Mo Wuji didn't even wait for Du Ju to return him his elder identity token. He opened his palm and the jade token went back to his hand.
He was here to collect a debt, so the more arrogant he was, the better. If he showed any favour to a cunning fox like Du Ju, his debt would suffer a severe discount.
Moreover, he knew that he couldn't destroy this Void Piercer Treasure Pavilion. The key thing that Mo Wuji knew clearly was that while his status wasn't low, he couldn't casually destroy it. It was true that the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance Sharphorn Branch had the ability to destroy this branch of the Void Piercer Treasure Pavilion, but having the ability and actually using it were two different things.
If he really kicked this Void Piercer Treasure Pavilion out from Sharphorn Immortal Ruins, not only would he create an enemy for the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance, he would also create a notorious reputation for himself as well. That would really affect the relations he could form in the future.
He wanted to give Du Ju the impression that after he obtained the status as a Pill Dao Immortal Alliance Branch Elder, he was going to be arrogant and despotic, not caring about anything else other than his own benefits.
Only by doing this, would be have the chance to obtain the greatest benefits. Mo Wuji had climbed through sh*t for so many years, and had gone through two lives, so how could he not know of such a simple logic?
”Elder Mo, this matter is indeed my Void Piercer Treasure Pavilion’s fault,” Seeing Mo Wuji domineeringly retrieve the elder jade token, Du Ju’s anger had completely disappeared. He hurriedly clasped his fists and expressed his apology.
By the time you reach a position like Du Ju’s, you would naturally knew when you could be angry, and when not to. Mo Wuji was hothead, but based on the fact that his power was so startling and he was able to become an elder at the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance at such a young age, it would be weird that his origins were simple.
One look at Mo Wuji’s expression and they knew that this fella was arrogant to the bone. An arrogant fella could live happily till now, so how could his backer be simple?
Moreover, this matter was indeed the Void Piercer Treasure Pavilion’s fault.
Dou Hualong was injured within the Void Piercer Treasure Pavilion, and the Pavilion didn’t do anything about it. If Dou Hualong was any other random passer-by, then even if he died, no would would care. However, the problem now was that this Dou Hualong actually had such a strong backer. So the situation was completely different.
”Say it then, how should we handle this matter?” Mo Wuji knew that what needs to be done had been done. Now, he only needed to wait and collect the rewards. After saying that sentence, he deliberately brought his teacup up and sipped it.
Du Ju said helplessly, ”Elder Mo, you can take a look at the things in my Treasure Pavilion. If there’s anything you like, you can take it.”
Mo Wuji’s spiritual will promptly swept the sales cabinets below. He knew that the Void Piercer’s best treasures definitely wouldn’t be placed within the display cabinets but he couldn’t really do much about that. He definitely wasn’t able to force the Void Piercer Treasure Pavilion to bring out their best treasures. With a simple round of threats, it was already pretty amazing that he was able to achieve such an effect.
Mo Wuji had his spiritual will scan the cabinets below; soon, he discovered that were various kinds of ores, immortal herbs, and some peculiar and unknown materials.
Even though some of them were very valuable, they weren’t very useful to Mo Wuji.
More than ten minutes passed. Mo Wuji’s spiritual will now landed on an ancient jade letter; the jade letter had a very simple name, Equipment Dao.
This was a jade letter about smithing equipment. Ever since Mo Wuj started suspecting Master Pu Zi, he wanted to learn smithing for his own. The reason why he had never started was because he never had the time and he didn’t have a master.
As he thought of this, he nodded towards Du Ju, his expression had warmed up and even his tone had become affable, ”Dao Friend Du, I’m very satisfied with you. Perhaps in the future, if I need anything, I might come to Dao Friend Du’s place.”
Ever since Mo Wuji came, he had been oppressive and domineering. But when Mo Wuji suddenly spoke so amiably, it left Du Ju overwhelmed with favor. Du Ju hurriedly said, ”Elder Mo is too courteous. If you need any help from me, Du Ju, in the future, feel free to instruct me. I, Du Ju, do not dare say much about anything else, but I should be able to help you with such rare and peculiar ores.”
This was Mo Wuji’s desired effect; he did not come here to push Du Ju to his limits. Now that he had achieved his goals, he naturally needed to leave some favor behind to Du Ju. This matter had been extremely simple, and he had done a favor which costs nothing.
”I see that Dao Friend Du Ju has many peak grade ores here. But I don’t wish to punish Dao Friend Du by taking Dao Friend Du’s ores away. How about this, I will just take that ‘Equipment Dao’ jade letter; consider it as an act of befriending Dao Friend Du.”
Du Ju was lightly startled; in reality, that jade letter was more valuable than many of the ores. But in his perspective, Mo Wuji said such things because he wasn’t familiar with the goods sold in the Void Piercer Treasure Pavilion.
However, if he could use this introductory level jade token to settle this problem, and befriend Mo Wuji, an elder of the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance, then it would naturally be a good thing.
He did not hesitate to clasp his fists and say, ”Elder Mo, in the future, I, Du Ju, am Elder Mo’s friend. If Elder Mo has any requests, if I, Du Ju, am able to do it, I definitely wouldn’t reject you.”
With that, he extended his hand and that ‘Equipment Dao’ jade letter landed in his palms. He then handed it to Mo Wuji.
