<h4>Chapter 630: Cloud tform Negotiation</h4>


    <i>Qi Manor Prefect?</i>


    The surrounding Nascent Soul Realm cultivators showed expressions of shock and whispered, “Thirddy, has the Prefect intervened in this matter?”


    Fang Chen was not surprised. The Qin n’s ancestors and the Qi Manor Prefect had always coveted the Langya n’s Dao inheritance. With the Qin n’s forces failing, the Qi Manor Prefect had no choice but to intervene.

    “Yes,” Langya Wenqiu confirmed, her face grim. “The ancestors have sent word that the Qi Manor Prefect is waiting at a Cloud tform on the border for both sides toe for negotiations. The results of these negotiations are likely to be very unfavorable to our Langya n.”


    “It’s strange. Why would the Manor Prefect intervene now? He had chosen to turn a blind eye and allowed the Qin n to attack us from the beginning. He shouldn’t have stepped in at this point,” a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator said, frowning.


    The Central Continent had its own rules, and the Manor Prefect represented the official’s stance. If he didn’t handle the situation fairly, it could lead to criticism within the court. The Langya n is not a minor yer; they also had connections with some influential figures within the court. Wouldn’t the Manor Prefect fear that the Langya n might report him?


    “Thirddy, what should we do? If the Manor Prefect gets involved, we might have to give up the territory we fought so hard to secure. All our efforts could be in vain,” a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator said with a bitter smile.


    The Langya n had suffered casualties during this period, and conducting a major war had consumed a significant amount of their resources. After just a few months, the expenditure of spirit stones and pills was enormous. If they could conquer the Qin n, it would not only recover these losses but also yield a profit.


    But if they stopped halfway, they’d never be able to recover their losses, much less make a profit.


    “The ancestors mentioned that the Qi Manor Prefect has invited the heads of a hundred factions. Besides the Qin n and the Langya n, the leaders of other factions will also attend the negotiation. No matter what, I must go. My presence might still make them wary,” Langya Wenqiu said with a sigh.


    Then, she suddenly looked at Fang Chen with a pleading expression. “Senior Brother Fang, could you apany me? I’m just a small Golden Core Realm cultivator, and I feel uneasy facing those esteemed seniors alone.”


    The Nascent Soul Realm cultivators'' spirits lifted. “Yes!”


    With an additional Void Immortal Sword Sect’s disciple, the Qi Manor Prefect might be more cautious.


    “Alright,” Fang Chen agreed without any hesitation.


    Langya Wenqiu was overjoyed and immediately started preparing for the journey to the border. Within half an hour, an Immortal Boat rose into the sky, carrying hundreds of cultivators at high speed.


    On the deck of the Immortal Boat


    “Senior Brother Fang, I’ve just contacted several senior brothers and sisters from the Extreme Sword Peak. They said they would alsoe to support me, so this trip should be fine,” Langya Wenqiu said, putting away the Transmission Talisman and looking at Fang Chen with delight.


    “That’s good,” Fang Chen said with a smile.


    If the Void Immortal Sword Sect could send a few more disciples, it could indeed put pressure on the other side, potentially causing the war to dissolve without further conflict.


    However, that wasn’t very likely to happen unless high-ranking members of the Void Immortal Sword Sect made an appearance. Furthermore, they had to have a Dao Union Realm cultivator apanying them as well to stabilize the situation.


    The Qi Manor Prefect seemed to be cooperating with the Qin n''s ancestor, but in reality, he was serving the Ninth Son of the Nine Generation King. The Nine Generations King’s Manor was an Immortal Court power and would not necessarily give face to a few juniors from the Void Immortal Sword Sect.


    At this moment, the Killing Spiritual Division’s token heated up


    Fang Chen focused his mind and slowly tuned in.


