#4118 - Emperor Qin: The lion opens his mouth a little!

Seemingly humble in their attitude, in reality... it was already extremely rare for these old fellows to show such a demeanor.

At least, Bai Ze thought so...

After receiving this news, Qin Yi came out to meet these old fellows.

Without unnecessary words, Qin Yi slowly opened his mouth and said:

"Since you are here to admit defeat, then name your price."

The current situation had not yet reached the point of mutual destruction.

Since these old fellows were admitting defeat, Qin Yi was happy to give them a way out.

Lest these old fellows, without a way out, resort to desperate measures.

In the end, not only would it benefit Hongjun for nothing, but it would also bring no small trouble to himself.

This was the most honest thought in Qin Yi's heart.

These old fellows did not expect Qin Yi to be so direct.

Opening his mouth, he was asking them to name a price...

What kind of price could there be!

Originally, they thought Qin Yi would engage in some hypocrisy with them, but now it seemed they were simply overthinking things.

Come to think of it, it was indeed unrealistic to expect such a fellow to engage in hypocrisy with them.

"Fellow Daoist, you have been quite interesting over the years. You don't talk about empty fame, but only discuss price with us. This is good, so as to avoid wasting a lot of words. What is contained in this space ring is our sincerity this time. We hope that Fellow Daoist can restrain your subordinates and stop this meaningless offensive as soon as possible, and not let Hongjun take advantage of it."

"The current situation is not very good for any of us. Hongjun is secretly plotting. If either of us makes a mistake, then the biggest beneficiary will be Hongjun. In this case, we don't need to attack each other. Maintain an appropriate distance and stop this unnecessary fight."

"Fellow Daoist, I advise you not to look at us with such eyes. You seem to be saying that the reason why Hongjun can have plotting behavior now is entirely our intention. We admit that we were indeed not strict enough in dealing with Hongjun, but in the end, wasn't it you who forced us to do so? If you didn't mess around, why would we do this?"

"That's right, that's right. If you didn't mess around, we would never have planned with Hongjun like this. It's because you always mess things up, making our Barren Land a mess and making people uneasy. Now your eyes are very inhuman. We have already apologized, what else do you want?"

......

At first, Qin Yi listened to the old fellows in the depths of the Barren Land talking about things in a serious manner.

Unexpectedly, as they talked, this matter began to go awry.

It was really laughable!

Especially the last few sentences, which shattered Qin Yi's worldview.

What does it mean that they have already apologized, what else does he want?

In the Barren Land, Qin Yi indeed had his own ideas and indeed wanted to promote some things.

But no matter what, he shouldn't be carrying the blame for colluding with Hongjun.

Even if he really had to carry the blame, it should be these old fellows who carry the blame.

Looking at the various benefits sent by these old fellows from the depths of the Barren Land, Qin Yi's eyes showed a hint of disappointment.

Originally, he thought that the number of things sent by these old fellows should at least satisfy him.

As a result, they were still stingy...

Regarding this point, Qin Yi didn't intend to save face for them.

Instead, he directly opened his mouth and said: "These are far from enough."

Such a straightforward rejection immediately made the scene a little awkward.

Bai Ze helplessly looked at Qin Yi. His boss didn't seem to take the matter of maintaining other people's faces seriously.

Many times, Qin Yi's straightforwardness made Bai Ze a little weak.

Fortunately, this straightforwardness still had enough strength as suppression.

Didn't you see how ugly the expressions on the faces of these old fellows opposite were? Didn't they still have to accept Qin Yi's conditions?

Dare not accept it? Then you have to see who is in control of the situation now.

When asking for help, you must have an attitude of asking for help.

Bai Ze secretly said: "Whoever has the bigger fist, whoever speaks is the truth."

These words seem a bit rough.

However, the world of cultivators has always adhered to such a rough principle.

In the end, after some negotiation, Qin Yi obtained a large amount of cultivation resources...

These old fellows in the depths of the Barren Land were also able to get Qin Yi's side to withdraw their troops as they wished.

They were also a little dissatisfied with Qin Yi's 'small lion's opening'.

The Barren Land is not connected to the outside world. Except for Qin Yi, who doesn't know what method he uses to come and go freely.

Everything is used less and less.

It's really not that they are stingy, it's really that they are forced to do so.

In the outside world, they can still find ways to obtain more cultivation resources.

In such a closed world, giving Qin Yi so many cultivation resources is already heartbreaking.

On the way back, the expressions on the faces of these old fellows were very complicated.

There was the joy of achieving the goal, the anger of being ripped off, and the heartache of handing over their own cultivation resources...

"Alas, perhaps it's time for us to face our own position. We are no longer the force occupying the top spot in the Barren Land. Now it is the native side that occupies the top spot. Because of the constant changes in the situation, we and Hongjun are both high and low. If you ask me, let's just sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight."

"I'm afraid it's not that easy. The premise of sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight is that the tigers themselves are willing to fight. Do you think the current situation in the Barren Land is a fight between Hongjun and the native side? That's definitely not the case! Even if one day they really meet, it's nothing more than establishing it on the premise that we are completely eliminated."

"Forget it, let's live one more day as one can. I have now completely understood the situation. It turns out that no matter what we do, the situation will move in the direction of deterioration. If this is really the case, what are we still doing? It's better to wash our necks clean and send them to Hongjun or the native side to be killed. You don't have any fighting spirit at all."

"What does this have to do with fighting spirit? Could it be that so-called fighting spirit can change the situation? How is that possible! No matter how strong the fighting spirit is, the situation is uncontrollable! If you really want to change the situation, you need very, very strong power. It is a pity that we do not have this condition in this regard. We do not have strong power."

......

If there was any ability to change the current situation.

These old fellows in the depths of the Barren Land would definitely not sit still and wait for death.

Where do they still have any face now?

Actively go to send cultivation resources to the natives who were once hunted down, and then be ripped off by the other party!

It's all a joke to spread it out, and there's no way to be a person anymore.
