Transmigrated Scoundrel's Exchange System
chapter-177

The council members and their leader were bewildered by Han Cai's proposal. They couldn't understand why he was making such a demand.

The first council member," Han Cai, I know that you are new and very talented, but you are being very disrespectful to the leader and fellow council members."

Han Cai sighed, knowing he didn't want to waste any more time.

He murmured," Seal!"

He immobilized the council members and the leader, presenting them with an ultimatum. "You have one night to consider your options. After that, I will not grant you another opportunity. If you don't agree, the Shadow Lotus will be destroyed, just like the others. Currently, you don't have any Qi in your bodies; if I wanted to, I could end your lives right here. But trust me when I say that I admire you for your noble cause: maintaining the balance of power in Daxing, which is not a bad objective. You don't demand much from your members besides support and loyalty. I would have enjoyed remaining in your organization and engaging in more games, but the truth is, I'm running out of time. You may not be the ideal choice, but you will suffice. All you need to do is take a Dao oath to watch over my sect and family. You all will become the ancestors of my family and sect. When I return, I expect to find my family and sect safe, or the entire Daxing continent will have to answer to me."

After saying his peace, Han Cai disappeared. The council members and the leader sat there, drenched in a cold sweat.

They wondered what kind of demon they had unwittingly invited into their organization.

Once Han Cai had left, they immediately contacted their spies to verify the information he had provided about the Azure Messenger and Xue Lian. They soon learned that it was indeed true.

Without any further hesitation, the council members and the leader of Shadow Lotus took the sacred Dao oath and signed a contract with Han Cai. The contract stated that Han Cai would eliminate all other organizations in the Daxing Continent, and in return, they would watch over the Sky Soaring Sect and the Han Family for the next ten thousand years, serving as their protectors and ancestors.

Over the next few months, the Daxing continent was engulfed in chaos as the Crimson Serpents and the Aurelian Dragons engaged in fierce battles, relentlessly seeking revenge for their respective losses of a Spirit Harmony Realm Immortal. Neither faction was willing to back down or offer any concessions to the other, which only further fueled their animosity.

As the conflict escalated, both factions launched brutal attacks on each other's strongholds, cities, and territories, causing widespread devastation and leaving behind a trail of destruction in their wake. Their continuous battles left no corner of the Daxing continent untouched, and the scale of the conflict became increasingly alarming.

Caught in the crossfire, the cities and resources of other organizations suffered immense collateral damage. Their once-thriving cities were reduced to rubble, and the disruption to their economies threatened their very survival. The Shadow Lotus, Silent Ravens, and Iron Talons, who were also affected by this ongoing strife, could no longer bear the consequences of the Crimson Serpents and the Aurelian Dragons' unrestrained aggression.

Realizing that the situation had grown untenable and that the entire Daxing continent was at risk of being plunged into a state of irreversible chaos, the leaders of the Shadow Cloud, Silent Ravens, and Iron Talons decided to take matters into their own hands. They recognized that the only way to restore peace and stability to the continent was to intervene and initiate peace talks between the warring factions.

United in their cause, these three organizations reached out to the Crimson Serpents and the Aurelian Dragons, urging them to cease hostilities and come to the negotiating table. Their ultimate goal was to broker a truce and establish a foundation for lasting peace, which would not only benefit the warring factions themselves but also bring much-needed relief to the entire Daxing continent.

The meeting location was chosen within the territory of the Iron Talons.

Iron Talons were the neutral organization that had no affiliation or enmity with either of the feuding groups. The city where the meeting would take place was emptied of its regular inhabitants, leaving only members of the Iron Talons behind. The meeting was scheduled for the first day of summer.

As summer approached, representatives from various organizations began arriving in the city. Soon, the once-empty streets teemed with members of different factions.

The first to arrive was Guan Yuwen, a Spirit Harmony Realm cultivator from the Iron Talons, tasked with ensuring the success of the peace talks.

Next to arrive was Hua Yufeng, leader of the Silent Ravens and a Spirit Harmony Realm cultivator. The third to arrive was Law Immortal Zhu Tianming of the Crimson Serpents.

Fourth to arrive was Yun Qinghong from shadow lotus.

The final arrival was the Silver Emperor, Xue Zhenwu, of the Aurelian Dragons.

The meeting was scheduled for the late evening in the main building of the city.

As morning dawned, Yun Qinghong sat in his room, gazing at the sky through the window. With a sigh, he rolled up his sleeve, revealing red symbols etched into his skin.

He spoke," system to remove the protective talismans that hid me from divinations".

Slowly, the symbols vanished from his skin one by one, leaving only a few remaining.

Grand Diviner Xiong, who had been tormented for days, suddenly regained his ability to sense the laws. As the heavenly secrets revealed themselves to him, his anger boiled over. Without hesitation, he flew towards the city where the source of his torment was located, as shown by the heavenly secrets.

Meanwhile, several million miles away from the city, a mysterious figure clad in a long, flowing robe stood in the sky. The figure's face was hidden behind a mask, revealing only his piercing red eyes. His mere presence was enough to send shivers down the spines of those who caught a glimpse of him.

The red figure turned towards the city where the peace talks were to be held and began flying in that direction.
