Opening the Trade Route to the Snow Region

"You cheated! You cheated!" Leng Qingfeng pointed angrily at Zhang Yang, roaring in frustration, "We agreed not to use Spirit Artifact, but you actually used Spirit Artifact! You're utterly despicable, you have no bottom line!"

Zhang Yang snapped out of his daze and asked in a daze, "You were attacking my Divine Soul just now? Didn't you see I had the Soul-Suppressing Banner?"

He was indeed completely absorbed in Leng Qingfeng's terrifying aura, because he was in the Nascent Soul Realm, not the Primordial Spirit Realm.

When faced with the suppression of intent from a Primordial Spirit Realm, he was utterly powerless to resist.

However, the last thing Leng Qingfeng should have done was attack the Divine Soul.

Although Zhang Yang promised not to use the Soul-Suppressing Banner, his Divine Soul was still protected by Soul-Suppressing Banner.

If someone were to attack his Divine Soul, it would be like throwing himself into a knife; he would surely meet a terrible end!

Leng Qingfeng took out some pills and took them to recover from his injuries. At the same time, he glared fiercely at Zhang Yang, his face full of resentment.

Zhang Yang smiled helplessly, "I really didn't use Spirit Artifact... You just ran into Spirit Artifact yourself! I admit, your move was terrifying! But if you think you can beat me with that one move, it's a bit risky!"

He also has a move like the Ghost God's Sigh or god, which can be used to counter this.

Leng Qingfeng snorted coldly, not believing it at all.

In his view, he lost because of the Spirit Artifact.

He was deeply resentful; how could one person possess so many Spirit Artifacts?

Zhang Yang did not disturb Leng Qingfeng and waited for Leng Qingfeng to heal his injuries.

Running headfirst into the Soul-Suppressing Banner must feel incredibly unpleasant.

The damage to the Primordial Spirit Realm, especially the Primordial Spirit, is quite troublesome to recover from.

Especially the pills for restoring one's Primordial Spirit are quite precious, which is what makes Leng Qingfeng unwilling to accept defeat.

After a long while, Leng Qingfeng's injuries had eased slightly, and he stood up and said fiercely, "I'm never competing with you again. It's pointless."

Zhang Yang was speechless and said, "You, a dignified Nascent Primordial Spirit Realm, are trying to use your Primordial Spirit power to fight against me, Nascent Soul Realm? Is that really interesting?"

"How about I find Foundation Establishment Disciple to have a match with you, and you win decisively?"

"Hmph!" Leng Qingfeng sneered, "Do you know how much Spirit-Nurturing Pill costs? You owe me one Spirit-Nurturing Pill!"

Zhang Yang chuckled, "Replacing you with the Spirit-Nurturing Pill is no problem, but you'll have to form an alliance between your Great Snow Mountain and our Azure Cloud Sect!"

"You're dreaming!" Leng Qingfeng said irritably. "I admit I have some status in the sect, but it's absolutely impossible for the Great Snow Mountain and the Azure Cloud Sect to form an alliance."

Besides, haven't you already formed an alliance with the Langya Sacred Land?

Zhang Yang didn't answer Leng Qingfeng's question at all. He invited Leng Qingfeng back to Azure Cloud Peak, but this time, he didn't take Leng Qingfeng back to the Azure Cloud Great Hall. Instead, he took him to his own villa.

Upon entering the villa, Leng Qingfeng sensed everything about it and his eyes lit up immediately.

"Your house is even more comfortable than the Azure Cloud Guesthouse. Did you take inspiration from the Azure Cloud Guesthouse?" Leng Qingfeng asked.

"You've got it backwards!" Zhang Yang invited Leng Qingfeng to sit down, then said seriously, "It would be beneficial for both of us to form an alliance between the Great Snow Mountain and the Azure Cloud Sect."

First of all, you no longer need to be afraid of the Demon Lord, nor do you need to worry about the Azure Cloud Sect causing you trouble.

And our Azure Cloud Sect no longer needs to worry about the threat from your Great Snow Mountain, isn't that a good thing?"

Leng Qingfeng shook his head repeatedly. "In short, I can't decide this kind of thing, and asking me won't help. To be honest, I really have no intention of opposing your Azure Cloud Sect... If your Azure Cloud Sect waits for me for a thousand years, I should be able to take control of the Great Snow Mountain, and then we will definitely form an alliance!"

