Chapter 119 - 119: 119: GuBei’s Tact
“Behind Dragon Valley, we have the Jade Ling Palace now!”
Ao Yan coldly snorted: “If you dare to lift a finger today, I guarantee you won’t leave Dragon Valley alive.”
“You dare!”
An elder behind GuBei let out a cold snort as the presence of the Unity Period erupted.
The Unity Period was already among the top powers in the eastern realm.
But Dragon Valley couldn’t keep showing weakness. Ao Wan also unveiled his Unity Period power and, outside the Dragon Palace, frighteningly powerful waves of energy erupted, encircling all who came from the Ancient tribe.
Moreover, a delicate figure also appeared in the Dragon Palace.
It was the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable.
If indeed tensions were to erupt and violence break out at this moment, the only choice left for GuBei and his people would be to die within Dragon Valley. There’s no other option!
“Oh, look at the gall on this Ancient Tribe brat, daring to behave so wildly on someone else’s turf?”
The Martial Sea Immortal Venerable said as he looked towards GuBei with a faint smile.
GuBei instantly clenched his teeth and fists.
The Jade Ling Palace is not something that his Ancient Tribe can contend with!
However…
“Martial Sea Immortal Venerable, I really want to know, you poking your nose into Dragon Valley’s affairs, is that your wish or is that the wish of the Jade Ling Palace?” GuBei said coldly.
On hearing this in particular, even the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable raised an eyebrow.
“What makes you think your trivial talent gives you the audacity to speak to me like this?”
“Your ancient tribe is nothing but a joke. I can wipe it off the face of the earth all by myself.”
The Martial Sea Immortal Venerable’s words made GuBei’s face turn ashen.
However, this was an undeniable fact.
“I didn’t mean to say that. I only hope that the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable could stay out of the affairs between us.” GuBei said with a stone-faced expression.
“Hmph, Yan’er is now my disciple. As a mentor, how can I not step in when my disciple is in trouble?”
The Martial Sea Immortal Venerable narrowed his eyes: “I don’t want to waste much time with you. Yan’er needs to focus on her practice. You and your
Ancient Tribe should leave promptly. Don’t think about an alliance with Dragon Valley anymore.”
“If you fail to heed my words, bear the consequences.”
At once, the atmosphere within the Dragon Palace turned icy cold.
It seems like things will stabilize now that the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable has spoken.
But for some reason, Jiang Xiaobai noticed that the Ancient Tribe, as well as Ao Zheng’s lineage, didn’t seem anxious?
“Hmph, dogs. Truly thinking they can trample upon Dragon Valley?”
Ao Cheng coldly snorted: “You dare to threaten Dragon Valley. Do you think we’ve given you some sort of leverage?”
The Ancient Tribe was on alert, and everyone felt a wave of shame.
GuBei seemed on the brink of snapping but he was, after all, the top figure of the Ancient Tribe. His formidable power and shrewd tactics were enough to make anyone’s heart palpitate.
He stood still for half a minute. GuBei had already calmed down from that state of anger. He looked at Ao Yan with an icy expression.
“Are you willing to confront my Ancient Tribe for this useless person?”
“It’s your Ancient Tribe that’s gone too far.”
Ao Yan said indifferently: “I’m already married. You don’t have to think about these things anymore.”
“Haha, indeed.”
Mysteriously, GuBei nodded in agreement, seeming to recover the aura of the first person of the Ancient Tribe again, emanating an imposing manner.
“Let’s leave past unhappiness behind, come on, Ao Wan, let’s continue to discuss the alliance issue.”
GuBei said with a faint smile. Then he walked into the Dragon Palace as if nothing had transpired.
Such wisdom and tact sent shivers down one’s spine.
Jiang Xiaobai also squinted his eyes. This is going to be a tough one.
“Ao Wan, have you heard of the recently emerged Cleansing Pill?” GuBei asked calmly while sitting.
Upon hearing the words ‘Cleansing Pill’, Ao Wan and the others slightly furrowed their brows. They had not only heard of the Cleansing Pill, but they had also ingested it, each person having consumed one.
Because, this was made by Jiang Xiaobai.
Obviously, Dragon Valley wouldn’t tell GuBei about this.
Moreover, only a few in Dragon Valley were in the know.
“To tell you the truth, our Ancient Tribe is already in contact with the Golden Pavilion, and they have promised to reserve at least five Cleansing Pills for our
Ancient Tribe each time they’re available, probably once a month.”
GuBei drank his tea nonchalantly: “Moreover, they promised to connect us to the mysterious Pill-Making Master with the Iron Face. I’m 80% sure I can negotiate a deal, and maybe even persuade the Pill-Making Master with the
Iron Face to join our Ancient Tribe as a guest elder. The number of Cleansing
Pills we’d have at our disposal then should not be underestimated.” “I think you must be aware of the uses of the Cleansing Pill, right?”
At this point, GuBei fell silent, and did not continue.
His posture meant to convey a message to Ao Wan: if they cooperated with the Ancient Tribe, there would be no shortage of Cleansing Pills.
If Ao Wan and the others were oblivious to the truth, perhaps they might still hesitate. After all, the Cleansing Pill could remove poisonous fire directly, which equated to indirectly enhancing a person’s power.
But they knew!
Their heart found it amusing watching GuBei sit there smugly, though they felt it inappropriate to laugh. Even Ao Cheng, who was usually impatient, managed to contain himself.
They can’t tip GuBei off at this point!
“What do you say, Uncle Ao? Should you think it over?”
GuBei said with a faint smile, “An alliance between our two tribes would only prove beneficial and not cause any harm. I hope Uncle Ao will consider it carefully.”
“Hehe, my dashing nephew, please allow me to ponder this.”
Ao Wan said with a smile: “You’ve taken the trouble to come to Dragon Valley. Please stay for a few days and enjoy yourself. In a few days, I’ll provide you with an answer after consideration, all right?”
“Of course.
As GuBei said this, he placed a small porcelain bottle on the table, then stood up to leave.
As he reached the door, he suddenly looked at Jiang Xiaobai.
“Sometimes a sharp tongue might give you momentary power, but I look forward to seeing how you’ll speak when your mouth is sealed shut.”
He scoffed, and walked out of the Dragon Palace with his head held high. The first confrontation came unexpectedly and also ended swiftly.
Despite it being merely a few brief exchanges, Jiang Xiaobai understood that dealing with this GuBei was not going to be easy. Although it appeared that the negotiations had achieved a rough outcome for the day, Jiang Xiaobai was certain that guy would not let him off easily.
After the people of the Ancient Tribe left, Ao Wan casually opened the porcelain bottle on the table. It contained a Cleansing Pill.
This must be from the batch that Jiang Xiaobai gave to the Golden Pavilion last time. The fact that GuBei could acquire it so quickly did indeed demonstrate the power of the Ancient Tribe.
It’s a pity that such a valuable item, which would be treasured elsewhere, was not that important here in Dragon Valley.
As long as Jiang Xiaobai was here, there would be an endless supply of Cleansing Pills.
As if discarding rubbish, Ao Wan threw the porcelain bottle containing the pill aside and looked at Ao Cheng.
“These next few days, you better not mess around, otherwise I’ll break your legs, and confine you to the back mountain for ten years.”
Ao Cheng grimaced but remained silent.
“Xiaobai, these next few days, go to the Third Elder. Don’t wander around. The Ancient Tribe is tricky.”
Jiang Xiaobai nodded: “Don’t worry, Chief.. Don’t you trust me?”
