After the victory of Xiaoyao Sect over Hunyuan Sect, they were busy rebuilding the mountain gate.
Although we want to eliminate those evil cultivators who are causing trouble in the world, we are unable to do so due to lack of manpower.
For a time, the Wanjian Sect, which punished evil and eradicated evil, gained a great reputation, surpassing the Xiaoyao Sect.
Tang Chan, the leader of Wanjian Sect, quietly headed towards Hunyuan Sect with two Yuanying elders in his sect.
Arriving near the Hunyuan Sect, Tang Chan said respectfully to the two master uncles.
"Uncle Zhao, Uncle Wen, my master is too pedantic. If he comes to exchange for spiritual veins, I'm afraid..."
The leader, the old man surnamed Zhao, stroked his beard and said, "Don't worry, we have our own discretion in this matter."
Another female sword cultivator named Wen also nodded slightly.
"Six spiritual veins are already too many for Xiaoyao Sect. We are sincere in exchange. I believe they will not refuse."
After hearing what the two uncles said, Tang Chan's heart immediately dropped, and the three of them headed towards the Hunyuan Sect together.
The old man surnamed Zhao swept his consciousness and found that there were only four of the six spiritual veins left in the Hunyuan Sect, and he couldn't help but secretly call it a fluke.
Fortunately, they arrived quickly, otherwise all six spiritual veins would have been refined, and they wouldn't be able to go to Xiaoyao Sect to ask for the spiritual veins.
At the same time, Sheng Qingyun, who was refining his spiritual veins, also discovered the three members of the Wanjian Sect.
She frowned slightly.
On the day the Xiaoyao Sect's mountain gate was breached, no one from the Wanjian Sect came.
When they sent troops to attack Hunyuan Sect, Wanjian Sect also did not contribute any force.
Now that Granny Gui and Zhenjun Hunyuan are dead, the Blood Infant Ancestor has escaped, the Wanjian Sect has come out instead.
Sheng Qingyun stopped refining his spiritual veins and faced the three men from Wanjian Sect with a bad tone.
"What do you think you are doing when you come all the way here?"
The old man surnamed Zhao clasped his fists and said, "Fellow Taoist Sheng, you are fine.
I heard that Xiaoyao Sect has a powerful Dharma cultivator, I wonder where that Taoist friend is now?"
Sheng Qingyun sneered in her heart. When the Xiaoyao Sect was attacked by evil cultivators, she and Lao Ye sought rescue from the Wanjian Sect.
But as the sect leader, Tang Chan directly rejected the two men's request for help, saying that the Wanjian Sect was beyond its reach and could not help.
Now that the Xiaoyao Sect has successfully overcome the crisis and eradicated the Hunyuan Sect, they are no longer too far away.
"Since the evil cultivators started the chaos, the Hanshan Sect was destroyed, Wuliang Mountain proclaimed itself a sect, and the Miaodan Sect surrendered, the five major sects have ceased to exist in name only."
Sheng Qingyun glanced at the three of them and said in a cold voice, "My Xiaoyao Sect and your Wanjian Sect have nothing to say. Where did you come from and where are you going?"
The old man surnamed Zhao's face darkened. Since the purpose of this trip had not been achieved, he could not get angry.
The female swordsman surnamed Wen also seemed a little worried on her face, but it was an indisputable fact that Wanjian Sect turned a blind eye to Xiaoyao Sect's request for help.
Tang Chan took a step forward, bowed deeply and said, "Senior Sheng, please calm down. Everything is the fault of this junior and has nothing to do with the two uncles.
When you and Senior Ye asked for help, one of our disciples was attacked by evil cultivators. Master and the two uncles were unable to move away. It is not that our sect refused to save them."
"The matter has come to this, and it is meaningless to talk about the rights and wrongs of the past. From now on, you, the Wanjian Sect, and I, the Xiaoyao Sect, will each go their own way!"
Sheng Qingyun didn't want to say much and said in a dull voice.
A look of embarrassment appeared on Tang Chan's face, "Senior Sheng, how can we break off our sect's hundreds of years of friendship so easily?
Moreover, although the Hunyuan Sect was destroyed, the old monster of the Blood Infant and the leader of the Hunyuan Sect escaped, so we have to guard against them."
