Evil Master and Disciple

Chapter 1437 List

Master Yunyi felt that he had spent his whole life training as an eagle, only to have his eyes pecked by Fairy Ziyin, a little sparrow.

He looked at Fairy Ziyin with icy eyes, while Fairy Ziyin remained smiling.

These people in positions of power are all incredibly shameless.

For someone of Yunyi's status, drinking only the wine he brought himself was already quite beneath him.

For the dignified Palace Master of the Goddess Palace to use Ye Feng, a junior, as a bargaining chip at this moment is even more beneath her dignity.

Master Yunyi certainly wouldn't waste his breath trying to reason with Fairy Ziyin.

Reasoning and obeying the law are only for the underprivileged and vulnerable groups.

When faced with interests, it's laughable to reason with, talk about morality, or discuss the law with those in power who hold the power of life and death.

Master Yunyi certainly didn't want to see Lingyin sleep with Ye Feng.

So he could only suppress his anger and sit down again.

“Fairy Ziyin, there’s no need to waste your breath on other matters. Just tell me your request.”

"The Master is indeed straightforward. Actually, I don't have any demands. I just hope that the Master will be lenient and make things easier for us in terms of our cooperation. If we follow the list the Master has provided, the foundation of our Holy Church, which has lasted for thousands of years, will be destroyed."

"Here is the list we sect leaders have discussed. It represents the maximum price our Holy Sect can pay. Please take a look, Master."

With a flick of her finger, Fairy Ziyin sent two pieces of paper flying slowly toward Venerable Yunyi.

Master Yunyi did not reach out to take them, but instead controlled the two pieces of paper to fall onto the low table in front of him.

The two sheets of paper were covered with writing, which described what the Demonic Sect would offer in exchange for the list held by Master Yunyi.

The first condition is that the Demonic Cult withdraws the thirteen sects south of Kunlun Mountain and guarantees that its influence will never approach the area within three hundred miles south of Kunlun Mountain.

This area originally covered a distance of a thousand miles, but sixty-four sects withdrew.

Of course, Master Yunyi also knew that this first condition was somewhat unreasonable.

The main area of ​​activity for the Demonic Cult was in the Western Regions and the western and southwestern parts of the Kunlun Mountains.

Although those places are vast, they have very few people and little spiritual energy, so there are not many places suitable for establishing a sect, unlike the Central Plains, which is full of famous mountains and rivers, and can be used to establish a sect anywhere.

Sending the Demonic Cult thousands of miles away from Kunlun Mountain would be tantamount to breaking one of its arms, which the Demonic Cult would naturally not agree to.

Moreover, even if the Demonic Sect agrees, it won't mean much to the Cloud Sea Sect.

Today, the Demonic Cult can withdraw its forces thousands of miles away from Kunlun Mountain, but tomorrow it can move them back.

The Kunlun Sect had long been destroyed, and the Tianyun Mountains were thousands of miles away from the Kunlun Mountains, making it impossible for them to reach or protect the vast Kunlun Mountains.

Therefore, Master Yunyi never expected that the various sects of the Demonic Cult could truly stay a thousand miles away from Kunlun Mountain.

Now, the Demonic Cult has compressed its territory to a range of 300 miles south of Kunlun Mountain. Not only have they withdrawn thirteen Demonic Cult sects from the south, but they have also promised never to extend their reach into this area again.

Master Yunyi was quite surprised by this.

Because he never expected that the Demonic Sect would actually make a compromise on the Kunlun Mountains side.

The Tianyun Mountains are located on the southwestern border of the Divine Continent, with the Kunlun Mountains to the west.

The Kunlun Mountains stretch from north to south, connecting with the Tianshan Mountains to the north, forming a natural barrier in western Central China.

There used to be a great righteous sect in the Kunlun Mountains called the Kunlun Immortal Sect. Unfortunately, it was too close to the demonic forces. The demonic sect coveted the prosperous Central Plains, and every time the demonic sect launched a major invasion of the Central Plains, the Kunlun Immortal Sect was the first to be hit.

