Li Changting said this, trying his best to make his smile more sincere. Only he knew how much grievance was contained in this smile.
However, when he thought about how he had finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel, and was about to break the barrier between the East and West continents and receive huge rewards from the sect, Li Changting felt that this little grievance was nothing.
After all, Senior Xiang Sheng is in charge of the Dongzhou territory, and the dangers he faces are not even as great as when he was exploring the Weird Fog Sea.
After comforting himself for a while, the expression on Li Changting's face became much more genuine.
After a moment, the three of them sat down.
Jiang Yi flicked his sleeves, and the table flashed with light, and various snacks appeared.
He pointed to the wine pot and smiled modestly: "This is the Hundred Flowers Wine specially made in my valley. Please, Fellow Daoist Li."
Li Changting didn't dare to neglect it. He quickly picked up the wine glass and took a small sip. Then his eyes lit up slightly and he nodded, "It's sweet and refreshing, with the fragrance of hundreds of flowers. It's not an exaggeration to call it a fairy wine."
Jiang Yi heard the compliment in his words and smiled softly, "As long as Fellow Daoist Li likes it, I'm glad. This wine isn't intoxicating, so you might as well drink more."
As he spoke, Jiang Yi took out a whole jar of unopened Hundred Flowers Wine.
so much? !
Li Changting immediately stood up to decline, but Jiang Yi didn't even look at him. He pushed the wine jar in front of Xiang Sheng and said:
"I heard that Fellow Daoist Wang is addicted to drinking. Why don't you bring back a jar and let him try it?"
Li Changting was stunned when he heard this. His butt stopped in mid-air and he dug his toes into the ground in embarrassment. He didn't know whether to sit or not.
So he had misunderstood, and what Jiang Yi had just said, "drink more", was really just a polite remark?
Isn't this bullying an honest person?!
Xiang Sheng was quite surprised when Jiang Yi suddenly sent him some wine.
However, seeing Li Changting's reaction, she thought about it for a moment and understood Jiang Yi's intention. She didn't hesitate and simply waved her sleeves to take away the wine jar.
Jiang Yi saw Xiang Sheng withdraw, and his expression relaxed slightly. Then, as if he had just seen Li Changting's actions, he turned around and asked in confusion, "Where are you going, Fellow Daoist Li?"
"No, no."
Li Changting coughed lightly, his expression normal as he said, "It's just that this stool is uncomfortable to sit on, so I'm just moving it."
Jiang Yi laughed secretly in his heart, but did not show it on the surface. He said in coordination with Li Changting, "I see. Then I will order someone to change it immediately."
Li Changting quickly refused: "It's okay, it's just a small matter, no need to bother."
Jiang Yi let it go and looked at the embarrassment that was barely concealed on Li Changting's face, but he had other thoughts in his mind.
He deliberately used words to cause Li Changting to misunderstand and then embarrass him. It seemed like bullying, but in fact it was a helpless act.
Xiang Sheng brought Li Changting here, which meant that she had recognized Li Changting and the sect behind him. As long as she nodded, the passage between the east and west continents could be opened immediately.
However, the cultivation heritage of Dongzhou has declined, and its overall strength is far inferior to that of Xizhou.
In the world of cultivation, the law of the jungle prevails, and the big fish eat the small fish. This is an eternal truth. Once these people migrate west, they will most likely be divided up by the larger clans.
In the past few years, he has been practicing in seclusion, and he has also sensed that the spiritual energy in Dongzhou is indeed getting lower and lower every year as Xiang Sheng said, and migrating westward is the general trend.
Jiang Yi did not ask for the sect to be intact, but only hoped that during the westward migration, the cultivators of Dongzhou could have a certain degree of freedom, rather than being divided and plundered by the sects of Xizhou like objects.
In this case, the dominant position in negotiations becomes extremely important.
He had learned about the Pantheon's attack last night through Xiang Sheng's communication jade slip.
He practiced hard for three years and his cultivation level recovered to the Nascent Soul stage, but it was obviously not enough in front of Li Changting, who was in the late Spirit Transformation stage and could kill him with one sword.
The only thing he can do is to take advantage of the situation.
Taking advantage of Xiang Sheng's power, he had an equal dialogue with Li Changting.
He knew that this little trick could not be hidden from Xiang Sheng's eyes, and he did not want to hide it.
As for whether Li Changting could see it or not, he didn't care. Xiang Sheng's attitude was already clear, and the subsequent negotiations would naturally be much smoother.
Next, Jiang Yi and Li Changting started chatting, and with just a few words, they cleared away the awkward atmosphere in the hall.
After three rounds of drinking, Jiang Yi put down his glass, smiled slightly, and suddenly got back to business: "Wine is like a person. Fellow Daoist Li speaks humbly and politely. I believe that the elders of your sect are also gentlemen. I agree with the idea of ​​connecting the two continents."
This sentence came too suddenly. Li Changting heard it suddenly and couldn't hide his surprise on his face: "Are you serious?"
"Of course it's true."
Jiang Yi's smile faded slightly. "However, I believe that Fellow Daoist Li has already gained a general understanding of the situation in the Dongzhou cultivation world over the past few years. I would like to hear your specific opinions."
Li Changting's eyes narrowed slightly as he asked, "Fellow Daoist Jiang, are you afraid that our Xizhou Sect will forcibly annex our Dongzhou Sect?"
While asking the question, Li Changting glanced at Xiang Sheng and saw that she seemed to be standing by and watching, and he was undecided.
There is one thing that Jiang Yi saw very accurately.
The westward migration plan given to him by the sect's top leaders was indeed an act of plunder and annexation under the guise of being a savior.
However, ever since he met Xiang Sheng on the strange foggy sea, he knew in his heart that the westward migration plan was definitely going to fail.
For a monk, having a backer or not is two completely different things.
Senior Xiang Sheng is a casual cultivator and doesn't seem to want to interfere in the sect's affairs, but he seems to have a close relationship with Jiang Yi. Moreover, she is from Dongzhou, and if something is done too harshly, it will inevitably make her feel uncomfortable.
It is unwise to fight with a cultivator who is at the fusion stage or even higher for some seeds that have not yet grown.
Thinking of this, Li Changting made up his mind and nodded, "Fellow Daoist Jiang's concerns are not unreasonable. The three sects of Xizhou are not monolithic. Some things are beyond the power of a mere disciple like me to decide."
