Chapter 325: The True Mission

Half an hour later, the group sat back in the central tent.

Buss, who was seriously injured, had already been carried down with Sparrow for treatment. Among the high-ranking people who accompanied the Kuni tribe, there happened to be those who were proficient in healing. Combined with the healing elixir, it won't take them a few days to heal initially. After all, Lu Chengfeng didn't make a dead move.

However, the focus of everyone's attention at the moment is not the two injured masters.

After the First World War, Lu Chengfeng showed unimaginable strength, which gave these Bantu people a lot of shock. If before, they were still full of confidence in themselves, wishful thinking that the empire was mired in war in the south, and did not want to go to war with the north again. Now, they are not as sure as they used to be. In particular, several masters were told that Patriarch Buwanga had been injured more seriously than expected when he fought against the Ice Dragon. This news greatly shook their confidence.

Having a Saint-level master pressing the formation is completely different from not.

The reason why the Bantu people have been able to inherit it safely until now is certainly because of the harsh environment of the snowy region of Ston, but it also has a lot to do with the presence of a holy order. If Buwanga was injured and could not exert the power of the Holy Order, then the Bantu would only be a second-rate force at best. But if there is a holy order, they can stand firmly on the ice fields of the continent.

As soon as the two aspects were combined, and then thought of the conditions promised by Lu Chengfeng before, the thoughts of many masters were shaken.

At this moment, although the southward movement still dominates the discussion of tents, it is no longer as one-sided as before, but there is a debate. A large part of the controversy lies in how many perverted masters like Lu Chengfeng are still in the empire. A sixth-order can defeat an eighth-order, so wouldn't a human genius eighth-order master be able to challenge their three major clan leaders?

As the center of everything, Lu Chengfeng was sitting in the center of the big tent at the moment, seemingly closing his eyes and recuperating, but he was actually eavesdropping on the conversations of the masters around him.

The results were undoubtedly gratifying to him.

At this moment, the curtain of the tent was lifted again, and Renaud and Orka walked in again. This time, Orka's eyes, which had always been in good spirits, swept over Lu Chengfeng, paused slightly, and then continued to walk to the top and sit down.

The low noise in the tent suddenly disappeared.

"Now revisit the issue of peace talks with the Empire. Orka coughed dryly and continued the previous topic: "Do you think you should insist on going south, or should you withdraw your troops in exchange for material support from the Empire?"

"This ......"

It can be seen that there is still some commotion among the people below, but no one dares to jump out and firmly demand that they go south to war with the empire. Most of the masters still longed to go south on their faces, but they hesitated and refused to take responsibility.

This gives Lu Chengfeng a chance.

He looked around, got up and spoke again, "I must reiterate here that the Empire has been at peace with Bantu for the past few decades. In the years to come, the Empire would like to see this friendship continue. For peace talks, the empire is also very sincere. But if you insist on going south, then I can only say that a war is inevitable. And with a martial artist of my level, there is obviously more than one in the empire. Whether it is war or peace, please decide carefully!"

As soon as he said this, the idea of the Bantu masters present insisting on going south became even weaker.

As if seeing that the situation could be exploited, Renault spoke at the right time and said, "If you want our clan to retreat, it's actually not impossible." In my personal opinion, it is considered the sincerity of the empire to give enough supplies for the winter first. During this period, our first soldiers waited here for the time being. If the Empire is really sincere enough, let's move on. ”

His rhetoric obviously gave the Bantu patriarch a lot of face, and it seemed that he had completely grasped the initiative. But Lu Chengfeng knew that what the empire wanted to see was to procrastinate. As long as the Bantu do not immediately go south, some food and enough supplies for the winter, the empire does not care at all.

It's just that Lu Chengfeng knew that Renault would reiterate that condition.

As he thought, immediately after, after catering to and pacifying his subordinates, Renault officially represented the high-ranking of the three Bantu tribes and proposed to Lu Chengfeng the conditions previously discussed: "When necessary, the empire must send a Holy Rank master to assist us in dealing with the ice dragon Skasa." However, we can share a part of the profits after the kill!"

Obviously, this condition, which they didn't have before, was a little concession they made after seeing Lu Chengfeng's strength with their own eyes.

In this regard, Lu Chengfeng did not protest again.

If it was simply to send the Holy Order to help, the Empire would not be enthusiastic. But if you can still get some of the loot after killing the ice dragon, it is more likely that you can persuade the imperial family to agree.

These Bantu masters also seem to be afraid of the ice dragon Skasa. Hearing the second condition proposed by Renault, they discussed it, and although they still did not agree positively, they also acquiesced. Even if there are still people who are suspicious of Lu Chengfeng and the Lanwu Empire, it is inconvenient to speak again in this case, so they can only observe the follow-up progress in silence for the time being.

Lu Chengfeng was very satisfied with this result. Renault and Orca looked at each other, and they were also relieved.

Early the next morning, after overnight consultations, the high-level officials of the three tribes officially took out a piece of paper. After announcing their decision to his subordinates, Orka, on behalf of the Bantu tribe, solemnly handed over the parchment that resembled a national letter to Lu Chengfeng, and then sent someone to escort Lu Chengfeng out of the snowy region all the way.

When he woke up and found that things had completely changed, Zhu Fei couldn't help but become confused. After missing the two duels last night, he could only watch the Bantu people's attitude towards Lu Chengfeng change, while speculating in his heart about the reason. The suspicion and surprise on that face looked hilarious.

However, although he didn't know why, he was still very happy. Since the Bantu were no longer hostile to them, there should be no risk in this trip. Thinking of the money Lu Chengfeng promised, Zhu Fei couldn't help but make a small calculation in his heart, thinking about how to spend it after he went back.

A day later, Lu Chengfeng and Zhu Fei returned to Mohe.

Compared to the difficulty when I came, it was much easier when I returned. In this town, which has not seen more chaos for a few days, Lu Chengfeng found the person who the third prince confessed at that time, and handed over the negotiation with Bantu and the red parchment letter to the other party. As for the next, it is natural to wait patiently for the response from the third prince's side. Originally, everything was already going very smoothly, but what Lu Chengfeng didn't expect was that it was only one night after he returned to Mohe, and there was a sudden accident when something that was already a certainty happened. Because, the real mission sent by the imperial family to Bantu was finally belatedly arrived after several days of delay and repeated two replacements. The appearance of this delegation made Lu Chengfeng's face gloomy.
