Chapter 427: Compensation

Balmond was taken aback. He thought that the leader of Narda Principality was a prideful expert who wouldn't be willing to compromise.

"Sigh. It's all in the past. I just hope that Narda Principality will no longer attack our borders." In truth, after Balmond became Jiu Shen's subordinate, he cared less about Narda Principality. Now that their leader is willing to apologize to him, he was willing to take a step back. Besides, their Bloodfallen Family was still at war with the Lycan Family and the Torgrim Family. They didn't want more enemies coming at their doorstep at this moment.

Demon Empress Ganda heaved a sigh of relief. Although she was already expecting Balmond to accept her apology due to their circumstance, she still felt that massive burden was finally lifted off her chest.

After that, she took a golden ring and placed it on the table as she said. "Your Majesty Balmond, inside this ring are various resources. Take it as compensation for our Narda Principality's mistakes."

Balmond silently took the golden ring. He then used his spiritual vision to inspect what was inside. What he saw made him feel a bit surprised. 'This woman is actually willing to take out so many resources at once just to make amends with us... Just why did they suddenly change in attitude?'

"I'll take this since we truly need resources right now. You might have already heard about the incoming war..." Balmond muttered as he kept the golden ring.

Demon Empress Ganda nodded her head. "Narda Principality is willing to offer our assistance to the Bloodfallen Family. We wish to ally with you. Narda Principality also hopes that the lotus building would be willing to become allies with our Narda Principality."

Hm?

Balmond was pleasantly surprised upon hearing this. Their Bloodfallen Family's strength was not strong enough to overpower the other two founding families. If Narda Principality is willing to offer their assistance, then they would have a higher chance of winning the war!

"On behalf of the Bloodfallen Family, I accept Narda Principality as our ally!" Balmond said as he extended his hand towards the Demon Empress who immediately shook it.

"I'm sorry, but my voice can't represent the lotus building. However, I'm certain that Wine Master Jiu Shen would not accept the alliance between Narda Principality and the lotus building. Knowing his personality, he might even ask for you to become his subordinate." Yue Bo said in a calm voice.

'Wine Master Jiu Shen is standing at the peak of this world, so why would he ally himself with others? Naive!' Yue Bo scoffed in his heart.

Hearing this, the Demon Empress became silent. She knew that what Yue Bo said was true. She had fought with Jiu Shen before and she knew that she had no chance of winning against him. That guy also asked her to become his gardener, so what Yue Bo said wasn't wrong.

In the end, Demon Empress Ganda sighed bitterly. "Once Wine Master Jiu Shen comes out of seclusion, I will discuss this with him. Thank you for your time, gentlemen. Farewell."

She then left right away, but before she could take a step down the stairway, she heard Theia's cold voice ringing beside her ears.

"The next time you come here, you must buy something first. Idling isn't allowed in this store. You've broken two rules already, but I won't ask for compensation since Yue Bo is with you. Leave."

Demon Empress Ganda stared at Theia's expressionless face for a short moment before she lightly bowed her head. She then left the lotus building without looking back.

Theia stared at Balmond and Yue Bo, making the two grown men unconsciously flinch. "You heard me, right? You can't bring people here just to talk. Leave."

She didn't even give them face, but the two men dared not utter a sound as they obediently left.

Herald Lycan slowly descended before the iron gates of Poison Valley. He did not hide his aura, so he immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Hahaha! Long time no see, Herald!" A middle-aged goat demon dressed in purple and black robes came out of the iron gates to greet him. This guy was the Valley Master of Poison Valley, Jiao Lei! He is an expert at the mid stage Void God Realm!

Herald Lycan stepped forward and cupped his fists towards the goat demon as he smiled. "It's good to see that you're doing well, my friend."

Valley Master Jiao Lei smiled, but his face suddenly turned stiff when he noticed the cultivation base of the werewolf demon in front of him. "Your cultivation..."

"Haha! I made a breakthrough just recently!" Herald Lycan proudly stated. Even so, he dared not act too excessively in the territory of Jiao Lei. This guy might be weaker than him in terms of cultivation, but his poison concoctions and poison arts could still threaten him!

Valley Master Jiao Lei warmly smiled as he said. "I'm sure that you're not just here to flaunt your recent breakthrough, Herald. Come. Let's talk inside my place."

Herald Lycan followed the Valley Master to his mansion while looking around the territory of Poison Valley. He was surprised when he noticed that the poison mist here had become stronger than his last visit. Even so, this amount of poison was nothing to the current him since he could just expel it out of his body using his true essence and anma.

"So you've noticed it, huh? Although I didn't achieve a breakthrough in my cultivation, I was able to discover a much stronger poison to upgrade the defense of our Poison Valley! Even Nascent God Realm experts would die in a few days if they don't have our antidote!" Valley Master Jiao wore a smug look when he saw the stunned Herald.

Herald Lycan felt a chill in his heart upon hearing this. Just the poison mist alone could actually kill Nascent God Realm experts in days if not treated?! That was absurd! Luckily, Valley Master Jiao was his long-time friend and comrade.. Making enemies with the Poison Valley was dangerous! He didn't even know how Narda Principality managed to repel these poison masters.
