Chapter 150 Poison Not Dead's Demand_1

"Long Aotian, you have lost,"

Vina looked at Long Aotian, no longer launching any attacks.

"Yes, I have lost,"

Long Aotian replied, his eyes filled with a dim light.

He was indeed proud, but he was not someone who couldn't accept defeat.

It's just that this result was a bit hard for him to accept.

After all, over the years, his strength had always surpassed Vina's.

"Alright, now that the competition is over, everyone should go back to their own tasks. The victor should not be arrogant, and the defeated should not be discouraged. If worse comes to worst, just train harder and win back what was lost,"

Poison Not Dead had also approached and spoke indifferently after taking a look at both participants.

"Yes,"

Long Aotian nodded firmly, "Time is on my side, and I will definitely become stronger."

After he spoke, he left without any hesitation or dragging his feet.

Seeing this, Qin Xiao's eyes flickered with light.

Long Aotian did have some substance to him.

Leaving everything else aside, just this state of mind was not something ordinary people could match.

It truly exemplified what it means to become more courageous in the face of setbacks.

"Qin Xiao, come with me."

Poison Not Dead glanced at Qin Xiao before walking off into the distance.

Qin Xiao did not hesitate and followed.

Before long, the two of them arrived one after another at the Sect Main Hall.

"The rest of you may leave."

Poison Not Dead dismissed the Body Sect disciples surrounding the hall.

For a moment, only he and Qin Xiao remained in the hall.

"Do you know why I called you here?"

"I do."

"For what reason?"

"I have reached the Soul King level, and as per the agreement between the two of us, you are to give me that hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast Embryo,"

Qin Xiao's gaze was fixed firmly on Poison Not Dead.

Poison Not Dead nodded, "Correct. That is one of several matters I have called you here for..."

Qin Xiao: "..."

Several matters, it just never ends, does it?

"Fine, then give me the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beast Embryo first,"

He extended his hand.

Poison Not Dead shook his head, "Let's talk about the other matters first. What do you think?"

Qin Xiao frowned, "Do you even give me any choice in the matter?"

"Haha."

Poison Not Dead laughed heartily, "I knew you would be willing to listen."

"The first matter, I hope you will not lower yourself to the same level as Long Aotian. He's still young and moreover, has never left the sect to see the outside world. Plus, as he's shown remarkable talent since he was young, the Elders in the sect, including me, have spoiled him too much, so he can be a bit impulsive in his actions.

But, he's definitely not malicious at heart..."

Qin Xiao nodded, "I can save you face. As long as what he does is not too much, I can overlook it."

Poison Not Dead nodded with satisfaction, "Good, I was not wrong about you. Don't worry. After this event, I believe Long Aotian will become much more composed and will likely not provoke you again. Unless he makes significant breakthroughs in his strength to fight with Qin Xiao..."

"Let's move on to the next matter," Qin Xiao didn't linger on the issue of Long Aotian with Poison Not Dead.

He was eager to secure the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beast Embryo as quickly as possible.

"The second matter is actually quite simple. I think that what you told Vina made a lot of sense, and it deeply enlightened her. Since you are so eloquent, I think you need to speak more..."

"No need to flatter me, just get to the point,"

Qin Xiao indicated for Poison Not Dead to get straight to the important part.

"Alright then...I'll cut to the chase,"

Poison Not Dead gazed intently into Qin Xiao's eyes, asking hopefully, "Would you be interested in becoming a teacher?"

"Become a teacher?"

Qin Xiao's eyebrows raised; he had never expected Poison Not Dead's proposal.

It had to be said, it was a bit outrageous.

"Don't worry, I'm not asking you to teach classes every day, just to provide some guidance to the most elite disciples of the Body Sect. On the way back, I thought about it a lot and felt this approach could really work.

After all, we are getting on in years and may have a generation gap with the younger people. Things we say may not be understood by them, but you are different. Just from a few words, you helped Vina realize the Unity of Heaven and Man. I think you can show those confused disciples of the Body Sect a clear path."

Poison Not Dead's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

Qin Xiao felt as though there were raging flames burning in his eyes.

"Alright then..."

One who accepts a favor is obliged to return it; Qin Xiao had no choice but to compromise.

But...

"I must say in advance, I can't guarantee that everyone will have an epiphany like Vina did. It's very possible that it was just a brainwave connection between her and me..."

There's no problem with talking straight from the start, Qin Xiao thought.

As the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

To prevent Poison Not Dead from being disappointed later on, Qin Xiao simply didn't give him any hope.

If there's no disappointment, then there won't be any, right?

"Hehe, I'm glad you agreed."

Poison Not Dead rubbed his hands together excitedly, "Man proposes, God disposes. Whether those brats have an epiphany or not is up to their own fate."

"Alright."

Qin Xiao nodded. Since Poison Not Dead had said so, there should be no problem.

He then asked, "Is there anything else?"

Poison Not Dead paused, then shook his head, "No, that's all."

As he spoke, he took a tray out from the Spatial Soul Guidance Device.

When the tray was brought out, the temperature in the hall plummeted suddenly.

Qin Xiao could see the white mist forming around the tray due to the drop in temperature.

Without a doubt, the tray in Poison Not Dead's hand was the Ninth-grade Soul Guidance Device, the Divine Seal Altar, which sealed the Snow Emperor!

"What are you waiting for? Isn't this the Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast Embryo you've dreamt of? Here, take it."

Poison Not Dead joked, "I'm telling you, you'd better be quick, or I might regret it. This is a treasure of our sect, after all."

If Jing Hongchen heard that, he would surely spit out three liters of blood.

You're giving away a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast Embryo that I bought for over a billion golden soul coins as a sect's treasure...How noble of you!

"Of course I want it."

Before the echo of Poison Not Dead's voice faded, Qin Xiao's figure blurred, and the Divine Seal Altar was already in his hands.

"Thank you very much."

Qin Xiao happily stowed the Divine Seal Altar away.

"Cough cough, I wouldn't mind if you called me Sect Master,"

Poison Not Dead coughed lightly, sitting up straight, awaiting those coveted words from Qin Xiao.

However.

Qin Xiao's response was, "Sorry, I mind."

Before his words even finished, Qin Xiao had already disappeared from the hall like a wisp of smoke.

Poison Not Dead huffed in annoyance, "You brat, would it kill you to call me Sect Master?

Don't forget to assemble in front of the Sect Main Hall tomorrow morning."

Qin Xiao gave no reply.

But Poison Not Dead was sure that Qin Xiao could hear him.

"I should inform Long Aotian and the others about this, so they make sure to come tomorrow," Poison Not Dead thought to himself, vanishing from the hall.

He pondered that if Long Aotian and Qin Xiao clicked brainwaves, Long Aotian's strength could rise again.

As for their little frictions.

Was that even an issue?

Kids tussle and play, it's normal, isn't it?
