Chapter 361 Negotiation
"My lord, you must have misunderstood," Mu Yunyun said. "I came here to apologize, not to agree to the contract. I hope you will understand."
"What did you say?"
Yin Dan exploded.
He stood up instantly and walked over to Mu Yunyun.
"You're still trying to play hard to get? Let me tell you, my patience is limited. If you don't agree, don't blame me for being impolite!"
"You're welcome?"
Mu Yunyun looked up and met his aggressive expression.
Yin Dan seemed to have been burned and looked away uncomfortably.
Mu Yunyun, however, had no intention of letting him go.
She stood up, her feathered skirt trailing on the ground, and took a step.
Yin Dan unconsciously stepped back.
"Lord Yin Dan, may I ask, why are you being so impolite to me?"
She approached step by step.
The boy was tall, but she forced him to the corner of the table by her dark, inky eyes.
Yin Dan could even smell the morning dew on her body.
"What are you going to do!"
His whole body tensed up.
Mu Yunyun grabbed the belt around his waist. This action was utterly humiliating. The clan valued propriety, righteousness, integrity, and a sense of shame. The belt was used to straighten one's clothes, and if it was pulled off...
Yin Dan dared not even breathe loudly.
He lowered his head and saw her fair and delicate fingers caressing his belt, which made his breathing become heavy.
She's trying to seduce him!
Don't assume he'll agree!
Many people want to get into his bed.
He doesn't need her!
"Lord Yin Dan, tell me, if I were to take you right here, would you have any power to resist?"
That's vulgar and outrageous.
Yin Dan pushed her away, but Mu Yunyun restrained his wrist. Yin Dan struggled, even using his spiritual power, but found that he couldn't move at all.
"you!"
He met her cool, aloof gaze.
Her cultivation level was more than twice that of his!
How can it be!
Mu Yunyun stared straight at him: "You're not bad looking either. If I sleep with you, I won't lose out. I can even go to the sacred mountain. It's like killing two birds with one stone."
"You are so presumptuous!"
He was young and inexperienced, and relied on his family to act arrogantly. Of course, his cultivation level was also high, at the early stage of the seventh rank. He was respected by everyone in the Nine Provinces and Four Seas, and no one dared to be disrespectful to him.
But the little female in front of him didn't take him seriously at all, and even wanted to sleep with him!
Just like she said, with his strength, he couldn't resist at all. Once the Great Covenant of Heaven and Earth was established, he had no way to do anything to her!
"You are so shameless!"
His tone was fierce, and his face showed a mixture of embarrassment and anger.
Of course, it wasn't out of shame or anger at being humiliated by her, but rather, he actually reacted to these outrageous words.
He had been pampered since childhood and had never been bullied like this before. He thought she would obediently grovel and fawn over him, but unexpectedly, she...
I wonder if it will hurt...
It's better not here, at least in bed...
Mu Yunyun let go of his hand: "Lord Yin Dan, I only hope that we can have a proper talk."
Yin Dan: "???"
It's not about getting rid of him.
What's there to talk about!
"What do I have to talk to you about!"
To proceed or not to proceed!
Enough with the nonsense!
Yin Dan looked uncomfortable.
He heard Mu Yunyun say, "If I'm not mistaken, Lord Yin Dan personally attended the treasure appraisal event to deliver a gift?"
Yin Dan didn't know why she brought this up.
"So what?"
Mu Yunyun sat down abruptly, not looking at Yin Dan, but staring at the half-cup of tea he was drinking.
"Your Bei Yin clan has been worshipping the Shenshan clan for many years. Because your elder brother is exceptionally talented, he caught the eye of that concubine and rose to prominence in one step."
"But life on Mount Shenshan is never that easy."
“Those who have reached the pinnacle of the Divine Mountain are as numerous as clouds, and their clans are all deeply rooted. How can your small Northern Yin clan possibly establish itself on the Divine Mountain?”
"It's less about giving gifts and more about currying favor. After all, only if that concubine is happy can your elder brother maintain his favor and your Northern Yin Clan have a place. Am I right or wrong?"
Yin Dan hadn't expected her to be so blunt!
He gritted his teeth, unable to refute it at all.
While the Northern Yin Clan may appear glamorous on the surface, their lives in the Divine Mountain are far from easy. After all, in that region, strength is paramount, and status is equally important; who would give them a second glance?
He didn't go to the sacred mountain for a long time because he couldn't stand the humiliation there.
Later, I heard that Yingzhao had found the Azure Dragon String.
He also wanted to take this opportunity to make things easier for his brother in the clan, so that he wouldn't be looked down upon by others and belittled by his other partners.
"What on earth are you going to say?"
Having his thoughts exposed, Yin Dan was furious and embarrassed, and didn't want to argue with her for even a second longer.
Mu Yunyun met his fierce eyes.
"My lord, how about we cooperate?"
"My Mu clan has many businesses throughout the land, which can give the Bei Yin clan a boost in their position at Shenshan."
Yin Dan scoffed: "You? From a mere snow weasel clan?"
Mu Yunyun was not surprised by his reaction.
"My lord, you may consider it. My Snow Weasel clan has been able to stand tall in Yuanzhou, which is naturally due to its abilities."
“In our early years, my Snow Weasel clan started out with pottery, and later with forging, becoming famous throughout the land and renowned across the world. It would be beneficial for you to cooperate with me, my lord. Wouldn’t that be much more useful than being a foot-washing maid?”
"Who...who said you'd be made a foot-washing maid!"
He just said it casually.
I never intended to belittle her!
Mu Yunyun didn't want to argue with him about this matter: "In the past, I would have served you as a servant, but now I have something on my mind, so please don't blame me."
"So what?" Yin Dan said generously, "If you can't bear to part with your companions, just bring them along. I won't mind."
"I mind."
"What?" Yin Dan was taken aback.
“I mind.” Mu Yunyun repeated, looking at him with an unprecedented seriousness: “As a mother, I must consider the child. A child born to a slave will inevitably be looked down upon in the future. If you insist on this, then there is nothing more to say.”
She stood up and bowed.
"Farewell."
"Oh, wait a minute."
Yin Dan called out to her.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. If you don't want to, I won't force you."
He didn't know she had quite a temper.
If it were anyone else, who would dare to be so presumptuous in front of him?
However, he didn't want to argue with her.
After all, it would be a lie to say he wasn't moved by those words.
He knew about pottery. His mother had told him that there were many pottery items on the offering list of the sacred mountain, which were very popular among the sacred mountain clan.
There's also forging.
The longswords forged by the Mu clan were renowned throughout the sacred mountain, and even he had heard of them.
If we could cooperate with the Mu family.
Why should the Northern Yin clan worry about not being able to establish themselves on the sacred mountain?
Perhaps his brother's life will be much better.
With that in mind, Yin Dan didn't hesitate any longer.
"How are you going to cooperate?"
"Since the goal is to win over the clans, I imagine your Northern Yin clan has no shortage of Dongzhuhai currency. How about we split it 91/10?"
Who says there's no shortage of coins in Dongzhuhai!
Yin Dan felt his face burning.
Visiting Mount Kailash requires spending Zhuhai dollars at every turn, and quite a bit at that.
They had no roots in the sacred mountain and had to bribe officials and give gifts everywhere. Moreover, the slaves in the sacred mountain were obsequious and snobbish. The elder brother was not having an easy time in the backyard. Without Dongzhu, how could he command those people?
