313 The Negotiation

When he saw the guards' attitude, Su Ming frowned, then turned around to look behind him.

Su Ming looked in the direction of Count Ottle and said slowly, “Sir count, do you have anything else to say to me?”

Hearing this, Count Ottle took a deep breath and narrowed his eyes.

“Don't you think that your current style of doing things is a little too arrogant? It doesn't matter if I have the haoyan Kingdom or Duke Lincoln behind me. You don't have the right to act like this.”

When Count Ottle said this, his voice was full of threat.

Su Ming's expression did not change much when he heard those words, and he did not show the panic that Count Ottle expected.

He just raised his head and looked in the direction of Count Ottle.

“Oh, really? If you're really planning to do something rash, then I'll let you understand the consequences of being rash.”

“You need to know that my men are all near this stronghold. Furthermore, your people will definitely not be able to restrain them.”

“Before I came, I gave them an order. As long as I don't walk out of here, they'll split up.”

After a slight pause, Su Ming looked at Count Ottle's increasingly unpleasant expression, but he did not stop talking.

“One of them will return to our tribe and report the situation here. I think that not long after, the people from my tribe will attack this place, or simply Duke Lincoln's fief.”

“On the other side, someone will go to the haoyan Kingdom and approach your respected King to inform Duke Lincoln of his recent movements and intentions.”

“You don't have to doubt whether we have the ability to do so. After all, you've spent so much time trying to find us, and we even showed up on our own accord.”

Su Ming's words were loud and clear, but at the same time, his expression was incredibly calm.

His appearance made Count Ottle even more anxious.

He took a deep breath and fixed his gaze on Su Ming, who was standing before him.

“It seems like there's nothing to talk about between us, right?”

Su Ming shrugged his shoulders. Even now, he had not taken Count Ottle's threat to heart.

Because he knew from the beginning that a person like Count Ottle would never fall out with him over this matter.

The two reasons he had just mentioned were precisely the reason why Count Ottle was in trouble.

His reaction also made Su Ming even more certain of the guess he had made before.

Duke Lincoln did indeed have the intention of rebelling and usurping the throne of the vast flame Kingdom.

When he thought of this, Su Ming's expression became even calmer. He fixed his gaze in Count Ottle's direction.

Under Su Ming's intense gaze, Count Ottle did not say a single word for a long time.

In the end, he took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth, “Alright, I can treat this matter as if it never happened.”

“We won't do anything to you in the future, but…”

Count Ottle suddenly changed the topic, and his tone became more firm.

“You must tell us where your tribe is. Only then will we agree to the conditions you just proposed.”

Count Ottle's words made it seem like he had already made concessions to Su Ming.

Yet even after Su Ming heard his words, his expression remained unmoved.

“That's impossible.”

Su Ming's voice was straightforward, and it made Count Ottle's expression, which had just begun to improve, instantly sink back to the bottom.

“What do you mean by that? Could it be that you're really planning to shed all pretenses of cordiality?”

Su Ming cast him a glance and said, “I've made my stance clear from the start. I don't want you to find us because our tribe doesn't want to have too much contact with you.”

“As for the meaning of your request, I'm sure you're well aware of it.”

“So, you don't need to mention these things anymore.”

Hearing this, Count Ottle's eyes narrowed.

After this, the entire place fell into a long silence.

The atmosphere in the tent seemed to have frozen up after this.

After a moment of silence, Count Ottle could not help but speak again.

“I hope you won't be so stubborn. This will only lead to regret.”

Su Ming only chuckled softly.

“My conditions and bottom line are right here. It's up to you if you want to abide by them.”

“You can finish me off here, but you have to be clear about the consequences of doing so.”

Su Ming knew very well that Count Ottle…or rather, the Noble Duke Lincoln behind him was completely under his control.

Under such circumstances, it was impossible for her to make Su Ming give in.

Just like what he had just said, if he really made a concession and told the other party the location of the Elf Valley…

It was hard to say if Duke Lincoln, who wanted to ensure that his thoughts and plans would not be exposed, would do something crazy.

During the development period of the Elf Valley, such a huge risk was absolutely not allowed.

That was why it was impossible for Su Ming to agree to his conditions.

Su Ming's firm tone instantly caused the atmosphere in the hall to freeze once again.

The gazes of both parties met in the air, and it seemed as if some baleful aura was slowly emerging.

Count Ottle's expression also slowly changed during this process.

But in the end, he couldn't harden his heart.

After taking a deep breath, Count Ottle stared at Su Ming before him and said in a deep voice, “I agree to your conditions.”

“But you have to promise that you will never appear here again.”

“If you don't agree, we can mobilize our troops at any time to search for your traces and completely destroy you!”

Count Ort's ruthless words made Mike, who was standing beside Su Ming, frown. The expression on his face also became slightly displeased.

However, Su Ming did not have much of a reaction. He only nodded and said, “Sure.”

Once he finished speaking, Su Ming did not say anything else. He turned around and walked out of the tent.

Count Ottle waved his hand. This time, the guards at the door did not stop Su Ming and Mike.

Once they left the tent, Su Ming and Mike went straight to the previous stronghold.

The group had already made a promise a long time ago that once they saw Su Ming leave safely, they would gather at their original stronghold.
