Hearing that Duan Gantai came from Butterfly Mountain, Qiao Jierui's eyes immediately flashed with surprise. He even forcibly concealed his anger.
The man next to Yi Cang was slender and wore a Confucian scarf on his head. He looked extremely handsome. He was Spirit Devil Island's First Island Master, Chu Angxiong.
When Chu Angxiong came out, he saw Shuqiu Hongwen severely injured and his son, Chu Xinshan, beaten into a pig's head. It immediately made him angry.
But after figuring out some of the situation, he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart. Instead, he smiled and cupped his fists towards Duan Gantai. "Spirit Devil Island's Chu Angxiong greets friend. I, Spirit Devil Island's Chu Xinshan, apologise to friend for the inconvenience I caused you at the auction."
Chu Angxiong and Yi Cang came together because Yi Cang wanted to explain the auction venue to him. Although he was polite on the surface, he was still very unhappy about the Ash Pagoda Auction. How could a simple explanation make up for his son's humiliation at the auction venue?
Now that he came out and saw Qiao Jierui and Yi Jiufeng's attitude towards Ning Cheng, as well as Yi Cang saying that Duan Gantai came from Butterfly Mountain, how could he not understand?
No wonder Ash Pagoda Chamber of Commerce didn't even buy into his account. These two people seemed to have some big backgrounds.
In fact, Chu Angxiong was wrong. Yi Cang didn't know about Ning Cheng and Duan Gantai's identities before. It was only after the incident at the auction that Yi Cang found out about them.
"Butterfly Mountain's people can't control this place and won't come forward for me. You don't have to worry about it." Duan Gantai finished and turned to Ning Cheng. "Brother Ning, this little brother will wait for you at the Desert Sand Rest Stop."
After saying this, Duan Gantai immediately left, disappearing in a moment.
"Sect Master Ning, it was my Spirit Devil Island's fault. As the First Island Master of Spirit Devil Island, I can't absolve myself from the blame. "Chu Angxiong felt extremely aggrieved. When did Spirit Devil Island have to apologise everywhere? But he still had to apologise. Even if he apologised, a puny Life and Death cultivator wouldn't care about him.
Even Spirit Heaven Grand Starry Sky's Yi Jiufeng had to address Ning Cheng as' Brother Ning '. No matter how strong his Spirit Devil Island was, it couldn't compare to these two people.
How could Ning Cheng not see Chu Angxiong's murderous intent? He spoke up without any care, "There's no need for an apology. If the First Island Master feels that this matter is over, then let's just forget about it. If First Island Master feels that this matter isn't over yet, I live in Mysterious Yellow Celestial River's Jiangzhou Star. "
After saying that, Ning Cheng greeted Yi Jiufeng and hurriedly went to find Duan Gantai. He had yet to achieve his main purpose of coming here. Duan Gantai had already taken away the Starry Sky Radish Grass, so how could he let it go? He didn't want to have anything to do with Godfiend Island. If the people from Spirit Devil Island dared to go to Jiangzhou Star, then he wouldn't mind taking a trip to Spirit Devil Island.
Qiao Jierui looked at Ning Cheng's departing back with an ugly expression. Even if he wanted to make a move against Ning Cheng, he could not do it here. However, since Ning Cheng dared to leave Stately River Star alone and come to the Devil Domain, it meant that he was tired of living, unless he stayed with Yi Jiufeng.
…
The Desert Sand Rest Stop was of a much higher grade compared to the small rest stop Ning Cheng lived in. When Ning Cheng arrived, Duan Gantai had already been waiting for him.
"I knew that Brother Ning would come in time. If I hadn't waited for Brother Ning, I would have already left the Devil Domain." Duan Gantai spoke with a smile.
Ning Cheng casually activated the room's restrictions, sat down, and said, "Brother Duan, if you agree, I will immediately start refining the pill. If you don't agree, then I will leave immediately. Let's not talk nonsense."
