Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
The smile on Long Chenyuan's face stiffened, then he immediately reacted, hurriedly putting away his casual attitude, cupping his fists and bowing to Xu Zhangqing, his tone much more respectful: "Welcome, Master Xu He! Just now I misspoke for a moment, I hope Master He will not take offense."
Xu Zhangqing waved his hand: "No matter."
Long Chenyuan let out a breath, while in his heart he marveled: "Just how long has it been, this person has actually advanced from a Spirit Nurturing Envoy to a Master He."
You must know, this is the Dongting Immortal Sect, one of the Three Great Immortal Sects.
The Spirit Fields below are not like those loose departments outside, on the contrary, management is strict.
Wanting to raise one's status and position in this kind of place, the difficulty is self-evident.
However, the person before him is young in years, yet is already one of the management layer.
But the more it is like this, the more stable the cooperation.
Li Sancai no longer spoke, retreating to the side to wait.
Head lowered, light flickering in his pupils, unknown what he was thinking.
Xu Zhangqing pointed at the chair to the side: "Sit down and talk."
Long Chenyuan nodded lightly, then stepped forward and sat down, then exchanged pleasantries: "It hasn't been long since we last met, and you've already been promoted to Master He, truly congratulations."
Regarding this, Xu Zhangqing's reaction was flat: "Just luck."
Words spoken thus, but whether it was Long Chenyuan or Li Sancai, neither believed it.
If there is no strength, identity, background, no matter how good the luck, it's useless.
After all, the higher the status, the greater the threats received.
Xu Zhangqing wasn't in a rush to ask about the cooperation, starting to chat about family matters: "How is your elder sister? How is the family?"
"Thanks to Master He's blessing, everything is good."
Long Chenyuan paused, then continued: "Currently, my elder sister is preparing to break through to Golden Core, therefore urgently needs a large amount of resources. As for the family... not much difference from before."
Xu Zhangqing nodded slightly: "Since you've come, it shows you've already considered clearly."
Long Chenyuan hesitated a moment, then probed: "Agree I agree, but the family feels seventy-thirty is a bit too much, wants to adjust it, what do you think?"
Xu Zhangqing heard this and remained expressionless: "How much do you want?"
Long Chenyuan took a deep breath: "Seventy percent is too high, although the Yaoguang Nine Domains' resources are rich, mining and transport both consume considerable manpower and material resources, how about we split fifty-fifty? If that really won't work, sixty-forty is fine too, mutual benefit and win-win!"
Xu Zhangqing revealed a smile-yet-not-smile expression: "The Immortal Sect already knows of this matter, and has agreed to cooperate. If you change the ratio, even if I agree, the higher-ups won't agree."
These words spoken, Long Chenyuan was shocked: "Even the Immortal Sect high-level knows about this matter?"
Xu Zhangqing affirmed: "Earlier, I attended a discussion, in front of the Great Elder, numerous Peak Masters, and representatives, I announced this news. So, seventy percent profit is the bottom line, no room for negotiation."
Long Chenyuan looked at the other's calm eyes, knew further haggling was useless, could only nod and agree: "Alright, we'll do as you say. Seventy percent it is, our Long Family accepts it."
Before coming, family members had instructed. "If you can fight for it then fight, if you can't get it then it doesn't matter. As long as the Immortal Sect agrees, it's equivalent to being bound together with the Long Family, letting them have greater confidence in the Yaoguang Nine Domains."
Next, the two people surrounded the details and began deep discussion.
Benefits, aren't something a sentence or two can make clear.
The Immortal Sect has the Immortal Sect's benefits.
The Spirit Fields have the Spirit Fields' benefits.
Xu Zhangqing has Xu Zhangqing's benefits.
Anyone dragged into it must distribute benefits, must be satisfied.
This chat, a full one hour passed, before the two preliminarily finished discussing.
Afterwards still need to sign a Spirit Talisman Contract, to prevent either side reneging, or even causing trouble.
When talks were about done, Xu Zhangqing called Second Disciple Lin Feng: "Feng'er, take this Dao Friend Long Chenyuan to the guest rooms."
Long Chenyuan stood up, smilingly asked: "Master Xu He, the scenery and environment here are not bad, I'll walk around a bit, no problem right?"
Xu Zhangqing nodded slightly: "No problem."
Lin Feng called out: "Sir, please follow me."
