Chapter 754 A tough nut to crack

Zhou Qing and Ao Xuanwei walked into Taiyuan Palace and agreed on the time of their departure from Yingcang Lake, as well as the time and resource shares for subsequent annual transactions.

The most important thing is to break the barrier between Taiyuan Palace and the water veins of Cang Lake, so that the water veins of Taiyuan Palace, Zhenyangyuan and Luanxi Palace can be reconnected.

Since they have already decided to evacuate, the mermaid and the dragon naturally agree to this matter.

Giving them time to evacuate is not allowing them to use it to destroy Yingcang Lake and leave a mess.

Later, Ao Xuanwei will also send people to supervise the people from Taiyuan Palace to prevent them from doing anything tricky at the last moment, to ensure that she can get a intact area of ​​water.

When the three parts of the water veins were connected together, they were instantly controlled by Ao Xuanwei. Most of the water veins of Yingcang Lake were blessed to her, which had a great impact on her.

This state of having the entire world and waters under control and being one with herself brought Ao Xuanwei considerable benefits.

After the preliminary discussion, the two of them left Taiyuan Palace directly.

"It saves a lot of effort here and achieves the goal directly."

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "Congratulations, you have obtained three-fifths of Yingcang Lake."

"It's all because of you."

Ao Xuanwei had a big smile on her face, "Without you and Xie Jian fighting alone, it would be easy to win and shock Yingcang Lake."

“I wouldn’t be so successful now.”

Taiyuan Palace was very aware of the current situation. The mermaid and the dragon knew that they could not defeat Zhou Qing even if they joined forces, so they simply did not struggle any more.

There is no point in struggling, and it may even put your life in danger.

No matter how much he struggled, the final result would be the same. He could not stop Zhou Qing and Ao Xuanwei. So why did he have to get beaten?

Mermaids and dragons, it's not like they have any masochistic tendencies.

The Taiyuan Sect asked the aquatic creatures to come to Yingcang Lake for two main purposes. One was to collect resources, and the other was to expand the territory and cultivate subordinate aquatic creatures.

Now that Ao Xuanwei is willing to establish a trading relationship with Taiyuan Sect, the first goal can still be achieved even if they withdraw from Yingcang Lake, just in a different way.

And expanding the territory...

After all, the Taiyuan Sect is the human race's orthodoxy, and the aquatic forces are merely its vassals. The land is the foundation of the Taiyuan Sect.

As long as goal one does not fail, losing part of the territory of Yingcang Lake is not unacceptable to the Taiyuan Sect.

The Taiyuan Sect is not in Lingxiu County. This is neither his mountain gate nor his foundation.

Then from the very beginning, it would be impossible to hold on to the status quo.

Ao Xuanwei wanted to retake the waters, not the Taiyuan Sect...

After seeing Zhou Qing's strength, Taiyuan Palace chose to withdraw, which was the rational thing to do.

If you don't quit, you'll be beaten.

"Don't be polite to me."

Zhou Qing smiled and asked:

"There are only Baixing Palace and Linglan Mansion left. We still have time today. Where should we go?"

Zhou Qing wanted to deal with the Yingcang Lake matter as soon as possible. Everything had been going smoothly so far, so he should press on and quickly resolve the remaining two issues.

"I can't guess the attitudes of these two water tribes. I don't know what choice they will make."

Ao Xuanwei pondered, "In Linglan Mansion, there is a poisonous dragon in the Earth Realm, and he is the only one in the Earth Realm."

"Among all the people in Yingcang Lake, Baixing Palace has the most Earth Realm masters, with three in total."

"Let's go to Linglan Mansion first."

The fact that Yingcang Lake can support so many masters shows how excellent the environment of this water area is. There was a reason why the Dragon King chose to occupy this place back then.

If Ao Xuanwei can successfully occupy Yingcang Lake, it will be enough to support her practice for a long time in the future, and it will bring many benefits.

Not to mention, Yingcang Lake still has secrets. This is the information that Long Jun discovered back then. The secret has been hidden and has not been revealed until today.

Ao Xuanwei came to Yingcang Lake for this reason, to get hold of the secret that the Dragon King discovered back then.

"it is good."

The two went straight to Linglan Mansion, but when they arrived at Linglan Mansion, they did not see anyone. Everything here was normal, and the poisonous dragon did not come out to wait in advance.

Zhou Qing and Ao Xuanwei looked at each other and had some guesses in their minds.

"Is Palace Master Jiao Ying here?"

Ao Xuanwei shouted, her voice spreading throughout Linglan Mansion, but still no one responded.

