As soon as these words came out, everyone in the three sects was unhappy, but on the surface they were solemn and did not show it.
Jiang Yi had already expected it, but he was not annoyed and replied with a smile: "Fellow Taoist Xiang likes peace and quiet, so he will not come to such lively scenes. She is currently repairing in the ancient city of Siji. If Palace Master Li wants to see him, I can do it for him." Lead the way."
Li Yu pursed her lips when she heard this, and said concisely and concisely: "Thank you."
What you like about being quiet is just rhetoric. What the other party wants to see is just to take the initiative to see him.
The strongest man in Dongzhou should be so arrogant. If he were waiting for him here with the group of people in front of him, he would feel contemptuous.
Seeing his agreement, Jiang Yi raised an imperceptible arc at the end of his eyes, waved his sleeves and dropped a spirit boat, "Dianzhu Li, please."
Li Yu was not polite and went straight onto the spirit boat.
Jiang Yi and Yin Lu followed closely behind, while the others stayed behind. Since Xiang Shen said he liked purity, it was natural for him to put on a full show.
The wasteland was not far from Siji City, but within half an hour, the spirit boat stopped at the gate of the city.
Li Yu floated to the ground, raised his head and scanned the ancient door wall, his eyes were slightly stern, and there was a hint of vigilance.
"Master Li, there is no need to be nervous."
Jiang Yi put away the spirit boat and walked to his side, "This ancient city was destroyed thousands of years ago and fell into disrepair. Now there is only an empty shell left."
Li Yu glanced at Jiang Yi, and his words sounded like "there is no three hundred taels of silver here", but he was a brave man and didn't care, and immediately stepped into the city gate.
The central stone square was the site of a bloody massacre a hundred years ago, and has long been washed away by the years. Only a hint of dark brown can still be seen in the cracks of the stone.
Xiang Shu stood in front of the entrance to the Four Extremes Secret Realm, looking up at the two huge stone tablets and remaining silent.
Li Changting and Hei Tian stood aside, glancing at the stone tablet from time to time. They didn't know what Xiang Shu was looking at specifically.
Not long after, there were footsteps behind him.
Xiang Shu turned around and saw the middle-aged monk in coarse linen clothes.
Li Changting hurriedly came forward to pay homage: "Disciple Li Changting, pay your respects to Uncle Jade."
Li Yu nodded slightly and said calmly, "Get up."
It can be seen from the words alone that the two people are not close to each other.
Xiang Shen's eyes flashed, and he chuckled: "The visit of Palace Master Li really makes a bitter and cold place like Dongzhou shine brightly."
"I would like to express my praise to my fellow Taoist."
Li Yu said politely, secretly looked around Xiang Shu, and his heart suddenly shivered.
Mortal woman? No, it should be some kind of secret method to cover up the aura, but with his cultivation level, he couldn't even see through it.
He subconsciously put away his indifference and said slowly: "I have long heard Master Nephew Li mention that fellow Taoist is a female cultivator, but I never thought that fellow Taoist is so young."
Although he couldn't see through his cultivation, the aura of time could not be concealed by secret techniques. Xiang Yu's eyes were light and agile, with a hint of sharpness and no sense of vicissitudes of life.
From this it can be seen that this woman is definitely no more than 500 years old.
By following Shinto alone, one can reach the integration stage before the age of 500...
evildoer!
A flash of regret flashed in Li Yu's eyes. With such a talent, he actually practices the most unpromising divine method. How many geniuses and monsters have been buried in the Dongzhou Forbidden Land in these years?
"What's going on, Master Li?"
Xiang Shenqing smiled lightly, "Is it possible that you haven't thought about moving west yet?"
Li Yu came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "My sect has naturally made plans for the westward migration, and we just need to discuss it in detail with fellow Taoist Xiang."
"Palace Master Li should know that I am a casual cultivator."
Xiang Shu pointed to Jiang Yi, "I'm not good at negotiations between sects. If Palace Master Li doesn't discuss with Master Jiang Valley, I'll just sit in and listen."
After saying this, Xiang Shu waved his sleeves, and a set of simple tables and chairs appeared under the stone monument.
Li Yu did not sit down, but turned her head to look at Jiang Yi and asked, "Do you have any objection to what Jiang Valley Master said to fellow Taoist?"
Xiang Shu smiled slightly and said, "His words are my words."
"good!"
Li Yu immediately stopped hesitating, waved his sleeves and robe, and simply sat down.
Jiang Yi and the four others sat down immediately, their expressions solemn. Today's negotiation is related to Dongzhou's interests and is bound to be a bloodless confrontation.
Jian Xiu was decisive, and so was Li Yu. When everyone was seated, he went straight to the point: "Our sect has learned about your demands from the summons from Master Nephew Changting.
The master of our sect has made it clear that when the monks from Dongzhou go to Xizhou, the exit will be at the junction of the three sects. At that time, all the sects of the righteous path in Xizhou will come together to hold the entrance ceremony. You can choose your favorite sect by yourself.
If you don't want to join the sect as a disciple, no one will forcefully stop you, and you can leave freely. "
At this point, Li Yu's tone was low: "But after leaving, my sect can't control much about your safety."
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the three Yin Lu people behind Jiang Yi softened a lot. What they feared most was that after entering Xizhou, they would become chess pieces at the mercy of others.
Jiang Yi's expression remained unchanged. After pondering for a moment, he asked, "What if a monk follows us away from the sect's entrance ceremony?"
"On this point, you can rest assured."
Li Yu answered fluently, "Our sect will prepare a teleportation array for the ceremony. You can leave from the teleportation array and no one can trace your whereabouts."
