<h4>Chapter 635: The Giant-sized Jiang Tian''ai</h4>
Amidst the surprised exmations, a figure about ten feet tall swiftly rushed to Fang Chen, looking at him with eyes full of nostalgia.
The remaining seven or eight Giant Immortal Sect cultivators were slightly startled and exchanged puzzled nces with each other. However, they made no move to stand up, as they did not believe anyone would dare act against the disciples of the Giant Immortal Sect in this ce.
Qi Jian''s brows furrowed. "What’s going on?"
He knew that while this female cultivator from the Giant Immortal Sect had a low cultivation level, she was a key figure in this team with a very mysterious background. Even he didn’t know much about her origins. Now, it seemed she was familiar with the cultivators from the Langya n.
<i>Wouldn''t this affect the situation...?</i>
Qi Jian gradually calmed down. <i>It shouldn’t be a problem; this matter is being directed by the Ninth Prince, so it should be fine. Nothing could go wrong.</i>
"The Langya n’s people recognize cultivators from the Giant Immortal Sect?"
"It seems they’ve put a lot of effort into this...."
"Perhaps the results of this negotiation...."
The leaders of the major ns exchanged nces and began to ponder the implications.
The Qin and Wei n elders frowned in unison. Seeing Qi Jian’sck of reaction, they felt reassured.
On the Langya n''s side, their surprise was even greater. They stared in shock at the ten-foot-tall female cultivator radiating the aura of the Golden Core Realm.
She was clearly referring to Fang Chen when she said "Sir Fang."
That was Langya Wenqiu’s senior brother!
Langya Wenqiu was astonished. She asked, "Senior Brother Fang, do you know her?"
Fang Chen looked up, his face wreathed in curiosity. "You are...?"
"Sir Fang, it’s me, Jiang Tian’ai!" Jiang Tian’ai quickly replied. "I’ve cultivated the Giant Immortal Sect’s techniques, so I have be quite big. Don’t you recognize me?"
"Not only are you bigger now, but you have reached Golden Core Realm, too," replied Fang Chen.
Fang Chen thought it strange. He had already recognized Jiang Tian’ai but wasn’t entirely sure. Once, she had been a small girl barely reaching his waist, driven out by the Jue Family and trapped in dire straits. Now, she had be ten feet tall and reached the Golden Core Realm. She had obviously been heavily nurtured by the Giant Immortal Sect or had experienced some great fortune.
It had only been two or three decades, after all.
"Sir Fang, I always wanted toe back and find you. Later, I returned to Grand Qian and heard that you had sacrificed your lifespan! I was so scared at the time. Onlyter did I learn that you were not dead but had left Grand Qian. I never expected to see you here," Jiang Tian’ai said, her eyes reddening with tears that fell likerge droplets,nding right on Langya Wenqiu’s head.
Caught off guard, Langya Wenqiu wordlessly took a few steps back with an odd expression.
Everyone was shocked by Jiang Tian’ai’s appearance. Their eyes turned to Fang Chen, and many in the crowd felt a tremor in their hearts upon seeing him.
"Daoist Fang!?"
Chu Lan could hardly believe that she would meet Fang Chen here in such a manner.
The Qin Family head nced at Chu Lan with a strange expression and sent a message through voice transmission, "<i>Is that the cultivator from the Grand Thousand Dao Sect?</i>"
Chu Lan did not respond but stared nkly at Fang Chen.
On the other side, Qi Fa, who was bored and nning to find an excuse to go out and have a look around after the negotiation, also noticed Fang Chen. His eyes widened in shock. "Why is it him!?"
The Qin Family Ancestor frowned slightly. "It’s him...."
He remembered this person, as he was the one who had taken the Three Sr Fruit from Qin Nie. After Qin Nie disappeared, he suspected this matter might be rted to him, but he had no time to investigate and nned to send someone to look into it after the conflict between the Qin and Langya ns was resolved. He didn’t expect to see him here. Furthermore, it seemed he had an unusual rtionship with the Giant Immortal Sect.
Langya Da Zhao and others wore peculiar expressions. "His background is indeed extraordinary."
The Langya n’s old ancestor was momentarily stunned, but his eyes gradually warmed with a smile.
An unexpected variable had emerged. Regardless of how much influence this variable had on the negotiations, it was at least beneficial for the Langya n.
"Are you doing well in the Giant Immortal Sect?" Fang Chen asked after a brief silence, faintly smiling.
Jiang Tian’ai nodded vigorously. "Yes, Master treats me very well, and even Sister Shen Ji is very kind to me."
Fang Chen nodded gently. "That’s good to hear."
Jiang Tian’ai was no longer the innocent girl she used to be. Seeing that Fang Chen was with the Langya n’s cultivators, she immediately made up her mind. "Prefect Qi, let’s just forget about the three cups of punishment."
Everyone turned their gaze toward Qi Jian.
After pondering for a moment, Qi Jian smiled and said, "That was just a joke. You don’t have to take it seriously."
Jiang Tian’ai nodded in relief. "Good."
She invited Fang Chen and the others to sit next to the Giant Immortal Sect. Naturally, the ancestor of Langya n dly agreed.
Qi Jian had no choice but to rearrange the seating arrangements that had been made earlier.
Fang Chen sat beside Jiang Tian’ai. The contrast between their sizes was striking—now seated together, the difference was even more pronounced.
One of the Giant Immortal Sect cultivators scrutinized Fang Chen for a moment, a thoughtful expression in her eyes.
The Qin Family head could no longer hold back and sent a message through voice transmission. "<i>Chu Lan, the person you brought back... is from the Langya n. Why exactly is he here? Why did he help you retrieve the Three Sr Fruit?</i>"
"How would I know? All I know is that he saved Feng’er’s life," Chu Lan replied as she rolled her eyes.
She was simrly confused. However, she believed Fang Chen hadn’t been hostile toward her back then.
Qi Jian shifted his gaze away from Fang Chen and the others and looked at everyone present. "Since everyone is here, let’s begin discussing the matter at hand."

"Prefect Qi, I must reiterate that if you want us to cease hostilities, the Langya n must provide us with a satisfactory exnation," said the Qin Family head slowly. "Not only does the exnation need to satisfy us, but it must also satisfy all the ns involved. After all, many cultivators have died, and a lot of spirit stones have been consumed due to this conflict."
"Yes, it must satisfy all of us," another voice echoed.
"If the Langya n does not offerpensation, we will not stop," several n leaders agreed, including the Ancestor of the Wei n.
Qi Jian looked at Langya Shi’s Ancestor with a faint smile. "Langya Xing Zhou, you’ve heard everyone’s stance. Now it’s up to you to show your attitude."
The Langya n’s cultivators were seething with anger. They were clearly in a position of advantage. If Qi Jian had not intervened, the situation would not have turned out this way.
Langya Shi’s Ancestor scanned the crowd indifferently. "Let’s cut to the chase. Say whatever you want directly. If I can provide it, I will; if not, we’ll discuss it further."
"Ancestor!" Langya Da Zhao and others urged anxiously.
Langya Ancestor shook his head at his people. "You don’t have to persuade me. The Langya n has never coveted the territory of the Immortal Qin n. If making some concessions can end this war, it can be considered a great merit."
The Qin Family head’s eyes shifted. He smiled and said, "Since you’re so straightforward, I’ll be straightforward too. Here’s what I want: Firstly, theplete Dao Orthodoxy of the Langya n. Secondly, two-thirds of your territory. Thirdly, 2000 mid-grade spirit stones. Lastly, 400,000 low-grade spirit stones.
"If you can meet these four demands, we will not make things difficult for you."
