“Could it be that you’re afraid of the other party’s strength?” The first elder of the Hong clan was surprised. Although the other party was most likely from the divine realm, it was not as if the two clans did not have any backers in the divine realm. He could not understand why the Yan clan would be afraid of the other party’s strength.

“Of course not. I’ve said it before. We owe them a debt of gratitude.” The Yan clan’s first elder said in a light voice.

“What kind of favor?” The first elder of the Hong family asked, unwilling to give up.

“Please forgive me for not being able to comment. First elder Hong, we only need to talk about the compensation. You don’t need to worry about anything else.” The Yan clan’s first elder did not want to talk about this issue anymore, so he directly said.

“As for compensation …” The first elder of the Hong family had only said a few words before he was interrupted again.

“Not a single cent less.” The Yan clan’s first elder reminded with a smile. He was in a good mood.

“Great elder Yan, don’t push me too far. If you push me too far, I’ll invite the people from the main family of the divine world. Let’s see what you’ll do then.” Seeing that the soft approach didn’t work, the Hong family’s first elder could only use the hard approach.

“Hehe! Is first elder Hong threatening me? I’m so scared!” Yan tribe’s first elder pretended to be afraid and then snorted,”Hmph! You know to ask the main family to support you, but do you think I don’t know? Originally, I didn’t want to alarm the main family, but if you want the main family to know that we’ve caused such a ruckus, then you can go ahead and invite them. ”

Although the Yan clan had a main family in the divine world, the main family was still the main family. Other than the fact that they had to hand over a certain amount of items to the main family every hundred years in exchange for resources that were not available on the divine continent, they were basically self-sufficient. If they provoked a strong enemy, not only would the main family not stand up for them, but they might even abandon them. This was one of the main reasons why they were kind to others and were unwilling to make enemies.

Although the great elder of the Hong family had used the main family in the divine realm to threaten them, he believed that the Hong family in the divine realm would not easily meddle in the affairs of their branches. Unless there were enough benefits, the people of the main family might still be willing to stand up for them. However, the appetites of the people of the main family would definitely not be less than them. Therefore, he believed that as long as the great elder of the Hong family was not stupid, he would not be willing to disturb the main family.

The truth was just as the Yan clan’s first elder had expected. The Hong clan’s first elder was indeed unwilling to alert the main clan because of this matter. The reason he had brought the main clan out was just to scare the other party. However, the Yan clan’s first elder did not fall for it! This made him extremely depressed.

Seeing that the Hong clan’s first elder was silent for a long time, the Yan clan’s first elder slowly opened his mouth and said,””First elder Hong, I know that you feel that we’re asking for too much and that your heart is aching! However, you didn’t even think about it. If we take these things away, the debt between us will be settled. In the future, as long as your Hong clan doesn’t take the initiative to provoke us, our Yan clan will naturally not provoke you. ”

“But if you let the main family know about this, the benefits of them standing up for you will not be less than the compensation we want. Moreover, can you guarantee that they will be satisfied just once? “The main family’s appetites are much bigger than ours. This time, in order to treat the family head’s injury, I don’t know how many good things I’ve sent to the main family. Until now, there has been no news from the main family. If I’m not wrong, I’m afraid that all the things I’ve sent have gone to waste. Do you want to be like me?”

“I think it’s better for us to solve this matter ourselves. Our Yan family spent a lot of money to treat master’s injury, and you were the one who caused it, so you can’t deny the compensation. If you think that it’s not a loss to invite the main family to deal with us, then I have nothing to say. Goodbye! If you’ve made up your mind, then come and find me!” The Yan clan’s first elder said earnestly, and then left without looking back.

Looking at Yan clan’s first elder’s back, and then at the silent first elder, elder Shan couldn’t help but say,””First elder, what do we do now?”

“Elder Shan, what’s your opinion?” The first elder of the Hong family had no one to discuss with, so he asked elder Shan.

Elder Shan was extremely excited when he heard first elder’s question. The great elder actually asked for his opinion. This was really like the sun rising from the West. One should know that in the eyes of the Hong family’s master and the elders, he was a brainless person. Therefore, they would not discuss anything important with him. However, he did not expect that the great elder, who had always looked down on him, would actually ask for his opinion. He was so excited that he was speechless.

“Elder Shan, what’s your opinion?” Seeing that elder Shan’s face had turned red and he did not speak for a long time, the great elder could not help but repeat loudly. In his heart, he was scolding him. What a shameful thing. He asked him for his opinion but he could not say a word for a long time. He was very angry, so he naturally did not think that elder Shan was so excited that he could not speak.

“Argh! The great elder! You should ask for my opinion!” Elder Shan, who had finally reacted, said in a daze.

“Nonsense, I’m asking you, of course!” The first elder of the Hong family said in an unpleasant tone.

“Great elder! I feel that the old man from the Yan clan’s words aren’t without reason. The main clan is indeed a bottomless hole that can’t be filled. Unless you decide not to care about the life and death of the clan head and the others, we can’t not pay this compensation! First elder, money is just a worldly possession. As long as the family head and the others are safe and sound, what’s the big deal with losing some money? After a hundred years or so, our Hong family will be able to recover its strength. However, if we really invite the main family, I really don’t dare to imagine what kind of consequences that would be. Of course, if you are like the family head and have the intention of destroying the Yan family, then please ask the main family to send someone over!” Elder Shan thought for a moment before speaking in a very serious manner.

His words made the first elder of Hong family, who had always looked down on him, cast a sidelong glance at him. Suddenly, the first elder looked at elder Shan in a different way, because he had never dreamed that elder Shan could say such philosophical words. It was really beyond his expectation.

Seeing that the great elder had not spoken for a long time and only stared at him, elder Shan was a little afraid. Did he say something wrong, so the great elder was a little angry? Sob … He was just spouting nonsense.

At the thought of this, elder Shan pulled a long face and said with some fear,””Great elder, don’t be angry. I’m just talking nonsense. Just treat it as my words are farts.”
