Negotiation Expert

"Young friend, you jest. We've come here to discuss this amicably," Jing Xian Jingxian said with a smile. "However, this matter is very important. Wouldn't it be better to ask School Leader Azure Cloud Sect to intervene?"

"My master doesn't have time!" Zhang Yang shook his head repeatedly. "Don't be fooled by the fact that those Demon Lords have been released; it's actually my master who's been suppressing them all along. He can't afford to let his guard down for a second, or there will be serious problems."

Many Dao Integration Realm were speechless, thinking that if Azure Cloud Master could really suppress fifteen Demon Lord by himself, he would probably be more than just the number one cultivator in the world.

With that kind of strength, one would have to be at least True Immortal Realm, right?

"Master has entrusted all matters concerning the Azure Cloud Sect to me. You can discuss anything with me, and my opinion can represent the opinion of the Azure Cloud Sect," Zhang Yang continued.

Jing Xian Jingxian recalled that Zhang Yang was indeed in charge of his last visit to the Azure Cloud Sect.

He decided to let it go, took a deep breath, and then said with a smile, "This time, we had some misunderstandings with the Azure Cloud Sect. Several of our sect's seniors rashly stepped into the Azure Cloud Continent... However, as you might have guessed, these seniors are of profound cultivation, and we dared not stop them, which led to this situation. We just wanted to ask how your sect views this matter?"

Although they have come to cede territory and pay reparations, they still want a dignified way to achieve this.

Zhang Yang smiled faintly, "I don't watch it much."

Since our Azure Cloud Sect has made a prior statement, and they have violated our warnings, then what we must do is eliminate them.

Since they are all dead, and left behind their natal Spirit Artifact, it can be considered as strengthening the foundation of my Azure Cloud Sect.

Their trespassing on the Azure Cloud Continent was, of course, left to be forgotten.

After all, they risked their lives, what more can we ask for?

The nine Dao Integration Realm cultivators stared at Zhang Yang in disbelief. Had this matter really been resolved so easily?

As for Zhang Yang mentioning the deaths of those Dao Integration Realm cultivators to their faces... well, they're all dead anyway, so what he said doesn't matter anymore. Besides, they were all Dao Integration Realm, and they didn't have that much respect for those aging Dao Integration Realm.

"Then let's just let this matter go as you wish, young fellow Daoist?" the Dao Integration Realm expert from Langya Sacred Land tentatively inquired.

They found it hard to believe that Zhang Yang had resolved the matter so easily.

"Otherwise what?" Zhang Yang retorted. "Do you have some other plan?"

Jing Xian Jingxian hurriedly said with a smile, "Everything will be as you say, young friend. Let's just leave it at that. We came here mainly for this matter, and now that it's resolved, we'll take our leave."

The other Dao Integration Realm cultivators nodded with forced smiles, preparing to take their leave.

They had initially thought this would be a major problem, but it was resolved so easily; it was far too simple.

Zhang Yang stood up, smiled, and said, "Since you are all here to resolve this matter, please leave!"

By the way, after you all return, please be sure to gather all the disciples of the sect and activate the sect's defensive formation.

In addition, please relocate all the creatures of the continent as soon as possible. When we start fighting, we won't be able to take care of them.

"What?"

All nine Dao Integration Realm were stunned.

What kind of talk is that?

Zhang Yang, looking surprised, asked, "What's wrong with you guys?"

When you, at the Dao Integration Realm, invaded our Azure Cloud Continent, you did so without any announcement and caused the deaths of countless lives.

Are you not used to me announcing this to you in advance and telling you to prepare?

Should I follow your example and sneak into your continent with fifteen Demon Lord?

Oh dear, I was overthinking it. You don't need to prepare anything when you get back, so as not to waste your energy.

"You'll know when we come to kill us."

Zhang Yang's words sounded like a joke, but the Dao Integration Realm from the nine top sects felt a chill in their hearts and couldn't laugh at all.

The nine Dao Integration Realm cultivators who had already stood up sat back down.

Jing Xian forced a smile and asked, "Young friend, didn't you just say it was over?"

Zhang Yang nodded. "The matter of your sect's Dao Integration Realm invading the Azure Cloud Continent has indeed been resolved."

But is the matter of your sect bullying my Azure Cloud Sect really over just like that?

When you are strong, our sect can only be bullied. Those at the Nascent Primordial Spirit Realm and Dao Integration Realm treat our Azure Cloud Continent like a toilet, coming and going as they please. There are even some at the Tribulation Realm who come to wander around outside our Azure Cloud Continent.

Although our Azure Cloud Sect only has our master at the Tribulation Realm, we still have fifteen Demon Lord.

We plan to take fifteen Demon Lord and explore your continent.

As for what happens then, that's none of our business.

The Dao Integration Myriad Spirits Sect Dao Integration Realm said calmly, "What exactly do you want from us? I know your Azure Cloud Continent suffered heavy losses, but didn't we also suffer heavy losses when you invaded our Myriad Spirits Continent this time?"

Zhang Yang sneered, "If you're not satisfied, then go back and we'll fight again! Everyone else, step back and wait until our Azure Cloud Sect and Myriad Spirits Sect have settled their score before we talk again!"

The Myriad Spirits Sect Dao Integration Realm cultivator trembled slightly, then quickly forced a smile and said, "Young friend, there's no need for that. We can discuss this!"

Five Demon Lord caused such a great loss to the Myriad Spirits Sect.

Fifteen Demon Lord could destroy the Myriad Spirits Sect!

Seeing Zhang Yang's firm attitude, the other Dao Integration Realm were also somewhat at a loss.

It seems that Azure Cloud Master deliberately let this kid out to negotiate; things weren't as simple as they appeared.

They got bitten by this kid last time, and it hurt pretty badly.

How much blood will be lost this time?

Zhang Yang glanced at the several Dao Integration Realm and said coldly, "Since the Azure Cloud Sect suffered its calamity a thousand years ago, in the years that followed, many of your sects' predecessors have indeed made great sacrifices in Demon Suppression. Some of them even gave their lives for this Demon Suppression."

We remember these acts of kindness.

However, starting about five hundred years ago, the strength of the Azure Cloud Sect gradually declined, and your sect's attitude changed.

Not only did they cease participating in the Demon Suppression, but they also began sending people to plot against our Azure Cloud Sect.

Even three hundred years ago, you forced the Azure Cloud Sect to abdicate, causing many of your predecessors to willingly die in order to drive you back.

Three hundred years later, you've finally taken action!

Twenty-seven Dao Integration Realm and ten at the Tribulation Realm —they're here to destroy my Azure Cloud Sect.

Do you really think this is going to end so easily?

One-Guard Monastery Yun Song slowly asked, "We've come here to discuss how to resolve this matter. Be straightforward and state your conditions now."

"Easy!" Zhang Yang sat down and said slowly, "Your schemes against the Azure Cloud Sect started five hundred years ago. Then we'll pay you one hundred million Spirit Stone a year, for a total of five hundred billion Spirit Stone!"

The nine Dao Integration Realm experts' expressions changed. Nine sects, five hundred billion—wouldn't that be over fifty billion for just one sect?

Zhang Yang glanced at the several Dao Integration Realm cultivators. "It's not a total of 50 billion, it's 50 billion for each of your sects!"

The nine Dao Integration Realm jumped up instantly. "Damn it, you don't want to talk anymore, huh?"

Then let's start a full-scale war! Go back and summon all the Tribulation Transcendence Realm Ancestors, and see who will survive in the end!
