Over The World, Beyond Heaven

Chapter 796: The Maneuver Full of Schemes (2)


"I agree! I'm willing to maneuver with your disciple!"

"Excellent! If so, then…"

"Wait a minute!"

Huh?

But before the elder demon could start the maneuver, Zheng-Fu interrupted, "Before starting the maneuver I'd like to ask for three days. Since I waste a lot of energy running away from dragon spirit monsters in the secret land, I need some time to recover my energy first. Would you mind?"

"Three days!? Isn't it that you want to escape the maneuver?" But the elder demon was dissatisfied with this request. He thought that Zheng-Fu would escape at that time.

"A man's word is his bond. You can have your people watch in front of my camp to make sure that I won't run away!" Zheng-Fu retorted. He knew what the elder demon was thinking.

Seeing Zheng-Fu's unhesitating and very firm reply to his words, the elder demon thought that Zheng-Fu did not lie. But even so, he still did not trust him anyway since during these three days, Zheng-Fu might receive many magic items to help him. Therefore, he would have to reduce his time.

"I can only give you two days, if you don't agree, this matter won't end easily!"

"All right! Two days is fine. Thanks, Master Elder, for your kindness!" Zheng-Fu thought for a moment before agreeing, he was sure that within two days he would be able to make great progress with the gift that Ling-Ying gave him.

With the agreement finished, the elder demon and the Demon Sect disciples left, leaving one disciple to keep an eye on Zheng-Fu.

"Disciple Zheng-Fu, are you confident that you can defeat the elder demon's disciple?" Elder Li-Xiao-Bai asked after everything had calmed down.

"I'm not that sure. It all depends on these two days, sir!" Zheng-Fu did not want to answer any more questions. Because even if he said it, no one might believe it.

"But you seem to have very high confidence. However, the other party is a second-level Deity Soul stage cultivator, you should be very careful tomorrow. Even if I'm the elder of the Sacred Heavenly Saber Divine Sect, I can't help you. All I can do is say my blessings to you!" Ran-She-San-Cou spoke up, while using his psychic power to carefully examine Zheng-Fu. Anyway, he was unable to sense inside Zheng-Fu's body. He only knew Zheng-Fu's current energy level.

"Thank you, Master Elder Ran-She-San-Cou, for blessing me. I'll be very cautious and do my best, sir. Win or lose, it's my decision," Zheng-Fu immediately turned around to reply to the middle-aged man with a smile on the corner of his mouth. It showed that he knew the other party was examining his body.

Ah!

The middle-aged man instantly had a stunned expression as he saw Zheng-Fu's smile before he quickly regained his composure and smiled at Zheng-Fu, satisfied with his ingenuity, "Great! Then you must try your best. I'll be watching your maneuver in the next two days." Then he turned to say to his disciple, "All right! Sacred Heavenly Saber Divine Sect disciples can go back to the camp!"

"Your name is Zheng-Fu, right?"

At the same time, after Ran-She-San-Cou and the other Heavenly Saber Divine Sect people had all left, a middle-aged woman who was an elder of the Sacred Heavenly Star Divine Sect walked over to him.

"Yes, Master Elder Mie-Xiang-Qi, my name is Zheng-Fu. I'm the main disciple of the Sacred Heavenly Command Sect, sir. Do you have anything to say to me, Master Elder?" Zheng-Fu turned to answer the middle-aged woman politely.

"I have to thank you for saving our disciples. And in return for what you've done, I'll give you this eighth-level divine pill. Hope it can help you more or less!" Mie-Xiang-Qi said and took out a pill to give Zheng-Fu.

"Thank you so much, Master Elder Mie-Xiang-Qi, for your kindness. But I can't take it because what I did was not for the sake of reward. But it's something that we, dharma cultivators, should do. I couldn't even take this precious pill. Please forgive me for my rejection!" Zheng-Fu immediately rejected Mie-Xiang-Qi's goodwill. It was not because he did not want this divine pill, but because he wanted to impress this female senior master.

Ha ha ha!

Clap! Clap! Clap!!

"That's a good speech! Very nice words, Kid! Your words impressed me quite a bit. You know, I'm also thinking of giving you a gift. But since you say so, it's a shame that the gift I'm going to give you wouldn't be accepted either!" After Zheng-Fu finished speaking, Elder Mou-Dong-Tian's satisfied laughter and applause suddenly rang. Before he spoke in a sad tone, referring to Zheng-Fu's previous words of not wanting to accept any gifts in return.

Ah!

Mou-Dong-Tian's words caused the expressions of the surrounding elders to change, especially Mie-Xiang-Qi. She knew this elder was a stingy person. He did not want to waste any belongings or treasures anyway. Therefore, the elder used Zheng-Fu's words as an excuse.

