Chapter 299: Making a Deal

Seeing that the thing Song Qingming wanted was the Golden Thunder Fruit, Long Feng, who had been indifferent to him, became interested again, turned around, and stared at Song Qingming with interest for a few times.

"The junior obtained a pill formula a few years ago, which just happened to need this spiritual fruit. I have searched for a long time but failed to obtain it, so I had no choice but to come to Her Highness Fire Phoenix here to try my luck, thinking that you have many spiritual medicines here and might have..."

Before Song Qingming could finish speaking, Long Feng, who was already a bit impatient, directly interrupted him. "Kid! Although I don't know much about your human alchemy, I know you didn't come here for some broken pill formula this time. Are you still not planning to tell the truth?"

"Hehe! I hope Senior won't be angry. The junior didn't intend to deceive you, but this matter is really not easy to speak directly!" After speaking, Song Qingming directly took the initiative to untie the spirit beast bag on his waist and sent it to Long Feng.

He thought he could use an excuse to muddle through, but it seemed that Long Feng had long sensed the aura of the Skyfire Peng in his spirit beast bag. Seeing that he couldn't hide it, Song Qingming could only bite the bullet and hand over the spirit beast bag.

The reason Song Qingming didn't dare to directly say his purpose for this trip earlier was mainly because he was afraid that Long Feng, this demon king, would turn his face on the spot and vent his anger on him if he knew he was keeping his clansman in captivity.

"Hmph! It's just a little guy who hasn't opened its spiritual wisdom. In our demonic beast holy land, there are also human slaves. This is not a big deal. You don't have to be afraid that I will go to you for trouble for this!"

Song Qingming smiled and said nothing!

"Since you want to make a deal with me, then hand this little guy over to me! Come back in half a year, and I can guarantee that it will definitely advance successfully." Long Feng looked at the Skyfire Peng in the spirit beast bag carefully and suddenly opened his mouth to take this matter on himself.

Hearing Long Feng say this, Song Qingming was also a bit unexpected.

"I don't know what Senior's requirements are. You can just say it. As long as the junior can do it, I will do my best."

Long Feng chuckled and said: "No hurry. I haven't thought about what I want you to do yet. You can keep it in mind first. When I need you in the future, I will inform you. I guess you will know when you see me again."

"This..."

"Why! Are you not very willing?" Long Feng looked at Song Qingming with slanted eyes, somewhat puzzled.

"Willing, willing, Senior, don't misunderstand!" Having someone willing to help the Skyfire Peng advance like this was a great thing for Song Qingming. Who wouldn't be willing? Song Qingming was just a bit excited and incoherent just now.

Watching Long Feng leave here with the Skyfire Peng, Song Qingming slowly breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had dealt with Fire Phoenix a few times, facing this kind of Jin Dan-level demon king, Song Qingming would often feel an invisible pressure placed on his face.

In the final analysis, it was because he was not strong enough. If the Long Feng he faced just now was a demonic beast at the Foundation Establishment realm, Song Qingming would absolutely not be so passive.

Compared to the combat power of Long Feng, a Jin Dan level, his own Foundation Establishment cultivation was really too far apart. If the other party moved their hands casually, he wouldn't have a chance to run even if he wanted to.

This instinct carved into his bones also constantly reminded him that facing this kind of opponent whose strength far exceeded his own, even if the other party didn't have any unfavorable ideas toward him for the time being, he must always be cautious in his words and actions, so as not to be carried away by success and accidentally offend the other party, inviting disaster.

After knowing about the Golden Thunder Fruit at Ma Boshan's place, Song Qingming also had no way for a while. He thought that since he was powerless, he could only look at the Skyfire Peng's own luck. Anyway, demonic beasts are different from humans; their lifespan is relatively sufficient. Even if this guy can't advance successfully now, it will still have opportunities in the future.

It wasn't until half a month later, when Song Qingming was sorting out his storage bag, that he suddenly turned over the five-colored feather Fire Phoenix gave him, which made him have a sudden inspiration to come and ask them about the news of the Golden Thunder Fruit.

The Skyfire Peng could also be considered a demonic beast of the feather clan, and its bloodline was very close to Long Feng and Qingluan. Logically, there should be a very high probability of finding the Golden Thunder Fruit there.

It was just that it was not easy to escape from Fire Phoenix and the others back then, and he had taken the initiative to send himself to the door again. Would it be walking into a tiger's mouth? Although Fire Phoenix had the ability to come and find trouble with him at any time, staying in the human territory of Qinghe County would always make people feel more at ease.

After thinking about it in the cave dwelling for a few days, Song Qingming finally changed his mind and came to the depths of the Fuyun Mountain Range alone. It was just unexpected that he didn't see Fire Phoenix this time.

Fortunately, Long Feng had just agreed to the matter of the Skyfire Peng advancing, which made him inadvertently complete the purpose of this trip ahead of schedule. Although Song Qingming had owed him a favor to his face, as long as the Skyfire Peng could advance successfully, all this was worth it for him.

Anyway, he was just such a small Foundation Establishment cultivator, and his ability was already placed here. If Long Feng really made any outrageous demands, he could use his insufficient ability to muddle through at that time. At worst, he would think of ways to compensate him with some other things. In short, as long as it was something that could be taken out with the normal financial resources of the Song family, Song Qingming could give it. As for the others, Long Feng should not think about it.

Song Qingming could see that Long Feng could come to this meeting because of Fire Phoenix's authorization. Otherwise, with just a small human cultivator like him, how could he be qualified to make a deal with such a demon king.

Half a year later, a giant bird with wings spread more than two zhang wide suddenly flew over the top of Mount Funiu of the Song family.

"There is a demonic beast invasion, quickly activate the mountain-protecting formation!" Following a loud bell sound, the entire Mount Funiu instantly became lively, and a layer of five-colored light suddenly lit up at the top of the mountain, covering the entire Mount Funiu inside.

Looking at the giant bird in the sky, Song Changfeng couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his forehead.

"Not good, it's actually a second-tier demonic beast."

Now the two Foundation Establishment cultivators in the clan, Song Qingming had gone out more than ten days ago and hadn't returned, and Song Qingyu was stationed in Qinghefang far away and couldn't return for a while. Although the mountain-protecting formation of Mount Funiu had been changed to a second-tier formation, even without Foundation Establishment cultivators, it would be difficult for a second-tier demonic beast to break through in a short time. But if this demonic beast directly attacked the mortal town at the foot of the mountain, it would be hard to say.

The formations in places like Mujiao Town were all first-tier defensive formations and definitely couldn't block the attack of a second-tier demonic beast. The mortals in that place were the foundation of the Song family. Once breached, it would definitely suffer heavy losses, which was enough to make everyone in the Song family feel heartache.

Just when Song Changfeng was worried, a young man suddenly jumped down from the giant bird in the sky and directly passed through the mountain-protecting formation of Mount Funiu and landed in front of Song Changfeng.

"Qingming! Why is it you."
