Chapter 2571: Chapter 2572: The Kunshan Tribe’s Terms

Ye Luo heard this and started to laugh.

”Even if we don’t cooperate, it’s not easy to survive wedged between the Moonwater Tribe and the Kunshan Tribe. However, we’re definitely not just cooperating with the Kunshan Tribe!”

”Do you mean—!” Princess Xiu’s eyes suddenly lit up.

”That’s right! Fight force with force!” Ye Luo smiled.

However, apart from Princess Xiu, everyone else was bewildered.

Ye Luo did not give much explanation to these people because the Kunshan Tribe’s people had arrived at Qingxiu Peak once again.

Several of them remained in the reception hall, due to lessons from the past, Princess Xiu directly sat in the main seat.

This time, only one elder came. This elder had no aura at all and appeared physically very frail.

”Who would have thought the Vice Clan Leader would visit in person, I’m sorry for not welcoming you sooner!” Fifth Uncle went up to greet him with a smile.

The two of them were once vice clan leaders of different tribes and often interacted with each other, so they were quite familiar with one another.

”Old Wu, you know what I’m like, so don’t call me Vice Clan Leader. Half of my body is already buried in the ground!” The Vice Clan Leader of the Kunshan Tribe gave a wry smile.

This was probably one of the few humble high-ranking members of the Kunshan Tribe, so he left a pretty good impression on Ye Luo and the others.

”Let me introduce everyone! This is the Vice Clan Leader of the Kunshan Tribe, and one of my few foreign friends!” Fifth Uncle said with a smile.

Of course, their positions meant they could never truly be friends, but he said this to tell Ye Luo and the others that this person was reliable, unlike the previous Grand Elder.

Everyone caught on immediately and greeted the Vice Clan Leader in turn.

”You needn’t do this. This time, the Clan Leader promised me a life-prolonging treasure, so I agreed to come. So, you all should just consider this as doing me a favor. After all, those ten drops of Kunshan Essence are like extending my life!” Elder Mu said with a bitter smile.

He was honest, laying everything out clearly.

But, apart from Fifth Uncle’s surprise, the others showed no expression because they had no idea what Kunshan Essence was, only guessed it must be a precious treasure.

”Elder Mu, it’s not that we at Qingxiu Peak are uncooperative. We don’t even know what the Kunshan Tribe’s conditions are. If they expect us to become their slaves, then Qingxiu Peak may as well perish. You and I both know this!” Fifth Uncle said sternly.

Elder Mu nodded slightly, ”I understand, naturally. If that were truly the case, I certainly wouldn’t be here. Not only wouldn’t I get the Kunshan Essence, but I’d also lose face at such an old age. In fact, our Clan Leader is very sincere about cooperating with Qingxiu Peak this time!”

Seeing that Ye Luo and the others did not object, Elder Mu laid out the conditions in detail.

He was really just a messenger; he relayed everything the Clan Leader said to him to Ye Luo and the others. If it were another elder, they would certainly try to exploit the situation for benefits.

Thus, they all changed their attitude towards Elder Mu.

”Elder Mu, we have indeed seen the Kunshan Tribe’s sincerity. It’s just that we have one request: no matter what happens, the Kunshan Tribe must not meddle in Qingxiu Peak’s affairs! As for letting your talented disciples train at the Heart Cultivation Hall, that’s fine, but it will have time limits. And the resources required to open the Heart Cultivation Hall must be borne by the Kunshan Tribe. After all, if you want to use the Heart Cultivation Hall, you must know that under normal circumstances, it cannot be opened casually, and to open it does require a large amount of resources!” Princess Xiu said solemnly.

The Vice Clan Leader nodded slightly, ”Okay, I will convey this to the Clan Leader!”

He completely intended to act as a mouthpiece, not giving any personal opinions.

Of course, this was not senility on his part. Quite the opposite; it was a sign of his cleverness.

”As for the Clan Leader wanting to stay at Qingxiu Peak for a while, that is naturally fine! But it must not interfere with our normal operations at Qingxiu Peak!” Princess Xiu continued.

In fact, these were the conditions required by the Kunshan Tribe. The basis of cooperation was that the Kunshan Tribe would help Qingxiu Peak fend off the Moonwater Tribe!

The basic condition was something they had already anticipated, but they were puzzled about the Kunshan Tribe’s demands.

Regarding the Heart Cultivation Hall, cultivating talented disciples was understandable. But why would the Clan Leader want to stay here temporarily?

It was likely related to the Queen.

This time, Ye Luo did not partake in the decision-making because Princess Xiu and Ice Princess were naturally well-acquainted with the situation at Qingxiu Peak. Since Princess Xiu agreed, it indicated that these two conditions would not endanger Qingxiu Peak fundamentally.

”I’ve noted down Princess Xiu’s opinions and will report back to the Clan Leader! Given the urgency, I won’t bother you further!”

He was decisive; after speaking, he left the hall.

”Sister, allowing Kunshan Tribe people to come to Qingxiu Peak is like inviting a wolf into the house!” Ice Princess said, frowning.

Princess Xiu did not answer this question but looked towards Ye Luo.

”Ye Luo, what do you think of this move?”

Ye Luo thought for a moment, ”Since Princess Xiu has decided, there surely won’t be any risks!”

”If resources are used to open the Heart Cultivation Hall, it wouldn’t be very effective. On the contrary, Mother once had an idea to open the Heart Cultivation Hall to other tribes, charging only for the resources required for each opening!”

Ye Luo suddenly understood. The Heart Cultivation Hall was merely a magic artifact that contained the Queen’s Divine Sense Avatar. Clearly, something must have happened to the artifact, causing the Queen’s Incarnation to be unable to exit. And wouldn’t these resources be exactly what’s needed to repair the Heart Cultivation Hall?

The Queen had made a clever calculation! The Kunshan Tribe thought they were getting a great deal.

”The Clan Leader of the Kunshan Tribe coming to Qingxiu Peak is indeed good news because at least the Moonwater Tribe would not dare to act rashly!” Ye Luo said with a smile.

Princess Xiu also nodded with a smile, ”Exactly!”

Only, Fifth Uncle’s face still showed worry, ”Do not be complacent. The Clan Leader of the Kunshan Tribe is not easy to deal with. He is cunning and this time surely doesn’t have small intentions!”

”That’s why I have to continue with Ye Luo’s plan!” Princess Xiu said with a smile.

But, no one, including Fifth Uncle, knew what Princess Xiu’s next step would be.
