Cultivating Immortality in the Winter Wasteland.

Chapter 690 Tea Room Meeting
The fifth district, an ordinary teahouse.

This teahouse is located in a wealthy area and the rent is expensive, but business has never been good. For some unknown reason, it has never attracted any people.

But today there are many guests in this teahouse.

If others knew that all the demigods of Mingzhou were gathered here at this moment, they would probably be shocked.

Everyone sat down at this time.

There was a young and somewhat shy guy pouring tea for these big guys.

He looked at Chen Wang curiously.

Li Xiuyuan said: "This is the old Longjing tea. This kind of tea is not easy to grow nowadays. I don't know why it can't survive. You can try it."

There was no special aura about Li Xiuyuan, he looked just like a normal teahouse owner.

Everyone picked up their teacups and sipped them.

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "That's right. There is always a solution to any problem. How did things get to this point? Let's talk about it."

Zhou Tianqing had a broken arm at this time, and although he had received treatment, it was still difficult to recover.

He stared at Chen Wang intently.

Chen Wang looked at Zhou Tianqing and said calmly: "Fuck your mother, you are such a jerk!"

As soon as these words came out, the tea of ​​two big guys sprayed out of their mouths immediately.

This young man is so aggressive when he opens his mouth.

Zhou Tianqing slammed the table, stood up, and said coldly: "Chen Wang, you still dare to act rashly!"

Chen Wang sneered, "Coward."

He only said two words, and Zhou Tianqing's face turned red and his eyes were fierce.

An old man laughed and said, "No need, no need, Old Zhou, you are old, so calm down and don't argue with a young man."

Two more people came out to act as peacemakers and only then were they able to barely pull Zhou Tianqing down.

The old man looked at Chen Wang and said, "Chen Wang, you don't have to be so angry."

This old man was the one who had spoken with Li Xiuyuan earlier. His name was Xu Lanting.

Chen Wang said, "I was just traveling in the wilderness, and they were the ones who tried to ambush me. You can't blame me for this."

Zhou Tianqing said: "You know what you have done. The two high priests in the wilderness, Jin Jiuhan, died in your hands. Are you trying to rebel?"

Chen Wang laughed dumbly: "Jin Jiuhan and I have a grudge. I only want to kill him. I have already told you about this. As for the two high priests, they were invited by Jin Jiuhan to help and come together to kill me. I should be there to stretch my neck and let them kill me."

What Chen Wang said was indeed the truth, and everyone was silent for a while.

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "Everything is very clear. There's no need to beat around the bush. Let's get straight to the point."

"I have discussed this with you all. We cannot allow any more deaths. Stability is the most important thing in this era. There is no need to fight to the death. This is not the era of cold weapons. Why bother?"

Zhou Tianqing, Long Yan and others who had previously besieged Chen Wang fell silent at this moment.

Li Xiuyuan's meaning was very clear. Although Li Xiuyuan was pushed to speak, this was also the intention of others.

Long Yan pondered and said, "It's easy to stop now, but who can guarantee that Chen Wang won't retaliate later?"

"As I say, we can kill him right here together, cleanly and efficiently."

Chen Wang squinted at him and said, "You old bitch, you are such a coward and a slut, fuck your mother! You must have been a butt-seller in the past."

Long Yan was so angry that he was puffing his beard and glaring. The big guys around him were a little surprised that Chen Wang was so arrogant, just like them when they were young.

The old man couldn't help laughing.

Long Yan sneered: "There are still people who can laugh."

The old man who was being mocked lit a cigarette and said with a smile: "I have no grudge against Chen Wang. You are glaring at me. If we fight later, can't I help Chen Wang?"

Long Yan was so angry that the corner of his mouth twitched.

Li Xiuyuan raised his hand and smiled: "It's not necessary. We are all demigods now, and we all have our own power. Is it worth it to fight to the death for a little loyalty?"

"Let's make a contract here today, agreeing not to retaliate against each other. If one of us breaks the contract, the rest of us will fight together. How do you think that is?"

After these words were spoken, everyone present fell silent.

Zhou Tianqing pondered and said, "We have already held a meeting. How should the Liang family allocate the two wilderness tribes? As far as I know, the two wilderness tribes have already joined Chen Wang."

Li Xiuyuan raised his hand to interrupt him.
"Mr. Zhou, I am young, but I want to say one thing. We cannot divide up the power of one person just because he dies. Wouldn't that make everyone feel disheartened?"

