Zhong Shan frowned as he looked at this scene. He felt a sense of closeness towards the wolf clan. After all, the national beast of the Daikon State was the wolf. In other words, his identity was also very 'prominent' in front of these fire wolves.
Yuheng Sect and Kai Yang Sect were allied with each other. They could be considered to be related to him. Hence, he didn't want anything to happen to them. Faced with a dilemma, Zhong Shan was prepared to not help either side. Or he could figure out the reason and mediate between them.
In less than half an incense stick's worth of time, the two people who went out earlier brought back a cowering red-clothed man.
The red-clothed man's eyes were filled with panic and fear.
"Father, father, you have to save me." The red-clothed man ran towards Liu Suifeng as soon as he entered the hall.
"Unfilial son, kneel down!" Liu Suifeng shouted angrily. His eyes were red.
"Plop." It was as if an invisible pressure was pressing down on him. The red-clothed man suddenly knelt on the ground.
"Father, father, I am your son!" The red-clothed man shouted.
"Unfilial son, hmph, let me ask you, what else have you not said? Why are there so many wolf clans? Why are there so many of them? What did you do? Do you want Yuheng Sect to be buried with you? "Liu Suifeng shouted.
"Father, I didn't, I didn't, I told you everything, everything!" The red-clothed man shouted in fear.
The others stood quietly at the side and watched coldly. No one said a word. Yuheng Sect, such a big sect, was almost destroyed because of him. Why didn't he say it now? Was he going to say it after the sect was destroyed?
"Hmph, unfilial son, if you don't say it, I will kill you now." Liu Suifeng said angrily.
"Father, father, I am your son." The red-clothed man shouted in fear. Even tears of fear flowed from his eyes.
"I don't have a son like you. Now that the lives of the entire sect are in your hands, you still won't say it?" Liu Suifeng shouted.
The red-clothed man looked at Liu Suifeng in fear and then looked at the others. In the end, he fell to the side and sat down. He said in fear, "I can't say it. If I say it, I will die. I will definitely die."
Seeing his son like this, Liu Suifeng frowned. He sighed softly and said, "No matter what, you should say it first. If you don't, the Wolf Race will attack my Alioth Sect. Once another wolf dies, their hatred will stack, and there will be no end to it. It might even alarm the Fiery Wolf Generals. At that time, the sect will definitely be destroyed, and you will die for sure.
"Father, father, kill me. If you kill me, the Wolf Clan will leave. They will leave." The red-clothed man seemed to have been enlightened. He immediately knelt down and spoke to Liu Suifeng.
"What's going on? Tell me! "Liu Suifeng shouted angrily.
"That wolf, the one I caught last time, is actually the Fiery Wolf General's son. The Fiery Wolf General is currently in seclusion. That's why that little fire wolf was caught by us. I didn't know at the time. If I knew, I wouldn't have dared to catch it," said the red-clothed man in fear.
"When did you know?" Liu Suifeng asked angrily.
"That day. I saw that it was about to die, so I brought it out. Later, a man saved it. That man said that he had received a great favor from the Fiery Wolf General, and he just happened to recognize that little wolf. He said that the little wolf was the Fiery Wolf General's son, so he brought it back. Furthermore, he knew that I was from the Alioth Sect. Father, I was the one who harmed the Alioth Sect.
"Liu Wushuang, you!" Liu Suifeng said angrily.
"What did you do to the little wolf before that person saved it?" Princess Qian You narrowed her eyes. Soon, she found a flaw in Liu Wushuang's words. Or rather, there was a flaw. Why was he still hiding it?
"I, I …" Liu Wushuang seemed to be unable to say it.
"Hurry up and speak!" shouted Liu Suifeng.
"I heard that wolf meat was delicious, so I set up a fire and prepared to …" Liu Wushuang said fearfully.
Hearing Liu Wushuang's words, everyone was stunned. He wanted to burn a Golden Core Stage wolf alive? Zhong Shan lightly shook his head. Disasters brought on by the heavens could be avoided, but disasters brought on by oneself could not be avoided.
Liu Wushuang had originally been prepared to be scolded by his father, but now everyone was looking at the woman behind him.
"Elder, my unfilial son is unbearably naughty and has made a grave mistake. The Alioth Sect's thousand years of foundation cannot be lost. He will bear the consequences of his own actions. Let him bear the consequences of this disaster," said Liu Suifeng sorrowfully. He was clearly prepared to give up on Liu Wushuang.
As for Liu Wushuang, the only reason he had allowed Liu Suifeng to kill him was because his heart was unable to bear the fear, and he had said some chaotic words. When a person's fear surpassed their limit, they would become extremely abnormal.
But now, when Liu Suifeng was about to give up on him, Liu Wushuang was once more terrified. He sat there, trembling.
"Patriarch." The other four people called out.
"I have already made up my mind. You don't need to persuade me anymore." Liu Suifeng frowned.
Unfilial son? Even if Liu Wushuang had done such a ridiculous thing, he was still Liu Suifeng's son. Liu Suifeng had placed righteousness before family, but he still felt very uncomfortable. Who asked him to be the patriarch? Alioth Sect could not be destroyed in his hands.
"Roasted wolf? You really know how to think. You think that if you die, those wolves will not target Alioth Sect anymore? "Princess Qian You frowned.