After several major battles, the Kunlun Immortal Sect ceased to exist.

Over the years, the righteous and the demonic have reached a tacit understanding that Kunlun Mountain will serve as a buffer zone for both sides.

Nowadays, only a few righteous sects remain in the northern region near the Tianshan Mountains; most other areas have lost their righteous sects.

This is actually very unfriendly to the Yunhai Sect.

Previously, the Kunlun Immortal Sect held the line in the west, but now that the Kunlun Immortal Sect has been destroyed, the Yunhai Sect will be in danger if the Demonic Sect makes any move, becoming the first to bear the brunt.

Because the Yunhai Sect was not particularly strong in the past, even though successive sect leaders wanted to extend their influence to Kunlun Mountain, they were powerless to do so. As a result, the Demonic Sect has been constantly encroaching on the border areas of Kunlun Mountain for the past thousand years, making the Yunhai Sect never feel at ease.

In the last hundred years or so, the Yunhai Sect has grown stronger and stronger. Master Yunyi wanted to eliminate the sects that the Demonic Sect had planted in the southern part of Kunlun Mountain. Unfortunately, the Demonic Sect had been operating there for many years, and Master Yunyi had not had the opportunity to take action.

This time, the Demonic Sect's voluntary retreat of 300 li is a great boon for the Cloud Sea Sect.

The Demonic Sect did not delete this clause, but only reduced the scope of the retreat, which made Yun Yi Shangren overjoyed, but he did not show it on his face.

Instead, he sneered, "Is this the sincerity of your Demonic Sect? My demand was for your Demonic Sect to withdraw from Kunlun Mountain by a thousand miles, but now you've only withdrawn by three hundred miles. Is this how you bargain?"

Fairy Ziyin slowly said, "Regarding the first point, withdrawing three hundred miles is already our bottom line. Please take a look at the rest of the points, Master."

After that, there wasn't anything particularly special. It was mostly about cultivation resources and things like how demonic sect disciples shouldn't attack Yunhai Sect disciples or cultivators from sects affiliated with Yunhai Sect without cause when they encountered them in the mortal world.

Cultivation resources are very common and can be roughly divided into four types.

The first type is spirit crystal.

The Demonic Sect possesses numerous spirit stone mines.

This is thanks to the geographical location of the Demonic Cult.

Because their area of ​​activity was in the borderlands, in order to develop their sect, the Demonic Sect had long since extended its reach to the Ten Thousand Mountains in the southern border region.

The area spanning two to three thousand miles in the western border region of the Ten Thousand Mountains is rich in high-quality spirit stone veins.

Nowadays, these spirit stone mines are almost all controlled by the major sects of the Demonic Cult, and every year the Demonic Cult extracts countless spirit crystals and spirit stones from the western part of the Southern Frontier.

Master Yunyi knew that the Demonic Sect had a lot of spirit stones, so he made an outrageous demand. The condition that Master Yunyi had previously set was five million catties of amethyst spirit stones.

Yes, that's right, it's five million catties, not five million pieces, and it's the highest grade amethyst spirit stone.

A piece of amethyst that is normally in circulation weighs only about one or two ounces.

One jin is sixteen liang.

Five million catties of amethyst spirit stones correspond to eighty million amethyst crystals.

That's an astronomical sum.

The Demonic Sect would naturally not agree to this.

Therefore, the Demonic Sect yielded 500,000 jin of amethyst, which is equivalent to 8 million amethyst crystals.

The Yunhai Sect has 8,000 inner disciples and more than 30,000 outer disciples. The amount of spirit stones they consume each year, if converted to amethyst crystals, is approximately 600,000.

The Demonic Sect gave the Cloud Sea Sect eight million amethyst crystals in one go, enough for the Cloud Sea Sect to develop for more than ten years.
