Chapter 341: Lu Guo surrendered
In the White Jade City of Qi State, Lin Xiao suddenly received a report from Ye Nanyu, saying that Lu Yan wanted to see him, which surprised Lin Xiao, but soon Lin Xiao guessed what Lu Yan wanted to do, and Lu Guo confessed.
"It's not easy."
Lin Xiao sighed at this, he was also very clear about Lu Yan's character and resume, hundreds of years ago, Lu Yan was also a heroic teenager in the Pure Yang Palace, since he was born, he was trained in a key way, and he made great progress all the way until he took charge of the Pure Yang Palace.
Lu Yan is a cautious person, with good means, outstanding qualifications, extraordinary understanding, and tenacious will, it can be said that he is a very qualified leader, and the Pure Yang Palace is thriving in his hands, and his strength has grown a lot.
This kind of person is also extremely arrogant, he would rather die than give in, Lin Xiao hit him several times, but Lu Yan did not have any depression, but continued to learn lessons and improve his strength.
In the past twenty or thirty years, Lu Yan has also worked hard to develop his strength, and he is extremely crazy, he suppressed Li Changqing, a high-level monk who threatens him, but for most of the low-level monks, he is constantly bribed, and he is doing his best to cultivate talented disciples.
And the four major families of Baiyucheng did not do to sort out the internal affairs, but it was easy for Lu Yan to carry out drastic reforms, eliminate those mediocre and useless managers, and promote many talents.
For this reason, the night owl was extremely concerned, although he repeatedly attacked and sabotaged Lu Yan's great cause, it still did not prevent Lu Yan's strength from increasing rapidly.
If Lian Yunzong hadn't ambushed Lin Xiao, in twenty years at most, Lin Xiao would have to launch a campaign against Lu Guo, completely interrupting Lu Yan's illusions and preventing their revival.
But he didn't expect that as soon as Lian Yun Sect came out, he had an unexpected gain, that is, he completely defeated Lu Yan's illusions, which made him understand that no matter how hard he tried and struggled, it would be useless, and he could not be stronger than Lian Yun Sect that had broken through the Divine Void for hundreds of years, so even if he immediately broke through the Divine Void now, it was useless.
In terms of overall strength, the Dao Fruit Tree of the Heavenly Saint Sect has matured several times, and after each time it matures, in addition to deducting a few Dao Ji Dan used in the auction, at least four or more Dao Gang monks can be cultivated for the Heavenly Saint Sect, and if the auctioned Dao Ji Dan is auctioned off by the rest of the Martial Kingdom, then the strength of the entire Martial Kingdom will increase again.
Therefore, whether it is high-end combat power or overall strength, the Pure Yang Palace no longer has any advantages, so Lu Yan's backbone was broken, and he decided to surrender.
Although this news made Lin Xiao overjoyed, he couldn't let Lin Xiao go back immediately, the last time he fooled Ye Jiuji in the name of Lan Lingyu, it was considered to stabilize the situation, but it was not safe.
Lin Xiao and Lan Lingyu knew what their relationship was, fortunately, this Ye Jiuji's status in Tiangongmen was not very good, and he was not familiar with these people, otherwise he could puncture Lin Xiao's lies with just one note.
However, Ye Jiuji hasn't left yet, although Ye Jiuji is from the Tiangongmen of Zhongzhou, he is a disciple of the second-rate forces in Zhongzhou, but among the second-rate forces, there are many Shenxu monks, he is not a core disciple, so his net worth is not rich, and it is difficult to get some good spiritual materials in Zhongzhou, and he wants to try his luck in Baiyu City.
Although Nanzhou is poorer and weaker than Zhongzhou, but that is overall, in fact, there are not many good things in Nanzhou, especially in the wilderness, many places have not been set foot in for thousands of years, elixirs, spirit wood, ores, etc., may be obtained by low-level disciples, most of these things will flow into the material distribution center of Baiyu City, so this Ye Jiuji really got a lot of good things.
In order to prevent things from repeating, Lin Xiao didn't dare to leave immediately, and continued to stay in Baiyucheng, so after a few months, Ye Jiuji felt that all the good things in Baiyucheng had been collected, so he reluctantly left, and when he left, Lin Xiao also left secretly.
Flying all the way south, no one dared to ambush Lin Xiao this time, half a month later, Lin Xiao appeared outside the Pure Yang Palace, and Ye Nanyu was already waiting here.
"Master, the news has been confirmed, Lu Yan does have the intention of surrendering, and it should be the reason why the head of the sect killed Lian Yunzong"
"I've already guessed that I'm surprised that Lu Yan wants to surrender, what about the other six major families, what do you think of this?"
"The six major families and the Pure Yang Palace are in the same line, and their interests are very involved, once the Pure Yang Palace surrenders, their interests will inevitably involve a lot, but the strength of the six major families is like that, the opposition of a few people is not to worry, most people can still see the situation clearly, and they also agree to surrender."
"Very good, I know, it seems that this big trouble of Lu Guo is going to be eliminated, and who else knows about this matter in Wu Guo"
"Very few people, for the time being, except for the Daogang monks of the four sects of the Danyang Sect, no one knows"
"However, you immediately send a message back to the sect and tell Li Yiwen that let the four sect masters of the Danyang Sect go to Gongming City to discuss, if the Lu State surrenders, how should we deal with it, and what measures we should take to suppress them, the surrender is also conditional, after the results of the discussion, a larger meeting will be held to inform the forces of the entire Wu State. ”
"Yes, Master"
"Let's go to Yujing City now and see Lu Yan"
"Master, this is not good, in case Lu Yan sneaks up, this person is extremely loyal to the Pure Yang Palace, and it is possible that the net will be broken."
