Min Ao raised his eyebrows when he saw Su Mo's avatar looking at Bai Yan and the smile on his face.
He understood the meaning behind Su Mo's gaze.
However, he was puzzled as he did not completely believe it.
"Brother Bai, you seem to be in a good mood to look at Su Mo's statue!" Min Ao cupped his fists together and said with a smile.
"Of course!"
Su Mo nodded slightly. He looked at his own statue, which was like a specimen that had become the object of the Pavilion Masters' attention. He had mixed feelings.
Perhaps the Soul Tribe's ambition was not wrong. It was their lofty ideal and it was their eternal goal. It was great and noble.
However, it was unacceptable to Su Mo, the Primeval World, and the other worlds.
Just as Min Ao and Su Mo were talking, another Pavilion Master entered the hall.
This person was tall and had a rough appearance.
When he walked into the hall, he saw Su Mo and was instantly stunned.
With that, he strode toward Su Mo.
"Brother Bai Yan, he is from the Di Family!" Ying Rong, who had been beside Su Mo, reminded him.
Su Mo nodded silently when he heard it.
Is the Di Family looking for trouble again?
However, ever since he had defeated Di Hong at the Heaven Soul Ceremony and taken him in as a servant, no one from the Di Family had come to find trouble with him.
After all, he was now a Pavilion Master of Sky Soul Pavilion and was valued by Pavilion Master Wu Yi. The Di Family would not easily find trouble with him.
"Are you Bai Yan?"
The rough youth from the Soul Tribe came before Su Mo and cupped his fists together. He asked in a cold but polite manner.
"Yes!" Su Mo nodded.
"I am Di Wu. I happened to meet Brother Bai here today. May I have a word with you?" The rough youth asked.
"Please!" Su Mo nodded slightly. Since the other party was polite, he would not argue with him.
With that, Su Mo and Di Wu left the Myriad Worlds Hall.
Ying Rong and Min Ao did not follow them. Although Ying Rong wanted to suck up to Su Mo, he did not want to offend anyone.
As for Min Ao, he was from the Dim Light Sacred Palace and he naturally would not be too close to Su Mo.
Su Mo and Di Wu came to a secluded place and stopped.
"What's the matter, Brother Di? Speak your mind!" Su Mo asked. In fact, he had already guessed the man's intention.
"Bai Yan, the reason I came here this time is to hope that you will let Di Hong go!" Di Wu went straight to the point.
In the last Heavenly Soul ceremony, Di Hong suppressed his cultivation and was defeated by Bai Yan. He had to be a slave for ten years.
This matter had caused the Di Family to lose all face. The Di Family's pavilion masters could not even raise their heads in the Soul Pavilion.
However, it also enraged the clan. After all, the reason why Di Hong attacked Bai Yan during the Heavenly Soul Ceremony was because he was ordered by the clan's elder, Di Hou, to avenge the death of Di Fen.
However, not only did he fail to avenge Di Hong, he even became Bai Yan's slave.
The entire Di Family was in an uproar.
The Di Family was divided into two factions.
One faction demanded that Bai Yan be killed forcefully to avenge the family's humiliation; the other faction demanded that Bai Yan negotiate for peace.
Currently, the majority of the Di Family wanted to kill Bai Yan, while the minority wanted to negotiate with him.
However, no matter which faction it was, no one wanted to offend Pavilion Master Wu Yi.
After all, Pavilion Master Wu Yi represented the Eighth Soul Pavilion. Killing a Sky Soul Pavilion disciple of the Soul Pavilion would definitely offend Pavilion Master Wu Yi.
As such, after the Di Family debated for a long time, Di Wu came. He was ordered by the clan to negotiate with Bai Yan.
If Bai Yan could be sensible and release Di Hong and apologize, the Di Family was willing to take a step back.
"Release Di Hong?"
Hearing this, Su Mo's face darkened. He had already guessed Di Hong's intention.
Naturally, he could release Di Hong as long as the Di Family showed their sincerity, even if it was only on the surface.
After all, to Su Mo, his ultimate goal was to drive a wedge between the three tribes of the Soul Tribe and even defeat the entire Soul Tribe.
At the current stage, when his strength was not enough, there was no need for him to go against the powerful Di Family.
After a while, Su Mo said, "It is not impossible to release Di Hong. However, he is willing to be my slave. He has lost the bet!"
Su Mo's words were very clear. He could release Di Hong, but the Di Family had to show their sincerity.
If he were to release Di Hong at that time, the other party would immediately turn their backs on him.
"Bai Yan, it's not like you don't know the strength of my Di Clan. Going against my Di Clan will only bring harm to you and the Bai Clan!" Di Wu said solemnly.
"Eh?"
When Su Mo heard this, he instantly raised his eyebrows. He had originally thought that Di Wu would sincerely negotiate with him. He did not expect that Di Wu would start to threaten him!
That's right!
Although Di Wu's words were not sharp, the meaning behind his words was indeed a warning.
He was warning Su Mo to be sensible and not go against the Di Family. If not, both he and the Bai Family would be at a disadvantage.
"Are you threatening me?" Su Mo's face turned cold. Although he did not want to go against the Di Family, he was not someone who would be easily threatened.
"Bai Yan, you've misunderstood. I'm not threatening you. I'm just informing you of the situation!"
Di Wu shook his head and continued, "Di Hong is of no use to you. If you want a servant, my Di Clan can give you countless of them. There's no need for you to make an enemy of my Di Clan just to make Di Hong your servant. My Di Clan's strength far surpasses your Bai Clan's. The number of Di Clan's pavilions and achievements in the Soul Pavilion also far surpass your Bai Clan!"
"Haha!" Su Mo laughed upon hearing this. It was a blatant threat!
However, was he afraid?
He was not the real Bai Yan. He would not care even if the Bai Family was exterminated.
"Bai Yan, there are a few disciples of the Bai Family in the Soul Pavilion. As far as I know, they have never been in contact with you, right?"
Di Wu chuckled and continued, "Even though you have become a disciple of the Sky Soul Pavilion, no one from the Bai Family has come to congratulate you. Don't you understand? Because you have offended the Di Family, they are not willing to associate with you! "
"Are you done?" Su Mo looked at Di Wu and asked coldly.
"What do you mean?" Di Wu frowned slightly.
"If you want me to release Di Hong, then show me your sincerity until I'm satisfied!" Su Mo said, turned around and strode away.
"Damn it! You overestimate yourself! "Seeing Su Mo leave, Di Wu's expression changed and he could not help but shout angrily.
Today, he had patiently come to negotiate with Bai Yan. He had never thought that Bai Yan would be so arrogant.
Thinking of Bai Yan's arrogance, the Di Family should have listened to the opinions of the majority and found an opportunity to kill Bai Yan.
"You will release him. Soon, you will kneel in front of the Di Family and release Di Hong!" Di Wu muttered to himself and turned to leave.
