"Hey, our friendship is life-threatening, so why are you so polite? Just come and join me! Come with me, I've already prepared a banquet for you!"

King Xifeng came over and hugged Qu Jing very familiarly...\nＣＯＭ

As they walked, the two princes also introduced everyone around them.

Since Ye Liuyun didn't show his level, he walked with Qu Wanying again, so King Xifeng and others didn't pay much attention to him.

King Xifeng also arranged for someone to take Wen Chenggang to arrange a camp location for the army.

But when they entered the banquet hall, they were shocked by how tempting it was.

In the banquet hall, twenty martial arts cultivators at the Heavenly Realm stood neatly on both sides. The pressure they unleashed made it difficult for everyone to even step forward.

King Xifeng pretended to wave his hand, asking these people to put down their pressure and invite Qu Jing and others to come in.

"Don't mind, these are all death row prisoners I bought before and signed soul contracts with them.

It’s really because of them that I can ensure the safety of my territory!”

King Xifeng explained to them.

But what he did was obviously to give Qu Jing and others a warning and warn them not to act recklessly.

Qu Jing smiled awkwardly and didn't say anything.

He didn't have any other ideas at first, so he didn't take it to heart.

During the dinner, King Xifeng pretended to chat with Qu Jing again, saying that their resources were not rich recently.

Their veins have been mined to the outer layer of fire crystals, and they can no longer move forward!

The temperature of the fire crystal veins is high and difficult to mine. The implication is that there are no resources to accommodate Qujing's 200,000 troops.

Qu Jing also understood what he meant. Not only did he hand over the preparations for the 400,000 troops they had just captured, he also added a lot of resources he had accumulated.

King Xifeng shamelessly pretended to refuse for a moment and then put it all away.

"Well, although there are a lot of these resources, they are not a long-term solution after all! Brother Qu, I have a way to obtain resources, you can try it!"

King Xifeng suggested again.

"Appreciate further details!"

Although Qu Jing was dissatisfied, he still listened patiently.

"You can let the soldiers collect fire crystals in exchange for resources! There is no war here, and the soldiers are idle when they are idle. It is better to let them be self-reliant."

Xifeng King stated his intention.

Qu Jing thought about it and felt that it made sense, so that they could continue to develop in the long run.

"As for the mining share, I don't ask for much. I only charge 70%. How about you keep the remaining 30% for yourself?"

King Xifeng talked to him about the division of income again.

Ye Liuyun relied on the temperature here to know that the temperature in the fire crystal veins must be extremely high and mining must be very difficult.

And Xifeng King asked for 70% of it with just one mouthful.

I'm afraid the remaining 30% won't be enough to make up for the losses.

Qu Jing apparently also considered the danger of the fire crystal veins, negotiated with King Xifeng, and negotiated a split of 40 to 60 points, asking for 10% more.

King Xifeng finally agreed, but asked Qujing to mine at least two million fire crystals every day.

If the quantity is not enough, at least he must ensure that the number of 1.2 million fire crystals that belongs to him cannot be less.

Qu Jing calculated that with 200,000 soldiers, each of them would only need to mine ten fire crystals per day on average to complete the task, so he felt that it was not too difficult and finally agreed.

King Xifeng laughed heartily, as if his evil plan had succeeded.

That night, when Qu Jing and others returned to the temporary camp, Wen Chenggang complained: "They used the lack of space as an excuse to divide our army into four parts and place them separately. This is obviously a mean-spirited attempt to judge a gentleman."

.

Afraid that we would rebel against him!"

Qu Wanying also said: "It's hypocritical to say that we are dead brothers! This Xifeng King has taken our resources and wants us to mine. He is not entertaining guests. He clearly wants us to work as coolies for him."

!”

"Okay!"

Qu Jing spoke up and stopped their complaints.

"At least we have a place to stay.

At least we are safe here!"

he said to the others.

"Not necessarily!"

Ye Liuyun had doubts in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud.

King Xifeng asked Qujing to agree to the mining and divided his army.

In this way, even if Qujing goes back on his word, these armies will be relatively easy to control.

At that time, these 200,000 people will become slaves mining for King Xifeng!

At least in Ye Liuyun's view, Xifeng King's various performances today are quite illustrative.

He can definitely do this kind of thing!

"How many people are there in King Xifeng's army?"

Ye Liuyun asked Wen Chenggang seemingly casually.

When he went out to arrange the camp, he learned about the number of people in Xifeng King's army.

"Four hundred thousand! And they are all stationed outside our perimeter.

Every one of our 50,000-strong army camps is monitored by 100,000 troops outside!"

Wen Chenggang said dissatisfied.

"Then they can destroy us at any time?"

Qu Wanying also became angry.

Ye Liuyun even vaguely guessed the intention of King Xifeng.

Qu Jing also felt something strange: "Let's see the situation of the fire crystal veins tomorrow.

If it doesn’t work, we’ll leave here and find another place! You all go down and rest!”

Hearing this, Qu Wanying and Wen Chenggang stopped complaining.

Because if they leave here, they will be hunted down by the empire.

So in comparison, I feel that it doesn’t matter if I endure it!

So they went to rest separately, leaving only Ye Liuyun untouched.

"Is there something wrong, Mr. Ye?"

Qu Jing asked in confusion.

Seeing that he was not alert to King Xifeng's intentions, Ye Liuyun couldn't help but remind him:

"What if King Xifeng's original intention was to have your army work as miners for him?

I’m afraid you can’t leave even if you want to leave now!”

"This...can't be right?

If I were him, I would also take some precautionary measures to prevent it.

It's just that he acted more openly and seemed to be greedy for money..." Qu Jing was still making excuses for King Xifeng.

"hope so!"

Ye Liuyun didn't argue with him, he had already reminded him anyway.

If his guess is really correct, it will be a good thing for him, and he can steal resources openly.

Before Ye Liuyun left, he once again reminded Qu Jing to be optimistic about Qu Wanying, so as not to be used as a hostage to threaten him.

Although Qu Jing felt that Ye Liuyun thought of people too evilly.

But he still treasured his daughter very much. Not only did he send troops to strengthen the guard that night, he also moved to keep watch outside Qu Wanying's tent.

That night, Ye Liuyun's spiritual consciousness discovered that two martial arts cultivators at the Heavenly Realm secretly entered the military camp and touched near Qu Wanying's residence.

But when he found that there were more soldiers outside and Qu Jing was there, he didn't dare to take action and retreated secretly.
