I Have A Dual World Seal-Chapter 652: The Generous Yi Qingtian

Just moments ago in the intense battle, it was hard not to get distracted. Now, looking at Lu Zheng and Shen Ying, Yi Qingtian was extremely shocked and incredulous. He truly hadn't expected that with the help of these two, they actually managed to hold back the Black Heart Demon.

You must know, this Black Heart Demon is one of the four major disciples of the Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor, a top demon with a solid millennium of Dao Practice!

This time it was he who plotted against me, but even if it were a fair one-on-one, defeating him wouldn't be difficult, yet hoping to hold him down would be impossible.

And these two before me, they unequivocally appear to be young cultivators. Yi Qingtian asked himself if he was blind, but Lu Zheng and Shen Ying were full of youthful vitality, their eyes alight, definitely not ancient beings disguised as youths.

Yet with the help of these two, the Black Heart Demon couldn't even escape, his body was worn away with demonic Qi, leaving him utterly destroyed.

This is very unreasonable. I've only been away for a few years, and the young generation has become this powerful?

Suppressing his shock, Yi Qingtian cupped his hands in thanks, pointing to a cave on the mountainside, saying, "If you don't mind, please step into my humble abode, let Yi Mou offer you some tea."

Lu Zheng and Shen Ying returned the gesture repeatedly.

Lu Zheng said with a smile, "Yi Yingwang is too courteous. I have a master-disciple relationship with Hu Zhou and friendship with Brother Hu Yijun of Dingfeng Mountain. Yi Yingwang being taken advantage of by a demon, how could I not help?"

Yi Qingtian's eyes lit up, "So it's Young Master Lu of White Cloud Temple. Hu Zhou mentioned you, truly meeting you is better than hearing of you—Young Master Lu is truly a genius born once in a generation!"

Then he looked at Shen Ying, and Yi Qingtian cupped his hands and said, "This must be Madam Shen, the Peach Blossom Fairy. Yi Mou greets you."

Shen Ying bowed in return, "Greetings, Yi Yingwang."

"Please, both of you, this way!" Yi Qingtian laughed heartily, gesturing with a hand, then led the way to his cave abode.

...

The cave abode wasn't large, only a few stone chambers. Yi Qingtian led Lu Zheng and Shen Ying to sit in the hall, brewed a pot of Spirit Tea, and filled their cups.

In no time, the aroma of tea filled the room.

Lu Zheng took a deep breath and praised, "Good tea!"

He had drunk quite a bit of tea in the Great Jing Dynasty, drank spirit tea at White Cloud Temple, tasted Southern Border spirit tea, but none had this fragrance.

Yi Qingtian chuckled, "This is spirit tea from a few old tea trees halfway up Qingqi Mountain. The trees have been buffeted by fierce winds for years, the spirit of the tea is as airy as the wind, a local specialty indeed."

"The spirit is airy indeed, a truly good tea!" Lu Zheng nodded.

A sip of the hot tea went down, the Qi within wafting like the wind, seeping into every part of his body, refreshing and clearing his mind. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Seeing Lu Zheng and Shen Ying enjoying themselves, Yi Qingtian's eyes reflected satisfaction. He smiled and poured them each another cup.

"Thank you, Yi Yingwang," Lu Zheng expressed his thanks.

Yi Qingtian waved a hand, his eyes gleaming as he casually said, "No need for such politeness. You're Hu Zhou's master and brother to Brother Hu. If you don't mind that I just embarrassed myself, you can call me Brother Yi."

Lu Zheng was stunned by the words, exchanged a glance with Shen Ying, smiled, nodded, then the two together cupped their hands towards Yi Qingtian, "Greetings, Brother Yi!"

"Good, good!" Yi Qingtian laughed joyously, "Younger Brother Lu, and the young mistress!"

The three raised their cups and drank, Lu Zheng exhaled a long breath and couldn't help but ask, "Brother Yi, do you live here alone?"

Yi Qingtian nodded, "Just myself, with two disciples, but they're not always around, only coming back every few years."

Lu Zheng understood, it seemed Yi Qingtian was someone who was accustomed to being solitary.

They chatted casually, mentioning Hu Zhou's wedding, and Lu Zheng remarked that he hadn't seen Yi Qingtian then.

"I was flying north to engage in magical combat with an eagle, and then had a round trip to the East Sea to eat some fish, so I didn't see the people coming from Dingfeng Mountain with the invitation. When I returned, the wedding had already ended."

