Chapter 630: Song Meeting
Sage was pleased to see Song Lu Tian was at the meeting along with six others. He recognized Elder Meng and Elder Zhong, but Song Lu Tian took the opportunity to introduce him. It took him only a few seconds to realize they were all Elders of the Mount Song Sword Sect.
Ive been told you were instrumental in helping Brother Twelve to advance?
The woman introduced as the 4th Elder was the one speaking and she seemed to be examining Sage quite carefully.
Is there something on my face?
Sage bowed to her, It was nothing much on my part. Brother Songs talent is the real cause for his meteoric rise.
Meeting these Elders for the first time, there were plenty of platitudes and compliments passed back and forth before they could finally get to the business at hand.
Has something gone wrong with the acceptance of the Tiankong Clan as our allies? Have we overlooked something?
Sage was not deterred by the slim and graceful man that was speaking. He saluted the man, I can understand your trepidation, Ninth Elder. There are certainly risks involved. It is hard to know how often the Pool of Eternal Tears can be used, and also who is qualified to use it. Icefire Valley is some distance from the Mount Song Sword Sect and it will require many resources to defend it. These are all problems, but there is still another benefit. The poison miasma is powered by a Spirit Vein, a Spirit Vein of quite high quality, and I noticed signs that it is quite likely to have a Spirit Stone Lode.
Spirit Stone Lode!
All of the Elders perked up. Spirit Stones were not only Qi batteries, they were also the main form of currency for Cultivators. A Spirit Stone Lode was just like a gold mine, and only fools wouldnt be interested in having one. It was literally just pulling money out of the ground. Sage sensed more voice transmissions going back and forth and many of the Elders' excitement seemed to dampen.
That is surprising news, but it also makes Icefire Valley even more valuable. We would need to guard not one, but two important sites. We dont even know if there is a Spirit Stone Lode, let alone what grade it might be. If it's of the lowest grade, it might not even make up for the investment we will have to make to maintain our control over the Pool of Eternal Tears. While we might benefit, we will also be inciting a war over benefits. Why should we invite trouble from others for uncertain rewards?
The 9th Elder continued to take the lead in the attempt to refuse this change, and he continued before Sage could offer another rebuttal, Youve also neglected to add another detail. What will you be charging us for this favor? You certainly dont seem the type to be doing things out of kindness.
Sage didnt respond to the rude undertone he sensed from the 9th Elder, and instead smiled brightly, Youre right! For my efforts, Ill be expecting a cut of the Spirit Stone Lode. Three parts out of ten should do nicely. As for the Pool of Eternal Tears, Id like to reserve the first two uses for my two betrothed, and also a portion every year in the future for my descendants.
Even Song Lu Tian seemed a little taken aback by his demands, but the 9th Elder was furious, So, youre going to make our lives more difficult and then charge us for the service? What sort of fools do you take us for?
Hahaha! Fools? I would never do such a thing. Youre my friends! Im going to remove the poison miasma, and Ive come to my friends to offer them the best deal. If you dont wish to be my partner for this, Im sure there are plenty of others who would love to take your place. Im sure the Mountain Heart Sect from Hei Mountain Province, or the Jia Clan from Righteous Wind Province would be happy to enjoy this opportunity. I can start mining Spirit Stones by myself, but I feel that will take too much time, so Id rather share with my friends.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
