On Spirit Charm Mountain, everyone was stirred by Jiang Ribai’s voice. Upon seeing this, Zhou Libai and her husband hurriedly activated the Mountain Protection Array to let Jiang Ribai in.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, what brings you here..."
Zhou Libai gracefully stepped forward to greet him with a warm smile, her husband following beside her.
Li An also stepped forward, maintaining basic etiquette, but Xiang Yuntian was not seen coming out.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, Fellow Daoist Ba,"
Jiang Ribai cupped his hands in salute, then glanced at Li An and said, "I don’t believe I’ve t this fellow Daoist before. Is he new?"
Zhou Libai replied, "Fellow Daoist Bai, you may not know that this is Fellow Daoist Lin An. He has been here for more than a year, brought over by Sister Shee."
Jiang Ribai’s eyebrows slightly raised, his smile not reaching his eyes, "He’s been here for a year, I suppose he didn’t go to the Ghostly Valley last ti?"
Otherwise, he should not be unfamiliar.
"There were so issues with my cultivation at the ti, so I was in seclusion, I hope Fellow Daoist can forgive ."
Li An gave a slight bow.
"Forget it!"
Jiang Ribai waved his hand. Though his temperant was quite arrogant, he was sowhat displeased, but facing a fellow True Core cultivator, it wasn’t possible to directly confront them. Basic respect was still necessary.
"I am here for the matter of the Great Lizard’s demon transformation. The Demon Transformation Flower is ready, but there’s still a significant lack of Spiritual Blood, so the Mountain Master asked to inquire around. Anyone who raises a Spirit Beast should contribute so—"
As Jiang Ribai spoke, he walked towards Lingdong Peak with Zhou Libai and her husband, who had invited him.
Zhou Libai’s expression slightly changed, "Spiritual Blood?"
Jiang Ribai smiled slightly, looking at Zhou Libai, "Indeed, Fellow Daoist Zhou, I’ve heard your butterfly is well-nurtured?"
Zhou Libai said, "Just barely..."
Though she said this, her heart was filled with hesitation and conflict.
Her butterfly had indeed produced so Spiritual Blood.
However, Spiritual Blood is extrely precious to a Spirit Beast, how could it be given away lightly?
Besides, among the Celestial Killer Mountains, why do most cultivators nurture Spirit Beasts? Is it not in the hope that the Spirit Beasts might achieve demon transformation, taking them into the ancient and powerful Demon Race, providing a foundation for their cultivation?
To give the butterfly’s Demon Blood to Jiang Ribai would an all her days of effort would be for naught...
But to refuse?
That... she dared not.
After all, the lizard Jiang Ribai nurtures is highly regarded by Mountain Master Bai, who personally nad it "Great Lizard," with its demon transformation expected soon, and Jiang Ribai’s status is bound to rise.
Daring not to offend.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou?"
Seeing her contemplative expression, Jiang Ribai reminded her, "Are you unwilling?"
Zhou Libai slightly bit her lip, still smiling, "What is Fellow Daoist Bai saying? The Great Lizard’s transformation is a trendous event, how could I not support it?"
As she spoke, a large black butterfly flew out from her sleeve.
The butterfly spread its wings like an eagle, its body armored, clearly not an ordinary creature.
"What a fine Joyful Union Butterfly!"
Jiang Ribai praised, then, with Zhou Libai’s assistance, extracted a small bottle of Spiritual Blood from the butterfly.
Seeing the Spiritual Blood flow out, Zhou Libai’s partner, Ba Jijian, seed to have a trace of displeasure in his eyes.
Li An was also stirred inside.
After a while, a small bottle of Spiritual Blood was filled.
Jiang Ribai did not take it all, leaving so Spiritual Blood for the Joyful Union Butterfly, but he took most of it, a state from which it would not recover for a decade or so.
Zhou Libai’s eyebrow twitched slightly, but she forced a smile, "Fellow Daoist Bai, you’re too kind—"
Jiang Ribai put away the bottle, then looked at Li An again, "Fellow Daoist Lin, where is your Spirit Beast?"
Li An replied, "Reporting to Fellow Daoist Bai, my Spirit Beast lacks the aptitude and has not produced Spiritual Blood..."
"Indeed, when I initially t Mountain Master Bai, my Spirit Beast was seen by both the Mountain Master and Miss Xiaoying."
This was a subtle reminder.
After all, although he had concealed the Cyan Fla Divine Sparrow well, he still did not want Jiang Ribai to see it.
After all, the Jiang Clan is too familiar with the Cyan Fla Divine Sparrow, and Jiang Ribai was once an elder of the family. Who knows if he might notice anything amiss?
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ribai narrowed his eyes slightly, "Fellow Daoist Lin, do you think the Great Lizard’s demon transformation ceremony isn’t important?"
Li An’s face changed slightly, hurriedly saying, "No, not at all..."
"Fellow Daoist Lin, it’s not that I, Bai, want to pressure you, but this is the Mountain Master’s order!"
He replied coldly.
Beyond requiring Spiritual Blood, it was also a kind of pressure.
After all, under Mountain Master Bai’s command, who doesn’t know how prominent he is now? Lin An had ignored his invitation before, and now again offered excuses, making him quite unhappy.
"Fine, I’ll go fetch the Spirit Bird,"
Li An had no choice but to say, turning around to leave.
"There’s also another peak, where soone should be cultivating as well, right? I observed and saw no signs of seclusion, Fellow Daoist Zhou, could you kindly call them over for ?"
Jiang Ribai spoke calmly, but with a coldness in his eyes.
At least Lin An ca out to greet him, but the people on Lingyuan Peak directly ignored him?
"Fellow Daoist Bai, it’s Xiang Yuntian at Lingyuan Peak, and he has a bad temper..."
Zhou Libai said.
"This is an order from Mountain Master Bai."
Jiang Ribai stated unequivocally.
Zhou Libai had no choice but to leave, heading to Lingyuan Peak to call for soone.
...
Li An returned to Spiritual Serenity Peak and had the Cyan Fla Divine Sparrow transform into its little red bird form again. He checked ticulously three to five tis to ensure there were no flaws before proceeding.
