Chapter 444: What Conditions Do You Have?

The Soul Fire of the Immortal Lord flickered madly. It rushed toward Leona. The power of the undead erupted from his body.
Without hesitation, Xu Yuan unleashed endless energy from the ancient god statue in his hand. He charged forward.
The Immortal Lord sensed this and grew anxious. The sealing stone was his bargaining chip!
If it was taken away by the Vampire Duke, he would have nothing left to negotiate.
Leona grabbed the stone from the altar. The Immortal Lord’s bone arm clenched into a fist and struck her, unleashing the surging power of the undead. He intended to kill her.
The Immortal Lord was surprised to see that his hand only struck air. He hadn’t hit Leona at all!
However, Leona was sent flying backward. When she touched the stone on the altar, the runes erupted and repelled her. Even the Immortal Lord was affected.
His severed arm halted because of the flow of power. His ethereal body rippled.
Xu Yuan, with the ancient god statue, had appeared beside the Immortal Lord in the blink of an eye.
The dim light enveloped the Immortal Lord. He felt as though he had been splashed with acid. Thick smoke emerged from his body, and he was disintegrating.
Xu Yuan passed through the ethereal body like lightning and grabbed the severed arm. The ancient god statue became excited, sensing its prey.
At this moment, the impact subsided, and the severed arm resumed its function.
The Immortal Lord perceived the erosion of his power. He was uneasy.
In his hollow eyes, the Soul Fire surged. The surrounding walls of the place began to disappear.
In the blink of an eye, they were transported back outside, among the corpses and ruins.
Xu Yuan looked at the Immortal Lord. He was also in the same spot as before.
The ethereal body had shattered even more than before. The aura emitted by the severed arm was faint. The power of the Immortal Lord had weakened.
Once again, both sides fell silent. But this time, Xu Yuan felt more confident. It seemed that the opponent didn’t have many means to restrain him.
He had engaged in close combat to test whether this god had the ability to break free from the effects of the ancient god statue. It seemed that he didn’t.
The Immortal Lord was even weaker than he had anticipated.
“You can’t remove the core of this sealed place. Without my assistance, forcibly removing it will cause the entire area to collapse. The soul of your centaur is connected to the entire island. If this place falls, your centaur will die!”
The Immortal Lord looked at Xu Yuan anxiously. Xu Yuan had even more power than he had imagined!
Furthermore, the Dark Demon Dragon showed no fear or reverence toward the gods. His made the Immortal Lord fear the dragon even more.
Xu Yuan turned to look at Leona.
“He speaks the truth. The stone seems to be the most important part of this island,” said Leona. “Forcibly taking it might destroy the place. We need the key.”
‘The key?* Xu Yuan frowned. The key was on Ferula’s wrist, but she was unconscious. Using the key recklessly might backfire.
“Let’s negotiate,” said the Immortal Lord.
The reason the centaur fell into a coma was that the Lords had tried to seize the stone. They needed to get the fragment and the Immortal Lord was willing to give it based on some condition he had.
“What conditions do you have?” asked Xu Yuan with narrowed eyes.
“I will help you safely remove the sealing stone, but you must not obstruct me when I leave.”
The Soul Fire in the Immortal Lord’s eyes flickered again.
“Do you think that the value of a centaur can compare to the gains of killing a god?” asked Xu Yuan.
The essence of negotiation was to never let the other person know about your weakness.
He and Su Wan would never give up on Ferula, but they needed to appear unbothered by it.
The Immortal Lord was uneasy. He had forgotten that dragons could be greedy!
He knew Su Wan was equally selfish. The Immortal Lord had dealt with enough Overlords to understand them.
“What do you want?” he asked.
“The question should be: what can you offer in return?” said Xu Yuan.
As soon as his words fell, his spiritual energy dissipated. He secretly instructed Leona to search for loopholes on this island.
Xu Yuan could allow the Vampire Duke to use his dark energy to merge into the Shadow Plane.
Leona made no visible movement, but her manifestation was already doing as instructed.
The Immortal Lord felt even more stressed when he sensed this.
He had personally dealt with vampires. They were troublesome creatures. If Leona found some loopholes, he couldn’t negotiate his freedom.
“Human lord, I can remove the seal and grant you this whole island,” said the Immortal Lord to Su Wan.
This sealed land had once been a divine kingdom. As long as it was nurtured, it could be turned into a separate plane.
An entire plane at her disposal!
The bargaining chip was already enough to satisfy the Dark Demon Dragon and the human Lord in front of him..
