The Human Clan had paid a heavy price in this battle, but the Ghost Clan had paid an even greater price. They had suffered more casualties than the Human Clan.
Perhaps the casualties of the two clans were about the same for those above the Saint Realm. However, the casualties of the Ghost Clan cultivators below the Saint Realm were far greater than that of the Human Clan. And the cause of all this was naturally Xiao Chen.
Based on the current situation, it was already very difficult for the Ghost Clan to defeat the Human Clan. It could even be said that it was completely impossible.
The Great Sage of the Ghost Clan had fallen into the hands of the Human Clan. If the Ghost Clan continued to fight, Yin-yangzi and the others would definitely kill The Great Sage without hesitation.
Although The Great Sage was difficult to kill, it did not mean that it was impossible to kill him. At this time, the Great Sage of the Ghost Clan was trapped in the Sky Lock Formation. His life and death were in the hands of Yin-yangzi and the others. With four The Great Sage attacking at the same time, how could they not kill the Great Sage of the Ghost Clan?
They had hostages and captives, and they were not simple captives. If the Human Clan had only captured a Ghost Clan Saint, or even a Quasi-saint Great Venerable, the Ghost Clan might not have cared.
However, the Human Clan had captured The Great Sage of the Ghost Clan this time. After all, The Great Sage meant a lot to a clan.
Even the Ghost Clan only had five The Great Sage in total. The loss of any one of them would be a great blow to the Ghost Clan.
Therefore, no matter how one looked at it, the Ghost Clan would not continue to fight the Human Clan. Moreover, if the Ghost Clan and the Human Clan fought until both sides suffered, the other clans would benefit in the end.
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he chatted with Xiao Sheng for a while. Because Xiao Sheng was very weak at the moment and wanted to rest, Xiao Chen also got up and left.
The Human Clan was doing their best to treat the wounded and clean up the battlefield, and so was the Ghost Clan. On the other side of the Wanhe Mountain Range, in the aristocratic residence, the Ghost Clan was not in a good mood like the Human Clan.
They thought that they could defeat the human race in one fell swoop, but they didn't expect that the ghost race would be defeated in the end.
Who would have thought that the Dragon Race would come to the aid of the human race? Even more so, who would have thought that Gui Yantian would be defeated by Xiao Chen? And who would have thought that Xiao Chen's strength could grow to such a level?
In the Central Great Hall of the Ghost Race's encampment, Gui Fen and the other Great Saints of the Ghost Race sat together with gloomy expressions. Gui Fen first asked about Gui Yantian's situation, "How is Yantian?"
"The situation is not good. I'm seriously injured. Fortunately, I used Ghost Concealment in time to escape. However, it will be difficult for me to recover from my injuries in a short period of time. Moreover, my state of mind seems to have suffered quite a blow."
It was reasonable for Gui Yan Tian to be heavily injured. However, compared to his physical injuries, Gui Yan Tian's mental injuries were far more severe.
In this battle, not only had Xiao Chen defeated Gui Yantian, he had also dealt a heavy blow to his confidence.
Hearing this, Gui Fen said coldly, "Yantian will not be defeated by such a small matter. Try your best to treat him. As for the rest, it's up to Yantian himself. Now, let's talk about what to do next."
Gui Yantian had suffered a heavy blow from Xiao Chen. However, Gui Fen didn't believe that Gui Yantian would fall because of this.
Since Gui Yantian could become the first Holy Son of the Ghost Race, it would be strange if he was defeated so easily.
Since his life wasn't in danger, there was no need to worry. As for the crack in his state of mind, it would be up to Gui Yantian himself. If he couldn't endure it, then Gui Fen and the others wouldn't be able to do anything.
They didn't discuss Gui Yantian anymore. After this battle, Gui Fen and the others were faced with a very important decision: to fight or not to fight.
The Ghost Race had suffered a crushing defeat in the first battle. Should they continue to fight or negotiate with the human race? However, if they wanted to negotiate, then the Ghost Race would have to give compensation. Otherwise, if they didn't fight and didn't give any compensation, then the human race would definitely not agree.
Hearing Gui Fen's words, Gui Shuang and the other two's expressions turned solemn. They had never expected this situation.
After a moment of silence, Gui Shuang was the first to speak. "Let's negotiate. Elder Gui He is still in the hands of the human race."
Gui He was the Great Saint of the Ghost Race trapped in the Sky Lock Grand Formation. At the same time, he was also a Great Elder of the Ghost King Palace.
Gui Shuang proposed to negotiate. Hearing this, Gui Fen and the other two's expressions turned ugly, but they didn't object.
If Gui He hadn't fallen into the hands of the human race, then perhaps Gui Fen and the others would continue to fight. But now, Gui He was in the hands of the human race. If they chose to continue fighting, then Gui He would definitely be the first to die.
The Great Sage's importance to the Ghost Race was self-evident. Thus, even if it was for Gui He's life, Gui Fen and the others could only choose to stop fighting and negotiate.
However, Gui Fen and the others still felt humiliated to have to negotiate with the human race. After all, the Ghost Race had always been stronger than the human race. But now, they had fallen to the point where they had to take the initiative to negotiate with the human race.
They felt aggrieved and unwilling, but what could they do? Unless they could give up on Gui He's life, but that was impossible. Gui He was The Great Sage, and the Ghost Race couldn't afford to lose him.
After a moment of silence, Gui Fen said helplessly in the end, "Send someone to see if the human race is willing to negotiate."
In the end, they made their choice.
Xiao Chen didn't know what had happened in the Ghost Race. At this moment, he returned to Qin Shuirou and the others' residence. The night passed silently. The Ghost Race didn't do anything at all. Early the next morning, the Ghost Race sent a Saint to state that they wanted to negotiate.
Yin-yangzi and the others didn't make things difficult for the Ghost Race Saint. After all, he was just a messenger. Killing him wouldn't affect the Ghost Race at all, so there was no need to make things difficult for him.
Moreover, the fact that the Ghost Race had taken the initiative to negotiate was actually exactly what Yin-yangzi and the others wanted.
After all, both the Ghost Race and the human race wanted to negotiate. The human race's strength had never been at the top amongst the 100 races in the Central World. This time, they'd relied on the Dragon Race's support to defeat the Ghost Race.
If the 2 races were to continue fighting like this, then the final outcome would actually be very difficult to predict.
Don't think that everything will be fine just because the Human Race won this battle. After all, a large part of the reason for their victory was the Dragon Race. Once the battle between the two races became more intense, would the Dragon Race continue to help the Human Race?
After all, they weren't from the same race, so it was impossible for the Dragon Race to fight to the death for the human race. Once the Dragon Race withdrew, would the human race still be a match for the Ghost Race?
After all, the Dragon Race's strength wasn't the strength of the human race, so relying on external forces wouldn't last long. So, Yin-yangzi and the others actually didn't want to continue fighting the Ghost Race to the death.
