Chapter 603: Negotiation
To be honest, Xiao Ding was still very curious about what kind of concessions these sect families would make.
"Master Xiao, we have already made a decision. Lone Star looked at the other heads of the family, hesitated for a moment, and then said slowly: "As long as the Xiao family is willing to let go of Yan Lao and them, we are willing to make a promise at the Ancient Realm Competition in two years, if the Xiao family is defeated, we only need to give up half of the cultivation resources." ”
This is the end result of their deliberations.
The Great Comparison of the Ancient Realm is the distribution of cultivation resources, and it has always been the Xiao family that occupies an absolute advantage and has the most cultivation resources.
Now, it was naturally impossible for these sect families to completely give up the competition for cultivation resources because of Yan Lao and his group.
Of course, if you want to rescue Yan Lao and them, you don't have to pay the slightest price, it is simply impossible.
It can be said that the Xiao family lost in the Great Competition of the Ancient Realm, and only gave up half of the cultivation resources that should have been given up, which was already a very difficult concession for these sect families.
It can also be said that they have shown all their sincerity.
Again, wanting to still occupy so many cultivation resources is something that other sect families simply can't allow.
As the cultivation resources of the ancient realm became less and less, the open and secret battles between the various sect families were also becoming more and more powerful, if it weren't for the strength of the Xiao family that was enough to suppress the whole audience, I am afraid that it would have already been jointly suppressed by other sect families.
This time, two years later, in the Great Rivalry of the Ancient Realm, the various sect families had actually made repeated arrangements, intending to deprive the Xiao family of all the cultivation resources in their hands, so that the gap between them would inevitably be lowered and the strength of the Xiao family would be continuously weakened.
And this plan also has a certain relationship with Yan Lao and his group.
Therefore, whether it is because of Yan Lao's identity in the end, or the plan of the Ancient Realm Dabi two years later, Yan Lao and them must be rescued this time.
It is precisely because of this that this situation finally appeared.
"This condition is indeed very tempting, and it also makes me feel your sincerity. Xiao Ding's eyes flashed slightly, and the corners of his mouth outlined a curvature, and said: "However, this matter is not something that I can decide alone, so I ask you to wait here for a while, and I will go and discuss it with the elders in the family." ”
"This is as it should be, the head of the Xiao family is at his own convenience. ”
Although, Lone Star disagreed with Xiao Ding's words, thinking that it was just an excuse for the other party to delay time, or he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to increase his chips and create more pressure on them.
After all, with Xiao Ding's identity in the Xiao family, there is absolutely no problem if he wants to be the master of this matter.
It's just that in this case, they can't point it out directly, otherwise, it will make the face between the two sides unbearable, or even tear their faces because of it.
Such consequences are naturally not something they can afford.
What's more, now that he has come to the Xiao family and has talked about this situation, there is naturally no need to care about the time that may be delayed in the future.
As long as they can use the conditions given so far to bring Yan Lao and his group back, then they will be considered to have completed their task.
As for the grievances with the Xiao family, you can wait until the ancient realm Dabi two years later, and then settle it out together.
Could it be that after so many years of fighting with each other, even the last two years cannot wait?
"Okay, please hold on. ”
After saying this, Xiao Ding did not hesitate, and immediately turned around and walked towards the outside of the living room.
Although this matter is just an idea that suddenly came to his heart after the arrival of Lone Star, Xiao Ding believes that this is indeed the best way to solve the problem at present.
It is precisely because of this that he will continue to negotiate with Lonely Star and others, and his purpose is naturally to send Yan Lao and others away quietly.
However, at present, it has been talked about to this point, and basically there is a final result, so Xiao Ding also needs to discuss with the elders of the Xiao family and analyze it together, so as not to cause an unexpected situation because of his own negligence in the end.
One person is short-minded, even if Xiao Ding thinks perfectly, maybe there will be something to consider.
And now, going to the mundane world to find the ancient secret realm is the most important thing for the Xiao family.
With Xiao Ding's departure, the group of Lone Star also began to talk in a whisper.
In fact, they still didn't have much confidence in their hearts about exchanging such conditions for the freedom of Yan Lao and the others, because this condition was equivalent to directly cutting half of the conditions mentioned by the Xiao family.
Presumably, such a situation was definitely unimagined for the Xiao family.
Perhaps, Xiao Ding needs to discuss with the elders of the Xiao family, but in fact, the main reason is that the conditions they put forward have exceeded the bottom line in the Xiao family's heart.
