NOVEL WEB Chapter 266: Everyone is Stunned
A few people still cast admiring glances.
Zhu Qiang was immediately displeased. Just as he was about to say something, Lin Nuoyi stopped him.
"Zhu Qiang, shut up. Do you want Ye Chen to have more trouble? Ye Chen naturally has his own plans for doing this."
Zhu Qiang still muttered a bit unconvincingly, "Hmph, he didn't even mention Brother Chen. I'm just a bit annoyed by it."
Ox Dragon curiously asked, "You had a deal with them, what deal? Is there really room for negotiation with monsters?"
The others also expressed curiosity, thinking that negotiating with monsters was quite an unbelievable thing.
Wang Zhan said, "As long as they are intelligent beings, there is room for negotiation. After all, everything is based on interests."
At this moment, Profound Maiden walked over.
"Your Excellency, Profound Maiden," Wang Zhan said respectfully.
Profound Maiden nodded and said indifferently, "The matter is resolved. Should we also have a talk now?"
"Of course, that's not a problem. How about we change places?"
"Hmm!"
Wang Zhan turned to Ox Dragon and a few others with a smile, "Sorry, Brother Ox Dragon, we have to discuss some matters here first."
"Alright!"
Ox Dragon understood very well, after all, this was their territory, and he was from another city, how they talked was their business and it had nothing to do with him.
Wang Zhan called all the alliance leaders from several nearby counties and districts to the conference room.
In the conference room, everyone sat in their places.
Profound Maiden sat in the main seat, followed by sixteen Lord Level monsters.
All the alliance leaders knew what was to be discussed this time, nothing more than the matter of territory.
Desert Valley Alliance Leader Zheng Nanfei said in a low voice, "Brother Wei Jiangtan, I feel that we're going to be driven away this time, we probably can't hold on to Ning County."
Wei Jiangtan sighed, "What can we do? We're just fish and meat on a chopping board now. Even if the Law Enforcement Alliance doesn't push us, if the monster army stands at our alliance's doorstep, do you have a choice?"
Zheng Nanfei kept shaking his head.
They all understood in their hearts that calling them here this time was just to notify them, they had no say in the matter.
Wang Zhan coughed, and everyone stopped talking.
Wang Zhan smiled at Profound Maiden, "Your Excellency, Profound Maiden, what are your requests?"
Profound Maiden looked at everyone, placed her jade hands on the table, clasped them together, and said, "My request is simple: City Z, two districts, half each. I want one district, three counties, including Qing County, Ning County, and Xia County. For the district, I want Aggregation District, how about it?"
Wang Zhan thought for a moment and decided to agree.
Suddenly, Ye Chen spoke up, "No, the Aggregation District can't be given to you, you have to choose another place!"
As soon as Ye Chen finished speaking, the people from the other three counties immediately got angry.
"Kid, who do you think you are, what business do you have here! Lord Wang Zhan has already agreed! Do you have the right to speak?"
"Exactly, who do you think you are, you're only here to be informed, did you really think you have the right to resist?"
"LV24 level, don't think you're really somebody, here you're nothing, among everyone present, who isn't an alliance leader, a hero of their own, and you're just a brat still wet behind the ears, barking here, what kind of thing are you!"
The ones speaking were all alliance leaders from the other three counties, all fearing that Profound Maiden would choose their territory.
Ye Chen coldly looked at them, smiling inwardly.
Chen Dalong, the alliance leader of the Fierce Beast Alliance, known for his fiery temper, slapped the table and pointed at Ye Chen's nose, scolding, "What are you looking at, keep looking and I'll dig out your eyes. Do you believe I'll throw you out, what nonsense! A mere trash! LV24 level, really think you're something!"
During the battle earlier, Ye Chen had been wearing the Seven-Colored Armor, now that the Seven-Colored Armor had faded, they didn't recognize Ye Chen.
Mo Sang, sitting to the side, almost burst out laughing, covering his mouth.
"Chen Dalong! Shut up! And who do you think you are, shouting here!" Wang Zhan was furious, pointing at Chen Dalong and roaring.
Chen Dalong was stunned immediately, "Lord Wang Zhan, I... this kid spoke out of turn, I was just helping you teach him a lesson."
Ye Chen saw through Chen Dalong's little scheme at a glance, he just wanted to play the hero, thinking if he rebuked Ye Chen, he could gain Wang Zhan's favor.
To his surprise, Wang Zhan scolded, "Helping me teach a lesson, who do you think you are to help me! From today, all members of your Fierce Beast Alliance are to be taken over by the Law Enforcement Alliance!"
"No, Lord Wang Zhan, I know I was wrong!"
"Shut up!"
Wang Zhan didn't give Chen Dalong any chance to argue, and instead looked towards Ye Chen, showing a fawning smile.
Chen Dalong looked at Ye Chen with even more hatred, his gaze wishing to skin Ye Chen alive.
The others looked towards Profound Maiden, because they understood that what Profound Maiden said was what really mattered.
Profound Maiden looked at Chen Dalong, smiled alluringly, "Chen Dalong, is it?"
Chen Dalong looked at Profound Maiden, and was immediately struck dumb by her smile, she was just too beautiful.
He suddenly thought his opportunity had arrived, believing that since Profound Maiden was the true leader of this meeting, and Ye Chen dared to contradict her, making her angry, whereas he had fiercely reprimanded Ye Chen. Surely this would win the favor of Lady Profound Maiden, and if he gained her favor, Ye Chen and even Wang Zhan wouldn't matter.
Chen Dalong stood up, placing his right hand on his right chest, and bowed, speaking in what he thought was a gentlemanly fashion, "Honorable Lady Profound Maiden, my name is Chen Dalong, leader of the Fierce Beast Alliance."
Profound Maiden looked at Chen Dalong's ridiculous posture and couldn't help but chuckle, "Which county are you from?"
Chen Dalong's heart leaped with joy, suddenly feeling his spring had come, thinking that if Profound Maiden asked such a question, could she intend to entrust the whole county to him in the future?
"Honorable Lady Profound Maiden, I am from Yu County!"
"Good, I don't want Aggregation District anymore, I want Yu County!" Profound Maiden said coldly.
"Ah!" Chen Dalong was instantly dumbfounded!
"What are you ah-ing about, hurry and sit down, Lady Profound Maiden has spoken, Yu County is hers, what are you ah-ing for!" The other two counties began to shout at Chen Dalong.
They were overjoyed inside, as this had nothing to do with them now.
With restrained laughter, they pulled Chen Dalong down.
Chen Ruxin looked at Ye Chen, and Ye Chen happened to look at Chen Ruxin, her smile carried gratitude and a hint of ambiguity.
Lin Jingtian and Mo Sang cupped their fists to express their thanks to Ye Chen.
If Aggregation District were really taken over by Profound Maiden, their alliance would cease to exist.
The reason Ye Chen let go of Qing County was because whether it was in his hands or Profound Maiden's, it made no difference.
If not given up, people from other places would certainly flood into Qing County, which would be more harm than good in the end.
However, Ye Chen didn't know what kind of reaction this action of his stirred among the others.
The others looked at Ye Chen with deep shock.
They were all smart people, bewildered and amazed that Ye Chen could change the conditions set by Wang Zhan and Profound Maiden with just a word.