'This old man is so miserly. Umm! If you don't give it to me, I don't want to take it. After all, I have a lot of things that can help me. But you must remember that in the future you won't get anything from me at all!' Zheng-Fu glanced at this elder and could tell his character well at once. But he did not want to say anything bad, just determined not to cooperate or give anything to this elder.

"Thank you, Master Elder Mou-Dong-Tian, for your generosity in thinking of giving me your gift. But as I have said, I did it because I wanted to help, not expecting anything in return," Zheng-Fu said, feigning gratitude towards the elder as a formality. Before he turned to Mie-Xiang-Qi again and spoke, "But this Elder Master Mie-Xiang-Qi's eighth-level divine pill is very necessary for me. Then shall we exchange?"

Although this eighth-level divine pill was extremely rare, it was not too difficult for him to find. However, right now, he needed everything that would increase his energy. But he could not get the pill for free so he thought of exchanging it instead.

Exchange?

Mie-Xiang-Qi even had a shocked expression on her face. She could not understand why Zheng-Fu would say such a thing. It was hard to believe that Zheng-Fu would have a property or magic item comparable to this eighth-level divine pill. But even so, she still nodded and said, "Yes! But what would you want in exchange for this divine pill?"

"What I'm going to exchange for this pill is, of course, its equivalent. Otherwise, it would be insulting and disrespectful to Master Elder. And that item is this one."

Flop!

Huh?

"That's a Dragon Ginseng root, isn't it? It seems to be over 5,000 years old!"

As soon as Zheng-Fu took out a dragon-shaped ginseng root, the shocked shout of an elder who had not left yet sounded. And it was not just this elder who knew how valuable this ginseng plant was. Everyone knew that this 5000-year-old Dragon Ginseng root could be concocted into more than a hundred eighth-level divine pills. Because of its lifespan of over 5000 years, it only needed a small amount to concoct pills each time. And it could concoct 2-3 eighth-level divine pills at a time.

"This item is worth more than my medicinal pills. I can't accept it," Mie-Xiang-Qi immediately refused. She was the most honest and fair person, so she did not want to take advantage of Zheng-Fu.

"Not at all, Master Elder! I think it's very worthwhile and appropriate for this exchange because besides receiving the eighth-level divine pill, I have also come to know a Master Elder who is honest and sincere as well as so kind. Giving you this 5000-year-old dragon root is really worth it!"

Zheng-Fu shook his head before saying that he was willing to trade this time. And of course, he also deliberately said the other words to taunt the elder who was staring at them with envy.

Ah!

Mie-Xiang-Qi noticed that Zheng-Fu was glancing at Elder Mou-Dong-Tian. And when she thought and reviewed Zheng-Fu's words, she realized something, before she smiled happily like never before.

"All right! I'm going to take this 5000-year-old Dragon Ginseng root, but I still think it's too much. So, I'll give you one more eighth-level divine pill. And I'll promise you that I'll help you fully in everything whenever you need!" Mie-Xiang-Qi said with a smile on the corner of her mouth. She also spoke loudly about supporting him when he was going through trouble.

"Thank you, Master Elder, for your kindness! Then I need to excuse myself because I don't have much time left!" Zheng-Fu saw that a lot of time had passed, so he said goodbye to go back to his room. And to cut off the conversation so that no one could continue to say anything.

Ah!

Of course, Zheng-Fu leaving like this made Elder Mou-Dong-Tian extremely dissatisfied. Since he also wanted to trade things with Zheng-Fu. However, Zheng-Fu excused himself and left before he could say anything.

"Master Elder Mou-Dong-Tian, I think he really needs some time. You wouldn't want to make him waste his time, would you?" Mie-Xiang-Qi walked over to the elder and stopped in front of him. She spoke to him, implying that she would never allow the elder to disturb Zheng-Fu.

Tsk!

"I just wanted to say a few words to him. But since he had something to do, I wouldn't be able to say anything. But first, I must congratulate you for obtaining a 5000-year-old Dragon Ginseng root in exchange for just two eighth-level divine pills!" The elder was halted because his energy level could not compete with Mie-Xiang-Qi. Besides, he did not want to make this small matter a big deal, so he backed off. But before leaving, he left a slightly sarcastic remark to the middle-aged woman.

Ha ha ha!

"That's because I was sincere and gave without expectation. So, I got such a reward!" Mie-Xiang-Qi could not help laughing aloud. She knew well what the other party wanted to say, she was not an innocent young woman, so she said back something sarcastic as well.

Ah!
