Upon seeing her father, Zhang Yunxi鈥檚 eyes betrayed her respect for him.
She had grown up listening to her father鈥檚 stories, so she admired this legendary man!
Zhang Yunxi respectfully bowed. 鈥淚 have successfully completed my mission and brought back the sacred item. 鈥?
The Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader gradually nodded. 鈥淕ood job. 鈥?His voice was emotionless.
Zhang Yunxi hesitated for a moment before she said, 鈥淓steemed father, when this Divine Firmament Drager Pendant appeared, the Divine Lightning Origin exploded and assimilated into a few fated people.
鈥淚f they train in our sect鈥檚 lightning techniques, they will definitely be able to have high accomplishments. I think that we should send our people to guide them into the sacred ground and train. 鈥?
Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader kept silent for a while, then replied calmly, 鈥淧ermitted. 鈥?
Although his voice was not cold, it was still emotionless. It was as if the person sitting there was not a living person but a robot.
Zhang Yunxi stared at the Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader and sighed after a long time. 鈥淭hen I鈥檒l take my leave. 鈥?
The Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader did not reply, so Zhang Yunxi turned and left. Then, the doors of the Sacred Leader鈥檚 palace closed once again.
From the beginning till the end, the Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader had not shown even a shred of concern toward his daughter.
The old Taoist priest tilted his head as he looked at the Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader. 鈥淵ou鈥檝e secretly practiced that evil technique again?鈥?
The Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader looked at the old Taoist priest. 鈥淪enior Brother, you know that it is not an evil technique. 鈥?
The old Taoist priest pouted. 鈥淵ou鈥檙e severing all your emotions and desires. Is it still not counted as an evil technique?鈥?
The Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader said calmly, 鈥淪enior Brother, you鈥檙e overly stubborn. 鈥?
The old Taoist priest snorted. 鈥淛ust to complete Decalamity? The one who is being stubborn is you!鈥?
Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader asked, 鈥淵unxi said that the Divine Firmament Drager Pendant is in your hands?鈥?
The old Taoist priest nodded. 鈥淲hy? Your daughter asked me to safeguard it. 鈥?
The Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader said, 鈥淭hank you, Senior Brother. You can give the jade pendant to me now. 鈥?
The old Taoist priest said righteously, 鈥淣o, I promised Little Xiao鈥檈r that no one could snatch it away from me. 鈥?
Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader: 鈥???鈥?
The lightning surrounding the Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader was cackling while the rising and sinking thick heavenly aura was surging non-stop. It was obvious that his emotion had fluctuated.
鈥淪enior Brother, the Drager Pendant is the token of a Sacred Leader. 鈥?
The old Taoist priest smiled and said, 鈥淪o what? You鈥檙e not the first Sacred Leader without the token!鈥?
Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader replied, 鈥淭he Drager Pendant is related to the rise and fall of our sect. Senior Brother, please stop joking. 鈥?
The old Taoist priest laughed in amusement. 鈥淥h my, Junior Brother, you鈥檝e finally become anxious?鈥?Alright, I can give you the Divine Firmament Drager Pendant. However, you have to promise me a few conditions. 鈥?
The Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader said coldly, 鈥淪enior Brother, please speak straightforwardly. 鈥?
The old Taoist priest sized up the Sacred Leader. 鈥淟augh for me first, then. 鈥?
The lighting jumping on the Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader鈥檚 body became even more violent, and the heavenly aura was also falling apart. His eyes were as pressing as the lightning, staring daggers at the old Taoist priest.
鈥淪enior Brother, please don鈥檛 joke around. 鈥?
The old Taoist priest twitched his lips. 鈥淎ren鈥檛 you training the Heavenly Dao Sutra to complete Decalamity?鈥?
鈥淴iao鈥檈r has already brought back the Drager Pendant. Why haven鈥檛 you disposed of that technique? What are you waiting for!?鈥?
The Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader replied coldly, 鈥淵ou don鈥檛 understand, Senior Brother. I have already seen the new realm. 鈥?
鈥淚t鈥檚 difficult to reach the top by following the Dharmic Dao. I wish to walk a new Dao. The Heavenly Dao Sutra is crucial, so It鈥檚 impossible for me to give it up!鈥?
鈥淥h!鈥?The old Taoist priest pouted. 鈥淭hen, go and walk your new Dao! To prevent you from suffering a Qi Deviation, I鈥檒l help you keep this pendant. In case you refuse to acknowledge your relatives and friends, then this pendant will be lost once again. 鈥?
After finishing, the old Taoist priest turned and walked toward the Sacred Leader鈥檚 palace鈥檚 exit.
