Chapter 511: Daoist Fiercefire and Qin Yun

Translator: CKtalon Editor: CKtalon

Sect Master Jade Tripod and the Dao Protector stood to the side, not daring to utter a single word. They looked at Qin Yun with pitying eyes.

Fiercefire was in no hurry as he took a long glance at Qin Yun and continued drinking the alcohol casually.

"Fiends are evil and crazed in the way they handle things, but not all so-called esteemed immortals are gentlemen," thought Qin Yun. He learned this very well a long time ago. Before the fiends rose in importance, the ancient demons’ Heavenly Courts were destroyed in war, there was the battle of the three main Daoist schools of thought... All of these battles resembled pandemonium. Many sinister and underhanded means were used. Using strength to repress others was not even considered sinister. It could only be described as being domineering.

The strength of a mighty figure could be used for anything!

He was forcing a Skyimmortal to hand over a treasure that caught his eye. He even said: "Name your conditions! However, do not try to go overboard." This was already rather benevolent! It was much better than the way the fiends acted.

If he dared resist?

Even if he did not snatch it openly, he could find a random excuse to justify violence. "Puny Skyimmortal, how dare you offend me!" A simple line like that could send him to his death!

He could kill as he wished!

Over the long passage of time, many Daoists and Buddhists had perished. The Dao Ancestors rarely intervened when the disciples of their three schools fought each other.

In the Three Realms...

Strength was ultimately what mattered! If one was strong, the Heavenly Courts’ Jade Emperor and Queen Mother would treat them with respect. The weaklings were only ants in the vast Three Realms.

This principle was easy to understand, but Qin Yun felt aggrieved when he was on the receiving end of such treatment.

"Immortal Fiercefire." Qin Yun finally spoke.

"Oh? Have you thought it through?" Fiercefire looked at Qin Yun. From the side, Sect Master Jade Tripod and the Dao Protector took in everything silently.

"Immortal Fiercefire, so you need the White Jade Token when you do not cultivate in the Lightning Dharma?" asked Qin Yun.

"That is none of your business. Name your conditions and hand over the White Jade Token," Fiercefire said impatiently.

Qin Yun thought to himself, "He doesn’t cultivate the Lightning Dharma, but he still wants to forcibly take the White Jade Token for himself! He probably wants to use it to exchange for other benefits. By buying it from me at a relatively low price, he can then sell it to those who cultivate in the Lightning Dharma at a high price. Most of the gods in the Heavenly Courts’ Lightning Division cultivate in the Lightning Dharma. There is definitely no need to fear a lack of buyers for the White Jade Token’s spots."

"Immortal Fiercefire," said Qin Yun. "It’s not that I’m unwilling to sell it to you. It’s just that I have already sold three of the White Jade Token’s spots."

"You have sold three?" Fiercefire glared as he bellowed, "Are you trying to pull a fast one on me? You just obtained the White Jade Token and you have already sold half the spots? Do you think I’ll believe you?"

In fact, he had only sold one spot! It was to Sa Xu.

"I’ve really sold it." Qin Yun gave an earnest look.

"Hmph, news has only just spread. To exchange for more treasures, one should wait. If you wait till more immortals come to you to purchase the spots, you can compare the offered conditions and choose the best. That’s expected." Fiercefire looked coldly at Qin Yun. "And now, you are telling me you have sold three spots in such a short period of time?"

"I’m not a greedy person," said Qin Yun with a smile.

"Fine." Fiercefire said indifferently. "Since you say you have sold three White Jade Token spots, I’ll believe you for now. But if I were to discover that you are lying. Hmph..."

"I naturally wouldn’t dare lie to you," said Qin Yun.

Fiercefire continued, "Then give me the White Jade Token! I’ll bring along the other three Green Touring Palace disciples with me into the Lightning Beast Manor when the time comes. As for the remaining three spots, name your conditions."

Qin Yun frowned slightly, but he said, "I require Connate Wonders of the Wood, Fire, and Earth elements. A total of three Connate Wonders. It’s fine if each Connate Wonder’s price is that of ten supreme-grade Numinous treasures."

"Hmph!"

Fiercefire grunted furiously. "You really dare raise such conditions!? And three Connate Wonders at that? I will give you one Connate Wonder and a supreme-grade Fire Dragon Barrier Numinous treasure. Although this Fire Dragon Barrier is inferior to the Connate Numinous treasure, the Nine Dragon Divine Fire Barrier, it’s still rather powerful. The offer I make is quite good. Punk, don’t be too greedy."

Qin Yun was secretly fuming when he heard that.

The conditions he raised were considered ordinary. He did not lose out too much from them.

But Fiercefire was not even offering to meet half his conditions?

"In that case, I’m willing to give one spot to you, Immortal Fiercefire," said Qin Yun with a smile. "There are just too many senior brothers and sisters that want the remaining spots. Immortal Fiercefire, I hope for your understanding."

If he could put up with the overbearing attitude, he would do so.

