Mortal Cultivation: Portable Space
#1756 - Negotiate again
Now that both sides had reached an agreement, Huangfu Sheng and the others no longer made things difficult and led their disciples to follow closely.
Li Liannan and Mi Yue exchanged a glance, shook their heads slightly, and also rose to fly away from the area, heading straight for the periphery.
With these two Nascent Soul stage cultivators compromising, the other minor cultivators naturally dared not linger and followed suit.
Even those who had concealed themselves revealed their presence and quickly flew towards the outer perimeter, finding a place to observe the situation.
However, everyone's eyes were focused on Wu Fan and his large group.
They really wanted to see how they would break the great formation.
...
"Friend Wu, how confident are you in breaking this formation?"
At the foot of the mountain, the group stood still in the air. Huangfu Sheng asked Wu Fan, who was in front, with a hopeful look in his eyes.
"I can't say for sure yet; I need to try it first. But before that, shouldn't we discuss the distribution of loot?"
Wu Fan stood at the forefront, turned to look at the others upon hearing this, and asked with an indifferent expression.
"This...!"
The others couldn't help but exchange glances, their faces showing both surprise and acceptance.
It seemed that this person was not one to take a loss. But thinking about it, it was normal, since whether or not they could enter the ruins depended entirely on him.
Only Gong Yugan's expression remained normal, and he immediately nodded.
"Indeed, Friend Wu has come alone and is at a disadvantage in terms of numbers. It is appropriate to discuss this. I wonder how Friend Wu would like to distribute the spoils?"
Huangfu Sheng was also an old fox. Knowing that this matter could not be refused, he immediately took the lead in agreeing, showing great magnanimity, clearly wanting to gain favor.
Xiahou Jian and Madam Yan just wanted to speak, but swallowed the words back, and glared at Huangfu Sheng discreetly.
"As I said before, this 'Crystal Wall Guardian Formation' is no ordinary formation. With the level of me and Brother Gongyu, we cannot break it with formation-breaking tools. We must use formations to break the formation to have any hope."
"But as you all know, this Crystal Wall Guardian Formation is a multi-attribute formation, with various energies interlocking and interconnected. It is ineffective to target and break only one attribute. Therefore, the two of us must set up several sets of targeted formations."
"Moreover, setting up these formations is quite difficult. Not to mention the time it will take, the cost of those consumable materials alone is astronomical. And this does not even include the trouble of breaking the restrictions later."
"So, after considering it, for the sake of fairness, I would like you all to agree that after entering the ruins, I will choose three items first, and as for the rest, we will divide them equally."
"In addition, after the top-grade spirit stone mine is completely mined in the future, your sects must give me 20%. Of course, I only want top-grade spirit stones, and the other grades of spirit stones will belong to you. I wonder if you have any objections to my proposal?"
Wu Fan did not waste any time and immediately stated his demands.
Of course, he was very particular about the way he spoke, not making demands right away, but first talking about the difficulty of breaking the formation and how many precious materials it would cost, so that the others could feel balanced and might agree.
But in the end, Wu Fan's request was still excessive. After all, the ruins were clearly not an ordinary place, and the treasures inside would certainly not be simple. He wanted to choose three items right away, and no one would agree to that.
However, he was betting that the others were afraid of his strength and might grit their teeth and agree. At the very least, he could bargain.
As for the top-grade spirit stones, there was nothing to say. Presumably, those people would not care, after all, he did not bring any disciples, and he only wanted top-grade spirit stones. In terms of reason and emotion, his proposal was not excessive.
"What? Friend Wu wants to choose three items in advance? That won't do. We don't even know what treasures are inside yet. How can we give you three items all at once? What if there are only three items inside? Wouldn't the sect have come for nothing? No, no, that's absolutely impossible."
Sure enough, as soon as Wu Fan finished speaking, Huangfu Sheng immediately widened his eyes and shook his head like a rattle drum, refusing without hesitation.
Even Xiahou Jian and Madam Yan's faces darkened at this time.
Even Gong Yugan, his friend, grimaced and glared at Wu Fan unhappily.
However, Gong Yugan did not refute what Wu Fan had said about breaking the formation, because the two of them had discussed the matter of breaking the formation earlier, and what he said was indeed true. But it was unreasonable to ask for three treasures just because of the loss of some materials.
"Then I wonder what Friend Huangfu intends to do?"
Wu Fan was not surprised at all and asked with a raised eyebrow.
"This...!"
Huangfu Sheng frowned upon hearing this, not knowing what to say for a moment, because he didn't want to be the villain and stand out. But after a little thought, he turned his attention to Madam Yan.
"Friend Wu, you saved me before, so I shouldn't object in principle, but your condition is indeed excessive. If I agree to you, I won't be able to explain it to my senior brother when I go back. How about this, we can agree to the spirit stone matter, but as for the selection of treasures, I can only agree to let you choose first, then Friend Gongyu, and finally the three of us will decide by drawing lots."
Madam Yan knew what Huangfu Sheng meant, but she also didn't want to offend Wu Fan. But it would be too difficult for Xiahou Jian to offend people. After a moment of silence, this woman still said with a wry smile.
As soon as these words came out, Huangfu Sheng and Xiahou Jian felt relieved and immediately looked at Wu Fan.
"I'm putting in so much effort, and only getting a chance to choose first? Don't you think that's unfair to me?"
Wu Fan's face also darkened and he said coldly.
"This...!"
The others exchanged glances, their brows furrowed.
"How about this, I don't want three items anymore, just choose one first, and the rest will be distributed according to what you said, but I want to choose first in the first round."
Seeing the troubled expressions on their faces, Wu Fan shook his head imperceptibly and finally made a concession.
The meaning was obvious, he had to get one more, and the rest had to be chosen first, then his formation-breaking partner Gong Yugan. As for how the rest was divided, it was not up to him.
In this way, he had already asked for two less than before, and he didn't believe that the other few would still disagree.
But this was also good, at least he could pick out the two best ones first.
"Okay, I don't object, I'll follow Friend Wu's lead."
The space was only quiet for a moment, and Madam Yan agreed with a bite. It seemed that this woman still remembered Wu Fan's life-saving grace.
"Okay, I agree too!"
"Hehe, I naturally won't object!"
Huangfu Sheng and Xiahou Jian exchanged glances and nodded in agreement one after another.
As for Gong Yugan, he didn't speak, and the others didn't ask his opinion, after all, everyone knew that he and Wu Fan were friends and would not object.
"But Brother Wu, what if there aren't enough to divide in the later rounds? That wouldn't be fair."
At this time, Xiahou Jian frowned and asked again.
Now there were five people here. Wu Fan wanted one first, which meant six less in the first round. If there were only ten, then one person would not get a share in the second round, and he was the least important person here, so it was very likely that he would not get anything.
