Upon seeing her father, Zhang Yunxi’s eyes betrayed her respect for him.

She had grown up listening to her father’s stories, so she admired this legendary man!

Zhang Yunxi respectfully bowed. “I have successfully completed my mission and brought back the sacred item.”

The Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader gradually nodded. “Good job.” His voice was emotionless.

Zhang Yunxi hesitated for a moment before she said, “Esteemed father, when this Divine Firmament Drager Pendant appeared, the Divine Lightning Origin exploded and assimilated into a few fated people.

“If they train in our sect’s lightning techniques, they will definitely be able to have high accomplishments. I think that we should send our people to guide them into the sacred ground and train.”

Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader kept silent for a while, then replied calmly, “Permitted.”

Although his voice was not cold, it was still emotionless. It was as if the person sitting there was not a living person but a robot.

Zhang Yunxi stared at the Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader and sighed after a long time. “Then I’ll take my leave.”

The Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader did not reply, so Zhang Yunxi turned and left. Then, the doors of the Sacred Leader’s palace closed once again.

From the beginning till the end, the Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader had not shown even a shred of concern toward his daughter.

The old Taoist priest tilted his head as he looked at the Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader. “You’ve secretly practiced that evil technique again?”

The Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader looked at the old Taoist priest. “Senior Brother, you know that it is not an evil technique.”

The old Taoist priest pouted. “You’re severing all your emotions and desires. Is it still not counted as an evil technique?”

The Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader said calmly, “Senior Brother, you’re overly stubborn.”

The old Taoist priest snorted. “Just to complete Decalamity? The one who is being stubborn is you!”

Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader asked, “Yunxi said that the Divine Firmament Drager Pendant is in your hands?”

The old Taoist priest nodded. “Why? Your daughter asked me to safeguard it.”

The Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader said, “Thank you, Senior Brother. You can give the jade pendant to me now.”

The old Taoist priest said righteously, “No, I promised Little Xiao’er that no one could snatch it away from me.”

Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader: “???”

The lightning surrounding the Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader was cackling while the rising and sinking thick heavenly aura was surging non-stop. It was obvious that his emotion had fluctuated.

“Senior Brother, the Drager Pendant is the token of a Sacred Leader.”

The old Taoist priest smiled and said, “So what? You’re not the first Sacred Leader without the token!”

Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader replied, “The Drager Pendant is related to the rise and fall of our sect. Senior Brother, please stop joking.”

The old Taoist priest laughed in amusement. “Oh my, Junior Brother, you’ve finally become anxious?” Alright, I can give you the Divine Firmament Drager Pendant. However, you have to promise me a few conditions.”

The Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader said coldly, “Senior Brother, please speak straightforwardly.”

The old Taoist priest sized up the Sacred Leader. “Laugh for me first, then.”

The lighting jumping on the Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader’s body became even more violent, and the heavenly aura was also falling apart. His eyes were as pressing as the lightning, staring daggers at the old Taoist priest.

“Senior Brother, please don’t joke around.”

The old Taoist priest twitched his lips. “Aren’t you training the Heavenly Dao Sutra to complete Decalamity?”

“Xiao’er has already brought back the Drager Pendant. Why haven’t you disposed of that technique? What are you waiting for!?”

The Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader replied coldly, “You don’t understand, Senior Brother. I have already seen the new realm.”

“It’s difficult to reach the top by following the Dharmic Dao. I wish to walk a new Dao. The Heavenly Dao Sutra is crucial, so It’s impossible for me to give it up!”

“Oh!” The old Taoist priest pouted. “Then, go and walk your new Dao! To prevent you from suffering a Qi Deviation, I’ll help you keep this pendant. In case you refuse to acknowledge your relatives and friends, then this pendant will be lost once again.”

After finishing, the old Taoist priest turned and walked toward the Sacred Leader’s palace’s exit.

In that instant, the whole Sacred Leader’s palace was filled with lightning, and the heavenly aura was surging like a tsunami.

