He continued, "As far as I know, your Lin Kingdom has only a history of more than 300 years. Compared with our great Jiuzhou Empire, it is just a baby."

Then, Qin Tian began to tell the vicissitudes of history and thousands of years of civilization of the Jiuzhou Empire, citing many examples to prove the greatness of the Jiuzhou Empire.

Many people felt unhappy after hearing this, thinking it was a disguised form of showing off.

Even if you have a strong foundation, does that mean you can own this island?

Chen Hao was also angry when he saw so many people being rude. He was very excited when he saw Qin Tian say this.

Qin Tian continued, "Just now you said that you can represent the entire Lin Kingdom, and I can understand that you are the elites here. But your quality is so poor, which is enough to prove that the entire Lin Kingdom is made up of some low-class people."

Mo Peng was so angry that he slammed the table, and many generals also stood up, ready to attack Qin Tian.

Even the prepared killers are about to go out.

Qin Tian sneered and said, "What do you think? Do you want to kill me? When I came here, I had already put life and death aside."

At the same time, he said that people in the Kyushu Empire are not afraid of death.

He said, "Just now you didn't stand up to greet me, but now you all stand up. It seems that I have to stimulate you."

Mo Peng then realized that the other party was really good at talking, and that he was accusing him of being impolite. He had originally wanted to give him a warning, but he didn't expect that it would fail in the end.

Although he felt a little uncomfortable, he had to admire the other party's eloquence and courage.

Why don't they have such young people in Lin Country? Most of their young people are infected with bad habits and lack the spirit of hard work and perseverance.

For the sake of the overall situation, Mo Peng could only apologize, ask the killers to retreat, and then let the generals sit down.

He bowed respectfully to Qin Tian to apologize and invited Qin Tian to take a seat.

Qin Tian finally calmed down a little after seeing his attitude.

Afterwards, he and Chen Hao sat down at the main seats.

Chen Hao knew that this confrontation would start with their victory.

Qin Tian made it clear that he didn't want to waste time on nonsense. The island indisputably belonged to the Kyushu Empire, and there was no room for discussion. He emphasized that from a historical perspective, the island had always belonged to the Kyushu Empire. Centuries ago, the dynasty at that time also established a base here, and even a thousand years ago, an emperor established an island here and set up a governor. Therefore, no matter from which perspective, this is the territory of the Kyushu Empire.

Mo Peng countered that these are historical issues. The territory of a country has changed over hundreds and thousands of years, and its ownership cannot be determined based on history alone.

Chen Hao finally couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "So what counts?"

Mo Peng turned to Chen Hao and questioned his identity: "You seem to be just a boatman?"

Chen Hao was about to speak when Qin Tian sneered and pointed out that even the boatman had the right to speak and he was also a patriot.

Mo Peng then proposed that the issue of the ownership of the islands should be resolved internationally through a referendum. If more than half of the countries believe that the islands belong to the Kyushu Empire, they will withdraw.

He thought Qin Tian would be angry, but Qin Tian burst into laughter. After he put away his smile, he said sarcastically: "Don't you think this is funny? The territory of our country actually needs to be decided by a referendum. It's really laughable." He also gave an example, saying that if he followed the referendum method, he could also launch a vote to merge the Lin Kingdom into the Jiuzhou Empire. Is this reasonable?

Although Mo Peng was well-mannered, he couldn't help but stand up and ask Qin Tian what he meant.

Qin Tian replied: "What I mean depends on what irrelevant words you said."

Then, Qin Tian crossed his legs and glanced at the people present with a sarcastic look.

After Mo Peng sat down, he warned Qin Tian and Chen Hao not to think that the two of them could deal with them.

Qin Tian said that they had already put life and death aside, and they were ready for whatever tricks Mo Peng had.

Mo Peng carefully observed Qin Tian's eyes and felt as if countless sharp swords were stabbing at him. He admired this young man more and more, and at the same time lamented why there were no such young people in his country. Qin Tian showed a temperament of fearlessness in the face of danger.

The killers seemed ready to make a move, but without Mo Peng's order, they dared not act rashly. The scene fell into an awkward situation for a while, and no one spoke.