In that instant, the whole Sacred Leader鈥檚 palace was filled with lightning, and the heavenly aura was surging like a tsunami.
Just as the old Taoist priest had stepped half a foot outside the Sacred Leader鈥檚 palace, a strange peal of laughter could be heard from the mist.
鈥淗ehehehehe~鈥?
That鈥檚 right, the Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader was laughing!
The old Taoist priest鈥檚 lips were slightly twitching. He was holding back so badly his lips were slanted.
The Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader said coldly, 鈥淚 haven鈥檛 laughed in more than 100 years, so I鈥檓 not used to it. Senior Brother, please don鈥檛 laugh at me. I have already done as Senior Brother said, so you can give me the pendant now!鈥?
The old Taoist priest replied, 鈥淚t鈥檚 only the first condition, there are three more!鈥?
Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader replied coldly, 鈥淪enior Brother, please speak straight to the point. 鈥?
The old Taoist priest counted with his fingers. 鈥淭he first condition! Since I saved your daughter, I鈥檒l need to receive remuneration. According to my price in the black market, each time I make a move costs 1, 000, 000 Spirit Stones.
鈥淪eeing that it was to save Little Xiao鈥檈r, I鈥檒l give you a 12% discount. Also, your daughter even ate a Great Golden-Winged Eagle鈥檚 thigh.
鈥淎fter the discount, the remuneration must be at least 500, 000 Spirit Stones, don鈥檛 you think?鈥?You can鈥檛 just refuse to acknowledge this!鈥?
The Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader said coldly, 鈥?, 500 Spirit Crystals. Senior Brother, please state your second condition!鈥?
鈥淣ice!鈥?The old Taoist priest chuckled before saying, 鈥淪enior Brother, as you can see, I am already in the Soul Formation stage, but I don鈥檛 have a Spirit Mountain. Could you let me pick a Spirit Mountain to train?鈥?
鈥淭his is impossible, definitely impossible!鈥?
The Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader interrupted the old Taoist priest, the heavenly aura around him surging vigorously.
The so-called Spirit Mountain referred to a mountain peak that had bred a Spirit Stone Vein. Within the Divine Firmament Small World, there were a total of 36 Spirit Mountains. As long as one鈥檚 cultivation level reached the Soul Formation stage, they could become the leader of a Spirit Mountain and accept disciples.
Originally, Elder Azure Lotus, Chu Longhe, also had his own Spirit Mountain, and its quality was excellent. The problem was that this idiot was so obsessed with training the Tinder Sutra when he was in seclusion that he had almost sucked the Spirit Stone Vein dry.
Afterward, the spirit medicines, spirit herbs, and spiritual flowers on the Spirit Mountain directly withered, and it almost became a barren mountain.
According to a Spirit Ore Appraiser, this Spirit Stone Vein could only recover its vitality after at least 1, 000 years.
One had to know that Spirit Stone Vines were cultivation sects鈥?foundations.
Only those cultivation sects with one or more Spirit Stone Vinea were qualified to be called a Blessed-Land.
Only those with three or more Spirit Stone Veins were qualified to be called a Grotto-Heaven.
Only those with 10 or more Spirit Stone Veins were qualified to be called a Sacred Ground.
Although this was just one of the deciding factors, it was still enough to show the importance of a Spirit Stone Vein.
Chu Longhe had already damaged such an important strategic resource, and now, he actually wanted a second one? How could the Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader agree?
The Divine Firmament鈥檚 Sacred Leader said helplessly, 鈥淪enior Brother, state your third condition. 鈥?
The old Taoist priest smirked and said, 鈥淭he third condition is very simple. Our sect鈥檚 ancestors had promised that the fated one who finds the Drager Pendant and completes the Lightning Imperial Sutra could become the Saint of our sacred ground. If he is willing, he can even marry the Saintess.
鈥淛unior Brother, you have both a son and daughter, while even that long-faced Fang Chang is your disciple.
鈥淎s such, you can鈥檛 fight with me for that fated person. He has to become my apprentice. Also, his monthly Saint salary, I will help him collect it. That鈥檚 right when he marries your daughter, you can鈥檛 ask for a betrothal gift.
鈥淵eap, basically just these three requests. It鈥檚 not too much, right?鈥?
The Sacred Leader鈥檚 reluctant voice echoed from within the fog-like heavenly aura. 鈥淵ou want to be the master of our sect鈥檚 Saint?鈥?
At that moment, the bright lightning was cackling, and the heavenly aura stopped surging.
鈥淪enior Brother, bring our Spirit Mountains鈥?map over! Which Spirit Mountain did you take a liking to?鈥