Sheng Qingyun still had a cold face, "I don't dare to be friends with the Wanjian Sect."
Seeing that Sheng Qingyun was so careless, the old man surnamed Zhao had a trace of worry in his eyes.
"Fellow Daoist Sheng, it's not that the Wanjian Sect has any opinion on whether to save me or not, so why do you just refuse to believe it?"
Sheng Qingyun sneered and could hardly control the anger in his heart.
"It was not your Wanjian Sect who was almost destroyed, and it was not your direct senior brothers and fellow disciples who died. How can you feel the same as me?
You are rushing here eagerly now, probably not because you want to tell me these things, but because of your spiritual veins!"
When his purpose was revealed, the old man surnamed Zhao's face became hot and he spoke bluntly.
"Fellow Daoist Sheng, I, the Wanjian Sect, don't owe you anything, and I have no obligation to take risks to help you. You don't need to be so aggressive!
Our trip is indeed for spiritual veins. I would like to exchange a Geng gold mine and a secret iron mine for two spiritual veins. What do you think?"
"Will you tell me your intention earlier? It won't be long before you talk about it."
Sheng Qingyun sneered, shook her head and refused without thinking.
"A Geng gold mine and a secret iron mine just want to exchange two of my spiritual veins. I'm dreaming!"
The old man surnamed Zhao had a hint of dissatisfaction in his expression, "Fellow Daoist Sheng, I am sincerely trading with you.
According to the market conditions, one Geng gold mine plus Mystic iron mine is more than enough to exchange for two spiritual veins."
"What's going on? I only know that spiritual energy has become increasingly scarce in recent years, and even the spiritual veins are drying up much faster than before."
Sheng Qingyun said leisurely, "Since you said you are sincere in the deal, I will give you three Geng gold mines, plus two secret iron mines, in exchange for a spiritual vein. No more."
The old man surnamed Zhao changed his face in an uproar, "Five spiritual stone mines only cost one spiritual vein, you might as well rob it!"
The female cultivator surnamed Wen, who had never spoken a word, also frowned secretly, feeling that Sheng Qingyun's offer was too much.
"Don't want to change? Then forget it, don't say I didn't give you a chance."
Seeing that several people were disappointed, Sheng Qingyun was in a good mood.
Seeing that the deal was about to collapse, Tang Chan smiled bitterly and once again held his hands in greeting.
"Uncle Master Sheng, don't be joking. We, the Wanjian Sect, only have six spiritual mines. We can give up to three spiritual mines in exchange for two spiritual veins. What do you think?"
The ceding of three spiritual mines made Tang Chan very painful.
But the sect's spiritual veins are drying up day by day, which is also a helpless move.
We can't really let Master take risks and go to Shiwan Mountain.
Sheng Qingyun shook his head and refused, "Five spiritual mines, exchange for one spiritual vein, not even a word is missing. If you can't get it, there is no need to talk about it!"
After saying that, she was too lazy to pay attention to the others and went back to continue refining her spiritual veins.
The three members of Wanjian Sect were left where they were, neither leaving nor staying.
The female cultivator surnamed Wen sighed softly, "Senior Brother Zhao, the lion of Xiaoyao Sect has opened his mouth, what should we do?"
The old man named Zhao was silent for a moment, with a look of helplessness in his eyes.
"Nine times out of ten, fellow Daoist Sheng, you are still resenting me, Wanjian Sect, for not helping me, alas!"
"You two uncles, don't worry, doesn't Xiaoyao Sect still have a True Lord Nascent Soul?
That senior is not here right now, and is probably transporting his spiritual veins back to Xiaoyao Sect."
Tang Chan's eyes showed a thoughtful look, "When she comes back, this matter may turn around."
"Yes, I will wait here and discuss it with Daoist Xu after she comes back."
The old man surnamed Zhao nodded happily. Spiritual veins are crucial to the future development of Wanjian Sect.
Using only two spiritual veins to produce three spiritual mines is a sure-profit deal for the Xiaoyao Sect.
This transaction is a matter of mutual benefit and win-win.
I hope that fellow Taoist Xu can think rationally.
