C849 There Was a Reason for It

When Dugu Wendao looked around again, he saw people not far away. His eyes were filled with strangers, not a single one of his subordinates could be seen. He couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart as he angrily glared at the Daoist Priest. He said hatefully, "Old Daoist mixed fur, what did you do to my people?"

The Daoist Priest of Virtue smiled calmly and said, "Kid, don't worry. No matter how vicious and merciless I am, I will not harm many of these people for no reason. Today, it will not be difficult for me to take your lackeys away for you!"

Dugu Wendao hesitated for a moment, then said with hatred, "Old Daoist mixed fur, you have thought it through. Today, you let me go. If you fall into my hands in the future, I will never let you go!"

The Daoist Priest of Dao and Virtue smiled calmly and said, "Everyone will say harsh words. As for who won't let go, we will talk about it next time we meet. Do as you wish!"

Staring fiercely at the Daoist Priest of Dao and Virtue, Dugu Wendao was extremely unwilling to drag his saber and hobbled away.

Seeing Dugu Wendao leave, Du Qi's heart did not relax. Instead, it tightened even more. He knew that Daoist Priest of Virtue wouldn't save him for no reason. He also knew what Daoist Priest of Virtue wanted. Could he satisfy the Daoist Priest of Virtue's request? However, his life was saved by the Daoist Priest of Virtue from Dugu Wendao's blade, and he had no choice but to repay the kindness of saving his life! Du Qi endured the pain and turned around to greet, "Thank you Daoist Priest for saving my life!"

Daoist Priest of Dao and Virtue sneered. "It's just a small matter, what's the point of mentioning it? Little friend, don't mention it again! "

Du Qi said, "Since that's the case, please allow me to take my leave!"

The Daoist Priest said, "Little friend, don't be too busy. I came to find you today to discuss a deal with you."

Du Qi had no choice but to stop and face Daoist Priest of Virtue. He smiled bitterly and said, "Daoist Priest, do you want me to follow you?"

Daoist Priest of Dao and Virtue said with a solemn expression, "Little friend, you are born with an unyielding character. You would rather lose your life than bow your head to others. No matter how tactful this humble Daoist is, I will not dare to make it difficult for you."

Du Qi said with puzzlement, "What Daoist means is..."

Daoist Priest of Dao and Virtue looked at Du Qi and asked instead of answering, "Little friend, can you walk now?"

Du Qi smiled bitterly and said, "Let's give it a try!"

Daoist Priest of Dao and Virtue smiled and said, "Little friend, you clearly still have some strength left, but you are not willing to say it clearly. He wants to push back half the way, ha..." Before he could laugh, the Daoist Priest of Virtue suddenly fixed his gaze on Jiaojiao, who was still lying at the side. A look of pleasant surprise appeared on his face.

Under Daoist Priest of Virtue's gaze, Jiaojiao suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. She hurriedly endured the pain and jumped into Du Qi's left sleeve. When she wrapped around Du Qi's left forearm, she still felt a wave of uneasiness and panic.

Following Jiaojiao's figure, Daoist Priest of Virtue's eyes fell upon Du Qi. Ripples appeared on his calm face again. He said with a smile, "I didn't expect it. I really found it by stepping on iron shoes and searching everywhere. I didn't even waste my time to find it. Ha! Let's talk in another place. Little friend, please!"

Under the gaze of the Daoist Priest of Virtue, Du Qi suddenly had a feeling that he was naked. It made him feel very uncomfortable. He knew that in front of the Daoist Priest of Virtue... He had no strength to resist, not to mention that the Daoist Priest had just saved his life. It was inconvenient for Du Qi to go against his wishes, but he really did not want to deal with the Daoist Priest of Virtue. Seeing the Daoist Priest of Virtue invite him to travel with him, he was a bit hesitant. Seemingly seeing through Du Qi's intentions, the Daoist Priest of Dao and Virtue said with a smile, "Little friend, please rest assured. I just want to find a more secretive place to talk. I have no other intentions!"

