Chapter 1845: Giving an Explanation

Though the invited Yueyao came from different races, they had never tasted human flesh before.

The one who had spoken earlier, the Yueyao who was eagerly anticipating the blood sacrifice, now also showed a troubled expression.

If what was presented here on Purple Jewel Isle was a spirit beast, he would certainly be pleased. But alas, what was presented was actually a moon jade human!

Like how a cultivator would never use the power of the Heavenly Talent Tree to refine the energy within their body, it's not that they can't, but there's a natural psychological resistance.

The lively atmosphere suddenly fell silent.

He said this, then turned to look at Shixin: "Senior brother."

The lion-hearted man remained seated, unmoving, merely nodding slightly: "Begin!"

"Yes!" Hu Guang replied, striding toward the bamboo bed. In three strides, he stopped in front of it, flipped his wrist, and grasped a slender short blade. "Don't worry everyone, I'm quite skilled with the blade. You'll all get to taste the freshest blood food. Before tonight's banquet ends, the blood food won't die."

The short blade flashed, poised to strike.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

At that moment, a wine glass suddenly flew out, heading straight for Hu Guang's side, blocking the short blade's attack. A sharp cracking sound echoed as the glass shattered into fragments.

Hu Guang raised his head and looked at Lu Ye.

At the same time, Lu Ye was enveloped by several powerful auras. Almost as soon as he made his move to intercept them, these auras descended upon him. They came from the cultivators of Yue Yao on Zi Xuan Island. Each one wore a grim expression, clearly prepared beforehand, otherwise their reaction wouldn't have been so swift.

"Fellow cultivator, what do you mean" Hu Guang narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Ye.

"Lu Ye looked at Yuan Cheng, who was smiling over there, and said faintly: 'The War with Bai Yue was a self-defense counterattack by our Sanjie Island, not a war that we initiated. You, Yuan Daoist, should be the most clear about the reasons behind it, so why do you have to be so evasive here'"

“I don’t know.” Yuan Cheng shook his head. “All I know is that Bai Yue was conquered by you. All the Yue Yao on Bai Yue Island were slaughtered, and those many celestial bodies would have likely been killed as well if they hadn’t escaped quickly. Fellow Daoist, your actions are decisive and ruthless. I truly admire you. Come, Yuan here borrows a flower to offer to the Buddha, and I raise a toast to you.”

He said this, and drank it himself.

Lu Ye ignored him. Yuan Cheng was deliberately stirring up trouble here. There was no point in paying attention to him. He turned his head to look at Hu Guang and said, "Fellow Daoist, you say that the cultivators of our Sanjie Island killed Zi Xuanxing's people, there must be a misunderstanding. Could you please lift the restrictions so I can ask about it"

Hu Guang spoke so definitively that there was no room for negotiation on his side.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Lu Ye asked, “What do you want”

Hu Guangxiang didn't even think, immediately raising two fingers: "For each Purple Xuan cultivator who was killed, 200 million spirit stones in compensation. Those deceased cultivators were the pillars of their respective families. Their deaths dealt a fatal blow to the development of their families."

Lu Ye never expected Hu Guang to propose such a condition. He couldn't help but ask, "What's the total amount"

Hu Guangdao: “He killed my Zixuan five cultivators, totaling ten billion!”

Lu Ye stared at him, "Ten billion spirit jade, to buy his life"

Hu Guang smiled faintly: "If you think it's too expensive, you can also refuse!"

Lu Ye pursued, "Friend Daoist, can you confirm that if I hand over ten billion spirit jade, he can leave Purple Jade Island safely"

Hu Guang nodded and said, "Of course."

Lu Ye nodded. “Wait a moment!” He said, taking out a piece of music and pretending to transmit it outside.

Hu Guang was startled, clearly not expecting Lu Ye to agree so readily. Ten billion Spirit Jade for a month of Yao's life – this kind of decisiveness wasn't something anyone possessed. He had set the price at ten billion as a way to retreat while advancing, wanting to pressure Lu Ye into agreeing to other conditions. After all, this was an extremely lopsided deal. If Wei Po truly had extraordinary talent and a bright future, it might be acceptable, but the crucial point was that although Wei Po possessed aptitude, no one could say for sure about his future.

On the other side, at Sanzhe Island, Lu Ye's true body opened his eyes and looked at Luan Xia'e who had been waiting here: "Senior Sister, quickly prepare ten billion spirit jade."

"Why would Lingyu do this" Luan Xia'e was startled.

"Buying a pawn's life!" Lu Ye simply explained the situation on his clone's side.

Luan Xia'e’s expression struggled fiercely. After a long moment, she gritted her teeth and said, “Junior brother, the current situation is… even if you bring ten billion spirit jade there, Zi Xuan Island probably won’t let it go. Protecting him… He’s most likely dead.”

< Zi Xuan Island waited for a whole year to complete its current layout, how could it easily reconcile with the San Jie Island side Ten billion Ling Yu's condolences were just the tip of the iceberg. Zi Xuan Island didn't expect Lu Ye to agree to this proposal at all. Their goal wasn't ten billion Ling Yu, so in Luan Xiaoe's view, sending ten billion Ling Yu was a complete waste of effort.

>

It's not that she wouldn't part with ten billion spirit jade. Ten billion is a large sum, but the current resources of the Three Realms Island could still manage it. It's just that this kind of sacrifice wouldn't be very meaningful.

She could see this, and Lu Ye on Zi Xuan Island could certainly see it too. But since the other party had made this proposal, he had no choice but to agree.

Lu Ye nodded. "I naturally know, but since Wei Po has been captured, we can't just sit idly by. As long as there's even a sliver of possibility, we must try our best. Don't worry, Senior Sister. If they truly dare to go back on their word, if we give them ten billion today, we will definitely get ten times the amount back in the future!"

As for Lu Ye and Luan Xia'e, Du Xian naturally trusted them unconditionally. He nodded immediately and said, "Okay!"

After a while, Luan Xia'e returned with a large pile of storage rings, and handed them to Lu Ye: "There isn't enough spirit jade for ten billion. I've gathered some materials to make up the difference, their total value is definitely more than ten billion."

Lu Ye nodded, took the storage rings and immediately left Sanjie Island, heading towards Zixuan.
