I Want the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng

Bai Wanwan and Qian Renxue exchanged a glance, understanding each other's intentions. Bai Wanwan frowned slightly, revealing a hint of displeasure, and made it seem as if she didn't want to negotiate.

Qian Renxue then placed her hand on Bai Wanwan's shoulder. "Wanwan, since His Your Majesty has already spoken, why don't we sit down and talk?"

"Okay."

Bai Wanwan glanced coldly at Tang Xiao, revealing a reluctant expression.

"In that case, let us all proceed to the Imperial Palace have a proper discussion there."

As Xue Ye spoke, he glanced at the scene again before walking back to the Imperial Guard Army.

The neatly arranged Imperial Guard Army, after turning around, marched in orderly steps towards the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, Tang Xiao, and the others silently followed behind the Imperial Guard Army, heading towards the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

After instructing Lor Diarra to clean up the battlefield and count the casualties, Qian Renxue and Bai Wanwan led the five Titled Douluo, including Guibao and Moxiong, towards the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

Heaven Dou Imperial Palace

In a Hall used for meetings.

Xue Ye sat in the main seat, his gaze sweeping to the left and right below him.

On the left sat Qian Renxue, Bai Wanwan, and Ning Fengzhi.

The five Titled Douluo— Guibao, Moxiong, Ling Yuan, She Long, and Ci Xue —stood silently behind Qian Renxue and Bai Wanwan.

Chen Xin stood beside Ning Fengzhi, closing her eyes to rest.

On the right-hand seat sat Tang Xiao, covered in wounds and looking utterly disheveled.

"Ahem~"

Xue Ye cleared his throat, breaking the silence, and said, "Now that we're all seated, let's have a proper talk."

"I've heard about what happened."

"Cang Lan, Chi Yang, tell me your thoughts first."

Xue Ye focused his gaze on Qian Renxue and Bai Wanwan, his attitude being very amiable.

Their attitude became even more amiable when they saw the five Titled Douluo standing behind them.

Five Titled Douluo are figures to be treated with utmost care, no matter where they are placed, especially given their close relationship with the royal family, which makes them even more important.

"Your Majesty, we have no long-standing grudges or recent conflicts with the Clear Sky Sect, yet they secretly instigated the Clear Sky Sect Strength Clan to vandalize our King's Mansion and attack our subordinates, causing us enormous losses."

"But now that the Strength Clan has been wiped out, my sister and I do not wish to wage further war. As long as the Clear Sky Sect can compensate our King's Mansion for its losses, this matter can be put to rest, and we will leave each other alone from now on."

"Otherwise, it will be a fight to the death."

Qian Renxue lightly tapped the armrest of the chair with her fingertips, her gaze quietly fixed on Tang Xiao.

"What do you mean by saying that our Clear Sky Sect secretly instructed us?"

"The Strength Clan has long since broken away from the Clear Sky Sect. What does their attack on your King's Mansion have to do with our Clear Sky Sect?"

Tang Xiao immediately retorted.

"Heh~"

"It has nothing to do with your Clear Sky Sect?"

"Do you really think we don't know about the underhanded tricks your Clear Sky Sect has been up to behind the scenes?"

"Hey Tang, since you don't want to pay compensation, then there's no need to talk anymore. I'll send men to uproot Moonlight Pavilion first, then lead a group to attack Clear Sky Sect and fight you to the death."

Bai Wanwan pointed at Tang Xiao, her eyes revealing a chilling killing intent.

The five Titled Douluo, including Guibao and Moxiong, gradually released their own oppressive aura, showing a tendency to fight at the slightest provocation.

"Your Highness Canglan, please don't act rashly."

"Calm down first, let's talk this out."

Ning Fengzhi revealed a faint smile, speaking to soothe Bai Wanwan's emotions, before turning his gaze to Tang Xiao: "Sect Leader Tang, while the incident of the Strength Clan smashing the King's Mansion may not necessarily have been instigated by your Clear Sky Sect, your Clear Sky Sect's shadow is indeed behind it."

"Furthermore, the demands of His Your Highness Cang Lan and Chi Yang are not excessive; they are merely seeking compensation for the losses that the King's Mansion should bear."

Ning Fengzhi's voice was very gentle.

However, his attitude still indicated that he stood on the side of Qian Renxue and Bai Wanwan.

"What Sect Leader Ning said makes sense."

"Moreover, Cang Lan and Chi Yang's demands are indeed not excessive."

Xue Ye nodded slightly and looked at Tang Xiao, asking for Tang Xiao opinion.

Tang Xiao did not answer immediately.

He stared silently in Ning Fengzhi's direction, his eyes dark and unreadable, as if he were lost in thought.

The Hall fell silent once more.

Qian Renxue waited calmly.

Bai Wanwan stared at Tang Xiao with murderous intent.

Ning Fengzhi maintained a faint smile throughout.

Xue Ye waited quietly for Tang Xiao's reply.

After a while.

Tang Xiao shifted his gaze from Ning Fengzhi to Bai Wanwan and Qian Renxue.

"How much did the King's Mansion suffer?"

Tang Xiao asked a question, but his eyes gradually closed.

After careful consideration, he decided to back down for the time being.

Although he wasn't sure whether Qian Renxue and Bai Wanwan would actually go to war with the Clear Sky Sect, he didn't want to gamble on the final outcome.

If war were to break out, he would undoubtedly be the first to be unable to leave Heaven Dou City, and the result would be a lose-lose situation for both Clear Sky Sect and King's Mansion. Even if Clear Sky Sect were to win in the end, it would be a Pyrrhic victory.

It could even severely damage the company's vitality or shake its foundation.

I don't know how long it will take to recover.

If we lose, the destruction of the Strength Clan will serve as a cautionary tale.

Therefore, negotiating a settlement to compensate the King's Mansion for its losses is the best outcome from any perspective.

Moreover, this is only a temporary concession. When the Clear Sky Sect re-emerges, we will wait for a suitable opportunity to retaliate for what happened today.

"Our King's Mansion's losses are approximately seven million Gold Soul Coin. The most valuable items are the three high-quality Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone we lost. However, considering that the Clear Sky Sect has been in seclusion for many years, we won't ask for more; seven million Gold Soul Coin in compensation will suffice."

Qian Renxue spoke earnestly.

Although their actual loss was around one million Gold Soul Coin, what was in the King's Mansion was not up to them to decide. If they said they had lost three high-quality Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone, then they had lost them.

Whether it's fake or not, no one else can verify it.

"Add another Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, or this matter isn't over."

Bai Wanwan quietly added another sentence.

Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, that's a really good thing.

Although this item is currently not in the possession of the Clear Sky Sect, but rather in the hands of the Speed Clan, Bai Wanwan is certain that the Clear Sky Sect can obtain the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng if they so desire.

As for how Clear Sky Sect will be brought back, that's none of her business.

Seven million Gold Soul Coin?

"Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng?"

Why don't you just rob it?

Tang Xiao's eyes snapped open instantly, staring at Qian Renxue and Bai Wanwan with a mixture of shock and anger.
