Asura Mad Emperor

...

The True Master of the Heavenly Sword opened his mouth, noticing the loophole, and his face turned a deep red as he coughed and said, "Cough, cough, the old man was merely speaking offhandedly just now, trying to lighten the mood."

"Alright, I'll stop beating around the bush. Just tell me, what will it take for you to forgive Ye Wei for his offense?" the True Master of the Heavenly Sword said.

Qinchuan gave a faint smile and replied, "Previously, the Saint Heir of the Red Blood Sword Sect offended me, and eventually, he took the initiative to offer a piece of Sword Intent Amber as an apology gift, which could barely be considered somewhat sincere."

"With the status and foundation of the Heavenly Sword Sect being even greater than that of the Red Blood Sword Sect, if you truly have sincerity, surely the gift you offer won't be inferior to the Sword Intent Amber provided by the Red Blood Sword Sect, right?"

Upon hearing Qinchuan's words, the faces of the people from the Heavenly Sword Sect changed instantly.

The True Master of the Heavenly Sword also had a slightly solemn expression, glanced at the people from the Red Blood Sword Sect, and then refocused on Qinchuan, "The Red Blood Sword Sect promised you a piece of Sword Intent Amber as an apology gift, but you should know, you won't be able to get that piece of amber!"

The faces of the Red Blood Saint Heir and the old man with gray eyes turned ugly instantly; this was equivalent to undermining them in front of others.

What if Qinchuan turned hostile at this moment?

However, they couldn't afford to offend the person who was undermining them.

"Whether I can get it or not, that's a matter for later, so there's no need for you to worry about it."

"Or are you saying that you, like your foolish disciple, intend to offer something that cannot be delivered?"

Qinchuan casually said, not mincing his words one bit.

Although the other party seemed polite and apologetic.

In reality, there wasn't a trace of sincerity in their words.

The reason they maintained a surface level of politeness was because they also harbored fears within, fears regarding Ye Xuanji's strength.

If they could easily crush Ye Xuanji, they wouldn't be wasting words with him right now; they would have taken action immediately to suppress them.

In this world, so-called reasons and respect stem from strength.

"Do you really have to be so stubborn? Aren't you worried about bringing trouble upon the Congyun Sect?"

The True Master of the Heavenly Sword said slowly, his gaze gradually sharpening with a hint of a threat looming.

"Oh? Are you starting to threaten me now? How very like your disciple. Just a pity that your threats are worthless to me, holding no deterrence at all," Qinchuan replied with a light laugh after looking at him.

The True Master of the Heavenly Sword's expression grew darker, but in the end, he did not act, which indicated he was not absolutely sure he could suppress Ye Xuanji with one strike, and that he indeed valued Ye Wei, the descendant, quite highly.

He said in a deep voice, "What do you want?"

By now, there was no point in pretending to be polite.

"Hehe, nothing much. I've just heard that the Heavenly Sword Sect possesses a piece of the Primordial Divine Source. I won't ask for much – just a piece the size of a fist will do," Qinchuan said slowly.

"How do you know that my Heavenly Sword Sect has the Primordial Divine Source?!"

However, upon hearing Qinchuan's light and careless words, the True Master of the Heavenly Sword's face underwent a drastic change, and his fiery gaze suddenly fixed on Qinchuan, "Who exactly are you?!"

The Primordial Divine Source was something that even many of the elders in his own Heavenly Sword Sect did not know about, with only the most core high-ranking members being aware of it.

And now, this disciple from the Congyun Sect somehow knew that his Heavenly Sword Sect possessed the Primordial Divine Source!

"You don't need to know who I am. All you need to do now is nod," Qinchuan said, glancing at him with a steady tone.

"Impossible!"

Heavenly Sword Real Man spoke solemnly, "I do not care how you came to know of the Primordial Divine Source, but, your desire for the Primordial Divine Source, that is absolutely impossible!"

