Super Rich Fantasy: I Grow Stronger By Spending Money

239 The Peace Talks

Shen Changling also noticed the people on the city wall. Although he felt that their expressions were a little strange, he didn’t realize that Yi Chengrui had misunderstood. He waved excitedly to him.

“We’re back!”

Then he signaled Yi Chengrui to open the city gate.

Ye Xuan and Shen Changling didn’t look like they were being threatened. Everyone subconsciously looked at Yi Chengrui, who nodded stiffly. “Open it.”

Regardless of whether these demon beasts were plotting or if they had some other purposes, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great. Even if they wanted to resist, it would be useless. It was better to let nature take its course.

Ye Xuan looked at everyone’s dazed eyes and even some of them were at a loss. They were obviously terrified, but they had to suppress the fear in their hearts and stand there like a wooden man.

That gaze made even the demonic beasts feel uncomfortable.

He finally realized that Yi Chengrui and the others probably didn’t know the reason.

“Please wait for me here for a moment. The news wasn’t delivered in time, so the city hasn’t received the news yet. I’ll have a short conversation with the City Lord and the people to avoid neglect.”

Those demonic beasts didn’t care about trifles and probably didn’t care about these things. After all, this was a rare opportunity for peace talks. If Yi Chengrui and the others didn’t know the truth and suddenly attacked, it would not be worth it.

Ye Xuan came in front of Yi Chengrui. Before he spoke, everyone had already started asking questions.

“Elder Ye, what’s going on? We thought you were held by the demonic beasts, but now you brought them here…”

No one was worried that Ye Xuan would be bribed by the demonic beasts or betray the human race. After all, he was the one who saved Changping from the beast tide. Thus, there was no need to go through such a big detour.

“Those demonic beasts have agreed to negotiate with us.”

Ye Xuan dropped a bombshell all of a sudden. Everyone was a little dizzy, thinking that they were hallucinating.

Peace talks?

In the eyes of Yi Chengrui and the others, this was simply an impossible thing.

After all, Changping and the demonic beasts had already reached a point where they would not rest until one of them was dead. Whether it was the humans who had died at the hands of the demonic beasts or the demonic beasts who had died because of the humans, the number of deaths was very high.

In addition to the large-scale demonic beast attack, they couldn’t even sit together peacefully, let alone negotiate.

Those demonic beasts wanted nothing more than to annihilate the human race. In addition, there were powerful demons holding down the fort. Changping was weak, and the difference in strength between the two sides was too great. There was no possibility of negotiation. Moreover, demonic beasts also believed in using strength to solve problems.

“Divide the areas and set the rules. In the future, we will not interfere with each other. As long as the humans abide by the rules, the demon beasts will not gather troops and attack Changping.”

Before everyone could digest the information, Ye Xuan dropped another bomb. Yi Chengrui’s whole body felt light and unrealistic.

It wasn’t just him, the others were the same.

They were still trembling in fear before this, wondering when the next attack would be from the demonic beasts. After all, they could hide for now, but not forever. They would always live in fear if the disputes and grudges were not resolved.

Moreover, if they wanted to completely get rid of these demon beasts, they would have to spend a lot of manpower and resources. However, this method seemed unrealistic, and the investment was too much.

Now, all of these were easily solved. Who would have thought that the things that were difficult in their eyes were all easily solved by Ye Xuan? From now on, they didn’t have to worry about it anymore.

Ye Xuan and Shen Changling led the beasts in. The beasts were even kinder and more respectful to them.

Even the most powerful flood dragon, Qian Yuan, was very respectful to Ye Xuan. Yi Chengrui and the others felt that the world had become more mysterious.

“City Lord, can this Elder Ye be a demonic beast that has cultivated in human form…”

There were even some people whose imagination was running wild. Otherwise, how could they explain the change in the attitude of these demonic beasts towards Ye Xuan in such a short time?

They also noticed that although these demonic beasts were kind to Ye Xuan, they were still wary and distrustful of the humans.

Yi Chengrui didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when he heard this. “If that’s the case, Elder Ye wouldn’t have stood on our side from the beginning. Instead, he would’ve let the demonic beasts trample on us. He wouldn’t have waited until now to make a move.”

No matter how much they thought about it, they couldn’t understand the attitude of these demonic beasts. They probably couldn’t understand what Ye Xuan had done.

Only Qian Yuan knew that its attitude toward humans had been extremely bad. It had wanted to get rid of them as soon as possible. However, Ye Xuan had given it too much.

“Hurry up and inform the people in the city to not attack these demonic beasts. They must treat them with kindness. Otherwise, let alone negotiating, I’m afraid that we might not even be able to keep our lives!”

This was an opportunity that Ye Xuan had fought for with great difficulty. Yi Chengrui recalled what Ye Xuan had said before. This was probably his so-called trump card.

“Just what else that Elder Ye can’t do?”

Yi Chengrui’s admiration for Ye Xuan rose to a new level. The two of them broke into the demonic beast’s base camp and convinced them. Now they even brought the great demon behind the scenes here.

By now, he already knew that the great demon’s name was Qian Yuan. From their conversation, he could tell that the relationship between the man and the beast was extremely harmonious.

The rest of the work was basically for Yi Chengrui to send people to negotiate with those great demons.

How to divide the boundaries, the positions of both sides, how much land each side occupied, and so on, all had to be discussed. After all, this concerned the interests of the demonic beasts and Changping, and everyone wanted to have an advantage.

The negotiations didn’t start peacefully. After all, these demonic beasts still held grudges against humans, and it was impossible for them to completely dissipate in a short time. In the midst of their disputes, there were also some who were frustrated.

However, with Ye Xuan and Qian Yuan standing guard on both sides, the two sides wouldn’t fall out with each other.
