98: C98 Tong Dacheng of the Northern Dark Sect

C98 Tong Dacheng of the Northern Dark Sect

No wonder Lo Qianqian gave him the information about the Heaven Mending Lotus after knowing that he had broken through to the Core Formation realm.

Su Yuan thought as he walked towards the place Lo Qianqian marked.

There were no surprises or dangers along the way, but after Su Yuan saw Lo Qianqian's mark, his expression couldn't help but become extremely gloomy.

There was only a little root left over there, and the Heaven Mending Lotus had long disappeared without a trace!

No one knew when, but this rare spirit medicine had been taken by someone else first!

But this was Su Yun's life-saving treasure. How could Su Yuan be so willing to accept it? He went forward and carefully examined it, and found that the root was quite complete. The one who took the herb should be a human cultivator and not a demon beast. Moreover, it was not a very long time ago. If one's luck was good enough, it might not be impossible to chase this herb back!

Thinking of this, Su Yuan did not delay at all. He looked in a direction and flew straight towards it.

At the stronghold of the Taixuan Sect at the northern border of Wu Kindom, Su Yuan's figure landed. He used his spiritual energy to transmit his voice.

"Who is the person in charge here? I have something to ask of you!"

Not long after that, a middle-aged man came out and bowed respectfully to Su Yuan.

"I am the person in charge here, Meng Lang. May I know what instructions this senior has?"

Su Yuan scanned the surroundings with his Spiritual Sense. He could tell that this Meng Lang was a Spirit Gathering Level Nine warrior. Without saying anything, he threw his inheritance jade token to him.

"I am the disciple of Taixuan Sect, Su Yuan. I need to ask you something!"

Meng Lang took the jade token and carefully examined it for a while. Then, he returned the jade token with both hands and bowed again. This time, his attitude was much friendlier.

"So it's senior disciple Su. What does senior brother want to ask? I will tell you everything I know!"

Su Yuan didn't waste any time and went straight to the point.

"Since you are the person in charge here, do you know if there are any Core Formation cultivator in the northernmost region?"

Meng Lang chuckled.

"Of course I do. The northernmost region isn't as crowded as the other places in the Wu Kindom. There's only one Core Formation cultivator. The current Sect Leader of the Northern Profound Sect, Tong Dacheng, is a figure who has been stuck at the first level of the Core Formation Stage for decades!"

Su Yuan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he hurriedly said.

"Where is the Northern Profound Sect?"

Meng Lang rolled his eyes. "That place is very remote. The Northern Dark Sect is closed all year round, and it is not led by an acquaintance. Even a Core Formation realm expert would find it difficult to find it. If Senior Brother Su wants to go, why don't you let me lead the way?"

Su Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "Alright, then I'll have to trouble you."

"No trouble, no trouble!" Meng Lang took out a compass Spiritual Treasure from his Storage Bag and stepped on it. "Senior brother, please follow me!"

The two of them flew together. Although Su Yuan was burning with anxiety, he was patient and followed behind Meng Lang.

Along the way, Meng Lang kept getting close to Su Yuan, but Su Yuan did not have the mood to care. He just responded coldly. After a few times, Meng Lang did not dare to say anything and quietly led the way.

After a while, the two of them arrived at a mountain of ice and snow. Meng Lang looked around, found a spot, and shouted out loudly.

"Where is Sect Master Tong? I have something to ask for an audience!"

The voice was transmitted out, echoing back and forth between the mountains and rivers.

Su Yuan's eyes revealed a puzzled expression, but before he could ask, he saw the space within the mountains and rivers suddenly ripple like the surface of water. After the ripple dissipates, another scene appeared before his eyes.

A few palaces and pavilions appeared out of thin air. Dozens of figures stood in the middle of the square and were looking at them from afar.

The old man at the front shouted loudly.

"Mister Meng isn't enjoying himself in the stronghold. What do you want to do in my poor place?"

There was a slightly vigilant expression on his face. Obviously, the impression Meng Lang gave him wasn't too good.

Meng Lang chuckled.

"Sect Master Tong, please don't blame me. Today, I'm not looking for you because of him. It's a senior brother of our sect who has something to discuss with you."

"Oh?" Tong Dacheng's gaze turned and rested on Su Yuan. When he clearly saw that Su Yuan was relying on his own strength and not some external object that was floating in the sky, his pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly as he cupped his fists towards Su Yuan.

"May I know why this friend of Taixuan Sect is looking for me?"

Su Yuan had already seen most of the overall strength of the Northern Profound Sect.

Apart from Tong Dacheng, there were only twenty or thirty disciples in the Northern Profound Sect. There were only two Spirit Gathering Level Seven and above disciples, a dozen Spirit Gathering Stage disciples, and nearly ten Body Transformation disciples.

Such a force was much weaker than the Taixuan Sect. Su Yuan even felt that if he attacked, the entire Northern Profound Sect might not be able to stop him.

However, he did not come here specifically to make enemies. Immediately, he cupped his fists and returned the greeting. He spoke in a very polite manner.

"I would like to ask Sect Master Tong if you have taken the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and Heaven Mending Lotus from the nearby snow mountain not long ago?"

There was no overbearing tone in his voice. However, Tong Dacheng and the few disciples beside him could not help but have a change in expression when they heard this.

Joy immediately appeared in Su Yuan's eyes. He understood that the person who took the Heaven Mending Lotus was most likely this Tong Dacheng.

Indeed, in the next moment, Tong Dacheng said with a gloomy expression.

"That's right. Why are you asking this?"

Su Yuan cupped his fist and bowed deeply.

"This Heaven Mending Lotus is of great use to this Su. This Su urgently needs to use it to save the lives of important people. I hope that Sect Master Tong can give it up! As an exchange, Sect Master Tong has a request. This Su will naturally satisfy it with all my might! "

The moment these words were spoken, Tong Dacheng's expression instantly became even gloomier, and the few young disciples beside him couldn't help but say angrily.

"This is too excessive. Those who are fated to obtain natural treasures will obtain them! Why do you think we have to give it to you just because you want it?"

"You make it sound nice. This is clearly forcing us to buy it and sell it!"

"Even if the Taixuan Sect's strength far exceeds our Northern Profound Sect, we can't bully them like this, right?"

...

These words made Su Yuan's face turn hot, but he still forced himself to speak.

"This Su indeed wishes to use this Heaven Mending Lotus to save my life. It is not like I wish to forcefully buy it and sell it. Sect Head Tong, please state a condition. As long as this Su is able to do it, I will definitely be obligated to do so!"

Tong Dacheng shook his head.

"I believe that you are not coveting the value of this Heaven Mending Lotus, but you want to use this Heaven Mending Lotus to save your life. This old man also needs to use this Heaven Mending Lotus to refine a Pill to extend this old man's life. Please forgive me for not being able to comply with your request! "

Su Yuan's face stiffened. Before he could say anything, Meng Lang, who was beside him, shouted out.

"Tong Dacheng, think carefully before you speak! Senior disciple Su is kind to you because he doesn't want to use force to suppress you. Otherwise, with senior disciple's strength and status in Taixuan Sect, do you think you can refuse to take him by force?"

Su Yuan looked at him with dissatisfaction. Meng Lang immediately smiled obsequiously and said, "Senior disciple Su, you don't need to be so polite to this kind of outer sect cultivator. These are all a bunch of lowly bones! If you are kind, they will think that you are weak and easy to bully, but if you are a little tough... No matter how unwilling they are, they can only pinch their noses and admit it!"0
