Bab 25: Chapter Twenty-Five ~ Tournament of Pride(10)
"Shishishi…hmmhahmmm…Shwwahahahaha!"
Covering his eyes, Song Shoushan began to laugh uncontrollably. Disappearing midway and reappeared; hugging Wei Jian.
" Welcome to the family! Come! Come here, my child.
" Let me see you and my future son-in-law together!"
It was a complete 180 from how he treated Wei Jian earlier. But to Wei Jian and Song Meihu, it was a better ending than they had expected. Breathing a sigh of relief, regaining her composure, Song Meihu began to rebuke her grandfather for not trusting her.
Cupping his hand, Mo Xin would greet Wei Jian, " I would like to change your perception of me. Wei Jian, was it? I, Mo Xin, of the Mo family request your help.
Wei Jian never felt wrong by Mo Xin. It was a simple matter of familial problems that obstructed his training. But still, he was cautious since he notice the change in attitude since his performance.
" What exactly are you proposing?"
" I propose an equal trade. In that I need your help; in return, you will receive a once-in-a-lifetime chance to enter our family's ancient treasure vault."
' This exchange is greatly advantageous for him. What's the use of his family's vault when I would have more resources available from the Song's vault.'
" Lad, I would take that deal."
Song Zixuan would interrupt their conversation. In contrast to Song Shoushan, his father, Song Zixuan was a humble, yet strict person. While Song Shoushan was the one with more bravado and anger issues.
" Even if you marry my daughter since you are not a true bloodline of my family. You wouldn't be able to enter our family's vault.
" Our family's vault is ingrained to only allow the patriarch of the family to enter. She is not the only child. I have multiple children, and Meihu is not in the line for succession."
Having said what he wanted, Song Zixuan would beckon Wei Jian to think more carefully about Mo Xin's proposal. Of course, if the problem that the Mo family is having trouble with is solved; it would greatly help his own family. Since his family was the reason that Mo Xin was able to meet Wei Jian.
" What exactly do you need me to do, Mo Xin?
" If it's about the pill ingredients and method, then I am unable to give you such. Since it is not my right to give away."
" Since that is not an option, then Wei Jian I would like you to refine the pill instead. Do not worry, I am not trying to replicate your pill.
" I only want your pill so that I can solve a matter that has affected my family for a long time."
Not wanting to dig further into the problem that Mo Xin was unwilling to name and express.
" Well, if you are in need of my pill then I would like to change my part. Instead of gaining entrance into your family's ancient vault, I would rather obtain these materials."
Handing over a list of ingredients that he quickly wrote down. Mo Xin would again break character, and gasp at the things Wei Jian wanted.
All materials are of the highest and rarest grade. Four of them were treasures that the Mo family held in high regard. While the rest were scarce and incredibly hard to gain in the current season.
Seeing how shocked Mo Xin was, the rest would read the list of ingredients. They too were stunned that Wei Jian was so bold to ask for ingredients that they, the Song family, barely have enough stored away.
" Beastial Blood Rose, Blood Pellet, bones from a tenth rank magical beast, etc..
" Wei Jian, what could you possibly want with these materials?"
Song Meihu was the first to speak. The ingredients she had listed were essentially unobtainable currently. The Beastial Blood Rose was a flower that sprouted from the pools of magical beast blood, that natural form from the corps of dead magical beasts.
Would take thousands of years since the process of absorbing the blood takes forever for any the rose to take in the powerful Beastial Qi that is not from the dantian since magical beasts and monsters keep Qi in their blood.
While the Blood Pellet was a treasured ingredient for unorthodox sects that wished to use it for sacrifices and to soak in. It can only be formed from the blood of hundred of thousands of dead.
This was difficult since, at the moment, there haven't been any battles or conflicts between factions in their seven kingdoms. Since not far from now, there would be an event that all kingdoms looked forward to. So conflicts ceased so their people could grow and genius could flourish.
' These ingredients, are they that hard to get? From the information that I have, I thought it was easy to obtain. I guess not. But what I'm asking to what I need, is vastly different. I need 3x of each ingredient on the list. '
" To answer all of your thoughts and questions. These are all materials that I was left with when I was saved."
Of course, it was another lie, what could he do. Wei Jian was in a mess since he can't just tell them that he has the memories of this supreme being and that he is not their Wei Jian. But one from a different realm and time.
Yet the matter ended with only small suspicion that Song Shoushan had hidden in front of Wei Jian. Afterward, Duan Xiulan and other elders would finally arrive. What they would see was Wei Jian shaking hands with Mo Xin of the Mo family. And in succession, the Song family's patriarch and ancestor would greet them before leaving for the small village below the sect.