"Giving it to me?" Fiercefire smirked. "Are you hoping I will owe you karma?"

"I’m giving it to you of my own accord," said Qin Yun with a smile. "It’s just a gift."

"I’ve already said that the White Jade Token is to be given to me!" Fiercefire’s expression turned cold as he looked at Qin Yun. "Why? Do you not understand what I’m saying? Or is it that you have not sold a single of the White Jade Token’s spot? Are you just trying to fool me?"

Qin Yun finally understood what was happening.

He was not satisfied with a single spot.

Then there was nothing he could do for it.

"Immortal Fiercefire, it looks like you are trying to bully the weak with your strength and trying to steal it from me forcibly?" said Qin Yun softly.

"Did you just say I’m trying to steal if from you forcibly?" Fiercefire’s expression turned grim.

By the side, the hearts of Sect Master Jade Tripod and the Dao Protector were palpitating from the conversation.

"Gentlemen, gentlemen, negotiation is always possible," said Sect Master Jade Tripod immediately.

"Now that immortals from all over the Three Realms know I have obtained the White Jade Token," said Qin Yun with a sneer, "now when the news has only just spread; here you are trying to snatch it from me forcibly. Why? Do you have the guts to do it, but lack the guts to admit it?"

Fiercefire’s face flushed red. His eyes suffused a murderous glint. "Well done. To think you are trying to bully me. If your true body was here, I would have smacked you to death for that!"

"I would not dare bully you, Immortal Fiercefire. I believe the various fellow Daoists of the Three Realms will know who’s the one doing the bullying," said Qin Yun.

If his true body was there...

Qin Yun would really have to bear with the injustice!

If it wasn’t an avatar, Fiercefire could truly be shameless enough to kill him. That would be tragic.

Fortunately, there was only an avatar here! Qin Yun was naturally unafraid.

As for his family? His wife and children?

Fiercefire was a third-generation Jade Void Palace disciple after all. It would have been fine if he found a reason to attack Qin Yun, but to attack his weak family because he could do nothing to Qin Yun? He would become the laughing stock of the Three Realms!

"Good, very good." Fiercefire stood up. "You are gutsy."

"I’m only an ordinary Green Touring Palace disciple. I’m in no way comparable to you, Daoist Fiercefire," said Qin Yun.

"Uncle-Master Yang is here," said Sect Master Jade Tripod suddenly.

Qin Yun and Fiercefire turned their heads over.

Yang Song entered the cave abode and from afar, he said with a laugh, "Brother Qin Yun, news of you obtaining the White Jade Token has already spread in the Three Realms."

Qin Yun also stood up to welcome him. He was rather impressed by Yang Song. "Brother Yang, have you taken care of things for those innocents?"

"Uncle-Master Yang." Sect Master Jade Tripod and the Dao Protector also came to welcome him.

"Yes. I came after I settled them in. They are a bunch of pitiful people," said Yang Song with a smile. When he saw Fiercefire, he could not help but say, "Senior Brother Fiercefire, you are here too?"

Only then did Fiercefire walk over. He looked at Yang Song coldly and grunted, "How dumb of you to destroy your future!"

"I’m inferior to you, Senior Brother. There was never hope of me becoming a Golden Immortal. It’s not really considered destroying my future," said Yang Song.

"Hmph!"

Fiercefire flicked his sleeve and immediately streaked across the sky in the form of a fiery beam before vanishing into the horizon.

"Why is Senior Brother Fiercefire in such a bad mood?" Yang Song was alarmed.

"He had a falling out with Sword Immortal Qin," said Sect Master Jade Tripod.

"I offered to give him a White Jade Token spot for free, but he was unsatisfied, and was insistent on taking them all. Then, I’m not giving him a single spot," said Qin Yun with a laugh. "I can’t satisfy his voracious appetite."

"Oh?" Yang Song nodded slightly. "It does match Fiercefire’s temperament and the way he does things. He has a hot temper and is somewhat overbearing in his dealings. He often acquaints himself with Golden Immortal mighty figures! He naturally thinks nothing of you, Qin Yun. However, you have to be careful now that you have stubbed your foot. He might one day find a reason to kill you."

Qin Yun said with a smile, "Don’t worry. My true body is in Green Touring Palace. He can’t do a thing to me for the time being. However, Brother Yang, Daoist Fiercefire is your senior brother after all. By saying this about him..."

"So what if I criticize him? He can be ruthless towards you, but can he do a thing to me? I’m his junior brother!" Yang Song thought nothing of the matter.

...

His avatar drank with Yang Song in Jade Tripod Sect. Their personalities matched rather well.

As for inside Green Touring Palace.

Qin Yun was also slowly trading away the White Jade Token spots! He wished to use this opportunity to gather enough Connate Wonders to mix with the Chaos Pure Gold, so that he could nurture his Intrinsic Flying Sword to the Connate Numinous treasure level. With a sword of that level, he would even have the confidence to fight Fiercefire head on.