Jiao Ying, this is the name of the poisonous dragon.

Those who were patrolling in Linglan Mansion were looking at her, but no one could say anything.

After waiting quietly for a while, Ao Xuanwei said softly:
"Let's go to the Hundred Stars Palace."

Zhou Qing glanced at Linglan Mansion, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and then he turned and left with Ao Xuanwei.

When the two of them arrived, the Lord of Linglan Mansion did not show up, and not even a single venerable came out to receive them.

Linglan Mansion’s intention is already very clear, there is no need to waste time here.

Inside Linglan Mansion.

Jiao Ying withdrew his gaze from outside the mansion with a gloomy look.

"A little yellow-haired girl, relying on her family background and a mistress, wants to seize my Jiao Ying's territory. What a fantasy."

Next to Jiao Ying, there were two people. Although they had transformed into human form, their aquatic characteristics were also very obvious. One was a big man, and the other was an old man with a shriveled body.

The big man had a few whiskers on his face. He placed one hand on the table and tapped it gently, saying:

"Jiao Ying, Linglanjiang Dragon Palace shouldn't ask you and Ao Xuanwei to fight to the death, right?"

"There's not even a single expert there to support us. This is enough to show the attitude of Linglanjiang Dragon Palace. You even asked the two of us to come and help you. Now you don't even want to see Zhou Qing and the others. What are you planning?"

The old man was skinny and shriveled, with yellow scales on his hands, and his voice was very hoarse.

"Jiao Ying, you asked us to help you. This is against Yunjiang Dragon Palace. We are friends, so we are here, but you also have to give us a reasonable explanation."

"Why do you plan to fight to the death with Ao Xuanwei?"

"If you don't see them today, they will probably come and fight you soon. Don't say it's just a dispute of pride and you can't swallow this breath. We know you, you are not that kind of person."

Jiao Ying nodded and said, "You are right. Linglanjiang did ask me to act according to circumstances. If things are not going well, I should withdraw from Yingcang Lake and not get entangled with Ao Xuanwei."

The old man nodded, "Sure enough, you made this decision on your own, why?"

"I discovered a secret in Yingcang Lake."

Jiao Ying's eyes lit up and he glanced at the two of them.

"I suspect there is a dragon vein under Yingcang Lake!"

"Dragon Vein?!"

The big man exclaimed, then immediately lowered his voice.

"really?"

"I'm not sure. I just found some clues, but I haven't found any traces of the dragon vein yet."

Jiao Ying said seriously: "But this is a dragon vein. Even if it's just a clue, it's worth our action."

"Once it is confirmed to be true, we will gain a huge reward!"

"That's why I don't want to withdraw from Yingcang Lake, and I'm preparing to fight with that yellow-haired girl Ao Xuanwei. I don't dare to think about killing Ao Xuanwei, but as long as we can delay her for a while and give us time to find the dragon vein, that will be enough."

"you're right."

Desire rose in the skinny old man's eyes. "For the sake of the dragon vein, we really can't withdraw from Yingcang Lake so easily. How can we rest without a thorough search?"

Jiao Ying added: "If we can find the dragon vein, no matter what stage it grows to, we will divide it immediately, each of us will get a share, and then fly away from Huzhou."

"So, are you two Taoist friends willing to lend me a helping hand?"

The big man said without hesitation: "I will help you with all my strength!"

The skinny old man hesitated for a moment and said:

"Do you think Yunjiang Dragon Lord discovered this dragon vein? Did Ao Xuanwei know about it too?"

"No matter whether Yunjiang Dragon Lord discovered it back then or not, are you willing to give up the dragon vein and hand it over to us now?"

As soon as this question was asked, people fell silent.

How could I be willing to do that? Such a great opportunity is right before my eyes, who would want to miss it?

Unless Yunjiang Dragon King comes immediately and kills them directly if they refuse to leave, there is only a possibility of giving up.

"If I can discover it, then Yunjiang Dragon King back then would also be able to discover it naturally."

Jiao Ying's eyes turned gloomy. "That's why I don't want to communicate with Ao Xuanwei. There's no need. Neither we nor they can give in."

"If we contact them, Ao Xuanwei and Zhou Qing might see something. They definitely can't figure out our intentions now, so they might be afraid to act rashly."

"With our strength, we can hold Zhou Qing and Ao Xuanwei back for a long time. Even if Zhou Qing is a little weird, he can't defeat the three of us by himself."

Jiao Ying is in the Netherworld realm, while the big man and the old man he invited are both in the Ksitigarbha realm, which is indeed a very powerful force.

