Bian Zhan's words made Lu An's expression even more dignified.
Lu An took a light breath and calmed himself down. He looked at the fifty people in front of him, and finally looked at Bian Zhan and said, "I don't quite understand what Elder Bian means. Please speak frankly."
As soon as these words came out, the fifty people frowned immediately!
They really didn't expect this kid to still be so stubborn at this time!
Bian Zhan also frowned and glared at Lu An. As one of the core elders of the Yin Yang Divine Sect, Bian Zhan knew about the existence of the Hachiko clan and also knew about Lu An's background. Not only him, but the leading elders of the Six Paths Sect and the Immortal Crane Sect also knew this. This was done deliberately by the Sect Leaders of the three sects. Otherwise, if someone who didn't know about Lu An's background came to preside over the situation, there would be trouble.
As for Lu An, it just so happened that he had seen through this.
It was impossible for these fifty people to snatch the crystal core from the Ice Fire Union. They couldn't even break the defensive array. In other words, these three sects didn't really want to do anything to the Ice Fire Union. This way, he could delay as much as possible.
Bian Zhan's face was livid, but he could only try to calm down and not let himself lose his temper. In his eyes, Lu An's strength was nothing in the sect, and he had never seen anyone from the Hachiko clan make a move. With such strength, what did this kid have to be arrogant about?
"Crystal core!" Bian Zhan suppressed his anger and shouted loudly, "The crystal core from last night!"
Lu An was startled when he heard this, but then he smiled and said, "What was I saying? So it's the crystal core! This crystal core looks very good, what's wrong? "
Seeing Lu An's appearance, the fifty people gritted their teeth even more. The elder of the Immortal Crane Sect, Hong Shun, finally couldn't help but shout at Lu An, "We worked hard to get the bones from last night. Do you think this crystal core belongs to you?"
Hearing Hong Shun's words, Lu An was obviously stunned and said in astonishment, "Why isn't it mine? I didn't steal or rob it. This crystal core flew to me on its own. Why isn't it mine? "
"You!" Hong Shun gritted his teeth and glared at Lu An!
"Besides, if it weren't for the fact that this crystal core came to me, it would have provided a huge amount of energy to the skeleton, allowing it to continue fighting with you. With your strength last night, you wouldn't have been able to deal with it at all. Any more and you would have suffered heavy casualties. " Lu An looked at the crowd with cold eyes and said coldly, "You didn't say that I saved you and prepared generous gifts to thank me. Instead, you came to ask me for a crystal core? This was the biggest joke in the world! Cruel and unscrupulous! "
Hearing Lu An's reprimand, all fifty of them were shocked. Their faces were filled with astonishment and shock. They had never thought that they would be checkmated by Lu An!
However, that was indeed the case. A Level Nine Heavenly Master would need time to arrive. The Teleportation Formation that was used to scout ahead of time was set up by a Level Eight Heavenly Master. A Level Nine Heavenly Master would not be able to pass through. Although the Sect Masters of each Sect had a nearby Transmission Array, it would take some time for them to arrive. They might not be able to hold on until the Sect Masters arrived.
Beside Lu An, Yao and Beauty Yang looked at their husband. Even they didn't expect their husband's adaptability to be so strong. This time, the Ice Fire Union had the moral high ground, making it difficult for the eight Sects to get off the tiger.
The fifty people from the three Sects looked at each other in dismay, especially the leaders of the three Sects. This was not the speech and direction they had prepared. However, it was impossible for them to give up on the crystal core. The Sect Masters had ordered them to try their best to reach an agreement!
"Union Master Lu!" Six Paths Sect's Elder Liang Duo frowned and said, "These are two different things. You helping us and taking the crystal core are two different things. You can't talk about them together! Since Union Master Lu helped us, we are naturally willing to give generous gifts, but this crystal core is our goal. How could we have gotten this crystal core without Union Master Lu? "
"Of course I didn't say it was all my own work." Lu An spread his hands and said, "But I also didn't ask for any bones, right?"
