It could be said that Qiu Ze's offer was too generous. He was practically praising Jiang Tian to the heavens!
Crystals and materials, these were secondary.
Most importantly, they were brothers. That meant that Jiang Tian was like the second head of the family. In the entire 18 Disk Islands, he was second only to one person!
The most ruthless point was that Qiu Ze wanted to share cultivation techniques with Jiang Tian and cultivate together!
This was equivalent to asking Jiang Tian to share the Qiu Family's cultivation technique, which was equivalent to taking Jiang Tian as a disciple!
However, he was also giving Jiang Tian face. He did not use the name of master and disciple to restrict Jiang Tian, but instead praised Jiang Tian to the heavens!
Qiu Ze was a veteran Golden Core cultivator, the Patriarch of the Qiu Family, the Island Master, and a Grand Perfected Lord!
Now that Jiang Tian had such a powerful backer, the benefits he could obtain were simply incalculable.
Moreover, Qiu Ze was also very smart!
In everyone's opinion, Jiang Tian's cultivation should not be high. In fact, he was only at Foundation Establishment. What Qiu Ze was offering was exactly what Jiang Tian lacked the most — to help him improve his cultivation!
"Old man, after reporting to the Tower Master, we can also offer the same conditions. Young Master Jiang, please give me some time …"
Old Man Hu's face was covered in cold sweat. Although he was afraid of Qiu Ze's power, he still sent a telepathic message unwillingly.
"Hu Dedi, are you trying to steal him from me?"
However, his divine sense could not escape Qiu Ze's detection. He immediately looked over coldly, and with a roar, his Perfected Lord aura erupted.
There was no way Old Man Hu could withstand the aura of a Golden Core Perfected Lord.
As if Mount Tai was pressing down on him, he bent his knees and knelt on the ground. His entire body trembled as he kowtowed repeatedly.
"City Lord, please calm down. I dare not!"
"Everyone, I, Qiu Ze, want this Grandmaster Jiang today! From now on, he can only forge artifacts for the Qiu Family. No one else is allowed to touch him. Do you have any objections? "
Qiu Ze snorted coldly. His domineering gaze swept over as he sent a telepathic message.
The Patriarchs, Sect Masters, and the leaders of the trading companies lowered their heads. Their eyes were filled with dread as they communicated with each other through their Divine Consciousness, "We don't dare to compete!"
Everyone knew that Jiang Tian was a treasure. They all wanted to rope him in, but they did not dare to offend Qiu Ze!
"Sigh, Qiu Ze wants to imprison Great Craftsman Jiang!"
"All the benefits I mentioned before, such as calling each other brothers, were all for outsiders to hear!"
"At that time, the Qiu Family will definitely squeeze this Grandmaster Craftsman Jiang dry!"
"In fact, he even wants to share his methods of refining artifacts with us. After all, he had just said that he wanted to communicate and learn from each other! He casually imparted a third-rate cultivation technique to you and then asked you about the method of refining weapons. Do you dare to refuse? A gentleman is innocent, but treasuring a jade ring gets him into trouble! "
"Oh no! Oh no! It seems that in the world of cultivation, the strong are still respected. If you only have the means to refine weapons and your cultivation is low, you will still be crushed! "
At that moment, everyone suddenly came to a realization and could not help but feel some sympathy for Jiang Tian!
Qiu Ze did not think that Jiang Tian would dare to refuse. He casually cupped his fists at Jiang Tian and said unquestionably, "Great Craftsman Jiang, please!"
"Perfected Lord Qiu, I'm an itinerant cultivator. I'm free and undisciplined like a wild crane. I can't stand being restrained. Forgive me for not being able to comply! "
Jiang Tian was neither servile nor overbearing. He was nonchalant.
"What?!"
Everyone exclaimed. Everyone was shocked and dumbfounded. They looked at Jiang Tian as if they were looking at a dead man.
He was only at the early-stage of Foundation Establishment. In front of a Golden Core Perfected Lord, he was like an ant that could not withstand a single blow.
"What?"
Qiu Ze was also stunned and surprised.
"How dare you reject the Qiu Family!"
Suddenly, an early-stage Golden Core female cultivator stepped forward from behind Qiu Ze. She had beautiful eyebrows and an ethereal aura. She was graceful and elegant.
She was tall and slender, with curves in the front and back. She carried a long sword on her back and her beautiful eyes were full of power. She was full of valiance and murderous intent.
"Qiu Yinong! The eldest daughter of the Qiu Family! Legend has it that she's not inferior to men. She successfully formed a Golden Core at the age of thirty. Now, she's only fifty and she's already at the mid-stage Golden Core! Now, she's even under the tutelage of the Ocean Cover Swordsman, Sun Bojun. In the future, she'll definitely control the eighteen Pan Islands! "
"She's as beautiful as a flower and is known as one of the top ten beauties of Dragon Gate. She's even more famous than Xie Tingran!"
