The elderly man in a white robe is nad Chang Yan. His identity is the think tank of the Black Water Tribe.
In terms of cultivation, Chang Yan is rely at the Seven Stars Void God Realm. Within the entire Black Water Tribe, there are plenty with higher cultivation than him. Yet, inside the Black Water Tribe, no one dares to show the slightest disrespect towards Chang Yan as the think tank, including the elders in the Nine-star Void God Realm.
This is because Xiao Tian, the leader of the Black Water Tribe, places imnse trust in Chang Yan, the think tank. It can be said that within the tribe, Chang Yan is second only to one. Of course, there are reasons for Xiao Tian’s complete trust in Chang Yan. The fact that the Black Water Tribe could beco the overlord of the northwest border of the Luojiu City Wilderness is closely tied to Hei Yan.
Several thousand years ago, in this border region, there was a tribe that could rival the Black Water Tribe, called the Azure Blue Tribe. The leader of the Azure Blue Tribe was also a True God Realm powerhouse, whose strength was no weaker than Xiao Tian’s. At that ti, the Black Water Tribe and the Azure Blue Tribe were constantly in conflict over interests.
In the end, the Black Water Tribe annihilated the Azure Blue Tribe. The reason for their success was Chang Yan. Chang Yan cunningly designed the trap for the leader of the Azure Blue Tribe, leading to his death. After the death of the True God Realm leader, the entire Azure Blue Tribe was destroyed. From then on, only the Black Water Tribe remained as the overlord of this northwest border.
Since then, Xiao Tian has almost always followed Chang Yan’s advice.
"Think tank, should I et this Jing Yan?" Xiao Tian asked Chang Yan.
"Whether the leader chooses to et this person or not is not important, but our tribe should still have so contact with him to see what his intentions are. Furthermore, the identity of the Heavenly Origin Tribe leader is insignificant, but his status as a mber of the Fourth Palace of the Luo Jiu Divine Palace cannot be underestimated," Chang Yan said with a smile, speaking slowly.
"That makes sense."
"Haha, as a mber of the Fourth Palace of the Luo Jiu Divine Palace, we can’t completely disregard him. However, if just a Fourth Palace mber requests to see , and I go to see him, that’s overestimating him too much. Think tank, how about you go et this Jing Yan on my behalf and see what he wants," Xiao Tian said with a laugh.
"As you command." Chang Yan nodded in response.
In the reception hall of the Black Water Tribe, Jing Yan had been waiting for quite so ti.
"This leader has quite the airs!" Jing Yan thought slightly to himself, having sat there for more than half an hour without seeing the leader of the Black Water Tribe, or even an important person.
Although feeling sowhat dissatisfied, Jing Yan did not show it on his face. He remained smiling and did not instruct the guards outside the room to hurry the process.
He was curious about how long the Black Water Tribe intended to have him wait here.
At this mont, Chang Yan arrived outside the reception room.
"Is the person inside showing any signs of impatience?" Chang Yan asked the guard stationed there in a low voice.
"No abnormality, very quiet throughout," the guard said respectfully to Chang Yan.
"Haha, it seems that this Mr. Jing Yan is not simple either!" Chang Yan squinted his eyes slightly.
While speaking, he stepped into the reception room.
"Haha, sorry to have kept you waiting, sothing had held up earlier. I hope Mr. Jing Yan won’t take offense," said Chang Yan as he entered the room, sizing up Jing Yan. Though he showed a hint of astonishnt upon realizing Jing Yan’s young appearance, it quickly vanished as he laughed and spoke these words.
Jing Yan also scrutinized Chang Yan, frowning slightly. Although he had never seen Xiao Tian, the Black Water Tribe leader, by now he could ascertain that the person in front of him was definitely not Xiao Tian. Xiao Tian was a True God level powerhouse, while this person in front of him was rely at the Seven Stars Void God level.
"No need for such formality, may I know how to address you?" Jing Yan stood up, cupped his hands, and asked courteously.
"Oh, I am Chang Yan, the think tank of the Black Water Tribe. Our leader is quite busy, so I am here to entertain Mr. Jing Yan," Chang Yan said with a smile.
"So, it’s Chang Yan, the think tank. I’ve long admired your reputation," Jing Yan responded politely.
Jing Yan was also aware of this think tank, Chang Yan. Before coming to the Black Water Tribe, Wang Chunlin had ntioned so of the important mbers of the Black Water Tribe to Jing Yan. Therefore, Jing Yan knew that Chang Yan, as the think tank, was an extrely important mber of the Black Water Tribe.
The two sat down.
"Mr. Jing Yan, you said you are the leader of the Heavenly Origin Tribe? From what I know, previously, the Heavenly Origin Tribe ford an alliance with the Yushu Tribe. The information I have suggests that the leader of the Heavenly Origin Tribe seems to be a martial artist nad Xing Kong," Chang Yan said, directing his gaze towards Jing Yan.
"Think tank Chang Yan, your information is indeed accurate. It was the case previously. However, now the Heavenly Origin Tribe and the Yushu Tribe have rged to form the New Tianyuan Tribe. And I am the new leader of the Heavenly Origin Tribe," Jing Yan explained.
"I see, then congratulations to Leader Jing Yan. The Yushu Tribe was previously under the protection of the Black Water Tribe, so now that it has beco the New Tianyuan Tribe, it will naturally continue to be under the care of the Black Water Tribe. Leader Jing Yan can rest assured about this," Chang Yan said, expressing so surprise upon hearing about the rger of the two tribes, though he masked it well and imdiately congratulated Jing Yan, the new leader.
Moreover, his following words naturally conveyed to Jing Yan that the Black Water Tribe had no interest in ddling with the rger of those two tribes. However, in the future, the resources the New Tianyuan Tribe needed to contribute to the Black Water Tribe should still follow the previous rules.
As long as the New Tianyuan Tribe doesn’t cause any trouble, the Black Water Tribe couldn’t care less about whether they rge or not. As long as the resources are adequately delivered, other matters are irrelevant to the Black Water Tribe.
"Think tank Chang Yan, the reason I’ve co here is precisely to discuss this matter."
"To be honest, within the domain controlled by the Heavenly Origin Tribe, a large Divine Crystal vein has been discovered. This vein will produce a significant number of Divine Crystals in the future. Deputy Commander Wang Chunlin told about so previous rules; they’ve always been paying eighty percent of the vein’s revenue to the Black Water Tribe," Jing Yan said calmly to Chang Yan.
"Yes, those are the rules," Chang Yan nodded.
"I’ve co this ti to negotiate with the Black Water Tribe to establish a new set of rules. Paying eighty percent of the vein’s revenue is sowhat unacceptable. I propose that the percentage of the contribution be maintained at a more suitable thirty percent," Jing Yan stated directly.
"Oh?" Chang Yan’s eyes narrowed.
A sharp light flashed across his eyes as he glanced over Jing Yan.
Paying thirty percent of the vein’s revenue?
Haha, even paying seventy percent of the vein’s revenue, the Black Water Tribe is unlikely to agree. Yet this Jing Yan proposed to only pay thirty percent of the vein’s revenue.
Chang Yan scrutinized Jing Yan, wondering if this new leader made a slip of the tongue—perhaps intending to say they would keep thirty percent for themselves, but ended up saying they would only pay thirty percent?
