735 Mountain Peak Negotiation (2/2)

Looking up at the sky with his hands by his side, Zong Shou was in deep thought once more. He was unwilling to retreat but there was no benefit to continuing on. Maybe he should consider returning.

Thinking about it seriously for a while, Zong Shou shook his head. Before he left there was one last thing he had to complete.

He was about to step off when he felt the surrounding space twist.

His brow rose, eyes filled with surprise.

When the energy came over he actually didn't sense anything.

Just as he was thinking about that, he saw Shui Lingbo broke the world barrier and appeared in front of him.

Her face was cold and expressionless with no intentions to get close to him.

Just as Zong Shou was finding it weird, his pupils constricted. Not one but two people came over here.

The moment such a thought rose, a seven colored mirage gathered and spiritual energy wrapping around.

In just a moment, a twenty over years old Taoist appeared. He looked really young, face like white jade, dressed in Taoist attire and holding a horsetail whisk. It gave one a feeling like he was an ice jade covered in smoke; ethereal and dream-like.

”Yuanmeng greets Country Ruler!”

That person sized up Zong Shou before expressionlessly nodding his head.

In the next instance an extremely huge intent suppressed down on this peak.

Shui Lingbo nodded her head, ”Long time no see, has Ruler been doing well? Shui Lingbo greets you!”

Zong Shou's right hand instinctively gripped his sword. He went up against the Yuanmeng's intent as he looked over.

This is God Realm?

Yuanmeng? He had never even heard of such a person in the last life.

Even in the Illusionary Game Realm, he wasn't famous enough for him to know his name

If it was what he expected, it was the God Realm cultivator protecting Daoling Vast Habitat.

Although he formed an incarnation projection thousands of miles out, that vast suppression was terrifying.

He was too lazy to reply, staring right at his eyes and then grinning, ”Don't you know that I am fighting to the death with your Taoist Faction?”

Yuanmeng frowned, seemingly also feeling that he was unable to make Zong Shou yield through using intent. He looked towards Shui Lingbo. The latter was really calm, ”I came here for another matter. I met him coincidentally. If Senior Yuanmeng wants me to help with the peace talks, then please invite someone else.”

Zong Shou found it weird, what was going on with these two?

He heaved a sigh of relief. Looking at Shui Lingbo's situation, Common People Path wasn't threatened by Daoling Vast Habitat.

Yuanmeng scoffed coldly in unhappiness. However he didn't say anything and directly said towards Zong Shou.

”If Country Ruler is willing to return to Gantian and not step foot on Central Cloud Continent for three months, the Taoist Faction promises to not touch Donglin and Huizhou commoners for three years!”

There was no more probing tone, just a firm decisive one.

Zong Shou was furious, this Yuanmeng was really interesting.

Three years not to attack Donglin and Huizhou commoners.

Just three years and the promise didn't include him.

Actually it was a good thing to let the people under him get excluded from the fight between him and Taoist Faction.

However the time was just too short. His battle would be counted in the thousands and tens of thousands of years. Within it also didn't include what he wanted the most.

Apart from that, his tone made him feel really annoyed.

There was no smile at all on his face, his gaze like that of a knife.

”Then what if I am unwilling to return?”

”If you have any conditions, just raise it up.”

Yuanmeng seemed to have predicted that Zong Shou would ask that, shaking his head without bothering much.

”However, Ruler should just agree. During these ten thousand years, anyone who offended my Taoist Sect had never lived. Even if you are the most unrivaled talented person in the Cloud World. I don't think you will be able to take the wrath of my Taoist Faction!”

Zong Shou laughed, acting like he didn't hear Yuanmeng's threat.

”You can make me retreat! Thirty thousand Grade Nine mind stones to compensate my people. Within thirty years, you are not to harm my people. Lastly hand over all the people who participated in the killing and let me deal with them as I wish!”

When he heard the first condition, Yuanmeng pupils opened wide. The last sentence made his eyes open wide. The last sentence filled him with fury.

”Preposterous!”

That intent became sharper and sharper, ”You are a ruler but you don't know when to take a step back! I can give you five thousand Grade Nine mind stones but it isn't as compensation, it is as a charity. The second condition will be shortened to ten years. We won't attack you for ten years. As for the last one, I will act like I didn't hear it. If you agree then you can scram already...”

When he heard that veins popped out from Zong Shou's hand that was grabbing the sword. He calmed down and smiled.

”In other words, there is no room for discussion?”
