Chapter 1547: Negotiation Successful
After all, he himself did not know whether he could actually pull it off.
However, at this point, he had no choice but to gamble; if he won, his side would gain an absolute advantage.
But if he lost, the result would simply be what it was anyway.
Thinking of this, Li Yue looked at the Demon God, pondered for a moment, and then opened his mouth to ask.
"What do you think?"
After Li Yue's words fell, the Demon God did not answer immediately; instead, after sinking into thought for a long while, he slowly opened his mouth to speak: "No, the time is still too long. Three days—one person can only exchange for three days of ceasefire."
Hearing the Demon God's words, Li Yue shook his head and said, "No, six days at most."
"You are simply taking advantage of a crisis to extort others!" Upon hearing Li Yue's words, the Demon God's tone instantly filled with rage.
"How exactly am I taking advantage of a crisis to extort others?" Hearing the Demon God's words, Li Yue immediately smiled and said.
Hearing Li Yue's words, the Demon God was rendered speechless; he had not expected Li Yue to use the lives of his subordinates as leverage, which was simply too despicable.
Thinking of this, the Demon God's heart filled with anger and frustration, but for now, he could only endure it.
"No, four days. One person exchanges for four days of ceasefire."
Li Yue still shook his head: "Five days. Like this, five days will suffice."
"Fine, I will abide by your words; five days it shall be." Looking at Li Yue, the Demon God said through gritted teeth.
Hearing the Demon God agree, Li Yue also breathed a sigh of relief; he knew that his scheme had finally succeeded.
"Then, is it time to release the people now!?" the Demon God asked.
"Of course; however, these people cannot simply be released just like that, otherwise, who knows whether you might break your promise!"
Hearing Li Yue's words, the Demon God fell silent for a moment, then opened his mouth to say, "What do you want? Just say it!"
"It is very simple: every five days, I will release one person, until all have been released," Li Yue said.
"You...!" Hearing Li Yue's words, the Demon God was nearly driven mad with fury.
He had not expected him to say such a thing.
"You...!" The Demon God looked at Li Yue with gritted teeth and spoke.
Hearing the Demon God's words, Li Yue dismissed them as nothing, opening his mouth to say, "What, could it be that you dare not? Could it be that you, my lord, the Demon God of the mighty Demon Race, are actually a person who breaks their word!?"
