Since the bill was handed out, most of the joy of this banquet has faded.
The major sect leaders looked ugly, but Fairy Zixia only glanced at her lightly and remained silent.
"Great Elder, everyone has seen your sect's loss today. The amount on this bill is indeed correct and reasonable. But it's not easy for us. We also have disciples who have suffered losses at the foot of the mountain." Chang Ming Jian
Zong Li Chonghuan was embarrassed by his love.
Not to be shameless, but just too expensive.
"That's right. Our battle today is purely for the purpose of joining the Twelve Divine Palaces in the future. Eliminating Xie Changyuan will also eliminate the obstacles for the Divine Palace to enter the northern part of the Changsheng Continent. Shouldn't the Divine Palace provide some subsidies?" Wang Poxi
I also tried to fight for it.
Xiaozhi moved with emotion and reason, and what Li Chonghuan and Wang Poxi said was true, but the problem was that Cheng Fangshi couldn't listen.
He also showed a troubled expression.
"Everyone, I know all your difficulties, but I, Kong Ming Shanmen, sympathize with you, who will sympathize with us? The Twelve Divine Palaces? Those are all masters with supreme faith. Report this trivial matter.
, what will be lost is the face of our five major sects. If you enter in the future, you will be inferior to others. I hope you will consider the overall situation and understand."
Seeing that the bargaining failed, Wang Poxi and Li Chonghuan sighed and nodded.
Half a year ago, Xie Changyuan set foot in Yaowang Valley and Changming Sword Sect. There was almost no grass along the way, and the losses to property and elites were considerable. They wanted to spend whatever money they had on the reconstruction of the sect. They never thought that the empty mountain gate would be empty today.
The lion opened his mouth wide.
But what can we do? They are on someone else's territory, and there are masters of the golden elixir on the other side. If they don't agree today, they may not even be allowed out.
The two families compromised, Fairy Ziwei did not express her position, and Li Su of Xuanling Valley was left struggling for a long time.
He is still very young and may not be good at bargaining, but the things requested on the bill are exactly what he likes, and he is really reluctant to hand them over.
After thinking for a moment, Li Su said sheepishly.
"Elder Cheng, can we discuss something?"
Cheng Fangshi glanced at Li Su and seemed not to regard him as a person, but just smiled out of politeness.
"Master Li, please speak."
Li Su's surname was Li, and Li Chonghuan's surname was also Li. If they were both called Sect Leader Li, there would be misunderstandings. Therefore, Cheng Fang ten times called Li Su Sect Master Li. This small name may refer to age, or it may refer to something else.
Li Su was a little nervous, "Most of the conditions on this bill are acceptable, except for the tenth item, which states that one hundred eight-precious fairy chickens need to be provided to Kongming Mountain... Now our Xuanling Valley has less than nine eight-precious chickens."
Ten of them, and I happen to like to eat this immortal delicacy the most, can you...please replace it with something else?"
After he finished speaking, everyone present laughed. After all, he was just a young boy, and he actually opened his mouth to discuss it just for the sake of this little appetite.
Cheng Fangshi couldn't help but laugh out loud, and nodded in a good mood.
"Please forgive me, Little Sect Master Li. For such a small thing, you only need to replace it with items of the same price."
Li Su also laughed.
"How long are you going to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger?"
Li Su suddenly turned around and glanced at Fairy Zixia sitting next to her in surprise.
Fairy Zixia is extremely graceful, with a graceful figure and an alluring face that are breathtakingly beautiful. Even if she looks expressionless, she is still very charming in the eyes of ordinary men.
She put the bill aside casually and took a sip of wine as if she didn't take it seriously. Her red lips touching the wine glass showed an undeniable beauty.
But Li Su had no time to appreciate the fairy's appearance. What he cared about was what she just said.
However, no one present seemed to hear it, and Li Su soon smiled and continued to eat meat and drink.
He took off his chopsticks frequently and acted arrogantly in front of the table, as if he wanted to recoup the money lost on the bill, and this scene was exactly what everyone could see.
.....
Slowly, the topic at the banquet began to return to the right track. The reason why the five major sects gathered here was Xie Changyuan, and the reason why Xie Changyuan appeared was because of the Twelve Divine Palaces.
Everyone knows that the five major sects are about to follow the example of the Immortal Cultivating Sect in the southern part of the Eternal Life Continent and join the ranks of the Twelve Divine Palaces.
As the first sect in the north to join, they will definitely receive preferential treatment in the future.
"Master Zhaoshan, do you have any opinions on the Twelve Divine Palaces? Although we have heard of its reputation, we have not learned the details yet. If it is convenient for you, you might as well reveal some?" Li Chonghuan inquired.
Hearing this, Zhao Qiankun, who was sitting on the main seat, also hesitated for a moment, his expression inevitably a little complicated.
"I'm ashamed to say it, but I actually don't know much about it. But joining the Shrine is a long-term strategy."
Facing Zhao Qiankun's determination, everyone present pricked up their ears and straightened their backs.
Zhao Qiankun said seriously, "Nowadays, the spiritual energy of our Immortal Continent is getting depleted with each passing year, and the path to immortality for our monks is seriously blocked. The south is relatively good, but no monks in our north have ascended for hundreds of years. So far, I have only cultivated to the golden elixir.
It will be difficult to advance even half an inch further."
This sentence has touched everyone's heart. In the past, their five major sects were extremely glorious, and there were once strong people who ascended. But now, the general environment has changed, and they will not be able to become immortals in their entire lives. It can be said that the road ahead is
Worrying.
"The eastern soil is exhausted, and in the west, farther away from the Eternal Life Continent, a new continent is rising, and the Twelve Divine Palaces come from here."
"I don't know when or where, there were rumors that in a few decades, the Western Continent will develop into its heyday. At that time, the entire army will invade our Eastern Territory. They call this war -
colonial."
Hearing this, everyone in the lobby instantly became quiet, and you could hear a pin drop.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little depressing, Cheng Fangshi stood up again and comforted him.
"Fellow Taoists, don't panic. Aren't we all ready to join the Twelve Divine Palaces now? Soon we will also be members of the Western Continent camp. As long as Xie Changyuan's head is here, it will be unreasonable for the Divine Palace to give us preferential treatment.
This move now will benefit the future, and future generations like me will be grateful for the important decision made today."
After saying this, everyone present looked calm, and some even laughed.
"That's true. We can make huge profits from today's battle, and we will have no worries for future generations. Oh, by the way, where is Xie Changyuan's head? It's time to bring it up."
"Coming."
A voice sounded, and everyone's eyes turned to the door.
I saw Xie Changyuan's tall figure appearing at the door of the hall, striding straight towards him, holding three human heads in his hands, which were the elders of Kongmingshan who had gone down the mountain to collect the corpses.
