"Jiang Wang, what do you mean by this?" Li Yu frowned slightly upon seeing this.
"Heh, do you think you can fool my father?" Jiang Wang sneered.
"Your father?" Upon hearing this
Li Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he said, "Could it be that he has discovered the whereabouts of my demon race?"
“Indeed, five days ago, one of the elders of my Jiang clan used a secret method to glimpse demonic light emerging from the depths of the Demon Abyss, and also discovered a cave. Clearly, a Demon King is about to be born within this Demon Abyss,” Jiang Wang said thoughtfully.
"So that's how it is." Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Although this Demon Abyss contains many demonic crystals, it is also fraught with danger," Jiang Wang said. "If one does not have sufficient combat power, entering the Demon Abyss rashly is almost certain to result in death."
“Of course I know that,” Li Yu nodded.
"Therefore, the people of my Jiang clan have been intensifying their training during this period in order to improve their strength," Jiang Wang continued.
“The Demon King within the Demon Abyss has not yet been born. Perhaps your Li family can take this opportunity to strengthen your power.” Jiang Wang looked at Li Yu.
“Hehe, Brother Jiang is absolutely right. Not only my Li family, but other forces are also accumulating strength, wanting to compete for it.” Li Yu nodded and said, “As long as the Demon King in this Demon Abyss is born, we will have a chance to compete for it.”
"That would be perfect," Jiang Wang said with a smile.
"However, Brother Jiang, you've arrived too late. The magic crystals have already been snapped up by someone else," Li Yu said with a smile.
"Oh!" Upon hearing this, Jiang Wang frowned slightly.
"Hehe, when my Li family learned of the strange phenomena in the Demon Abyss, we also sent people to compete for the Demon Crystals," Li Yu said.
"I have already had eight magic crystals taken away, and the remaining three have been taken by other forces."
"In this way, the magic crystal becomes ownerless, and the Jiang family can take it for themselves." Li Yu's lips curled into a wicked smile.
"Has this magic crystal been taken by other forces now?" Upon hearing this, Jiang Wang frowned.
“Yes!” Li Yu nodded. “Brother Jiang, don’t worry, I will definitely leave you a few magic crystals. After all, we’ve known each other for a while.”
"Alright!" Hearing this, Jiang Wang had no choice but to nod and say, "I hope you will keep your promise."
"Hehe, of course." Li Yu nodded and said, "However, if the Jiang family wants to form an alliance with us, they can offer a piece of blood jade as a reward. Only then can we have a win-win situation." He smiled.
After a pause, he said, "However, I think the Jiang family will understand how to choose."
"Blood Jade?" Jiang Wang frowned.
“That’s right. One hundred magic crystals for one piece of blood jade. This deal is worth your Jiang family’s serious consideration,” Li Yu said.
"One hundred magic crystals for one piece of blood jade?" Jiang Wang frowned upon hearing this.
Ordinary magic crystals are crystals containing pure spiritual essence.
Once absorbed, it can temper the body and strengthen the soul.
However, blood jade is even more special.
This is a crystal formed from blood.
This blood jade contains a special power that can nourish the flesh and blood of martial artists.
If used to refine talismanic pills, it can add runes.
This is worth much more than ordinary magic crystals.
Li Yu's demand for a piece of blood jade from the Jiang family was an outrageous request!
Not only Jiang Wang, but all of his followers changed their expressions.
"Young Master Jiang, whatever you do, don't negotiate with this guy, or we'll definitely suffer the consequences."
"That's right, these demons are wolves in sheep's clothing, each one of them is treacherous and cunning. We must remember not to trust them."
Immediately, Jiang Wang's followers spoke up one after another, trying to dissuade him.
"Hehe, if your Jiang family is unwilling, I won't force you. Anyway, I don't care about these magic crystals. If you want magic crystals, my Li family is not short of them. If you want them, take them." Li Yu shrugged and smiled, saying, "However, this blood jade is not so easy to get."
"If the Jiang family wants to obtain the Blood Jade, then they must help the Li family control this forbidden area, otherwise..." As he said this, his expression gradually turned cold.
"Are you threatening us?" Jiang Wang asked, his eyes flashing.
"Hehe, I, Li Yu, am just stating a fact," Li Yu said with a sigh.
"This time, your Jiang family is doomed to defeat!"
"The Jiang family's foundation is too weak; how can they possibly contend with the Li family?"
"Unless your Jiang family brings out its ancestor." Li Yu stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at everyone with an air of absolute confidence.
Upon hearing this, the young man from the Jiang family grew even more gloomy.
"Li Yu, you've gone too far!" one of the young men couldn't help but shout angrily.
"Nephew Jiang Wangxian, is this the junior you've trained?" Upon seeing this, Li Yu smiled coldly.
“Sigh.” Jiang Wang shook his head and said, “In recent years, my Jiang clan has declined. What qualifications do I, Jiang Wang, have to teach them?” His eyes were full of bitterness. In this great era, all the major clans are rising. Who would be willing to remain in obscurity?
The Jiang clan was in decline and could barely protect itself, let alone its own people.
"Well done, Jiang Wang! You truly are a formidable figure. If your Jiang clan can pledge allegiance to my Li clan, then your Jiang clan will no longer fear the demon race," Li Yu declared loudly.
"To submit to the Li family?" Jiang Wang shook his head slightly. His eyes flashed, and he said, "Even if I, Jiang Wang, am no match for the demons, even if my Jiang family is destroyed, I will not submit to your Li family."
After saying that, he turned and left.
"Hmph! You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences. You're truly incorrigible. Since you refuse to cooperate, then your Jiang family will disappear from this day forward." Watching Jiang Wang leave, Li Yu revealed a ferocious smile.
"This Jiang Wang is actually a man; he has some backbone," the people around Li Yu murmured after Jiang Wang left.
"Hehe, Li Yu dared to come to the Jiang family this time, obviously he was prepared. Now that they have achieved their goal, the Jiang family will definitely cease to exist. As for the Jiang family's foundation, he didn't care at all, because the Li family has divine weapons that can crush the Jiang family." Another man next to him grinned. His name was Li Yunyang.
"Haha, now that the Jiang clan is weakened, it's only a matter of time before the Li clan dominates the Northern Sea!"
"If the Jiang clan is not destroyed, how can we rule this sea area?"
"Hehe, not bad. As long as the Jiang clan survives, there are still many remnants of the demon race. They can bring us a continuous stream of demon crystals."
...
Immediately, the cultivators from all sides were extremely excited, and their breathing became slightly rapid.
This concerns their future!
Jiang Wang turned and left, his expression shifting between anger and uncertainty.
At that moment, he suddenly realized that he had underestimated Li Yu's methods.
"Is this Li family really that powerful?" Jiang Wang murmured, his eyes narrowing.
...
The atmosphere in the council chamber of the Jiang family was very serious.
"Jiang Wang, what should we do?" the elder of the Jiang clan asked.