Duan Gantai showed a smile and spoke up casually, "I naturally agree to let Brother Ning refine the pill, but how confident is Brother Ning? How many medicinal pills can you refine? How do you plan to distribute them? "
Ning Cheng didn't answer Duan Gantai's question and spoke up, "There are seven main starry sky spirit grasses for refining the Eternal Emperor Continuance Pill and no less than a hundred auxiliary starry sky spirit grasses. Before talking about the distribution of medicinal pills, I would like to ask Brother Duan, how many auxiliary starry sky spirit grasses do you have? If not, then Brother Duan should just wait for the medicinal pills. "
He could already tell from Duan Gantai's tone that Duan Gantai had no intention of letting him refine the pill.
"No matter how many starry sky spirit grasses are needed for the Eternal Emperor Continuance Pill, I'm sure that I can find these starry sky spirit grasses. As for my Starry Sky Radish Grass, it's not that easy to find. If Brother Ning fails in refining, you wouldn't lose much, but I would lose a lot. "Duan Gantai knew that if Ning Cheng had the Starry Sky Radish Grass, he wouldn't have come to him for cooperation.
Moreover, from the beginning to the end, he had no intention of working with Ning Cheng. Looking for Ning Cheng to refine pills for him would only result in his brain going haywire. If Ning Cheng insisted on helping him refine pills, it would only lead to humiliation. He waited for Ning Cheng to come because of the Temple of Time, not for medicinal pills.
Ning Cheng hesitated for a while before speaking, "Brother Duan, it's not the first time we've worked together. I believe in Brother Duan, but since Brother Duan doesn't believe me, then let's make another deal. "
Duan Gantai waved his hand, "Brother Ning, let's not talk about the deal. I know that you have a high level of alchemy, and I also know that you offered me the Accordance Heavenly Pill to cooperate with me. But to Brother Ning's disappointment, I still have to think about the matter of alchemy. I came to Brother Ning to discuss how to get to the Temple of Time. "
Ning Cheng's expressions turned ugly, and he remained silent for a minute or two before speaking up, "If Brother Duan is afraid that I would waste the Starry Sky Radish Grass, I can put some Star Veins on Brother Duan."
Hearing Ning Cheng say that he would put some Star Veins on him, Duan Gantai's heart moved, but he immediately spoke up, "Forget about the Star Veins. With my friendship with Brother Ning, I just need to put some Star Veins on you. Star Veins are resources needed for cultivation, so I can't let Brother Ning put them on me. Otherwise ….. "
Duan Gantai hesitated for a while before speaking, "Brother Ning can put the Perpetual Moon Time Key in your hand on me, and I will agree to let Brother Ning refine pills."
Ning Cheng sneered in his heart. When he put up the second Perpetual Moon Time Key for auction, he had already prepared to propose this matter to Duan Gantai. The only accident was that someone else bought the second Perpetual Moon Time Key. But it made Ning Cheng's plan easier to implement. Otherwise, with Duan Gantai's cunning personality, if he agreed to put the three Perpetual Moon Time Keys on Duan Gantai, Duan Gantai would have definitely grown suspicious.
Now it seemed that his arrangements had not been in vain. This fellow finally proposed it.
In fact, when Duan Gantai made this request, he didn't expect Ning Cheng to agree. He believed that with Ning Cheng's shrewdness, how could he agree to such a thing? It's just that he and Ning Cheng had cooperated once before, which was why he used such an excuse to evade it.
But what he didn't expect was that after he made this request, Ning Cheng turned silent. Was there really a chance? Ning Cheng wouldn't be such an idiot, right?
It was hard to say. After all, not everyone could refuse an Eternal Emperor Continuance Pill. Suppressing the surprise in his heart, Duan Gantai spoke up casually, "Whether the Perpetual Moon Time Key is on me or not, it doesn't make much sense. After all, someone bought the second Perpetual Moon Time Key, and I don't even know who bought it. I'm afraid that I will have to trouble Ash Pagoda Chamber of Commerce's Association Master Yi Cang for this matter. "
Seemingly moved by Duan Gantai's words, Ning Cheng slapped the table and said, "Brother Duan, I've always believed in you. It's just that the Perpetual Moon Time Key is of great importance. I can put it on Brother Duan, but Brother Duan must agree to two conditions. "
Duan Gantai pretended to frown and asked, "What conditions?"
