Why don't they attack?
"Sincerity, what I want is sincerity."
ng Yu looked at the intelligence, many people expressed their willingness to surrender, and then nodded, "Tell your brothers and sisters that Uncle Twelve has limited patience, don't let him wait too long, if it weren't for always stopping him, he would have taken down Eternal Night Palace in one go."
ng Yu told everyone that he was kind-hearted, had traveled here including Foundation Establishnt and thanked Uncle Twelve for his help, but he didn't want too many people to die in this battle, like those at the Golden Core cultivation level.
ng Yu praised the defense of the Eternal Night Palace and ntioned that, relying on the Mountain Protection Array, the Reverend Muzhong could at least take away a dozen of ng Yu's side's Golden Cores, which wouldn't be good.
That was the truth.
"The terms I'm offering you now are very good, you can keep so of your property, asking for more won't work, the uncle leading the team is rather stern and ruthless, you don't understand, if it weren't for advising him, he would have already taken down Eternal Night Palace."
Listening to ng Yu privately slandering his uncle, True Master Lan Qiong felt imnsely envious.
She too ca from a large family, step by step she beca a Golden Core, originally thinking her life began at the pinnacle, but now she could only say, ng Yu was truly born with a golden key.
A father and uncle with Divinity Transformation, so many Golden Core Masters who cared for and adored him... The Golden Cores she t in Sleepless City respected ng Yu greatly, and the won, when talking about ng Yu, had the feeling of a big sister looking at a little brother.
She carefully explained to ng Yu the various situations of Eternal Night Palace and the terms proposed by those people, but ng Yu didn't care much, saying to pass this information to Xie Mingxian, let him and those people interpret it, "I'm just a minor Foundation Establishnt, I don't need to worry about these things."
ng Yu began to enjoy the delicacies.
Ascension List is a virtual world, perfect for enjoying gourt food, and this direct disciple of Lady ng, the fad Golden Core Master known as the Ice and Snow Orchid, in addition to serving ng Yu tea and water, ca close to ng Yu, affectionate but also distant, rubbing against him.
Her face was slightly red, ten days ago, she never imagined, a Golden Core Master of her stature would serve a Foundation Establishnt in such a lowly manner, but she knew clearer, this was her only chance.
In reality, she wouldn't even have the chance to get close to ng Yu!
Xie Mingxian was taken to Eternal Night Palace by Mirror Twelve, regularly connecting with ng Yu through the Ascension List, while she was imprisoned in Sleepless City.
Despite ng Yu's friendly attitude, saying as long as you behave, I won't lack resources for your real-world cultivation, but in reality, she couldn't even et ng Yu!
The son of Divinity Transformation, although congenial, behind that congeniality were countless people wanting to get close to him!
She once managed a Minor World, during the critical monts of dynastic rise and fall, Emperor's succession, many famous ministers and generals, many talented enchanters, just because they chose the wrong side or weren't valued, were treated like trash, so spent decades in jail until they died of old age!
Between life and death, there is great terror.
Over the years, Eternal Night Palace defeated many Sects, dealt with many Loose Cultivators, she knew very well how prisoners were treated, many enemies would rather self-destruct than surrender, because the endings were very tragic!
And she, although still a Golden Core Master, was imprisoned sowhere, also under several prohibitions, life and death controlled by others, those Golden Cores could just raise their hands to take her life!
Although she repeatedly expressed her desire to et ng Yu in reality, including being willing to have all her Cultivation sealed to see ng Yu, none succeeded!
They didn't trust her.
Then, if you can't even see them, don't have a closer relationship, how can you ensure they will truly release you?
The first day, she didn't care, the second day, she began to fear... the third day, the fourth day, and thereafter, terror surrounded her every day, making her determined.
She didn't want to die! She would survive at all costs!
She needed a true guarantee she could trust, at least she wanted to feel, this person wouldn't forget her.
