Chapter 1023: Voting System, Negotiation Complete

Nangong Que, the Vermilion Bird ancestor, had finally spoken. Qin Xiao had to consider his reply carefully.

However, Qin Xiao was the type who would yield to kindness but not to force. After some thought, he formulated his reply.

“Senior, what is left to discuss? I have agreed to what you wanted. I am asking for nothing now. Surely even that is allowed?”

Qin Xiao spoke with a helpless expression.

“That is not what I mean. I mean the authority over offense and defense. Expecting us to obey you in everything is plainly unrealistic. Is there no other arrangement?”

Although Nangong Que was displeased, she was also helpless.

Currently, all formation materials had increased in price. Even if their two factions combined with all the forces of the Southern Region, they probably couldn’t gather so many Immortal Stones and resources. Qin Xiao was indispensable, but the authority Qin Xiao wanted was also excessive, and they were not willing to hand it all over to him.

The two forces were willing to concede some authority in return for his substantial contribution. But there were limits. Giving him sole control of their military offense and defense was out of the question.

“That’s right, Qin Xiao. This matter can be discussed, but you cannot simply dictate everything by yourself. This isn’t just a matter between our three factions; it concerns the entire Southern Region. Leaving it to any single person to decide alone is unwise. Think about it again. Isn’t there a better method? We are open to discussion.”

Seeing that Nangong Que had already shown an inclination to concede, Xia Qi followed up to add.

Qin Xiao understood. It seemed they weren’t completely unwilling to yield; they simply wanted him to make some concessions.

“If you wish to keep talking, then let us vote. Leaving every decision to me alone might indeed be unwise.”

Qin Xiao thought it over. Since a one-man rule system wouldn’t work, a voting system would have to suffice.
