Negotiate peace, no longer be hostile to each other, and even cooperate again to jointly deal with external threats.

This was not only Shen Quan's advice to Hongyan Daozu, but also Zhou Ming's secret instruction... Zhou Ming had plans to negotiate peace with Chixing Mountain.

Zhou Ming didn't want to continue the fight... Even if his Zhenlin City had an absolute advantage and suffered minor losses, if he continued to fight, he would be quite sure that he would hit Chixing Mountain hard again.

You can even use the power of surrounding sects to destroy Chixing Mountain!

But... Zhou Ming doesn't intend to do this.

The destruction of Chixing Mountain would be of no benefit to Zhenlin City.

No matter which sect force occupies Chixing Mountain, there is no doubt that the next target that force will deal with is Zhenlin City.

For no other reason, Zhenlin City is a threat. Freaks and monsters in mortal cities will become disasters if they are not destroyed!

What's more, how can we allow others to snore on the side of the bed?

Even if someone goes to Zhenlin City to please him, he will be seen as a huge threat because of the lessons learned from Chixing Mountain.

Nowadays, Zhenlin City’s trump card, the Lingyuan Cannon, is basically impossible to keep secret, and its weaknesses will be found soon. The martial arts idiot Zhao Baige also said: If the immortal is prepared and sneaks in secretly, the Lingyuan Cannon will become a decoration. .

Immortals with higher cultivation levels in the trance stage have countless ways to massacre this city.

Therefore, although Zhenlin City is strong in terms of conventional strength, if the high-end combat power is too small, Zhenlin City will still be very weak and cannot withstand the sect's attack - if the sect changes its previous tactics.

Zhou Ming naturally knew this.

He also knows: Zhenlin City can win a hundred times, but it cannot afford to lose once!

So what should he do?

Negotiate peace.

The truce with Chixing Mountain allowed him to divert his attention from staring at Zhenlin City and concentrate on dealing with external threats that were more related to the life and death of Chixing Mountain.

When necessary, Zhenlin City will provide some assistance.

In short, we will try our best to give Zhenlin City a few years of development time.

However, no matter how good Zhou Ming's vision is, will the Chixing Mountain side return to reason and agree to negotiate peace out of consideration of their own sect's interests?

Zhou Ming did not dare to judge others by himself, and he also made the worst plan: if the peace negotiation failed, he would immediately spread the news to the surrounding sects and destroy Chixing Mountain!

"Whether the peace negotiation can work depends on whether Chen Quan can come back alive. If he doesn't come back, the peace negotiation will definitely be out of the question. We can only find a way to destroy Chixing Mountain."

Zhou Ming murmured that Shen Quan was a talent he was very optimistic about. He had carefully trained him for several years and sent him to Chixing Mountain to give him better development prospects.

Of course, it was not Zhou Ming's original intention to train him into a spy. He just arranged some "alarms" in advance for the benefit of Zhenlin City, not to steal the secrets of Chixing Mountain, but to prevent crises.

There are such alarms in each of the dozens of surrounding sects.

…

Three days later.

An air-control boat landed early more than twenty miles away from Zhenlin City.

Chen Quan is back.

Under the escort of an elder from Chixing Mountain, he returned to Zhenlin City.

Except for some skin injuries, he was basically intact and had not been hacked to pieces.

"Just go home. Have a good rest at home for a few days and take good care of your body! I will arrange everything for you in the future!"

After warming up the cold and patting Shen Quan on the shoulder, Zhou Ming asked someone to help him down to rest.

Then he invited the elder of Chixing Mountain to the city capital and had a conversation with him in your living room.

About peace talks.

"Peace?"

"Who wants to negotiate peace with you?"

The elder smiled coldly and took a deep look at Zhou Ming, who was sitting across from him. He wanted to beat this peerless genius to a pulp with one palm, but he had to admit that even this mortal man could not help him. Chixingshan suffered a big loss.

A deep loss that hurts to the bone.

The Immortal who cultivated in the Solid Core Stage of Chixing Mountain was almost broken in his hands.

Under this mortal conspiracy, Chixing Mountain entered its weakest period in history.

Such a deep hatred can only be ended by the death of one party! This mortal, however, said the word "peace" to him - of course, Taozu Hongyan's explanation to him was to ask for a peace and truce with Zhenlin City, but as an immortal, he could not say that.

Zhou Ming shook his head. He could completely understand the elder's arrogance, so he said bluntly: "Zhenlin City is insignificant. The spiritual veins of Chixing Mountain are the foundation of your sect. If other sects around him know that your sect is weak, how can they Will you seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?"

"Are you threatening us?"

The elder glared at him with fierce eyes and said with an angry look: "The battle a few days ago was witnessed by countless people. Even if you don't spread it everywhere, it will be known to everyone in the near future. Do you think your threats are effective? What?"

"It really doesn't do much."

Zhou Ming nodded: "Other sects are not fools. They will find out that there is a situation in Chixing Mountain within half a year at most, and then take action... Even if Zhenlin City sends people to spread the news, it will only be a few months in advance, and the final news will still be It leaked, so..."

Zhou Ming turned to look at him: "You need our help."

The elder's face changed, and he looked very unnatural. He turned his head and sneered: "What a joke, I, Chixing Mountain, need help from you and other mortals? It's the most ridiculous thing in the world!"

Of course, he admitted in his heart that before leaving, Daozu Hongyan said this to him and told him: It is best to try and buy a batch of weapons from Zhenlin City.

For example, let's see if we can get the thick tube-shaped weapon that can kill immortals.

If it is possible, it means that Zhenlin City can cooperate; if not, it means that Zhenlin City is unreliable and cannot cooperate.

When Chixing Mountain has passed the crisis and its strength has recovered, then go back and destroy Zhenlin City!

Just asking for help from mortals... This elder really can't open his mouth or speak out about this kind of thing... That would be too shameful.

Zhou Ming saw the confusion on his face, smiled slightly, and said something in his ear, which made the elder's eyes light up and he nodded repeatedly.

A few hours later, an Armistice Agreement acceptable to both sides was successfully signed.

The armistice agreement is valid for three years and has three core provisions:

1. Zhenlin City will sell 3,000 sniper crossbows (enhanced version), 30,000 repeating crossbows (enhanced version) to Chixing Mountain, as well as tens of millions of crossbow arrows. The total selling price is 80 million spiritual coins.

2. Once Chixing Mountain is attacked by surrounding sects, Zhenlin City will send troops to support it, but it can only establish a defense line under Chixing Mountain and is not allowed to go up the mountain.

3. Zhenlin City shall not expand aggressively or annex other cities.

There are also clauses such as "resuming trade exchanges" and "sending representatives to each other to establish communication channels".

These terms, including the three core ones, can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye: this is a perfunctory agreement.

Coupled with the three-year validity period, both parties knew very well: after three years, the agreement will be torn up.

The purpose of the Chixingshan elders is to hold Zhenlin City back, prevent it from acting rashly, and prevent it from stabbing someone in the back!

He thought to himself: "Three years later, when the two ancestors come out of seclusion... Zhenlin City, hum!"

Zhou Ming's goal has been achieved. Three years, and three more years to Zhenlin City, this city will surprise everyone!

Even the sect is not afraid!

The state is very bad. Let’s just read this chapter.
