Lu Sangjiu ignored Ye Zhiyao, looking only at Cangming. "My affairs have nothing to do with you, and it's not your place to lecture me."
She turned her gaze to Master Qian He and the others. "If the peace talks fail today, there may never be another chance. Are you... certain you want to give up on this just because I'm a Demon Cultivator?"
For some reason, several of them couldn't bring themselves to meet her eyes and lowered their heads.
Hua Jianzhi hesitated for a moment before suddenly asking, "Just now, Cangming said you exchanged yourself as the price... What does that mean?"
Lu Sangjiu's expression faltered.
She hadn't wanted to talk about this, but things had already come to this point. It no longer mattered whether she spoke of it or not.
But before she could speak, Cangming spoke up first.
"What does it mean?"
"Heh. It means the condition for my agreeing to the peace talks is that she must return with me to the Western Demon Realm!"
