C309 Phoenix nirvana (1/2)
The moment he thought about it, Zhan Tianming suddenly realized something.
Yes.
That should be it.
He finally understood why he had to reject the royal family's proposal for the third part of the hidden mission. It seemed that only by refusing the royal family's proposal would he be able to lead to the subsequent problems and allow the hidden mission to continue.
As long as this hidden quest continued, it was not impossible to preserve Sky Wind Country.
With that thought, the hesitation in Zhan Tianming's eyes disappeared.
”Brother Xie, Princess Bing Na, pardon me for not being able to agree to your request.” Zhan Tianming said calmly.
The atmosphere turned silent.
Xie Bingnuo looked at Zhan Tianming coldly, with a hint of despise in his expression.
”I didn't expect you to be such a person.”
Xie Bingnuo stood up and left coldly.
Xie Aoyu's face was also filled with disappointment, but he did not want to become enemies with Zhan Tianming. After hesitating for a moment, he cupped his fists and said: ”Since that's the case, then I will not force Daylight Brothers.”
After chatting with Zhan Tianming for a while longer, Xie Aoyu prepared to leave.
”Brother Xie, I would like to ask, where are Wei Jiang and the old drunkard right now?” Zhan Tianming called out to Xie Aoyu who had stood up.
Xie Aoyu said: ”The grievance of Wei Jiang's father has already been resolved, Jiuyuan County King Zhang Yang has confessed everything.”
”My royal father, in order to make up for Wei Jiang, has already conferred him the title of Great General Zhenyuan, allowing him to take over the position of his father. He should still be in the Linjiang City now.
Zhan Tianming nodded.
In this way, he was at ease.
However …
One more thing.
”Brother Xie, although I can't give you the Phoenix Blood Phoenix Crystal, if there's anything I can help with with on Sky Wind Country, I'm willing to do so in my capacity as an individual.” Zhan Tianming said solemnly.
”Thank you, Daylight Brothers.” Xie Aoyu expressed his gratitude.
”Also …” Zhan Tianming hesitated.
After all, he had just rejected Xie Aoyu's suggestion, and now, he actually wanted to ask for something from Xie Aoyu. He really didn't know what to say.
But without the Ice Crystal Jade Bone Dew, it would be useless even if he could help Wu Dao refine the Seven Apertures Pill.
Besides, he had other motives.
Zhan Tianming said, ”Brother Xie, I wonder if you have any Ice Crystal Jade Bone Dew?”
Xie Aoyu was slightly startled.
After a moment of hesitation, he nodded and said, ”Yes.”
”Earlier on, there was an assassin who wanted to trade something with me for this thing. Unfortunately, that assassin never appeared again. Daylight Brothers suddenly asked about this matter, what is his intention? ”
”To tell you the truth, I promised that assassin that I would help him save a person. And in order to save others, we will need the Seven Apertures Pills and the Ice Crystal Jade Bone Dew. I wonder if Brother Xie can transfer the Ice Crystal Jade Bone Dew to me? ” Zhan Tianming said.
”This... ”Please forgive me for not agreeing.” Xie Aoyu cupped his fists in apology and turned to leave.
Indeed!
Zhan Tianming had already expected such a result.
Since that was the case, he wouldn't force the issue. He reckoned that his relationship with Sky Wind Country would come to an end here.
But Zhan Tianming did not hate Xie Aoyu.
After all, he had just rejected Xie Aoyu, how could he expect Xie Aoyu to generously transfer the Ice Crystal Jade Bone Dew to him?
Considering from the other party's point of view, Zhan Tianming reckoned that he would do the same.
However, Zhan Tianming did not mind.
The words that he had said before, was just to confirm if he still needed to intersect with Sky Wind Country.
After all, even if Xie Aoyu wasn't willing to give it to him, he could still get the Ice Crystal Jade Bone Dew from the System Merchant Shop.
It was only a thousand Dragon Qi s, so Zhan Tianming could afford it.
After getting up, Zhan Tianming left the Sky Palace's Pavilion.
Before he left, the manager of the Sky Mansion's Ya Pavilion gave Zhan Tianming the two jin of Spirit Fog Tea that he had prepared.
This was what Xie Aoyu instructed.
Inside Lin Shangjun's Duke Palace.
In a courtyard.
Feng Tianyi and a dignified and elegant woman were waiting by the bed.
