  Chapter 518 - Decisive Refusal

  This was the arrogance of someone who came from a great power.

  It was also the answer given by his understanding of He Song's character over these months.

  It was just a Jindan demonic beast.

  It wasn't worth letting He Song, a Jindan cultivator from a major power, pull down his face and do something out of the ordinary.

  People from big powers still valued their face.

  It was not as if they would immediately publicize this matter after knowing about it.

  Therefore.

  Even if He Song didn't agree, he still had time to continue planning this matter.

  However, without He Song's participation, he was afraid that this matter would not be as smooth as he had imagined.

  As thoughts flashed through his mind, a color of anticipation surfaced in True Lord Fei Hu's gaze towards He Song.

  And with Fei Hu True Lord's genuine invitation.

  He Song's eyes flickered, and in his heart, there was a hint of relief for the decision he had made when he felt something in his heart a few months ago.

  At that time, after He Song had abruptly realized that the Zhao Family's attitude towards him was slightly off, he had made a decision in his heart.

  That was, no matter what the Flying Tiger True Lord wanted to ask himself to do next, he could not agree.

  After all, even before the two parties had met, the people of the Zhao Family had already faced themselves with a grand welcome.

  One could imagine just how big the matter that True Lord Fei Hu was asking for this time would be.

  Within these few months.

  He Song had been pondering over the warm welcome he received when he first set foot in the Zhao Family.

  As well as the subsequent things that True Lord Fei Hu had come to his door from time to time to talk with himself, was there something hidden in it.

  However, due to the lack of any clues, he had to give up in the end.

  But today.

  As soon as he heard True Lord Fei Hu talk about this matter, He Song's heart jumped.

  Here it comes!

  The thing that he had not guessed for months had finally surfaced today.

  At this moment, He Song's heart let out a slight sigh of relief.

  Finally, there was no need to guess the matter anymore.

  However, very quickly, the content of what True Lord Fei Hu had said at this time flashed through He Song's mind.

  Capturing a Jindan demonic beast?

  A double-winged white tiger?

  Four, or even five Jindan True Lords working together?

  Listening to what True Lord Fei Hu said, this matter seemed very simple.

  As long as He Song agreed, then very soon, True Lord Fei Hu would be able to organize four to five Jindan True Monarchs to go out together to capture this Jindan demonic beast, the Twin-winged White Tiger.

  There were at least four, if not five Golden Dan True Monarchs out there together.

  Plus, the cultivation level of that Twin-winged White Tiger was only equivalent to an early Jindan cultivator.

  In such a situation, wouldn't that be a handful?

  With such thoughts flashing through his mind, He Song's gaze didn't move as he looked at the Flying Tiger True Lord in front of him, who was eagerly looking at him.

  A strand of doubt flashed through his mind as well.

  Were things really as simple as what True Lord Fei Hu had said?

  The scarcity of Jindan demonic beasts, He Song is also considered to be quite heard of, previously he was able to know from Su Qian's message that there are Jindan demonic beasts in Yunzhou, but it was only by chance.

  Moreover, He Song did not know what happened to the Jindan demonic beast.

  Afterwards, Su Qian never mentioned the whereabouts of that Jindan demonic beast.

  However, He Song had practiced in the Immortal Cultivation World for nearly two hundred years, but only by chance, by coincidence, he had heard once about the existence of Jindan demonic beasts.

  I am afraid that the scarcity of Jindan demonic beasts is far beyond imagination.

  If the news is leaked.

  Or if there were any accidents in the process of capturing this Jindan demonic beast.

  I'm afraid that it would soon be able to attract the attention of many Jindan True Lords.

  At that time.

  Perhaps this matter of capturing the Jindan demonic beast would turn into a Jindan melee.

  Once that happens, I'm afraid the consequences will be hard to predict.

  He Song only deduced a little in his mind and realized the great danger hidden in this matter.

  True Lord Fei Hu wanted to capture this Jindan Spirit Tiger as his own spirit animal.

  Then, he would definitely need to tell others about this.

  After telling others about this matter, even if True Lord Fei Hu offered a huge reward, I'm afraid that it wouldn't be able to stop people's greed.

  Whether it was to inform He Song or the other Jindan True Lords in the Zichuan Prefecture, there was the possibility of the news leaking out.

  After learning about this matter, knowing that a Jindan Spirit Beast existed in Zi Chuan Prefecture, would other Jindan True Monarchs use this matter as a bargaining chip to conspire with other cultivators?

