Youjiao.

Captain's room.

"First of all, let's confirm one thing."

"In this war, you illegally detained 125 of our employees for false and groundless reasons, and in addition to this, 16 spirit ships, 7 shops and warehouses were seized."

"Your actions have caused us a lot of property damage...... Therefore, our side was forced to start this war out of desperation. ”

"Fellow Daoist Shion, do you agree with this statement?"

Su Ye clasped his fingers, his elbows against the table, and said in a deep voice.

"I agree."

Shion nodded blankly, her magnificent dark purple eyes, dull and haggard.

Today's Aster wears a simple pure white dress, this dress did not damage her appearance, but added a bit of the temperament of a goddess in distress and hardship.

Just like after the bitter cold, the wax plum in full bloom is fragrant and fragrant, and the dark fragrance is far away.

"Therefore...... In light of this. Su Ye continued.

"In order to maintain long-term peace and promote common development, we have the following demands......

"First of all, in order to compensate for the losses suffered by us as a result of the war, we have the right to claim compensation."

"At the same time, in order to avoid the recurrence of such incidents, due to your misconduct in forcibly retaining our nationals and seizing our property during this incident......"

"We have the right to set up special trade zones in six cities in your waters, to allow our personnel to reside, and to appoint consuls to take charge of business matters and to negotiate customs duties, so that trade and commerce will not be hindered......"

"Further, in the Special Economic Zone, our personnel shall enjoy extraterritorial jurisdiction, including, but not limited to, our independent rights in legal, judicial and administrative matters......"

"The specific scope, conditions of application and implementation of extraterritoriality will be formulated with the joint efforts of both sides, and will be reviewed periodically to ensure its reasonableness and fairness......"

Su Ye's words, the rights claimed, summarize.

It is roughly divided into four points: indemnity, concession, negotiated tariffs, and extraterritoriality.

Indemnity, well understood.

The property losses of Nan Yaoguang Company and the expatriates must be compensated.

The combined fleet spans nearly 10,000 nautical miles, threatening the Spider Demon Island, and expeditioning to the open sea, and the spirit stones spent in this war also need to be paid by the Imperial Spirit Sect!

Gee.

Enough arrogance!

Send troops to war, even the military expenses, the other party has to pay compensation!

But.

That's the privilege of the winner!

The winner, is not to blame!

And in addition to the indemnity.

Concessions, negotiated tariffs, and extraterritoriality.

These three British-style peace terms are the privileges that Su Ye grabbed for the sake of Nan Yaoguang Company to expand its business in the waters of the Imperial Spirit Sect!

"That's right, no way."

"In this era, if you want to open up markets and open up sales channels in the open sea, this kind of unequal treaty is a necessity."

Su Ye shrugged, quite helpless.

In this era, the trade between the various immortal cultivation regions was relatively conservative.

Even, compared to the interior of Xuanzhou.

The commercial tradition of the Yaoguang Islands is already relatively strong.

After all, in the archipelago immortal cultivation realm, the output of each island is limited, and if you want to continue to develop, you must trade with other islands to exchange resources.

Such an environment makes the trade atmosphere of the islands relatively relaxed.

However.

This relaxation, in the vast majority of cases, is confined to the sphere of influence of the same sect.

For example, the Qingxuan Sea and the Imperial Spirit Sea ......

And the Chamber of Commerce in the Qingxuan Sea will be constrained when they go to trade in the Imperial Spirit Sea.

Vice versa.

The hegemon-level forces have both demand and rejection for the Offshore Chamber of Commerce.

Demand for overseas specialties brought by the Chamber of Commerce.

But at the same time, there is also a guard against these chambers of commerce...... And like Nan Yaoguang Company, the forces with the background of Qingxuanzong are even more fearful!

Therefore, in the light and dark, all kinds of constraints!

This makes the Outer Sea Chamber of Commerce need to spend a high fee on the profits it earns, and make a relationship with the monks of the Imperial Spirit Sect.

This undoubtedly has an impact on the development of Nanyaoguang Company.

After the peace treaty is reached, this constraint will become a thing of the past...... The Yuling Sea Area, which is so vast that it is not inferior to the territory of the Qingxuan Sea Area, will be completely open to Nan Yaoguang Company! ”

"Moreover, our personnel can also enjoy privileges......" Su Ye's eyes narrowed slightly, and a smile flashed.

It is foreseeable that this peace agreement can bring him a lot of profits!

Moreover, Su Ye was also able to use this peace treaty as a starting point to exert influence in the sea area of the Imperial Spirit Sect to transform this sect into a subsidiary force under his command!

……

"Of course, to achieve this, you need the cooperation of Aster......"

