Wu Shattered Star River

Half a month passed quickly.

Jiang Han set off with the Celestial Wings Race Heavenly Emperor from last time, bringing along Lao Deng and the others, with Ye Wanqiu and Mei Ya also joining.

Of course, Jiang Han wouldn't let them go out; he wasn't even planning to go out himself. It was just a negotiation, and he could conduct it just as well inside the Hao Tian Stone.

The Celestial Wings Race King summoned Jiang Han once, outlining the Celestial Wings Race's conditions and bottom line.

A ceasefire was possible, but the Qilin Race had to return all the territories of the Celestial Wings Race and their allies that they had occupied. This was the bottom line; otherwise, the Celestial Wings Race would not agree to a ceasefire.

Additionally, they wanted as many benefits as possible, as long as it didn't cross the bottom line.

Jiang Han felt this was reasonable. After all, the Qilin Race had invaded the Celestial Wings Race's territory; the Qilin Race were the aggressors, and it wouldn't make sense not to return it.

Leaving the nearby interface, Jiang Han rode the Hao Tian Stone towards that dead star. The Celestial Wings Race's Heavenly Emperor was inside the Hao Tian Stone, which was safer.

On the way, Jiang Han was very cautious, constantly probing. If anything seemed amiss, he wouldn't negotiate and would leave immediately.

After flying for most of the day, he arrived outside the dead star. Jiang Han didn't rush in; instead, he circled the dead star.

He also checked the nearby void meteoroids to make sure there were no ambushes before flying towards the dead star.

This dead star wasn't large. After circling it, he could basically sense the situation inside clearly.

There were only three Qilin Race members on the dead star: Qile, and two Qilin Race royals, who were probably followers accompanying him for the negotiation.

Jiang Han turned his gaze to the Celestial Wings Race's Heavenly Emperor, who had been sensing the outside situation. He nodded to Jiang Han and said, "Is there no problem? Should I go out and chat first?"

"You can!"

Jiang Han wasn't planning to go out. He could chat just as well inside the Hao Tian Stone. He released the Celestial Wings Race Heavenly Emperor, Mei Lu. Mei Lu flew out, slowly flying towards the dead star.

Along the way, Mei Lu was nervously vigilant, constantly sensing the surroundings.

Jiang Han rode the Hao Tian Stone, slowly following behind at a distance. Ye Wanqiu and the others were also probing.

Everything was normal!

Mei Lu stopped dozens of miles away from Qile. He looked at Qile from afar and said, "Qile, can you represent your Qilin Race?"

Qile looked at Mei Lu, his eyes filled with hatred. He coldly snorted and said, "You can represent the Celestial Wings Race, so why can't I represent the Qilin Race?"

"Oh?"

Mei Lu laughed and said, "Such a tough tone? Are you here to negotiate, or to cause trouble? If you want to cause trouble, there's no need to talk. Judging by your appearance, you seem unconvinced?"

"Hmph!"

Qile sneered and said, "It's as if you defeated us. Without that Human Race, wouldn't your Qilin Race be cowering in the Western Wings World, afraid to move?"

"Enough nonsense!"

Mei Lu coldly shouted, "Are you here to negotiate or not? If you're not here to negotiate, then there's no point in talking. We're leaving!"

"Buzz ~"

Qile waved his hand, and the two King-level experts behind him took out several tables and set them up on the open ground.

They set out two rows of tables, hundreds of feet apart. Qile and the others sat on one side. He said, "Come down and sit down to talk. Isn't it tiring like this?"

Qile then looked at the Hao Tian Stone above the void and said, "Human Race, come down and talk."

Jiang Han naturally wouldn't be so rash. He transmitted his voice and said, "You and Mei Lu can talk. As long as you reach an agreement, I have no objections here."

"Alright!"

Qile didn't force it. Instead, he took out some documents. He looked at Mei Lu and said, "Why aren't you coming down to sit? What? Are you afraid I'll assassinate you? I came alone; it would be easy for you to kill me. I'm not afraid, so why are you?"

"Heh heh!"

Mei Lu sneered twice. Qile's battle power was similar to his, so he naturally wasn't afraid.

With a flash, he arrived at the other side and sat down. Qile looked at a King-level expert, who picked up a document and walked towards Mei Lu.

Mei Lu sensed that this was indeed a King-level expert, so he didn't pay too much attention. After the King-level expert delivered the document, he immediately retreated.

Mei Lu glanced at the document and then smiled mockingly, saying, "What wishful thinking from you Qilin Race? You want a ceasefire, but you're only offering some resources and letting go of a dozen interfaces? If you're not sincere, then there's no need to talk. We'll continue fighting."

Qile said with a dark face, "You've already killed two of our elders and slaughtered so many of our people. What else do you want?"

Mei Lu didn't take out a document. He said directly, "If you want a ceasefire, four conditions. First, return all the territories you've invaded. Second, cede a thousand interfaces to us. Third, compensate us with some resources. Fourth, immediately disband the alliance. In the future, you and the Wrath Race and other races must not form an alliance again!"

Mei Lu's conditions weren't too excessive. Among the conditions that the Qilin Race King had discussed with Jiang Han before, only the fourth one hadn't been mentioned.

After hearing this, Jiang Han didn't say anything. The fourth condition wasn't too excessive either.

"Bang!"

Qile slammed the table and stood up, saying, "Mei Lu, don't go too far. At worst, we'll fight to the death!"

"If you don't want to talk, then don't talk!"

Mei Lu was very tough. These conditions they had offered weren't excessive; they were quite sincere. If the Qilin Race still felt this was excessive, then there was indeed nothing to talk about.

Qile took a long breath. He turned his gaze to Jiang Han and said, "Human Race, the Celestial Wings Race is so domineering. Have we been wrong to unite and resist their hegemony, which has been oppressing all the races of the Boundless Realm for so many years?"

"Over the years, the Celestial Wings Race has annexed countless of our interfaces. The Celestial Wings Race only had three thousand interfaces before, but now they have nearly ten thousand, and they are all the best interfaces in terms of resources. Are we wrong to join forces to reclaim our stolen interfaces? Do you have to help the wicked?"

"Bullshit!"

Mei Lu cursed angrily, "How many interfaces of our race did you invade in this joint attack?"

Qile retorted, "Were these interfaces originally yours, Celestial Wings Race? Aren't you ashamed? Human Race, come down and judge!"

Jiang Han's head was spinning. The two Heavenly Emperor-level experts were arguing and making noise like shrewish women. He didn't want to listen to them arguing here.

Both races were invading each other's interfaces and were not good people.

"Something's not right!"

Ye Wanqiu next to Jiang Han narrowed her eyes slightly. She said, "Jiang Han, this Qilin Race has been trying to get you to go down. I feel something's not right. Could it be that the Qilin Race has an ambush below?"

"An ambush?"

Jiang Han's eyes suddenly turned cold. He thought about it carefully and also felt that something was not right.

This Qilin Race didn't seem like he had come to negotiate. His tone was very tough, not at all like he had been defeated.

He didn't care about the conditions of the negotiation at all. Instead, he kept dragging the topic onto him, constantly trying to get him to go down?

What difference did it make if he was here or down there? Couldn't they still talk?

The only meaning of asking him to go down was that there was an ambush below!

Thinking of this, Jiang Han directly controlled the Hao Tian Stone to move into the void. At the same time, he transmitted his voice to Mei Lu and said, "Mei Lu, be careful, don't be ambushed. You come up to the void first and let him talk in the void."

"Bang!"

Just as Jiang Han was flying into the void, a cave below exploded, and then four powerful experts soared into the sky and flew rapidly towards the Hao Tian Stone.