  One must know that by actually going out to help True Lord Fei Hu capture this Jindan demonic beast, one would receive nothing more than the reward promised by True Lord Fei Hu.

  But if you use this information as a bargaining chip to conspire with other cultivators.

  Maybe what you get is a Jindan demonic beast.

  A Jindan spirit beast that can make itself stronger quickly, and with the passage of time, it will get stronger and stronger.

  Naturally, it could make the Jindan True Monarchs who were already in the Golden Snake Sect's sphere of influence and who had studied the art of guarding beasts think differently.

  Moreover, if they were not willing to take the risk of this method.

  It was also possible to send this message out to some cultivators of prominent status.

  For example, a Jindan elder with the presence of a division amongst a certain YuanYing upper sect.

  Perhaps, with the scarcity of this news, one would be able to obtain some unexpected benefits from the other party.

  In short.

  The news of this Jindan demonic beast was a very valuable existence.

  If a True Lord Fei Hu did this, it was likely that he would lose his wife and his army, and he would be a dowry for others for nothing.

  However, when he thought of this, another thought flashed through He Song's mind.

  If he himself could think of this, it was naturally impossible for True Lord Fei Hu, who was the party involved, to not think of this as well.

  No fools existed in the Immortal Cultivation World.

  As a Jindan cultivator, True Lord Fei Hu naturally could not be a fool either.

  In other words.

  Since True Lord Fei Hu had already chosen to inform himself of this matter, did it also mean that True Lord Fei Hu wasn't worried that this news would leak out from himself?

  With such thoughts flashing through his mind, He Song secretly did some calculations, and the thoughts in his heart became certain.

  With He Song's character, even if he knew about this matter, he would definitely not tell others about it.

  Even if True Lord Fei Hu had only known him for a few months.

  However, Fei Hu True Monarch did sincerely want to make friends with He Song in these months.

  Even if he had started out with the idea of having He Song help him capture Jindan demonic beasts.

  However, the subsequent months of befriending was also sincere.

  Although True Lord Fei Hu's ultimate goal had now been displayed in front of He Song.

  However, Fei Hu True Lord's purpose was considered human.

  Besides.

  Didn't He Song also learn a lot of hidden secrets that he had never known before from True Lord Fei Hu's mouth in the past few months?

  He Song was able to make True Lord Fei Hu keep coming to find himself in these months, but in fact, it was also with a purpose.   

  He wanted to know more things that interested him from True Lord Fei Hu's mouth.

  During these months, He Song had gained quite a lot.

  And when He Song learned that True Lord Fei Hu's purpose was actually just to invite himself and let him go with him to capture that Jindan demonic beast.

  He Song, who had already been prepared not to agree to anything Fei Hu Zhen Jun requested, would only feel that Fei Hu Zhen Jun's efforts over the past few months were afraid that they had all gone down the drain.

  In a situation where he hadn't lost anything and seemed to have made a profit, He Song naturally wouldn't feel any ill feelings towards him in his heart even if he knew about it.

  After all, in these few months, Fei Hu Zhen Jun's befriending was real.

  Although He Song had decided long ago that he would not participate in it, he would definitely not do such backstabbing things.

  Of course.

  The main reason that made He Song disregard this matter.

  Still, in the past few months, he had gotten quite a few hidden secrets from True Lord Fei Hu's mouth that he didn't know before.

  For He Song, the news he got from True Lord Fei Hu's mouth was still relatively helpful to him.

  This Fei Hu True Monarch had also helped He Song a great deal, allowing He Song to have a better understanding of the hidden secrets in the Immortal Cultivation World.

  On top of that, He Song had already thought of not getting involved in any of the things that True Lord Fei Hu had said.

  Moreover, he was also going to leave this place very soon.

  Next, anything that happened here would no longer have much to do with He Song.

  Under these premises, as long as True Lord Fei Hu didn't stop him from leaving this place or do anything out of the ordinary to He Song.

  He naturally wouldn't be the villain to leak this matter out on the premise that the other party had helped him.

  Thoughts flashed through his mind.

  After a moment's thought, He Song directly shook his head slowly under Fei Hu Zhen Jun's eager gaze.

  "I'm not hiding it from you, fellow Daoist, my stay here is actually only for the purpose of acquiring some things."

  "Now, these things will be able to be delivered to my hands in a few more days."

  "At that time, it will naturally be time for me to leave."

  "I will stay here for a few months, and I will still continue on my journey, not staying too long."

  "As for what you said, I can pretend that I have never heard it before, and I will keep my mouth shut."

