Chapter 698 Key Negotiation Points: Aren't the interests quite normal?
"You should have investigated me. Extreme Ice is immune to all poisons, so poison has no effect on me," Ye Nanxiao said calmly.
"I see. So this envoy is quite impressive, isn't he?" Orange rested her chin on one hand and snapped her fingers with the other.
A female soldier from the Fire Phoenix Army pushed a small food cart over and placed plates of exquisite dishes on the table.
Seeing the scene before him, Ye Nanxiao frowned and asked, "Ju Zi, what are you trying to do?"
"Yes, I do!" Orange replied, her eyes crinkling with delight.
"...She's a female hooligan." Ye Nanxiao felt helpless. The situation before him was like being placed on the dining table of a domineering queen, with no room for retaliation.
"Ahem!" Fire Phoenix Douluo couldn't stand it anymore and coughed twice to remind Orange not to forget the important matter.
Although the man in front of us is very handsome, the empire's mission still needs to be dealt with. It's not too late to tie this young man to the bed after we've finished dealing with him!
Ju Zi glanced at Fire Phoenix Douluo, sighed with a hint of regret, then maintained her smile and said, "Envoy of Star Luo, what message did your Emperor send you with?"
Ye Nanxiao asked seriously, "We want to know what your intentions are in amassing such a large number of troops on the border? Do you want to start a war?"
Although he roughly judged that the Sun Moon Empire was unlikely to start a war at this time, the Fire Phoenix and the Imperial Dragon were like two thorns pricking Dai Hao's nerves.
Whether war will break out or not is unknown, but since the other side has amassed a large number of troops, we must take the same measures.
"Going to war? Don't accuse us of that. We're just conducting a routine border patrol because there have been several serious crimes in the border area recently!"
As she spoke, a murderous glint flashed in Ju Zi's eyes, and her jade-like hand on the table clenched slightly.
All of these reactions were naturally noticed by Ye Nanxiao, who was sitting opposite him.
"What's wrong with the orange? Could it really be Xu Tianran's conspiracy?" Ye Nanxiao wondered.
"If it's just a routine patrol, is such a large-scale operation really necessary? Two legions conducting the patrol simultaneously?"
Orange narrowed her eyes slightly. "Then, how should the inspection be conducted? Why don't you, Ye Nanxiao, the envoy of Xingluo, tell this commander?"
"Even if it's just an inspection, is there any need to reveal a large fixed-mount soul-guided cannon? Or does Commander Orange enjoy being stared at by the muzzle of a giant cannon?" Ye Nanxiao replied expressionlessly.
Seeing the two locked in a fierce confrontation, Fire Phoenix Douluo made a gesture behind him, and several female soldiers guarding the door immediately retreated.
He had long heard of Ye Nanxiao's reputation. If the two could not reach an agreement, Fire Phoenix Douluo felt that his Fire Phoenix female soldiers would not be a match for Ye Nanxiao. Each Fire Phoenix female soldier was an extremely valuable member of the Fire Phoenix Soul Instructor Group.
Within Ye Nanxiao's spiritual sea, Xue Di and Bajiao Town shared their vision, observing Ye Nanxiao's gaze.
"Sister Xue, Nanxiao has been targeted by that old woman. Should we go out and fight?" Bajiao asked, as he could clearly feel the pressure emanating from the old woman in red.
Xue Di shook her head slightly and said with interest, "It's alright, these two are just putting on an act. That old woman is Ju Zi's subordinate. Although this place is a den of wolves, for Xiao'er, the only real wolf is the woman in front of him."
The wolf, who would swallow a fox whole, bones and all, couldn't wait to devour Ye Nanxiao.
"I see." Bajiao nodded as if he understood, though he didn't quite grasp the meaning behind Xue Di's words. But since Xue Di said he didn't need to move, he would just sit there quietly.
After a few rounds of verbal sparring, Ye Nanxiao received a signal from Ju Zi's eyes. He deliberately created a loophole in his words, allowing Ju Zi to take advantage of the situation.
"Envoy Ye, since you suspect we have ulterior motives, why don't we stay and talk some more?" Orange said. "To clear up the misunderstanding between us and Xingluo, I'm sure Envoy Ye won't believe us with just words, will he?"
Upon hearing this, Fire Phoenix Douluo's expression changed slightly, but seeing Ju Zi's confident demeanor, he had no choice but to hold back for the time being.
They also faced the menacing Imperial Dragon Soul Instructor Corps. If a misunderstanding arose with Shrek Academy, Xu Tianyuan might seize the opportunity to kick them while they were down, completely muddying up the border. Moreover, Duke White Tiger was also on guard.
Xu Tianyuan held a strong opinion about Ju Zi becoming the commander of the Protectorate, and made no attempt to hide his hostility towards Ju Zi. He completely ignored Ju Zi's orders, yet Xu Tianran still favored him.
Fire Phoenix Douluo thinks highly of Orange and is willing to become Orange's guardian. She believes that Orange's talent far surpasses that of the simple-minded Xu Tianyuan and that Orange can lead the Fire Phoenix Soul Master Group, or even the Guardian Hand, to greater heights.
Ye Nanxiao was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay, but I need to send a letter back."
Orange's smile deepened as she picked up her wine glass and offered it to the envoy. "Then Orange will toast the envoy. Oh, by the way, I'm here on a mission, so entertainment is a bit lacking. I hope the envoy won't mind?"
