Chapter 806: Raising the price from the ground up

Zhou Yiqiao entered the Nether Palace under the guidance of the gatekeeper disciples. However, before he saw several elders, he heard the angry shouts from Elder Li from the meeting hall.

"It's really unreasonable. These beasts are just like our Netherworld Demon Sect, and the demands they make are getting more and more excessive every time!"

"Do you really think that our Netherworld Demon Sect will not be able to withstand the attacks of the barbarians from the north without their demon monks!?"

Zhou Yiqiao heard the sound and turned to look at the gatekeeper disciple beside him, but saw that the other disciple shook his head repeatedly. He did not want to be involved in this matter and was unwilling to answer.

Zhou Yiqiao had no choice but to wave away the other party. After gathering his composure, he opened the door and entered the meeting hall.

Several elders did not release their spiritual consciousness. They did not know that Zhou Yiqiao came in and vented their anger on him.

"I have already said that there is no need to serve tea, but you still dare to introduce it privately now. Do you think that the power of my Yin Shen Claw has declined and I can no longer deal with you disciples!?"

Seeing Elder Li's indiscriminate expression of anger, Zhou Yiqiao had a certain understanding of the seriousness of the matter, squeezed out a standard smile, cupped his hands and said.

"Disciple Zhou Yiqiao met as promised. I wonder what happened that made the elders so angry?"

"Ok?"

Seeing Zhou Yiqiao's figure, most of the anger on the faces of Elder Li and others dissipated.

After a long while, Elder Li smiled bitterly and threw a jade slip to Zhou Yiqiao.

"Nephew Zhou Xian, take a look for yourself. This is a jade slip sent from the sect."

Zhou Yiqiao took the jade slips and scanned them all with his spiritual thoughts, and his face immediately turned ugly.

"Are these monster monks really so shameless?"

"It was me, the Netherworld Demon Sect, who they took the initiative to contact at the beginning. Even so, I, the Netherworld Demon Sect, treated each other with courtesy. Now, I'm here to raise the price and blackmail us?"

It is clearly recorded on the jade slip that the demon clan who came to Yongzhou for support, after seeing that the battle line between the Netherworld Demon Sect and the barbarians had stabilized, actually asked the Netherworld Demon Sect to improve the treatment given to the demon monks.

According to the records on the jade slips, they not only wanted to establish a permanent garrison in Yongzhou, but also required the Nether Demon Sect to provide enough high-level blood food to that stronghold every month.

In addition, the Nether Demon Sect must also agree to a condition that allows the demon clan to choose.

If this is the case, the demon clan will continue to help the Nether Demon Sect and resist the invasion of the barbarians.

If the Nether Demon Sect refuses, they will not only withdraw from Windward City immediately, but they may also turn to Mo Tuo Mountain, Huangquan Temple, or even the Cai Zhang Royal Court to counterattack the Nether Demon Sect.

"I wonder how the sect master and the elders in the sect plan to deal with it?"

Zhou Yiqiao did not dare to express his position without permission, so he sent the jade slip back with both hands and asked cautiously.

Elder Li held his forehead with one hand and glanced at the elders beside him. Seeing that they were still aggrieved and had no intention of speaking, he could only sigh and reply.

“The sect’s intention is to comply with the needs of these monster clans.”

"How could this happen!?"

This time, it was Zhou Yiqiao's turn to feel angry.

"Every senior sect member knows that our Netherworld Demon Sect has not yet used its full war potential. Even without the support of these demon beasts, we can resist the barbarian attack. Why should we agree to such rude requests from the demon clan?"

Elder Li smiled bitterly and stretched out his hand.

"Not to mention nephew Zhou Xian, we elders who are far away from the sect don't know why the Demon Sect agreed to such an outrageous request from the Demon Clan."

"No matter what, since it was a decision made by the sect master and the sect elders together, there must be aspects that we cannot see. We can only follow it now."

"only......"

Zhou Yiqiao raised his head, with just the right questions in his eyes.

"It's just that although the sect can easily comply with the needs of the demon clan, our Windward City still needs to rely on the annual transportation of resources to maintain its operation."

"The blood food that the demon tribe needs is just a shipment of supplies. Now that the demon tribe's lions are opening their mouths, how can we in Windward City meet their needs?"

After Zhou Yiqiao heard this, he finally realized that Elder Li and others were not angry because the sect casually agreed to the demon clan's request, but were unhappy because the sect did not consider the operation of Windward City at all.

Understanding the crux of the matter, Zhou Yiqiao pondered for a while, and suddenly thought of the spiritual grass he had obtained many years ago.

"The disciple has a kind of spiritual fruit in his hand that replenishes Qi and blood. At the same time, a lot of it has been retained for some reasons. It can temporarily alleviate the urgent needs of the elders."

"oh!?"

When Elder Li and others heard this, they immediately beamed with joy and asked in unison.

"Is this true?"

Zhou Yiqiao nodded slightly.

"Everything the disciple said is true, but the disciple's personal strength is limited after all. The number of monsters in Windward City is so huge, I'm afraid they won't be able to sustain it for a long time."

"Hahaha, it doesn't matter. I have already transmitted back to the sect. The blood food urgently escorted by the sect will arrive in Windward City in one month. As long as it can alleviate this month's urgent needs, you will have no worries!"

After Elder Li finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Yiqiao eagerly, hoping to see positive results from him.

"In this way, the disciple can be satisfied, but..."

Elder Li understood clearly, laughed, stroked his beard, and responded cheerfully.

"Haha! Don't worry, Nephew Zhou Xian. As long as your spiritual fruit can really alleviate your urgent needs, in addition to the high-quality spiritual herbs I promised you three days ago, I can also take out my personal collection and let Nephew Zhou Xian choose one from it!"

Seeing that Elder Li had already stated such conditions, Zhou Yiqiao was sensible and did not make any further requests, and nodded immediately.

"Since the elder has such good intentions, the disciple will not delay."

With that said, he left the Nether Palace with an excuse, took out a Blood Coagulation Fruit from the Moon Stone Space, and returned to the presence of several elders.

This blood coagulation fruit is the blood essence fruit tree he obtained in Yanzhou. After so many years of ripening in the moonstone space, it has advanced into a third-grade fairy fruit. Its effect is not even a bit stronger than that of the blood essence fruit. It can be said that There have been earth-shaking changes.

Today's Blood Coagulation Fruit can increase the physical strength and blood recovery speed of the user. It is a spiritual fruit that Zhou Yiqiao will receive every time he rewards the demon beast subordinates such as Seven Swords.

The first time Elder Li saw the Blood Coagulation Fruit, he recognized its origin and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Since it is a third-level spiritual grass coagulating fruit, no wonder Nephew Zhou Xian dares to solve the current dilemma!"

Zhou Yiqiao smiled and handed the blood coagulation fruit to the old man, then returned to his original position and cupped his hands.

"Since the elders saw that the disciple had a 'cure' in his hands, they didn't know about the promised reward..."