However, no matter how they discussed, there was actually no way to get the final result, because all of this still depends on the attitude of the Xiao family.
If they could find out the attitude of the Xiao family, they would not have been at a disadvantage in the battle with the Xiao family for so many years, and they had never occupied much advantage, and even more so, they couldn't even master the cultivation resources, causing the Xiao family's strength to become stronger and stronger, and finally reached the point where it is today.
This time, for the Great Competition of the Ancient Realm two years later, it was actually the calculation of the families of the various sects, which was to let the Xiao family give up some of their cultivation resources.
If they really continued to let the Xiao family have so many cultivation resources, as the resources of the ancient realm became less and less, sooner or later, they would all have no place to live.
In fact, everyone knows these truths, but it is very difficult to make a final decision easily.
This time, it was also Lone Star and Baili Lone Xing who united with other sect families, and after several years of discussion, they finally made up their minds and decided to completely tear their faces with the Xiao family in the ancient world two years later.
At that time, if the Xiao family did not agree, they would rather lose both than give the Xiao family a chance to continue to develop.
But he didn't expect that at such a critical time, the Xiao family actually caused a huge commotion to attract Yan Lao and them, and finally seized the opportunity to forcibly keep Yan Lao and them.
You must know that Yan Lao and the others are the real pillars of their respective sect families, and they all have a role that cannot be ignored in the ancient world competition plan two years later.
Therefore, they would rather use this way to rescue Yan Lao and the others.
As for the promise made, whether or not it will be fulfilled by the Ancient Realm Dabi two years later is another matter.
These are the thoughts of Lonely Star and others.
At least, at present, they can't reveal anything in the slightest, otherwise, once they cause the wrath of the Xiao family, let alone rescue Yan Lao and them, even they themselves may give their lives here.
As time passed, it was more than an hour in the blink of an eye.
At this time, Xiao Ding, who had left, went and returned, and came back to the living room in the front yard, and behind Xiao Ding, there were several children of the Xiao family.
Their faces were serious, flashing with fine light, and they kept looking at Lone Star and the others.
"Ladies and gentlemen, after my discussion with the elders of the family, this matter has been concluded. Looking at the nervousness on the faces of these head of the family, Xiao Ding smiled indifferently and took the initiative to speak: "Old Yan, we can let you take them away, but the conditions you put forward must also be attached." ”
As soon as these words came out, it was obvious that the Xiao family had agreed to their conditions.
Immediately, Lone Star and many of the head of the family were all happy, but Baili Lonely's face was solemn, and he asked in a calm tone: "Xiao family master, I don't know what your additional conditions are?"
He has not yet lost his mind, and the conditions attached are sometimes more difficult to do than the formal ones, and it is even more difficult to agree.
Hearing Baili Lonely's words, the heads of the family who were originally cheering also set their eyes on Xiao Ding's body for the first time.
At this time, they also reacted completely, and they had not yet reached the time to be happy.
"It's very simple, the conditions you promised will take two years to be realized, once that time comes, what will you do if you tear it up?" Xiao Ding's eyes flashed slightly, without any hesitation, and he said directly: "So, if you want to let Yan Lao and them go now, you must give a guarantee that you will follow your promise." ”
Bastard!
As soon as Xiao Ding's words came out, all the heads of the family were full of anger, what were their identities? How could they be deceitful in this matter, once the news leaked out, how could they gain a foothold in the ancient realm?
As everyone knows, in their hearts, there is actually such a seed, although it has not yet sprouted and taken root, but in two years, what kind of result will it be, that is something that no one can predict.
"Master Xiao, what are our identities?
"The lonely city lord has misunderstood, in my heart, I am naturally willing to believe you, after all, you are all old-timers in the ancient realm, but this decision is not something I can do. Xiao Ding was still very indifferent, and said unhurriedly: "Anyway, the conditions are already here, as long as you can do it, then Yan Lao and they can take it away at any time." ”
"On the contrary, if you can't do it, then come from there, go back there, as for Yan Lao and them, according to the agreement, wait until two years before leaving the Xiao family. ”
When it came to the last sentence, Xiao Ding's attitude became very resolute, and he had no intention of continuing to negotiate at all.
Obviously, either agree to the conditions of the Xiao family and leave with Yan Lao and them, or refuse and leave the Xiao family directly, there is no other choice at all.
