Chapter 1078: Working Together Again
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Chu Bai soon found the Great Elder who was drinking in the small village.
Under the dim light of the tavern, the First Elder sat there and drank alone.
First Elder really couldn’t think of how he was worse than others. Why did he end up like this every time?
He was clearly on the verge of success, but he did not expect to fail in the end. “Why are you secretly drinking here alone?” Chu Bai’s sudden arrival had given the Great Elder a fright. He hadn’t expected Bai Ye to come to his side.
“Nothing, I just came to see you and our new sect leader. I said that I would give the position of sect leader to you. I didn’t expect you to take the initiative to propose such a condition. Then I can’t do anything about it.”
Chu Bai still wanted to calm him down, which was why he said this now.
When the First Elder heard this, he felt that something was wrong. Did he still have a chance to say such words?
“What do you mean by that? Could it be that there’s still a chance between us?”
The Great Elder suddenly had hope rekindled. Could it be that there was really hope in this situation?
“You mean to say that I still have hope? Are you really willing to give me the position?” The First Elder looked over in confusion. He did not expect that he would still have a chance in this position.
“Of course I will give you the chance you deserve. Don’t worry about that.”
Chu Bai promised once again. Although he said that, no one knew what would happen behind his back.
“Are you serious? If you’re serious, you should give up your seat to me and not talk to me like this. Now, do you want to give up your seat to me or do you want to continue chatting with me?”
The Great Elder still could not figure out what would happen here. After all, he was a little uncertain about the current situation.
Chu Bai actually didn’t have much interest in the position of sect master, but he had to have a reason to stand here.
“I have to stand here. I have no choice.” Chu Bai didn’t know what to say now. After all, he wasn’t standing here for anyone else. In fact, he was mainly here to take care of more people.
” You said that you can’t give me the position, but it’s not the same, right? You can continue to live a carefree life and bring your people anywhere you want. I won’t say anything even if you stay.” First Elder really couldn’t understand.
“Although I think so and it’s not a big deal to give up my position to you, this matter is not as simple as you think.” Chu Bai didn’t know how to describe it.
“I know that you are a group of outsiders. I have already noticed it a long time ago, but I don’t know why you are staying here. You should have more places to go”
Chu Bai couldn’t do anything about it. In this situation, there was nothing good to say.
Since the Great Elder had already guessed it, there was no need to hide it.
“We did come from another place, but I haven’t found more places. After all, it’s not that easy for you to leave this mountain. You have to at least defeat some people unless you can help me.”
Chu Bai once again stated his purpose. After going around in circles, he still needed help.
“So you came here because you need my help. I’m really surprised.” The Great Elder did not expect things to turn out like this. He actually needed help.
If he was helped now, it would indeed be beneficial to him, but what about him?
The Great Elder really could not think of what kind of benefits he could obtain by helping him.
It didn’t seem to mean much to him.
Even if Chu Bai could leave this place, what would he have left?
“If you want me to help you, it’s actually very simple. It’s not too difficult. Give me your position first, and then I can help you without any scruples.”
The Great Elder had been secretly cultivating recently to improve his rope, especially his dual blade cultivation.
The last battle with Dugu Wen had made him feel helpless, so he had changed a lot.
“Since you said so, then I’m very sincere. Within a week, you just have to help me defeat three people.” Chu Bai had made up his mind this time.
If he didn’t kill these people, he would always feel uncomfortable.
“Aren’t you guys working together? Why did you do it?” First Elder had already guessed who one of them was.
“Alright, since you already know, then I won’t hide anymore. Actually, I want to deal with him because he’s expanding very quickly. If I don’t deal with him, even if you take over in the future, you’ll die quickly.”
What Chu Bai said was very reasonable. After all, whoever accepted this position would definitely be the thorn in the other party’s palm in the future. “Alright, alright. Since we’ve already said so much, let’s work together and decide whether we’ll deal with him first or not.”
First Elder started playing the Riddler game.
Chu Bai was helpless. He didn’t expect to play Riddler again.
“Let’s not play riddles here. Actually, the person I want to deal with is very simple. I’ll ask him to come over tomorrow. At that time, the two of us can work together.”
Chu Bai didn’t want to go through all those twists and turns. After all, this was all there was to it. It wasn’t a big problem.
The two of them working together should be a good situation. Anyway, things had already come to this point. There was not much difference in doing those things. They had to do this.
“Alright, then I’ll look forward to it tomorrow. I hope it’s as you said. There won’t be any problems. If anything really happens, I’ll run away first. I still have to make this clear to you.”
The Great Elder was a temperamental person to begin with. He had his own methods for such matters, and at the last moment, he would definitely protect his own interests.
” Every man for himself. It’s not a big deal to protect yourself. I just hope that you can severely injure him in the battle tomorrow.”
After Chu Bai finished speaking, he turned around and sent a message to Freedom King.
Of course, the person he wanted to deal with was him. This guy had recently gained so much territory, but he didn’t come to help him. It was obvious that he had forgotten about him.
Chu Bai wanted to completely resolve this problem because he had already expanded too much. If he didn’t fight with him again, he would probably be the one to be annexed.
Moreover, he had to call another person for this decisive battle.
Especially that person, he had to call him. Without his help, it would not work.
