Novel Full Chapter 1431 Negotiation
Chapter 1431: Negotiation Chapter 1431: Negotiation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation “Don’t worry. This is a perfect solution, and everyone will be happy!” Beigong Hongtian said, “Each of us has something we want, including my Beigong family. Just hear me out, and I’m sure that you’ll accept my proposal.” “Although Venerable Immortal Qing Jian slaughtered thousands of members of your Soul Race, you don’t dare to take revenge!” “Instead, your hatred has been redirected toward Ye Shitian, and rightly so. However, due to the might of the Myriad Swords Palace, you still can’t take action.” “Incidentally, Ye Shitian needs the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Dragon Herb to cure his friend. Since this is the case, an opportunity has presented itself.” A wicked smile appeared on his lips and he finally revealed his plan. “Have the Soul Race open up the forbidden area and let Ye Shitian in!” “Allow him to challenge the Ten Thousand Soul Dragon Formation, but don’t interfere!” “If he defeats it, then he’ll obtain what he wants. However, if he’s killed by the formation in the process, no one can complain since he voluntarily decided to challenge the formation. The Myriad Swords Palace won’t be able to find fault with this, so long as there is no proof of interference.” The Myriad Swords Palace was indeed powerful, but now it was being targeted by the Hundred Immortals Palace and the Holy Dragon family. There was no way they had the time to bother about some ant like Ye Shitian so long as whatever happened was logical and reasonable. After all, who could blame the Soul Race if Ye Shitian decided to court death himself and challenge the Ten Thousand Soul Dragon Formation? Beigong Hongtian continued, “This situation should be beneficial to you. As for the job of connecting the two parties, that falls to the Beigong family. We will explain the situation to Ye Shitian and tell him that we fought for this opportunity, but the decision is his!” “Whether he goes or not is his business, but given his personality, he will definitely take up the offer, so it’s pretty much a done deal.” “Your Ten Thousand Soul Dragon Formation can even kill Dao Integration realm experts, let alone a mere Semi Divine realm cultivator.” “This plan is feasible. Very well.” The Soul Race’s ancestor nodded slightly and revealed a devilish smile. “Your Third Grand Elder thought this up, right? I can’t imagine this plan coming from someone like you.” “Hmph, if I wasn’t injured, I wouldn’t have to go through all this trouble to kill that little b*stard.” The Soul Race had stood tall in the Lingwu Continent for ten thousand years, and other than those from high-tier on top-tier forces, they could basically act like tyrants. However, they were now struggling to kill a weak ant from a low-level martial plane. How humiliating! The ancestor vowed to increase the strength of the Soul Race so that such a disgraceful thing would never repeat itself again. “So, what do you want out of this?” he asked as he stared at Beigong Hongtian. “Not much, just a spacetime artifact,” Beigong Hongtian said calmly, but he was actually extremely excited. When he broke through, he had used the last spacetime artifact in the family’s possession. It would take another 5,000 years before the next one was refined, so he had to seize this opportunity. “Impossible! We can only offer a ninth-grade Dao Integration-grade artifact!” The Soul Race’s ancestor rejected him very bluntly. “Take it or leave it. I can always come up with another plan.” “Hmph! Will you still have a chance to plot something else?” As soon as Beigong Hongtian said this, the Soul Race’s ancestor instantly stood up and looked at him warily. “Don’t misunderstand!” “Don’t worry!” Beigong Hongtian waved his hand gently, indicating for the ancestor of the Soul Race to sit down. “I don’t have the intention to start a war, and I don’t want to kill you either.” “It’s just that the Beigong family has spent so much effort to plan this, so giving me a ninth-grade Dao Integration-grade artifact is akin to giving change to a beggar.” He took a deep breath and revealed his trump card. “If you don’t agree, the Beigong family will protect Ye Shitian, and the Soul Race will never be able to touch him.” “We will even help Ye Shitian deal with the Soul Race.” “After all, the person behind Ye Shitian might also give us a Dao Integration-grade artifact. Although it might not be as valuable as the one you’re offering me, if we help Ye Shitian, we can suppress and weaken the Soul Race, which isn’t a bad trade-off for us.” Before he came, the Third Grand Elder had already briefed him on what to say and expect from the negotiation. If the Soul Race did not agree to their proposal, they might as well help Ye Shitian. “You!” “Are you threatening me?” The Soul Race’s ancestor had already mobilized the power of spatial laws around his body, but his face was extremely pale. “Think what you want, but the fact of the matter is I can help either side.” Beigong Hongtian showed no fear, and also unleashed his power, which surpassed that of the Soul Race’s ancestor. He said, “I know you have at least three spacetime artifacts, so it’s more than acceptable for us to request one as a reward for the trouble we’re going through.” “Although it will make you a little unhappy, this is your best choice!” “You…” “Very good, very good!” Although the ancestor of the Soul Race was unwilling, he did not refuse again. It was a heavy price to pay, but with veiled threats coming from the other party, he did not have any other choice in the matter. “Alright, you have a deal. Bring Ye Shitian here in three days!” “We will not intervene, and will let him challenge the Ten Thousand Soul Dragon Formation. In any case, he will die!” As soon as he finished speaking, the Soul Race’s ancestor threw out a blue-red dagger, which was a first-grade spacetime artifact!
