Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

"This is much quicker than stealing!"

Xiao Yi looked at Li Tianchao with a serious expression.

Li Tianchao was furious, smoke practically coming out of his seven orifices.

His chest was filled with boiling anger, and he nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood.

With a dark face, he gritted his teeth and said, "The conditions you mentioned are absolutely impossible for me to agree to..."

How can I agree to this?

Once I agree to these compensations,

By then, all the wealth that the Supreme Sect has accumulated over countless years will be gone, and everyone in the sect will have to tighten their belts to get by.

Why can the Supreme Sect be one of the four major powers?

Besides having the peak combat power of the Saint King Realm,

The more important thing is the resources!

Why does everyone join a sect, if not for resources?

Even when Xiao Yi joined the Heavenly Tao Pavilion initially, it was to obtain enough resources to quickly recover his own cultivation.

If he made such compensations, depleting all his assets, everyone would know the Supreme Sect is dirt poor, with no resources to gain.

Who would want to join their Supreme Sect then?

Regarding Li Tianchao's choice, Xiao Yi wasn't surprised at all. He just looked lightly at the Heavenly Tao Pavilion Master beside him and said, "Pavilion Master, I think he hasn't been beaten enough. Why don't you negotiate with him some more?"

Pavilion Master of Heavenly Tao Pavilion: "..."

Li Tianchao: "..."

This is too much bullying!

Is this how you negotiate?

You can't just drop a bombshell when things don't go your way, can you?

Li Tianchao's eye twitched hard, glancing cautiously at the Heavenly Tao Pavilion Master, he softened his tone and said, "It's not that I don't want to compensate, but the Supreme Sect simply can't provide these..."

Xiao Yi glanced at the Heavenly Tao Pavilion Master.

The Heavenly Tao Pavilion Master imperceptibly nodded.

Even though he didn't know exactly how much the Supreme Sect had, the compensations Xiao Yi just mentioned would break even the oldest Heavenly Tao Pavilion.

To ask Li Tianchao for such compensation seems like a dim hope.

Xiao Yi's eyes shifted slightly.

As he was considering lowering the claims,

Suddenly...

Xiao Yi's eyes lit up as he noticed the hidden figures of the God Slayer Sect and Feather Transformation Sect masters in the distance. He immediately recognized the cloaked figure as Tu Sen.

Beside Tu Sen stood two others, with an aura even stronger than his.

Xiao Yi's lips curled into a slight smile.

In the void.

The cloaked figures of Tu Sen and others noticed Xiao Yi's gaze, and their expressions suddenly changed. The Feather Transformation Sect Master even blurted out, "Not good, this kid has his eyes on us..."

"Quick, let's go!"

The God Slayer Sect Master also wore a dark expression.

Ever since the Heavenly Tao Pavilion Master revealed his magnificent half-step Saint Emperor power, they crushed any thoughts of helping the Supreme Sect.

They stayed just to see the final fate of the Supreme Sect.

Would the Heavenly Tao Pavilion Master, in a fit of anger, seize the opportunity to wipe out the Supreme Sect?

But now...

Xiao Yi's malicious smile made them feel an extremely ominous premonition.

"Elder Tu, why are you in such a hurry to leave?" Xiao Yi's voice suddenly came, and he was already right beside them.

Xiao Yi had one hand on Tu Sen's shoulder.

The power of the world's origin flowed through his palm.

Firmly binding Tu Sen.

Preventing him from breaking free from his constraints.

Xiao Yi's lips curled into a slight smile as he looked at the awkward-looking Tu Sen and said, "Elder Tu, it's been a while since we last met after I was crowned as the Saint Heir. How come when old acquaintances meet, you try to leave without a word?"

Tu Sen's lips twitched hard, looking at Xiao Yi's familiar demeanor, he dryly smiled, "The, the Sect Master summoned me, so I must return first..."

Before Xiao Yi could speak,

The First Peak Master who was also flying over remarked in surprise, "Elder Tu, are you talking nonsense? Isn't the God Slayer Sect Master right beside you?"

The God Slayer Sect Master turned green.

Damn it!

Couldn't you come up with a better excuse?

Tu Sen was also embarrassed.

