As for whether it was a joke or not, both parties have their own perceptions and understandings.
In terms of strength, although Zhao Mu has not reached the level of Titled Douluo, it still has extraordinary combat power and has enough strength to protect itself. If nothing else, with just one Void skill, Zhao Mu is enough to face any Titled Douluo undefeated. There have been examples of this.
This is also the reason why Zhao Mu dares to "spout nonsense" in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
In the past, Zhao Mu might still need Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's help, but now, it is not needed at all.
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's strength is not needed by Zhao Mu. Others' strength is not as important as one's own, and Zhao Mu's next step is to develop Zhao Family.
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's financial resources, Zhao Mu, are not needed now. He is a money printing machine, so he still needs Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to save himself that little Soul Power?
So there is no need to beg for nothing to establish a relationship with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and help Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect like a holy mother.
Of course, it is not impossible to help. As long as you are willing to submit, Zhao Mu is still very generous to your own people.
"I wonder if Sect Master Ning is willing to do it with me regarding the sale of this batch of materials?"
Zhao Mu brought the topic back to these metal materials.
Ning Fengzhi put a smile on his face again, as if the unpleasantness and misunderstanding just now had never happened.
"Since Mr. Zhao Mu is interested, we at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect are naturally willing to do this business with Mr. Zhao Mu. Of course, we are also willing to give Mr. Zhao Mu a 20% discount on the market price."
20% off may not seem like much, but if you put it on these metal materials, it can be considered a huge sum of money.
However, for Zhao Mu who is not short of money at the moment, there is absolutely no need to owe Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect a favor for this little money.
"No need, Sect Master Ning, we appreciate your kindness, let's just follow the market price! Whatever it is, that's what it is!"
Seeing Zhao Mu's somewhat cold refusal and unwillingness to accept the favor, Ning Fengzhi didn't say anything more and just said:
"If there is an opportunity, we would still be happy to do business with Mr. Zhao Mu."
"Yes." Zhao Mu replied in a neutral tone.
Hearing this, the smile on Ning Fengzhi's face became a little brighter. In his opinion, this meant that he would have the opportunity to talk to Zhao Mu about Support System Soul Master's method of gaining combat effectiveness in the future.
But in the meaning of Zhao Mu, rare metal materials need to be purchased from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect in the future.
If nothing unexpected happens, according to Zhao Mu's speculation, he should be able to condense seven weapons, and Jiuli Yaotian Flag is just one of them. Each of the subsequent weapons will probably require a lot of precious metal materials, so naturally he needs to seek convenience from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
So Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect actually plays the role of supplier.
After the negotiation was completed, the money was left, and Zhao Mu took the batch of metal materials and left Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect with Dugu Bo and Zhao Wuji.
Watching Zhao Mu and the other two people leave, Ning Fengzhi, who was standing at the top of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect fortress, had a complicated look on his face.
Naturally, he would not think that it was a joke by Zhao Mu. Although he had only met Zhao Mu twice, Ning Fengzhi did not think that the other party was talking nonsense and could not see the situation clearly.
This seemingly absurd request to make Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect surrender is actually the bottom line condition for Zhao Mu to get on the bus with Ning Fengzhi.
But Ning Fengzhi chose to refuse. The problem is that it is impossible for him to agree to this condition.
Even Ning Fengzhi was thinking, if he had given this batch of raw materials to Zhao Mu for free some time ago, would he be able to get on the bus?
If it is as predicted by Ning Fengzhi, then the price of Zhao Mu has risen really fast.
But what makes Ning Fengzhi equally curious is, how did Zhao Mu have the courage to say such a thing? Isn't he afraid of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's attack? And where does he have the confidence?
Dugu Bo? Or Zhao Wuji?
These two people cannot be the opponents of Sword Uncle and Bone Uncle.
"Sword Uncle, what do you think?"
Ning Fengzhi asked Sword Douluo on the side.
Sword Douluo's eyes were blazing, and then he said, "That boy is very weird..."
Just when the two sides were confronting each other, Sword Douluo actually felt a sense of crisis from Zhao Mu, a stronger sense of crisis than before when they met.
So much so that Sword Douluo has an even more absurd idea. Maybe Zhao Mu's confidence does not come from Dugu Bo and Zhao Wuji, but from itself.
Bone Douluo, who had not spoken a word, also had this feeling, but it was not as strong as Sword Douluo.
"I thought it was a hidden dragon before, but I didn't expect it to emerge from the abyss so early..."
Ning Fengzhi is even thinking, will I regret it in the future because of my hesitation at this moment...
The other side.
Get the metal raw materials and on the way out of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Dugu Bo finally couldn't help but said, "Second brother, you are so brave. You dare to make a joke like asking Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to surrender, but that's Upper Three Sects!"
"That means Ning Fengzhi didn't take it seriously in the end, otherwise we might have a hard time..."
Zhao Mu didn't say much, just turned his head and glanced at Dugu Bo.