Just as the old Taoist priest had stepped half a foot outside the Sacred Leader’s palace, a strange peal of laughter could be heard from the mist.

“Hehehehehe~”

That’s right, the Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader was laughing!

The old Taoist priest’s lips were slightly twitching. He was holding back so badly his lips were slanted.

The Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader said coldly, “I haven’t laughed in more than 100 years, so I’m not used to it. Senior Brother, please don’t laugh at me. I have already done as Senior Brother said, so you can give me the pendant now!”

The old Taoist priest replied, “It’s only the first condition, there are three more!”

Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader replied coldly, “Senior Brother, please speak straight to the point.”

The old Taoist priest counted with his fingers. “The first condition! Since I saved your daughter, I’ll need to receive remuneration. According to my price in the black market, each time I make a move costs 1,000,000 Spirit Stones.

“Seeing that it was to save Little Xiao’er, I’ll give you a 12% discount. Also, your daughter even ate a Great Golden-Winged Eagle’s thigh.

“After the discount, the remuneration must be at least 500,000 Spirit Stones, don’t you think?” You can’t just refuse to acknowledge this!”

The Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader said coldly, “1,500 Spirit Crystals. Senior Brother, please state your second condition!”

“Nice!” The old Taoist priest chuckled before saying, “Senior Brother, as you can see, I am already in the Soul Formation stage, but I don’t have a Spirit Mountain. Could you let me pick a Spirit Mountain to train?”

“This is impossible, definitely impossible!”

The Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader interrupted the old Taoist priest, the heavenly aura around him surging vigorously.

The so-called Spirit Mountain referred to a mountain peak that had bred a Spirit Stone Vein. Within the Divine Firmament Small World, there were a total of 36 Spirit Mountains. As long as one’s cultivation level reached the Soul Formation stage, they could become the leader of a Spirit Mountain and accept disciples.

Originally, Elder Azure Lotus, Chu Longhe, also had his own Spirit Mountain, and its quality was excellent. The problem was that this idiot was so obsessed with training the Tinder Sutra when he was in seclusion that he had almost sucked the Spirit Stone Vein dry.

Afterward, the spirit medicines, spirit herbs, and spiritual flowers on the Spirit Mountain directly withered, and it almost became a barren mountain.

According to a Spirit Ore Appraiser, this Spirit Stone Vein could only recover its vitality after at least 1,000 years.

One had to know that Spirit Stone Vines were cultivation sects’ foundations.

Only those cultivation sects with one or more Spirit Stone Vinea were qualified to be called a Blessed-Land.

Only those with three or more Spirit Stone Veins were qualified to be called a Grotto-Heaven.

Only those with 10 or more Spirit Stone Veins were qualified to be called a Sacred Ground.

Although this was just one of the deciding factors, it was still enough to show the importance of a Spirit Stone Vein.

Chu Longhe had already damaged such an important strategic resource, and now, he actually wanted a second one? How could the Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader agree?

The Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader said helplessly, “Senior Brother, state your third condition.”

The old Taoist priest smirked and said, “The third condition is very simple. Our sect’s ancestors had promised that the fated one who finds the Drager Pendant and completes the Lightning Imperial Sutra could become the Saint of our sacred ground. If he is willing, he can even marry the Saintess.

“Junior Brother, you have both a son and daughter, while even that long-faced Fang Chang is your disciple.

“As such, you can’t fight with me for that fated person. He has to become my apprentice. Also, his monthly Saint salary, I will help him collect it. That’s right when he marries your daughter, you can’t ask for a betrothal gift.

“Yeap, basically just these three requests. It’s not too much, right?”

The Sacred Leader’s reluctant voice echoed from within the fog-like heavenly aura. “You want to be the master of our sect’s Saint?”

At that moment, the bright lightning was cackling, and the heavenly aura stopped surging.

“Senior Brother, bring our Spirit Mountains’ map over! Which Spirit Mountain did you take a liking to?”
