“Chu Yang? The Extraterrestrial Demon, Chu Yang?” The Li Clan was naturally up to date with the latest information. The moment they heard the name, they knew at once that this person was the Divine Doctor Chu and Extraterrestrial Demon Chu who had created a huge stir in the continent.
“Chu Yang is right but Extraterrestrial Demon, not necessarily.” Chu Yang smiled with great ease. “May I ask who the one in charge here is?”
“No matter who the one in charge is, seize him first!” A voice, as though the metallic clang of gold and iron, reached them.
A few Supreme Martial Artists came right up to him. Chu Yang didn’t put up any resistance at all. The next instant, his Dantian was locked and the flow of his blood and vital energy sealed. Setting their hearts at ease, the Supreme Martial Artists breathed a sigh of relief.
Inside, someone called out. “Bring him in!”
Someone then led Chu Yang into the room. Even though his Dantian had been locked and the flow of his blood and vital energy sealed, it didn’t affect his normal movements. Continuing to walk at a pace that was neither quick nor slow, he walked toward the inside.
A snowy white tent appeared after they turned the corner.
At once, three people filed out of the tent. Three pairs of eyes, as sharp as blades, bore into Chu Yang.
“State your purpose!” Li Qinglei, who was standing in the middle, commanded calmly.
“It goes without saying that I have come without any resistance whatsoever this time in order to collaborate with the Li Clan.” Laughing lightly, Chu Yang asked, “May I know who this is?”
Li Qinglei’s lips curled up strangely. “You don’t know who I am? You don’t recognize me?”
Puzzled, Chu Yang shook his head.
“Yet I recognize you!” Li Qinglei said mockingly, “If this old man’s eyes are still working fine, the white-robed man who rescued Lang Yilang and the others at the most critical moment that day was you, wasn’t it?”
Chu Yang got a shock. “Elder’s eyes are truly sharp! What a pity that this junior’s eyesight is terrible and didn’t actually see where Elder was at that time.”
Right away, murderous intent flashed in the eyes of the other two sixth-grade Supreme Martial Artists.
“Let’s kill him! What’s there to babble about so much with him?” Li Qingfeng spoke harshly.
“Don’t be hasty! He’s already in our hands. There’s no hurry in killing or torturing him.” Li Qinglei waved them off lightly. “Tell me, what is your purpose in coming here?”
Upright and unafraid, Chu Yang replied, “I’m here today to discuss with Elder how the two of us can work together.”
“Work together?” Lang Yilang let out a light laugh. “Like how?”
Chu Yang replied, “Firstly, I would like to explain that the reason why I had taken action back then was that four of the people among those being besieged are my friends! Elder is well-informed with the latest news. You would naturally know who those four are and what kind of relationship I have with them.”
Li Qinglei nodded. “Indeed! Wei Wuyan, Wan Renjie, Cheng Duying and Bao Buhuan certainly have close ties with you.”
“As such, when they were in danger, I had to save them.” Chu Yang said sincerely, “In the martial world, loyalty is very important. I believe that even if it had been Elder in my shoes at that point, you would also have chosen to take action without any hesitation.”
“You’re right!” Li Qinglei nodded again.
“Furthermore, Elder’s great foe, the Master of the Law Enforcement Interrogation Hall, Lang Yilang, has already died from your powerful palm strike!” There was a slight smile on Chu Yang’s face. “The four remaining officers have also become my men now!”
“They became your men?” Li Qinglei frowned.
“Yes. There are many ways you can use to control a person. Through the use of poison, for instance.” Chu Yang smiled slightly. “The kind where the sufferer needs to take the antidote every once in a while.”
Li Qinglei snorted, unsure whether to agree with him or not. “Go on.”
“Elder’s concern is simply that we would look for law-enforcement officers after we get out and notify them of how the Li Clan had attacked law-enforcement officers, thus bringing you great calamity.” His attitude neither haughty nor subservient, Chu Yang went on, “But as long as we can reach an agreement, this concern can be alleviated.”
