Fairy bestows immortality

However, although he wanted it, he wasn't blinded by greed.

Instead, he remained calm on the surface and gave a dry laugh.

"Brother Qingbai, what do you mean by this?"

"Since it is the ancient land of the Azure Dragon Clan and has been sealed off by the older generation of cultivators, shouldn't Brother Qingbai join forces with Fellow Daoist Qinglan if they really want to obtain the treasures within?"

"Or, instructing the elders in the clan to take action should be easy, right?"

He realized the key issue.

Qingbai is a prodigy of the Azure Dragon Clan. It's a bit unreasonable that he would seek help from himself instead of his own clansmen.

Qingbai seemed to have anticipated Su Yun's words and calmly said, "Brother Su is right. If things were normal, I would definitely ask my elder sister to go with me. After all, we shouldn't let the good stuff go to outsiders."

"But as Brother Su has also seen, my elder sister is not able to deal with chaotic matter, and it is dangerous. Her strength is not as good as mine. I don't want her to be in danger. Even some of the older generation in Qianlong Bay have difficulty breaking through to refine it."

"Moreover, my father is currently in seclusion within the clan, attempting to break through to a higher realm. I have been waiting for these past few days but have not received any news of his emergence from seclusion, so it is not appropriate to disturb him for the time being."

"If I inform the other cultivators in the clan, I'm afraid I'll have a hard time getting a share of what I get, or I'll only get a very small portion."

“This is not what I want.”

What he said was the truth.

The elite demon races have a long history and countless members. Apart from their closest family members or a few trusted members, most of the other members are not much different from strangers.

In fact, many relationships are worse than those between strangers, with numerous conflicts of interest among various factions!

Qingbai paused and continued, "The ancient land has been turbulent for so long. If we don't act now, the treasures may be taken by someone else first."

"Therefore, after careful consideration, I have finally decided that I want to join forces with Brother Su."

"The treasures we get will be divided equally."

His expression was serious and sincere, and his eyes showed no sign of deception.

What he said was very sincere and there was nothing wrong with it.

Su Yun then learned why the other party had hesitated to speak and had waited all these days.

It turns out that she still wanted to wait for her father to emerge from seclusion, but after waiting in vain, she finally couldn't wait any longer and decided to join forces with him.

So, all of this makes sense.

Su Yun wouldn't be too wary of what Qingbai said, because there was evidence to support his previous statements.

After obtaining the precious treasure, Azure Dragon Essence Blood, the siblings were able to take it with them, expend energy refining its will, and then hand it over to Zi Yanqiong.

Therefore, it can be seen that both siblings are trustworthy and keep their word, making them worthy of close friendship.

So he said directly, "Alright, then I will join forces with Brother Qingbai to explore for the treasure."

After receiving consent, Qingbai's eyes lit up.

"That would be wonderful!"

Su Yun smiled and said, "But let me make this clear first: if we encounter any cultivators from the Azure Dragon Clan, I would appreciate your help, Brother Qingbai. Otherwise, it would be a great injustice if I were to be killed by a powerful figure."

"Haha!" Qingbai laughed heartily, a rare occurrence for him.

“Brother Su, there’s no need to worry. With my status, I still carry a lot of weight here. With just a word from me, no one in my clan will attack you.”

What Qingbai said is true. He is a prodigy of the Azure Dragon Clan and one of the top talents among the younger generation. Apart from a few exceptionally gifted individuals, almost no one has a higher status than him.

Although many of the older cultivators in Qianlong Bay were of higher strength and seniority than him, their actual status in the clan was far inferior to his.

This top-tier demon race has a history spanning millennia and possesses an incredibly profound foundation.

His family has a vast number of direct descendants, branches, and various clansmen, too many to count.

Only those who are truly direct descendants, or whose branches exhibit pure Azure Dragon bloodline and ancestral traits, will have their status elevated infinitely; other members of the clan will not be eligible.

Coincidentally, the Qingbai siblings are from the direct lineage, and their Azure Dragon bloodline is considered to be among the purest and most abundant.