"…" Liang Duo frowned even more, gritting his teeth and saying, "We are willing to exchange bones!"
"I don't want bones." Lu An directly refused and said, "I am an alchemist, not an Artifact Refiner. Bones are useless to me. Recently, I want to refine a pill, and this crystal core happens to be useful. It's really a blessing from the heavens. "
Refining a pill?
The three immediately sucked in a breath of cold air!
Using a regenerated crystal core to refine a pill? This was simply a waste of God's gift!
The three looked at each other. Obviously, they directly believed that Lu An still didn't know the true value of this crystal core. That is, he didn't know it was a regenerated crystal core. Otherwise, he would absolutely not say such words! This was very advantageous for the negotiation, but there were also unfavorable factors. That is, what if Lu An really lost his mind and refined this crystal core into a pill?
The three were very tangled. They really didn't expect that Lu An would occupy the moral high ground, which completely disrupted their plan. They even wanted to use force to force under the circumstances where they had reason. Now, even if they had so many people behind them, they were completely useless.
"Brother Bian!" Liang Duo transmitted his voice to Bian Zhan and said, "Why don't we go back and report to the Sect Leader first. This matter is very important. There's no need to rush at this time, lest we do something wrong!"
Bian Zhan frowned. Although he really wanted to directly attack the Ice Fire Union, he finally restrained himself. He took a deep breath, looked at Lu An and said seriously, "Leader Lu, don't think about refining this crystal core into a pill. This crystal core is not only valued by us, but also by the other five sects. If you refine this crystal core, you will really have to bear the consequences. "
"I will come again." Bian Zhan raised his head, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes. He said, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, Leader Lu. Some things are good, but holding them in your hands will bring disaster. Be careful that you don't have the fortune to enjoy them!"
Hearing such a naked threat from Bian Zhan, Lu An was very calm and said, "As long as the Yin Yang Divine Sect, Six Paths Sect, and Immortal Crane Sect don't trouble me, I believe that I will be very safe."
"…"
"I didn't expect Leader Lu to be so eloquent." Bian Zhan said coldly, "See you later!"
After saying that, Bian Zhan snorted and immediately turned to fly away!
The people from the other two sects didn't stay any longer and turned to leave. Soon, they all disappeared from sight, leaving only Lu An and the other two in the sky.
Looking at the backs of the fifty people leaving, Lu An's calm face gradually became serious, and even his brows gradually frowned.
No matter what, they had passed the first stage. However, this was probably just the beginning because the people from the other five sects had not arrived.
Lu An turned to look at his two wives and said, "Let's go back."
Immediately, the three of them returned to the Ice Fire Island and sat down in the palace.
In the palace, the other women in the family had also arrived. The three sects had acted faster than they had expected, and they felt a heavy pressure.
"This reason should be able to delay them for a day." Lu An's expression became serious as he said, "If they come again, they will either prepare to snatch it by force or prepare to make a deal with me in exchange for the crystal core. They should have already thought about the bottom line of the deal, but I will open my mouth wide and give them conditions that they can't accept. This way, we should be able to delay them for a few more days. "
"What if they really want to use force?" Shuang Er asked anxiously, "We are not a match for the sects. Should we ask the Life and Death Alliance to take action?"
Lu An frowned slightly and shook his head, "No, the Life and Death Alliance can't be exposed so early. If these sects really want to snatch it by force, they should notify us in advance and threaten us. At that time, we will directly spread the news of the crystal core and let all the sects know about it! This way, the sects will keep each other in check and no one will dare to make the first move in a short period of time! "
Hearing Lu An's words, all the women nodded. Indeed, this was the best way to delay them. According to this plan, they should be able to delay until Liu Yi came out of seclusion.
However … so many people had not come up with a solution, could Liu Yi really come up with it after she came out of seclusion?
What they were most worried about now was that if this matter continued to be delayed, it would make the eight sects dislike the Ice Fire Alliance, which would be very detrimental to the future development of the Ice Fire Alliance. In the end, even if the crystal core was handed over, it would make these sects resent the Ice Fire Alliance!