"Since you know of the Primordial Divine Source, you should also understand its importance to my Heavenly Sword Sect. Not to mention a Saint Heir, even if you wanted to exchange my life for a small piece of the Primordial Divine Source, it would still be utterly impossible!"

"Propose another condition."

Heavenly Sword Real Man flatly refused.

Qinchuan looked at Heavenly Sword Real Man in surprise and said, "I thought you would, like the Red Blood Sword Sect, agree for the time being and then cast this matter aside later on, perhaps even sending someone to deal with me."

At this, the Red Blood Saint Heir and his Protector immediately turned green.

They had not expected Qinchuan to have already seen through their intentions, understanding their schemes so clearly, which filled them with dread, and they hastily denied, "Your Excellency must not misunderstand, we have no such thoughts!"

Qinchuan smiled faintly, "What your thoughts are, there is no need for explanation, I am well aware."

"However, I still advise you to change your mind in time, faithfully honor your promises and agreements, and hand over the Sword Intent Amber. Do not really make me go to your Red Blood Sword Sect to demand it, because in that case, there might be a bloody disaster befalling your sect."

The crowd around Qinchuan became increasingly astounded by his words, failing to comprehend where he drew the confidence to make such bold declarations.

The Sword Intent Amber was something he, in fact, did not care for.

The Sword Intent Amber was sought for Zhou Xi.

Although Zhou Xi was merely his maid and servant girl, she had decent talent and potential, and had proven to be well-behaved while following him, indeed making her worthy of being nurtured.

For anyone who followed him, no matter their status, he would not treat them unfairly.

This was also why, in bygone years, he had so many followers willingly serving him, tending to his every need, with unwavering loyalty.

As for Qinchuan himself, he had no need for the Sword Intent Amber, nor any need to comprehend Sword Intent.

He himself mastered the ultimate Martial Arts truth!

Whether it was Sword Intent, Spear Intent, Fist Intent, or others, he had mastered them all with ease, reaching the Transformation Realm.

Upon hearing Qinchuan's words, the Red Blood Saint Heir and the grey-eyed old man verbally agreed again and again.

However, Qinchuan knew very well that the readier the agreement at this moment, the less credible it was. Explore stories at My Virtual Library Empire

But at this point, he could not be bothered to say more; when the time came, he would simply make a trip to the Red Blood Sword Sect.

Heavenly Sword Real Man cast a glance at the Red Blood Saint Heir and his partner before refocusing on Qinchuan, frowning; he found he was increasingly unable to see through this young man.

Qinchuan turned and looked at him, saying, "I know you are reluctant to part with the Primordial Divine Source, and I am well aware this boy is not worth a piece of the Primordial Divine Source. So, I will take a step back—how about ten drops of Innate Spirit Liquid?"

"Ten drops of Innate Spirit Liquid?! Your appetite is truly not small!"

Heavenly Sword Real Man's eyelid twitched upon hearing this, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

While the Innate Spirit Liquid was not as crucial to Heavenly Sword Gate as the Primordial Divine Source, it was still a rare treasure, each drop being worth a city's ransom.

And Qinchuan was asking for ten drops!

It was outright extortion.

"How is it? I have already compromised. If you still refuse, then you truly lack sincerity," Qinchuan confidently stated.

Heavenly Sword Real Man's mouth twitched as he fell into contemplation.

Innate Spirit Liquid was an extremely special fluid, only condensing a few drops under very harsh conditions.

The Innate Spirit Liquid had many uses, from alchemy to crafting.

Furthermore, Innate Spirit Liquid could purify one's Essence Qi and spirit.

If someone suffered from inner demons due to cultivation deviation, this Innate Spirit Liquid could be refined into a Mind-Calming Pill to suppress those demons, making it extremely precious.

However, the Mind-Calming Pill was incredibly difficult to refine, and few could manage to do so, yet even so, the value of Innate Spirit Liquid remained extraordinary.
