For an elemental lord to show such a resolute attitude, other than the other party being pretentious or arrogant, was there a third possibility?
Lin was thinking about this question and hesitated for a moment. During this time, Pejunsbo might have misunderstood and said, 'Magician, are you considering the issue of entering without permission? I can responsibly tell you that there are indeed others who succeeded, but it didn't help the outcome. And those who don't listen to the warning won't be able to exchange for our friendship. Therefore, before you do anything offensive, please think carefully. '
It could almost be considered a threatening warning, and it made Lin realize that he seemed to have misjudged another matter. After thinking clearly, he asked tentatively, 'Sir, could it be that no matter what the conditions are, it can't be exchanged for a trace of the power of the origin? Do you know what kind of changes Snake King Odessa made with my help? '
'Magician, I am personally interested in the changes you speak of. But Mother Earth told me that your actions are very dangerous, and I shouldn't let you do anything. Not to mention agreeing to your request. '
Was this a fake imperial edict? Or was it really related to the collective will, and was conveying the will of that person?
Even though Pejunsbo's appearance was very similar to a human's, he still didn't have a human's expression, so it was impossible to judge his emotions, and of course, it was impossible to guess how much of what he said was true. But at the level of an elemental lord, what he said was very particular, unlike the human noble lords who could speak nonsense and be irresponsible.
So in terms of credibility, there was still some. But the deeper meaning behind this was worth exploring.
A certain thought only turned in his mind, and Lin bowed and said, 'Since this is what everyone wants, then I won't insist on such a request.'
'Magician, do you have any other requests? It wasn't easy for you to cross realms and come to my world, there are still many things worth exchanging, you don't want to go back empty-handed, do you? '
This … There was something on him that the other party was interested in, so he wanted to continue to talk about other deals after the first deal didn't go through.
But … should he continue to pretend to negotiate with the other party?
Before coming, Lin Yufen's goal was only the elemental spirits. If there were other options, it would only be the way to establish a connection with the elemental spirits.
However, the current situation was that he wasn't sure if the Earth Mother's Spirit mentioned by the Earth Elemental Creature was the same as his target. What should he do if he did? What should he do if he didn't? He had never thought that he would want anything else.
In that case, should he just casually open his mouth and deal with it? Or should he seriously negotiate a deal with the other party and bring today's trip to a successful conclusion?
But before that, there was one thing that made a certain person curious. Lin Li asked, "Sir, what do you want to trade with me?"
Pejunsbaugh made no secret of it. "I am quite pleased with the clothes you both wear." Stay. In exchange, I can send two gemstone men to serve you. "
As soon as the Ruby Elemental Overlord finished speaking, two Ruby Guards stood out from the palace walls. Moreover, they looked aggressive, as if they had come with ill intentions.
Putting aside the fact that it was impossible for him to leave behind the Black Tortoise Robe that was related to Earth, it was also impossible for Fen to take off the Four Spirits Robe. Pei Junsi's words just now contained a trap. If they blindly believed him, they would definitely be tricked to the point where they could not take care of themselves.
He only said that he would send someone to serve him. Then, who exactly did this person take orders from? Would he stab him in the back at a critical moment?
Also, how long would he send them? Half a day? One day? Or would he keep them until he needed them the most, and then turn around and leave in a gorgeous manner, catching him off guard?
In a situation where he could not confirm the loyalty of the gemstone men as a condition of the deal, Pei Junsi's proposed conditions were like trying to gain something without risking anything. He intended to take the two sets of magic silk robes that he and Fen were wearing without paying any price.
Of course, he had no choice but to decline. He did not want to run home naked. Lin Li said, "Sir, I am very sorry, but I am unable to accept the conditions of the deal you have proposed. Perhaps we should come back another day and discuss it after everyone has found other targets. Then, we will take our leave first. "
However, even if someone wanted to leave, others might not necessarily let them go. Pei Junsi gently waved the glazed scepter in his hand, and the gemstone guards in the hall stepped forward in unison, holding the weapons in their hands horizontally. The intention of intimidation was obvious.
As the former Demon King Fen, of course, he would not take such a formation seriously. Although Lin Li was not used to such a scene, but with Blink, he was not afraid of the impending crisis.
Moreover, the other party's attitude was already very obvious. If the deal did not go through, they intended to rob him. Pei Junsi opened his mouth again and said, "Mage, do you think you have a chance to …"
Without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, Lin grabbed Fen's left hand. Under the other party's astonished gaze, he flashed away. The elemental creatures that were left in place all looked at each other in dismay. The most awkward one was the Elemental Lord – the Ruby Man Pei Junsi, who had only spoken half of his ruthless words. The target of his words had disappeared into thin air, was there any need to continue what he had said?
As for the two people who had flashed away, they returned to Estali's home in the Mysterious Holy City.
It was now the middle of the night, and the moon was hanging high in the sky. Fen was the first to break the silence and said, "This matter did not go through, but you don't seem disappointed. Are you not going to continue to try to persuade the other party? Or should you simply ignore the other party's warning and directly enter the All Spirits Foundation to negotiate with the Spirit of the Earth Mother? "
Lin Li shook his head and said, "That is meaningless."
"What do you mean?"
In response to Fen's question, Lin explained, "The reason is that the Spirit of the Earth Mother may have the same collective will as the Snake King Odessa. Then what the Ruby Elemental Lord said is very likely to represent the will of the Spirit of the Earth Mother, and also the common will of all life in this Elemental World. And in other words, the other party's intention is that they do not trust us. Since there is no trust to speak of, of course, the subsequent actions will be a joke. "
"Then in the conversation just now, your tone and attitude were not at all positive, what is going on? Have you already prepared for what will happen after the failed negotiation? "
"Oh, you are saying that this matter has failed, and that it is my fault," replied Lin Li.
"Is it not?"
Lin Li laughed a few times and said, "I just think that what we are going to do, no matter how difficult or easy it is, should not be something that can be solved with a few words. So in the negotiation just now, I did not think that it would succeed, and that it was just an act of scouting. Have these thoughts been expressed in my attitude? '
"It is almost engraved on your face," replied Fen.
Lin Li laughed and said, "There is nothing I can do if I am found out."
Fen asked again, "Then what do you plan to do next?"
"Of course it is to implement Plan B," said Lin Li confidently.
