Bab 251: Refusal

"We asked you for the bottom line of the minimal offer that we could build upon, but I have to admit, your requests are already over the top."

I didn't need to wait for the ascending wisdom sect elder to realize the implications behind my words and respond accordingly. I guess there was a reason why his sect bore wisdom in its very name!

"It's all about the ratio of profits and losses. I'm don't want you to go to war with them. All I need is a proper shield that won't falter if they offer something that could overshadow my worth in the short term. Thinking about it, aren't your sects just a step that every cultivator needs to use before finally embarking on the real road of cultivating?"
