Chapter 153
Gu Chen's words were powerful and resonant, filled with incomparable determination and ruthlessness.
The hearts of the various sect leaders were in a mess. What kind of lunatic was this?
That murderous aura, which seemed to be real, could not be faked. If Alliance Master Chou really intended to go head-on, the entire Whale Alliance would have to pay a painful price!
"Alliance Leader Qiu, let's take a step back. Sect Leader Chen is only fighting for the Heavenly Star Sect's benefits."
Zhou Sen of White Bone Sect said solemnly.
"There's no need for things to escalate to this extent. If we insist on starting a war today, our entire Whale Alliance will suffer losses."
Everyone's standpoint changed, and they all spoke up for Gu Chen.
Baijing Prefecture was a place where the strong preyed on the weak. Today, Gu Chen had used the most ruthless method to kidnap all of them onto a ship.
They couldn't do anything to him. Even if they hated him to the core, they had no choice but to obey.
Chou Feiyang saw that using Wei Chizhong to threaten him had no effect. His face turned red and green, and he was completely helpless.
This boy, he's so young, but why does he exude such a crazy ruthlessness when doing things!
After all, he was a person who cared about the big picture. Compared to his face, his own interests were more important.
Today, he originally wanted to take over the Blood Refinement Sect's share, but he didn't expect to meet an existence even more ruthless than him.
"You win."
He said weakly and let go of Yu Chizhong.
"Come in, let's discuss again."
With a single step, he returned to his original position, and the towering anger from before disappeared without a trace.
Half of his anger just now was just an act. He wanted to overwhelm Gu Chen with his imposing manner, but he didn't succeed, so he didn't want to continue pretending.
The purple in Gu Chen's eyes did not recede. He remained vigilant and returned to his position.
Seeing that the two of them were finally able to sit down and talk properly, the sect leaders of the various sects heaved a sigh of relief. Only then did they realize that they had broken out in cold sweat.
"Sect Leader Chen, I can understand how you feel, but next time, don't do something so thrilling."
The Sect Leader of the Demon Assimilation Sect said helplessly.
"We're all in the Whale Alliance, so we're all family. We can talk things out. There's no need to be so hostile."
The Sect Master of the Green Flame Sect also tried to persuade him with good intentions.
Gu Chen found it funny in his heart. Previously, they had been watching from the sidelines. Now that he had become ruthless, these people's attitudes had changed drastically.
Sure enough, taking risks was the right thing to do. Only by doing this could his Heavenly Star Sect obtain a good environment for development.
Everything he did before seemed crazy and dangerous, but Gu Chen had thought it through carefully.
That one-time forbidden talisman was found in the storage ring of the Huangfu Family's illegitimate son. That cowardly second generation had been frightened by him when they first met. Even until his death, he hadn't taken out such a useful protective talisman. In the end, it had been taken advantage of by him.
Since Gu Chen was attending the meeting with so many powerhouses and an immortal-level king, how could he not have a trump card?
With the forbidden talismans, as well as the various Profound Grade Spirit Talismans he had plundered from the storage rings of more than a hundred Nether God Palace assassins, he believed that even Chou Feiyang would be afraid of him.
Of course, he didn't want to use this trump card unless he had no other choice.
Not only would he lose a lot of wealth, but it would also not be good for the Heavenly Star Sect's situation.
This was the best outcome.
"You're right. I've been rude."
Since he had gotten what he wanted, Gu Chen immediately became humble.
Everyone could not help but smile wryly when they saw him like this. They thought that a young sect master would be easy to deal with, but they did not expect him to be a ruthless person.
Perhaps the negotiations at the Whale Alliance Conference would be even more tiring in the future.
"If there's no objection, the Heavenly Star Sect's 75% share is set."
Chou Feiyang was still angry, but he asked expressionlessly.
Everyone nodded. Nobody dared to offend Gu Chen, who was such a ruthless person. They even secretly gave him a nickname — Crazy Chen.
Seeing that everyone had agreed, Gu Chen finally smiled.
Behind him, Wei Chizhong was elated. Everything that had happened earlier was really dangerous. Now that he thought about it, he admired the sect master's courage even more.
Who dared to threaten the chief Chou like what he had just done?
"Since the Heavenly Star Sect's share has been set, I'll talk about mine. The Thunder Ray Sect wants 95%, no negotiation!"
Chou Feiyang found trouble with Gu Chen, and turned around to find face with the other sects.
The reason why he was willing to take a step back just now was for the so-called big picture.
Since these people wanted him to stop, they had to pay a price, right?
When everyone heard Chou Feiyang say "no negotiation", they immediately knew that they couldn't offend him on this matter.
As a dignified chief, he had to have some face.
Fortunately, if it was only 65%, it was acceptable for everyone to share it equally.
As for the Heavenly Star Sect's 75%, it would be deducted from the Blood Refinement Sect and the White Crane Sect!
Everyone quickly reached an agreement on the share.
In the end, the Thunder Ray Sect's share still increased this year, and the Heavenly Star Sect's share increased the most, taking a full 75%.
As for the other sects, the White Bone Sect, the Demon Transforming Sect, the Green Flame Sect, and the other veteran sects' shares had only decreased by a little. Considering that the White Whale Mansion's black market was becoming more and more prosperous, their interests were not damaged.
The ones who suffered the most were the small sects, but with the rise of the Heavenly Star Sect, there would be a reshuffle, so this loss was still within their acceptable range.
Other than the Blood Refinement Sect, the most miserable one was the White Crane Sect.
Lu Xianyun was practically in tears as he fought for a small share for his sect with great difficulty, and this share was not even a quarter of last year's!
He could only blame himself for offending the Heavenly Star Sect, and the big shots didn't want to lose themselves, so they could only use him as an example.
The meeting finally ended smoothly. The moment it ended, many people felt relieved.
Every year, the negotiations at the meeting would be filled with scheming and fighting, but it was rare to see something as thrilling as this year's.
Gu Chen got his share as he wished, so he planned to return to the Heavenly Star Sect. He had no interest in staying behind to socialize with the other sects.
"Chen Gu, do you think you've already won?"
When Gu Chen was about to leave, Chou Feiyang said coldly.
"Alliance Master Chou is too serious. I am not a competitive person."
Gu Chen said indifferently.
"Today, you relied on your ruthlessness to gain a foothold in the Whale Alliance, but there are people who are even more ruthless than you. You will soon experience it."
Chou Feiyang's face revealed ridicule.
"Could it be that Alliance Master Chou is unwilling to forgive this brat's previous rudeness?"
Gu Chen's expression turned solemn.
"It's not me. Naturally, someone will take care of you and tell you what it means to be the tallest tree in the forest, the wind will destroy it. "
Chou Feiyang smiled meaningfully, then turned around and left.
Gu Chen fell into deep thought.
On the way back to the Heavenly Star Sect, Wei Chi Zhong was still excited about what had happened in today's meeting. He was filled with admiration for Gu Chen.
As for Gu Chen, he did not say a single word from beginning to end.
Before he left, Chou Feiyang's words made him feel that something was amiss.
It was as if he had forgotten something important.
After a long time, a thought flashed through his mind, and his expression became gloomy.
"Old Zhong, I'm afraid we still have a tough battle to fight."
