Chapter 435 - 16: The Decision of the Ice Peak Camp (Part 2)
Chapter 435: Chapter 16: The Decision of the Ice Peak Camp (Part 2)
“Xiu Saiwei! We twelve are a whole; once a collective decision is made, you must join the battle!” The three rulers of Fenglei Sea immediately came out to rebuke angrily.
“After all, we are a whole.” Wugu Ancestor also spoke, being the only true body here, he had the most at stake.
Xiu Saiwei sneered, “If I don’t join the battle, what can you do to me?”
Ice Peak Ancestor watched this scene, feeling a headache as well.
The Ice Peak Camp, twelve undying beings, along with the other 26 ancestors. It seemed imposing! But precisely because the upper echelons were undying… they were very difficult to manage. Even the weakest, the three rulers of Fenglei Sea, were quite troublesome.
“Compared to the eight lords of the Cultivator Camp, they are evenly matched with us twelve. We also have 26 ancestors! Once the war officially starts, we have the absolute advantage. We can crush them like dry weeds and rotten wood, and even occupy a wider territory!”
“Teach the Cultivator Camp a lesson! Let them understand that an alliance with us, Ice Peak Camp, must be led by us!”
“You two fools, when the Cultivator Camp was weak, we were the leaders! But now they can even fight with the Innate Primordial Camp which comprises hundreds of ancestors, would they still fear us?”
“I haven’t invaded the Cultivator Territory, nor sought resources. My thoughts are clear, I definitely won’t join the battle!” A small figure finished speaking and then disappeared directly.
“Gone?”
“Pu Cheng actually left early?” The three rulers of Fenglei Sea were extremely furious.
“Shut up then.”
Ice Peak Ancestor glanced at the three rulers of Fenglei Sea, wanting to expel them from the ’Ice Peak Camp’, but because back then twelve existences from the Land of Eternity allied together, lacking sufficient reason, it wasn’t good to expel them directly.
“Pu Cheng left.” Ice Peak Ancestor scanned the surroundings, “His attitude is clear, he won’t join the battle. What about you all?”
“I also won’t join the battle.” Xiu Saiwei said, “Our Ice Peak Camp, like the Innate Primordial Camp, needs a lot of resources to grow the Life Core. But the eight lords of the Cultivator Camp focus on enlightenment. They don’t care about resources. I don’t understand why have a fallout over invading world groups.”
“The Cultivator Camp has always relied on us! Now they’ve become powerful and started turning against us?”
“I think it’s time for a fight. The ancestors who relied on us only enjoy the resources; it’s time to make them fight desperately.”
There were quite a few present wanting to start a war.
Ice Peak Ancestor felt quite a headache, quietly transmitted a message to Sha Zhou.
Beside him, the gray-clothed woman ’Sha Zhou’ glanced at Ice Peak Ancestor and looked around before speaking: “This war is meaningless, I won’t join!”
Suddenly, the hall quieted down.
Sha Zhou won’t join?
Sha Zhou and Starlight Lord rank among the top two in strength in Infinite Primordial Space. If Sha Zhou doesn’t join, and neither do Pu Cheng and Xiu Saiwei, this war could be lost!
The twelve undying beings, with the three rulers of Fenglei Sea at the bottom, yet the others were getting stronger.
Pu Cheng’s strength could match a Cultivator Lord! Hence, he dared to leave first, not giving face to anyone.
Xiu Saiwei’s strength could also rank in the top thirty in Endless Primordial Space.
“Pu Cheng, Xiu Saiwei, and eldest sister Sha Zhou won’t join the battle, I feel this war has no assurance, it’s not suitable to start a war.” Ice Peak Ancestor’s gaze swept over the surroundings, “Return all previously occupied world groups to the Cultivator Camp. Any opinions?”
No opposing voices arose from the hall.
…
“They’ve decided to retreat!”
Luo Feng and others were on their way, Starlight Lord suddenly spoke.
“Retreated?” Yuan showed a joyful expression.
To be honest, the lords were still very concerned about the numerous creature worlds in their territories. Most of the twelve undying beings in the Ice Peak Camp were belligerent! They didn’t care about the lives of the lower levels at all.
Xiu Saiwei and Pu Cheng were among the few who cared about their own clans! They also worried about full-scale war affecting their own clans.
“During negotiations with Ice Peak Ancestor later, follow my lead.” Starlight Ancestor could glimpse countless future possibilities, some of which once pushed almost certainly become reality.
“Okay.” Yuan nodded, trusting Starlight was the right choice.
Half a day later—
Led by Starlight Lord, the eight lords came together to the border area of the fallen territory.
On Ice Peak Camp’s side, six figures appeared, Ice Peak Ancestor and five others came to greet them.
“Elder brother Yuan, don’t be angry.” Ice Peak Ancestor smiled as he approached, “You said to start a war, after some intimidation. I barely managed to unify the internal opinions.”
“What opinion?” Yuan asked.
“Of course to return the occupied territories.” Ice Peak Ancestor said with a smile, “It’s unnecessary for our sides to go to war.”
“Just return them? I checked carefully, your Ice Peak Camp was quite ruthless, plundering wantonly, even devouring many Source World Origins.” Yuan said coldly, “Now just returning the territories, and you think it’s enough?”
Ice Peak Ancestor slightly frowned, feeling a bit unhappy.
Not going to war had his secret encouragement.
But he, Ice Peak Ancestor, also cared about face.
“What do you want?” Ice Peak Ancestor looked at Yuan.
“I don’t ask you to compensate much, return all resources plundered in the Cultivator Territory.” Yuan said, “Then the matter is settled! Otherwise, whoever robbed, I will rob back double!”
Ice Peak Ancestor nodded expressionlessly, “I can promise you.”
“Ice Peak.” Beside him, Wugu Ancestor and the three rulers of Fenglei Sea were somewhat anxious; they had seized the most, should they return it?
“I said, I promised.” Ice Peak Ancestor glanced at them, “Whoever is unwilling, negotiate with the Cultivator Camp yourself.”
Wugu Ancestor and the three rulers of Fenglei Sea could only endure.
Just them alone? Facing eight Cultivator Lords, they would be completely torn apart.
“Elder brother Yuan.”
Ice Peak Ancestor looked at Yuan, smiling slightly, “Your Cultivator Camp has changed.”
At least in facing Ice Peak Ancestor, the attitude had become much tougher than before!
“I also have to report to the other seven lords.” Yuan looked at Ice Peak Ancestor, “Believe Ice Peak you can also understand.”
“Understand.” Ice Peak Ancestor nodded.
The two looked at each other.
Both understood that some things had changed.
Soon, everyone from Ice Peak Camp left, and Wugu Ancestor, along with the three rulers of Fenglei Sea, would need to return all plundered resources shortly.
“Invading our Cultivator Territory, making them retreat and return the plundered resources, is already quite lenient.” Jin said coldly, “According to my temper, whatever they looted, we should counter loot ten times!”
“Our strength is still insufficient.” Starlight spoke, “Forcing them to return the plunder is already the maximum extent. Asking for more? With Ice Peak’s arrogance, they would certainly go to war! If he decides to go to war, Sha Zhou will definitely join.”
Luo Feng had just become a lord and hadn’t interacted much with Ice Peak Camp, only silently watching all this.
“No matter what, the Cultivator Territory of Three Thousand Six Hundred World Groups has been completely recovered.” Yuan showed a smile, looking at Luo Feng by his side, “Luckily Luo Feng broke through to become a new lord, otherwise, who knows what would happen to the Cultivator Territory.”
The other lords also felt good at the moment.
Until now, this war could be considered completely victorious!