"First, Brother Duan must give me the Transfer Jade Talisman to enter the Temple of Time. Brother Duan doesn't need to explain anything. I know that even if I put the Perpetual Moon Time Key on Brother Duan, Brother Duan would only have two. But the Temple of Time is my biggest expectation. Putting both the Perpetual Moon Time Key and the Transfer Jade Talisman on Brother Duan, I don't dare to take the risk. "
When Ning Cheng said the first condition, Duan Gantai's heart almost jumped out of his chest in excitement. Ning Cheng, Ning Cheng, today, I will let you drink my foot-washing water for the second time. You shouldn't know that the second key is now on me, right? If you knew, I'm afraid you wouldn't have done it. As for the jade talisman to enter the Time Wilderness, who told you that I only have one? Did I tell you that? Did you believe my words?
How could he, Duan Gantai, let the second Perpetual Moon Time Key fall into the hands of someone he didn't know? When Ning Cheng entered the Consignment Channel, he immediately found Booth 7. He only spoke two sentences. First, I will use 15 Star Veins in exchange for your Perpetual Moon Time Key. Second, I come from Butterfly Mountain.
In just two sentences, he easily obtained the second Perpetual Moon Time Key.
On the surface, Duan Gantai nodded after listening to Ning Cheng's words, "Brother Ning's request is very legitimate. Even I would have made such a request."
Ning Cheng ignored Duan Gantai and continued, "Second, Brother Duan must put 50 Star Veins on me."
"Absolutely impossible." Duan Gantai waved his hand and stood up. Even if he had three Perpetual Moon Time Keys, he would never put 50 Star Veins on Ning Cheng. How many Star Veins did he have in total? If he gave Ning Cheng 50 more, how could he cultivate after advancing to the Eternal Realm?
He hadn't even seen what was inside the Temple of Time. Therefore, Duan Gantai would never take such a risk.
Seeing that Ning Cheng seemed to want to leave, Duan Gantai took the initiative to speak up, "Brother Ning, I invited Brother Ning here, apart from the Temple of Time, because I couldn't find a Pill Emperor who could refine Starry Sky Grade 9 Medicinal Pills. However, Brother Ning's conditions are a bit too harsh. What if Brother Ning takes away my Star Veins and doesn't return them to me? Of course, I don't doubt Brother Ning's character, but I'm afraid that something might happen to you. "
Ning Cheng spoke up with a calm voice, "Actually, I also want to add one more condition. Even if Brother Duan agrees, I would like to place some restrictions in this room and not leave halfway."
Duan Gantai's expressions changed a few times before he gritted his teeth and said, "I'll bet ten Starry Sky Essence Qi Veins and give the Transfer Jade Talisman to Brother Ning. Brother Ning, please help me refine this furnace of medicinal pills."
Ning Cheng secretly laughed in his heart. This fellow had just said that he would consider whether or not to refine pills by himself. Now, he directly stated the conditions for refining pills.
"Ten is too few. I won't agree. Forty Star Veins."
"No, fifteen Star Veins at most."
"Thirty-five."
"Twenty, that's my bottom line."
"Thirty. If you agree, I'll start. If you don't agree, I'll leave. There's no room for bargaining."
"Twenty-five. If you don't agree, then forget it."
Ning Cheng didn't bid again. He stood up and walked towards the door. He didn't believe that Duan Gantai would give up on the Temple of Time for five Star Veins.
Just when Ning Cheng was about to step out of the room, he heard Duan Gantai's grinding voice. "Thirty is thirty."
Ning Cheng felt completely relieved. He truly feared that Duan Gantai wouldn't stop him. If Duan Gantai didn't stop him and he returned, Duan Gantai would definitely suspect him.
