Chu Xiu was actually a very reasonable person. In fact, most of the time, Chu Xiu didn't want to solve problems with violence, but with reason. Unfortunately, most of the time, reason was not as effective as violence.
This time, Chu Xiu went to the Dong Family to reason with them. After all, he was not so arrogant as to destroy the Dong Family by himself and forcibly seize the Divine Jade.
When Dong Qikun, the Family Head of the Dong Family, and the Patriarch of the Dong Family heard that Chu Xiu had come to see them, both of them were stunned. Why did Chu Xiu come to the Dong Family?
Strictly speaking, there was still some hatred between Chu Xiu and the Dong Family.
In the past, during the Opening Ceremony of the Dong Family, the Dong Family wanted to seize the inheritance of Marquis Wen from Lu Fengxian, but they were taught a lesson by Chenqing Di.
If Chenqing Di had not been there, Chu Xiu would have had to fight with Lu Fengxian and the others against the Dong Family.
After that, the people of the Dong Family naturally did not dare to resent Chenqing Di, so they could only come to find trouble with Chu Xiu.
When the Eastern Qi Alliance besieged Chu Xiu, the people of the Dong Family really wanted to hit them when they were down, but they were stopped by Chenqing Di on the way.
The Dong Family was not sure whether Chu Xiu knew about it or not, so now that Chu Xiu came to visit, the Dong Family was really confused.
Moreover, even if there was no such thing, the Dong Family had already joined the side of the Righteous Path. Although Chu Xiu was not a member of the Moon Worshipping Cult, Yin Mo was also a demon. His appearance here was still a little sensitive.
Dong Qikun asked, "Patriarch, what should we do now? Should we meet or not? "
After pondering for a moment, the patriarch of the Dong Clan said, "Since he's here, let's meet him. This is the Dong Clan, and Chu Xiu came here alone. I don't think he can play any tricks."
Upon hearing the Patriarch of the Dong Clan's words, Dong Qikun waved his hand and asked someone to bring Chu Xiu into the hall.
Seeing Chu Xiu come in, Dong Qikun revealed a fake smile and said, "Official Chu is not in the Northern Yan to be the Zhen Wu Hall's governor. How come you have the time to come to West Chu? Are you preparing to create a Suppression Martial Hall in West Chu? "
Chu Xiu lightly said, "Dong Family Head must be joking. Even if I wanted to, I don't think the West Chu Royal Family would have the guts."
Dong Qikun also smiled. The West Chu Royal Family was indeed a joke in West Chu. They weren't powerful and didn't have a strong sense of existence. Most of the places in West Chu weren't managed by the West Chu Royal Family, but by some sects, aristocratic families, or the Elders of some local tribes.
Therefore, almost all the martial arts forces in West Chu didn't take the West Chu Royal Family seriously. When they were in a bad mood, it was common for them to curse the Royal Family in public and use them as a punching bag.
Chu Xiu said in a deep voice, "I'll cut to the chase. I'm here to make a deal with the Dong Clan."
Dong Qikun was surprised and asked, "What kind of deal?"
Chu Xiu leaned forward and stared at Dong Qikun, saying, "I want to trade for the Dong Clan's Divine Jade!"
Before Dong Qikun could say anything, the patriarch of the Dong Clan said, "Impossible!"
The patriarch of the Dong Clan snorted and said, "Do you know what the Divine Jade means to the Dong Clan? This isn't a treasure, but a legacy. The Dong Clan will be able to benefit from this legacy for generations to come. How could our Dong Clan possibly hand it over? "
Chu Xiu said calmly, "Don't be so excited, old senior. Since it's a deal, I can offer you something of the same level.
If the Divine Sacrificial Jade can be passed down, then the cultivation technique that I took out can also be passed down.
Have you heard of the Annihilating Sky and Destroying Earth? It's one of the most powerful demonic cultivation methods, the Great Compassion Poem. Not only am I cultivating it, but many experts in the Eastern Qi Army are also cultivating it.
There's also the Nine Words Formula of Fast and Slow, a Buddhist cultivation method. I believe Patriarch Dong has heard of it. If you don't, you can check the information of the Wind Sweeping Tower. As long as the Dong Clan agrees to trade with me, you can choose three of the Nine Words Formula of Fast and Slow.
If the Dong Clan doesn't want the martial arts of the Buddhist Sect and the Demon Sect, I have the sword art and the saber art. In short, I can give you any martial arts you want. "
After listening to Chu Xiu, the patriarch of the Dong Clan and Dong Qikun were excited. They didn't expect that Chu Xiu would be so generous. He was willing to offer his family's wealth in exchange for the Divine Jade.
Dong Qikun's eyes lit up, and he said, "You mean you can give these cultivation methods to the Dong Clan?"
Chu Xiu said calmly, "Of course not. You can only choose one of them. Otherwise, I won't call it a trade, but an inheritance."
Hearing Chu Xiu's words, the patriarch of the Dong Clan looked disappointed.
If he wanted to trade for the Dong Clan's Godsacrifice Jade with just these items, then it would be far from enough.
Chu Xiu's cultivation method inheritance wasn't a secret in the Underworld. The patriarch of the Dong Clan also knew that his cultivation method inheritance was very powerful.
If they could get all of Chu Xiu's cultivation method inheritance, it would be a great opportunity for the Dong Clan. But if they only got one cultivation method, it would only be the icing on the cake. It wouldn't directly enhance the strength of the Dong Clan.