Jiao Ying and the other two naturally saw the battle between Zhou Qing and Xie Yu Xia Guang. It was amazing, but they also had confidence in their own strength.

Three against one, and their realm is far higher, how could they possibly lose?

"The most urgent task is to find the dragon vein as soon as possible."

As the big man spoke, he suddenly looked at Jiao Ying and asked:

"You didn't tell Linglanjiang Dragon Palace about this news, did you?" "Of course not."

Jiao Ying sneered, "If this matter is reported to Linglan River, if there really is a dragon vein, there will definitely be a big commotion, and in the end there will be no share of the dragon vein for me. It will definitely be divided up by those real dragons."

"You all know that the bloodline hierarchy in the Linglan River Dragon Palace is strict, and water creatures below the level of a true dragon have no status at all. I have been in Yingcang Lake for so many years and have provided so many resources to the Linglan River, but how did they treat me?"

"Notify Ling Lanjiang and ask them to come forward. How can we achieve as much as the three of us working together!"

The big man immediately agreed: "Well, the three of us will work together to accomplish great things!"

The skinny old man glanced at Jiao Ying with an eager look, but some contempt in his heart.

When you were being hunted by a water tribe, would you have survived without the protection of the Linglan River Dragon Palace?
Not to mention his later promotion to the Earth Realm, where he held great power.

Now, after you have become successful, just because the resources and status you enjoy are not as good as those of the Earth Real Dragons, you start to blame Linglanjiang, thinking that Linglanjiang has treated you harshly.

Among the demon race, bloodline is respected, and stronger bloodlines enjoy more attention, which is almost a universal phenomenon.

Of course, most of the flood dragons can never compare to the real dragons. If you let the peerless geniuses and ordinary geniuses enjoy the same treatment, how could the former be willing?

This Jiao Ying is really an ungrateful person.

But it’s better that he is an ungrateful person. If he weren’t an ungrateful person, how would I have the chance to come into contact with the dragon vein.

The skinny old man said with approval:

"Jiao Ying, you are right. Ling Lanjiang doesn't consider you as his own and doesn't value you at all. Now that we have obtained the dragon vein, we will definitely make Ling Lanjiang regret it in the future!"

He showed great indignation and shared the same hatred with Jiao Ying.

"Hahaha."

Jiao Ying smiled proudly, "If we can really find the dragon vein, then Linglan River might have a new owner in the future!"

"Ha, I also support Brother Jiao to be the Lord of Linglan River!"

……

"The attitude of the poisonous dragon in Linglan Mansion is already very clear."

Ao Xuanwei said: "I don't think the people here will be as easy to talk to as Maouin and the others. If we want to retake that area of ​​water, we may need a real battle."

"Let's take care of the affairs of Maoyuan and Taiyuan Palace today."

Zhou Qing said: "Let's take a look at what Baixing Palace means first, and then I will come to Linglan Mansion again."

"No matter what he relies on, if that poisonous dragon doesn't want to leave, then I will send him off."

"Yes." Ao Xuanwei nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said:
“But I think Linglan Mansion’s attitude is a little suspicious. Even if they don’t want to leave easily, there is no need for them to directly refuse to communicate with us.”

"Their refusal to communicate is undoubtedly exacerbating the conflict and pushing both sides into opposition."

"Do you need to collect some information later?"

Zhou Qing shook his head, "No need to bother."

"No matter what the reason is, there will be a war in the end. This is definitely unavoidable."

He looked back at Linglan Palace and said, "Just take the last step. There's no need to waste time."

No matter what you think, since you don’t cooperate, I will make you cooperate.

Looking forward and backward?

nonexistent.

Now that I am here, I must pacify Yingcang Lake as quickly as possible and at the lowest cost.

Because they did not stay in Linglan Mansion for long, Zhou Qing and the others still had time to visit Baixing Palace.

When they arrived at the Hundred Stars Palace, they saw three impressive aquatic creatures waiting for them. When they saw them coming, they came forward to greet them.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, Your Highness, we have been waiting for a long time. Please come into the hall and have a chat."

Here in Baixing Palace, the attitude is completely different.

Don't hit someone who smiles at you. Ao Xuanwei also said kindly:
"Thank you for your courtesy, three hall masters. Please forgive me for disturbing you."

I followed the three masters of Baixing Palace into the reception hall.

"We all know why your Highness is here."

Among the three masters of the Hundred Stars Hall, a young man said:
"To be honest, we have already received news that His Highness is going to open a palace in Yingcang Lake, and Qianxing Lake has also discussed it."

"Oh?"