After a while, Mo Peng laughed and suggested not to discuss this issue today, because Qin Tian was a guest from afar, so he should be entertained with a banquet.

Qin Tian asked sarcastically: "Hospitality? Is it the Hongmen Banquet?"

Mo Peng warned Qin Tian to be careful with his words, but Qin Tian asked back: "I have been hunted down so many times along the way. Was it arranged by you? Now you still want me to be careful with my words, you are almost making me laugh to death!"

Mo Peng was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick. He didn't expect Qin Tian to speak so mercilessly.

Qin Tian said that he was here to negotiate, time was tight, and he didn't want to waste time on irrelevant people. He hoped to complete the negotiations as soon as possible. If he was delayed, Mo Peng and others would be sinners for all eternity.

Mo Peng angrily rebuked Qin Tian for going too far, saying that he could not do anything to him just because he was not afraid of death. He emphasized that he was also a general, and the generals present were also powerful. Therefore, the negotiation should be conducted with someone of equal status, and Qin Tian had no power or position, so he was not qualified to negotiate.

Hearing this, Qin Tian picked up a trash can, spat into it, and said, "I didn't want to spit, but your words really made me vomit. Who do you think you are and why do you want to negotiate with someone who is as strong as you? I'm giving you face by being able to negotiate with you." He said that if other people were allowed to negotiate, they would not be qualified.

Chen Hao was very happy when he heard Qin Tian's words, and felt that Qin Tian's words gave him great face.

Qin Tian continued, "I'll give you one more minute. Do you want to negotiate or not?"

Mo Peng looked at the other people he was communicating with, because they had no intention of negotiating with Qin Tian. Moreover, they remembered the scene when Qin Tian saved him before, and he could throw the silver needle accurately from such a long distance. Therefore, they really had no confidence in keeping Qin Tian here. As for the boatman Chen Hao, although they were confident that they could keep him, there was no point in keeping him. Next, Qin Tian began to check the time on his phone. Time passed by minute by minute, and finally one minute passed. Qin Tian asked, "How is it? Is there any result?"

Mo Peng answered firmly: "This island must be ours."

This result seemed to be within Qin Tian's expectations. He immediately stood up and said, "In this case, there is no need to talk anymore."

He glanced at Chen Hao, who was about to leave with him. Many generals present hoped that Mo Peng could keep Qin Tian, ​​but Mo Peng shook his head at them, indicating that he was not sure. The hidden assassins also felt the tension in the surrounding atmosphere.

Qin Tian left calmly. There was no need to say anything else. Since they could not reach an agreement, they could only resolve the issue through force.

When he reached the gate, Qin Tian's voice came back: "Mo Peng, it seems that you hope that Lin Country will fall into chaos, so don't blame me for being rude."

Although the distance was very far, Qin Tian's voice was extremely clear, causing Mo Peng to tremble all over.

Chen Hao said to Qin Tian: "It seems that we have come here for nothing."

Qin Tian replied: "How can you say it was all in vain? Although I know the result now, this is also a process that must be experienced."

Then they returned to the cave and continued their lives.

Soon, Xie Jin called and asked about the outcome. After learning about the situation, she said, "I had expected this outcome a long time ago, but you are right. We in the Jiuzhou Empire must be prepared now."

Xie Jin also mentioned that there were already planes delivering food. The pilots were of high quality and were fully prepared because they might be bombed by Lin Guo's bombers.

Despite such concerns, nothing happened when the plane came to drop the food. The plane did not stay for long and left quickly.

On the other hand, Tang Ying was about to be discharged from the hospital, so she called Qin Tian. Qin Tian was relieved to know that Shen Long would escort her, so he asked Tang Ying to go back to school first, and told her to keep a good watch on Zhu Mingyue.

"Okay, Qin Tian, ​​don't worry." Tang Ying responded.

It was late at night when Shen Long escorted Tang Ying back to school. The school was closed, so Tang Ying had to find a hotel outside. However, the hotel was almost full, with only one room left.

"No, we are not boyfriend and girlfriend, how can we live in the same room?" Tang Ying refused and suggested looking for other places.

The receptionist said that this hotel was far from other places and other places might not have vacancies. She suggested that they make do with this hotel.

"How can we compromise on this?" Tang Ying insisted.

