Chapter 2202: Chapter 2202
Seeing the situation, those who had originally gasped immediately panicked.
The Cloud Emperor's face was filled with panic, and he hurriedly said, "Su Alliance Leader, don't... don't get agitated, we're discussing things properly."
"What is there to discuss? I raised my first demand, and you all disagreed. What is there left to talk about?" Su Yang said coldly.
"No, it's just... this time you want us to withdraw so many, it's truly too many..." the Cloud Emperor said quietly, "Su Alliance Leader, how about you change your demand, all the other demands can be discussed!"
"Is that so?" Su Yang sneered, "Alright then, I'll change the demand. From now on, all Seven Realms people must get out and not return to the Human World. How's this demand?"
The Cloud Emperor's face turned cold; Su Yang was clearly toying with him!
"Su Alliance Leader, can't we be a bit sincere?" the Cloud Emperor said in a deep voice.
"Am I insincere, or are you?" Su Yang's voice was icy, "I asked you to withdraw half your people, so what? Have we bullied your people in the Human World, or outright killed them? As long as you stay in the Heavenly Court and abide by the rules of the Human World, everyone gets along peacefully. No one has ever proposed to do anything to you, right? Instead, when people from the Seven Realms took advantage of my absence from the Human World, they stirred up trouble. Relying on their numbers, they acted with impunity in the Human World, doing unforgivable things. Who's right and who's wrong?"
"I'm asking you to withdraw half your people for a reason. By reducing your numbers in the Human World, we can manage better. In the future, even if I go out to handle things, with only half your people, Qinghe Academy can easily suppress you, ensuring you won't break the rules in the Human World. This is for the benefit of the Human World. So, are you keeping so many people really to attack the Human World?"
The Cloud Emperor was momentarily speechless; he really couldn't refute Su Yang's words. As Su Yang said, the Human World had never done anything to the Seven Realms. It was always the Seven Realms causing trouble in the Human World. So, it seemed reducing the number of people from the Seven Realms in the Human World was indeed necessary.
But the problem was, after such lengthy negotiations, the Seven Realms barely managed to get so many people into the Human World. Their purpose wasn't just Feather Spirit Palace but also to occupy the Human World.
Under such circumstances, with Su Yang asking them to withdraw, how could they be willing?
"Su Alliance Leader, the people sent by the Seven Realms to the Human World were decided through joint deliberations by the Seven Realms. It's not appropriate to change that," the Cloud Emperor said quietly, "How about you suggest another demand?"
"What other demand?" Su Yang said coldly, "This is my first demand. If you disagree, then there's nothing to talk about. Prepare to fight!"
All around, the crowd immediately surrounded them again, glaring fiercely at those from the Seven Realms.
The Cloud Emperor's face was extremely ugly. Was Su Yang really a battle maniac, always ready to start a fight?
Looking around at those around, the Cloud Emperor sighed and said quietly, "Su Alliance Leader, how about this, give us some time to discuss, okay?"
"Fine, half an hour!" Su Yang said coldly, "In half an hour, if you don't agree, we'll start fighting immediately. If you agree, choose your people right away and get out of the Human World!"
The Cloud Emperor was speechless; Su Yang was too overbearing, acting like a Saint with no room for negotiation.
However, by now, he really didn't dare provoke Su Yang. After all, Su Yang looked poised to shatter the Heavenly Road. If things turned ugly, they would be doomed.
The Cloud Emperor gave a signal, and people from the Seven Realms followed him back. At the same time, the Cloud Emperor called back the people from the Buddha Domain.
"It seems the Cloud Emperor intends to use the Buddha Domain's passage to enter the Human World!" the Dean said in a deep voice.
"They can't use the Buddha Domain's passage," Monk Wu Nian stated flatly. After he had disguised himself and had his aura changed by Su Yang, even the people from the Buddha Domain didn't recognize him standing beside them.
"Can't use it?" the Dean asked curiously, "Why not?"
"The Buddha Domain won't allow it!" Monk Wu Nian said quietly, "The Buddha Domain forbids any outsiders from entering. Even though the Heavenly Realm has good relations with the Buddha Domain, no one from the Heavenly Realm has ever set foot there, not even the Saints!"
The Dean looked at Monk Wu Nian in surprise. Such a thing? What does the Buddha Domain mean by this?
Su Yang was also somewhat puzzled. The Buddha Domain was too mysterious. What secrets does it conceal within?
In less than half an hour, these people had returned from the Heavenly Court.
From their expressions, it was clear that they were not satisfied with the negotiation results this time. And this made Su Yang very pleased.
The Cloud Emperor, looking aggrieved, glanced at Su Yang and quietly said, "Fine, as you said, we'll select half our people to leave the Human World. Is that satisfactory now?"
"Very good!" Su Yang laughed, "Now that the first condition is met, we can continue with the second one!"
"You have a second condition!?" the Cloud Emperor's eyes widened, and others nearly went crazy. The first condition nearly drove them mad, and now there's a second condition. What exactly does Su Yang want?
"The first condition was to ensure the Human World's safety. The second condition is the actual punishment for their wrongdoings!" Su Yang said coldly, "What, don't wrongdoers have to pay the price?"
"You... you're going too far..." the Demon Realm leader said angrily.
"Too far?" Su Yang glanced at him with a slight smirk, not saying a word.
The Demon Realm leader felt uneasy under Su Yang's gaze; he couldn't help it. Su Yang was too formidable now. Even the Cloud Emperor was submissive, let alone others.
"Fine, go ahead and say it!" the Cloud Emperor waved his hand. He also realized that the people from the Seven Realms dared not oppose Su Yang. No matter what, Su Yang's demand had to be stated, and they could decide after listening.
Su Yang said coldly, "For the deeds these people committed in the Human World, many must pay with their lives. Out of respect, I won't kill them, but they must offer something tangible as compensation, right?"
The Cloud Emperor was stunned for a moment. Was Su Yang explicitly demanding compensation?
However, the Cloud Emperor also felt slightly relieved.
If it's about compensation, that's simple. If things can be compensated with items, there's no need to worry about other issues.
The Cloud Emperor looked around, and everyone nodded, indicating they were unconcerned about this matter.