Yi Qingtian said, "Later, I made up for it with a gift, and Brother Hu was courteous enough to have Hu Zhou specially deliver a message."

"So that's it."

Lu Zheng nodded knowingly, it was indeed an exchange of courtesies. No wonder Hu Yijun had Hu Zhou delivering messages when he could have done it faster himself.

They talked some more about the wedding, Master Qingyang, and Monkey King Du Sheng, until Yi Qingtian finally set down his cup, getting to the point.

"Younger Brother Lu, what brings you to Qingqi Mountain?" Yi Qingtian asked, "If there's anything you need from your elder brother, just say it."

Yi Qingtian wasn't foolish. Before joining forces against the enemy, they were still strangers. Even if Lu Zheng and Shen Ying were traveling, they wouldn't come to Qingqi Mountain without a purpose. So, their ascent must have been for something.

Yet, after the recent events, Yi Qingtian considered that they were now comrades-in-arms, bound by life and death.

Having received such life-saving grace, naturally, he felt compelled to offer proactively.

Yi Qingtian was straightforward, and Lu Zheng wasn't one to stand on ceremony.

"We actually have a request this time up the mountain," Lu Zheng said.

"Go ahead," Yi Qingtian said earnestly.

Lu Zheng said, "I wish to obtain some Jade Fall Cyan Mist to refine a sword!"

Yi Qingtian nodded, "Hmm!"

After a moment, Lu Zheng and Yi Qingtian stared at each other without speaking.

Lu Zheng waited half a day, seeing Yi Qingtian not speaking, he felt a bit unsure, wondering if Jade Fall Cyan Mist was that precious that even with their relationship, he couldn't obtain a bit?

On the other side, Yi Qingtian waited half a day, seeing Lu Zheng not speaking, he blinked in confusion and asked, "Anything else?"

Lu Zheng looked baffled, "Huh? There's nothing else?"

"What?" Yi Qingtian, equally baffled, said dazedly, "That's it?"

Lu Zheng was speechless, was Yi Qingtian thinking the request was too simple?

"This is quite a challenge," Lu Zheng said with a bitter smile, "The Sword Qi and Radiance from Feiyu Mountain isn't even sufficient for them. Besides, the Golden Summit Radiance, Seven Illusion Flying Radiants, Ganlu Radiance, and Nine Bends Radiance are all claimed.

So, I heard there's Jade Fall Cyan Mist at Qingqi Mountain. I also heard Brother Yi's name from Hu Zhou, thus I shamelessly came up the mountain hoping to obtain some radiance for sword refining."

"Feiyu Mountain? Younger Brother Lu, do you also practice Feiyu Mountain's Sword Technique?" Yi Qingtian asked curiously.

Lu Zheng nodded, tapped his gourd, and five Red Jade Swords flew out, "These were my previous flying swords, now they are no longer usable. Thus, I went to Feiyu Mountain to seek the Sword Refining Technique and learned of the Technique of Dawn Sword Refining."

Yi Qingtian immediately recognized the material of the Red Jade Swords and nodded, "No wonder Younger Brother Lu didn't use sword techniques just now."

Yi Qingtian's eyes flashed, and he asked Lu Zheng with a smile, "Younger Brother Lu, if you only seek radiance, does that mean you have the spiritual materials for refining swords already?"

Lu Zheng smiled and nodded, "Exactly, I already exchanged for some materials at the temple, enough to forge a flying sword."

Yi Qingtian chuckled and asked, "May I take a look?"

"Of course!" Lu Zheng nodded, then took out three pieces of materials he exchanged from White Cloud Temple and laid them out.

To be honest, Yi Qingtian asking to see Lu Zheng's materials was a bit presumptuous. Lu Zheng didn't know what Yi Qingtian was up to, but since he requested, Lu Zheng had no reason not to show him.

"Cloud Pattern Iron, Flowing Light Refined Gold, and Discontinuous Spirit Gold—indeed good materials for refining swords," Yi Qingtian nodded, "But Feiyu Mountain's path is the Flying Sword Dao, not condensing Sword Pills. Younger Brother Lu used five Red Jade Swords, so why forge just one new flying sword?"

Lu Zheng suddenly looked up.

Yi Qingtian grinned, swept his hand over the table, and a large piece of Cloud Pattern Iron, a large piece of Flowing Light Refined Gold, and a large piece of Discontinuous Spirit Gold appeared on the table.

"I have some unused materials here gathering dust. Just enough to complete nine, for good luck."
