Vital Peace Pill … Mo Tiange didn't know what it was, but Yang Chengji's eyes lit up the moment he heard what Ling Yunhe said. Even Tian Zhiqian and Ling Yunfei looked towards Ling Yunhe.
Ling Yunhe smiled and said nothing.
Mo Tiange hesitated for a moment then asked, "Fellow Daoist Ling, what's an Intrinsic Peace Pill?"
Ling Yunhe paused for a moment and said with a smile, "Apologies, I forgot that Fellow Daoist Qin isn't from Cloud Midst. I believe you also haven't heard of my Jiuyan Sect's Essence Peace Pill.
This pill is one of the high-grade pills of my Jiuyan Sect. It can be used to break through bottlenecks … Of course, it's not guaranteed to be effective. "
"I see."
Ling Yunhe didn't say much, but based on the expressions of Yang Chengji and the others, it wasn't difficult for Mo Tiange to guess that this Essential Peace Pill must be a very rare and precious medicinal pill, which was why it could make disciples from famous cultivation groups like Yang Chengji so envious.
Ling Yunfei looked at her and explained with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Qin, our Jiuyan Sect's Vital Peace Pill is a famous elixir in Yun Zhong. Even us inner sect disciples find it hard to obtain it, much less outsiders!"
He looked at Ling Yunhe with a face full of envy. "If it wasn't for the fact that my second brother is deeply favored by the Patriarch, I'm afraid he would be like me, waiting for a few years to get a few …"
"Really?"
Ling Yunfei was already a Core Formation cultivator, so he could be considered an elder in the Jiuyan Sect. However, he could only wait for a few pills. It seemed like these pills were indeed very precious. Ling Yunhe had really gone all out this time.
"A pill that can help one break through bottlenecks?" Tian Can asked. He looked at Ling Yunhe and asked, "Fellow Daoist Ling, is this true?"
"That's right." Ling Yunhe raised his eyebrows. "Daoist Tiancan has never heard of the Vital Peace Pill?"
Tian Can said indifferently, "I've always lived in seclusion in a desolate place and rarely go out. I'm not clear about the affairs of Eastern Tang."
"I see."
Ling Yunhe pointed to an empty space at the side and said, "Everyone, go and take a rest. There's no rush to make a decision."
Seeing that Ling Yunhe had finished setting up the defensive array formation, the others hesitated for a moment before going back to rest.
Mo Tiange noticed that the hostile atmosphere had become a lot more peaceful, so she cast a meaningful glance at Ling Yunhe.
This person could not be underestimated.
If one were to say that he was magnanimous, he would also play tricks. If one were to say that he was sinister, he would offer very generous terms.
Just as Ling Yunhe had said, if he had explained everything clearly beforehand, there was an 80% chance that the group would have dispersed before they could even enter Carefree Valley. After all, to these people, no one was willing to put their lives in the hands of others, no matter how generous the conditions were.
But now, they had all entered the Carefree Valley and were at the entrance of the inner valley. It would not be easy for them to leave even if they wanted to. Thus, the conditions that they could accept were slightly more relaxed.
And Ling Yunhe agreed to give out the Origin Peace Pill at this time.
After discovering that he had been hiding something, the others were originally very dissatisfied and might very well leave in a huff. However, after hearing his promise, they calmed down. Even if someone were to leave in the end, they probably wouldn't bear any grudges against him.
Mo Tiange sighed inwardly.
A magnanimous person was worth befriending, but it would be difficult for him to gain a foothold in the Immortal Cultivation World. A clever person could mingle with wind and water, but people would respect him from afar. And this Ling Yunhe … seemed to be in between the two, making people unable to be angry or happy.
However, it was undeniable that if a person like him could really become the head of Jiuyan Sect, he would probably have a very good life.
"Fellow Daoist Qin." A person was sitting cross-legged in the corner, thinking about her own matters, when she suddenly heard an ear-piercing voice.
Mo Tiange turned her head and found that it was Tiancan.
Aside from the fight they had before, she had no contact with Tiancan during this trip. She didn't know why Tiancan was talking to her now.
"Fellow Daoist Tiancan, what's the matter?"
Tiancan looked around and sat down not far from her. With a wave of his hand, he laid a sound-proof barrier and said faintly, "What do you think about this?"
Mo Tiange was stunned. "Fellow Daoist Tiancan, are you asking me what I plan to do?"
"Yes."
Tiancan nodded and looked at her with his only exposed eyes. "Ling Yunhe is indeed cunning, but he's also sincere.
Since he has agreed to those conditions, we should be safe before he obtains the Fretless Fruit.
However, it's hard to say whether he'll turn against us or not. "
"…"
Mo Tiange didn't speak for a long time. Tiancan couldn't help but ask, "Fellow Daoist Qin, what do you think?"
Mo Tiange thought, They don't seem to be familiar with each other, right?
These words seem to be too sincere.
But he seems to be seriously discussing with me, so it seems a bit unreasonable to say that.
She thought for a while and said, "What about Fellow Daoist Tiancan?
What's your decision? "
Tiancan said, "I just can't decide.
To tell you the truth, the thing Ling Yunhe promised me is very important to me. If I have it, my future cultivation path will be much smoother.
It could be said that taking a certain amount of risk for this item was worth it.
But … "He paused and glanced at the others.
Ling Yunhe was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the formation, adjusting his breath with his eyes closed. His spiritual beast, the vulture, was perched on his shoulder, staring ahead fiercely and glancing at the others from time to time.
