Chapter 3826: The Tai Yi Sects Spy
Initially, Xue Jin was going to bet with Duan Ling Tian. He was rather confident that he could at least withstand a move from Duan Ling Tian. However, when he saw Duan Ling Tian bring out so many Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pill earlier, he began to waver. Duan Ling Tian did seem like someone who could be judged using common sense. Duan Ling Tian was too difficult to read, and when he thought he had seen through Duan Ling Tian, it felt like it was something Duan Ling Tian had deliberately shown him. Hence, he dismissed the idea of betting with Duan Ling Tian.
After all, Xue Jin could not earn contribution points as easily as Duan Ling Tian did. He had painstakingly accumulated all of his contribution points. Although he had been in the Flying Dragon Sect for such a long time, he had only been able to accumulate fewer than 20,000 contribution points. As soon as Duan Ling Tian raised the bet, he thought this was his opportunity to retreat.
When Xue Jin sensed the burning gazes on his back, after he spoke to Huang Ting, he said to Duan Ling Tian without looking back, Duan Ling Tian, I dont have so many contribution points now. When I have them, Ill definitely accept your bet.
Upon hearing this, Duan Ling Tian looked at Xue Jins back and said, Then, lets bet 30,000 merit points. If that doesnt work for you either, lets bet with 20,000 or 10,000 contribution points. Well go with whichever you want.
However, even after Duan Ling Tian lowered the bet to 10,000 contribution points, Xue Jins steps did not slow down at all. It was as though he did not hear Duan Ling Tians words.
Huang Ting, who was standing next to Duan Ling Tian, sneered. Duan Ling Tian, hes chickened out. Let alone 10,000 contribution points, I dont think hell dare to bet even if its just 1,000 contribution points.
In the distance, Xue Jins paused briefly before he walked out and disappeared from sight.
Since he doesnt want to bet with me, what about you? Duan Ling Tian asked as he glanced at Huang Ting. It was as though he could not wait to turn the world upside down.
Me? Huang Ting was stunned. Then, his eyes flashed for a moment before he finally shook his head and said, My parents and master have warned me since I was young that gambling is bad.
Duan Ling Tian, Ill be happy to spar with you, but if it involves betting, then Im afraid Ill have to decline. I cant go against my parents and my masters teachings, Huang Ting said before he left as well. He did not think he would be able to beat Duan Ling Tian in the bet. As much as he found it difficult to believe that Duan Ling Tian would be able to defeat him with a move, after seeing Xue Jins retreat, he began to doubt himself.
Huang Ting and Xue Jin had been rivals for many years. He was naturally very familiar with Xue Jin. Xue Jin would not make a move unless he was truly confident. Since Xue Jin walked away from so many contribution points without hesitation, it was clear that Xue Jin was not confident about his victory. Xue Jin, who was stronger than him, had retreated, he was not foolish as to charge in.
Just as Huang Ting was about to leave, an inner disciple said asked, Didnt Huang Ting make a bet with another disciple recently?
Yes. It was two months ago. I was there. He bet 500 contribution points and won, someone quickly replied.
Soon after, the others began to bring up instances of Huang Ting betting with other disciples.
With that, Huang Tiang hurried out of the Internal Affairs like the wind as though he had something urgent to attend to.
Why are the Flying Dragon Sects disciples so stingy? Isnt it just 10,000 contribution points? Is that a lot? I didnt have a single contribution point until today, but I managed to earn so much. Duan Ling Tian was rendered speechless by Xue Jin and Huang Tings actions.
After a moment, Duan Ling Tian looked at the people in the surroundings as he said, Fellow disciples, if you know anyone whos in need of Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills, please direct them to me. I still have six pills left. The Imperial War is drawing closer. If ones Heavenly Veins are damaged, itll inevitably affect ones strength. This can be fatal during the war. Even if your Heavenly Veins arent damaged, who knows what will happen during the war? Its best to have some Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills with you.
Upon hearing Duan Ling Tians words, many people looked as though they were considering buying the Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills.
Duan Ling Tian nodded in satisfaction when he saw the crowds reactions. This was the effect he desired.
