C284 Start
Hu Clan's patriarch Arathi didn't say anything and retreated.
The first round of the secret confrontation ended with the Spirit Fox Clan's victory.
The Hu Clan's protector Ling Xi'er narrowed her eyes and looked at Lori for a while. She whispered to Arathi, "Why do I look like she is not the patriarch of the Spirit Fox Clan, Su Lian?"
Previously, in order to understand the current patriarch of the Spirit Fox Clan, Su Lian, the Hu Clan had specially looked up some information about Su Lian, from her character, diet, to the taste of clothing, and even to the date of her birth.
In addition, Ling Xi'er had even sent an envoy to the Spirit Fox Clan a long time ago to meet the previous patriarch of the Spirit Fox Clan. At that time, Su Lian was by her side, so he had seen Su Lian at a close distance.
As two races that were closer to each other, the connection between them was indispensable. Therefore, the two races had put in a lot of effort to understand each other's patriarch.
Therefore, after Ling Xi'er looked carefully for a while, she felt that there was something wrong with the patriarch in front of her.
Lin Rann's ears were very good. Although Ling Xi'er's voice was very low when she spoke, he could still hear her clearly.
Lin Rann's facial expression changed a little. He didn't think that someone in Hu Clan had seen Su Lian a long time ago.
Lin Rann quickly adjusted his hearing to prevent the people from the Hu Clan from noticing. He immediately changed the topic, "Next, let's quickly negotiate about the alliance between the Hu Clan and the Spirit Fox Clan. It's better to complete it as soon as possible. This will be beneficial to both of us!"
Arathi also felt that it was better to reach an alliance as soon as possible. He did not want to be entangled in so much, so he did not have any reaction to Ling Xi'er's words.
Ling Xi'er saw that Arathi didn't have any reaction, so she didn't hesitate. She said to Lin Rann directly, "Is this really the patriarch of Spirit Fox Clan? Why do I feel that it doesn't seem like it?"
As Ling Xi'er spoke, she also observed the reactions of the surrounding people of the Spirit Fox Clan.
Unfortunately, none of them knew that Su Lian was fake, so their expressions didn't change.
Lin Rann smiled and looked at Ling Xi'er, "Our patriarch is fake? How could that be? For the sake of the alliance, the patriarch of your Hu Clan has personally appeared in our Spirit Fox Clan. In order to show respect to you, no matter what you say... The patriarch of Spirit Fox Clan will also be present in person! "
"This..." Ling Xi'er still didn't believe it and wanted to continue this topic.
Arathi quickly said, "How can the patriarch of the ___ be fake? It's a kind of greeting ceremony. But every race must abide by it, otherwise... Wouldn't that show disrespect to the other party? It would be very easy for conflict to arise. Not to mention the alliance that both sides hope to form. " Then, he looked at Lin Rann and said, "Let's quickly discuss the alliance!"
The other people of Hu Clan felt that their patriarch's words were very reasonable. They all nodded in agreement. The doubts that Ling Xi'er had raised in their hearts had also dissipated.
Ling Xi'er could only helplessly give up.
Looking at the attitude of the Hu Clan, Lin Rann's tensed heart could finally be let go. He secretly let out a breath.
Lin Rann brought everyone to the negotiation hall that had been prepared for a long time. The people of the Hu Clan and the people of the Spirit Fox Clan separated and sat face to face.
Lin Rann said apologetically to Arathi, "I'm sorry. You guys came earlier than us, and we were in a hurry to prepare. Therefore, this negotiation hall isn't perfect. Please bear with it."
Arathi looked at the magnificent room and felt that Lin Rann was being modest. He smiled and nodded. "It's fine, it's fine. This isn't important. What's important is the alliance."
After saying that, Arathi turned to look at Ling Xi'er, who was sitting beside him. Ling Xi'er understood what he meant. She took out a piece of paper and wrote the list of requests from the Hu Clan on it.
Ling Xi'er looked at the list and slowly opened her mouth. With a clear voice, she said, "These are the requests that I have drafted in advance from our Hu Clan."
"The first one is that Hu Clan and Spirit Fox Clan have formed an alliance. They are not allowed to casually send troops to attack each other. We must unite against the enemy. When one side is attacked outside of the alliance... The other side is obligated to send troops to help. Attacks outside of the alliance include the attack of the Turtledove Organization. "
After listening to what was said, the people of the Spirit Fox Clan all nodded in agreement.
This rule would appear in the first clause of the alliance, but the Hu Clan played a word game.
The first clause of the alliance was that it was not allowed to send troops to attack the other side of the alliance, but anyone who appeared here could do as they pleased. This meant that if the Hu Clan wanted to attack the Spirit Fox Clan in the future, they would definitely find a reason in advance.
However, this clause was mutual. In the future, the Spirit Fox Clan would be able to attack the Hu Clan as long as there was a sufficient reason.
Lin Rann felt like laughing when he saw the attack from the Turtledove Organization. He reckoned that the attack from the Turtledove Organization had frightened the Hu Clan. He wondered how badly the Turtledove Organization had destroyed the Hu Clan.2
All in all, this rule wasn't too big of a problem.
Lin Rann nodded his head.
Seeing Lin Rann nod his head, Lori also nodded her head.
Su Lian had already told her that Lin Rann was the leader of the negotiation. No matter what request the other party made, no matter how harsh the requirements were, as long as Lin Rann agreed, she would agree.
Lori could understand what kind of requests Ling Xi'er said were beneficial to Spirit Fox Clan and which ones were not good. However, she could not make the decision on her own because Su Lian had told her in advance.
So she had to observe Lin Rann from time to time.
Seeing Lori nod her head, Ling Xi'er continued to read. She did not care whether this Spirit Fox Clan head in front of her was real or fake. Everything was to form an alliance and gain some benefits for the Hu Clan.
"Second, when one side is attacked by an external force, the other side not only needs to send troops to help them drive away foreign forces, but also needs to provide friendly assistance. Help the attacked side restore basic facilities. The foreign forces include the Turtledove Organization."
Ling Xi'er once again added the Turtledove Organization in the Hu Clan. It was not hard to tell how much importance the Hu Clan attached to the Turtledove Organization.
Furthermore, it was specifically mentioned about the restoration of the infrastructure. Presumably, the attack of the Turtledove Organization this time would cause great damage to the Hu Clan.
Lin Rann nodded his head once again in agreement.
Lori nodded her head in agreement.
Ling Xi'er continued reading.
"The third condition is that we need to share information with each other. Any allied race that obtains foreign forces' attack on another allied race is to remind the other party to prepare for defense as soon as possible. Also, prepare to send reinforcements yourself "
