Chapter 796: Completely Defeated The Red Lotus
The Cloud Mountain disciples cleaned the cloud platform up. It now looked as though nothing had happened.
Meng Changdong’s words made everyone fall silent.
Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai frowned when they heard this. After a moment’s silence, the two of them exchanged a glance and stepped forward. "Master, requesting permission to return to the golden lotus domain!"
Sikong Beichen was already convinced that Lu Zhou was an elite from the golden lotus domain. He wondered in confusion, "Brother Lu has initiated his Birth Chart, and the overall strength of the golden lotus domain is much greater than the red lotus domain. Why are both of you so worried?"
"…"
The four Evil Sky Pavilion disciples remained silent. Could they tell Sikong Beichen there was only one Nine-leaf cultivator in the golden lotus domain? In general, the golden lotus domain was much weaker than the red lotus domain.
"Master, I want to go back as well." Little Yuan’er came in between Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai as she said, "Eldest Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother, bring me with you! I’ll clobber those who dare bully my seniors to death!"
"…" Lu Zhou looked at his two eldest disciples and said, "It’ll take too long. I don’t think you’ll make it in time."
Sikong Beichen said, "Brother Lu, since we have these many hostages from the Sky Martial Court, we can negotiate with them."
Indeed, that was a sound suggestion.
"The Sky Martial Court has always been conceited. I’m worried they won’t bother with us." Yao Qingquan was frequently in contact with members of the Sky Martial Court so he knew how prideful they were. The same could be said of the Flying Star House.
Meng Changdong cupped his fists and said, "Hall Master Yao has a point. I don’t think it’s the best moment for a negotiation unless we have another two major sects on our side."
"This matter aside, do you have any way of obtaining information from the golden lotus domain?" Lu Zhou asked.
Meng Changdong paced back and forth as he pondered. Finally, he said, "I do, but it will be costly."
"Let’s hear it."
"We’ll need 1,000 rare paper talismans. At the same time, the people on the other side will have to set up the same talisman Formation as well. I know how to draw the Sky Martial Court’s talisman Formation, but… we don’t have any talismans," Meng Changdong said.
Lu Zhou and Sikong Beichen turned to look at Nie Qingyun in unison, frightening and startling Nie Qingyun. He had been considering Cloud Mountain’s future so he was in a daze and was not paying attention to the conversation in his surroundings. When he felt the unnatural gazes on him, he realized what situation he was in and hastily said, "I’ll provide the talismans."
"The wise adapt to the times. Nie Qingyun… In consideration of Brother Lu, I’ll put our quarrels behind us for now," Sikong Beichen said.
"In consideration of Senior Lu, I won’t quarrel with you as well," Nie Qingyun said before he ordered his men to collect all the talismans in the Twelve Sects.
"Talismans are divided into low, middle, high, and best quality as well. For an observation at such a range, using 1,000 best quality talismans is too costly. The requirements are high as well. We’ll also need the same Formation on the other side. Hence, even if I set up the Formation here, we might not be able to see anything," Meng Changdong said.
