C255 Negotiation
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao smiled. He patted Peng Juyi's shoulder and said, "Vice Sect Leader Peng, don't worry. I won't hurt you! The Great Spring Dynasty and the Sky Wood Cliff are allies. I won't kill you. I just want to use you to negotiate with your Sect Master!"
"Shameless!"
Peng Juyi spat at Lin Xiao and scolded him in a low voice.
Lin Xiao just shrugged his shoulders indifferently. Speaking of shamelessness, it was the Sky Wood Cliff who was the first to be shameless. Lin Xiao was only using the same tactic to take revenge on the Sky Wood Cliff!
Peng Juyi and Mu Tianliang were both Vice Sect Leader of the Sky Wood Cliff. Their status in the Sky Wood Cliff was very high. As Golden Immortal Stage Expert, it was imaginable how useful they were.
Lin Xiao didn't believe that the Sky Wood Cliff wouldn't give in!
In fact, the Sky Wood Cliff was in a mess right now. All the Elder in the Sky Wood Cliff were gathered together, discussing about this matter.
"Sect Master, the investigation has been done! Vice Sect Leader Peng seems to have fallen into the trap of the Great Spring Dynasty's new emperor. He has also been caught!"
"What should we do now? We have to save the two Vice Sect Leader! "
"Sect Chief, let's attack together and destroy the Great Spring Dynasty!"
"Right! The Great Spring Dynasty has always been against us. We have tolerated them for long enough!"
...
The Elder spoke one after another. Their tone was filled with anger towards Great Spring Dynasty.
After all, as two neighboring powers, there would inevitably be conflicts between the Great Spring Dynasty and the Sky Wood Cliff. These conflicts had already existed before Lin Xiao took control of the Great Spring Dynasty. Lin Xiao capturing Peng Juyi and Mu Tianliang was just a fuse.
Mu Tianxuan was the Sect Master of the Sky Wood Cliff. Mu Tianxuan frowned when he heard the words of the Elder. He said, "I understand what everyone is trying to say. I also want to rush to Tianquan City and rescue Tian Liang and Juyi. But things are not as simple as you think! Have you all forgotten about Wang Batian's death? He is a Third Level of the Golden Immortal warrior, but he died in Lin Xiao's hands. Lin Xiao must have some unknown magical equipment in his hands. We cannot act rashly! "
"But are we going to let him imprison the two Vice Sect Leader in Tianquan City?"
Upon hearing Mu Tianxuan's words, one of the elders immediately raised an objection and continued, "Are we going to abandon them?"
"Of course not!"
A bright light flashed across Mu Tianxuan's eyes. He swept his gaze across the Elder and continued, "Then I will personally make a trip to Tianquan City!"
...
With Mu Tianxuan's cultivation, it would only take him a day to arrive at the Tianquan City.
"Your Majesty! The Sect Master of Sky Wood Cliff, Mu Tianxuan, requests an audience!"
Lin Xiao was sitting on the throne, handling all the major and minor matters of the Great Spring Dynasty. When he suddenly heard the report from his subordinates, he raised his eyebrows in surprise.
He was very sure that someone from the Sky Wood Cliff would come, but he never thought that Mu Tianxuan would come personally!
During this period of time, through the information of the Hall of Nine, Lin Xiao had gained a deeper understanding of the Sky Wood Cliff's system, and he had a very deep impression of Mu Tianxuan.
This was a ruthless man!
Even if Mu Tianxuan didn't have a Fifth Stage of the Golden Immortal Stage cultivation, just the fact that he had led the Sky Wood Cliff from a small power to one of the ten major powers, or even the fourth ranked ten major powers, it was enough to tell that he wasn't a simple man!
Putting down the memorial in his hand, Lin Xiao instructed his servant. "Let him in!"
Very quickly, Mu Tianxuan strode into the hall. Lin Xiao also went forward to welcome him and said with a smile, "Master Mu, you have come personally. It has truly brought honor to the Great Spring Dynasty!"
"Humph! Let's skip the pleasantries!"
Mu Tianxuan looked at Lin Xiao and smiled coldly. He said straightforwardly, "I am here to pick up Juyi and Tian Liang. Tell me, what are your conditions?"
"You are such a straightforward person! Then I'll just say it!"
Since Mu Tianxuan had already started to negotiate, Lin Xiao would not be polite to him. Lin Xiao said straightforwardly, "My condition is very simple. First, Sky Wood Cliff must return the southern region of Great Spring Dynasty that has already been occupied! Secondly, you must help the Great Spring Dynasty with something!"
Originally, he only had one condition.
However, after he captured Peng Juyi, he had two Golden Immortal Stage warriors as hostages. Naturally, he would be able to get more benefits. Furthermore, this condition was also very necessary!
Mu Tianxuan raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He said without batting an eyelid, "We can return the southern region to you, but we need to keep the Qingshui Pass!"
"That won't do!"
Lin Xiao refused decisively. "The Qingshui Pass is the only natural chasm in the southern region of Great Spring Dynasty. " If I give the Qingshui Pass to you, the southern region will fall into your hands sooner or later! "
"Are you questioning my character?"
When Mu Tianxuan heard Lin Xiao's words, he frowned unhappily and said coldly, "Fine! I will return the Qingshui Pass to you. But don't blame me for giving you back a piece of ruins when the time comes!"
This...
Lin Xiao was speechless when he heard this.
What was the use of having a pile of ruins? If that was the case, even if he withdrew the Qingshui Pass, Great Spring Dynasty would still suffer heavy losses. Because if he wanted to rebuild the Qingshui Pass, he would need a huge expenditure!
However, Mu Tianxuan did not seem to be ready to give in.
Lin Xiao could not help curling his lips and changing the topic, he continued, "We will discuss the matters of Qingshui Pass in the future! Why don't we talk about another matter first?"
"You want me to help you deal with Ming Hun?"
Mu Tianxuan looked at Lin Xiao and asked plainly.
Ming Hun was the Sect Master of Netherworld Sect. His strength had reached the Third Level of the Golden Immortal, which was higher than Yang Jian's by a level 1. With Yang Jian's strength, he was afraid that Yang Jian might not be able to defeat him. However, if Mu Tianxuan attacked, then victory was guaranteed!
Hearing Mu Tianxuan's words, Lin Xiao looked at him in surprise and said with a smile, "Everyone in the world says that you are a strategist. It is indeed true!"
In fact, what Lin Xiao wanted to say was indeed this.
This time, the three allied forces were going to deal with the Great Spring Dynasty. The Netherworld Sect had suffered heavy losses, and almost all of their men were killed. Even Ming Xue, the Great Elder, had died in this battle.
Given the nature of the Netherworld Sect, they would never let this matter rest. They would definitely seek revenge!
Logically speaking, the culprit should be the Thirteenth Floor. After all, it was the Thirteenth Floor who had suddenly rebelled. The one who had ambushed Ming Xue was Third Floor Master of the Thirteenth Floor.
If it wasn't for the Thirteenth Floor, the Thousand Feather Sect wouldn't have been forced to surrender, and the Netherworld Sect wouldn't have fallen to such a state.
However, the Thirteenth Floor had two Golden Immortal Stage Lord of Floor and a Golden Immortal Stage Great Elder, which was not something the Netherworld Sect could deal with. Therefore, it was very likely that the Netherworld Sect would deal with the Great Spring Dynasty first.
