Elder Peng said, "Outer Monarch, Tian Cang dispatched troops to help us this time. I'm afraid it's not that simple!"
He wasn't optimistic about Elder Long going to Tian Cang to persuade them to dispatch troops. Elder Long had been away for nearly two months, but there was still no news. He thought that Elder Long's request for help had failed.
He didn't expect that Tian Cang would actually be persuaded by him and send 500,000 troops to the border. This really shocked him.
However, on second thought, Tian Cang was definitely not a kind-hearted person. At this time, it was already good that they did not hit him when he was down. However, they were still so enthusiastic to help Mo Luo out. There must be some secret behind this.
"In Elder Peng's opinion, why would Tian Cang help us out?" Outer Monarch Mara didn't like Elder Peng's words, but they weren't completely unreasonable.
Mara was far away from Tian Cang, and they usually didn't have much interaction. Dragon Eagle and Xiaohai were in the middle, so they rarely had any interaction.
However, because of the alliance between Dragon Eagle and Xiaohai, they weren't completely without any interaction. At least, Elder Long was right. Tian Cang didn't want to see Dragon Eagle and Xiaohai being powerful.
Therefore, Mara and Tian Cang now had a common enemy, Dragon Eagle and Xiaohai.
"It's very simple. In my opinion, Tian Cang is willing to dispatch troops because of benefits. As long as there are enough benefits, nothing is impossible. Just like Xiaohai and Dragon Eagle, they have always been enemies, but in the end, they still came together because of benefits. Tian Cang is no exception. It's simply impossible for Tian Cang to help us get out of this predicament unconditionally! "Elder Peng spoke with fervor and assurance, and the example he gave was also very obvious. Everyone nodded in agreement.
Outer Monarch Mara frowned and said, "So Elder Peng means that Elder Long must have promised Tian Cang a lot of benefits. That's why Tian Cang gathered so many troops at the border of Dragon Eagle and Xiaohai!"
"Outer Monarch, that's for sure. Otherwise, Tian Cang wouldn't be so kind and generous as to send 1 million troops. However, we are not sure how far Tian Cang will help us. If they really start a war with Long Ying and Xiao Hai, I'm afraid that Elder Long will give Tian Cang a lot of benefits! "Elder Peng added.
Mara Outer Monarch's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He was no longer as happy as he was at the beginning. He didn't know how many benefits Elder Long had promised Tian Cang this time. If it was too much, he might not agree to it.
"Outer Prince, Elder Long has returned!" At this moment, a disciple suddenly stood outside the main hall and said.
"Elder Long is back! That's great! Please invite him to the main hall!" Outer Mara King was overjoyed. Elder Long's return was just too timely.
Instead of worrying about Tian Cang, it was better to let Elder Long explain Tian Cang's situation in person.
Not long after, Elder Long arrived at the main hall. When he saw that everyone was present, his heart was filled with emotions. However, he didn't know how to explain the contract to the Outer King. He also didn't know how everyone would react after reading the contents of the contract.
"Outer Prince, I didn't disappoint Tian Cang this time and successfully got Tian Cang to send out his troops. I'm sure Outer Prince has also heard about Tian Cang's troops! "Elder Long said as he bowed.
"I have indeed heard about it. Elder Long, thank you for your hard work this time. I just don't know if Tian Cang has any conditions to help us this time. " At this moment, Outer Mara King was in no mood to pay attention to these red tape and went straight to the point.
He was most worried that Tian Cang wouldn't go too far. If that happened, he would still remember Tian Cang's kindness. If their conditions were too harsh, he might not accept it.
"This …" Elder Long suddenly hesitated. He was also a bit worried. He didn't know if the Outer Prince would accept such conditions.
However, since he had already reached an agreement with Tian Cang, he would definitely persuade the Outer Prince to accept the contents of the contract. After all, Mara still needed Tian Cang's help. This contract must be accepted by the Outer Prince.
"What? Elder Long, is there anything that you can't say to me? " When Outer Mara King saw Elder Long's expression, he suddenly became anxious. He was afraid that Elder Peng was right. Tian Cang was indeed demanding an exorbitant price. This time, it wouldn't be so easy for them to send out their troops.
Elder Peng's mouth flashed a trace of a sinister smile. He knew that Tian Cang wouldn't do anything until he saw the rabbit. How could they help Mara for free?
Now it seemed that his guess was absolutely right. Tian Cang didn't just put forward conditions. Moreover, from Elder Long's expression, the conditions were not simple. This was going to be interesting.
Back then, he had warned Elder Long that it was not that easy to go on a diplomatic mission. Now that Tian Cang had an absolute advantage, if Mara sent himself to him, who else would he kill?
"Outer Prince, please take a look at this contract first. All the conditions that I discussed with Outer Prince Tian Cang are written in this contract!" Elder Long didn't know how to explain this matter, so he could only show the contract to Outer Prince.
Hearing Elder Long's words, everyone's expression became a little ugly. It was obvious that there was more than one condition in this contract.
Outer Prince Mara took the contract and saw that the more he read, the uglier his expression became.
"Elder Long, these are the conditions that you discussed with them?" Outer Prince Mara was a little angry. Before he went on a diplomatic mission, he saw Elder Long's confident appearance. He thought that Elder Long would really be able to get Tian Cang to help them easily.
However, he didn't expect that in the end, he would come back with such conditions. Tian Cang was simply too much.
"Outer Prince, what conditions did Tian Cang put forward in the contract? Can you let us have a look? "Elder Peng stood up and said, as if he wanted to watch a show.
"Take it and have a look!" Outer Prince Mara directly threw the contract to Elder Peng.
The others quickly gathered in front of Elder Peng and looked at the contents of the contract together. The more they read, the angrier they became. Tian Cang was indeed demanding an exorbitant price.
There were a total of three conditions written in the contract. The first was that Tian Cang would help Mara solve the problem. In the future, if Dragon Eagle and Xiaohai's territories would each be taken, and Tian Cang indicated that he wanted Xiaohai's territory.
The second condition was that all the resources that Tian Cang needed to send troops to help Mara solve the problem would be borne by Mara.
The third condition was that Mara would provide one-third of the total resources in his territory to Tian Cang every year for 50 years.