"Don't worry, he doesn't have the ability, if he dares to do it, then Lu Guo will not surrender, but destroy the country"
Lin Xiao shook his head, Wu Guo is stronger than Lu Guo, this is the general trend, even if Lin Xiao is dead, there is Li Muxue and Condensation, it is easy to destroy him Lu Guo, Lu Yan will never do this.
After making preparations, Lin Xiao walked to the gate of Yujing City openly, and suddenly the chickens and dogs in the city jumped, and countless people ran wildly, for fear that Lin Xiao was coming to attack.
However, Lu Yan soon appeared, and personally ordered the alarm to be lifted, and welcomed Lin Xiao into Yujing City, and the news was quickly known by the spies of the Eclipse Kingdom and the Cangguo Kingdom, and reported to Wu Muyang and Yun Shaoyang, which made the two of them scold immediately.
"Master Lin"
"Old Ancestor Lu, I heard that you want to see me, what is the so-called matter?"
"Master Lin, you and I won't play those polite things, Lu Guo is defeated, Lu Guo is invincible to Wu Guo, Lu Yan admits this, but tens of millions of mortals in Lu Guo, hundreds of thousands of monks are innocent, and they should not pay for Lu Yan's fault alone, and pay for their lives, Lin Zhangmen thinks it's right?"
"That's right, to destroy your Lu country, my martial country will also have to pay a huge price, the preciousness of life, Lin is unforgettable, naturally very agreeable"
Lin Xiao replied, it is not easy to develop the Wu Kingdom, if you really destroy the Lu Kingdom, the personnel and property will pay a great price, and if there is no need, Lin Xiao is naturally unwilling to do this.
"Thank you to Master Lin for thinking about thousands of living beings and avoiding the misery of Lu Guo's lives, in this case, I, Lu Guo, am willing to negotiate peace with Wu Guo, and the two sides will turn hostility into jade silk, what does Master Lin think?"
"Peace talks are okay, but the posture of the Lu State must be surrender, and I am not afraid to tell you that the Wu State was originally a part of the Lu State, and it has been pressed by your Pure Yang Palace for so long, you must come to the peace talks with the attitude of surrender, and achieve the invincible national morale of our Wu State"
Lin Xiao replied that peace talks and surrender are two different things, and Lu Guo must surrender to build the morale of the whole country, not equal peace talks.
"Yes"
"That's good, with this foundation, you can continue to talk, Lu Laozu, I'm not good at negotiating, if you have any requirements, show it directly"
"Okay, Lu Guo surrendered, but Wu Guo must not humiliate Lu Guo for no reason, and must not be cleaned..."
"Stop, Old Ancestor Lu, you don't have any sincerity at all, are you surrendering?"
"What does Master Lin mean..."
"Forget it, wait for half a month, half a month later, a delegation from the Wu Kingdom will come to Yujing City, and then the two delegations will negotiate, what about you, also hold a meeting of Lu State, talk about how to surrender, how"
"Good"
"That's it, I'm tired"
"Lu said goodbye"
Lu Yan's posture was extremely low, and he left quickly, while Lin Xiao asked Ye Nanyu to charter an inn, hung up a sign saying that he was closed to guests, and refused to see anyone.
The news of the surrender of the Lu State was officially spread, which immediately shocked countless people, and the Heavenly Eclipse Kingdom and the Cang Kingdom quickly sent people to inquire about the news, and the internal Lu State also set off an uproar.
In a well-armed country like Lü, there are countless loyalists and many diehards, but the surrender advocated by Lü Yan has made many diehards disheartened.
Many people have advised Lu Yan not to surrender, even if the fish is dead and the net is broken, and some people have suggested that Lu Yan gather masters, kill Lin Xiao, and cut off the Optimus Prime of Wuguo.
However, Lu Yan did not agree to these suggestions, which made it extremely difficult for the radicals in Lu State to accept, some people were disappointed in Chunyang Palace, left Lu State, and were willing to become loose cultivators, and some people wanted to sabotage the negotiations, and even wanted to storm the inn where Lin Xiao lived, but they were also blocked by Lu Yan.
In general, the major forces of the Lu State still fought in unison, and they knew that there was no good end to fighting against the Wu State, as long as the conditions of the Wu State were not very harsh, they were willing to surrender.
The negotiation mission of Lu Guo was also quickly formed, and some agreements were quickly reached and the bottom line was set.
Half a month later, the Wuguo delegation arrived, a total of more than 30 people, the lowest were Zifu monks, and the leader was Geng Yunlong of the Danyang Sect.
The Wuguo delegation stayed in the inn under Lin Xiao's package, Lin Xiao also talked with the mission in detail, although Lin Xiao already knew the bottom line of the negotiation, he had to help Wuguo fight for interests as much as possible.
Geng Yunlong personally explained to Lin Xiao the meaning and bottom line of the terms, as well as the possible contention, etc., and after chatting for a day, Lin Xiao more or less had a general understanding.
The negotiations between the two countries have not officially begun, but there are many more horses in Yujing City, and the Eclipse Country and Cangguo have also officially sent missions here, wanting to get the first information, so that the two countries can have a good defense, and the entire country at the southwest end of Nanzhou has focused on Yujing City, and everyone knows that this negotiation will determine the situation of more than a dozen countries in the southwest of Nanzhou.