    <i>The turmoil in the Azure Manor will cease in a month</i>


    <i>Great, the Spirit Blood Sect will suffer another setback this time.</i>


    <i>I heard that the Azure Dao Prefect has arranged for heads of a hundred factions to negotiate at the border between the Qin n and Langya n. Which senior from the Killing Spiritual Division is responsible for applying pressure?</i>


    <i>Don’t ask too much. As long as the matter is resolved, that’s good. I’ve almost been caught up in the conflict between the two factions.</i>


    Several messages came in, indicating that many Killing Spiritual Division cultivators had arrived at the Azure Dao Manor during this period, likely with the same purpose as Fang Chen.


    <i>A monthter... ceasefire... This message seems to carry an undeniable tone. I wonder which powerful figure will make an appearance?</i> Fang Chen thought, curious and somewhat looking forward to it.


    This powerful figure would most likely show up during the negotiations. If Fang Chen attended, he could identify the senior responsible for intervening.


    As time passed, in just over twenty days, the Immortal Boat flew day and night and finally arrived at a mountain range perpetually shrouded in thick clouds and mist.


    At the highest point of the mountain, there was a naturally formed tform that seemed to coexist with the clouds and mist, as if one could reach out and touch them.


    “Lord Fang, we have arrived at the Cloud tform,” an elderly woman said as she approached Fang Chen with a courteous expression.


    The elderly woman exuded an aura that reached thete-stage Enlightenment realm, significantly stronger than the elders of the Parting Fiery Dao Sect. She was the true guardian assigned by the Langya n to protect Langya Wenqiu.


    The fact that a Golden Core Realm cultivator like Langya Wenqiu was protected by ate stage Enlightenment Realm guardian showed just how much the Langya n valued her.


    “Grandma Li, please take care of my sect’s disciples while they are here. After all, many in the Azure Dao Manor harbor hostility toward the Grand Thousand Dao Sect,” Fang Chen said with a smile and a respectful bow.


    Grandma Li smiled and nodded. “Don’t worry, Lord Fang. They will be safe on the boat. If they wish to visit the Cloud tform, I will also send someone to apany them. With Langya n''s cultivators present, other factions will show some respect and won’t dare to provoke them easily.”


    “Thank you,” Fang Chen replied with a nod.


    At that moment, Langya Wenqiu had finished her preparations and waved to Fang Chen. “Senior Brother Fang, let’s disembark.”


    Soon, the two of them, apanied by Grandma Li and several Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, arrived at the Cloud tform.


    A Golden Core Realm cultivator from Langya n approached Pei Qingfeng and the others with great courtesy. “Daoist Pei, would you and the others like to remain on the Immortal Boat for cultivation, or would you prefer to visit the Cloud tform?”


    Pei Qingfeng looked around with curiosity. “I wonder, what is so special about this Cloud tform?”


    Elder Xu and the others also gazed at the Cloud tform with interest, wondering why such an important negotiation was being held here. Surely, there had to be something extraordinary about it.


    “It is that two First Rate Sect Leaders had once used this tform to discuss the Dao,” the guide shared. “Since then, many cultivators havee here, hoping to gain insights into the Dao of Immortality.”


    The group’s spirits were lifted. “Such a legendary story? First Rate Sect Leader level?”


    Pei Qingfeng immediately said, “There is no need for formality. We would like to take a walk around, about an hour should be sufficient.”


    “Daoist Pei, there is no need to be polite. Please follow me,” the guide responded.


    At the same time, a group approached Fang Chen and the others. The men walked with amanding presence, exuding an aura in the Enlightenment Realm, while the women, though not Enlightenment Realm, were also Nascent Soul Realm cultivators.


    Among them was a young man who looked very simr to Langya Wenqiu, and was also a Golden Core cultivator.


    “Father, Mother, Second Brother!” Langya Wenqiu eximed with joy.


    Her family members smiled warmly. Their eyes swept over Langya Wenqiu and then settled on Fang Chen, with a hint of satisfaction in their gaze.
