"You know, Fang Qingxue, you’re just unlucky and your fortune is shallow. You’re not ant to enjoy these Spiritual Energy Pearls. So let , Wan Xuegui, do a good deed and look after them for you."
Ye Tianling said with a wicked laugh, mimicking Wan Xuegui’s arrogant tone.
Fang Qingxue’s pupils contracted, and rage manifested in her eyes. "Wan Xuegui, that’s enough! If you’re going to steal them, just steal them. Why all the taunts and jeers?!"
Ye Tianling glanced at the gushing Spiritual Spring, unconcerned. He gave a disdainful smile and didn’t bother to reply.
Fang Qingxue hesitated slightly, then said, "Wan Xuegui, let’s negotiate. How about this? We split the Creation Ice Blood Lotus fifty-fifty. You give two Spiritual Energy Pearls—you give the pearls first, and then I’ll give you three Creation Ice Blood Lotus Seeds."
Ye Tianling’s face showed contempt. "You give the Creation Ice Blood Lotus first. After I’m done with its Refinent, you and I can engage in Yin Yang Harmony. If you do that, I’ll definitely give you the Spiritual Energy Pearls."
Fang Qingxue’s expression turned cold. "Then there’s nothing to discuss."
Ye Tianling said leisurely, "I never intended to negotiate with you in the first place. You’re overthinking it. I’m afraid that if I follow the agreent, you’ll just give fake Creation Ice Blood Lotus Seeds. Wouldn’t I lose my shirt then?"
Upon hearing this, Fang Qingxue’s expression imdiately turned ugly.
She already knew that after she’d sched against this ’Wan Xuegui’ once, it would be difficult to do so again.
Even so, she was a little surprised that Wan Xuegui had suddenly gotten smarter.
But she didn’t suspect the truth.
"Fine! In that case, we’ll each rely on our own abilities when the ti cos!"
Fang Qingxue replied in a cold voice.
"Yep, like I said, your luck hasn’t arrived. As for the next treasure that flies out of the Spiritual Spring, I, Lord Wan, will reluctantly take it all. I won’t be polite about it."
Ye Tianling chuckled slyly.
Fang Qingxue snorted. "If you have the skill! Our Cultivation is suppressed right now. Who’s stronger, who’s weaker, and who will even survive is still up in the air!"
Ye Tianling was nonchalant. "Whether we live or die, who’s stronger or weaker—what does any of that matter? As long as I can suppress you, snatch the treasures you want, and make you miserable, I feel that life is just wonderful!"
Fang Qingxue’s face grew even uglier. "Wan Xuegui, you’re simply courting death!"
Ye Tianling nodded. "Yeah, I’m courting death. So, make your move. Let see that incredible strength of yours!"
Fang Qingxue’s face darkened. "You will!"
Ye Tianling burst out laughing. "Hahaha, the Spiritual Spring is about to spit out another treasure! Your scrawny, ugly appearance isn’t nearly as tempting to as a real treasure!"
Fang Qingxue’s body trembled; she was so angry she nearly fainted.
Just then, Ye Tianling’s figure shot toward the Spiritual Spring once again.
"Ti to snatch so treasure!"
Ye Tianling shouted.
Fang Qingxue was stunned for a mont, then imdiately shot off in pursuit of Ye Tianling’s figure.
At that mont, however, Ye Tianling’s figure suddenly doubled back, passed his original spot, and rushed toward the other side. At the sa ti, his hand reached out into the void.
A streak of flowing light flew out, transforming into a transparent, ancient-looking Heavy Sword.
The Heavy Sword was extrely heavy, weighing nearly a thousand jin in his hand.
Ye Tianling’s hand dipped, but he controlled it steadily.
"’Elental Magnetic Evil-cutting Sword’! Wan Xuegui, you—how did you know that sword would suddenly appear there?"
Having gone in completely the wrong direction and seeing the ’Elental Magnetic Evil-cutting Sword’—a Treasure Sword of at least Celestial Tier Top Grade—fall into ’Wan Xuegui’s’ hands, Fang Qingxue’s heart sank, and her expression turned grim.
Once is a coincidence; twice is not so simple.
"Of course I, Lord Wan, knew. But I’m not telling you! Hehe, you know, Fang Qingxue, you’re just unlucky and your fortune is shallow. You’re not ant to enjoy this ’Elental Magnetic Evil-cutting Sword,’ so let , Wan Xuegui, do a good deed and look after it for you."
Ye Tianling repeated the taunt with a playful smile.
Hearing this, Fang Qingxue bit her lip, managing to swallow her anger without exploding.
Ye Tianling, however, paid her no more mind. Instead, he carefully examined the ’Elental Magnetic Evil-cutting Sword’ in his hand, a satisfied look in his eyes.
Under the power of his Soul Talent, information about the ’Elental Magnetic Evil-cutting Sword’ appeared.
