Lu Jiangpeng also laughed, "Haha, Qing Xuan is right. Our Tiancong Academy has always been easy to negotiate with. Dean Ding, just write an IOU."
Ding Yuan's face was ashen. Naturally, he couldn't write an IOU. "This price is unacceptable. I'll take Xing Huo, Shangguan Haitang, and the Night Guards with me. Five million low-grade spirit stones. I don't need the guards of Yanmen City. Although Duanyang Country is vast, we don't want a pile of trash."
Gao Jie and the others were so ashamed that they wanted to kill themselves. If their meridians weren't sealed and they were shackled, they would've killed themselves on the spot.
"Five million low-grade spirit stones? Do you think our Tiancong Academy is a beggar? "
Yang Qingxuan said with righteous indignation, "This is an insult to our Tiancong Academy. It's also an insult to Sir Xing Huo and Sir Haitang. Instead of living in humiliation, why don't we cut off their heads and preserve their dignity!"
Xing Huo and Shangguan Haitang stared at him like dead fish. They were so angry that they wanted to skin him alive.
Ding Yuan said angrily, "Five million is already a lot. At most, eight million!"
Yang Qingxuan sneered, "We're very sincere in negotiating with Sir Dean, but Sir Dean is talking nonsense with us. Do you think we have nothing better to do? I'm not talking anymore. Goodbye! "
After that, he didn't want to talk anymore.
Ding Yuan wanted to die. He looked at Lu Jiangpeng with an ugly expression and scolded, "What kind of student is this? You're going too far!"
Lu Jiangpeng coughed a few times and said, "One billion per person. This price is actually quite reasonable, but it's a bit difficult for Dean Ding to take it out. Since Dean Ding doesn't want to write an IOU, I have another idea. I heard that Haoran Academy has three great treasures. They are the Octagonal Torch Dragon Lantern, the Wenqing Ancient Scroll, and the Sword Manual. These three treasures are extraordinary. They should be worth some spirit stones together. "
Ding Yuan's expression changed. He said angrily, "Lu Jiangpeng, how dare you covet our academy's three great treasures!"
Yang Qingxuan laughed, "So Dean Ding has such wealth. Elder Lu gave you an idea, but you don't know what's good for you. that's right. The total value of the three treasures will be thirty million low-grade spirit stones. "
"Pu!"
Ding Yuan spewed out a mouthful of old blood and said furiously, "These three supreme treasures are all priceless items, ignorant junior!"
Yang Qingxuan said coldly, "Fine, fine. I'm an ignorant junior, and you're awesome. I wonder who's the one begging who now."
Lu Jiangpeng said earnestly, "Dean Ding, you and I have known each other for so many years. Today, I have to give you face. Even if we suffer a huge loss in this deal, I will accept it. You can take any one of the three treasures and take these people with you. "
Yang Qingxuan pretended to be surprised and said, "Elder Lu, how can you let them off so easily? This deal is too unprofitable. We can't do it. "
Lu Jiangpeng sighed. "Who asked me to be so familiar with Dean Ding? No matter how much I lose, I have to admit it."
Seeing that they were echoing each other, Ding Yuan couldn't even lose his temper. He said dejectedly, "The three treasures are the inheritance of the Haoran Academy. I can't lose any of them. Even if I kill Spark and Shangguan Haitang, I will never give them to you."
Lu Jiangpeng said, "Treasures are dead, but people are alive. How about this? I don't want the Octagonal Candle Dragon Lamp. Let me read the Wen Qing Ancient Scroll and the Sword Manual for a year. I'll return them to you after a year. "
Ding Yuan's heart was moved, and he was a little shaken.
Lu Jiangpeng continued, "Dean Ding, you should be very clear about how serious the matter of Shangguan Haitang sneaking into our country is. Even if she's not beheaded when she's taken back to the capital, she will definitely be humiliated. At that time, the ransom demanded by the royal family will be no less than mine. "
Shangguan Haitang's face showed fear.
Ding Yuan also thought of the stakes and said, "I can let you read the Wen Qing Ancient Scroll and the Sword Manual, but they can't leave the Haoran Academy."
Lu Jiangpeng sneered and said, "That means we have to go to the Haoran Academy in person. If we're beaten to death by you, who can I cry to?"
Ding Yuan said, "Don't worry about this. I can guarantee your safety."
Lu Jiangpeng snorted and said, "It's too dangerous. What's the use of your guarantee?"
Ding Yuan said angrily, "Then what should we do? It's impossible to let the two scrolls leave the Academy! "
Lu Jiangpeng said, "Don't be so absolute. I remember that Dean Ding once took the Wen Qing Ancient Scroll to the Eastern Thunder Country more than twenty years ago."
Ding Yuan admitted, "That did happen, but the scrolls have never left my hands."
Lu Jiangpeng nodded and said, "Similarly, Dean Ding can also stay at the Tiancong Academy for a year or so."
Ding Yuan was stunned and fell silent.
Xing Huo said in grief and indignation, "Dean, you can't!"
Yang Qingxuan raised his shoe and waved it in front of Xing Huo. Xing Huo was so scared that he quickly shut his mouth, his face pale.
Ding Yuan hurriedly scolded, "Don't hit him! I'll go with you to the Tiancong Academy! "
Only then did Yang Qingxuan put away his shoe and put it back on. He pointed at Xing Huo and said, "You're lucky."
Everyone's face was full of black lines.
Xing Huo was even more ashamed and indignant. His eyes were spitting fire, but he didn't dare to make a sound. Otherwise, if he really got hit by the sole of the shoe, his reputation would be ruined.
Yang Qingxuan said, "Elder Lu, it's not worth it to exchange two scrolls for the two of them. It's best if we gather all the teachers and students to read the ancient scroll and sword manual together. "
Ding Yuan almost fainted. He angrily rebuked, "No! Only one of you can read these two scrolls, and you must swear not to teach them to a second person! "
These were Haoran Academy's two greatest treasures. Even in Haoran Academy, only elders were qualified to read them. If all the teachers and students of the Tiancong Academy saw them, where would the academy's dignity be?
Lu Jiangpeng also knew that this was impossible. He chuckled and said, "We'll talk about this later. Dean Ding, please follow us back to the academy."
Ding Yuan sighed, looking much older in an instant.
Yang Qingxuan immediately asked people to release Xing Huo and Shangguan Haitang, but he didn't unlock their meridians. At the same time, he gave them a carriage and let them go back to Duanyang Country alone.
As for the Blackguards and Gao Jie, they were still locked up and didn't intend to release them.
Ding Yuan didn't care about their lives. Seeing Xing Huo and Shangguan Haitang go away, he let out a long sigh, but he also felt relieved.
Although the Wen Qing Ancient Scroll and the Sword Sutra were the two most precious treasures of the Haoran Academy, there were many records of them being read by the Outer Yard for hundreds of years. As long as the Sutra itself was not lost, it was not a very difficult thing.
If Xing Huo and Shangguan Haitang were taken back to the capital of Cangnan Country, it would be an irreversible situation.
"Let's go."
He sighed and set off with Yang Qingxuan and others.
Although the people of King Lu's Mansion were unwilling, they also knew that they couldn't do anything about it. The result was much better than expected.
