Chapter 2152: Negotiating
In the central part of the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan, Deva-Mara Kalpa lights shone out. Yang Xiao pulled a long face, Lin Feng was still closely following him. He demanded coldly, "Brother Lin, what are you doing?"
Lin Feng released more death Dao power around Yang Xiao, but he remained silent.
Yang Xiao glared at him coldly and then he disappeared again.
Now outside the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan, Yang Xiao rose up into the air above the clouds and stopped. He turned around, his eyes filled with murder. He was losing patience. He really wanted to attack Lin Feng. However, when he saw Lin Feng's face, he was too cautious. He wished he could steal Lin Feng's memories. He wanted to know what Lin Feng was thinking.
"Lin Feng, don't forget what Lei Dong Tian said, will you dare attack me?" said Yang Xiao coolly. He sounded a bit scared, too. He didn't know what Lin Feng was thinking…
Everything turned dark. Yang Xiao didn't go too far away, or he knew that Lin Feng could chase him and suddenly attack him. Deployment lights still surrounded his body. He slowly flew back to the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan.
—
After four hours, it was already night time. Yang Xiao was seated cross-legged in his quarters again, his eyes were closed and he was practicing cultivation. The hair on his neck suddenly bristled. He saw a dark silhouette standing in front of him. He was startled and furious, and couldn't control his Qi anymore. He shouted furiously, "Bastard, what are you doing!?"
Lin Feng glanced at him indifferently and turned around. He just stood there. Yang Xiao was going crazy. He had been calling Lin Feng Brother Lin Feng the whole time, but now he called him bastard. He was furious. He wanted to kill Lin Feng!
No, he's trying to infuriate me. He wants me to attack him, thought Yang Xiao, trying to keep calm. Even though he was furious, he tried to calm himself. Lin Feng wanted to force him to attack. However, why was Lin Feng so self-confident, to the point that he could stand there with his back turned to him?
Yang Xiao smiled coldly on the inside. However, he also knew he couldn't kill Lin Feng easily, so he had to remain vigilant. Of course, thanks to his special ability, he kept becoming stronger and stronger, he could rely on the memories he stole more and more with time. After breaking through to the Di Qi layer, he'd be able to steal the memories of the cultivators at the top of the Huang Qi layer!
Because he had such a terrifying power, he was always vigilant. Even in the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Government, he hadn't tried to steal Lin Feng's memories because he preferred being vigilant. He initially wanted Lin Feng to stay in the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Government, then join the Gan Ministry, and he would have joined hands with Great Emperor Zi and attacked him.
Now, however, Lin Feng could oppress him without saying anything. Yang Xiao was furious. He was trying to convince himself that Lin Feng wouldn't dare attack him, but as he thought that, Death intent surrounded him again! Would Lin Feng dare attack him suddenly?
"You're absolutely insane!" shouted Yang Xiao furiously. His Qi flared around him. He chopped down, and energies exploded out.
It alarmed many people in the fortress. Many people quickly rushed over and saw the two of them. What were these two doing?!
The crowd watched them coolly, nobody said anything. They knew that there were tensions between the two from what Lin Feng had said during the day. Yang Xiao's ability posed a threat to everyone. They had no reason to attack other people. However, everybody considered Yang Xiao's ability dangerous, so even if Lin Feng attacked him, nobody would say anything.
Lin Feng kept oppressing Yang Xiao. At the same time, the members of the Pellet Kings Clan were still in a palace of the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan, talking with people from the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan.
——
"Brother Lei, you should be satisfied, it's only an emperor. People from the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan don't even need to help, they just need to agree," said Wang Shi's grandfather at that moment.
However, the person who seemed to be the leader of the group of people from Lei Dong Tian's clan remained silent, just listening. Wang Shi's grandfather wanted that emperor, but the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan's strong cultivator had doubts. What was his goal? Was it really only because of tensions?
Who was willing to give up three extremely rare sets of Ancient Holy Scriptures, including some formidable fire control scriptures? The members of the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan didn't believe it was possible.