Zhou Tianqing frowned.

There is nothing wrong with what Li Xiuyuan said logically, but from a practical point of view, without a demigod in charge, who wouldn't want to get a piece of the pie?

Li Xiuyuan said, "Not only can no one die today, but those forces cannot move anymore. Xie Li is dead today. Does that mean the Xie family will be divided up? If someone dies, will the others pounce on him like hungry wolves? This is not okay. It shouldn't be like this."

Li Xiuyuan said it uprightly.

Zhou Tianqing frowned and said, "You mean no one can touch these forces?"

Li Xiuyuan laughed and said, "I don't have that much ability, and this is recognized by everyone."

Zhou Tianqing glanced over and found that others expressed their agreement.

Li Xiuyuan waved his hand and said, "I was just pushed out to speak. If you have any opinions, don't come at me. I'm just a tea shop owner."

Zhou Tianqing asked, "Where is Jin? Jin Jiuhan was killed by him, and Jin was also taken by Chen Wang. He should spit it out."

Li Xiuyuan smiled slightly and looked at Chen Wang.

"Chen Wang, if you have anything to say, let's discuss it. After all, no one has the final say."

Chen Wang said calmly: "I don't agree with what you said to him."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was a little surprised.

"I have a grudge against Jin Jiuhan. It was not my intention to occupy the Jin family. But now the Jin family has been arranged by me, and there are people loyal to me. I can't hand them over. This is impossible."

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "The Jin family's problem has long been over. In fact, what you said makes sense. There is no need for anyone to pretend to argue. The Jin family will not move. What belongs to you is yours."

These are the big guys who can decide big things with just a few words.

In fact, they had already discussed this matter a long time ago, but it also depends on Chen Wang's attitude.

If Chen Wang insists on having it, then he can take it. If he doesn't want it, then it's just right for Jin to stay.

Chen Wang continued, "There is also the issue of the Wilderness Tribe. I don't have any ideas about the tribe, but the problem is the same. Today, the two of them came to me to pledge their allegiance, and I promised to accept them. In this case, I can't sell them out anymore. It's that simple."

Zhou Tianqing sneered, "You are so arrogant, you want to fight against all the demigods by yourself?"

Chen Wang frowned and said, "Not everyone is on your side. And...if you keep pushing me, I'll tear your mouth apart!"

The atmosphere was tense. An old man coughed and said, "Can we have a good chat? You're so tense right from the start."

Zhou Tianqing was so angry that his teeth were itching.

Li Xiuyuan continued, "You mean the two wilderness tribes and the Jin clan will all belong to you?"

Chen Wang said: "I have no intention of competing for power, but the people are suffering. Since they have pledged their loyalty to me, I must protect them. Otherwise, there is no point in coming out to mix with them."

Several elderly people's eyes lit up.
This kid has a gangster vibe, he's very much like me when I was young.

But at their age and with their experience, many things are no longer black and white.

Li Xiuyuan spread his hands and said nothing.

Then he picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip.

An old man said, "Two wilderness tribes plus the Jin family have already formed a large force. The other old brothers attacked you before, probably because of this problem. If it is not resolved, conflicts are inevitable."

"As I said before, we cannot divide up forces without demigods. This is unfair and immoral, so the two wilderness tribes should regain their independence."

"As for the Xie and Liang families, we should not encroach on their territories and forces."

"Besides this, you can make other requests. You are still young. There is no need to be so impulsive and make so many enemies for yourself."

Zhou Tianqing sneered in his heart. From now on, many people do not support Chen Wang, or basically everyone is against it.

It is impossible to allow such a superpower to exist.

As a result, Chen Wang had to give up the two wilderness tribes under pressure, and if other forces wanted to join Chen Wang in the future, they would have to think twice.

Moreover, if he did not refuse, it would arouse public anger and attack him. He also wanted to see if Chen Wang could get away with it.

Chen Wang took out a cigarette and said calmly: "I'm not saying this to anyone. I don't mean that I want to talk to you, but that you want to talk to me."

"I agree not to pursue the matter of these old Bitengs ambushing me, but I want to make it clear that the people of the two tribes are loyal to me, so I will protect them. If anyone tries to get involved, I will chop off their hands."

The old man frowned at this moment.
"Young man, you are too angry."

