Chapter 1723: Zhang Tie’s Bait

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

After Zhang Tie’s words, Xunshui Palace was in a short silence.

Watching the dumbfounded look of Wu Qiankun and Yuan Lang, Zhang Tie smiled inside.

By spending 2 million element crystals, Zhang Tie instantly had the initiative as he indirectly prevented Star Emperor Immortal Palace from solving the problem using element crystals.

Zhang Tie’s generosity implied that Zhang Tie didn’t care about losing such an amount of element crystals at all despite the fact that Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was facing difficulties for the time being. As for the reason why Zhang Tie ignored the 2 million element crystals, just let Wu Qiankun and Yuan Lang think about it themselves. No matter what, Zhang Tie knew that they must think that the reason was related to “his master”. In this way, Zhang Tie could intensify the image of the former Dragon Emperor who had long passed away and told everyone else that the unrivaled Dragon Emperor was still alive.

This was the result that Zhang Tie wanted.

Average people could never know Zhang Tie’s considerations.

“We’ve solved the first thing. I wonder about your second thing, General Manager Wu?” Zhang Tie took his teacup and slightly slid his teacup cover over the surface of the tea water. Closely after that, he slowly had a sip, not mentioning about the 2 million element crystals anymore.

Wu Qiankun took a look at Yuan Lang as he let out a sigh, “As for the second thing, given your intelligence, Your Majesty must have already hit it. I’m not here for private affairs; instead, I’ve received the decree from Emperor NvWa’s Palace. Emperor NvWa’s Palace want to fix the conflicts between Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace and Star Emperor Immortal Palace over the past years as a middleman!”

“Conflicts?” Zhang Tie smiled as he put down the teacup, adding, “Given your words, it seems that Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace plundered the cities and killed the immortal generals of Star Emperor Immortal Palaces over the past years. If you mean that, we don’t need to talk about it anymore!”

“Of course, Emperor NvWa’s Palace doesn’t mean that!” Wu Qiankun hurriedly replied with a solemn look, “Over the past tens of thousands of years, Emperor NvWa’s Palace always kept neutral among the immortal palaces in Motian Realm. Even if Emperor NvWa’s Palace has its stance, it must be considering the benefits of all humans. Over the past tens of thousands of years, some immortal palaces survived; some perished. If humans want to strive for surviving space with demons, we couldn’t avoid metabolisms and the survival of law among immortal palaces. The population and land resources of humans have to flow towards the more powerful ones. Commoners might not understand it; however, Your Majesty must know that I’m not telling a lie!”

Although Wu Qiankun’s words sounded comfortable, undeniably, his words were true in Motian Realm. Therefore, Zhang Tie nodded.

Watching Zhang Tie’s positive response, Wu Qiankun let out a sigh inside as he hurriedly added, “The Grand Dragon Emperor has already disappeared for over 900 years, during which period, Dragon Emperpr Immortal Palace didn’t make any big triumph towards demons. The number of immortal demon generals that were killed by immortal generals in Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was also decreasing. Now, on the Rank of Contribution in the immortal palace of Emperor NvWa’s Palace, although being an emperor-level immortal palace, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace has been hitting the last five ranks steadily. It could be said without a bias that Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was declining step by step over the past 900-odd years. Additionally, everyone else thought that the Grand Dragon Emperor might have encountered misfortunes. In this occasion, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace had long become the target of many immortal palaces in Motian Realm. Although what Star Emperor Immortal Palaces did was not right, it didn’t mean to offend Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace; nor did it have any conflict with Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace!”

“I understand. From different perspectives, there’re reasons for what Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace had encountered. However, although I understand it, it doesn’t mean that I have to accept it. No matter what, something wrong has happened. Now that Star Emperor Immortal Palace has done harm to Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, of course, they need to assume responsibilities for it. Star Emperor Immortal Palace had not imagined that the old man is still alive and has made great progress. After losing your chips on the gaming table, you can not regret!” Zhang Tie said calmly and decisively.

“I’m here to fix the relationship between Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace and Star Emperor Immortal Palace being entrusted by Star Emperor. I believe that everything could be fixed with sincerity in terms of cities or immortal generals. Everything has a price. No matter what, it’s better than having a fierce battle between two immortal palaces...” Yuan Lang finally opened his mouth sincerely which sounded kind and aggressive.

Zhang Tie just watched Yuan Lang without losing his temper; instead, he said calmly, “You’re right. Everything has a price. However, I’m afraid that I couldn’t determine this thing myself!”

“Why?” Wu Qiankun asked Zhang Tie out of curiosity.

“When I departed from the old man. The old man said he would deal with Star Emperor about this thing himself by force...” After hearing the former Dragon Emperor ‘s opinion, Wu Qiankun and Yuan Lang changed their faces in a split second. However, Zhang Tie continued as if he had not noticed their looks, “The old man is straightforward and cares about his fame. When he encounters powers, he would be more powerful than his opponents. As Star Emperor Immortal Palace hurt Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, the old man could never bear it. Therefore, it’s useless for you to talk about it with me. I admit that Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace couldn’t match Star Emperor Immortal Palace in power. But listen, if Star Emperor Immortal Palace wants to start a war with Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace now, the 8,000 immortal generals of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palaces would wait for you in Dragon Emperor Big Domain. If you have nothing else to talk with me, please go back...”

Zhang Tie pretended to not talk with them any longer.

“No!” The general manager of Emperor NvWa’s Palace had completely lost his calmness as he became extremely solemn and even a bit intense, saying, “As the Mountain Ruins is going to open soon, demons have been active and arousing battle flames in Nine Heavens Big Domain again, if immortal human emperors fought with each other at this moment, as long as one party was hurt, we might spare a chance for demons and demon emperors. By then, the foundation of humans in Motian Realm would be shaken. Your Majesty, could you contact Grand Dragon Emperor?”

“Yes, I could; but...”

“Your Majesty, given the lives of hundreds of millions of people in Motian Realm, you have to persuade Grand Dragon Emperor to stay calm for the time being. Don’t create the biggest regrets which would make friends and relatives hurt and enemies thrilled...” Wu Qiankun said as he stood up and bowed deeply towards Zhang Tie.

Zhang Tie deeply frowned his forehead as he looked a bit contradictory and embarrassed.

“I wonder whether the conflict between two emperor-level immortal palaces could be resolved if Star Emperor Immortal Palace would like to pay 6 million element crystals to Dragon Emperor Immortal Place...” Yuan Lang asked as he mentioned the “mental damage compensation”...
