97: Heart Shield

“Are you doing magic here?” Wei Xun complained after seeing it.

“This Heart Protection Shield has seven protective Spirit Stones!” Wang Tianchi pointed to the seven white gems inlaid on the shield, then continued to introduce, “And it automatically absorbs Spiritual Qi, transforming into a golden protective light to block attacks when it is about to suffer a heavy blow.”

“You can put it in your embrace and use it as a Heart Protection Mirror, or you can turn it into a shield and actively block attacks!”

After listening to Wang Tianchi’s introduction, Wei Xun smiled and said, “Doesn’t that mean this thing can only block seven heavy blows?”

“That’s right! But as long as there’s time to replenish Spiritual Qi, it can block attacks again!” Wang Tianchi nodded.

“Then aren’t you afraid that after you give me this thing, I’ll kill you right now?” Wei Xun squinted at Wang Tianchi, “If I kill you now, won’t all these things of yours be mine?”

Wang Tianchi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, “Who said I only have this one protective Magic Treasure on me?”

Upon hearing this, Wei Xun immediately smiled and said, “I was just joking!”

Wang Tianchi’s mouth twitched. He was certain that Wei Xun was definitely not joking just now.

“Anything else?” Wei Xun continued to ask.

“Of course!” Wang Tianchi then flipped his palm, and from his Storage Ring, he took out a white feather.

“What is this thing again?” Wei Xun asked.

“This feather is from the legendary Divine Beast, the Dark Gold Nine-Colored Phoenix!” Wang Tianchi held the feather and gently waved it, and he actually floated up into the air, then hovered in mid-air.

“How amazing!” Wei Xun immediately became interested after seeing it.

“Of course!” After landing again, Wang Tianchi held the feather and introduced, “By pouring Spiritual Qi into the feather, you can use it to fly through the air.”

“You weren’t using this thing to track me just now, were you?” Wei Xun asked.

“That’s right!” Wang Tianchi nodded.

No wonder!

It was only then that Wei Xun understood. The reason he hadn't heard Wang Tianchi tracking him with his Wind-Following Ear skill earlier was mainly because his attention was focused on the ground, and he hadn't listened for movements in the sky at all.

“How about it? As long as you get me that Spirit Peach, I can give you one!” Wang Tianchi smiled and said, “These Magic Treasures are all priceless good things, very rare in this world!”

“It’s not impossible!” Wei Xun was somewhat moved after hearing this, “But how do I give you the Spirit Peach after I get it?”

“Come to Qian Yuan City to find me!” Wang Tianchi replied.

“Big brother, are you serious?!” Wei Xun pouted, “I’m just a monster. Going to your Qian Yuan City alone, isn’t that just seeking death?”

“Don’t worry about that!” Wang Tianchi flipped his palm and took out a golden token with a large ‘Wang’ character carved on it.

“What is this again?!” Wei Xun asked.

“This is our Qian Yuan City’sPass! As long as you have this, no one will dare to stop you!” Wang Tianchi smiled and said, “Even if you’re a monster, absolutely no one will dare to trouble you!”

“If you bring me the Spirit Peach, just take this token and find any soldier in the city, have him inform me, and I’ll know you’ve arrived!”

Wei Xun took the token and found that it was made of pure gold and quite heavy.

“Are you willing to help me now?” Wang Tianchi asked.

Wei Xun held the token and pondered for a moment, then looked up at Wang Tianchi and said, “I can help you, but you have to give me the Magic Treasure first!”

“How can that be!” Wang Tianchi shook his head and refused, “If you take the item and don’t do the job, wouldn’t I be a fool?”

“That’s simple enough!” Wei Xun patted Wang Tianchi’s shoulder and smiled, “You give me one Magic Treasure first, and when I get you the Spirit Peach, you give me another Magic Treasure, wouldn’t that work out perfectly!”

Hearing Wei Xun’s words, Wang Tianchi’s mouth twitched, “You’re too greedy. You want to exchange one Spirit Peach for two of my Magic Treasures?”

“There’s nothing I can do about it!” Wei Xun sighed and feigned difficulty, “The Black Abyss Mountain Range is full of dangers. I’ll definitely encounter a lot of trouble going to find that Spirit Peach for you. At best, I’ll be severely injured; at worst, I’ll lose my life!”

At this point, Wei Xun shook his head helplessly, looking troubled.

“You asking for two of your Magic Treasures isn’t too much, is it!”

“You…” Wang Tianchi was somewhat speechless by Wei Xun’s performance.

Seeing that Wang Tianchi didn’t speak, Wei Xun continued, “You said your father’s birthday is coming soon. If he could see such a large Spirit Peach, how happy would he be?”

“When your father is happy, let alone two Magic Treasures, he might even reward you with more things!”

Hearing Wei Xun’s words, Wang Tianchi sighed helplessly, “As long as you can bring me a complete Spirit Peach, never mind two Magic Treasures, I can give you three!”

“Then it’s a deal, three Magic Treasures!” Wei Xun nodded.

“…” Wang Tianchi felt like he had been greatly tricked, but he still asked, “Which one do you want first?”

Wei Xun glanced at the three Magic Treasures in Wang Tianchi’s hand, finally fixing his gaze on the Seven-Star Heart Protection Shield.

This kind of life-saving Magic Treasure was currently more attractive to Wei Xun.

The attack he had just launched against Wang Tianchi could be easily blocked by the Magical Artifact.

If he encountered danger in the future and needed to fight others to the death.

This item could completely become an important treasure for him to turn defeat into victory, or to escape with his life.

“I want this Heart Protection Shield!” Wei Xun pointed to the copper plate in Wang Tianchi’s hand.

Wang Tianchi heard him and handed the copper plate to Wei Xun.

Wei Xun took the Heart Protection Shield and then asked, “When is your old man’s birthday?”

“There are still three months and five days!” Wang Tianchi fanned himself and said, “That is, October 23rd is my father’s birthday. If you want the remaining two Magic Treasures, you must bring them to Qian Yuan City before this time, otherwise our transaction will be void!”

“No problem!” Wei Xun nodded.

Anyway, he had now received a Magic Treasure for free. When he returned to the Black Abyss Mountain Range, he would ask the other monsters.

If he could figure out where this Spirit Peach was, then he would go and get it.

If he really couldn’t find it, then he would just pretend it never happened.

He wouldn’t lose anything!

After the transaction was completed, Wang Tianchi floated up from the ground with the feather and then said to Wei Xun, “Don’t forget the time, October 23rd!”

“Don’t worry!” Wei Xun nodded.

Then he saw Wang Tianchi flying away into the distance with the feather.

Wei Xun placed the Heart Protection Mirror on his chest and then led Niu Cuihua back towards the Black Abyss Mountain Range.

Since Niu Cuihua had recovered her mobility, the rest of the journey went very quickly.

However, since it was already evening, it was already early morning the next day by the time they reached Jiaolong Lake.

After returning near Jiaolong Lake, Wei Xun let Niu Cuihua go back by herself, as it was already considered safe in this vicinity.

Wei Xun himself was also preparing to return to the wooden house to rest.

But shortly after he sat down in the wooden house, Xiong Er came running back from who knew where.

“Big brother, this is bad! Ao Feng Ge came back severely injured and is almost dying!”
