"Young man, don't be so hot-headed."
"There are always people better than you, and heavens beyond heavens."
"In a matter this important, you do not yet have the authority to speak over your family head."
Lin Qi turned around and looked at Lu Yuan.
There was certainly displeasure on his face.
Yet he truly did not deny Lu Yuan's words.
He had only one stance.
Clearly, it was his family.
For the family's benefit, he could sit down and negotiate with the Nine-tailed Fox Clan. For the family's benefit, he could also strike and wipe out the Nine-tailed Fox Clan.
Of course, he also knew that the proposal his elder had just made was far too outrageous. No matter what, Hu Jiu Jiu was a Supreme Realm cultivator and a clan leader. No clan leader in their right mind would allow another force to extend its hands into their territory, much less permit another force to interfere in their internal affairs.
Therefore, he had not truly expected that unreliable plan to succeed in the first place.
However, everything had two sides.
His answer that he needed to discuss it was not entirely an excuse. At the very least, half the reason was that he genuinely needed to return and think it over carefully.
One was long-term profit.
One was short-term profit.
What were the drawbacks of each?
What were the benefits of each?
How should he weigh them?
How should he make concessions?
Take the proposal above as an example.
To be honest, they truly could not interfere in the Nine-tailed Fox Clan's internal affairs. But from another perspective, could they use Hu Qi Qi to exchange for some long-term benefits, such as cultivation resources?
The Beast Race had its own territory.
Humans had their own territory.