The look in Li Qinglei’s eyes was ever-changing.
“The law-enforcement officers are tracking down the Extraterrestrial Demon throughout the whole world in order to arrest me. They accused me of a crime that I can never hope to clear myself of for life!” Chu Yang took a deep breath and continued, “Law-enforcement officers and I will never ever be able to come to an agreement in this lifetime and all future lifetimes to come! Elder is an astute man; you should know that I am not lying.”
“Yes! That is indeed so.” Li Qinglei acknowledged his words.
“Elder is clearer than me about the Li Clan’s current situation. The Nine Tribulations Sword Master is about to make his appearance. Soon, the Li Clan will face the eight Super Clans and law-enforcement officers! However, when the Nine Tribulations Sword Master first appears, he will no doubt be weak and powerless. Therefore, even though the Li Clan’s background is rich and strong, it definitely will not be a match for law-enforcement officers and the eight Super Clans!” Chu Yang analyzed.
“Yes!” Li Qinglei’s brows knitted as he nodded once more.
“At present, the boundaries of the Li Clan have already been significantly eaten away by the eight Super Clans! Yet the only thing the Li Clan could do against such a situation is draw back. Constantly drawing back yet unable to counter-attack — This must be extremely frustrating.”
“You’re indeed right!”
“Looking at it now, the Li Clan seems very safe! However, from a long-term perspective, the Li Clan is in a situation that’s as precarious as eggs stacking on top of each other!” Chu Yang continued, “The moment a wrong step is taken, the entire clan will be annihilated! This is not impossible!”
“You are right.”
As Chu Yang continued his narration, the look of interest in Li Qinglei’s eyes became even stronger.
“And right now, the eight Super Clans and law-enforcement officers have joined hands to take me down,” said Chu Yang. “Therefore, our enemies are fundamentally the same!”
“Yes!”
“The enemy of my enemy is my friend!” Chu Yang said, “I’m sure Elder agrees with this saying!”
“Of course!” Li Qinglei replied heavily.
“I’m sure Elder must be very clear about my data too.” Chu Yang said proudly, “I, Chu Yang, may not necessarily be unable to hold myself against the law-enforcement officers and eight Super Clans!”
The strange look in Li Qinglei’s eyes flashed a little. “Oh?”
“Elder should be aware of the eight Super Clans’ battle of Slaying of the Tao!” The corners of Chu Yang’s lips pursed slightly. “Not one out of 700 Supreme Martial Artists survived! All of them were killed! And the ultimate expert who had created this amazing battle record is someone from my faction! Right now, she is at the Chu Clan at Flat Mountain Ridge in the south-east!”
Chu Yang continued frankly, “Of course, she has also suffered injuries. However, after this period of time, she has recovered a great deal.”
Li Qinglei’s eyes flickered for a moment. “I believe you!”
Although the eight Super Clans tried their best to keep the battle of Slaying of the Tao a secret, how could they possibly keep something so big under wraps? Especially from a large clan like the Li Clan who had informants everywhere.
“The two Supremacies, Moon Breeze, are also at my home right now,” Chu Yang said.
The look on Li Qinglei’s countenance became serious. “Yes.”
“Wu Juecheng, one of the Nine Tribulations back then, is also at the Chu Clan! Although this may be a secret to others, I’m sure it isn’t one to the Li Clan.”
“Yes, I’m aware of this.” Li Qinglei released a long breath.
Every single one of these few names which Chu Yang had uttered was an impressive figure who could shake the earth with a mere flip of their hand! The moment any of them appeared, the world would change, what more when they were all gathered in one place?
“Elder should also be aware that the two Supremacies, Bu Liuqing and Ning Tianya, are also in an alliance with us.” Chu Yang smiled slightly. “Their disciple is my fiancée.”
With a look of haughtiness and disdain on his face, Chu Yang continued to speak.
