Legend has it that this Spirit King also has a strange trait, almost just like me: the more smiling he looks, the more troublesome the matter you want him to handle becomes.
"No, no, please, Your Majesty, go first." Seeing the other party's change in attitude and the courteous treatment, Qianfo also suppressed his sharp edge. Only after Your Majesty was seated did he follow and sit down in the lower seat. "To be honest, I've come here to ask Your Majesty for a favor. Boss Tong mentioned the tools, Your Majesty..."
"It's all about mutual benefit, right? The tools are easy to discuss, but let's not mince words. I also have a request." The Spirit King said, raising his eyes to look directly at the Demon King. "Boss Tong has already told me the general situation. You used the Holy Maiden's blood and bones to create the All-Purpose Everlasting Ointment. There has to be a way to divide it. How about this, I'll concede a little: I'll give you seven parts, you three."
"What? That won't do. It should be seven parts for me and three parts for you," the Demon King decisively refused, and as he slowly stood up, a strange smile appeared on his face.
"If that's the case, Demon King, please leave, hehe!" Wen Long curled his lips into a sinister smile, sitting motionless in the seat of honor. "I'll take my leave."
"Isn't that a bit unfair, Spirit King?" Thousand Buddha squinted his eyes, the corners of his mouth curving upwards, but he didn't leave. Instead, he sat down again.
The air seemed to freeze instantly as the Thousand Buddhas struggled to suppress the black mist rising from their bodies until it disappeared.
Thousand Buddhas knew in their hearts that they had entered someone else's territory. Without the guidance of the Spirit King, if they rashly turned back, they would most likely fall off the cliff below the floating rocks. Then, the Spirit King would claim to the world that the Demon King had trespassed without cause, plotting something sinister, which was why he had fallen off the Blood Cliff…
A small act of impatience can ruin a great plan. Thousand Buddhas, you're here to discuss cooperation, so you should lower your stance. Your forced composure just now was merely a fluke, a way to save face.
Thinking about his grand ambition to dominate the world, he had suffered repeated setbacks in the past. Now, despite his old injuries, he was putting on a brave face in order to intimidate the Spirit King and force him to make concessions so that he could gain the greatest benefit. In truth, although he hadn't achieved his original 40/60 split, the current situation was still quite good.
What harm is there in bowing my head for now? Everything is still uncertain. As the saying goes, those who achieve great things don't concern themselves with trifles. What does suffering a little grievance matter now? As long as I have enough patience, once I have the Everlasting Ointment, why should I need to take you, the Spirit King, seriously?
At that time, I fear that both the spirit and demon realms will be his domain. Thinking of this, the Demon King's mind instantly calmed down.
“King Ling, well, we’re cooperating, aren’t we?” Thousand Buddha blinked and spread his hands. “Since it’s a cooperation, we should have a proper discussion beforehand, and then make arrangements to ensure that things go smoothly and that everyone benefits. Wouldn’t that be a very meaningful thing?”
"Hehe! It seems the Demon King has come to his senses." Wen Long nodded with a half-smile. "What you said makes sense, but I think it's more reasonable for me to have 70% and you to have 30%. If the Demon King wants to bargain further, I don't mind if I have 80% and you to have 20%."
"Hahaha!" After saying this, King Ling threw his head back and laughed loudly.
Oh no! This guy's got murderous intent! His smile actually changed Tianfo's expression. It seems that if he doesn't hold back now, even a "third" chance might be in jeopardy.
“Alright! As you wish, King Ling. Besides, I’m never one to haggle.” Thousand Buddha readily agreed, a fleeting smile playing on his right corner of his mouth.
