Chapter 1040: Chapter 1043: The Deal with Yun Menghan

Hearing Qin Tian’s words, Yun Menghan was momentarily stunned.

A flash of surprise crossed her face, then her expression gradually calmed down. She stared at Qin Tian, returning to a nonchalant demeanor, and said calmly, ”Nothing, I didn’t notice anything unusual. You’re overthinking it.”

”Really?”

Yun Menghan’s expression changed so quickly that Qin Tian remained skeptical despite her words.

”Otherwise? Do you think you have some kind of cultivation immortality talent? Even if you did, you wouldn’t still be at the Qi Refining Early Stage in your twenties, right?”

Yun Menghan glared at Qin Tian, blinking her eyes.

Qin Tian pouted, thinking maybe Yun Menghan had a point.

”Then... Miss Yun, no matter what, I’m already here today. If you don’t help me improve my cultivation, I won’t leave.”

Qin Tian thought, since he couldn’t figure out his cultivation talent on his own, now that Yun Menghan had softened up, he might as well gain some benefits from her.

After all, having learned the background of Shangguan Zhenxiong’s backer, the Spiritual Cloud Sect, Qin Tian could only cling to Yun Menghan like a big tree.

Luckily, Yun Menghan didn’t seem to hold any prejudices against him.

”Haha, are you really that shameless? Planning to cling on and not leave?”

Upon hearing Qin Tian’s persistent tactics, Yun Menghan laughed, ”You think threatening me will make me help you?”

Hearing Yun Menghan’s words, Qin Tian wasn’t disheartened; instead, he became delighted.

Yun Menghan was indicating that she had the ability to help him!

”I’m not threatening you. I just think your place is nice, and since I’m currently homeless, wouldn’t it be great to stay here for a while?”

Qin Tian grinned at Yun Menghan, ”Miss Yun, no matter what, the Spiritual Cloud Sect is so strong, and I can’t do anything right now, so I can only rely on you. If you don’t help me, I’m doomed; at least here I can find a shelter to survive, don’t you think?”

Seeing Qin Tian rambling, Yun Menghan could only glare at him speechlessly.

Beside them, Xiao Chan was dissatisfied, ”Qin Tian, how can you be so shameless! This is our territory, and we won’t let you stay here. Get going!”

”Who said Broken Cliff is yours? Do you have property certificates? Do you have land deeds? If so, show them. If not, don’t talk nonsense.”

Anyway, since he already looked like a rascal in their eyes, he might as well go all out.

”You, you... you’re just a Qi Refining Early Stage immortality cultivator daring to act wild in front of our lady, looking for trouble! I’ll beat you up into a panda!”

Xiao Chan was so angry, she put her hands on her hips, and was about to pounce on Qin Tian.

Yun Menghan rolled her eyes and waved her hand, signaling Xiao Chan to stop talking, then gazed at Qin Tian with a meaningful look, ”Qin Tian, your rogue and shameless character is really detestable. Did I say I wouldn’t help you? Did I say I wouldn’t let you stay here?”

”Oh? Hehe, Miss Yun means, you’re willing to help me then?”

”I can, but there’s no free lunch in this world.”

”Oh, there are conditions? Okay, okay, Miss Yun, feel free to state them. Whether you want money or... something else, I’m all in today, hehe.”

”Something else... who would even want you! You’re like a toad wanting to eat swan meat!”

Qin Tian’s casual chatter made Xiao Chan nearby unable to stand it, puffing her cheeks in displeasure.

However, Yun Menghan didn’t react as intensely as Xiao Chan; instead, she thought about it and smiled faintly, ”Qin Tian, stop being slick-tongued. I do have a condition, but for you, it’s quite simple.”

”Oh, what do you want?”

”A tube of blood. I just want a tube of your blood.”

”What!?”

Hearing Yun Menghan’s request, Qin Tian was dumbfounded.

A tube of blood? What is Yun Menghan planning to do?

Qin Tian found it quite intriguing. Although Yun Menghan’s request wasn’t high, he felt there might be some unspeakable secret hidden in her simple request.

”Why are you staring at me like that? I’ve stated my condition. Agree or not, it’s up to you.”

Seeing Qin Tian staring wide-eyed at her, Yun Menghan finally blushed a little, turned her head away, and, unsure if due to guilt or embarrassment, lowered her head.

”Ahem, let me clarify, how much is a tube of blood exactly?” Qin Tian thought it over and figured this deal could be made.

”Just a tube of blood you’d give for a routine hospital check-up.”

”That I can do.” Qin Tian agreed without hesitation, then continued, ”Since I’m giving a tube of blood, Miss Yun, what can you do for me in return?”

”I can help you release the True Qi trapped within your body, allowing you to gain strength in a short time.”

”Oh? So, my body still has hidden True Qi?”

”Hmm, you drained a spirit tree’s True Qi last time, and do you think, with your limited potential, you could fully refine it all in such a short time?”

With Yun Menghan questioning him like this, Qin Tian was indeed a bit dumbfounded.

He felt like he’d refined and absorbed all the True Qi within him, but maybe that was just what his body made him feel. Bodies can be deceptive, and since Yun Menghan’s cultivation level was higher than his, she could potentially spot the issues in his cultivation.

Qin Tian thought for a moment and asked, ”If you help me fully refine and absorb the True Qi in my body, can my cultivation level advance from Qi Refining Early Stage to Qi Refining Middle Stage?”

”That I don’t know. Maybe it will, maybe it won’t. It depends on your body’s ability to absorb True Qi.”

After speaking, Yun Menghan glanced at Qin Tian, urging him slightly, ”So, do you agree or not? Give me a decision now.”

”Uh... let me think about it. I feel like your condition isn’t as simple as it seems...”

”Tch, do you think I want to do something to you? I just think that not detecting your cultivation immortality talent is a failure on my part. I want your blood to continue trying. I don’t like the word ’failure,’ understand?”

”Oh, I see...”

Seeing Yun Menghan’s earnest expression, Qin Tian gazed at her intently, trying to discern from her eyes whether she was telling the truth or not.

But with everything laid out on the table and no other options, Qin Tian had no choice.

”Just a tube of blood, right? Fine, I agree. Miss Yun, I trust you, so you better hold up your end!”

Qin Tian waved his hand grandly, agreeing to the exchange with Yun Menghan.

Yun Menghan seemed to have successfully carried out her plan, giving a faint, satisfied smile:

”Alright then, it’s a deal. Tonight you’ll stay at the foot of Broken Cliff, and tomorrow morning, you come to me, and I’ll teach you the specific method to refine the True Qi.”
