Do You Have What It Takes to Fight Me, Wang Chen?
Time passed little by little, and more and more Senior Student gathered at the Qiankun Pavilion.
Curiosity is an innate human trait that exists in every world.
The onlookers arrived early and secured a good spot.
Although you can't go inside the Qiankun Pavilion, it's still very interesting to look at it from the outside.
No matter how domineering the Medicine Gang is, they can only clear out the Qiankun Pavilion, preventing onlookers from getting in.
But when it comes to the outside world, they are powerless to do anything about it.
Around 10 a. m., Liu Zhe, the leader of the Medicine Gang, led the remaining elders and some confidants to the Qiankun Pavilion in a grand procession.
"Wang Chen hasn't arrived yet?"
Hearing this news from his subordinates at the entrance of the Qiankun Pavilion, Liu Zhe was also a little angry.
As the master of a power that monopolized the entire Inner Academy's elixir business, he was also quite arrogant.
The only reason they were willing to admit defeat this time was because the Kunlun Sect had simply too many elixirs.
In order to make a profit, he had no choice but to bow down.
But that doesn't mean he's really admitting defeat.
He gave them face and arrived at ten o'clock, but none of the Kunlun Sect members had arrived yet, which did make him a little angry.
However, as the leader of the Medicine Gang, he still managed to control his emotions quite well.
He simply nodded expressionlessly and led the people inside.
Inside the furnished reception room, Liu Zhe sat down and immediately closed his eyes to rest.
The eldest brother didn't speak, and the other elders didn't speak first either, lest they get into trouble.
Time passed little by little, and another hour went by.
Wang Chen had not yet arrived at the Qiankun Pavilion at this time.
Even Liu Zhe, who was known for his composure, was starting to lose his composure.
After taking several deep breaths to suppress his anger, Liu Zhe opened his eyes and looked at the elders.
"Chief Liu, I've heard so much about you."
Just then, the hall door was pushed open, and a voice rang out.
Then Wang Chen led Man Hu and the Liu, Guan, and Zhang into the room.
Wang Chen took the lead and sat down directly on the left.
Man Hu and the three of them, Liu, Guan, and Zhang, also sat down in turn with Wang Chen.
On the opposite side were the leader of the Medicine Gang and his elders.
In terms of numbers, Wang Chen's side was quite outnumbered.
However, in terms of momentum, there was no difference between the two sides.
"I wonder what brings Chief Liu here?"
Could it be that the Medicine Gang is about to give up and is planning to surrender?
The members of the Medicine Gang all looked displeased upon hearing these mocking words.
Mao Tai, who had the worst temper and had been humiliated by Wang Chen before, slammed his fist on the table and stood up.
"Wang Chen, don't be so arrogant."
We invited you here simply because our Medicine Gang is a large and powerful organization, and we can't bear to see such a rising force as the Kunlun Sect collapse.
Don't be so arrogant as to think you've won.
Let me give you some advice, young man: don't be too hot-blooded!
Mao Tai spoke with great passion, as if things were exactly as he described.
However, Wang Chen couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.
"If you're not spirited, you can't be called a young person!"
Without even thinking, Wang Chen retorted without giving any face.
"Alright, Mao Tai."
Mao Tai about to continue his insults when the gang leader Liu Zhe, spoke up and stopped him.
Liu Zhe, as the gang leader, still has some influence.
Although Mao Tai was unhappy, he still sat down.
"Sect Leader Wang, I don't want to hide anything. I invited you here today because I want to resolve our conflict peacefully."
Ultimately, there isn't much of a conflict between our two factions.
Besides, we're all from the Alchemy Department, there's no need to make such a big fuss."
After calming Mao Tai down, Liu Zhe revealed his purpose.
"So what are your thoughts?"
Wang Chen's goal was to crush the Medicine Gang and completely replace their position.
But I'm still willing to communicate with them.
Having come from the Alchemy Department, Wang Chen was still willing to give the other party some face.
"Let's stop that kind of bottomless bidding and work together to earn Fire Energy and resources."
"Our Medicine Gang is also willing to give up 15% of its share as business for the Kunlun Sect."
Liu Zhe didn't waste any words and directly stated his purpose.
This was something they had discussed and agreed upon beforehand.
As long as they can stop the malicious competition, given the size of their Medicine Gang group, they can definitely still make a lot of money.
Of course, when negotiating, it's impossible to reveal the bottom line all at once.
In their previous discussions, the bottom line was a 30% share.
They are willing to settle as long as the cost does not exceed this amount.
After all, if they were to truly fight the Kunlun Sect, they would have to pay a heavy price.
That's it? That's it?
Wang Chen completely dismissed Liu Zhe's suggestion.
He had already decided to completely destroy the Medicine Gang and replace its monopoly, so naturally he couldn't give up halfway.
His purpose in coming here was simply to meet with the higher-ups of the Medicine Gang and, at the same time, to push them to the brink and force them to fight to the bitter end.
The reason for doing this was simply to facilitate the subsequent recruitment of mid-level members of the Medicine Gang and to completely cut off the Medicine Gang's path to resurgence.
Striving first is indeed an advantage, but it can easily be perceived as being too domineering.
This would make it difficult for him to inherit the Medicine Gang's legacy.
"Twenty percent"
Hearing Wang Chen's slightly sarcastic words, Liu Zhe increased his bets.
"There's nothing appealing about this."
How about this: you simply disband the Medicine Gang and merge it into my Kunlun Sect.
With your skills, I certainly won't treat you unfairly.
Wang Chen's idea of reconciliation naturally involved proposing a solution that they absolutely could not accept.
"At most 30%, otherwise we'd rather fight to the death."
Faced with Wang Chen's stubbornness, Liu Zhe's anger was about to burst. He slammed his fist on the table and said through gritted teeth.
"Do you have the ability to compete with me, Wang Chen?"
Wang Chen didn't tolerate the other party's behavior either, and slammed his fist on the table, standing up and retorting.
Upon hearing Wang Chen's disrespectful words, Liu Zhe already understood that the possibility of reconciliation was slim.
He sat up straight, his eyes fixed on Wang Chen.
Are you sure?
"Nature."
Wang Chen also gave a very affirmative answer.
"In that case, there's nothing more to discuss. Let's all rely on our own abilities."
Liu Zhe didn't say much and simply told the guest to see him out.
Having achieved his goal, Wang Chen didn't linger. He simply waved and left with a flourish.
Seeing Wang Chen leave Qiankun Pavilion, the elders of the Medicine Gang finally came to their senses.
The previous clash between Liu Zhe and Wang Chen was both sharp and brief.
Wang Chen left less than three minutes after he came in.
"Us..."
Mao Tai wanted to ask what this meant.
Liu Zhe waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to say anything.