“Moon Breeze’s disciple is a close female confidante of mine.”
“The Poison Doctor Wu Juecheng is my younger sister’s Teacher.”
“That ultimate expert who wiped out 700 Supreme Martial Artists in a battle is my bosom buddy!”
Li Qinglei fell into silence.
However, Li Qingfeng and Li Qingyu at the side were increasingly stunned!
The background behind this young man was actually this powerful!
An ultimate expert who could wipe out 700 Supreme Martial Artists in a battle! One of the Nine Tribulations back then, Wu Juecheng! Ning Tianya and Bu Liuqing! Yue Lingxue and Feng Yurou!
A good half of the figures who stood at the very top of the hierarchy pyramid of the world were actually on his side!
Were any of these people to visit the Li Clan, even they would have to receive them with great ceremony!
Chu Yang smiled slightly. “We are not the match for all the law-enforcement officers in the world, much less a match for when law-enforcement officers and the eight Super Clans join hands! However, with our strength, self-preservation… is not an issue at all. Even if the Dharma Supreme comes forward personally and all eight Elder Masters of the Super Clans gather, if we aim only for self-preservation, even they would only be able to glower at us, unable to do anything!”
“Therefore, if not for the fact that I’ve been driven into a corner by the Li Clan today, the thought of working with you, the Li Clan, has never crossed my mind!” With a smile, Chu Yang said, “After all, entering a collaboration with the Li Clan is no different from going against the whole world; the risk is too great. Yet we don’t have any of the Nine Tribulations in our clan…”
Li Qinglei let out a light puff of air. “In that case… Are you saying that you coming forward to negotiate with us right now is equivalent to giving us, the Li Clan, a lot of face?”
Smiling lightly, Chu Yang replied, “Of course. The first reason is that I’m stuck here right now and unable to get out. If both of us continue to go against each other, then it would no doubt become difficult for me to avoid death. But other than the eight Super Clans and law-enforcement officers, the Li Clan would also gain the people from my faction as enemies!”
“Secondly, the only benefit that comes out of our partnership for me is just getting to keep my life for the time being. However, to the Li Clan, it’s a long-term grand plan. Otherwise, why would I give myself up just like that and step forward to meet with you?”
Pointing at his forehead, Chu Yang chuckled and said, “Over here, this golden line, can you see it? This is ‘Two Souls Connected, One Heart Even in Life And Death’; Elder should know what this is… Hurhur, this was left behind by the bosom buddy who slaughtered 700 Supreme Martial Artists. If I were to die, even if she’s a million miles away… does Elder think he can hide the truth?”
Li Qinglei’s expression was a little grim.
Li Qingfeng and Li Qingyu exchanged a look in silence. Their anger had turned into deep contemplation.
Not a single word that the other party said was false!
Besides, he had also been driven into a corner by their clan and was left with no other choice. That was why he had come forward to offer a compromise, out of consideration for the general interest… If they were to really enter into a partnership with him, it was no doubt something positive for the current Li Clan as well.
But no matter how they thought about it, they couldn’t help but feel like something was amiss.
“There’s no point in forcing each other into a difficult situation when we’re on the same side!” Chu Yang said seriously.
“Hurhur, I will admit that all that you’ve said is true.” Li Qinglei narrowed his eyes. “But I don’t trust you! I don’t believe that you’ll collaborate with us.”
He narrowed his eyes and continued, “First of all, I don’t believe in that golden line of yours. Secondly, I don’t believe that Lang Yilang’s Interrogation Hall officers will become your men. Thirdly, I don’t believe even more that you’ll keep your promise after I let you go.”
Li Qinglei smiled dispassionately. “People who become fat from eating their own words… This old man has seen too much of it. To all of you, spreading the news and making us fight a bloody battle with the law-enforcement officers seems to be even more advantageous! I find it very difficult to believe that you won’t do that after you get out!”