Du Qi did not know what kind of deal Daoist Priest De wanted to discuss with him. It was likely that this matter would be very confidential and would not be allowed to be known by others. This place was indeed not the place to talk, so he said, "Daoist, please!"

Master Dao and Virtue did not speak anymore. He just waved his hand, and a figure flashed in front of him. Several figures dressed in brown disappeared into the forest. The Daoist Priest of Virtue then slowly walked towards that direction, while Du Qi followed closely behind him. Not far behind them were dozens of men dressed in black. They must be experts under Daoist Priest of Dao.

They were looking for a path in the mountains, and there were people watching and peeping everywhere. Daoist Priest of Virtue ignored them as if no one was there. It was not until the sky turned dark that they arrived in front of a cave.

Du Qi had already seen more than ten strong men standing in front of the cave. He took a look in front of them. Those men were simple and twelve Silver Immortals. They were waiting for Daoist Priest of Virtue to arrive. Simple then bowed and said, "Daoist Priest, the cave has been cleaned up. It's very quiet. Daoist Priest, please come in!"

Daoist Priest of Morals and Virtue said, "Thank you for your hard work!" After saying this, he turned around and said to Du Qi," Little friend, please come in! "

As he spoke, Daoist Priest of Virtue actually made an inviting gesture. He gestured for Du Qi to enter the cave, but before Du Qi could react, the Daoist Priest of Virtue took the lead and entered the cave. Seemingly having sensed that Du Qi was following behind him, the Daoist Priest of Virtue introduced, "This is Aunt Ma Cave, the cave abode of the daughter of Zhao Maqiu after East Jin. It is also the Immortal estate of Daoist Huang Long, one of the twelve Golden Immortals under Heavenly Worthy of the Primordial Beginning. Usually, there are people who come to pay their respects. But at this moment, there is no third person besides us in the cave. Therefore... We can talk freely here!"

Du Qi couldn't find any words to respond to Daoist Priest of Virtue, so he could only move forward with his head lowered. Although there were no candles or other lighting objects in the cave, a faint green light was emitted from somewhere. Although it was dark, it was not dark. Even normal people could move around here as usual. Du Qi had night vision early on, so his movements were naturally not affected at all.

Entering a spacious room with stone stools and stone tables, Daoist Priest of Virtue turned around and said, "Let's talk here. Little friend, please take a seat!"

At this moment, Du Qi could only politely say, "Daoist, please!"

Seeing Daoist Priest of Virtue take a seat at the host's seat, Du Qi took a seat at the guest's seat. He calmed his mind and asked, "Daoist, why are you so serious? What do you want to talk about?"

Perfected One chuckled and said, "Little friend, you are a straightforward person. This humble Daoist is very happy! Before talking about proper business, this humble Daoist must say a few words that are beyond the subject."

Du Qi could not say much, and only said, "Daoist, please speak!"

Daoist Priest of Dao and Virtue said, "This matter does not matter if little friend agrees or not, this humble Daoist will definitely not make things difficult for little friend. Therefore, little friend, please do not feel troubled and force yourself to agree. If you don't agree, my only request is that you don't tell anyone else about this matter. You're a man of your word. You'll do what you say."

Du Qi swore an oath. "Of course!"

Daoist Priest of Virtue said with satisfaction, "Actually, our deal is very simple. We need to ask you to help me with something. Of course, in return, I would also do something for little friend. This should be a fair deal. I believe you won't refuse! "

Considering the matter that not even the Daoist Priest of Virtue could do, it would definitely be a very difficult matter. What the Daoist Priest of Virtue wanted to do was definitely not a good thing! What could he do to exchange with it? Du Qi originally wanted to immediately refuse, but he could not hide his curiosity for a moment. He said in a low voice, "Please elaborate!"

Daoist Priest of Dao and Virtue let out a sigh of relief and said, "This humble Daoist is looking for little friend. I wish to ask little friend to help refine a weapon."