The members of the Pellet Kings Clan couldn't possibly be willing to pay such a high price for an emperor they wanted to kill. Besides, the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan wasn't friends with the Pellet Kings Clan, so the latter could hardly be willing to help the former become stronger.
"Dong Tian, what do you think?" the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan's lead cultivator of Lei Dong Tian calmly.
"I brought Lin Feng to the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan. Many people were there during the battle. And Because Wang Shi was too self-confident, he made his brother fight against Lin Feng. I promised I'd protect Lin Feng if he won and didn't die. I can't go back against my words. If we hand him over, people will think our word is worthless," replied Lei Dong Tian calmly.
When Wang Shi heard that, he pulled a long face. Indeed, he had been too confident and had agreed to bet.
When the members of the Pellet Kings Clan heard that, they also grimaced. Wang Shi's grandfather said, "I know it would put you in a difficult situation, so the Pellet Kings Clan is willing to prepare a level seven body cleansing Great Imperial pellet for you. You're probably happy to hear that, right?"
When the members of the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan heard that, they were stunned. A level seven Great Imperial pellet? Even for the Pellet Kings Clan, that was a priceless pellet, so for Lei Dong Tian, it was even more astonishing. For many emperors, using such pellets was a waste, even some Celestial Emperors couldn't benefit from such pellets to the fullest. They were definitely trying their best!
"No wonder that the Pellet Kings Clan is a king clan in Godly Clouds City," said the lead cultivator of the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan with a knowing smile. After having remaining silent for a few seconds, he said with a flat smile, "Dong Tian is an outstanding young man of the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan. His face is like ours; if he loses face, the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan loses face."
He went silent, but didn't expel their guests. He wanted to obtain even more. He was now ready to negotiate. The members of the Pellet Kings Clan understood what that smile meant.
They weren't willing to pay such a price for what they wanted, but the members of the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan knew that the members of the Pellet Kings Clan really wanted Lin Feng. What was their ultimate goal?
At that moment, Wang Shi's grandfather said coldly, "Since the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan isn't ready to accept, we can only rely on ourselves. We'll be off. Goodbye."
They stood up, turned around, and started to leave.
"Get ready to bring Lin Feng to the four influential groups and protect him on the way. Delays may bring more unexpected troubles. New problems could crop up unexpectedly," said the lead cultivator of the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan indifferently. The members of the Pellet Kings Clan suddenly stopped, their faces twitching.
"I'll tell you the truth. Even though he killed Wang Jie's physical body, his soul hasn't been destroyed. We came here for revenge, but also for Wang Jie's soul. But we can't pay more than that. If you are really not willing to accept our proposition, I am willing to give up. After you send him to the four influential groups, we'll go there and we'll pay the price to get Wang Jie's soul!" Wang Shi's grandfather said flatly.
They would find a way to get Lin Feng!
"I see," said the strong cultivator of the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan. He understood now. Wang Jie's soul hadn't been destroyed. He could understand their point of view. They had already tried all they could though.
"What you just said, plus the level seven Great Imperial pellet. We must do the trade now, and you can't attack him on our territory. You must first leave."
"What if he destroys Wang Jie's soul?" asked a cultivator of the Pellet Kings Clan, turning around.
"If he wanted to, he would have done it before. That's all we can do."
Everybody remained silent at that moment. They had found a compromise. The last step was to be made. Lin Feng had to be brought to them from outside.
"Alright!" the cultivator of the Pellet Kings Clan nodded. They were ready to pay a very high price for Wang Jie. They were willing to make this deal.
Lin Feng didn't know the two clans were discussing these things. He wanted to turn Wang Jie into a Demon Puppet. He had kept Wang Jie's soul for his own benefits. But he was unaware of the fact that the Pellet Kings Clan definitely knew that Wang Jie's soul hadn't been destroyed, and that for that reason, they could come to the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan. It was also for their own benefits!
People usually did all they could for their own benefits!
