It took a long time for Elder Mo to come to his senses. His face dropped, and he quickly communicated telepathically, "Brother Jiang He …"
Even before he finished, the Taixu Sect chieftain's face darkened and he said, "Jiang He, that moon is my mystic treasure."
His meaning was clear.
Not for sale.
Moreover, his attitude was a little colder than before.
Jiang He frowned.
He naturally knew that it was rude to buy someone else's mystic treasure, but why couldn't he buy it since it was a mystic treasure?
He promptly said, "You don't seem to understand me, chieftain. I've already said that I'll pay a high price, and if I'm not mistaken, that moon is a superior-grade sage item, is it not?"
"How about this: I'll trade you two superior-grade sage items, or even three. What do you think?"
The Taixu Sect chieftain was dumbstruck.
He wanted to rage, but Jiang He was offering too much!
How precious were sage items?
Superior-grade sage items were even rarer. Even with his cultivation and treasures, he had only managed to craft this full moon after spending sixty years. As the chieftain of the Taixu Sect, he had inherited another sage item and could even use the sect's signature treasure. Even so, though it was a premium-grade sage item, it could not be brought out of the mountain, and naturally would not help him weather his retribution.
Moreover, while his two superior-grade sage items could be used for offense and defense, they were not as powerful as defensive sage items or offensive sage items.
As those thoughts flashed through his mind, the Taixu Sect chieftain hesitated for seconds before asking tentatively, "Do you have that many superior-grade sage items, Jiang He?"
"No."
"…"
"But don't worry, chieftain. I would soon have superior-grade sage items."
Jiang He said.
It was time to get an item refinement manual. He had not used the three cultivation manuals he got after leveling up his farm, and he would create one when he got back.
On the other hand, the Taixu Sect chieftain assumed that Jiang He had gained some providence, and so promptly offered his conditions.
"An offensive-grade sage item and a defensive-grade sage item …" Jiang He nodded in agreement, indicating that there was no problem, and then asked, "By the way, since the Taixu Sect has a moon, does it have a sun? Are you selling the sun or not? I want it. "
The atmosphere fell into silence again.
After a long while, the Taixu Sect chieftain said, "Yes, the sun of the Taixu Sect is a mediocre-grade sage item. If Jiang He needs it, you could exchange it with another mediocre-grade sage item."
Jiang He's gaze twitched.
He only had one high-grade Dao artifact, the Green-Wood Sword. For the time being, he had to use it to unleash the Six Pulses Five Elements Sword Formation. However, he had a mid-grade Dao artifact.
The Demonic Bell was not very useful to him.
He promptly took out the Sky Demon Bell and said, "This bell is called the Sky Demon Bell, and is used for trapping and defense. It's a mediocre-grade sage item. I'll trade it for the sun of your Taixu Sect, and when I get my hands on a superior-grade sage item, I'll trade it for the moon."
The Taixu Sect's chieftain nodded with an odd look on his face. Beside him, Elder Mo's mind was still in a daze, buzzing incessantly.
Why …
How did things turn out like this?
Weren't you a guest at the Taixu Sect, Jiang He?
Why would you set your sights on the sun and moon of the Taixu Sect?
Most importantly, it was one thing to be targeted, but the Spiritual Master had really sold it off … How lonely and desolate would the Taixu Sect's secret realm be without its sun and moon?
The Sky Demon Bell expanded over Jiang He's palm.
With a shake of the Sky Demon Bell, Zhong Yue of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and the True Habitant of Nine Dragons of the Penglai Sect were shaken out.
Both men bellowed in rage once they were out.
"You dare to capture me, Jiang He? The Ten Thousand Swords Sect shall never coexist with you! "
"Jiang He, could you be making an enemy out of the Penglai Sect … eh?"
The True Habitant of Nine Dragons' eyes narrowed as he turned to the Taixu Sect chieftain and exclaimed in shock, "You are … the True Habitant of the Taixu Sect?"
He promptly bowed and said, "I am the True Habitant of Nine Dragons of the Penglai Sect. Greetings, Martial Uncle Taixu."