Long Chenyuan followed behind him, walking and walking suddenly stopped, couldn't help but ask again: "That, you said before, you would dispatch an Earth Grade Golden Core to station at the Long Family..."
Xu Zhangqing hooked his mouth corner: "Rest assured, what I promise I absolutely won't go back on."
Long Chenyuan set his heart at ease, followed Lin Feng to the guest rooms.
After the person walked far, Li Sancai stepped forward: "Master He..."
Xu Zhangqing raised hand to interrupt: "Since there's no outsiders now, Senior Brother needn't use honorifics."
Li Sancai froze a moment, then continued: "Junior Brother, our Spirit Fields besides you have no second Golden Core True Person, especially still an Earth Grade Golden Core."
Long Chenyuan stood up, smiling as he asked, "Master Xu He, the scenery and environment here are quite good; would there be any problem if I walk around a bit?"
Xu Zhangqing nodded slightly: "No problem."
Lin Feng called out a greeting: "Sir, please follow me."
Long Chenyuan followed behind him, walking along, when he suddenly stopped and couldn't help but ask again: "That is, you said before that you would dispatch an Earth Grade Golden Core to be stationed at the Long Family..."
Xu Zhangqing curled the corner of his mouth: "Rest assured, I never go back on what I promise."
Long Chenyuan set his mind at ease and followed Lin Feng to the guest room.
Once the people had walked far away, Li Sancai stepped forward: "He..."
Xu Zhangqing raised a hand to interrupt: "Since there are no outsiders now, Senior Brother need not use honorifics."
Li Sancai was stunned for a moment, then continued: "Junior Brother, in our Spirit Field, aside from you there is no second Golden Core True Person, especially one who is still an Earth Grade Golden Core."
Xu Zhangqing smiled. "I have my own arrangements."
Li Sancai hesitated for a moment, then mused, "Perhaps we can contact Chu Qiu or Pei Mo, have them return from the Central Region to help?"
Xu Zhangqing asked in surprise, "They contacted you on their own initiative?"
Li Sancai answered truthfully, "Chu Qiu hasn't contacted me, but yesterday Pei Mo revealed to me that he is preparing to return to the Immortal Sect to break through to Golden Core."
Xu Zhangqing looked thoughtful. "Old Pei's Fire restricts Metal Spiritual Root; without absolute certainty he wouldn't attempt a breakthrough, unless he awakened a Water Spiritual Root."
Come to think of it, so many years have passed, even Hu Bugui is about to reach Golden Core, yet he is only just starting to prepare — this speed is a bit slow.
Li Sancai exclaimed in admiration, "Junior Brother, you really hit the mark.
Ling Bi happened to obtain a treasure that can awaken a Water Spiritual Root, and thinking of Pei Mo's years of uncomplaining assistance, therefore helped him awaken it."
Xu Zhangqing thought it over, then finally waved his hand. "Even if Pei Mo returns, he is only a Foundation Establishment cultivator; he can't help for the time being.
What's more, who enters the Long Family — I've already arranged it."
Li Sancai thought for a moment. "Then when he returns, should we recruit him?"
Currently on the Immortal Sect side, there aren't many people who can help Xu Zhangqing.
Hu Bugui is just a Spirit Beast seller, and he doesn't even have Golden Core.
Zhao Ziyue may be Golden Core, even ranked Earth Grade, but he only wants to fish.
I myself have become a Spirit Nurturer, but I can only exert effort on the Spirit Field side.
Xu Zhangqing revealed a strange smile. "Senior Brother, how did you start poaching?"
You should know, Pei Mo, Chu Qiu, Han Xin and the others are all Li Lingbi Team's people.
Li Sancai's old face reddened. "I... I'm just trying to help you."
Xu Zhangqing said seriously, "If Chu Shixiong returns, based on the bond between him and me, as long as I ask he will absolutely stay.
However Pei Mo is different; his heart is set on the Outside."
The words had just fallen, and the person vanished together with the lotus seat.
Seeing this, Li Sancai unconsciously clenched his fists. "I... should reach Golden Core!"
……
……
In the cultivation chamber, only to see blue spiritual light ripple around Xu Zhangqing.
Not long after, a human figure separated from his body.
After a while, the figure gradually solidified, turning into a man.
Dressed in a blue long robe, handsome features, elegant temperament.
This person was precisely one of the avatars, the Water Spiritual Root Gonggong!
