The Immortal Cultivation World Is Too Dangerous: I Return to Earth as a Divine Sage Chapter 27 - Nearly a Hundred Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual
Chapter 27: Nearly a Hundred Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual dicines Are About to Be Obtained
Regarding the claim from the dicine family that they only have twenty divine dicines, Zhao Qingzhi didn’t believe a single word of it.
As leaders of top-tier families, their styles might vary slightly, but their thods were more or less the sa. If he were Yao Lai, in charge of the dicine family, and soone demanded their spiritual dicines, the number he’d declare would be a fraction of the truth, at best. He was certain that the twenty divine dicines were, at most, a small portion of the dicine family’s stored divine dicines.
As for why he only doubled the amount, it wasn’t because he didn’t want more. Rather, if he asked for too much, Yao Lai, knowing that spiritual dicines could be exchanged for certain secrets in Kunlun, would definitely be reluctant to part with them. He would likely try to stall, hoping to negotiate for less.
Ti was critical for Yao Lai. And for Zhao Qingzhi, it was equally important.
He didn’t know when Ye Yang would invite the next mber. If a new mber joined while he was negotiating with Yao Lai and also contacted Yao Lai, it would complicate things. One person could eat their fill, but two would go hungry.
As long as he was the only one making the introduction, he held the upper hand. If another person entered the picture, his leverage would turn into a re option, and Yao Lai would gain the upper hand.
Now, by using Yao Zi’er’s entry into Kunlun and the temptation of allowing her to stay close to Ye Yang, doubling the amount would ensure Yao Lai wouldn’t waste too much ti before agreeing.
Sure enough, upon hearing Zhao Qingzhi’s words, Yao Lai thought for barely ten seconds before looking at him heavily and saying, “Fine, forty divine dicines. I agree.”
“But Brother Zhao, how did you know that a woman with the Wisdom Root can stay by Mr. Ye’s side?” Yao Lai asked with a smile after agreeing.
“My granddaughter also has a Wisdom Root and, as of yesterday, has already left with Mr. Ye,” Zhao Qingzhi replied.
“Oh?” Yao Lai responded. “Then congratulations, Brother Zhao. For one family to have two people join Kunlun is remarkable.”
“Sa to you, Brother Yao. Soon, you’ll be in the sa position,” Zhao Qingzhi said.
“Brother Zhao, you keep ntioning this Wisdom Root. How are its levels classified? And what are the levels for and my granddaughter?” Yao Lai suddenly asked, looking at Zhao Qingzhi.
“Wisdom Root levels are divided into four tiers: low, dium, high, and top-tier,” Zhao Qingzhi explained. “Brother Yao, you have a low-level Wisdom Root, and your granddaughter has a dium-level Wisdom Root.”
“And what about you and your granddaughter’s Wisdom Roots?” Yao Lai asked.
“We’re just slightly higher than you. I have a high-level Wisdom Root, and my granddaughter has a top-tier Wisdom Root,” Zhao Qingzhi said with a smile, not hiding anything.
Even if Yao Lai hadn’t asked, he would have subtly revealed their Wisdom Root levels.
The purpose was simple: to intimidate Yao Lai and make it clear that, even if they joined Kunlun, there was still a gap between them.
Zhao Qingzhi even planned to use this opportunity to win over Yao Lai and his granddaughter, Yao Zi’er. In Kunlun, he would take the lead, and by Mr. Ye’s side, his granddaughter, Zhao Ling’er, would be the leader.
“High-level and top-tier Wisdom Roots?” Yao Lai asked after a mont of silence. “Brother Zhao, what’s the difference between these Wisdom Root levels?”
“There’s not much difference, just that so items in Kunlun may require a certain Wisdom Root level to be exchanged,” Zhao Qingzhi explained. “For example, the Bone-Strengthening Pill I took to increase my strength yields greater benefits for higher Wisdom Root levels. One pill for might require two or even three pills for soone with a low-level Wisdom Root to achieve the sa effect.”
“It seems this Wisdom Root level is akin to the concept of aptitude in so TV dramas or movies. The higher the Wisdom Root level, the greater the aptitude,” Yao Lai mused. “With one high-level and one top-tier Wisdom Root in the Zhao family, their status in Kunlun will surely be significant. If Kunlun and Mr. Ye truly exist, my dicine family will need to find an ally in Kunlun. Otherwise, as more mbers join, the status of my family, with only my and Zi’er’s Wisdom Root levels, will gradually diminish.”
After hearing Zhao Qingzhi’s words, Yao Lai fell into deep thought.
“Brother Zhao, when can you introduce to Mr. Ye?” Yao Lai asked, looking up after his contemplation.
“When the spiritual dicines are delivered, I’ll introduce you to Mr. Ye,” Zhao Qingzhi replied.
“Today, I’ll first send the divine dicine to extend your life,” Yao Lai said solemnly. “Tomorrow morning, the remaining thirty-nine spiritual dicines will definitely be delivered.”
“Good. Then tomorrow, I’ll arrange for you to et Mr. Ye on ti,” Zhao Qingzhi said.
“It’s a deal,” Yao Lai nodded.
“It’s a deal,” Zhao Qingzhi affird with a nod.
…
“Yao Lai agreed to give Zhao Qingzhi forty spiritual dicines so readily, which ans the dicine family still has a substantial amount of spiritual dicines left—at least no less than forty,” Ye Yang thought. “It seems tomorrow I’ll be reaping nearly a hundred heavenly and earthly spiritual dicines. I wonder if there’ll be any top-tier spiritual dicines like the Longevity Flower among them.”
Inside the villa, through the perspective of the mission jade token, Ye Yang watched the conversation between Yao Lai and Zhao Qingzhi conclude. A look of joy appeared on his face as he began to quietly anticipate the level of the spiritual dicines that would be delivered tomorrow.
