Chapter 842: The Last Straw
Different from the First Sword Sect and the Soldier God Sect is the Dan Sect, because the battle of the three sects and the four sects began with the siege of Danzong by the Yuquan Sect and the Yunxi Sect, and the Dan Sect has become the most fierce battlefield, after a fierce battle, Xia Fan simply detonated the Dan Sect's mountain protection array, completely razing the Dan Sect's dojo to the ground. This also made the original Danzong Dojo completely disappear, not to mention the ruins of the broken walls, not even a large stone, and it was impossible to build a dojo bare.
In this way, Danzong didn't have to worry about repairing the old or building the new, because they had no choice but to build a new dojo.
After discussing with the elders in the sect, Mu Sheng finally decided not to build a new dojo within the territory of the Great Han Dynasty, but to move to the territory that Xia Fan had brought down.
It's just that this decision is good, but it is not easy to re-select a suitable place to build a dojo, the reason is very simple, the dojo of Danzong needs not only beautiful mountains and rivers and sufficient spiritual energy, but more importantly, it is convenient to attract the flames of the earth veins for refining pills. If there was no such a great location, they would rather not build a dojo for the time being.
In fact, the Soldier God Sect of the Explosive Master did not want to move the place easily, and part of the reason was the same as that of the Dan Sect. The Soldier God Sect's refining tools also need to use the flames drawn from the ground, and the flames of their original dojo are just right for them, and they are also worried that they will not be able to find such a suitable leyline flame in another place.
At this time, Mu Sheng came over, mainly to discuss with Xia Fan, and wanted to get his permission, so that the people of Danzong could investigate his territory and find a suitable place to build a dojo.
It's just that before Mu Sheng had a chance to talk to Xia Fan in detail, Xia Fan first told them about the conditions he gave when the three sects asked for a truce before.
"Hmph, they started the battle, and now they won't fight if they don't say it's big, it's really cheap for them!" Jian said ruthlessly and coldly, his face full of resentment. Although the losses of the One Sword Sect in this battle were relatively small, the fact that the dojo was fine did not mean that the personnel were not damaged. Because the disciples of the One Sword Sect were very warlike themselves, and most of them were charging forward during battles, the number of casualties was quite large.
This also makes Jian Ruthless's hatred for the three sects quite strong, and he can't wait to destroy all the three sects to relieve his hatred. However, as a sect master, he naturally understood that there was nothing wrong with Xia Fan doing this, and it was even quite necessary.
In fact, with Xia Fan's current prestige, not to mention that he did this very right, and he also got the support of Bangye, even if he did it wrong and it was still a unilateral decision made by himself, Sanzong would support him even if he suffered a loss. It can also be seen from this that Xia Fan's influence among the four sects is already quite high.
Of course, Sanzong can barely follow him once or twice, and if there are more times, no one will listen to him anymore. This is also a very normal thing.
Xia Fan understands this truth, so he will not do such things that corrupt his character.
Just like this truce with the Three Sects, even if the sword is ruthless, it is a little unhappy, but if you think about it carefully, you will not suffer a loss, and naturally you will not have any resentment against Xia Fan. Even in the future, when they get the compensation, maybe they will be grateful to Xia Fan. This is how Xia Fan gets along with his allies.
"How could it be cheaper for them. Xia Fan shook his head with a smile and said: "The battle between our four sects and the three sects has suffered great losses, although there are no dead people in my Qiankun Sect, but most of the dojo has been destroyed, and the three of you sects have suffered serious casualties, these are all necessary for the three sects to compensate." I have a lot of trivial matters on hand now, and it is unlikely that I will talk to them in person, so I can only entrust this important matter to you, and I don't need to be polite when I want compensation, anyway, the three religions have a strong background, even if I ask them for more things, they will not force them to turn their faces and continue to fight with us. ”
"Xia Fan, how much is good?" Mu Sheng looked at Xia Fan and asked.
"It's hard to say, the dojos of our four sects have been damaged, this is all caused by the three sects, they deserve compensation, and there are casualties in each sect, and the bereavement or something has to be given, it's not easy to train disciples, and thousands of resources are spent, and now they are killed by the people of the three sects, can't they compensate?" Speaking of this, Xia Fan showed three fingers and said: "You guys will calculate these losses and everything, add them together to estimate the total amount, and then ask the three sects for five times the compensation." ”
"What if they don't give it?" said Sword Ruthlessly. It's nothing to let him go to fight and fight, but if he wants to negotiate with the Three Sects, he really doesn't know what to do.
