307: Strong and Negotiable

Since the other party wanted to get straight to the point, Zhou Luo didn't hold back either.

After all, with his current Realm, talking to the other party was entirely on equal footing.

In fact, due to his previous impressive achievements, the other party might even be wary of him.

As expected, Xue Dingshan's eyes flashed, and he was slightly startled.

He chuckled lightly: "Zhou Fellow Daoist is absolutely right, this place was originally a city of the Lu Family."

"It's just that you don't understand, the person in charge of Feng City and the Lu Family Main Family are actually not from the same lineage, and their philosophies have always been different."

"They were actually against the Family starting this great war, so they secretly chose to join our Xue Family long ago."

"Currently, Feng City is essentially still the Lu Family's, but our Xue Family always has to look out for our allies."

He spoke flawlessly, not mentioning his occupation of the city at all, instead framing the facts as the Lu Family members actively inviting them.

This way, even if Zhou Luo wanted to make trouble and say the Lu Family had been wiped out.

He could also use the opportunity to say that this part of the Lu Family was different from the Lu Family Main Family, and since they had allied with the other party, they couldn't just watch them perish.

This gave them a reason to act.

Zhou Luo was very clear about this, but he wasn't here today to pretend or scheme with the other party.

At this time, it was clearly a showdown between two major families; if they didn't show strength, everything would be futile.

That's why he called upon the Wang Family and Li Family.

"What if my Lin Family wants this Feng City?" He stared at the other party, his gaze intense.

He wanted to probe the other party's bottom line.

Xue Dingshan's expression remained unchanged, and he smiled: "Zhou Fellow Daoist, since this Lu Family has split, Feng City no longer belongs to the Lu Family, and they have allied with our Xue Family, so naturally, we cannot watch them perish."

He seemed confident, intending to respond with legal legitimacy.

"Does splitting the Family mean they no longer bear the surname Lu? I don't think the Wang Family and Li Family would agree either." Zhou Luo looked at the two people opposite him.

The Wang Family Head immediately said seriously: "Senior Zhou is right, in this great war, my Wang Family has already formed an enmity with the Lu Family, and it's impossible to let them develop."

"I think the same as Senior Zhou," the Li Family Elder said, lowering his head.

Xue Dingshan's smile stiffened, knowing that the three major Longevity Families were pressuring him.

Originally, he was thinking of delaying the matter, but seeing the other party's stance, it seemed unlikely to end amicably.

"Then, according to Zhou Fellow Daoist, with the Lu Family wiped out, this should rightfully be a city without an owner, right?" Xue Dingshan retorted.

If it were a city without an owner, then it seemed it wouldn't matter if their Xue Family occupied it.

"No, it already belongs to the Lin Family," Zhou Luo said forcefully.

The simple exchange made him realize that the other party had no intention of giving up the city.

Since that was the case, there was no need to waste any more words.

Xue Dingshan frowned slightly, and the Aura on his body erupted.

Instantly, a heavy pressure descended, completely suffocating the Wang Family Head and the Li Family Elder, making their Faces turn red.

"What does Zhou Fellow Daoist mean?"

In Xue Dingshan's eyes, although the other party had become famous by killing two Foundation Establishment cultivators in one battle, he always felt that the other party was just lucky.

After all, the first Foundation Establishment cultivator had just successfully established their Foundation, their Realm was unstable, and being killed was only natural.

As for the Lu Family Patriarch, he had previously fought intensely with the Lin Family Old Ancestor once, and Zhou Luo's subsequent action couldn't be considered a solo fight.

So in Xue Dingshan's eyes, the other party at most had some strength, but facing an experienced Foundation Establishment Expert like him, they definitely wouldn't gain any advantage.

Zhou Luo narrowed his eyes, and a gentle breeze surged around him.

The gentle breeze swept past, instantly dissolving the pressure in the area.

The Wang Family Head and the Li Family Elder breathed a sigh of relief, gasping for air.

"I didn't come here to negotiate with you. Your Xue Family can refuse to hand over Feng City, as long as you're not worried about my Lin Family's iron cavalry."

