Chapter 4020 Absolutely Unnecessary
They wanted to evade the attack, but they felt as though their legs had frozen like ice. They could not move even an inch. With the palm of the attacker fast approaching, the council members shut their eyes tightly and waited for death to greet them.
No matter how much Quirina wanted to help, she knew she could not because the attacker's targets were the council members, not her. At that critical moment, a formidable force suddenly struck from the southeast.
"Who is it?" The Cordierite Association fighter suddenly stopped when he noticed an elderly man in a black robe before him. Had he not evaded the old man's palm strike, he would have been killed on the spot Instead of answering the question, the mysterious man shifted his attention to Albert on the dragon-shaped cloudship.
"It's been a while since we've met, Mr. Fitzgerald. You remained as dashing as ever!" His voice sounded powerful.
Albert was taken aback, but he quickly regained his senses.
"It's been a while indeed, Mr. Burton. Are you here today to make an enemy of me too?" questioned Albert somewhat angrily at the Vice Chairman of the Prime Association, Ebenezer Burton, whose position far exceeded that of Sylvan. Ebenezer represented the association to some extent.
In other words, Ebenezer's presence meant that the Prime Association was ready to burn bridges.
"What makes you say that, Mr. Fitzgerald? I'm simply here to negotiate with the Cordierite Association in the Chairman's place," answered Ebenezer.
When Albert realized that the Prime Association did not intend to fight, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fine. Let's talk, then!" Albert agreed to negotiate without a second thought.
Then, the two used the Astre Lune Sect headquarters conference room as the venue for their negotiation and began by discussing compensations. After three hours of parleying, the two parties finally reached an agreement.
"It's settled, Mr. Fitzgerald. The Prime Association will offer the nine-star ley line as the main bargaining chip for compensation. The ultimate weapons and the magical herbs will be delivered within three months according to the negotiated quantity. The other sects' losses will also be compensated according to your request. It's up to the Cordierite Association to persuade the other sects not to act rashly," stated Ebenezer in a deep voice.
In response to that, Albert nodded. "Since the Prime Association is willing to compensate so generously, the Cordierite Association will be foolish to not play ball. You can rest assured that we'll appease the other sects. All the Prime Association has to do is ensure the payments are delivered to our Willowbank branch on time."
Besides the generous compensation the Prime Association offered, Albert was quick to strike a deal with Ebenezer mainly because he had received an order from the headquarters.
It turned out that the Prime Association headquarters was already communicating with the Cordierite Association headquarters over a communication device when Ebenezer hurried over to Astre Lune Sect for the negotiation.
In order to prevent a lose-lose situation that other sects could take advantage of, the Chairman of the Cordierite Association decided to accept the other party's compensation and let Levi go.
After the negotiation, Albert immediately returned to Willowbank with his army, while the Prime Association announced that Levi would be one of them from that moment on and that anyone who opposed him would be making an enemy of the association.
The council members of Astre Lune Sect sighed and were relieved after the crisis was averted, so much so that they almost danced in celebration.
Only after the matter was satisfactorily resolved did Levi, who was far away at Immortal Manor in Lightspring, replace out that so many things had happened in his absence.
"Damn it! That was absolutely unnecessary!" Levi was upset because he was sure he could have taken the Cordierite Association army head-on.
At that moment, Sylvan hurried over.