Zhang Yang really wanted to just tell Leng Qingfeng to get lost; why wait another thousand years?

"Since you don't have the right to form an alliance with us, we can at least establish trade relations, right?" Zhang Yang looked at Leng Qingfeng enthusiastically. "Your Snow Region must have things we need; and our Azure Cloud Sect must have things that your Great Snow Mountain doesn't have."

The exchange of resources between us is a great benefit for both of us.

You should be able to make the decision about this, right?

The reason he treated Leng Qingfeng so specially was partly because he liked Leng Qingfeng, and partly because he hoped to establish a relationship with Great Snow Mountain.

Admittedly, there are still conflicts between the Azure Cloud Sect and the Great Snow Mountain.

However, a mutually beneficial arrangement should be feasible.

Leng Qingfeng frowned, pondered for a long time, and then slowly said, "I cannot agree to the deal with you on behalf of the sect, because there are still many people within the sect who actually hate your Azure Cloud Sect."

However, I have a sect in the Snow Region that is affiliated with me, called the Snow God Palace.

I can authorize them to establish trade relations with your Azure Cloud Sect."

Zhang Yang nodded repeatedly. "That's feasible! It was worth it for me to personally spar with you!"

Leng Qingfeng jumped up immediately. "If you bring this up again, I'll change my mind!"

Zhang Yang said with a smile, "As this marks the beginning of your trade relations with us, I also want to show you the strength of our Azure Cloud Sect. Come, let me show you the Spirit-Nurturing Pill that our Azure Cloud Sect has refined!"

He took out a Spirit-Nurturing Pill refined by Danchenzi and handed it to Leng Qingfeng.

Leng Qingfeng sensed it and confirmed that it was indeed a Spirit-Nurturing Pill; he had taken it.

Before this, his Primordial Spirit had been burning with pain, and his injuries had not been relieved much.

Injuries from Supreme-Grade Spirit Artifact aren't so easily healed.

Now, after taking a Spirit-Nurturing Pill, he immediately felt his injuries to his Primordial Spirit rapidly recovering.

Leng Qingfeng stared at Zhang Yang in disbelief, unable to understand why the Spirit-Nurturing Pill from the Azure Cloud Sect was so effective.

Zhang Yang chuckled and said, "I robbed you of heavenly materials and earthly treasures in this Prodigy Battlefield. You did indeed acquire some good stuff... The pills refined from these heavenly materials and earthly treasures are far more effective than yours."

In fact, this Spirit-Nurturing Pill contains ingredients from ancient medicines that are over three thousand years old, which is what makes its effects so amazing.

Such elixirs are undoubtedly extremely precious.

However, in order to open up trade routes in the Snow Region and, more importantly, to establish diplomatic relations with Snow Region, Zhang Yang still took out one and let Leng Qingfeng personally see its effects.

Leng Qingfeng was unaware of the existence of the three-thousand-year-old elixir; he genuinely believed that among the heavenly materials and earthly treasures Zhang Yang had stolen, there were truly some unique medicinal materials.

He looked at Zhang Yang speechlessly and said, "How dare you say that? It's one thing to steal our heavenly materials and earthly treasures, but you also killed so many of our fellow disciples."

Zhang Yang countered, "Then what would you do if you were in that situation?"

Leng Qingfeng didn't answer, changing the subject and saying seriously, "After I returned to the Snow Region, I instructed the Snow God Palace to do everything in its power to trade with you... If there's something you need that the Snow God Palace truly doesn't have, I will do my best to help the Snow God Palace complete the transaction!"

After personally experiencing the pills of the Azure Cloud Sect, he immediately deepened his trade with the Azure Cloud Sect.

In fact, he felt that the Great Snow Mountain should also make a deal with the Azure Cloud Sect, but these matters should be discussed after returning to the sect.

"Alright, it's settled then!" Zhang Yang nodded. "By the way, I'm about to publish the new issue of the Azure Cloud Gazette. The main content is an invitation to all sects in the world to participate in military exercises. Could you take the invitation to Great Snow Mountain while you're at it?"
