Pale fingertips tapped the iron armrest, the posture of leaning sideways with a hand under the chin seed lazy, yet the eyes were like drawn blades, casting a cold arc in the dim hall.
"The guests have arrived, let’s call this ga off, a draw will suffice."
The young man waved his hand, halting his chess moves.
"The chess ga favors Su Sect Master, it is Su Sect Master who won. I’m still a bit lacking in the ga, and I hope to learn more from Su Sect Master in the future."
Lu Jingshi chuckled awkwardly, his tone full of flattery.
The young man did not answer, slowly sitting upright, turning to face the twelve Righteous Sect Masters entering the hall.
Just eting his gaze, several Righteous Sect Masters felt their eyelids twitch, swallowed subconsciously, their legs slightly weak.
For this person stands at the pinnacle of the Qingzhou Demon Path, whose fierce reputation echoes through the Da Li Dynasty, an unparalleled fiend known as the Blood Demon Ancestor, Su Jie.
His renowned na casts a shadow akin to a tree; how could these righteous sects not be filled with dread before such a peerless demon like Su Jie?
"Welco, leaders of various sects and factions, to Ghost Ridge Palace."
Su Jie’s lips curled slightly, speaking blandly: "This ti, I’ve invited everyone here to discuss the future developnt of Qingzhou together. Being the pillar of Qingzhou, closing doors to talk heart-to-heart about future major plans is my responsibility as the Sect Master of Ghost Ridge Palace."
Without any aggression, Su Jie’s words seed approachable, making many present Righteous Sect Masters relax slightly.
The scene remained very quiet, the Righteous Sect Masters remained silent.
Seeing this, Su Jie tapped the armrest with his fingers and said: "Of course, I know there are small misunderstandings about out there, saying I’m bloodthirsty and such, but these are the prejudices of the people, the nonsense of those ignorant masses. Personally, I always adhere to order and cooperation for mutual benefit, so no need to be overly concerned. This cooperative discussion is indeed genuine, heaven and earth can witness."
Upon hearing Su Jie speak like this, the atmosphere lightened considerably again.
Zhuo Zhong, Sect Master of Dragon Roar Palace, couldn’t hold back and stepped forward, saying: "I am Zhuo Zhong of Dragon Roar Palace, we have t Su Sect Master.
Since Su Sect Master speaks of cooperation for mutual benefit, I too will speak frankly, I hope Su Sect Master could grant our Dragon Roar Palace the favor of retrieving the corpses of our sect disciples and elders from the Ten Thousand Insect Pit, allowing them to rest in peace. If fulfilled, Dragon Roar Palace will be eternally grateful and will definitely cooperate fully with Su Sect Master."
Many on-site widened their eyes, Zhuo Zhong really dared to ask! Many had shaky legs around Su Jie, yet Zhuo Zhong dared to question him, this courage, they certainly admire.
Lu Jingshi, seated beside Su Jie, gazed at Zhuo Zhong, his eyes slightly empathetic.
This guy, really took Su Jie’s pleasantries seriously, couldn’t tell the good from the bad talk; if Su Jie were so anable, how could he have made such a na in Qingzhou?
"Do you have enough Spirit Stones in Dragon Roar Palace to ransom the spoil of war? We sell cultivator corpses quite expensively."
Su Jie’s expression showed no joy or anger, casually saying.
Spoil of war!
Upon hearing these three words, Zhuo Zhong’s temples bulged, choked, saying: "Su Sect Master, these were our sect’s comrades and disciples, how can they be treated as spoils.
Ghost Ridge Palace, wishing to beco the Qingzhou Alliance Leader, must first gain people’s trust, show Ghost Ridge Palace’s attitude to the world.
Otherwise, not even sparing the corpses, the world would think Ghost Ridge Palace is a gathering of predators, how could it gain the submission of all under heaven, this goes completely against our sect’s moral principles."
"Are you done speaking?"
Su Jie’s gaze deepened, the hall’s bone lamp cast a ghostly glow from the do, illuminating his eyes with a chilling hue beneath the lids, turning the air of the entire hall almost suffocating.
The next mont, not waiting for Zhuo Zhong to respond, Su Jie suddenly clenched his five fingers, the armrest of the chair crumbled under his grip, his gaze like a snake darting, sweeping across the already sensing grave incident, trembling Zhuo Zhong, curling his lips into a mocking arc: "Are you instructing how to conduct affairs?"
As the words fell, Zhuo Zhong’s face changed drastically, his eyes bulging, screaming in agony.
Because a multitude of pale arms appeared on his limbs, twisting his hands and feet into a braid-like ss.
The crisp sound of bones breaking echoed through the hall, flesh and blood vessels burst in the twist, spilling blood and pulp, in just the blink of an eye, Zhuo Zhong, a Daoist Platform Realm’s second level powerhouse, had his limbs turned to mush, forming a human stick collapsed on the ground.
"Wish to educate on conduct, have nd my ways, haha, sounds quite good. I’d like to see, I, Su Jie, today want to beco Qingzhou’s sky, the Qingzhou Alliance Leader, whover harbors dissenting opinions, feel free to speak boldly, I would be open to hearing them."
Speaking, Su Jie’s gaze swept across the venue, sneering: "Finished my speech, who agrees, who opposes."
