Supreme Sword God

Chapter 729 728: Initial Success, Awaiting What's Next

Ye Chen glanced at Situ Wenhai in surprise.

This guy, does he really have such authority?

Situ Wenhai said: "My grandfather sent me here to keep an eye on the Second Elder. If the Second Elder acts inappropriately, I can strip her of her negotiation rights."

Ye Chen's eyes flashed, and he didn't bother to think further, as he wasn't the one going to negotiate.

Disruption could be carried out from the sidelines.

They couldn't wait for that Demon Race Great Saint to return. Although Ye Chen was somewhat confident he wouldn't be exposed, it was better to be cautious.

"Then let's go find the people from the Holy Fist Sect together!" Ye Chen said.

"Your Highness Saki, we can cooperate just fine, why involve the Holy Fist Sect?" Situ Wenhai said.

Ye Chen sneered and said, "Situ Wenhai, do you know why His Highness sent me to participate in the negotiation? Do you truly think it's because of my status as a Demon Race Prince?

Wrong!

Even if I weren't a Demon Race Prince, I would still be the most suitable to negotiate because I have a broader perspective. I understand weighing the situation according to the circumstances. Although the Holy Fist Sect isn't that great, they at least have a foundation in Cangzhou.

Your Situ Family, and our Demon Race, have an unstable foundation in Cangzhou. Therefore, we need some runners and cannon fodder!

The Holy Fist Sect is most suitable!"

Hearing this, Situ Wenhai felt it made a lot of sense.

Then, Ye Chen led Situ Wenhai to the Holy Fist Sect's residence at the Celestial Demon Sect.

They weren't looking for Vice Sect Leader Guo Tao, representing the Holy Fist Sect in negotiations, but rather He Jie, a descendant of the Holy Fist Sect's Grand Elder who accompanied Guo Tao for exposure!

Upon meeting.

Ye Chen got straight to the point and said, "He Jie, I won't mince words. We've encountered many disagreements in this alliance negotiation.

The root cause is that the Celestial Demon Sect's Sect Leader Liu Qing is shortsighted, constantly seeking benefits for the Celestial Demon Sect, ignoring the interests of our three parties.

Now, our Demon Race and the Situ Family have already discussed it. Your Holy Fist Sect's Guo Tao is solely focused on killing Ye Chen to avenge his two sons. He has no intention of negotiating, so I hope you can step up!"

He Jie: "I..."

"What do you mean 'I'?" Ye Chen rebuked angrily, "Your status isn't low either, but you lack even a bit of composure. How can you accomplish great things in the future? I've heard that since Guo Tian from the Holy Fist Sect was killed by Ye Chen, you've had the hope of becoming a key figure in the sect, but it's your weakness that caused you to miss that opportunity.

Now is your chance to prove yourself.

Moreover, I don't need you to come forward and oppose Guo Tao right now. Let's find a place for the three of us to discuss and plan more thoroughly!"

He Jie: "..."

Ye Chen didn't give He Jie a chance to speak, continuing, "Let me be frank with you. In this alliance negotiation, your Holy Fist Sect is just an auxiliary.

Align with me, and the Holy Fist Sect stands to gain more benefits.

If you associate with Liu Qing, you'll only get the scraps off the bones after he's done.

Of course, you might not care because you're just a small figure in the Holy Fist Sect.

Guo Tao? He cares even less. He's just a madman wanting revenge against Ye Chen."

Situ Wenhai said: "He Jie, if you have the courage to take this step, I dare say the future of the Holy Fist Sect could be yours!"

From start to finish, He Jie only managed a word before being thoroughly arranged, and with his mind still not caught up, he nodded and said, "I'll discuss the plan with you!"

Let's see what happens first.

"Your Highness Saki, why don't you share your plan first?" Situ Wenhai said, actually just thinking to take a wait-and-see approach.

Whether it's feasible or not, whether to do it or not, will be decided later.

Ye Chen knew full well that it wouldn't be so easy to fool someone with mere words into risking their life. But stirring their thoughts was a sufficient start.

