Chen Xie deliberately pondered for a moment and said, "Elder Han Li, you're joking. How many White Crystals—I dare not decide on behalf of the Sect Leader. But the Sect Leader has instructed that if Elder Han Li offers 10 million White Crystals, I can make the decision. If it's below this amount, we'd have to wait until the Sect Leader returns from the Heaven Ascending Plateau to discuss further."
"Ten million!"
"He's truly making an exorbitant demand!"
Upon hearing the figure of ten million White Crystals, the generals of the Divine Shadow Army were agitated.
Ten million White Crystals!
How many forces in the Red Domain can afford this?
Even the Red Leaf Sect might not manage.
After hearing this, Chen Xie had no intention of continuing the conversation, "Elder Han Li, perhaps it would be best if you discuss this with our Sect Leader when they return. Below 10 million White Crystals, I really can't make the decision."
Han Li, slightly dissatisfied, said, "Do you truly not wish to give this old man some face? You must know that whether it's the All-Knowledge Tower or the Immortal Sect, both are forces within the Red Domain, under the jurisdiction of my Domain Lord's Mansion. You should think carefully before speaking. It's better to have one more friend than one more enemy."
Chen Xie sighed, "Elder Han Li, who would dare disrespect you... Yet below 10 million White Crystals, I really can't decide for the Sect Leader. Why don't you negotiate with our Sect Leader, I can help you get in touch with them."
Han Li coldly agreed, "I don't have much time."
"You won't have to wait long."
With that, Chen Xie immediately cut off contact via the Sound Transmission Stone.
In the next second, Han Li slammed the table in front of him, breaking it into pieces.
Chen Xie, on the other hand, smiled as he contacted Wen Ping, relaying the conversation with Han Li word by word to Wen Ping.
Finally, Chen Xie added, "Sect Leader, do you think we should continue to hold them off?"
Not willing to give 10 million?
Then we'll continue to hold you off.
Let's see who's more anxious!
Wen Ping had been in the Undead Hell for a few hours, finding nothing, and upon hearing that Han Li wasn't even willing to give 10 million White Crystals, he immediately said, "Let me handle this!"
As he contacted the people in Supreme City, Wen Ping spoke, "Who is looking for me?"
Upon hearing it was a different person, Han Li quickly responded, "Are you the Sect Leader of the Immortal Sect?"
"Hmm."
Wen Ping answered.
By now, Han Li was in no mood for niceties, responding angrily, "Sect Leader Wen, your people are a bit too greedy! An Immortal Daily headline, 10 million White Crystals for one day?"
"He was mistaken, it's 20 million White Crystals!"
Wen Ping replied.
Han Li's face immediately hardened.
He paused, suspecting he misheard, "Sect Leader Wen, how much did you just say?"
"10 million is the price for a friend. 20 million is the normal price." Wen Ping responded.
Han Li angrily said, "So you're saying we're not friends?"
Wen Ping calmly replied, "You were considered a friend until you openly insulted one of my people."
"You—"
Han Li's forehead veins bulged violently.
This is too much!
A mere sect leader dares speak to him like this!
"Are you buying or not? If not, don't waste my time." Whether it's 10 million White Crystals or 20 million, it's irrelevant to Wen Ping.
Because this amount of White Crystals would at most provide the Immortal Sect with an extra embellishment.
The urgent priority is to have a few more Half-Step Celestial Unrestricted or a Celestial Unrestricted powerhouse to oversee the Immortal Sect.
With the time wasted arguing, it's better to re-enter the Undead Hell to search around.