"Let's ask for the price, they sit on the ground and pay back, and the left and right are just talking, and at least three times the compensation. At this time, Xia Fan shook his fingers that he showed earlier, and then said: "If they refuse to give it alive or dead, then you don't have to be polite, just turn your face, and then continue to fight, this is called fighting to promote peace." It is our purpose to compensate, but the real intention is to weaken the foundation of the three sects, only this time to cut their flesh and draw their blood, not only to make them painful but also to make them weak, next time they want to do something to our four sects, they will have scruples. And with these benefits, we can recover our vitality faster, so this matter is very important, and the two sect masters must handle it well. ”
"Understood. Jian Ruthless and Mu Sheng nodded solemnly.
They didn't ask why Xia Fan and Bang Ye didn't get involved in this matter, one is that Xia Fan and Bang Ye must have their own things to do, at least they also need to stay and sit in the Qiankun Sect. The second is that the current strength of the two is there, and their identities are naturally different. This kind of negotiation of slapping the table and glaring at the eyes is really not good to participate in again, after all, the Grandmaster Realm still pays attention to the skin.
The matter was properly discussed, Jian ruthlessly left first to gather people, and Mu Sheng also sent an elder back to Yunhuanhu through the teleportation array and then called some elders over, not to fight, but to support the scene, so as not to be too shabby, and the momentum could not suppress the three sects.
"Xia Fan, I have something I want to discuss with you. Mu Sheng said and explained Danzong's plan.
Xia Fan was naturally quite happy when he heard that Danzong was going to move the dojo to his own territory, but he didn't show it on his face at all, but pondered for a moment before saying: "If Sect Master Mu and you want to move to my territory alone, I will never say anything, but if your sect wants to find a suitable place to build a dojo on my territory, I don't object to it, but there are some ugly things to say in advance, so as not to make each other's faces look bad in the future." ”
"Please. Mu Sheng was not upset by Xia Fan's businesslike attitude, because this is what doing big things should look like. The villain first and then the gentleman will avoid trouble in the future.
"If you want to build a dojo, I have no objection, I can give you the place where you fancy it, but your dojo cannot be expanded indefinitely, nor can it encroach on the land that belongs to the people. Xia Fan said.
"What if we need fields?" Mu Sheng asked.
"You may buy land from the people, but do not annex land on a large scale, especially not by force, otherwise I will not agree, and whatever you buy on the land you buy must be taxed according to the law, which is not negotiable. Xia Fan looked at Mu Sheng and said: "I am also a cultivator, I will try my best to give you some convenience, but there must be no extralegal places on my territory, please remember this, if the disciples of your sect rely on themselves as cultivators to do mischief and kill innocents, I will never spare them." ”
"I can guarantee that my Dan Sect will never tolerate and condone such a scum disciple. Mu Sheng hurriedly expressed his position, and his words were resolute.
"That's good. Xia Fan then said a few more requests. It's not very strict, but it can be regarded as some rules.
Xia Fan didn't expect Danzong to honestly submit to his majesty, because it was unrealistic, at least at the moment, it was unlikely. But he had to at least formulate a mutually acceptable rule, or first draw a frame that the cultivation sect could not overcome, in order to restrain them and avoid the existence of forces on his own territory that were not under his own control and could not be controlled by himself.
Although Xia Fan did not explicitly say that Danzong must obey his own control, he would never allow them to act arbitrarily and unscrupulously. He didn't intend to accept Danzong as a vassal, but he definitely didn't allow them to be high above his own power, so Xia Fan had these requirements, and he also hoped to make an attempt to see how to make the imperial power and the cultivation sect live in harmony and go their own way.
...............
Qingyu Mountain, located in the northeast of the Blue Jade Country, the highest peak is more than 3,000 zhang, the mountain range is winding, stretching for more than 1,300 miles, it can be said to be the first mountain in the northeast of the Blue Jade Country.
Because the mountain stone contains copper, after the wind and rain, it gradually turned blue-green, and the mountain stone was eroded by the wind and rain in addition to a peculiar texture, it looks as if it is a piece of feathers, so it is named Qingyu Mountain.
Since there are mountains and they are steep and steep, it is inevitable that it will become a battleground for soldiers. Throughout the ages, there have been countless battles here.
For this reason, the Blue Jade Kingdom built a fortress-like city on Qingyu Mountain. The city is named after the mountain, called Qingyu City, and there are hundreds of thousands of garrisons here all year round, which can not only deter all parts of the northeast and avoid the rebellion of the mountain people, but also to prevent the invasion of the neighboring Shenmu Kingdom.
But today, Qingyu City has become the last straw in Lan Haolin's hands.
Because after the repeated attacks of Yukong Yue not long ago, Lan Haolin was defeated and retreated, and there was not much left of the vast territory that was originally in his hands, and he now retreated to Qingyu City to resist stubbornly, wanting to rely on the strength of the mountain high city to survive.
