Chapter 511: The Trade
A few days ago, Qin Sang had changed his appearance and taken on the identity of an artifact refiner. Under this guise, he became a guest elder of a local shop and openly made his presence known in Qingyang Market.
He frequently interacted with disciples of the Demonic Qingyang Sect, treating them with kindness and generosity. He offered to repair or refine artifacts for them at low prices. In his spare time, he would chat casually, subtly prying for news about the sect without raising suspicion.
Occasionally, he would offer a word or two of guidance, appearing every bit the benevolent senior who cared for his juniors.
Among the disciples were several familiar faces from Tiange Tower. Though they couldn’t recognize the man before them as the very Daoist Master Qingfeng they had long remembered, they couldn’t help but feel a deep sense of familiarity.
Thanks to this, Qin Sang became quite popular.
In truth, Qin Sang had already begun operating in secret as a corpse-refining demonic cultivator, privately reaching out to those interested in buying refined corpses. Most of them were cultivators at the Qi Refining Realm.
Foundation Building cultivators were still observing the situation. A few zombies alone weren’t enough to make them act openly.
Qin Sang didn’t mind. He was conducting legitimate business. He had contacted many in secret and successfully sold four zombies—three of them to disciples of the Demonic Qingyang Sect.
That was to be expected. Compared to rogue cultivators, disciples of the Demonic Qingyang Sect were wealthier and more generous with their offers. Zombies refined by Qin Sang were well worth the price.
So far, he had sold eight refined corpses in total. He now had one zombie and five malevolent corpses left.
Among these five malevolent corpses was one middle-stage Foundation Building corpse—the sole survivor from the battle with Daoist Jiupao.
Of the fourteen survivors of the Kuiyin Sect, four had been refined into malevolent corpses, nine into zombies, and one was kept for another purpose.