Ling Yunfei and Tian Zhiqian seemed to be chatting. Tiancan laid a sound-proof barrier around them, so they couldn't hear each other.
As for Yang Chengji, he was leaning against the mountain wall with his arms crossed. He seemed to be thinking about something.
"There must be something wrong," Tiancan said.
"Fellow Daoist Qin, please take a look. The three of us invited by Ling Yunhe aren't mediocre. On the contrary, Tian Zhiqian and Ling Yunfei are far weaker than us.
Tian Zhiqian is a formation master, but what about Ling Yunfei?
Could it be that Ling Yunhe, as a candidate for the head of Jiuyan Sect, has a good relationship with many people and can't find a stronger companion?
Even if the Ling Clan doesn't have one, Jiuyan Sect must have one, right? "
Mo Tiange said, "He said this matter involves the interests of various cultivation groups in the sect and disputes between clans, so it's not good to invite martial brothers who have a good relationship with us …"
"Hmph!" Tiancan showed a hint of mockery in his eyes. "Is that true?
Yun Zhong isn't … "He paused halfway through his sentence before continuing," The number one sect in Yun Zhong lives up to its name. They have more than ten Nascent Soul cultivators and more than a hundred Core Formation cultivators. How could they not be able to find a decent helper?
From what Ling Yunfei said, Ling Yunhe is very favored by the Nascent Soul ancestor of the Ling Clan. For the sake of his beloved grandson and the benefit of the alliance, even if he doesn't care, other people won't care, right? "
"…" Mo Tiange lowered her gaze and kept smiling. Her expression didn't change at all.
Tiancan blinked and continued to ask, "Fellow Daoist Qin, can you at least tell me something?"
Mo Tiange looked up and asked, "What is it?"
"What do you think about this matter?"
Mo Tiange sighed and said, "I want to know who you are, Fellow Daoist Tiancan."
Tiancan was stunned and his eyes became fierce. "What do you mean, Fellow Daoist Qin?"
Mo Tiange said faintly, "First of all, aren't you afraid that I have a friendship with Ling Yunhe and will pretend not to know him so I can pin down other people?"
Tiancan narrowed his eyes and stared at her without saying anything.
Mo Tiange continued, "Second, even if you're sure I have nothing to do with Ling Yunhe and we don't have any friendship, you shouldn't say these things to a stranger, right?"
Tiancan's hands were clenched.
"Finally, what's the point of saying these things to me, Fellow Daoist Tiancan?
Do you think you'll believe whatever I say? "
After listening to her, Tiancan stared at her without moving or saying anything for a long time.
Mo Tiange just smiled. In other people's eyes, they were just chatting and didn't have any dispute.
After a while, Tiancan finally let go of her. He looked at Mo Tiange and said calmly, "Now isn't the time to tell you who I am. Just like Fellow Daoist Qin, you also concealed your background.
However, I can be frank with you. I said these things to you because I want to find a temporary companion. It's better than taking risks alone. "
Mo Tiange raised her eyebrows and asked with a smile, "Why me?
Fellow Daoist Yang is also good. Although he's only in the early stage of the Core Formation realm, his strength doesn't seem inferior to ours. "
Tiancan shook his head, stared at his hands and said faintly, "Fellow Daoist Yang is a Devil Path cultivator and the disciple of one of the three Devil Monarchs. I don't want to have any entanglement with him.
Besides, Fellow Daoist Qin's strength surpasses ordinary middle stage Core Formation cultivators. She's stronger than Fellow Daoist Yang. "
"But I'm a female cultivator." Mo Tiange looked at him with a smile. "Generally speaking, even if there's a gap between the middle stage and the early stage, I'd still think it's safer to choose a male cultivator, right?"
Of course, she didn't think she was weaker than male cultivators. However, it was a common phenomenon in the cultivation world to value men over women.
Even if the cultivation level of male cultivators was slightly lower, they'd still think male cultivators were more reliable because male cultivators were more decisive in handling matters. In a life-or-death situation, male cultivators could perform better.
Upon hearing her question, Tiancan glared at her angrily. "So what if she's a female cultivator?
Is Fellow Daoist Qin also someone who belittles himself? "
Mo Tiange was a little surprised by his anger, but she didn't get angry. She just shook her head and reminded him, "Fellow Daoist Tiancan, if your behavior is suspicious, I won't dare to form an alliance with you."
Tiancan was stunned by her words, but he slowly calmed down.
When he completely calmed down, Tiancan said, "On our way here, I've observed Fellow Daoist Qin's behavior. She's no worse than male cultivators.
Fellow Daoist Yang, on the other hand, has an extraordinary identity, so I don't want to have anything to do with him.
There are six of us in total, and those three are in the same group. That being the case, I don't have any other choice. "
Mo Tiange nodded, accepting his explanation.
She thought for a while then said, "Fellow Daoist Tiancan, does that mean you're going to agree to Ling Yunhe's offer and continue taking risks?"
Tiancan nodded. "Yes.
I have to say Ling Yunhe's very powerful. Since we're already here, even if he wants us to leave on our own, we still have to consider whether we can leave safely or not.
On second thought, he offered us such a generous reward, which is very tempting. Moreover, he has no reason to harm us at this time, so it's worth a gamble. "
"But there's a risk after this, right?"
Mo Tiange continued, "According to Fellow Daoist's inference, after we find the Carefree Fruit, they might turn hostile."
"Exactly. This is the reason why I want to form an alliance with Fellow Daoist Qin." Tiancan stared at Ling Yunhe, who was still meditating, with deep fear in his eyes.