Chen Wang said: "It's nice for so many of you to sit down and chat, but I don't want to argue endlessly."

"I have already stated my conditions. I will not touch the Xie and Liang clans. No one else is allowed to touch the two wilderness tribes who asked me for help."

The situation is now at a stalemate.

Zhou Tianqing sneered in his heart.
Chen Wang's temper was even tougher than he thought. If he were faced with this situation, he would probably have compromised and retreated, and would have sought development again.

You are still too immature and don't know how to be tactful and forbearing.

In this way, those who were originally neutral will be pushed to the opposite side of him.

Li Xiuyuan said calmly: "No matter what your attitude is, we can talk about it."

"There's no need to be so stubborn, don't you think?"

He personally poured a cup of tea for Chen Wang, with a hint of encouragement in his eyes.

Chen Wang raised his eyebrows slightly, showing an attitude that he would fight if they didn't agree with him.

"At worst, I don't want the Jin family anymore. Let's do it now. Whoever kills me is capable. But whoever is killed by me will have his family divided up sooner or later. Let's see who can afford it."

At this time, Chen Wang was like a bandit and bully.

Someone immediately slammed the table.

The tea room was very lively.

The shy young man silently took the broom and swept the broken teacups on the ground, then picked up the mop to mop up the tea that spilled on the ground.

Except for this time when he still had a little sense of existence, at other times no one knew where he was hiding.

The young man felt a little numb on his scalp.

"When gods fight, mortals suffer. Master still wants me to serve here at this time. This is too scary."

This young man's name is Li Xiao. To be precise, Li Xiuyuan is not only his master, but also his third uncle.

Li Xiao looked through the crack of the door quietly at this time.
Chen Wang debated with the group of scholars alone. Facing the pressure from so many demigods, he remained unmoved and continued to laugh, curse, and maintain a tough attitude.

"If I were in his position, I don't know if I could handle it. No, if I were in this situation, I would definitely pretend to be nice to these old guys first, and then silently make up my mind: Don't despise the poor young people because they are poor."

Li Xiao shook his head, then he thought about it.
"Fuck, am I thinking too far? If I were to get on this table, I'd probably be torn apart in a second."

Li Xiao silently took out a lollipop from his pocket and tore it open gently, fearing that any noise would shock these big guys and slap him to death.
It would be too unfair for me to die then.

Facts have proved that there is one disadvantage of having too many big guys, which is the lack of consensus.

Chen Wang actually knew that this meeting would definitely take a long time, but he was tough in order to negotiate better terms later.

Otherwise, if these old guys see the sweetness, they will become even more arrogant.

During this period, everyone discussed it many times but there was no way to end it peacefully.

Or maybe Chen Wang's eyes flashed with ferocity, he slammed the table and said that at worst he could go out and do it.

Or maybe Long Yan swung his bright stick hard, smashing the ashtray on the table, and cursed, "Don't be so arrogant, kid! Are you going to tear the sky apart?"

Whenever they quarreled outside, Li Xiao would sigh and muster up the courage to go out and clean up.

Li Xiao's scalp was tingling.

The atmosphere when these big guys talk is so tense that they might start fighting over something inappropriate.

"Wouldn't that smash my head? Uncle, Uncle, can we just ask for a waiter? Don't use your eldest nephew as a scapegoat!"

Li Xiao had already eaten eight lollipops, but still felt a little nervous.

only,
The meeting finally produced a result.

The Jin family naturally belongs to Chen Wang.

Since the two wilderness tribes have decided to join Chen Wang and support him, they can also be under Chen Wang's jurisdiction.

But if they change their minds in the future, Chen Wang cannot restrict them from leaving and joining other forces.

As for the Xie and Liang families, no one is allowed to interfere, exert pressure, or encroach on the power of these two families.

Finally, the most important and crucial one is decided.
From now on, strong men at the demigod level are not allowed to take part in battles, otherwise they will be regarded as violating the agreement and will be attacked jointly by many forces.

If the demigods do not take action, it means that the fight will be kept within a reasonable range, which is equivalent to nuclear weapons being controlled.

The contents of the meeting were recorded and each person had a copy.

Although the meeting was held in a teahouse with not very good business, the content of the meeting was very important.
It will directly change the ecology and pattern of Mingzhou, overturn the chaotic situation that has been formed over the years and establish a new delicate balance.