"This is the Celestial Demon Sect's territory; our every move is being watched. Let's find another place to talk," Ye Chen said.

"We can go out, but we shouldn't stray too far from the Celestial Demon Sect," Situ Wenhai said, "After all, it's a mess everywhere nowadays."

He Jie nodded in agreement.

Ye Chen said, "Then let's go."

"Let me bring a few stronger guards," Situ Wenhai said.

Ye Chen sneered, "Are you afraid I'm going to harm you?"

"Your Highness Saki misunderstands; it's just for assurance."

Ye Chen: "If you bring people, our plan has no assurance. You can't know what's in someone's heart; what if the people you bring are spies for Situ Li?

To prevent any mishaps, I won't bring guards either. Just the three of us, finding a place to conspire.

My status is way above you two. I'm not afraid; why should you be?"

Situ Wenhai gritted his teeth and said, "Then we shouldn't delay; let's decide quickly!"

Moments later.

The three swaggered out of the Celestial Demon Sect's territory, and no one dared to stop them.

Anyway, sneaking out in the Celestial Demon Sect's domain would be discovered. Besides, Ye Chen eagerly hoped the Celestial Demon Sect would find out, bringing all parties together for excitement.

Now, everything was proceeding smoothly according to plan, and Ye Chen had prepared several contingency plans for subsequent events.

Just as Ye Chen and the others left, the news immediately reached the ears of the Celestial Demon Sect's Sect Leader Liu Qing.

Liu Qing, eight feet tall, burly, with muscles dominating his face, had a rather fierce and fearsome appearance.

"Sect Leader, this Demon Race Saki is acting a bit strange today," a man said with his head lowered. "He suddenly approached Situ Wenhai and took He Jie out. I suspect he intends to forge secret agreements beyond the surface-level alliance negotiation.

If the three of them team up, they might force our Celestial Demon Sect into concessions during negotiations, which would be troublesome."

"Send Ziyang to handle it," Liu Qing thought for a moment and said, "Now, among the younger generation of our Celestial Demon Sect, only Ziyang can take on significant responsibilities, so it's time to give him some training."

"Sect Leader, should I go and have a look as well?"

Liu Qing shook his head, saying, "Saki, Situ Wenhai, and He Jie are all part of the younger generation. No matter how much fuss they make, it won't cause big waves.

Ziyang managing the situation is most suitable. Even if conflicts arise, they'll be nothing more than a clash of youthful pride from the younger generation.

Otherwise, if the three of them collectively accuse us of using our might to pressure others, that would be even more troublesome."

"Sect Leader, I understand!"

......

In the secret chamber at Guardian Li Qing's residence in the Celestial Demon Sect, Li Qing, who had just left not long ago, entered once more.

"Great Guardian, what's wrong this time?" Tian Bugui asked.

"It's strange. Saki from the Demon Race, Situ Wenhai from the Situ Family, and He Jie from the Holy Fist Sect, who never interacted before, suddenly joined up and left together. Could this be related to Ye Chen?" Li Qing frowned. He's currently afraid of losing control, associating any abnormality with Ye Chen.

Tian Bugui said, "Could it be that you think Ye Chen invited them out? Don't be ridiculous; Ye Chen is probably hiding in some corner, sneakily causing trouble. That kid is cunning!"

"Maybe I'm overthinking," Li Qing muttered, "When are you leaving?"

"I'll leave now."

"Aren't you waiting for Ye Chen?"

Tian Bugui said, "No, I'm not waiting. He's blessed with fortune, and I, the renowned Bright Holy Saber Tian Bugui, hiding in this little secret chamber, seem out of place."

Li Qing chuckled, "It's not your first time hiding here."

"I'm leaving!" Tian Bugui stated, then quietly left the Celestial Demon Sect under Li Qing's arrangement.

Once outside the Celestial Demon Sect's domain, Tian Bugui's eyes shone brightly.

"Ye Chen, impressive that you managed to fool those high-status youngsters out. You want me to kill them, right? Rest assured, I'll definitely find and slaughter them all!"

Tian Bugui muttered to himself, full of excitement, as a chance to prove his cleverness and intelligence had arrived!
