Reuniting with Xiu Wen, Great Battle with Ding Lezheng

"What sort of discussion does Fellow Daoist Ding have in mind?"

Wei Tu narrowed his eyes slightly, assuming a negotiating posture as he faced Ding Lezheng from afar and asked.

"However, Wei must make this clear beforehand: the prerequisite for this gentleman's agreement between you and me is that Sacred Cliff Mountain must release Wei's descendants."

Wei Tu sneered, his stance remaining unyielding, as though he would resume fighting at the very next moment if Ding Lezheng refused this condition.

"Of course!"

"Since this is a gentleman's agreement between us, there is no reason for Ding to continue detaining Fellow Daoist Wei's family."

Ding Lezheng readily agreed.

"Is that true?" Upon hearing this, Wei Tu could not help feeling somewhat surprised.

Though he had calculated that Ding Lezheng would not be foolish enough to use Wei Xiuwen and his son to threaten him, and would most likely return the two to him after seeing that he had broken through to the Spirit Transformation realm,

he had not expected things to go so smoothly.

This bastard had not even named a single condition?

Wait! The Great Yan Cultivation Realm... Could this bastard be planning to stall me while calling in other Spirit Transformation helpers?

Suddenly, Wei Tu recalled the words Ding Lezheng had spoken upon first seeing him.

Ding Lezheng had mistakenly believed there was another "Spirit Transformation expert" from the Great Yan Cultivation Realm backing him, rather than believing that he himself was a Spirit Transformation Venerable.

Such an instinctive reaction undoubtedly proved that Ding Lezheng had some degree of contact with the Great Yan Cultivation Realm.

Ding Lezheng alone did not have much chance of killing a newly ascended Spirit Transformation cultivator, but with another "veteran Spirit Transformation" cultivator added to the mix, that might not be the case.
