Chapter 1565 Secret Cauldron
"No!"
Duan Qing refused without thinking.
The people had been saved, so there was no reason to send them back to the tiger's mouth.
He knew what would happen if these two stayed.
Besides, he was still hoping to get news about Wu Ji from these two.
The red-lipped woman chuckled and shrugged: "Then there is no way!"
"Either you leave by yourself, or you stay and leave after I finish my business."
Duan Qing's eyes swept over the red-lipped woman and the other four, and finally fell back on the red-lipped woman: "What do you want to do?"
The red-lipped woman raised her chin slightly and glanced at the door behind her: "Of course, to take back what belongs to me."
After a moment of silence, Duan Qing nodded: "Okay, Duan will wait here."
"This is where the Tianding Sect cultivates precious spiritual medicines. Isn't Duan tempted?" The red-lipped woman was a little surprised.
"With your strength, I definitely don't mind sharing the spiritual medicine here with you."
"Whatever you want to do is your own business, and I have no intention of getting involved." Duan Qing refused and indirectly pointed out the little thoughts of the red-lipped woman.
This person invited him to share the spiritual medicine, obviously intending to pull him in.
These people obviously have a grudge against the Tianding Sect. If he shares the spiritual medicine of the Tianding Sect with these people, it is tantamount to boarding the pirate ship of these people. If he meets the people of the Tianding Sect in the future, it will be difficult to explain clearly.
Although money can move people's hearts, Duan Qing will never do such a thing that will attract trouble for some unnecessary spiritual medicine.
Seeing Duan Qing's refusal so straightforwardly, the red-lipped woman knew that she could not persuade Duan Qing, so she stopped talking, asked her companions to simply clean up the scene, and then walked into the gate with three companions, and soon disappeared in front of Duan Qing.
The young woman and the baby-faced boy of the Tianding Sect breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this.
After a short pause, the young woman of Tianding Sect turned her gaze to Duan Qing: "I am Gu Yue, this is my junior brother Yu Songsong, may I ask your name?"
Duan Qing walked slowly to a lamp post beside the stone steps and leaned against it, keeping his body in a relatively comfortable posture, and then responded.
"Zuo Shenzong, Duan Qing."
Hearing Zuo Shenzong's name, Gu Yue's eyes lit up: "So you are Zuo Shenzong's Taoist friend."
After saying that, Gu Yue looked at the open high wall gate vigilantly, and pulled the baby-faced boy to Duan Qing carefully.
"There is something I want to talk to Taoist Duan about."
While speaking, Gu Yue subconsciously looked around and made sure that the red-lipped woman was no longer nearby, and then sent a message to Duan Qing.
"In addition to the Thunder Cauldron that was robbed by the thief before, there is another Thunder Cauldron in my Tianding Sect that can open this world, and it can also open this Thunder Vein Secret World."
Hearing this, Duan Qing immediately understood what Gu Yue meant, but then thought of another question.
"Then I wonder when your sect will come to open this world?"
Gu Yue thought for a moment and said with certainty: "When the one-year period is over, the sect master will find that we have not returned to the team and will send someone to open this secret world."
"If you can get rid of those thieves for our sect, our sect will definitely reward you handsomely afterwards."
Obviously, this was Gu Yue's real intention to reveal to Duan Qing that Tianding Sect also held the Thunder Tripod.
Unfortunately, what disappointed Gu Yue was that Duan Qing declined her proposal.
"Duan is not strong enough, and it is already a stretch to save the two of you. I hope you will understand."
Gu Yue looked disappointed, but didn't say anything else, and sighed secretly.
Duan Qing stared at the gate of the high wall silently, thinking to himself.
It must be said that Gu Yue did make a good suggestion.
If there are other ways to leave this place, killing the four red-lipped women is undoubtedly the most convenient way.
Based on his judgment of the strength of the red-lipped women, it should not be difficult to kill these four people.
But the problem is that after killing the four red-lipped women, he has to stay here for a year before he can leave.
If it were normal, it would only take a year, and it would pass in a moment.
But he entered the Tianding Secret Realm this time mainly to cooperate with the Soul Search Sect to track down clues about Wu Ji. If he really had to stay here for a year, wouldn't it be a waste of time to enter the Tianding Secret Realm this time?
This is absolutely unacceptable to Duan Qing.
Although Duan Qing would not agree to Gu Yue's proposal, the other things in his words aroused Duan Qing's interest.
"By the way, Fellow Daoist Gu just mentioned that your sect also has the Thunder Cauldron that can open this world. As far as Duan knows, the twelve secret realms in your sect's Tianding Secret Realm seem to be opened only by exclusive secret cauldrons, and each vein has only one secret cauldron."
"But why does your sect have two Thunder Cauldrons, and both can open this world?"
After hearing Duan Qing's question, Gu Yue fell into silence, and it seemed that he did not want to answer Duan Qing.
Seeing this, Duan Qing quickly gave Gu Yue a way out: "If this matter is inconvenient to tell, then don't tell me. I just asked casually."
Gu Yue showed a look of struggle. After a moment, he whispered: "This matter is a secret of our sect. Please don't spread it."
"Duan Daoyou doesn't know that there is indeed only one secret tripod in each of the twelve meridians of our Tianding Sect."
"But more than half of the real secret tripods of the twelve meridians have been lost or damaged because of the split between the Tiandi Sect and the Tiandi Sect. In fact, most of the secret tripods held by our sect are just later imitations of the secret tripods."
"For example, the Thunder Vein Secret Cauldron that the thief stole before was imitated by our sect later. The effect is similar to the real Thunder Vein Secret Cauldron, and it can smoothly open and close this secret realm."
"So that's it." Duan Qing suddenly realized, and a trace of imperceptible excitement flashed in his eyes.
Next, Duan Qing and Gu Yue chatted for a while, covering many topics.
Of course, in order not to arouse Gu Yue's suspicion, Duan Qing did not directly ask questions about Wu Ji, but tried to probe indirectly.
Although most of the information obtained was useless, after repeated scrutiny, Duan Qing still introduced some things that might be related to Wu Ji, which was not completely fruitless.
For example, Gu Yue once mentioned that this time the Tianding Secret Realm was opened, and the leader of the Tianding Sect, Wang Zilai, wanted to open the main vein secret realm of the Tianzong and the Dizong.
For some reason, in the past, when the Tianding Secret Realm was opened, these two secret realms were generally not opened.
Unknowingly, half an hour passed.
At this time, a sound of footsteps came from the high wall gate, and then the figures of the four red-lipped women reappeared in Duan Qing's sight.
The red-lipped woman walking in front had an irrepressible joy on her face, and seemed to be quite satisfied with the harvest this time.
As soon as the group walked out of the gate, the light curtain at the gate automatically returned to its original state, completely protecting the high wall and the buildings inside, and the gate inside was also closed.
Approaching Duan Qing and the other two, the red-lipped woman smiled at Duan Qing and said, "Haha, I've kept you waiting for a long time, let's go!"
Duan Qing nodded and prepared to set off.
Suddenly, the smile on the mysterious woman's face suddenly faded, and then she and her three companions acted at the same time, surrounding Duan Qing and the other two at lightning speed.
