't let him obtain the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill."
Diewumeng became anxious; she could no longer stay calm nor remain here; she must go out to stop those two, absolutely not allowing them to leave the Mangshan Mountain Range.
The Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill must be retrieved; those two women need not be killed, but she will not allow them to take the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill back, absolutely not.
Qinglong Daoren spread his hands: "Daoist Diewumeng, you're a step late; they have already left the Mangshan Mountain Range."
"Even if you go after them now, you won't get them back; these two were prepared in advance, and moreover, two Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pills may not be enough to fully cure the Heavenly Capital Dragon King; his injuries are extremely severe; if I'm not mistaken, it should be lightning tribulation damage; the restorative effect of the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill is limited and cannot completely heal his wounds."
"As for you, no need to worry."
Qinglong Daoren is very clear about the effect of the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill; its potency is indeed strong, but its therapeutic effect is not strong.
This point, he can guarantee.
The Heavenly Capital Dragon King was injured while undergoing tribulation, struck by lightning; it likely injured his demon soul; attempting to heal it this way is unlikely.
"Are you sure?" Diewumeng narrowed her eyes, and did not... relax just yet.
"Rest assured, even if he obtains two Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pills, he will not fully recover within the next fifty years." Qinglong Daoren said firmly.
Fifty years of time is enough for many things to happen.
To others, fifty years is short, they can't accomplish much; but for Qinglong Daoren, fifty years can let his cultivation rise many times over, even reaching the Tribulation Realm is not impossible.
"Fifty years? That's still too short." Diewumeng still couldn't relax; fifty years will pass quickly.
"Not short; even without the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill, relying on the Heavenly Capital Dragon King's strength, he can slowly recover; Tian Du Men will spare no effort to help him heal his wounds, they can seek other substitute pills, but the result will be the same."
"If that's the case, why not accept this favor? Moreover, the people of Tian Du Men are very generous in their transactions."
"Lastly, this is the most important point: the threat of the Heavenly Capital Dragon King is great, but in his view it's not that big; at least, the Heavenly Capital Dragon King poses zero threat to him; even if they act against the Mangshan Mountain Range, it won't affect him."
"In the previous turmoil, the Corpse Refining Sect was the most disgusting; Tian Du Men wanted to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys, definitely targeting the Corpse Refining Sect."
"Their Mangshan Mountain Range is dangerous, with too many demon beasts; once war breaks out, it won't be an ordinary fight, it will engulf the entire Cangzhou; this is not what Tian Du Men wants, so the probability of Tian Du Men clashing with the Mangshan Mountain Range is low; at most, the Heavenly Capital Dragon King will come to warn Diewumeng, telling her not to act recklessly, just as before, well water does not violate river water."