Ao Xuanwei asked, "Then I wonder what Qianxing Lake thinks?"

"Are you going to fight me to the death in Yingcang Lake, or are we going to resolve this peacefully?"

The young man's name was Dongshan. He smiled and said:

"We are all water creatures, and we don't have any irreconcilable hatred. Naturally, we won't go to the point of killing each other. That would be too damaging to the harmony."

"The blood of our water tribe does not need to be shed in this place."

"I agree with this idea." Ao Xuanwei nodded.

"But if that's the case, then Baixing Palace is willing to withdraw from Yingcang Lake?"

"It's not impossible to withdraw from Yingcang Lake. Has Your Highness dealt with the Zhenyang Court and Taiyuan Palace?"

"Yes, I have already negotiated with them. Maouin will be affiliated with me, and some of the water tribes of Taiyuan Palace will return to Taiyuan Sect."

There is nothing to hide about this matter. Everyone knows the former, and speaking out the latter will also increase Ao Xuanwei's power.

There is no need to say more about the current situation.

"The concession of Dean Xie and his men was obtained in exchange for my agreement to their conditions."

Ao Xuanwei understood some things and said:

"Since the Hundred Stars Palace is willing to sit down and talk, I guess there are some conditions, right?"

"Just say it."

This is certain. If they want to talk, then they must be asking for something. If they have nothing else to ask for and do not want to start a dispute, then why doesn't the Baixing Palace just withdraw?

"Your Highness has a keen eye."

Dongshan said: "Senior Longjun is a hero of the water tribe, and everyone in Qianxing Lake respects him."

"But Yingcang Lake is also a very important part of Qianxing Lake, so we still want to fight for it."

"It just so happens that recently a prince in Qianxing Lake also just completed the True Dragon Ceremony. He also wants to open a residence in Yingcang Lake, which has caused a conflict with the prince."

Ao Xuanwei remained calm and listened quietly.

"After discussing with Qianxing Lake, they felt that since both Your Highnesses wanted to open a residence in Yingcang Lake, it would be better for the two of you to decide the final result."

"Our condition is not to implicate more people. We only want the two princes to compete. The winner can continue to stay in Yingcang Lake, and the loser can withdraw."

"This way, we won't hurt the relationship, and we won't involve more aquatic creatures, causing large-scale bloodshed and sacrifice."

"After all, if a large-scale conflict really breaks out between Baixing Palace and Luanxi Palace, it would be too tragic. I'm afraid the water of Yingcang Lake would be dyed red."

"That's a good plan."

Ao Xuanwei smiled and said directly:
"I reject."

Ao Xuanwei stared at Dongshan with a serious expression.

"Yingcang Lake was once occupied by my father and should have belonged to Yunjiang Dragon Palace. It is reasonable for me to take it over now."

"Qianxing Lake has no right to allow people to open a government here!"

"I will never agree to this condition."

The conditions at Qianxing Lake are simply a joke.

What is your level and what is my status? The two sides are totally unequal. I am higher than you. This is my territory. I agree to your conditions. Am I crazy?
Why is the face so big?

The conditions at Qianxing Lake are completely different from those at Maoyuan and Taiyuan Palace, and are of a completely different nature.

Regardless of the fact that Zhenyangyuan has already surrendered, he only talked about the conditions of Taiyuan Palace. Although Ao Xuanwei will need to provide resources to Taiyuan Sect in the future, it is an equal transaction for both parties.

The resources that Taiyuan Sect needs are just ordinary treasures on Ao Xuanwei's side and have no special uses. In this kind of exchange, no one will suffer a loss. Instead, it is a win-win situation and is good for everyone.

But the conditions of the Hundred Stars Palace are too unrealistic.

I am ahead of you in every aspect. Even if you are unwilling to quit, I will be able to defeat you as long as you pay a certain price.

The only reason I am willing to talk now is because I don’t want any bloodshed or sacrifice among the aquatic people under my command. I want to save some effort and take over Yingcang Lake peacefully.

But this doesn't mean you have the right to have someone compete with me for this place!

Seeing Ao Xuanwei's firm attitude, the three hall masters looked at each other, and Dongshan asked again:

"Is there no room for negotiation?"

"If the so-called prince of Qianxing Lake also wants to open a residence in Yingcang Lake, then let him come and give it a try."

Ao Xuanwei returned to normal and said:

"When the time comes, the outcome will be determined by blood."

At this time, Zhou Qing spoke up.

"Perhaps you three made a mistake."

"From the beginning to the end, we were not begging you to discuss, but we were willing to give you a chance."

Give you a chance to leave alive.
