Chapter 1349 Threats and Persuasion
Seeing the expressions of the four people changing again, Wang Chu knew that they were now like frightened birds and could not withstand the slightest disturbance.
After finally stopping the battle, the transfer of our own team is still going on, but we can't get too excited.
"I laughed at you for taking it for granted. I put you back. What if you regret it? There is no trust between us." Wang Chu quickly stopped his smile and said seriously.
The four of them wanted to explain, but when they thought about their previous behavior of abandoning their disciples to escape alone, Wang Chu would probably not be convinced even if they explained it, and they suddenly became anxious.
Facing Wang Chu's doubts, the four of them could not refute, and judging from Wang Chu's posture, they had already started bargaining, so everything could still be discussed.
The four of them hurriedly gathered together and started talking in a low voice. Wang Chu sneered at this.
He didn't even bother to eavesdrop on the conversation between the four of them. To be honest, he even thought they were a little too naive.
This is almost a dead-end situation. You actually think there is room for negotiation. Do you think Wumen has the upper hand now, so are you willing to give alms?
Through getting along with various sects, he actually discovered early on that because of their long history and long retreat from the world, most monks from sects still retained some ancient moral concepts.
Even though intrigues are unavoidable in the world of cultivation, their tricks are still within certain constraints, and they are not unscrupulous.
Come to think of it, the earliest of these sects retreated from the world thousands of years ago. At that time, the culture of getting along with each other was far from being as unlimited as in later generations.
Moreover, after escaping from the world, they have reproduced from generation to generation, and they have always lived with their own family members, fighting and competing for each other, but they will definitely be limited to an acceptable range. If they exceed this range, they will definitely be severely punished.
Therefore, monks in the sect are used to restraint and lack experience in fighting. After they were born, they were also used to using force to face problems and subdue their opponents.
Only those sects that unlock the seals of the secret realm and enter the original world every few tens or hundreds of years are slightly backward in thinking, but they are not progressing with the development of the times. Even if this will cause a serious loss of the vitality of the secret realm, the strength of the monks is generally Not too strong, like Hundred Flowers Sect.
As for these maritime sects, those who can seize the overseas fairyland are the most powerful sects in the past. The reserved resources are saved and used to support the present. When the great age comes, they exchange the opportunity for ideological progress for more tyrannical sects. strength.
This is also one of the important reasons why Wang Chu has succeeded many times by relying on not so clever plans.
He knows very well that as the connection with the times becomes closer, the monks of the sect may not have grown much in terms of force, but their scheming will inevitably be greatly improved, so he must strive to build Wumen into a top force in the shortest possible time. , stand firm on the bow.
Otherwise, when the monks of the sect become accustomed to the influence of various cultures again, it will be difficult to win the struggle unless they have a firm advantage in force.
It won't even be long before the forces of the entire world will undergo a reshuffle. Sects that master various secret arts and magic weapons will replace the rule of weak countries. By then, even if countries in the world are separated by vast oceans, transportation connections will not be a big problem. .
He is not willing to work hard with a bunch of "idiots" and end up wiping out all his wealth and missing out on the best stage of development.
While the four of them were communicating and had no energy to pay attention to his side, Wang Chu moved his body very casually, watching the teams alternate back and forth, gradually replacing the team in better condition on the inside, while the team in relatively poor condition moved to the other side. .
Then he quietly made a few gestures behind his back, and Eleven and others understood, and swarmed up and took Cheng Ye and the others under custody again.
Just when Cheng Ye and the others wanted to continue to cooperate in the resistance, something strange in the sea of consciousness made them panic. It was a warning that the slave mark was triggered. They knew that they could not take action again, but they really couldn't understand why Wang Chu suddenly Ask them to cease their activities.
The movement here attracted the sideways glances of the four people in the conversation. Then the four people immediately changed to a defensive posture and quickly asked: "How are you doing?"
"It's nothing. It's you who I want to talk to. It has nothing to do with them. These three defeated generals want to take advantage of the chaos. I have to ensure the stability of the rear." Wang Chu spoke calmly, then turned to look at Cheng Ye The three of them mocked, "Oh, although my cultivation and sealing skills are relatively low-level, I managed to break through in exchange for a short recovery of combat power. Unfortunately, I still can't break through the encirclement."
The first sentence dispelled the alertness of the four people, but the last sentence made them feel ashamed.
In fact, as long as they were less suspicious and took the initiative to open the gap, those three people had a chance to rush out, but now they are in a passive situation again.
Yes, they don't want to be defeated and captured. Could it be that Cheng Ye and the others are willing?Given the opportunity to break free, how could he not want to seize it with all his strength? The reason why things returned to the starting point was not because Wang Chu was cunning or Wumen was tricky, but because of their own problems.
"Your Excellency, please be kind to them for now. After all, they are also your bargaining chips." One person reminded.
"I can make a concession. As long as you hand over the storage magic weapon to me as a mortgage, I can return these three people to you first. When an ideal price is negotiated, I can let the five of you leave together." Wang Chu had an idea and smiled.
The four of them were a little confused when they heard this. How could Wang Chu be so easy to talk to? Could there be some deception involved?
If they hand over the storage magic weapon, they will really not keep any trump card. If Wang Chu suddenly regrets it, wouldn't they have no choice but to be slaughtered based on their current situation?
Wang Chu knew that he would be suspected, so he said a few more words to explain: "You can also see that I don't want Wumen to suffer heavy casualties. It's because you bullied people too much before, and Wumen can only put it to death and survive.
"Now that negotiations have begun and our Wumen has achieved a great victory, the outcome has been determined. Any further war will only increase casualties and will be harmful to our Wumen.
"I asked you to hand over the storage magic weapon to ensure that no more fighting will break out. In exchange, you have to show sincerity. It doesn't matter if these three people return it to you. Anyway, I still have the monks in my hands.
"I believe we will be able to negotiate a satisfactory price, but if you do not return within the specified time, not only will all the monks be wiped out, but I will also publicize today's events. Who will bear this responsibility? I'm sure No need for me to say more.
"Including the two demigods who are still being suppressed and beaten by the Wolf Lord, I will never let go of them from beginning to end. I will also blame their death on you. It is your betrayal and seeking glory that has led to all the bad consequences.
"Don't worry, those guys who were spying in secret have been dealt with by me. As long as my Wu Sect doesn't go out and talk nonsense, no one will know what happened at the last moment."
The more the four of them listened, the more frightened they became. Wang Chu's heart was so dark that it could drip. This ability to reverse black and white was really impressive.
If what happened today were publicized, even if they survived, it would be no different from the fact of surrender, and their future would still be almost ruined.
Not only that, those sects that had no one to escape back were intimidated by the power of Wumen and did not dare to come here to seek justice. They would only vent all their anger on them. The sects behind them would never be able to protect them.