Elental Magnetic Evil-cutting Sword (Sealed): Upper Grade Spiritual Artifact (Damaged), Evolvable. Contains the Power of Elental Magnetic, possesses hidden Divinity. Can be Devoured.
Perceiving this information, Ye Tianling’s heart skipped a beat. ’My luck is really in,’ he thought to himself. ’When fortune smiles on you, it really rains treasures from the heavens.’
Holding this sword, Ye Tianling felt an indescribable sense of ease. It seed to form a profoundly mystical bond with his Emperor’s Qi Sword Body, a type of Sword Venerate Dominating Body.
So far, aside from the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword, this was the most suitable sword for him.
The Fiery Sun Sword was good, but it could easily expose his connection to the Dragon Race and his identity as Ye Tianling.
As for the Profound Ice Cold Iron Heavy Sword, its quality and feel were far inferior to the sword in his hand now.
"Wan Xuegui, I am willing to offer five Creation Ice Blood Lotus Seeds in exchange for two Spiritual Energy Pearls and this sword. We can make a soul oath!"
Fang Qingxue was single-mindedly focused on breaking through imdiately, so she lowered her stance and made the proposal.
Her inner thoughts, however, were not so simple: ’Once I step into the Void Realm, this place may not be able to contain , Fang Qingxue! With power, what is a re Wan Xuegui?! Heh, just a struggling ant I can crush with a single stomp!’
"You swear the oath first! After you swear, I’ll give you the Spiritual Energy Pearls right away."
Ye Tianling’s eyes flickered. He had already vaguely deduced Fang Qingxue’s malicious intentions but wasn’t bothered by them.
Fang Qingxue’s beautiful eyes locked onto Ye Tianling’s, as if she were scrutinizing sothing.
Ye Tianling didn’t back down either, eting her gaze directly.
"Fine. I will swear the oath first, and then you swear one. After the oaths, you give the Spiritual Energy Pearls, I’ll give you five Creation Ice Blood Lotus Seeds, and then you give the ’Elental Magnetic Evil-cutting Sword’!"
Fang Qingxue was defeated by ’Wan Xuegui’s’ unscrupulous, fierce gaze and chose to compromise.
Ye Tianling’s gaze grew even more impudent and brazen, roaming freely without restraint. At the sa ti, he reminded her, "Don’t try to play any word gas. Otherwise, when I start playing gas, you’ll be the one crying."
Fang Qingxue’s elegant brows knitted together. "When I, Fang Qingxue, make a promise, my word is my bond. Do you think everyone is as shaless and untrustworthy as you?"
Ye Tianling just chuckled slyly and didn’t answer.
Fang Qingxue took a deep breath and swore solemnly, "I, Fang Qingxue, swear upon the supre inherited bloodline Battle Soul of the Fang Family’s ancestors, that once Wan Xuegui gives both Spiritual Energy Pearls, I, Fang Qingxue, will definitely give him five Creation Ice Blood Lotus Seeds! If I break this vow, may everyone in my Fang Family perish under myriad tribulations and be reduced to ash!"
A peculiar glint appeared in Ye Tianling’s eyes. ’This Fang Qingxue is still playing tricks!’
She didn’t swear on herself, but on the entire Fang Family.
Ye Tianling imdiately deduced that Fang Qingxue’s relationship with the Fang Family was likely extrely hostile.
After finishing her oath, Fang Qingxue’s cold, beautiful eyes locked onto Ye Tianling. "Wan Xuegui, are you satisfied with this oath?"
A satisfied look appeared on Ye Tianling’s face. "Satisfied, of course I’m satisfied. Alright, I, Wan Xuegui, swear on the peerless inherited bloodline of the Wan Family’s Sword Ancestor Wan Jimie, that I will first give two Spiritual Energy Pearls to Fang Qingxue. If Fang Qingxue fulfills her promise and gives five Creation Ice Blood Lotus Seeds, I will definitely gift the ’Elental Magnetic Evil-cutting Sword’ to her. If I break this oath, may the Wan Family’s Elder Wan Jimie and I, Wan Xuegui, be sealed in a latrine pit by villains, unable to escape for ten thousand years!"
Fang Qingxue nodded slightly, a hint of satisfaction on her face.
Ye Tianling didn’t hesitate. He directly took out two Thunderous Pearls and said, "Here are the Spiritual Energy Pearls. Check them, lest you say I’m trying to trick you with fakes."
With that, Ye Tianling raised his hand and tossed the two Thunderous Pearls over.
Check them? It was impossible to use Soul Power in this place, and Fang Qingxue didn’t have a Soul Talent. It would be a miracle if she could tell the difference.
And once Fang Qingxue consud the Thunderous Pearls...
The scene would be too spectacular. Ye Tianling didn’t dare to imagine it.
