Upon hearing Shen Yuzhou's words, the entire conference room fell silent.
Due to being part of the Human Camp, mutual cooperation is common among each faction. Thus, negotiations between major Sanctuaries generally use more tempered language.
Using such intense wording like Shen Yuzhou did is indeed rare.
This also indicates that the actions of Qiu Tu and Princess Xi have indeed caused significant backlash from other Sanctuaries.
As Shen Yuzhou's words fell, the reception hall beca silent.
Princess Xi sat at the main seat, intensely restraining her gaze from drifting towards Qiu Tu, yet she couldn't help but glance at him to observe his reaction.
Qiu Tu sat upright, eyes set straight, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
Female commander Li Feng, her almond-shaped eyes falling upon the two, held a deep interest.
Thus, the reception hall remained silent for a full three to four seconds, Princess Xi saw that Qiu Tu hadn't spoken up, she then coughed lightly and said authoritatively, "Chairman Shen, your words are exaggerated."
"It seems like the other major Sanctuaries have so misunderstandings about our Seventh Sanctuary."
"All our actions this ti were reasonable and legal."
"As the Lin Family is one of the four founding families of the Seventh Sanctuary, it inherently has the foundation to rule over the Seventh Sanctuary."
"Upon becoming the Lin Family Head, I imdiately requested to return to the Elder Council of the Seventh Sanctuary."
"It was the Zhao family and the Han family that violated the oath established at the beginning of the Sanctuary, which led us to initiate military action."
At this point, Princess Xi paused, then said sternly, "As for collaborating with the Evil God, it wasn't us, but the Zhao family and the Han family."
"Recently, we've fully docunted the fact that both families colluded with the Evil God, joined the 'Fog Hidden Association,' and betrayed human intelligence, and sent these records to the major Sanctuaries."
"I believe you all must have seen it."
"So....what you just ntioned, I cannot accept."
The most avoidable thing in a negotiation is following the opponent's line of thinking.
If Princess Xi inquires about their conditions, she would imdiately fall into a disadvantage.
Only by refuting the opponent's argunts could one bring the negotiation back to one's own pace.
However, Princess Xi is a skilled politician, and Shen Yuzhou is not weak either.
The face behind his monocle slowly beca expressionless.
He looked at Princess Xi sharply and spoke directly, "President Lin. I am not here to play politics with you, neither Tai Chi nor word gas."
"This is the final ultimatum."
His voice was powerful, eyes sharp as a knife, "Although you've used many ans to make this coup appear legitimate, everyone knows it's just a façade."
At this, he stopped looking at Princess Xi and turned to Qiu Tu, saying, "Elder Qiu, do you intend for Princess Xi to continue standing front and negotiate with us?"
Shen Yuzhou's words made the reception hall quiet once again.
Princess Xi bit her lip, then turned her head to look at the side at Qiu Tu.
The girl resembling Shen Lingshuang, as well as female commander Li Feng, couldn't help but look toward Qiu Tu.
Suddenly targeted by everyone's gaze, Qiu Tu's expression remained unchanged.
He casually lifted his teacup, took a sip, and then inquired, "Does the Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth Sanctuary plan to impose so restrictions on us? Make so demands?"
"May I ask what restrictions and demands they are?"
Today, Shen Yuzhou wore a stylish black suit, skillfully tailored. His hair was slicked back neatly. At first glance, he exuded an aura of sternness and solemnity.
Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, his eyes darkened like cold stars in the night sky, shining with icy light.
He slowly spoke, "To prevent similar occurrences at the Seventh Sanctuary again, our major Sanctuaries demand the establishnt of a 'Special Envoy' position at the Central Hub of the Seventh Sanctuary."
"To be appointed by our four major Sanctuaries."
"The Special Envoy has the power to participate in governnt affairs and Elder etings, and supervise major decisions in the Seventh Sanctuary."
"In the Seventh Sanctuary, the treatnt of the Special Envoy is equal to that of the number two leader. However, they won't be subject to the Seventh Sanctuary's law jurisdiction."
"No matter the issue, they can only be sent back to their Sanctuary for interrogation and punishnt."
Hearing this, Qiu Tu's face showed no reaction, but Princess Xi's expression slightly changed.
But that's not all. After discussing the 'Special Envoy,' Shen Yuzhou continued, "Additionally, to prevent such malignant coups at the Seventh Sanctuary again. Also to unify humanity during the Era of Disaster and avoid internal strife."
"Our four major Sanctuaries require that changes in the Elder-level positions at the Seventh Sanctuary must be confird by us to take effect."
Qiu Tu slightly nodded. Princess Xi's face was beginning to look unpleasant.
Shen Yuzhou seed unaware of Princess Xi's expression.
'Establish a position similar to "supervision"?'
'Require the changes in head-level positions at Seventh Sanctuary to be approved by the Third, Fourth Sanctuary?'
'Demand a certain amount of Cataclysmic Material and Cataclysmic treasures as military funds?'
'Demand the opening of autonomous regions controlled by the Third, Fourth Sanctuary?'

1500-2500-One hour ago, when kissing Larilo, Qiu Tu realized that the Evil God… seems a little different from ordinary humans.
Their lips and bodies seem softer? More tender? Hotter in temperature?
