The First Elder of the Netherworld Devil Sect, Yan Tai, looked coldly at Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian.
"Su Mo betrayed the sect and killed many of our disciples. Do you think I'll let him go?" Yan Tai said expressionlessly.
Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian frowned slightly. It seemed that it would be difficult to save Su Mo from the Netherworld Devil Sect today.
He did not want to fight with Yan Tai unless it was absolutely necessary, because there was no turning back once they fought.
After thinking for a while, Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian said in a deep voice, "Of course, if First Elder Yan is willing to let Su Mo go, I'll compensate him accordingly."
"What kind of compensation?" Yan Tai asked. The Sky-sea Pavilion was the wealthiest in the Firmament and Continent. He also wanted to know what compensation they could offer.
"10 billion Supreme Spiritual Stones, 10 Upper Royal weapons, and 1,000 Upper Royal elixirs." Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian said.
"Hiss! Hiss! "
As soon as Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian's voice fell, there was a gasp in the square.
10 billion Supreme Spiritual Stones?
Ten High Grade Emperor Artifacts?
1,000 Upper Royal elixirs?
That was a shocking amount of compensation! Only the Sky-sea Pavilion could afford to spend so much money.
Even the Emperor Xuan Palace might not be able to afford such a large sum of money. Even if they could afford it, it would cost them a lot.
Ten billion Supreme Spirit Stones were equivalent to ten trillion Upper Spirit Stones, not to mention the value of ten Upper Emperor Grade Artifacts and one thousand Upper Emperor Grade Elixirs.
It could be said that if a small power obtained such a fortune, it would only take a dozen years for it to rise rapidly and become an overlord.
This Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian had really gone all out for Su Mo!
Even Su Mo was slightly stunned by Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian's words.
He did not have a deep relationship with the Sky-sea Pavilion. The position of Supervisor of the Craftsmanship Hall was just a title. Deputy Hall Chief Hu had made an exception to give him this position because he envied his craftsmanship skills.
The Sky-sea Pavilion had gone to such great lengths for him!
He sighed in his heart. Perhaps the Sky-sea Pavilion had their own reasons for protecting him, but they had indeed saved his life.
"First Elder Yan, how is it?" Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian asked Yan Tai with a smile.
Yan Tai was also shocked by Deputy Pavilion Master Qian's words. He didn't expect the compensation to be so shocking.
Yan Tai's face darkened. From the compensation that Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian had offered, he was determined to protect Su Mo.
However, he was also tempted by such a huge sum of money. If he could obtain this compensation, it would be a great help to the development of the Netherworld Holy Sect.
"What if I don't want to?" Yan Tai asked indifferently. He was already tempted. He just wanted to fight for greater benefits.
When Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian heard this, he slowly stood up and said in a deep voice, "Since First Elder Yan is unwilling to release him, then this old man can only seek guidance from you!"
Yan Tai frowned. He wasn't afraid of Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian, but he wanted to extort more compensation. He didn't expect Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian to be so tough.
Yan Tai was deep in thought. His strength was almost on par with Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian. It would be difficult to determine the victor.
However, he didn't bring many experts from the sect this time. There wasn't even an expert above Lv 7 Martial Royal Realm.
On the Sky-sea Pavilion's side, Deputy Hall Chief Hu of the Craftsmanship Hall had reached Lv 7 Martial Royal Realm.
If the two sides fought, it would be difficult for them to gain an advantage.
Most importantly, once they fell out, there would be no compensation.
Moreover, if they fell out with the Sky-sea Pavilion now, it might affect the future of the Holy Sect.
After a while, Yan Tai came up with an idea.
"Alright, I can let Su Mo go today!"
Yan Tai suddenly changed the topic and continued, "However, 10 billion Supreme Spiritual Stones is too little. You need to add another 5 billion Supreme Spiritual Stones!"
Everyone was shocked. Yan Tai was asking for an exorbitant price!
Add another 5 billion! This was daylight robbery!
Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian's face darkened. 15 billion Supreme Spiritual Stones? Did he think that Supreme Spiritual Stones were cabbages?
"First Elder Yan, are you kidding? How dare you ask for 15 billion Supreme Spiritual Stones! "Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian sneered.
10 billion Supreme Spiritual Stones was almost Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian's limit. Although the Sky-sea Pavilion was rich, 15 billion Supreme Spiritual Stones was a little too much.
Moreover, he was only a Deputy Pavilion Leader and could not control the Sky-sea Pavilion's huge wealth at will.
"Since you don't agree, let's fight!" Yan Tai stood up as well. His eyes were full of fighting desire and his aura slowly surged.
The fight was about to start.
Everyone held their breath. Both of them were experts at Lv 9 Martial Royal Realm. Both of them were at the peak of the continent. Once they fought, the world would be shaken.
Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian's face darkened. He did not want to fight unless he had no other choice.
Yan Tai smiled. He was putting pressure on Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian. He knew that Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian would definitely compromise.
Since Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian could already take out 10 billion Supreme Spiritual Stones, it would not be too difficult to add another 5 billion.
Emperor Shi looked at all this indifferently. The wedding had been canceled and he did not want to interfere in what would happen next.
Moreover, he was happy to see the Sky-sea Pavilion and the Netherworld Devil Sect become enemies. It would be good for the Emperor Xuan Palace if the two sides fought to the death.
Right at this moment, another voice suddenly resounded.
"First Elder Yan, please stop!"
Hearing this, everyone immediately looked toward the source of the voice and were stunned.
The person who spoke this time was from the Emperor Xuan Palace. It was the 13th Elder, who was not far from Emperor Shi.
Everyone was stunned. Even the Palace Master of the Emperor Xuan Palace, Emperor Shi, did not intervene. Did the 13th Elder want to intervene?
The 13th Elder immediately stood up and saluted Emperor Shi, saying, "Palace Master, Su Mo is my disciple and also a disciple of the Emperor Xuan Palace!"
The 13th Elder's voice spread out and everyone was silent.
"Su Mo is the disciple of the 13th Elder of the Emperor Xuan Palace?"
Many people were confused. "How complicated is Su Mo's identity? Not only is he the supervisor of the Craftsmanship Hall of the Sky-sea Pavilion? He is also the disciple of the 13th Elder of the Emperor Xuan Palace? "
For a moment, both Yan Tai and Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian were stunned.
Emperor Shi was also stunned, his face filled with doubt.
Emperor Shi was familiar with Su Mo because Xi 'er had always been in love with Su Mo. He had also investigated Su Mo before.
As far as he knew, Su Mo came from a barren place in the East Continent. He had won Xi 'er's heart because he had saved her.
Emperor Shi knew about the battle between Su Mo and Shangguan Hao. It was also beyond his expectation that Su Mo could come here from the East Continent and achieve his current cultivation.
