Feng Jun frowned at Black Luan's answer and was about to speak when Huangfu Wuxia beat him to it. "Pardon my impertinence, Seniors, but I have one question... Does the Red Phoenix Sect intend to simply take the Boiler Engine manufacturing technology?"
"Why not?" Black Luan retorted righteously. "If it were a method of artifact refinement, then of course it would need to be purchased. But this is a mundane item sold to mortals. Is there any need to keep its technology secret? My Red Phoenix Sect will owe you a favor!"
The Phone Plane's awareness of patent protection really was terrible!
Feng Jun was somewhat displeased, but he still explained patiently. "Fellow Cultivator Black Luan, that is not how you should put it. My original intention in introducing the Boiler Engine was indeed for mortals to use it, but Fellow Cultivator Luo sought it for Thunder Cultivator training..."
He asked meaningfully, "If you say that this does not count as something used by cultivators, would that not be somewhat inappropriate?"
Black Luan curled her lips and answered dismissively, "Thunder Cultivators being able to use this object was a discovery made by the Thunder Plains cultivators. If you had sold it to the Thunder Plains from the start and stated that it could assist Thunder Cultivator training, then naturally it would count as something for cultivation."
That was somewhat unreasonable, but it was not entirely without basis. After all, it was the Thunder Cultivators who had discovered the Boiler Engine's new use.
But Huangfu Wuxia could not stand it anymore. Was Black Luan not saying that Tiantong had mishandled the sales?
So she cleared her throat lightly. "Excuse me, let me presumptuously add one more thing. We noticed from the very beginning that Thunder Cultivators could..."
"Shut up." Black Luan