The moment Zhao Mu's eyes met, Dugu Bo seemed to understand something.
"No, second brother, don't tell me you weren't joking just now, you really want Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to surrender!"
In response, Zhao Mu finally responded, "Brother, I don't necessarily want Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to surrender. Of course, it would be better if I could get help from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. If I don't get it, I won't lose anything. It's just the icing on the cake."
"Second brother, that is Upper Three Sects! Clear Sky Sect cannot escape from the world, and Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon has always maintained a neutral position. Only Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is tied to the Heaven Dou Empire, and its development momentum is even stronger. If this continues, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect seems to have the momentum to become the number one sect in the mainland."
Zhao Mu smiled, "It is still the number one sect in the mainland, and it may be destroyed at some point..."
"Destroy Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, are you kidding?!" Dugu Bo heard this, and the more he listened, the more he felt that what Zhao Mu said was unreliable.
Moreover, Ning Fengzhi himself is not simple. In addition to his average strength, his scheming and strategies are also good. He is a character.
The original author Tang Hao also commented that Ning Fengzhi is not simple, but for Zhao Mu, the impression is not very good.
I want to win over myself, but I am hesitant and have no courage at all.
"Brother, although you are not very strong, you are much more discerning than Qibao Ning Fengzhi!"
They also want to win over Zhao Mu. Compared to Ning Fengzhi's hesitation, Dugu Bo is indeed much more decisive.
Moreover, in order to win over himself, Dugu Bo not only wanted to bring himself and Dugu Yan together, but also directly changed his identity and became a sworn sworn brother with him. This courage surpassed Ning Fengzhi by a dozen.
Perhaps this is also different from the positions the two of them are in. Dugu Bo is alone, but Ning Fengzhi is the head of a sect, so there are naturally more considerations.
But is this really the reason?
There are not many people who conquer the world who put down their dignity and respect the virtuous corporal.
At least in Zhao Mu's opinion, Ning Fengzhi is not good enough, Dugu Bo can be called his own angel investor.
If Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect wants to submit to himself again in the future, it won't be at today's price...
"Hey, what do you mean I'm not strong enough?! If you want to praise me, then praise me well!"
Returning to Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Zhao Mu took out all the rare metal raw materials filled with Soul Tool.
But Zhao Mu was not in a hurry to start condensing Jiuli Yaotian Flag.
Long-term experience makes Zhao Mu not to get started rashly, but to calm down and adjust his own condition to the best before trying to refine it.
Because you can't be sure if something unexpected will happen.
"Second brother, what do you want to get so many metal materials from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?" Because Zhao Mu never said anything, Dugu Bo didn't know. They only knew that Zhao Mu and Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect were planning a batch of metal raw materials, but they didn't expect the quantity to be so large.
Dugu Bo doesn't even know, and Zhao Wuji naturally doesn't know either.
"Of course it's about refining weapons."
For the two of them, Zhao Mu naturally had nothing to hide.
"Refining weapons? Second brother, do you still have this ability?"
Of course, Zhao Wuji was as shocked as Dugu Bo. Zhao Wuji didn't expect that Zhao Mu was actually an all-rounder.
The two of them just feel that Zhao Mu itself is like a bottomless pit. Whenever you feel you understand the other person, the other party will reveal something new to you.
"But with so many metal materials, how many weapons do you need to refine? Second brother, given your talent, you should focus on cultivation. Don't let other things distract you." Zhao Mu was afraid that Zhao Mu would waste his cultivation because of refining weapons, Dugu Bo couldn't help but remind him.
Zhao Wuji nodded in agreement.
Zhao Mu naturally knows the good intentions of the two people. "Don't worry, I will only refine one weapon this time!"
"One? One is fine." Halfway through, Dugu Bo suddenly reacted. "Wait a minute, second brother, are you going to use so many materials to refine a weapon?"
Looking at the mountains of precious metal materials, not to mention a handful, there is no pressure to refine hundreds of weapons.
Zhao Mu shook his head slightly. "Not only these materials, but also this."
With that said, Zhao Mu took out the body of Xiao Wu from Soul Tool.
With a pile of precious metal materials and the body of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, Dugu Bo couldn't imagine what kind of weapon Zhao Mu was trying to refine.
With all their doubts, Dugu Bo and Zhao Wuji did not bother Zhao Mu to adjust the status, but waited curiously to see what tricks Zhao Mu would do to them.
After about half an hour, Zhao Mu's whole body was full of Soul Power, and every time he breathed in, all the cells in his body were filled with extremely high vitality.
Slowly withdrawing from the practice, Zhao Mu stood up and came to the pile of metal materials and Xiao Wu's body.
The original Xiao Wu made the scabbard of Asura Demon Sword, and in this life it will become the material of Jiuli Yaotian Flag. It seems that the rabbit can never escape the fate of sacrificial weapons.
"Mu'er, do you need our help?" Zhao Wuji asked Zhao Mu.