Earlier, Duan Ling Tian had overheard some people saying that Zhu Fei Yu needed the Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pill so urgently because his son had severely damaged his Heavenly Veins. Without the pills, it would have taken about 800 years to heal his Heavenly Veins. However, with the Imperial War drawing close, Zhu Fei Yus son naturally did not have the time to wait for his injuries to heal. It would be fatal if his son had to join the war with his injuries. After all, those at and above the stage of a King of Gods had to participate in the war. Those who tried to escape the war would be heavily punished. For all these reasons, Zhu Fei Yu had posted the mission, hoping to obtain the Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pill. In order to ensure he would obtain it as soon as possible, he even offered a generous reward.
Before Zhu Fei Yu posted the mission, Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills cost about 2,000 to 3,000 contribution points each. Usually, these pills were sourced from outside the Flying Dragon Sect. Only top emperor-rank forces in the Eastern Ridge Mansion had divine alchemists capable of refining Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills.
In the past, the Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pill was not in very high demand. However, since the declaration of the Imperial War, demand for the pills, in both the Flying Dragon Sect and the Tai Yi Sect, would definitely rise.
At this moment, a Voice Transmission rang in Duan Ling Tians ears. The voice was hoarse.
Duan Ling Tian, the Tai Yi Sect wants six Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills. Were willing to exchange divine artifacts for it. Rest assured, each of the artifacts wont be less than 10,000 contribution points.
Duan Ling Tian looked around him immediately. Since he did not know the owner of the voice, he naturally could not reply.
No need to look for me. I cant reveal myself to you. If youre willing, someone from the Tai Yi Sect will make the trade with you at noon after ten days.
Duan Ling Tian only smiled faintly. What a joke! If the Flying Dragon Sect discovers that I supplied the Tai Yi Sect with Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills, they definitely wont let me off! Its assisting the enemy, a huge offense. Moreover, who knows if this is just a scheme to lure me into a trap?
Duan Ling Tian naturally considered that the person might not even be from the Tai Yi Sect. It could be someone from Kuang Tian Zhengs side trying to lure him out of the sect to make the trade so they could kill him. Whatever the other partys motive was, he had no intention of making the trade.
Moreover, Duan Ling Tian believed he would not lack customers. It was also likely that he could sell the Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pill at an even higher price in the future.
Considering there was a chance the voice truly belonged to a spy from the Tai Yi Sect, Duan Ling Tian informed Xue Hai Chuan about this matter just in case.
Xue Hai Chuans reply was swift. He did not seem surprised at all as he said, This is normal. Our Flying Dragon Sect has quite a few spies in the Tai Yi Sect as well. The spies on both sides are very careful so they wont easily reveal their identities.
After that, Xue Hai Chun, who shared the same thought as Duan Ling Tian, also warned Duan Ling Tian of the possibility that it was a scheme to lure Duan Ling Tian out of the Flying Dragon Sect.
Brother Hai Chuan, dont worry. I naturally wont leave the sects estate so easily, Duan Ling Tian replied.
After ending his communication with Xue Hai Chuan, an idea appeared in Duan Ling Tians mind. Perhaps, I should auction my remaining Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills. Ill be able to earn more contribution points that way!
However, Duan Ling Tian quickly dismissed this idea. He thought he would be no different from an unscrupulous businessman if he did such a thing. He even felt slightly repulsed by himself for having such thoughts. After all, it did not seem right for him to profit from a war.
Its fine. If I need more contribution points, Ill just refine more pills...
After that, Duan Ling Tian continued to make his way toward the counter to exchange contribution points. He was making his way there earlier before he was interrupted by Xue Jin and Huang Ting.
Duan Ling Tians eyes brightened as he thought to himself, They should have the things I need here. Most importantly, they should have the things that the Linghu clan doesnt have! After all, the Flying Dragon Sect is an emperor-rank force.
At the same time, a small commotion broke out after word of what happened in the Internal Affairs Pavilion spread out. To be precise, a small commotion broke out among those with damaged Heavenly Veins.
He has the Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills?
I didnt think Id be able to heal my damaged Heavenly Veins before the start of the war. Who knew Id be able to buy Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills?
10,000 contribution points for one Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pill? Damn it! I dont have so many contribution points now. I wonder if hell accept divine rocks or divine crystals?
Quite a few people rushed out of their cultivation ground toward the Internal Affairs Pavilion.
In a bedroom that clearly belonged to a female.
Little Tian has so many Vein Recovery Limit Divine Pills? Dongfang Yan Nian was surprised. Then, he looked at the young woman sitting cross-legged on the bed and said, Lier, werent you worried about being a burden to me due to your damaged Heavenly veins? This wont be an issue after we heal your veins!
