Chapter 446: Lobbyist

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Ye Qiubai saw the door open and walked into the room.

During this time, he passed by two young men.

The young man said with an ugly expression, “Let’s fight again next time!”

Ye Qiubai didn’t even look at him. He ignored the two young men and walked into the room, closing the door.

To him, since he had already lost, there was no need to fight anymore, because it was meaningless!

After all, to Ye Qiubai, he could either suppress him at the beginning and then chase after him and defeat him after cultivating diligently.

Or, he couldn’t defeat Ye Qiubai from the beginning to the end!

Since he knew that the other party was unable to surpass him, why would he waste his time and accept the challenge?

It was such disregard that infuriated the two young men!

They could not take it. They were actually looked down upon in the Low Latitude Realm!

The other party’s resources and forces were far inferior to theirs!

Moreover, he had defeated him when he was a major realm lower!

For various reasons, they began to doubt their Dao hearts…

At this moment, inside the house.

A hairless old man was drinking wine at a round table.

Ye Qiubai walked in and cupped his hands. “Greetings, Senior.”

The old man nodded slightly and went straight to the point. “Your Low Latitude Realm sent a child like you here to negotiate?”

Ye Qiubai smiled and didn’t say anything.

Without hearing Ye Qiubai’s answer, the old man put down his wine glass and looked up with a smile. He pointed at Ye Qiubai with his withered finger and said, “Looks like you’re not here to negotiate.”

Obviously, the old man had already guessed Ye Qiubai’s intentions.

Ye Qiubai was not surprised.

Which expert at this level was stupid?

“Senior, I am indeed not here to negotiate.”

“If you’re not here to negotiate, go back to where you came from.”

The old man smiled and took a sip of wine. “Don’t try to use some tricks to persuade me. They’re useless.”

Ye Qiubai didn’t leave. Instead, he said directly, “Senior, are you or the Wuxu City behind you really satisfied with the outcome this time?”

The old man was about to raise his glass and drink when he heard this and suddenly paused.

“Sowing discord? Little boy, 1 have to say, you’re very courageous.”

Ye Qiubai smiled. He wasn’t surprised that the other party had guessed his plan.

On the contrary, he had already said so much, but the other party still couldn’t guess it.

That could only mean that this old man only had strength but no brains.

Ye Qiubai sat at the round table, picked up the wine pot, and poured himself a cup.

The old man did not mind. After taking a sip, he said, “This wine is very strong. If you don’t use spiritual qi to resolve the alcohol, you might fall in one cup.”

Ye Qiubai smiled and took a sip. “Isn’t it too boring to use spiritual qi to resolve drinking?”

The old man nodded. “That’s true.”

“However…” Ye Qiubai’s face was not rosy at all. He smiled and said, “Senior, this wine isn’t very good.”

“Oh?” The old man looked up with interest. “You’ve drunk stronger wine than this?”

“I did.”

“What’s it called?”

“White spirit.”

White spirit?

The old man was stunned.

He was a good drinker by nature. He drank wine every day and tasted countless wines.

He had drunk all the wine in the Middle Latitude Region but this was the first time he had heard of white spirit.

“Stronger than this wine?”

“Dozens of times stronger.”

Ye Qiubai smiled and said, “My master brewed it personally.”

The old man smiled and raised his glass. “Then I must try it when 1 have the chance.”

“I must drink to my heart’s content with your master!”

Ye Qiubai laughed in his heart.

Drink to his heart’s content with his master?

He thought back to when he was in the Cottage, when his disciples were drinking with his master.

In the end, they were already unconscious but his master was still awake.

If this old man went, he probably wouldn’t even be able to leave the Cottage!

The two of them chatted as they drank.

Ye Qiubai also understood many things about the Middle Latitude Region.

For example, in the Middle Latitude Region.

There were no other forces in each realm.

Instead, every realm was controlled by a faction.

This was very different from the division of power here.

After all, in low-latitude realms, there were usually dozens or hundreds of factions of various sizes.

At this moment, the old man said, “Little boy, I like your personality very much.”

“However, this is not a reason for you to convince me. So, let’s go.”

“I’ll pretend you’ve never been here.”

Ye Qiubai smiled and said, “Senior, can you listen to me for a while more?”

“Tell me. I want to see how you can convince me.”

Ye Qiubai put down the wine glass in his hand and said, “Senior, what do you think of the Low Latitude Realm?”

The old man was about to say something when Ye Qiubai interrupted, “The spiritual qi is poor and the cultivation of the civilization is backward.”

“There are very few secret realms and treasured lands that can be excavated in such a place.”

The amount of spiritual qi would directly affect the birth of natural treasures and the strength of the mystic realm after all.

The amount of spiritual qi would directly affect the birth of natural treasures and the strength of the mystic realm.

Seeing this, Ye Qiubai continued, “In that case, the cake is only so big. It’s impossible for your seven major factions to split it equally, right?”

“If 1 say something that might make you angry, among the seven factions, your Wuxu City is one of the weakest, right?”

The old man did not refute.

What Ye Qiubai said was the truth after all.

“In that case, the weakest factions will definitely have the least share of the pie.”

“And the cake is only so big. In the end, how much will you get?”

Hearing this, the old man sneered. “Even if what you said is true and we’re very dissatisfied with this, what can we do?”

“I know what you mean, kid. You just want to fan the flames among the seven major factions to cause internal strife.”

“To be honest, your words have already convinced me more than half.

However, there’s another decisive factor. It’s because of this factor that I can’t fall for your scheme to sow discord.”

Ye Qiubai smiled and said, “1 know what Senior is worried about. It’s just that it’s useless to sow discord. The other party’s faction is much stronger than his own, right?”

“Since you know, don’t waste your breath.”

To be honest, to be said to be weaker than the other factions by a junior…

This feeling was quite depressing.

“What if I say that I might be able to convince the Heavenly Sword Peak Sect?”

The old man’s turbid eyes, which looked a little blurry, suddenly widened at this moment, and divine light flashed!

“Are you serious?”

The Heavenly Sword Peak Sect was one of the strongest among the seven factions!

Its power was not inferior to He Wuwei and the others!

Moreover, in terms of strength, even He Wuwei here was probably inferior to the people from the Heavenly Sword Peak Sect!