"Elder Tu, this is wrong. Your Sect Master is right here, yet you say he summoned you back? Isn't this bullying my innocence?"

Xiao Yi looked displeased at Tu Sen, speaking with an innocent demeanor, but the hand on Tu Sen's shoulder only tightened, "Since you're already here, let's gather together, shall we?"

He looked up at the Feather Transformation Sect Master next to the God Slayer Sect Master: "This must be the Feather Transformation Sect Master? Come, come, there's no time like the present; with the four major sects assembled today, we should have a good chat!"

The Feather Transformation Sect Master's face was as black as coal.

The God Slayer Sect Master's face was grim.

But since Xiao Yi had put it that way, and seeing the nearby Heavenly Tao Pavilion Master eyeing them like a tiger, they had no choice.

They could only follow Xiao Yi towards where the Heavenly Tao Pavilion Master and Li Tianchao were.

"Heavenly Tao Pavilion Master, Li Sect Master!" The Feather Transformation Sect Master cupped his hands in greeting.

The God Slayer Sect Master snorted coldly, acknowledging with the two.

Xiao Yi grinned and said, "It's rare for the four major sects to gather today. Let's take this opportunity to discuss compensation!"

"Compensation? What compensation?" questioned the God Slayer Sect Master with a frown.

The Feather Transformation Sect Master also feigned ignorance, "Yeah, what are you talking about?"

Xiao Yi looked at the two with a half-smile but ignored them, instead focusing on Li Tianchao, "Li Sect Master, was it the sole intention of your Supreme Sect for the three sects to jointly ambush me this time?"

Who is Li Tianchao?

He's the Peak Saint King!

To cultivate to such a level, everyone is a cunning fox.

He immediately understood Xiao Yi's intention of involving the God Slayer Sect and the Feather Transformation Sect, knowing that the Supreme Sect alone couldn't fulfill those compensations.

Turning his gaze, Li Tianchao figured out Xiao Yi's plan.

He initially wanted to refuse.

But thinking about pulling these two sects into the mess would mean he only had to pay one-third of the compensation.

With this thought,

Li Tianchao cast a sympathetic glance at the two.

"It's over!"

"This is bad!" gasped the God Slayer Sect Master and the Feather Transformation Sect Master inwardly.

Taking a deep breath, Li Tianchao said, "Saint Heir Xiao is right. This matter was not solely the idea of the Supreme Sect; these two also contributed strategies and bear equal responsibility with the Supreme Sect!"

Sorry, gentlemen!

It's better you fall than my sect dies!

For the Supreme Sect's millennia of foundation, dragging you down with us is the only option!

Li Tianchao thought to himself and avoided looking at the two any further.

The God Slayer Sect Master and the Feather Transformation Sect Master exchanged glances.

The God Slayer Sect Master retorted, "What nonsense!"

"This is between you; how's it related to us?" said the Feather Transformation Sect Master.

Xiao Yi, with a faint smile, looked at them, "So, it seems you disagree with Li Sect Master's statement, don't you?"

"Of course not!"

"Why should we also compensate?" the two replied.

Xiao Yi said, "In that case, you can leave now!"

"Hmm?"

The two were taken aback.

Is it that easy to let us go?

With an indifferent tone, Xiao Yi continued, "I trust Li Sect Master's character. If he says you were involved, he surely isn't lying. After I receive the Supreme Sect's compensation, I will personally visit the God Slayer Sect and Feather Transformation Sect to claim the parts you're responsible for..."

The two: "..."

What the hell do you mean you trust his character?

You're just saying whatever suits your claims!

They wished they could turn and leave.

But seeing Xiao Yi's playful gaze and the Heavenly Tao Pavilion Master standing silently by, they knew that if they really showed up at their door, they wouldn't stand a chance!

The two exchanged a look.

Hesitating.

Li Tianchao said, "Gentlemen, providing compensation now is at least more dignified than having them come to your doorstep..."

He now just wanted to minimize his losses.

Not opposed to helping Xiao Yi persuade the two.

The two gave him a hard glare but knew Li Tianchao was right. With no other choice, they reluctantly said, "Fine, we'll compensate..."
