_1 ng Ke’s sea of knowledge had been sealed.
At this point, she was an impotent immortal incapable of using spiritual Qi.
She certainly could not kill Lin Chen.
So, she could only fix Lin Chen with a vicious stare.
Lin Chen faced her with a gentle smile, neither angered nor irritated.
ng Ke glared for quite a while.
Seeing Lin Chen’s deanor, she nearly exploded with rage but was equally helpless against him.
She simply averted her gaze, closed her eyes, and refused to look at Lin Chen any longer.
Only when ng Ke had quieted down did Xi Junshan finally speak, “Special Envoy Lin, we really owe you for this.
Without your plan, our success would not have co so easily.
In fact, we might still be trapped inside.”
Lin Chen said with a laugh, “It’s not just my achievent alone.
If you didn’t attract all their attention, I might not have managed it either.
As for the upcoming negotiation, it’s up to you.”
Xi Junshan gestured to activate the sound-isolation technique before he spoke, “This situation has alerted Qinglong Palace.
I’m afraid the follow-ups won’t be minor.”
Lin Chen laughed, “Then let’s negotiate.
If it goes well, we sign a binding contract restricting both parties’ actions regarding this matter.
As for the conflict, the disputes between the Dragon clan and Human clan had never ceased.
No one can resolve it.”
Xi Junshan asked, “Regarding the negotiation, do you, Special Envoy Lin, have any advice?”
Lin Chen looked at Xi Junshan and chuckled, “What’s the Sect Master Xi’s opinion?”
Xi Junshan replied, “All our disciples must return safely.
Not one less.
This is the most basic.”
Lin Chen nodded, “Of course, they will certainly agree.
After all, we have not only captured ng Ke, but also these ten or so Golden Immortal Guards.
Not to ntion their identities, but in terms of combat power alone, they also hold the upper hand.”
Xi Junshan continued, “They must return the spirit vein to us and promise that the Azure Dragon Clan will not lay hands on it again.”
Lin Chen nodded and didn’t comnt, “Anything else?”
Xi Junshan replied, “They instigated the attack and killed several of our disciples.
They must make corresponding compensation.”
Lin Chen laughed, “We also killed quite a few of them in our attack this ti.
Including the three Golden Immortals I took down.
Well, during negotiation, you quote a high price and then reduce it.
We’ll see how it goes.”
Xi Junshan understood the implication behind Lin Chen’s words and laughed, “Right, we’ll discuss it as we go.
Special Envoy Lin, do you have any demands?”
Lin Chen replied, “I need so information about the Heavenly Dao Alliance.”
Xi Junshan understood imdiately.
As the Heavenly Dao Alliance opposed the Immortal Palace, and Lin Chen was a special envoy of the Immortal Palace.
Knowing that the Heavenly Dao Alliance was associating with the Dragon Clan, it was natural for Lin to take interest.
Although he was alone, he had the entire Immortal Palace behind him.
Once he obtained concrete information, the Immortal Palace would surely send soone to deal with the entire Heavenly Dao Alliance.
What Lin Chen asked for was simply his duty as a special envoy of the Immortal Palace.
“Okay, when the ti cos, Special Envoy Lin, you should state your requirents directly to them and negotiate together.”
Lin Chen nodded, “We need to be cautious these few days.
Let’s not have everything stolen from us.
Although ng Ke is in our possession, they probably wouldn’t do anything drastic.
However, it’s always right to be careful.”
Everyone rushed back to the gates of the Hundred Calamities Sect at the fastest speed.
The sect was put into a state of readiness, fully on guard.
Before long, Lin Chen and the others set out again towards the recently discovered spirit vein.
Ever since the spirit vein was occupied by the Dragon Clan following their last attack, if it wasn’t for the nurous sect disciples in the clan’s custody, the Hundred Calamities Sect would have already waged a war.
ng Panshi and others were already waiting there, accompanied by a beautiful woman in blue clothes emanating a cold elegance.
ng Ke and others were secretly guarded by two immortals and were not allowed to be present.
Only Lin Chen and six other immortals led by Xi Junshan participated in the negotiation.
Seeing Lin Chen and the others arrival, ng Panshi’s fighting spirit skyrocketed, “Where’s my niece!”
Xi Junshan responded with a smile, “She’s naturally in a safe place.
Once we settle our discussion, she will return.
I advise you not to take any rash actions.
Otherwise, the result could be fatalities, which is not what we want to see.”
ng Panshi sneered, “State your terms.”
Xi Junshan ntioned everything they had discussed earlier.
About the compensation, he boldly demanded a staggering amount.
After listening, ng Panshi scoffed, “You really are desperate.
You demand compensation, but didn’t you kill quite a few of us a few days ago?
Shouldn’t you also pay compensation?”
Xi Junshan responded, “The cause of this incident was your sudden attack on us.
You killed our sect elders and captured our disciples.
You should bear full responsibility.”
ng Panshi clenched his teeth but said nothing, instead he shifted his gaze to the woman in blue clothes beside him.
The woman in the blue dress smiled faintly and calmly said, “ng Ke isn’t worth that much.
Although the clan chief dotes on her, that’s a grandpa’s doting on his granddaughter.
He is not only her clan chief, he is the clan chief of the entire Dragon clan.
He can’t forget his position as clan chief just because of his granddaughter.”
Observing the calmly speaking woman in blue, Lin Chen felt a sinking feeling in his heart.
This woman was probably from Qinglong Palace.
Xi Junshan asked solemnly, “Who might you be?”
The woman in the blue dress replied, “ng Shuyu, ng Ke’s aunt.
I can make decisions on her behalf.
The price you are asking for is too high, we can’t afford to pay it.”