"What a pity. She's ruthless and ruthless. She's one of the top three assassins under Sun Bojun. She's even killed some of the more experienced early-stage Golden Core cultivators! She's known as the Pan Island Witch! "
Many people clicked their tongues and communicated with the people around them using their Divine Consciousness.
However, they all used a secret technique and did not dare to say it out loud. If the Qiu Family heard it, they might be killed.
"Why not?"
Jiang Tian said casually and lazily.
"I'm just an itinerant cultivator. I haven't received any benefits from your family and I'm not your slave. Do I need to listen to your orders? What kind of logic is that? "
"You're courting death!"
Qiu Yinong's face turned cold. Her clear and beautiful eyes were filled with murderous intent that was not in harmony with her beauty!
A flying sword moved by itself from the scabbard on her back and jumped up. Its cold light illuminated the void and sent chills down people's spines. It was about to fly towards Jiang Tian.
"This brat doesn't know his place. He's dead meat!"
"Logic? In the world of cultivation, the strong are respected and the weak are ants. It's fair to bully the weak! His cultivation is not as good as hers and he still dares to disobey her orders. He can only be beheaded! "
"What a pity. This Young Master Jiang has reached the peak of refining, but he obviously hasn't experienced the world of cultivation. He doesn't know the cruelty of the world of cultivation!"
Everyone had different expressions. Some were mocking and disdainful, some were gloating, some were sighing regretfully, and some were watching the fire burn across the river with cold eyes.
But very few people spoke up for Jiang Tian.
Although there was order in the world of cultivation, order was only used to protect the strong. It was too common for the weak to be killed, enslaved, and trampled on.
"Good, good, good! This brat has been killed by the Qiu family. Our Treasure Seafood Tower has one less strong competitor! "
Ouyang Yuan and Elder Hu looked at each other, revealing a gloating smile and snickering.
"Island Master Qiu, Miss Qiu, please spare him!"
At this moment, Lin Qin flew over and stopped in front of Jiang Tian. Sweating profusely, he bowed and cupped his fists, saying sincerely,
"Grandmaster Jiang's attainments in refining are extremely profound, and his methods are unfathomable. He alone can push the refining level of our entire world to an unprecedented height. It would be a pity to kill him. Whoever kills him will be a sinner of our world!"
"What's there to pity about killing him? If he doesn't want to refine for the Qiu family, then he can't refine for others! We have to kill him! "
Qiu Yinong's eyes were cold.
"Ancestral Master Qiu, Miss Qiu, please give me some time. I'm willing to persuade him to refine for the Qiu family. "
Lin Qin truly admired Jiang Tian too much. He was shocked and didn't want Jiang Tian to die like this, dying an unnatural death.
Qiu Ze, who had been as calm as water, finally showed a smile.
"Lin Qin, I believe you. I'll give you three days. With Master Craftsman Jiang's wisdom, he will make a wise decision! "
Then, he glared at Qiu Yinong and scolded,
"Yinong, you can't be too arbitrary and bully the weak! You're making a fool of yourself! Although the Qiu family is powerful, do we dare to call ourselves the number one family of the Dragon Gate? If Sun Bojun and the Giant Shark King came to bully you, how would you feel? "
"Ancestral Master, I was wrong!"
Qiu Yinong quickly lowered her head and admitted her mistake.
But in fact, she didn't admit her mistake at all. Her words were frivolous, and she rolled her eyes at Jiang Tian with disdain.
"Alright! Master Craftsman Jiang, we'll take our leave first. We'll meet again! "
Qiu Ze's expression was much colder. He cupped his hands and left with his family and subordinates.
After the Qiu family left, many cultivators left Jiang Tian. Jiang Tian's stall became deserted.
Ouyang Yuan and Elder Hu also shook their heads and flew into the Seafood Tower. In their minds, Jiang Tian was already a dead man.
Even if he agreed to Qiu Ze's request, he would only be a private blacksmith of the Qiu family and wouldn't compete with them.
Lin Qin sighed. He walked up to Jiang Tian and said, "
"Brother Jiang, this is reality. Your cultivation is too low and your connections are too shallow. You can only be trampled on!"
"What do you think I should do?"
Jiang Tian didn't panic at all and asked with a smile.
"Go far away. Get to know other experts and get protection. You won't be able to survive in the Eighteen Disk Islands! "
Lin Qin smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Jiang Tian smiled but didn't say anything.
He could kill Qiu Ze with one slash.
He didn't even need to do anything. The True Dragon Bai Ze was enough to kill him.
However, he came here to rescue Ao Jiao and kill top traitors like Sun Bojun, or the Jade Lake cultivators.
To put it bluntly, Jiang Tian's target wasn't him at all. In other words, he wasn't even qualified for Jiang Tian to kill him!
