Chapter 1646 - Thousands of Venerable Sovereigns
The Sacred Institute had once led all the races through the Era of Darkness and into new horizons. When it had outlived its usefulness, the Sacred Institute was abandoned.
Now, however, the current wisdom and most people’s instincts pointed to a new calamity coming. So, once again, all the races had decided to pin their hopes on the Sacred Institute.
What was different about the current situation was that the former Sacred Institute had gained its success step by step. However, the current Sacred Institute had been created from all the races’ wishful thinking in the face of the upcoming calamity, and it was really nothing more than a copy of the old one.
“Women are really untrustworthy.”
Not until he had heard about the Sacred Institute did Jiang Chen understand why Mrs. Yang had been behaving like she had. He had naively thought it was because of his infinite charm. In fact, Mrs. Yang hadn’t been lying to him. She wasn’t a slutty woman. She had only wanted to find a safe haven for herself.
Her husband had died on the Alien Battlefield, and therefore she’d lost any sense of protection ever since. As a single woman with a child, she had found herself targeted by greedy clansmen who wanted to rob them of their property, or to do even worse.
Jiang Chen’s abilities had been proven by everything that he had accomplished over the years.
Mrs. Yang’s demeanor got a little warmer. She frowned slightly. She was thinking.
“If the Sacred Institute forced the Heavenly Palace to agree with what it wanted simply for its own prestige, wouldn’t that go against its original intentions?” Jiang Chen seized the chance of her silence to speak.
He said, “Instead, if the Sacred Institute is just and fair and pays equal attention to all parties’ needs, even if the negotiation fails, it shouldn’t have anything to do with the Sacred Institute. And this is exactly what the Sacred Institute should aspire to.”
“No wonder you’ve got so many extremely pretty women. You are really eloquent.”
Mrs. Yang shook her head. She had been persuaded.
“You’re right, but there is one thing I need to confirm with you. Do you truly want to collaborate with the Sacred Institute or do you just want to take advantage of it?” Mrs. Yang showed that charming smile again. She was extremely beautiful.
“Are you going to offer me your full sincerity again?”
Jiang Chen was kind of worried that she would take off her clothes again.
“I don’t want to be refused twice in one day,” Mrs. Yang said in a soft voice. She came up to Jiang Chen in a sultry fashion.
However, she did nothing but gaze at Jiang Chen with amorous eyes.
Her face had not been affected by the passing of time at all. Her skin was so soft that it seemed as if it could be broken by a mere touch.
Jiang Chen knew what she meant. He gave her a gentle kiss on her red lips.
“That’s great.”
Mrs. Yang smiled happily. This kiss made her feel young again. She felt as though she was in love.
“Get prepared to deal with their anger,” Mrs. Yang said to him.
“I’ve been preparing for it.”
Then the two of them walked out of the Cloud Reaching Hall.
Mrs. Yang announced the Heavenly Palace’s proposal.
“Those are our Spiritual Lands. The Heavenly Palace wants 70 percent? And we’ll have to split the remaining 30 percent?”
As Mrs. Yang had predicted, the three teams flew into a rage.
However, they didn’t even have the time to express their anger, because the Devil Slaughter Tower rose again.
“You’d better not threaten me. Otherwise, with a slight shake of my hand, we’ll have no idea who’ll die,” said Jiang Chen.
Everyone who was standing on the plaza in front of the Heavenly Palace knew the fame of the Devil Slaughter Tower.
“You are not showing respect to the Sacred Institute. This was not what they were suggesting.” This female Wizard was trying to sow dissension between the Heavenly Palace and the Sacred Institute.
But Mrs. Yang responded right away in a righteous manner. “The Sacred Institute is only the negotiator of this problem. We will respect all of your opinions. We will neither show bias for anyone nor vent our anger on anyone.”
Next to her, seeing her serious look and thinking of what had happened in the palace, Jiang Chen smiled to himself.
This feeling he had when he was bullying others turned out to be really great.