Zhou Luo's voice was calm, yet it carried a powerful and domineering Aura.

Landing in the area, it instantly shattered the originally harmonious atmosphere, making it tense and confrontational.

Xue Dingshan didn't expect the other party to dare to be so arrogant on his territory.

Wasn't he afraid that he would directly suppress and kill the other party here?

Even if he actually did that, afterwards, the Lin Family, having lost a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator, would definitely not dare to say anything, and he could use the opportunity to continue expanding the Xue Family's territory.

It was just that his gaze couldn't help but look towards the two people from the Wang Family and Li Family who seemed to be sitting on pins and needles.

If they weren't here, he would really want to test the other party's strength.

But in the end, he still had to be mindful of these two major Longevity Families.

Especially the Li Family which had two Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Once the three major Longevity Families joined forces, there would be five Foundation Establishment cultivators personally present.

The top priority was still to make these two families retreat when they encountered difficulties.

So Xue Dingshan deliberately said a sentence without any warning: "I have a son who was fortunate enough to become a disciple of the Green Mountain Sect."

It was the Green Mountain Sect, not the Azure Origin Sect.

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the Wang Family Head and the Li Family Elder changed slightly, and they couldn't help but look at Zhou Luo.

Zhou Luo, on the other hand, understood in his heart, knowing why the other party was so confident.

So it was the Green Mountain Sect that wanted to interfere in the Qingyuan Domain through the Xue Family.

It's just, aren't they afraid that the Azure Origin Sect will find out?

Or perhaps the two great Immortal Sects, which once shared the same origin, had reached some kind of private agreement?

Regarding the situation of the Azure Origin Sect, Zhou Luo only knew about it through his children.

After stepping into the Foundation Establishment Realm, he only deeply realized during this period that Longevity Families were merely like dogs compared to Immortal Sects.

He wanted to go further, obtain a large amount of resources to break through to a higher Realm, and relying solely on one Immortal Family is not enough.

After all, cultivating one Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator required so many resources, what about the Golden Core Realm, the Nascent Soul Realm?

The cultivation resources needed for that were extremely terrifying.

It was not something a small Lin Family could support.

He had to expand.

If he wanted to expand in the Qingyuan Domain, he had to strengthen his influence in the Azure Origin Sect.

That's why he would let his talented children become disciples of Immortal Sects.

After a hundred years, when these children gained capability, they could also influence his Family.

Moreover, the more children he had, the more comprehensive his grasp of information about the Azure Origin Sect became.

Just like now, he was still unable to determine the Azure Origin Sect's attitude towards this matter, so he could only act cautiously.

However, he also expected that the Green Mountain Sect would not be so blatant in the Qingyuan Domain.

So he retorted: "It just so happens that a pair of my children are also in the Azure Origin Sect, and their Revered Master is even a Golden Core True Person."

The meaning of these words was very clear: although the Azure Origin Sect might not necessarily be backing him, as long as the Xue Family dared to alarm the Green Mountain Sect, he would definitely report this matter to the Azure Origin Sect and spread it throughout the entire Qingyuan Domain.

At that time, for the sake of Face and dignity, the Azure Origin Sect would not possibly allow the Green Mountain Sect to interfere.

A hint of astonishment flashed in Xue Dingshan's eyes; he didn't expect the other party to completely disregard the Green Mountain Sect.

The matter of the Green Mountain Sect supporting their Xue Family was actually done in secret.

Although the message from his son indicated that there was no need to worry about the Azure Origin Sect, if this matter were to spread, it would also have a bad impact on their Xue Family.

He was originally certain that the other party would be hesitant and give up this Feng City.

After all, the Lin Family's gains after this great war were not small.

But he didn't expect the other party to be so forceful.

Looking at the other party's calm and unhurried demeanor, his heart sank, and he sent a voice transmission: "Zhou Fellow Daoist, this matter is not entirely non-negotiable."

If the other party didn't back down, then they, who were already in the wrong, could only back down.

Moreover, this kind of matter couldn't be known by other Longevity Families at this time, so he chose to use Divine Sense voice transmission.

Zhou Luo responded.

"How do you think we should negotiate?"
