"It's very normal. The dragon race knows that Ao Longyu has become a Goddess.
And the Goddess of the Jade Pool is extremely important to Kunlun.
At first, they did not send anyone over as they wanted us to experience the benefits of having a Goddess for the Jade Pool.
After we have gotten used to the better cultivation environment, they will then ask for her to go back.
By doing so, they will leave a huge impact on Kunlun," said Liu Jing, the Second Summit Summit Leader.
He was a very young-looking man, dressed in white and looked extremely handsome.
But everyone knew that he was the oldest among them.
"It's impossible for us to hand Ao Longyu over to the Dragon Race. However, Longyu does belong to the Dragon Race. If they want to bring her back the Dragon Palace to exchange with another dragon, we can't reject them either," said Third Summit's Zhu Qing.
Her face held a frown.
On the surface, the Dragon Race's request was not excessive. They merely wanted a member of their race back.
But the situation currently was rather special.
"That may seem to be the case, but the Dragon race will not really fight with us just to get her back." First Summit's Feng Yixiao looked at the others and said.
"We can't hand over the Goddess.
However, we will need to give an explaination to the Dragon Race. "
"Explanation?
What do you think they want?" Jiu Zhongtian asked.
"The Dragon Race is waging war against the demons. They only want some benefits. They will not force Ao Longyu to return. Saying that another dragon will come is just to scare us.
The main goal of sending Ao Longyu to Kunlun was never for cultivation purposes.
It would be of no use for them to trade a member of the Dragon Race for our Jade Pool Goddess.
And they don't want to start a war with us.
Therefore, this matter is actually very simple. "Fifth Summit's Miao Yue said.
Miao Yue was the Fifth Summit's Summit Leader and a veil covered her face. Her hair was long and fell to her waist.
She looked like a young lady.
She was pure and quiet.
The Third Summit was filled with female cultivators because Zhu Qing did not like men.
The Fifth Summit however, had the most balanced ratio between men and women.
The Ninth Summit, on other hand, was a stark contrast to the Third Summit.
There were only male disciples on the Ninth Summit.
And the center of their discussion now was on the matter of the Dragon Race wanting to take back Ao Longyu.
As the Kunlun's Jade Pool Goddess, Ao Longyu couldn't possibly be taken back.
Therefore, they needed countermeasures to deal with the "unreasonable" dragons.
"The Goddess is indeed part of the Dragon Race. We are on the losing ground when we start our negotiation. This is indeed very troublesome," said Jiu Zhongtian.
Although Ao Longyu was a disciple of Kunlun, she was also a member of the Dragon Race.
Furthermore, her identity in the Dragon Race was not simple either.
Thus, the Dragon Race could make a ruckus out of this.
"However, she is the only Goddess in all these years," Zhu Qing said.
No matter what, Kunlun only had one goddess.
No one could refute this fact.
"The identity of the Goddess is not important for now. What's important is how to deal with the Dragon Race," said Second Summit's Liu Jing.
"The dragons are easy to deal with. We just need to give them something they want, but there's one part that's the most troublesome." Feng Yixiao looked at the others and said,
"We can't be sure if the Dragon Race will repeatedly find trouble with this matter even if we manage to appease them this time round.
Therefore, what they needed to discuss now was how to completely bind the Goddess to Kunlun.
By doing so, the Dragon Race can no longer argue about wanting her back in the future."
"It's not a problem for Kunlun to pay some price. After all, the Goddess was indeed brought here by the Dragon Race.
Kunlun is still the biggest beneficiary.
But howcan we tie the Dragon Princess to Kunlun?
This is what's difficult.
Or perhaps it can be said to be almost impossible, "said Second Summit's Liu Jing.
"It's indeed very difficult as the dragons aren't that close to us.
However, they don't want to fall out with us either.
The Demon Race has tried to provoke conflict between us and the Dragon Race several times.
Even when Ao Longyu was faced with many dangers, the Dragon Race remained silent throughout.
The Dragon Race's bottom line should be lower than we think.
So as long as the method is right, making Ao Longyu stay in Kunlun might be possible." Miao Yue said.
"If it's about directly harming Ao Longyu, I will not agree with it.
The Goddess' condition is directly related to the Jade Pool.
You all should understand this, "Zhu Qing said.
"I don't think so." Feng Yi smiled at everyone.
"Have you guys thought of a very simple and gentle solution?
As long as it succeeds, we can tie Ao Longyu to Kunlun forever.
Or perhaps, as long as we succeed, we will no longer be restricted by the Dragon Race. "
Everyone looked towards Feng Yixiao.
They had no idea what Feng Yixiao was talking about.
"A gentle method?" Jiu Zhongtian asked.
"It's very gentle and doesn't require the slightest bit of fighting." Feng Yixiao said.
"What is it?" Zhu Qing asked.
Such a gentle method seemed impossible.
"Have you guys ever thought about… marriage?" Feng Yixiao said calmly.
"After marriage, regardless of which family the Goddess gets married to, she would be considered to be part of us already.
The dragons will then have no right to question about her wherabouts and actions.
Even if they have the right to ask, we will be able to give a good answer."
"A marriage alliance?" Zhu Qing was surprised.
"With whom?"
"Summit Leaders are the most suitable." Feng Yixiao said with a smile.
Pa!
Zhu Qing clapped her hands and said.
"What a beast.
You guys are already so old, yet you still have intentions of marrying a kid."
"Looks like Junior Sister dosen't object," said Second Summit's Liu Jing.
Zhu Qing: "…"
"It is indeed a good idea, this way, Kunlun will have a reason to participate and we will no longer be passive." Fifth Summit's Miao Yue agreed to this plan.
"Senior sister." Zhu Qing called out to Miao Yue.
This idea was too ridiculous.
"Junior Sister, don't worry. The Dragon Race won't agree either.
Old bones like them have no chance of success.
We need someone else. "Miao Yue consoled softly.
The others didn't speak and tacitly agreed with Miao Yue.
Yes, they had no face to do such a thing.
Especially since Ao Longyu was really too young.
"Then who should we find?" Jiu Zhongtian asked.
He was asking Miao Yue.
Although Feng Yixiao proposed this plan, it didn't mean that he had a good choice in mind.
"It must be someone important in Kunlun. The best choice is not necessarily the Summit Leaders of the various summits.
But the successors of the various summits.
If it is a future Summit Leader who is marrying a dragon princess, the Dragon Race can't reject us even if they want to." Miao Yue looked at the others, her eyes filled with killing intent.
"If they dare to say no, we shall have a fight with them."
"It seems like getting the Dragon Race to agree also requires a huge price," said Jiu Zhongtian.
"It's better to pay them all at once than for them to come every time," Feng Yixiao said.
"It's indeed feasible, but what about the candidates?
It's impossible for each summit to have an accurate candidate now." Second Summit's Liu Jing asked.
Yes, no matter which summit it was, they had many choices when it came to the summit's successors.
Most importantly, they could live for a long time.
It would take a long time before they would retire and enter seclusion.
"Actually, it's not like there's no suitable candidate." Zhu Qing thought of something and looked towards the corner.
At this moment, everyone remembered. Then, they looked towards the Ninth Summit's Summit Leader, Mo Zhengdong, who had remained silent in the corner.
Mo Zhengdong met their gazes and felt helpless.
"Jiang Lan… Is still young.
Furthermore, as a member of the Dragon Race, Ao Longyu is still a child, right? "Mo Zhengdong asked.
"Senior brother, just tell me if you intend to let the only disciple of the Ninth Summit inherit the Ninth Summit.
The rest can be dealt with by us." Fifth Summit's Miao Yue asked.
