The crazy uncle-master went on a killing spree, and the whole sect was burned to death!

Chapter 540 Negotiation!

"I'm going to the demon realm next, so I won't be staying in the sect any longer."

Song Wanning turned her head and smiled at her master.

What she is doing now will make things better for the people she loves, and will also help them ascend to heaven more smoothly.

She really liked this sense of security.

If those invaders are not eliminated, the natural order of the wood-plastic industry may make them victims.

She must not let what happened in her past life happen again.

Upon hearing this, Leng Qingzhu paused for a moment, then smiled and patted Song Wanning's head.

"No matter your cultivation level, you will always be my disciple. In my eyes, you will always be that little girl who dares to love and hate."

"So if you're tired, don't carry it all alone."

"Your master will always protect you."

Her eyes were full of loving kindness; only in front of Song Wanning could she completely relax.

Wan Ning is the child she raised herself, and also her daughter.

She's the kind of girl I'd protect with my life.

A warm feeling welled up in Song Wanning's eyes as she obediently nestled on Leng Qingzhu's lap.

"Master, don't worry about me. I will take good care of myself!"

She will definitely not let her master down!!
……

After staying at the sect for a few days, Song Wanning practiced with several senior disciples before leaving the Ancient Cold Sect.

And the Ancient Cold Sect was indeed not bothered at all; in fact, it was unusually peaceful.

This left other factions somewhat confused, prompting various speculations.

However, they soon received devastating news: the Central Domain would send people to negotiate with the Four Domains.

A group of people panicked. Sure enough, the Central Domain was still unwilling to just occupy that corner and wanted to come and divide up the resources.

Some forces in the four regions began to secretly connect and discuss that if the Central Region took a hard line, they would fight it out.

If the four domains join forces, the Central Domain is no match for them.

The price to pay is too high, and no one wants to go to this point unless absolutely necessary.

Soon, Luo Hantian was invited to participate in the negotiation meeting again.

This time, Luo Hantian remained silent throughout, appearing unfathomable.

People were unsure of his thoughts, but no one made any sarcastic remarks, since unity was needed right now.

"I propose that if the Central Domain wants to forcibly seize our resources and minerals, then we must unite and cooperate to resist the enemy. No one should drop the ball or cause trouble."

"Or perhaps they are secretly colluding with the Central Region to undermine our interests!"

Someone stepped forward and spoke up.

These words struck a chord with everyone, as they feared that some people would back down without a fight and become their traitors.

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

Some people were dissatisfied when they saw that Luo Hantian remained silent and did not nod or agree throughout the entire process.

He spoke directly, asking, "Why hasn't Sect Master Luo made a statement? Has the Ancient Cold Sect reached some shady agreement with the Central Region?"

Everyone was expecting the Central Region to take action against the Ancient Cold Sect, but several days have passed and no one from the Central Region has mentioned it.

Secretly, they made all sorts of speculations, but they never expected anyone to dare to bring it up in this setting.

Upon hearing this, Luo Hantian's cold eyes, sharp as an eagle's, suddenly darted up to look at him. Surprisingly, he wasn't angry at all.

After all, with a genius like Song Wanning emerging from within the sect, other sects and families could only look on with envy.

He said somewhat lazily, "Anyone here might cooperate with the Central Region, but my Ancient Cold Sect is the only one who cannot."

"Of course, I cannot reveal the specific reasons, but if anyone insists on smearing my Ancient Cold Sect, then don't blame me for turning my back on them on the spot!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Hantian's aura immediately changed.

Those who wanted to say more immediately shut their mouths, because Luo Hantian really meant to take action!
The crowd fell silent again, and after a few seconds someone tried to smooth things over.

The group continued discussing how to deal with the Central Domain, and Luo Hantian remained silent, secretly chuckling to himself.

Many people here are waiting to see the ancient Han Sect suffer a calamity.

I just don't know who will be the one to suffer in the end.
Luo Hantian's lips curled into a wicked smile. In his mind, he praised Song Wanning from head to toe once again, and marveled once more at his excellent taste.

Therefore, he looked completely different from the restless crowd.

Out of place.

But no matter how worried we were, what was bound to happen eventually did happen.

Representatives from the Central Region were dispatched to negotiate terms. Each region sent at least fifteen Nascent Soul stage cultivators, all with imposing manners.

The people from the Southern Region greeted us warmly, greeting us with official smiles throughout.

The representatives from the Central Region were very direct and didn't waste any time; they went straight to the topic of resource exchange.

"We people in the Central Region are all reasonable. This time, the opening of the barrier has brought spiritual energy to several areas, which has a great impact on our Central Region!"

"But we are all cultivators from the spirit realm, so we are one family, and we are happy to share with everyone."

"At the same time, we also hope to complete a resource exchange with the Four Domains, such as allowing the Four Domains to enter certain areas of the Central Domain, and the Four Domains..."

The representative said some nice things, but soon raised a lot of objections.

They made it sound very nice, about exchanging resources, but in the end, the Southern Region paid more and received very little benefit.

Everyone's expression turned sour, and soon they couldn't even manage a smile anymore.

The representative from the Central Region smiled throughout, saying, "I'm sure everyone wants to avoid any unpleasantness between us, right?"

"Peace is of paramount importance, and this has always been a tradition in our Central Region. Now that we can exchange goods and services, everyone should be happy, am I right?"

The representative was still smiling, but a blatant threat was hidden beneath the surface.

However, no one could find fault with their actions, since they did indeed have an advantage in the matter of spiritual energy.

At this point, they even hoped that the Central Domain would simply rob them outright, so that everyone would have a reason to fight back.

If they make too much of a scene now, people will only think that they are being greedy and unseemly.

When the war breaks out in the five regions, those people will surely blame them to death.

Everyone looked at each other, feeling awkward for a moment.

In the end, the representatives from the Central Region considerately suggested leaving temporarily to give everyone time to make a decision.

When they returned half an hour later, the people from the Southern Region engaged in some more bargaining, but the initiative remained with the Central Region.

The central domain reluctantly agreed to a few conditions and then began a new allocation of resources.

Every sect and family allocated a portion of its resources to the Central Domain, and in return, they received certain qualifications for secret realms within the Central Domain.

Although it's unfair, everyone has gained something to some extent, so there's not much to say.

Who can blame them for having such strength?

Even the Southern Region can't beat them.
