Chapter 1256: Why did they come?
The people in the room looked towards Ye Zhongming.
Their hearts shook.
What the Saintess and Ling Kun said represented the attitudes of Saint Light Hall and the Posthumous People. They didn’t want to clash with the demon monster army, and this was the most beneficial solution for them.
But did they know that it would hurt Cloud Peak’s interests?
Of course, they did.
Not mentioning Saint Light Hall as they were enemies with Cloud Peak. Posthumous People were allies with Cloud Peak. Now that your allies stood together with the enemy, it definitely felt awkward and ashamed.
They were naturally afraid that Ye Zhongming would oppose.
It was okay if Ye Zhongming and Cloud Peak were just a small faction that they could suppress to reach their goals. But Cloud Peak and Ye Zhongming were experts. Especially since Ye Zhongming became eight star, he was stronger than everyone here. If Ling Kun or the Saintess fought him alone, they didn’t have the confidence to win.
Cloud Peak was also very strong. It had strong weapons and equipment, a high average level, weird gene warriors, and those terrifying crystal weapons.
Honestly, be it the Posthumous People or Saint Light Hall, they weren’t confident in taking Cloud Peak on.Such a strong person represented a strong faction. Even if they were on the same side, they were still nervous.
One must know that this person controlled the space gate.
If Ye Zhongming left in anger, then they would have to wait here for death.
“This meeting is a plot, right?”
Ye Zhongming stood up and was expressionless. You couldn’t see any rage from being plotted against or any other emotions.
But the more it was like that, the more terrified these people felt.
Saintess, two heads, kings, all of them stood up.
Xia Lei and Guang Yao, who accompanied Ye Zhongming, also stood up. Xia Bai even released Fallen Wings. If she received the order, she would attack these people.
“Zhongming, Zhongming! It isn’t what you think!”
Hong Xiang was the closest to Ye Zhongming, and when he saw that the situation was getting out of control, he told Ye Zhongming to calm down. He was afraid that this guy who he lost to when he was seven stars would turn on them. He didn’t think the six could force him to stay.
“Right, Zhongming. We are always friends, so why will we plot against you?” Hong Xiang panicked. Xia Bai’s actions made him regret it. Maybe he should have let Ye Zhongming in on this in advance, which would have made the situation less nervous.
He felt it wasn’t right for them to stand with the enemy and threaten Ye Zhongming to a certain extent.
“We didn’t want to hurt your interests. Today is just a discussion.” The Saintess explained.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Did Saint Light Hall and Posthumous People want to break their relationship with him? Of course not. They just wanted to pressure him so he would agree with their idea. Seeing that he showed signs of flipping the table, they panicked.
“Zhongming, we know that this means we will lose the entire Blue Secret Realm, and you will suffer huge losses.” Neal was embarrassed, “But facing these demon monsters, especially that level nine presence, we can’t handle it. Be it the Saintess or us, we have just gone through a huge battle and are injured. For the sake of our race’s survival, we can’t have a full war with the demon monsters.”
Neal made himself sound sad, which slightly affected Xia Lei and Guang Yao.
They saw that the kings and Saint Light Hall didn’t want to do anything bad to Cloud Peak and Ye Zhongming. They were just speaking from their own point of view and chose a path that was best for them.
“We can compensate you. You might not get as much as you would from the secret realm, but we will compensate you. Even if it would affect our lives on Earth, it is okay.”
Seeing Neal say that, the Saintess spoke again, “Right, Saint Light Hall will do the same. We will also help Cloud Peak do things on Earth besides material things. For the next period of time, our army can also be fully under your control as long as you don’t purposely send us to die.”
Ye Zhongming relaxed a little.
That cold smile disappeared.
The fact that they could say such things like their entire race listening to an outsider showed that the Saintess did not want to hurt Cloud Peak.
But was that enough? Ye Zhongming could sacrifice his interests because of that?
How would he answer to Little Tiger, who had lost his eye here? How would he answer to the core members who were badly injured or dead? How would he answer to the Cloud Peak warriors who died for his Secret Realm plan?
Ye Zhongming told everyone to sit down and also told Xia Bai to calm down. He said slowly, “I understand your thoughts, and don’t think you want to be enemies with me. If I was in your shoes, I might do the same too.”
Hearing him say that, everyone smiled. No matter if they wanted to admit it or not, Ye Zhongming was the core of their hearts. His attitude decided many things.
“But just as what you worry, I also don’t want to see Cloud Peak’s interests being hurt.” He walked to the curtain and saw the people busy outside. They wasn’t as joyful as before and worried that the demon monster army was coming.
“Compensation?” He laughed, “How much can you give? To be honest, you can’t give me much!”
Saintess and the kings coughed awkwardly and knew Ye Zhongming was saying the truth.
“As for listening to orders, I am not interested in uncertain things.”
Saintess wanted to object, but Ye Zhongming waved and interrupted her.
“So, my stand is still the same. I don’t plan on giving up on the Secret Realm.”
The others looked at each other. They spoke for so long and weren’t able to change his thoughts?
“Of course, I don’t plan on fighting with the demon monsters. I want to live longer.”
“Then Zhongming what do you mean?” Hong Xiang looked around before asking.
He waved a finger.
“Before I answer that, let me ask a question. Did you think about why they are coming? Moreover, why are they coming toward the Imperial City?”
What do you think?