"Elder, what should we do?" Liu Suifeng asked worriedly.
Princess Qian You ignored them and started to think. Her frown deepened as she paced back and forth.
Liu Suifeng and the others waited patiently. Zhong Shan also stood there without saying anything.
"Shui Jing, do you have any ideas?" Gu Lin immediately looked at Shui Jing and asked.
"Ideas? There's no other way. The Fiery Wolf General is now in seclusion. The wolves in the Fiery Mountain Range will definitely listen to the Fiery Wolf General's son or listen to other important wolves. However, the wolves are attacking Alioth Sect now. It's obvious that they dote on the little wolf and want to avenge it. The little wolf has been tortured to the point of death and is being roasted on the fire. Will it be appeased? Unless the Fiery Wolf General comes personally and negotiates with him. Perhaps it will be better. "Shui Jing shook his head.
Someone behind Liu Suifeng said, "It's useless. Since it's the Fiery Wolf General's son, it's even more hopeless. I heard that the Fiery Wolf General finally got a son after much difficulty and dotes on him. That's why all the wolves in the Fiery Mountain Range dote on him. If the Fiery Wolf General knows that the little wolf has been harmed like this, he will definitely be even more enraged."
Hearing that person's words, everyone became even more worried.
"Then we can only use force to subdue him?" Gu Lin frowned.
At this moment, Princess Qian You stopped and said, "Alioth Sect might not be afraid of the Fiery Wolf General, but is it worth it to completely become enemies with him?"
"Elder, as long as we can solve the problem of the wolves, I'm willing to give up my position as Sect Master," Liu Suifeng immediately said.
Glancing at Liu Suifeng, Princess Qian You frowned and said, "Give up your position as Sect Master? You didn't summon the wolves, but you didn't teach your son well. "
"Yes." Liu Suifeng nodded.
Princess Qian You frowned and thought for a moment. She then looked at Zhong Shan and saw that Zhong Shan was looking down, as if he wasn't involved in this matter. She was speechless.
"Zhong Shan, you are a member of the Rising Sun Sect, and Alioth Sect is your allied sect. If you are in trouble, you have to help. What do you think we should do?" Princess Qian You immediately asked.
"Will he have a solution?" Gu Lin mocked from the side.
Shui Jing also stared at Zhong Shan, waiting to see what Zhong Shan would do.
Ah Da and Ah Er also looked worriedly at Zhong Shan.
Seeing that Princess Qian You had mentioned him, Zhong Shan was no longer calm. He took a deep breath and suddenly looked at Liu Wushuang, who was lying on the ground, and said, "Liu Wushuang cannot escape the blame for Alioth Sect's disaster. Although ten thousand deaths won't be enough to save Alioth Sect, everything has a solution. Although the situation is critical, it is not impossible to solve it."
"Oh?" Princess Qian You looked at Zhong Shan in surprise.
With regards to the current adversity, there was almost no way to resolve it. Even Shui Jing and himself could not think of a good way to quickly retreat. Although they knew that Zhong Shan's wisdom was superior, the current situation was not something that could be resolved with wisdom. But what was with Zhong Shan's tone? It wasn't that there was no solution?
"Qian You, your subordinate really knows how to brag." Gu Lin mocked.
Shui Jing looked at Zhong Shan in surprise, a trace of surprise and expectation flashing in his eyes.
Ah Da and Ah Er took a deep breath, because they knew that as long as Zhong Shan said he had a solution, there would definitely be a solution.
As for Liu Suifeng and the rest, they looked at Zhong Shan with anticipation. Was there really a solution?
Looking at the crowd, Zhong Shan said, "When demonic beasts reach the Xiantian Realm, they have intelligence. That means they can communicate. Not to mention that there are so many demonic beasts outside. As long as they can communicate, there will be a solution. Whether the wolves retreat or not doesn't depend on how deep their hatred is. It depends on how tempting your bargaining chip is. "
"Hmph, negotiating with these beasts? Will they listen to you? Bargaining chip? The bargaining chip they want is to destroy Alioth Sect. Can you give it to them? "Gu Lin said with a mocking smile.
Gu Lin's words angered the people of Alioth Sect. They all looked at Gu Lin angrily.
"Then what kind of bargaining chip do you think we need to make the wolves retreat?" Princess Qian You asked with a frown.
Shui Jing also looked at them patiently, a trace of curiosity in his eyes. Zhong Shan's words were right, very right. But how could it be done? Like what the Crown Prince said, would the wolves listen to you? Would they sit down and negotiate with you face to face?
"What are the bargaining chips? We will only know after the negotiation. Isn't it too early to ask for them now?" Zhong Shan smiled.
"Then, can you make the wolves retreat?" Princess Qian You looked at Zhong Shan with a puzzled expression.
"I used to be a merchant, so I know how to negotiate. I am willing to lower my bargaining chip to the lowest for the Princess." Zhong Shan nodded.
"Haha, you want to negotiate with the wolves? How? "Gu Lin said with a mocking expression.
Not only Gu Lin, but the others also looked at Zhong Shan with a puzzled expression. He would lower his bargaining chip to the lowest for the Princess? How?
"What do you need?" Princess Qian You looked at Zhong Shan and asked directly.
Zhong Shan pointed at himself and said, "One person, three inches of tongue."
