After receiving Ye Sheng's order, the fourth elder of the Qingyuan Sect and Yuan Zishan set out overnight.
Qingyuan Sect is still some distance away from Biyan Gate.
But for the fourth elder and Yuan Zishan, there was no way they could arrive in one night.
early morning.
When the first ray of sunlight shines on the top of the mountain where the spiritual liquid vein is located, or to be precise, it shines on the crooked-neck tree at the top.
Yuan Zishan and the Fourth Elder arrived.
The courtyard where the Red Wind Sect is located is already bustling with activity, and all the managers and disciples are preparing various things.
The time for the competition is set at noon.
This is the time calculated by the heads of both parties together.
The monks themselves also pay attention to the right time, place, people and people.
Among them, the weather comes first, so both sides are very particular about the time when the competition starts.
Before the competition, the Red Wind Sect needs to pay homage to its founder and pray for blessings.
This set of procedures is a fixed process, and there is a steward specifically in charge of this matter. Chi Yan only needs to come out and kowtow to worship at the last moment.
When the fourth elder arrived, Yuan Zifeng had been waiting in his courtyard early.
Along with Yuan Zifeng was Chi Yan, the head of the Red Wind Sect.
Chi Yan did not expect that things would develop to this point.
At first, when Yuan Zifeng told Chi Yan that a strong man had come to the Biyan sect, Chi Yan only thought that Yuan Zifeng did this deliberately because he wanted more benefits.
But when Chi Yan saw Yuan Zifeng's serious expression, he believed most of it.
After seeing the Fourth Elder and Yuan Zishan, Chi Yan finally realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Above the Jade Cauldron realm?"
In the hut, Yuan Zifeng informed the fourth elder and Yuan Zishan of the news he knew.
Chi Yan on the side was shocked when he heard what he said.
"How much price will your Biyan Sect have to pay?"
The fight for the spiritual liquid veins is essentially a business.
If you hire a monk who is too strong, you must pay enough.
Apart from anything else, Chi Yan actually doesn't want the Fourth Elder and Yuan Zishan to come here.
After all, hiring someone from the Qingyuan Sect comes with a price.
If you invite three people over, it will be a different price.
"No matter how much the other party pays, if you can get the mining rights of the spiritual liquid veins, it is better than getting nothing at all!"
Yuan Zishan said coldly.
Having seen through Yuan Zishan's thoughts, Chi Yan turned his head to one side to hide his embarrassment.
"Okay, Master Chiyan.
Judging from the current situation, the battle for the spiritual liquid mineral vein has become very complicated, so..." The speaker was the fourth elder, who had the highest status here.
Therefore, he will naturally take the lead in negotiating terms.
"The 30% mining rights discussed before are definitely not enough."
The fourth elder took a sip of the spiritual tea, and then his expression changed slightly.
The quality of this spiritual tea is really not high. If it wasn't in front of Chi Yan, he would definitely spit out this sip of tea.
"What do you mean, elder?"
Chi Yan didn't know the identity of the fourth elder. Yuan Zifeng on the side reminded him: "Call me the fourth elder."
After being reminded by Yuan Zifeng, Chi Yan changed his words: "I wonder what the fourth elders think?"
"Fifty percent!"
The fourth elder stretched out his right hand and made a gesture.
Hearing 50%, Chi Yan felt a pain in his body.
If he knew that so much would be taken away by the Qingyuan Sect at once, he might as well have a serious discussion with the Biyan Sect.
Maybe you can get this amount, and it won't be so troublesome.
Seeing the pain in Chi Yan's body, the fourth elder said slowly: "Actually, if you don't want to, we won't force you.
But the competition only requires Yuan Zifeng to enter, if he loses then.
If you don’t guarantee the spiritual liquid veins, you still have to pay us some extra for the hard work.”
Even if Chi Yan feels distressed now that the matter has come to this, he still has to do what the fourth elder said.
Just like he said before.
If they lose the fight, the Red Wind Sect will suffer losses to my grandma's family.
"Then everything will be according to what the fourth elder said."
After the conditions were negotiated, the fourth elder once again picked up the cup of tea that he didn't want to drink.
Upon seeing this, Yuan Zifeng said: "Chief Chiyan, don't you still need to be the abbot for the sacrifices ahead? We still have some things that need to be discussed here."
Chi Yan is also an understanding person.
So after shouting loudly, he retreated.
Wait until Chi Yan leaves.
The fourth elder directly poured the spiritual tea in the tea bowl on the ground.
"What kind of tea is it? It tastes so bad!"
Yuan Zifeng smiled and said: "The Red Wind Sect is a small sect after all, please forgive me, the fourth elder.
I haven’t been able to get used to drinking this low-quality spiritual tea these days.”
The fourth elder placed the tea bowl heavily on the table.
"Okay, let's not talk about the tea.
What is the origin of the seventh elder named Chentian?
Didn't you communicate with him privately?"
While speaking, the fourth elder waved his right hand, and a soundproof barrier appeared, covering the three of them.
"Fourth Elder, of course I will communicate with him about this kind of thing, but that person is not from our Northwest Territory, so I can't get in.
He also said..." Yuan Zifeng knew that the fourth elder had always acted steadily, but if he was pushed into a hurry, he would not stop fighting.
"If you have anything to say, just say it."
The fourth elder frowned.
"He also said that our Qingyuan Sect behaves in a dark way and is not like everyone else.
Say we have no morals."
Bang! The fourth elder slapped the table hard.
"No morals?
Does he dare to arrange our Qingyuan Sect at will?"
When the fourth elder was angry, his face turned red.
Yuan Zifeng saw his look and continued: "I reprimanded him in the same way last night, but after just one sentence, he was going to kill me."
"He dares to trick me, the Qingyuan Sect, and also threatens my Qingyuan Sect elder. No matter what his background is, I will definitely not let him off lightly this time!"
The fourth elder got up and walked around the room.
"Then Fourth Elder, are you going to play in person?"
Last night's experience has left a shadow in Yuan Zifeng's heart.
With the idea that the dead Taoist friends will never die and the poor Taoists will not die.
Yuan Zifeng wanted to let the four elders compete on stage instead of him.
but.
"No!"
The fourth elder waved his hand and refused.
"Rules cannot be broken. The news of the competition has been spread throughout the Northwest Territory, and many sects have sent people to watch the battle.
If I go up for you then, even if you win in the end, you will still be blamed."
Yuan Zifeng took advantage of the fourth elder's turn and looked at Yuan Zishan.
The look in his eyes was a bit malicious. He did not expect that the Fourth Elder would use such an excuse to excuse himself.
And this reason made him unable to refute it.
When the fourth elder looked at Yuan Zifeng again, he had already looked away.
"But Fourth Elder, I know I am no match for that person.
If I were to win, I would probably lose this contest.
It doesn't matter whether I live or die, but if I can't fight for the spiritual fluid mine, the sect master will definitely blame me when I return."
The fourth elder had long expected that he would say this, and said directly: "Don't worry about this, I have my own arrangements!"