Therefore, Dong Qikun said calmly, "I'm sorry. My Dong Clan would like to cooperate with you, Official Chu. However, you should know about the current situation in the Underworld of West Chu. Although you are not a cultivator of the Moon Worshipping Cult, the Bright Devil and the Hidden Devil are both devils. When the time comes, my Dong Clan will inevitably be suppressed. So, I hope Official Chu will be magnanimous."
Chu Xiu didn't pester Dong Qikun. He just nodded and left decisively. Dong Qikun and the Patriarch of the Dong Family were stunned by this.
Dong Qikun asked doubtfully, "Patriarch, what do you think Chu Xiu is going to do with the Divine Jade?"
The patriarch of the Dong Clan thought for a moment and said, "I heard that Chu Xiu's attainment in the Primordial Spirit Secret Technique is not weak. He most likely has reached a bottleneck in the Primordial Spirit Secret Technique and wants to use our Dong Clan's Divine Jade to break through.
Don't worry about him. The Divine Jade is our Dong Clan's most precious treasure. He wants to trade it with a cultivation method. It's simply wishful thinking!
It would be better if the Celestial Master Mansion came. But trading with Chu Xiu is just causing trouble for no reason. "
In fact, the main reason why the Dong Clan refused Chu Xiu was because of Chu Xiu's identity.
If the people from the Celestial Master Mansion came and exchanged any cultivation method for the Divine Jade, the Dong Clan would gladly agree, because they could build a good relationship with the Celestial Master Mansion.
However, Chu Xiu had a grudge against the Dong Family, and the other party was a member of the Yinmo Clan. At such a sensitive and critical moment, the Dong Family had nothing better to do than to make a deal with Chu Xiu.
Therefore, the Dong Clan didn't care about this matter. Seeing that Chu Xiu didn't pester them, they thought that the matter had been settled.
Outside the Dong Clan, when Master Yuan Ji saw Chu Xiu coming out, he went up to him and asked, "Your Excellency, did you get the Divine Jade successfully?"
Chu Xiu shook his head, but Master Yuan Ji's expression was as if he had expected it.
From his point of view, Chu Xiu could just use his knife to snatch it away. It was not his style at all for him to want to ask for a letter.
However, the problem was that it was not easy to use a knife at such a sensitive time. Therefore, it was a bit embarrassing.
"Your Excellency, what are you going to do now?"
A cold light flashed in Chu Xiu's eyes as he said, "What should I do? I'm determined to get the Divine Jade. Since the Dong Clan doesn't want it, don't blame me for getting even with you. "
The Dong Clan thought that Chu Xiu didn't know that they had tried to hit him when he was down. However, how could Chu Xiu not know that?
However, there were too many forces that wanted to attack him or had already attacked him. Chu Xiu didn't have the strength and energy to take revenge on them one by one.
Originally, Chu Xiu was going to trade good goods to get the Divine Jade as soon as possible. However, the Dong Clan didn't give him any face.
Chu Xiu didn't tell Grandmaster Yuan Ji what he wanted to do. Instead, he went straight to the World Alliance's territory to look for Xie Xiao Lou. He only came to look for Xie Xiao Lou, not Emperor Chen Qing.
With Chenqing Di's strength, he could easily force the Dong Clan to hand over the Divine Jade.
However, Chu Xiu was a person who knew his limits. His relationship with Chenqing Di wasn't that close. What right did he have to ask Chenqing Di to help him?
Moreover, the Dong Clan was already a member of the righteous alliance. The Heaven Alliance was a neutral force, neither righteous nor demonic. At this time, if Chenqing Di acted, it would implicate too many people.
Everyone thought that Emperor Chen Qingdi was a boorish fellow, but in reality, he knew better than anyone else that a boorish fellow might be very powerful, but he would never be able to create the Heaven Alliance, which was the leader of the six great sects.
Therefore, Chu Xiu came to find Xie Xiao Lou to ask for a small favor. After all, he didn't have any foundation in West Chu.
Seeing Chu Xiu, Xie Xiao Lou said in surprise, "Brother Chu, how come you have the time to come to West Chu? Have you already taken control of the situation in the Northern Yan? And who is this? "
Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "I came to West Chu to find something. This is the number one fortune teller in the Northern Yan, Master Yuan Ji. He will be a member of the Martial Suppression Hall."
Saying this, Chu Xiu told Xie Xiao Lou about his intention to trade the Divine Jade. Of course, he didn't say what he wanted to do with the Divine Jade.
Xie Xiao Lou said, "Gaoling Dong Clan? Brother Chu, don't worry. The Dong Clan is nothing in the eyes of the Heaven Alliance. Since they don't know how to appreciate favors, I will let my master talk to them. They will definitely agree. "
Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "No need to trouble Senior Chen. The Gaoling Dong Clan has already joined the righteous alliance. If Senior Chen takes action, the implications will be too great. I just want to ask you for a favor. With the help of the Heaven Alliance, help me spread some news in West Chu. "
Xie Xiao Lou said in surprise, "What news?"
Chu Xiu pointed at Master Yuan Ji, who was leisurely drinking tea, and said, "A piece of news about him. Say that I, Zhang Chengzhen, and the Moon Worshipping Cult's Saintess fought for Master Yuan Ji. And the reason for fighting for Master Yuan Ji is because he divined that an ancient treasure is in the Dong Clan. As for what the treasure is, you can make it up. Is it a cultivation technique, a divine weapon, or something else? The more exaggerated the better. "