The two went to look for other hotels, but found that most of the hotels around were also fully booked. Tang Ying was reluctant to go to those remote small hotels, fearing that they might be secretly photographed.

With no other options, they returned to the original hotel and had to book a room. Shen Long said he could sleep on the floor and promised not to infringe on Tang Ying. But Tang Ying still felt a little awkward.

Although it was past midnight, she still sent a message to Qin Tian to explain the situation. She thought Qin Tian would not reply, but she didn't expect that Qin Tian was still awake.

Qin Tian was also very worried when he heard the news. He was afraid that Shen Long would do something bad to Tang Ying, so he taught her some self-defense skills. But Tang Ying was still a little scared.

Shen Long, who was sleeping on the floor, saw that Tang Ying couldn't sleep, so he smiled and said, "Miss Tang, it seems you don't believe me. How about this, you close the door, I'll sleep in the corridor, and I'll guard the door."

After saying this, he really came to the door. The next morning, Tang Ying opened the door and saw Shen Long sleeping outside. She felt a little distressed. And Shen Long woke up immediately.

"How is it? Miss Tang, can you go back to school? I can't continue to protect you, and I should go back." Shen Long said.

"I'm really sorry about last night." Tang Ying said apologetically.

"Oh, it's nothing. Girls should protect themselves outside, it's their duty." Shen Long answered tolerantly.

The two eventually parted ways. Tang Ying began to be interested in Shen Long and felt that he was a boy she could trust for life. She also compared Shen Long with Qin Tian. Although she knew that Qin Tian was very good, she felt that Qin Tian might not like her, and it seemed more likely that she and Shen Long would develop a relationship.

She went back to school immediately, hoping that her previous guess was wrong.

She didn't want to believe that Zhu Mingyue really had a problem, after all, she was her best friend. She admitted that she was a little naive and didn't understand human nature thoroughly enough. In the past, she had been kind to others without reservation, but others might not have really accepted her.

When she first returned to school, she was in a terrible mood. On the other hand, several days had passed since the incident, but Qin Tian was unusually calm. Until one day, the hospital called and said that the Wu brothers had woken up.

Wu Yingjun also called Qin Tian and said that he had communicated with his brother in the hospital. His brother swore that he did not have any antiques and that he did so because of the influence of his wife and brother-in-law. He even said that if his brother had difficulties, he could lend him money, but he must not do such a ridiculous thing. Wu Yan had no choice but to admit her mistake with shame.

Wu Yingjun was very worried about the current situation. Qin Tian comforted him and said, "I will tell you the details after you are discharged from the hospital." He asked him to come directly to the boat and then take him to the cave from the boat.

After agreeing on a time, Chen Hao waited for Wu Yingjun on the boat. An hour later, Wu Yingjun finally arrived. He looked unshaven and haggard after not seeing him for a few days. Upon learning that the negotiations had already been held, Wu Yingjun felt very guilty because he was not able to participate.

Qin Tian advised him not to blame himself, because the result would be the same if he went. But Wu Yingjun was indignant and thought that the Lin people were too bullying, so he wanted to go and compete with them. Chen Hao quickly stopped him and said that he was too impulsive. Qin Tian stared at Wu Yingjun angrily and said, "Go ahead. After you die, I will collect your body and apply for a pension from the state after I bring it back."

Wu Yingjun knew that Qin Tian was mocking him, and he also realized that he was impulsive. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't be impulsive, but I am full of passion." Qin Tian said that passion is worth promoting, but you must not act rashly like this.

It seemed that the war would start sooner or later, but after a few days, no news had been heard, and they didn't know what the Lin Kingdom was discussing. However, they had to be more vigilant, as their lives these days were like a war without the smoke of gunpowder, even more tense than when they were on the ship.

Wu Yingjun nodded in agreement. Then, Xie Jin called and asked Qin Tian to keep in touch with her recently. She even hoped to share the joys and sorrows with Qin Tian, ​​but the organization disagreed.

"Okay, don't worry about it. You are of noble status, how could the organization let you come? Unlike us poor people." After hanging up the phone, Xie Jin received another call from the organization, asking her to leave the border and return to work immediately.

"Why do you want me to go back to work? I feel pretty good here." (End of this chapter)