  "After a few days, after I take the items sent by the Treasure Pavilion, I will leave immediately, and will not affect your great plan."

  "My strength is low, I'm afraid it's difficult for me to take on this great responsibility, I still hope that you, Taoist friend, will bear with me."

  Rising, arching his hand.

  He Song's words of refusal were spoken without hesitation.

  Rather than looking for other reasons to pass this matter off.

  It would be better to directly inform True Lord Fei Hu of the purpose of his coming here, and directly inform him of the date of his departure as well.

  In this way, he would be able to let True Lord Fei Hu know of his determination to refuse.

  It was also able to erase the chance in True Lord Fei Hu's heart.

  He would be completely disillusioned as to whether or not He Song would be able to agree to this matter.

  In this way, even if he offended True Lord Fei Hu, it would not cause True Lord Fei Hu to have too much enmity towards himself.

  After all, He Song's justified and clear refusal was better than dragging on and disappearing at the last minute.

  After doing so, even if the two of them met somewhere else, they would still be able to smile at each other and call each other friends.

  If He Song really is a casual excuse, and then drag this matter until leaving the Purple River state capital completely disappeared, then I am afraid that will really will be Fei Hu Zhen Jun offended to death.

  If the two of them met in the future, I'm afraid that they would have to settle their grudges.

  Letting himself have one more enemy for no reason is something that He Song is never willing to do.

  Therefore, He Song said the words of refusal without hesitation and did not think of dragging this matter on.

  In this regard.

  True Lord Fei Hu heard it clearly.

  In his heart, he could not help but sigh with it.

  In the past few months, although he had approached He Song from the very beginning, his heart had carried the idea of waiting until the time was ripe to ask He Song for help.

  But with the passage of several months, Fei Hu Zhen Jun's idea of utilizing He Song was no longer the same as in the beginning.

  After a few months of getting along, after really understanding He Song's character, Sovereign Fei Hu had a sincere intention to befriend He Song.

  These months.

  When Sovereign Fei Hu talked with He Song, He Song would occasionally talk about some things about himself.

  Although Fei Hu True Monarch does not know whether what He Song said is true or false, and how much is sincere.

  But as a Jindan True Monarch, Soaring Tiger True Monarch had seen all kinds of cultivators.

  In these cultivators, can such as how the pine, character almost can be said to be undisputed cultivators, is really not rare.

  He had taken out his own treasures and let He Song observe them.

  He had taken out his own treasure and let He Song observe it. He had also quietly checked He Song's color change in the dark.

  However, he saw that He Song did not show any greed at all.

  He had tentatively said that there were treasures outside the immortal state, and if He Song was interested, he could go out to get them.

  After hearing this news, He Song didn't have the intention to go and check it out.

  After a few times, he realized that there was a treasure beyond the immortal state.

  After realizing that He Song's character is not a fake, even He Song's words do not seem to be a fake.

  Flying Tiger True Monarch gradually realized the intention to befriend He Song.

  He did not need to guard against He Song as he did against other Jindan True Monarchs.

  Because He Song was afraid that he would not be able to look at the treasures on his body at all.

  In such a situation, why would he need to guard against the other party?

  Such a person who did not need to be guarded against, and who had no conflict of interest with him, and who was also familiar with him, True Lord Fei Hu naturally could not easily offend the other party.

  Therefore, after hearing He Song's refusal, although Fei Hu True Monarch felt regret in his heart, he did not have any rebuttal to He Song's words.

  Only after hearing He Song's refusal, he shook his head regretfully, and a sigh followed in his mouth.

  "That's just it, since Fellow Daoist is about to leave, then I won't say any more."

  "Fellow Daoist doesn't need to be so assured, since I was able to inform you of this matter, I won't worry about you informing others of this matter."

  "Fellow Daoist's character is still something I trust."

  "Just . After you leave, if you have the occasional free time, you can also come to the Zi Chuan Prefecture to look for me."

  "When you come again, I will definitely receive you again."

  Arching his hand towards He Song, True Lord Fei Hu spoke quietly.

  It was also considered an acceptance of He Song's statement.

  However, in his heart, he was also quickly calculating the next thing.

  Next, shouldn't he get in touch with a few other Jindan True Monarchs in the Zi Chuan Prefecture?

  At this point, He Song had already clearly refused.

  There was no point in dwelling on it any longer.

  It would be better to do his best to finalize this matter as soon as possible.

  Taking advantage of the fact that that Twin-winged White Tiger was still in place and seemed to not have a full grasp of its power, he would take it down as early as possible to avoid a long night's sleep.