Jiang Yi nodded, but his expression was not relaxed, but more serious: "We have seen your sincerity, can we talk about your conditions next?"
There is no free feast in the world.
He couldn't believe that the Wanmai Sword Sect arranged such a generous arrangement without any price.
When Li Yu heard what Jiang Yi said, he was somewhat impressed by him.
He showed a rare smile and nodded: "It is true that I, Zong Guang, invited the Xizhou sect to hold a grand ceremony, and the manpower and material resources expended are considerable. This is something that benefits Dongzhou, and you will naturally have to pay for it.
However, the leader of our sect remembers that you have been violated by the Pantheon for a long time and have limited resources, so we can use other things to replace the reward.
First, the rights to mine Dongzhou spirit stones have all been owned by me, the Ten Thousand Meridians Sword Sect, since the opening of the two-continent passage! "
As soon as these words came out, the faces of Yin Lu and the other three people changed slightly. The source of the spirit stone was the foundation of a sect. This Ten Thousand Meridians Sword Sect was like a lion!
Jiang Yi was silent for a moment, but nodded and said, "Okay."
"Master-uncle!"
Yin Lu suddenly became anxious. Before he could speak, Jiang Yi raised his hand to block him, "It doesn't matter, I know it well."
Yin Lu gritted his teeth and secretly resented that the Lingshi mine was gone, what else could he count?
She wanted to stand up immediately and point at Li Yu and scold him, but when she thought of the other party's cultivation level, she still fell silent.
Uncle Shi is so determined to enter Xizhou that he doesn't even care about his sect.
Although she knew that Xizhou's cultivation inheritance was intact and everything her uncle did was right, she still couldn't help but sigh in her heart when she thought of Baihua Valley falling apart.
Yin Lu didn't know that the real reason why Jiang Yi easily agreed was not the complete inheritance of Xizhou.
Xiang Shu had long told him that after Dongzhou lost half of the earth's core, the spiritual energy concentration had been declining, and the spiritual stone mine was also greatly affected.
It won't be long before the Dongzhou spirit stone mines will naturally disappear due to changes in spiritual energy, leaving very little that can be mined.
Knowing this, Jiang Yi felt no burden in his heart and could easily agree to Li Yu. His silence just now was just a pretense.
Li Yu naturally didn't know about Dongzhou's situation, so he was very happy when Jiang Yi agreed.
Obtaining the right to mine the Lingshi Mine was a blow to the bottom of the pot and cut off the Dongzhou Sect's path of retreat.
He originally thought this was the most difficult point to discuss, so he put it at the forefront and even thought of taking a step back. However, he did not expect that the other party would agree so decisively.
It seems that this negotiation can reach an agreement and open the channel in less than half an hour.
He struck while the iron was hot and continued: "It is indeed a wise move for you to offer the spirit stone mine. Not only will you avoid a fight, but if you join our Ten Thousand Meridians Sword Sect in the future, your spiritual stone monthly salary will be 10% more than others."
Jiang Yi forced a laugh when he heard this
, "Thank you very much for your generosity, Palace Master Li. Let's move on to the second condition."
"The following conditions are irrelevant."
Li Yu said in a relaxed tone: "First of all, the Lord of Black Sky Palace."
He glanced coldly at Heitian, who was standing aside with a pale face, "This person is useless if he remains in the hands of fellow Taoist Xiang. It is better to hand him over to our sect for torture to extract more information about the Pantheon."
Xiang Shen listened, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he replied slowly: "We can discuss this later. Fellow Taoist, you can continue to talk about other conditions."
Li Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, confused about Xiang Shen's attitude.
But now was not the time to think about it in detail, he could only follow Xiang Shu's words and continue: "The theory of the forbidden land of Dongzhou has been around for a long time, and our sect wants to explore the secret of Dongzhou.
You and other sects can hand over all records about forbidden areas and ancient cities in exchange for various cultivation resources, including elixirs and magic weapons.
In addition, after you leave, our sect will send a group of disciples to live here and maintain order. In the future, Dongzhou will be nominally an affiliated territory of the Ten Thousand Meridians Sword Sect. "
Li Yu smiled slightly: "This is also to protect Dongzhou. I believe you can understand."
Jiang Yi listened and was really silent this time.
To be honest, these conditions are not harsh. If Xiang Shen were not here, he might really understand them.
But if it's Xiang Shu... what Li Yu said is like pulling a tooth out of a tiger's mouth!
Fortunately, today's negotiation is part of Xiang Shen's plan. He can just listen to these conditions and he doesn't need to really consider the gains and losses.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yi inhaled slightly, "Palace Master Li, I don't think these conditions are harsh, but Dongzhou is not the place where I can say anything. It will take a few days to discuss. I don't know, Palace Master..."
Still want to discuss?
Palace Master Li frowned slightly and glanced at Xiang Shen. Seeing her smiling lightly and saying nothing, he could only nod his head and said, "Then I will stay for two more days."
In his opinion, today's negotiation was really smooth. Even if there were differences among the four people, as long as Xiang Shen did not raise objections, the objections would be quickly suppressed.
Li Yu estimated that the negotiations would come to a conclusion in at least two days.
With this in mind, he randomly picked a house in Siji City to live in.
This wait is seven days.
In the past seven days, Li Yu would ask Li Changting to inquire about the results every two days, but the news Li Changting brought back was that the Dongzhou Sect was either arguing or fighting.
Li Yu felt a headache after hearing this, "Then, fellow Taoist Xiang Yu, just leave it alone?"
Li Changting also sighed helplessly: "Didn't Senior Xiang Shu tell you earlier? She is a casual cultivator and will not get involved."