"Fellow Daoist Shion, I hope that we can reach a consensus on the main contents before the formal conclusion of the peace treaty...... Of course, you can have your opinion. ”

Su Ye said softly in a negotiated tone.

Aster has this value.

The Sun Eclipse Demon Spider Emperor, within the Imperial Spirit Sect, is revered as the Supreme Elder, and his qualifications and status are far beyond the so-called 'Four Shadows' and 'Sect Master'.

If Ziyuan can cooperate, then Su Ye's plan to control the Imperial Spirit Sect can be said to be nine out of ten!

And, as a fourth-order demon, Aster has a strong resistance.

Su Ye confirmed that even if she splits her soul with blood and light, she also has the ability to resist and ensure a certain degree of autonomy in action.

Of course, Su Ye has a final plan: detonate the compression implanted in the Aster's cerebral cortex, explode her brain, and kill it.

But.

Su Ye instinctively didn't want to do this.

"At this stage, at least twenty years, the fourth-order combat power I can control is just that."

"Just killed?"

"What a waste!"

Fourth-order beings, in this Yaoguang open sea, there are only a handful of existences, often in a large sea area, there are only one or two!

Therefore, Su Ye is willing to respect Shion and try to reach a cooperative relationship with her.

However, to his surprise, Aster's reaction seemed to be a little wrong.

"Huh?"

"Well, I agree."

The tall royal sister with purple hair and purple eyes, her voice trembled slightly, and her chin lowered her eyebrows.

The attitude is docile, and he shows obedience to Su Ye.

Good behaved?

Is this normal?

Su Ye raised her eyebrows, and her handsome face was full of surprise.

According to his thoughts, with the status of Aster, even if he was defeated at this time and became a prisoner, it shouldn't be this attitude, right?

'Hypocrisy, patience and dormancy? ’

In Su Ye's mind, without thinking, a thought flashed through him.

This is what he thinks is the most plausible explanation.

But.

Su Ye's heart was a little hesitant.

It's a bit too much of a disguise to this extent, isn't it?

Moreover, this performance.

If it's acting, it's really ......

"It's bad enough......" Su Ye's eyes narrowed slightly.

She wouldn't think that this kind of acting could fool me, would she? ’

Your acting skills are not good......

Thinking in his heart, Su Ye didn't show it at all.

He pondered for a moment, looked at Aster, and asked in a deep voice.

"Fellow Daoist Ziyuan, are you sure you agree?"

"You really don't need to, think about it a little longer?"

"Hmm."

Shion said in a low voice.

'What's going on...... The mood is also stable and has not changed much...... Doesn't feel like acting? 'Now, I can't fix it for Su Ye.

He used the power of his divine sense to sense Ziyuan's emotions, but as a result, he found nothing.

Aster's mood is stable and calm.

There are no common emotions such as malice, unwillingness, and humiliation...... At most, just some?

'Fear? Su Ye chewed on her emotions, a little surprised.

No?

I don't know much about you, do I?

Why is it so fearful?

Could it be that I fought too hard before......

Not really, right?

The fourth-order demon who is almost a thousand years old is comparable to Frilian's lifespan, is it so psychologically fragile?

Su Ye's expression was a little strange.

After muttering for a long time, he comforted: "That's okay...... Rest well and recuperate from your injuries. ”

"Kyaukjiao, take Aster Daoist friends back." Su Ye commanded.

"Yes, master."

Crunch.

The wooden door to the captain's cabin opens automatically.

Wearing a crown robe, the black-haired and red-eyed ship spirit Lori walked in, humming a little song.

Seeing Kyaukyao enter the door, Su Ye withdrew his gaze, his consciousness turned, and he thought about another thing.

For him, meeting with Shion and reaching an agreement' has come to an end and is over.

However, at this moment.

Syllable.

A hand grabbed his sleeve.

It's asters.

The slender white palm is trembling.

Shion sat on the chair with her head bowed, her legs together, and her body slightly turned so that she was completely facing away from Kyauk-kyuk.

"Don't ......"

"Help me ......"

"Huh?"

Su Ye's eyes moved slightly, and his face was stunned.

After the appearance of Kyaukjiao, Aster's originally stable mood fluctuated greatly...... Intense fear arises!

And what surprised Su Ye even more was that the target of this fear was actually Kyaukjiao?!

Ha?

Su Ye was surprised.

He sensed [in the same tone] and asked Kyaukyao: "Kyaukyao, have you done anything to her?" ”

He really didn't know.

Aster's escape level is very superb.

Even though there was a traceability mark, as an aid, after she escaped, she also hunted for sixteen hours, a day and a night, before she was captured!

After the fight, Su Ye was sleepy.

After forcibly explaining the matter and bleeding himself, he fell asleep.