"Ancestral Master of the Taixu Sect!"
Though Zhong Yue had never met the Taixu Sect chieftain before, he was crying out right then, pointing at Jiang He and seething through clenched teeth, "Ancestral Master of the Taixu Sect, this brat has fallen to the demonic path. Please act and subjugate him at once!"
Kaboom!
Before he could finish his sentence, he saw a large palm strike towards him.
Pow!
Jiang He slapped Zhong Yue on the head, knocking him out and saying, "Apologies for that, True Habitant … by the way, does the Taixu Sect have anything like a prison? I wouldn't have any place to keep them locked up after I gave you the Sky Demon Bell, so I'll leave them here for two days. After Elder Mo sends word to the Penglai Sect and the Ten Thousand Swords Sect tomorrow, someone would naturally come to redeem them."
Though he had learned the whole story, the Taixu Sect chieftain was a little speechless right then.
Put them in prison?
If they were really imprisoned, both the Penglai Sect and the Ten Thousand Swords Sect would join forces to kill him.
Moreover, sending word …
To tell the truth, it was a job that would offend people.
Before this, he had Elder Mo visit the chieftains of both sects with his jade charm, but since Jiang He had come with his men, there was no need for that. After all, he had heard that all they did was destroy the walls of his house and a dozen houses in his village. How much could that be worth?
The Taixu Sect chieftain smiled. "Young Jiang He, why don't you give me some face and pay the compensation for the juniors of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and the True Habitant of Nine Dragons?"
"Well …"
Jiang He hesitated. "True Habitant, every debt has its debtor …"
"It's fine."
The Taixu Sect chieftain waved him off, appearing rather rich and imposing.
Jiang He was a little emotional.
As expected of the secluded immortal sects, they were definitely rich. If it were him, he would definitely be reluctant under such circumstances, and so he promptly said, "If that's the case, I won't hold back. I've done a rough calculation, and the brat from the Ten Thousand Swords Sect had destroyed seventeen houses and several meters of walls in my village. Since Brother Taixu is paying, I'll give you a twenty percent discount, and you only need to pay four premium-grade soul items."
The Taixu Sect chieftain's eyes widened.
Then, Jiang He continued, "The True Habitant of Nine Dragons had destroyed the walls of my house. Though the walls are not worth much, they were newly renovated by me, brick by brick … I had instructed my dog and cat to build them. It's all my blood and sweat, and I'll count it as five premium-grade soul treasures."
The True Habitant of Nine Dragons almost jumped to his feet and pointed at Jiang He, barking in rage, "Why don't you just rob them, Jiang He?"
Jiang He leveled an indifferent look at the True Habitant of Nine Dragons and said calmly, "If I were to rob them … I might not be strong enough at the moment, but I would have killed you with a single palm if I could flatten the Penglai Sect and bring your corpse to the Penglai Sect for punishment. Would you even have the chance to spout nonsense here?"
Exasperated, the True Habitant of Nine Dragons burst out with mystic energy and was about to fight Jiang He to the death.
Elder Mo promptly held the True Habitant of Nine Dragons back, yelling, "Don't be rash, Brother Nine Dragons …"
On the other hand, the Taixu Sect chieftain scowled and shot Elder Mo a look, who promptly dragged the True Habitant of Nine Dragons and left with the fainted Zhong Yue.
Jiang He did not stop them.
Since the Taixu Sect chieftain had agreed to compensate for the damage, would he run away?
After Elder Mo and the others left, the Taixu Sect chieftain mused to himself for a long while before speaking in slight embarrassment, "Young Jiang He … could you lower the compensation price a little?"
A few walls and a few houses for nine rank-nine soul items?
That was even faster than robbing!
Jiang He shook his head and said, "No. Friendship is friendship, and business is business. I, Jiang He, am a man of principle, and I'll take as many premium-grade soul items as I say … however, if the Taixu Sect has medicinal pellets that improve Yuan Spirit cultivation, it could substitute for the premium-grade soul items."