Although quite shy, her chest pressed against ng Yu's arm, such that the softest part accidentally brushed against ng Yu once, then again, but she still clung to ng Yu's arm.
"Don't do this, you should eat too."
The man was a bit embarrassed and quickly withdrew his hand.
Ah, this is a good man, she recalled the various rumors about ng Yu, like at first, he was courted by Bai Qianqian, that faceless and buttless girl, just because Bai Qianqian was kind to him and could cry.
She suddenly felt a stirring in her heart and thought of many things.
...
After leaving ng Yu's room, Lan Qiong reverted to her icy deanor.
Then, she arrived at another courtyard, and soon after, various guests began to arrive.
It was sowhat amusing that among the eight Golden Cores that entered the Ascension List, all eight had connections with Lan Qiong, including Xie Mingxian; among them were even Lady ng's granddaughter and the son of Venerable Mu!
The day Venerable Mu failed to escape promptly and was trapped in the Eternal Night Palace, several people contacted Lan Qiong, stating, "We want to talk with ng Yu!"
However, at that ti, ng Yu was asleep; upon waking, he was not enthusiastic but still welcod the talks.
ng Yu's terms were simple.
Among the eight individuals, the lives of two people could not be discussed; they were too evil, had committed too many atrocities, and letting them go would easily implicate ng Yu in karma, affecting his future achievent of Divinity Transformation—it was unacceptable.
Such bizarre talk would be scoffed at if it ca from soone else, but when ng Yu said it, everyone believed it to be true.
This person had already seen a farther future and cared about karma!
Of course, if these two individuals were not afraid to die and were willing to use their lives to secure a path for their children, that could be discussed too.
As for the other individuals, if they staged a rebellion, they could take their personal life weapons, so possessions, and so subordinates, all handled in the manner of Yuan Ziyu.
ng Yu was not keen on this and let Lan Qiong and Xie Mingxian negotiate with them first; once everyone accepted the terms, they would have a proper discussion.
Today, these people ca to see ng Yu again.
"Sister Lan."
The speaker was an elegant and noble woman, Lady ng's granddaughter. Although her mother had died at ng Yu's hands, she still contacted Lan Qiong, the earliest traitor.
"Can't the terms be a bit better? You know, without the Eternal Night Palace, there is much danger outside; we need more assurances."
Her phoenix hairpin was luxurious and elaborate, and her expression showed fear.
For countless Loose Cultivators, becoming Golden Core was a lifelong dream as it promised safety; however, those in the Eternal Night Palace knew that once a Golden Core left their power sphere, they were rely flavorful fruit.
Disgrace cos with leaving ho, implying that once you move to certain places, it's easy to perish with your clan.
Even if they stayed where they were, they could easily be devoured.
"These are the terms set by Young Master ng, and they are indeed fair. If anyone else were to take action, do you guess, would those people honor the agreent?"
Lan Qiong looked helplessly at the foolish woman in front of her, who was still too naive. Insiders are never considered valuable people; their worth dissipates upon mission completion. Many forces, including the Eternal Night Palace, had committed acts of betrayal, and turning on people at any given excuse was all too common; in contrast, ng Yu, who even released captured Golden Core prisoners, was extrely rare.
"I want to see Young Master ng; is that possible? Actually, I can persuade Venerable Mu. He doesn't wish to fight to the death, and negotiations are possible as long as he is released, resulting in a perfect outco."
The woman's voice carried hope, her ample chest trembling nonstop; this goddess of the Eternal Night Palace, in this mont, spoke humbly yet her eyes still held a trace of determination.
Perhaps, she had sothing to exchange with ng Yu, perhaps she thought she could persuade ng Yu, or maybe she still believed in the notions of a gentleman's agreent and kindred spirits.
Or even, she was entrusted by Venerable Mu to test the waters.
"Slap!"
Lan Qiong slapped her hard across the face.
"Snap out of it!"