With the cultivation of a crystallized real person, it is true that he can stay awake for days and nights, but the problem is that the high-intensity battle is extremely terrifying due to the loss of mental power!

Moreover, Su Ye also used [Divine Blood Proliferation], this ability has outstanding effects, and it can greatly increase the [Heart of the Hanhai] and [Heavenly Calamity Monarch]!

But at the same time, the sequelae are also troublesome.

The high concentration of divine blood has a significant impact on Su Ye's mental nature.

Therefore, immediately after the battle, it is necessary to perform bloodletting to reduce the concentration of divine blood and avoid affecting the personality...... Su Ye didn't want to become a monster to kill.

And the feeling of weakness caused by a large amount of bloodletting also made him even more tired and sleepy.

Therefore, for the disposal of Aster, before he fell asleep, he handed it over to Kyaukjiao...... With the wisdom of Kyaukyao, there should be nothing wrong with doing this...... Should?

Su Ye was a little unsure.

Because of Aster's fear, it is obvious that it cannot be faked.

"I don't have it......"

Kyaukjiao was very aggrieved.

She thinks she's doing a pretty good job.

Jiaojiao complained bitterly: "Master, my operation is very difficult, this stupid woman with purple hair has been moving, which makes me very hard......"

"Hmm......" Su Ye groaned.

Listening to what Kyaujiao said, she really didn't seem to do anything......

Wait a minute?!

Su Ye frowned and found a spot.

"It's not...... Why is she moving?! ”

"You...... Didn't give her an anesthetic? ”

Su Ye looked strange and asked rhetorically.

"Hit it."

"I still give her five times the dose of anesthetic according to ordinary people!"

"It's just ......" Jiaojiao paused, and said with some doubts: "I don't know why, she woke up halfway through the operation?" ”

Su Ye: "......"

There was a long silence.

"She's awake?"

"Hmm." Kyaukjiao nodded calmly.

"You...... Why don't you give her a refill of the anesthetic? The corners of Su Ye's mouth twitched.

"Huh? Didn't the owner's medical handbook say that 'for the same patient, it is not advisable to have a second anesthesia, which is prone to addiction and physical load'? ”

"So, I didn't give ......," Kyaukjiao said honestly.

"Hiss......"

Su Ye gasped.

He closed his eyes and rubbed his temples.

Half an hour later.

"In other words, you operated on her while she was awake and without anesthesia...... And, is it the second half of the surgery? ”

"Including, cutting open the skull and implanting a bloodflame flake?"

"Hmm."

"This ...... Any questions? ”

Jiaojiao tilted her head and asked rhetorically.

"Hmm......"

Su Ye's expression was strange.

He didn't know what to say, this thing...... It's ridiculous.

All I can say is......

Kyauk-kyauk, have you considered changing your career to a blood servant?

……

End the conversation.

Su Ye calmed Zion.

The matter was reluctantly closed.

After all, this matter can't be handled.

Su Ye knew.

As the spirit of the formation, Kyaukjiao intelligence is not inferior to ordinary people, but after all, it is not a human being, and it does not know how to be flexible.

For the orders given by Su Ye, she will implement them perfectly 100% and without any discount...... This is the mental nature of the Spirit of the Formation!

Blame Kyauk-Kyauk...... Kind of unreasonable.

"I can only say...... I didn't write this medical manual......"

"My pot, I recognize!"

Su Ye sighed.

……

Peel through this time.

The Youjiao flew at high speed and returned to Spider Island.

On the island, the beast tide has lost its control, and after heavy casualties, it has dispersed...... Combined fleet, capture the coastal stronghold of Spider Island!

And, launch an offensive inland.

However, the area of Spider Demon Island is very large, equivalent to Borneo in Su Ye's previous life, with more than 10 million mortals and six immortal cities with a population of millions!

These immortal cities, so far, the coalition forces have not taken a single city.

The Weiyuan-class spirit ship belongs to the traditional spirit ship, which cannot fly to the sky and the earth, nor can it sail on dry land.

Lacking firepower support, the coalition forces could not break the third-order formation of Xiancheng in a short period of time, and the battle situation fell into a stalemate.

On the side of the Imperial Spirit Sect, there is no intention of counterattacking.

The main thing is that you can't beat it.

There are many fake pills in the coalition army, as well as Tianhe and Liuyun, two crystallized real people, and the four shadows of the Imperial Spirit Sect are gone, how to fight?

Therefore, they can only drag out time and numb themselves with illusions.

"Wait for the Supreme Elder to triumph, these clowns can be destroyed with a flip of their palms!"

"But it's a pity."

"Did I win......"

Su Ye sneered.

Rumble!

The Youjiao shattered the clouds and descended on the Spider Demon Island!

On the same day, the Imperial Spirit Sect descended.
