I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory

Chapter 324.2



The Shenxu Taoist Master produced a jade bottle and said, “Inside this bottle are our Taoist Sect’s unique divine pills—the Divine Dragon Bone Pills. There are three in total, each worth a life. As compensation, that should suffice, right?”

“Divine Dragon Bone Pills!” Sword Elder’s heart tightened.

He knew of these divine pills, the Taoist Sect’s exclusive healing elixirs, made from over a hundred rare and precious natural ingredients, only a few of which were produced every hundred years, each worth a fortune.

The greatest effect of these pills was healing.

No matter how severe the injury, even if every bone in the body was broken and all organs shattered, consuming one of these pills would lead to a rapid recovery, as good as new.

It was that miraculous!

Sword Elder very much wanted them, but this was Mo Yuyan’s private matter, and the decision was hers to make.

Mo Yuyan was also greatly tempted by the three pills.

Her main purpose for coming was to seek revenge. Having beaten her opponent to a cripple, she had almost vented her anger.

Killing the opponent under the protection of their Great Grandmaster was impossible.

Thus, demanding a substantial benefit to compensate for her loss was acceptable.

“Fine, I’ll accept these pills! From now on, our grudge is settled!”

Shenxu Taoist Master smiled: “Lady Mo is truly reasonable!”

He tossed the pills over. Mo Yuyan caught them smoothly, nodded to Sword Elder, and the two left the place.

“Senior, why are we treating them so courteously?” someone asked, puzzled.

Shenxu Taoist Master sighed: “That woman has not only Great Xia behind her but also a mysterious Great Grandmaster. Her background is profound! Our Taoist Sect is in a state of disrepair, and it would be unwise to offend both Great Xia and that Great Grandmaster at the same time. Trading three pills to resolve the grudge between us is well worth it!”

“But this way, our Taoist Sect’s face is lost, and the outside world will laugh at us!” someone said unwillingly.

Shenxu Taoist Master laughed generously: “We are cultivators. Why care so much about face? Let them laugh if they want to, it will pass. What can they really do to us? Remember, surviving for a long time is the ultimate path!”

“Yes, Senior, we have learned our lesson!” the crowd said, ashamed.

Shenxu Taoist Master thought for a moment: “I heard that our Taoist Child Song Yufei is quite close to the Great Xia Emperor?”

Someone panicked: “Senior, that’s true. I’ll reprimand her when we return and tell her to keep her distance!”

This person was Song Yufei’s master and also a Grandmaster of the Taoist Sect.

“Ah!” Shenxu Taoist Master waved his hand: “You misunderstand me! My point is, since they have a relationship, let them interact more and strengthen ties!”

“Ah, this…” Everyone was confused.

Shenxu Taoist Master sighed: “Times have changed. Great Xia is no longer a force we can afford to offend! It’s better to resolve enmity rather than deepen them. We can have Yufei mediate and resolve the conflict between us. Those who act with virtue receive aid, those without, few.”

“Yes, Senior!” the crowd responded.

Shenxu Taoist Master waved his hand again: “Everyone disperse! Yuxu, come with me, I will help you heal.”

“Senior, thank you!”

……

Although the battle was over, news of it spread at an unbelievable speed, drawing much mockery.

“Lady Mo took on the Taoist Sect and won?”

“This isn’t the main point, okay? The main point is that the Taoist Sect was openly challenged and not only did they fail to deal with the offender, but they also gave gifts and apologized. Isn’t that too cowardly?”

“Yeah, the Taoist Sect is one of the transcendent powers in the world today, and yet they bowed their heads to the other party. How is that reasonable?”

“When I first heard this news, I couldn’t believe it at all!”

“A power that’s so cowardly has no right to dominate the world!”

However, no matter how others gossiped and mocked, the Taoist Sect did not respond, as if they had pinched their noses and accepted it.

So, while everyone continued to laugh at the Taoist Sect, they looked up to Great Xia even more, and its reputation soared.

Because this was a power that even the Taoist Sect bowed to.

……

Not long after, Sword Elder and Mo Yuyan returned to the Great Xia imperial palace and reported the specifics to Lin Beifan.

Lin Beifan nodded and said with a smile, “It’s good that you’re back safely!”

His gaze turned to Mo Yuyan, “I heard that the Taoist Sect compensated you with three Divine Dragon Bone Pills?”

Mo Yuyan immediately became alert, “What are you planning? I earned these with my life!”

Lin Beifan explained, “I want one or two to give to Wanqing to see if she can study the formula! Don’t worry, I won’t take them for nothing. We’ll make a fair trade, how about that?”

Mo Yuyan thought about it and felt the deal was worthwhile.

After all, she had three pills, and it wouldn’t be a problem to trade one or two of them.

“Okay, but besides that, I want to ask you a few questions, and you must answer truthfully!”

Lin Beifan nodded, “Sure, one pill per question.”

“That’s too expensive. Can I ask more questions?”

Lin Beifan shook his head, “No! Who knows what you’re going to ask? If it involves state secrets, those are more precious than the pills. Should I answer or not? If you don’t want to, let’s forget it. After all, I don’t really need the Divine Dragon Bone Pills!”

“Wait! Let’s do it your way, one pill per question,” Mo Yuyan said urgently.

Lin Beifan smiled, “Ask your questions, I’m all ears.”

Mo Yuyan’s expression became serious, and she looked at Lin Beifan intently, asking clearly.

“My question is, what is the relationship between the senior behind me and Great Xia?”