Ye Nanxiao looked at the wine glass in front of him and the faint lip print on it, and couldn't help but glare at Ju Zi. This silly girl is still causing trouble. Doesn't she know that there is a Title Douluo watching her?
Receiving a sharp look from Ye Nanxiao, Ju Zi tilted her head slightly, signaling Ye Nanxiao to look over.
Ye Nanxiao took the wine glass, and with a slight shift in his gaze, he saw the Fire Phoenix Douluo whose face seemed to say, "You dare not leave if you don't drink."
"..."
Is this wine absolutely necessary to drink?
The old woman is still staring at me. Is there something wrong with this wine?
Ye Nanxiao paused for a moment, then picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"Hmph, your Star Luo only uses what my Sun Moon Empire has left!" Fire Phoenix Douluo sneered, his voice carrying a hint of smugness.
With her back to Fire Phoenix Douluo, Orange winked playfully at Ye Nanxiao, her cherry lips slightly parted as she mouthed a few words.
"Isn't it exciting and fun?"
"I'll deal with you next time!" Ye Nanxiao glared at him.
He wasn't wrong; Fire Phoenix Douluo felt that Orange's actions were an insult to her, but she underestimated Ye Nanxiao's extremely flexible sense of shame.
humiliation?
This is fine wine!
Orange sent out a small carrier pigeon, and led Ye Nanxiao into a stone path.
"I'm afraid this isn't naturally formed, is it? Was it carved by man?" Ye Nanxiao touched the uneven stone wall, where the traces of human intervention were very obvious.
"Boy, watch your mouth. Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask!" Fire Phoenix Douluo released a slight amount of his aura, warning Ye Nanxiao.
Ye Nanxiao let the Fire Phoenix Douluo's oppressive aura fall on him as if it were nothing.
"Hmm?" Seeing Ye Nanxiao's relaxed expression, Fire Phoenix Douluo couldn't help but increase his pressure.
The entire stone path trembled slowly under the power of the Fire Phoenix Douluo, and a large amount of debris fell down.
Orange waved her hand to block a pile of pebbles, then called out helplessly, "Grandma Fire Phoenix, we don't have much water to bathe in."
Upon hearing this, Fire Phoenix Douluo snorted coldly and withdrew his oppressive aura, his gaze towards Ye Nanxiao now filled with wariness.
She knew exactly how much power she had used to exert that pressure.
After walking for about fifteen minutes, Ye Nanxiao finally saw the exit of the stone path.
The latest novel is first published here!
"Kid, this is your last warning, watch your eyes!" Fire Phoenix Douluo warned again.
"Alright, alright, there's nothing here that's worth my attention, except for this beautiful commander." As Ye Nanxiao spoke, he suddenly saw Ju Zi raise her right hand and conjure a familiar purple-skinned orange.
"You little brat!"
"You have a sweet tongue, here's a reward for you."
Fire Phoenix Douluo was about to get angry, but Ju Zi threw the purple-skinned orange in her hand to Ye Nanxiao first, which made Fire Phoenix Douluo's words stop in his throat.
Little Orange, could it be that you're interested in this pretty boy?
Thinking of this, Fire Phoenix Douluo looked at Ye Nanxiao with renewed wariness, and wary of a pig that might be stealing the cabbage.
Ye Nanxiao munched on a purple-skinned orange and followed the orange out of the stone path. What came into view was still a huge iron gate.
Behind the iron gate were huge, movable iron blocks, each three meters high and five meters wide, forming simple laboratories.
Orange led Ye Nanxiao into one of the iron block rooms.
"Grandma Fire Phoenix, please protect her," Orange said.
"Fire Phoenix obeys the order." Fire Phoenix Douluo's figure vanished from the spot in an instant.
Only Ye Nanxiao and Ju Zi remained in the iron block room.
"Tea? Or wine?" Orange took out a few bottles of wine from her storage bracelet and tossed a cushion to Ye Nanxiao.
"How about some milk tea? I've been researching peach milk tea lately." Ye Nanxiao took out two bottles of milk tea and casually put the wine that Ju Zi had taken out into his storage ring.
Just as Ye Nanxiao sat down, several iron balls suddenly rolled over to the small table in front of him. Upon closer inspection, he realized they were silencing beads!
"you"
Before he could finish speaking, Ye Nanxiao felt his collar being grabbed, followed by a familiar fruity scent and a soft touch on his lips.
The silent bead shimmered faintly, isolating all sound.
However, out of respect for Ju Zi, Fire Phoenix Douluo only activated his auditory perception.
a long time.
"Ha ha…"
Orange licked her lips, a hint of allure flashing across her face, and gently stroked the man's cheek with her delicate fingers. "It's not unreasonable for me to ask for some interest first, is it?"
"Negotiation is all about interests!"
Ye Nanxiao rubbed his face, wiping away the wetness. "You don't have to spit on me, do you? Or is this your peculiar way of welcoming me?"
"This is my unique way of welcoming you!" Orange leaned down and gently bit Ye Nanxiao's finger, her warm breath brushing against Ye Nanxiao's neck.
"Let's talk properly! I don't want to be thrown out by that old woman." Ye Nanxiao sat up and put the orange down.
Orange gave a coquettish snort, "You've exhausted all your energy with your concubines, leaving none for me."
"My energy is limitless, what do you think?" Ye Nanxiao sneered.
"Really? Let me see!" Orange leaned in again, reaching down with both hands.
"Alright, alright, hurry up and tell me what Xu Tianran is up to this time." Ye Nanxiao was too lazy to pay attention to Ju Zi's playful antics, but he didn't stop her either.
