Upon hearing Eternal's words, the Deputy Sect Master frowned, "Are you proposing a negotiation?"
"Yes indeed, that was my intention," responded Eternal with a friendly laugh.
"Our sect master cannot attend, I'll represent him," hurriedly declared the Deputy Sect Master.
Eternal roared with laughter, "If your sect master cannot attend, it shows that Cloud Sect feels no responsibility towards the people of this world. In that case, we in North Plain will simply have to align ourselves with Cloud Sect."
This extremely cunning statement passed the pressure onto Cloud Sect.
"I agree!"
At this point, Leroy Rhodes stood up and spoke.
Eternal nodded slightly, then said, "Very well, we'll meet in Eternal City three days from now."
After leaving these words behind, Eternal hurriedly left the room.
Only after he departed did Kingsley Kelley manage to breathe a sigh of relief, massive beads of sweat rolling off his forehead.
