Chapter 6240

6240 Overruled

“Elders, today’s meeting is to discuss and decide some matters, which are all related to cooperation. Before the official start, I suggest that we vote to give the subst.i.tute elder Zheng Dongsheng the right to vote. I wonder if anyone has any opinions?” The Azure Dragon immediately proposed to promote Zheng Dongsheng.

Lin Yi smiled faintly. He didn’t care if Zheng Dongsheng had the right to vote before he came in, but now he was happy to see it happen. Maybe he could ask this old man to help him at the critical moment.

“Why bring up what we agreed on yesterday? It’s already against the rules to let him sit in and listen!” The White Tiger frowned and looked at the Azure Dragon unhappily.

“Elder White Tiger, you’re wrong. Since we’re already here, why should we care about one more vote? Besides, we’re trying out this voting mechanism now. As long as everyone agrees, it’s no problem for the subst.i.tute elder to vote!” The Azure Dragon shrugged his shoulders with a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth.

The White Tiger’s face was gloomy. He knew that the Azure Dragon was deliberately showing off their strong position in the elders ‘meeting. Moreover, it was not wrong to vote on Zheng Dongsheng’s voting rights as a meeting topic. So, he snorted and no longer spoke.

“Elder Azure Dragon’s suggestion is very good. Then let’s all vote. I agree that Zheng Dongsheng has the right to vote as an official elder of the outer hall.” The Vermilion Bird said calmly as she raised her right hand.

As the initiator, the Green Dragon naturally did not want to fall behind and immediately expressed his agreement. Xiao Yan and the man in the black bamboo hat did not take Zheng Dongsheng seriously at all, but since the Vermillion Bird and the Green Dragon had agreed, they had to do him a favor.

With that, four out of seven people had agreed. It didn’t matter if Lin Yi said anything or not, so he was happy to hide himself so that the Vermilion Bird and the Azure Dragon wouldn’t suspect him.

The White Tiger and black Tortoise looked at the scene in a daze. They didn’t say anything, as if they had already understood that the situation was not in their favor, so they simply gave up on opposing.

Lin Yi raised an eyebrow as he understood what was going on. The Vermillion bird’s family already had the advantage in the seven-member elder group, and there was no need to promote Zheng Dongsheng. They probably did this to give White Tiger and black Tortoise a blow, to make them recognize the truth and stop their futile resistance.

“Okay, elder Zheng Dongsheng’s voting rights have been pa.s.sed. Let’s move on to the next issue.” The Vermilion bird’s lips curled up, and he glanced at The White Tiger and black Tortoise beside him. He was very pleased with himself.

“Today, we’re mainly discussing how to develop the cage Sea area. It’s the sea area in the South continent that’s the furthest away from our spirit beast clan. Because of the harsh environment and close to the territory of the sea beast clan, human clans dare not live there although the spiritual energy is good. This time, we’ve reached an agreement with the sea beast clan to send human cultivators from other seas to develop the cage Sea area. Does anyone have any opinions?” Azure Dragon had the lowest status among the four elders of the cabinet, but he was always the one who raised the issue. It was obvious that the Vermilion Bird had deliberately arranged it behind the scenes, and he was just a Messenger.

“That Sea region has always been under the control of our sea beast clan. However, we don’t have a high demand for resources there, so we haven’t developed it much. If you want to make use of it, there’s no problem. However, our sea beast clan will not interfere with the matter of manpower. You can deal with it yourself.” Xiao Yi said lazily, but there was a hint of mockery in his eyes as he glanced at the people.

Out of the four external clan elders, besides Xiao Yan, the other three were all humans. Hence, he really wanted to know how the three of them felt.

The so-called sending human cultivators over for development was actually enslaving human cultivators like slaves, just like how humans liked to enslave spirit beasts as mounts.

“Prince Xiao Yan, don’t worry. You don’t have to worry about these things. As for the transportation of human cultivators, the spirit beast clan and the central will be in charge of it. The mined minerals and pills will be exchanged for suitable resources and given to you.” The Azure Dragon smiled faintly. They had already discussed how to split the loot, so there was no need to say more here.

He specifically mentioned this to let Xiao Yan know which side he should stand on at all times. This Prince’s personality was unpredictable. To put it bluntly, no one could guarantee when he would suddenly go crazy and cause trouble.

“Elder Azure Dragon, what’s the deal with transporting human cultivators? Are you recruiting cultivators from the major seas and asking them to develop the cage Sea area?” Lin Yi was very sensitive to the plans of the spirit beast clan, especially when it involved humans. He couldn’t just sit by and do nothing.

“Elder Lin, there’s no problem with that. The resources in the cage Sea area are rich. You should know that human cultivators are very good at gathering resources, and forging and refining pills are all skills that they’re good at. If we let human cultivators develop the cage Sea area, we’ll definitely get twice the result with half the effort.” Azure Dragon smiled faintly, still being polite to Lin Yi’s question. After all, the elixirs that the spirit beast clan needed were only made by Lin Yi and Li Zao Yi.

It was a pity that Green Dragon didn’t answer Lin Yi’s question directly. How could Lin Yi be satisfied?

“Elder Azure Dragon, do the human cultivators we recruit have the freedom to come and go? Is the reward reasonable?” Lin Yi narrowed his eyes, ready to get to the bottom of this.

It wasn’t that Lin Yi was a big-hearted person who liked to put the safety of human pract.i.tioners on his shoulders, but he couldn’t just pretend that he didn’t know anything. He had to at least understand.

“Elder Lin Yi, you’re too naïve. There’s no reasonable reward and freedom for an elder of the Green Dragon sect. All the human cultivators who are sent to the cage Sea area will be restrained and become our slaves. They will have the freedom to come and go, and even their life and death will be in the hands of elder Azure Dragon. ” The White Tiger sneered and mocked the Azure Dragon mercilessly.

In any case, the disadvantage in the elder Council was already set in stone. If he had nothing better to do, he could only disgust the Vermilion Bird and the Azure Dragon. That was the limit of what he could do now.

“I object to this!” Lin Yi’s face went cold. He knew that the man wouldn’t object, but he had to make his att.i.tude clear!

“Your objection is overruled. The matter of opening up the cage breath Sea area has already been decided a long time ago and the plan has already begun to be carried out. It’s not something that an external clan elder like you can stop just because you object!” Vermilion Bird glanced at Lin Yi, not thinking too much of him.

As he said, they couldn’t just give up halfway since they’d already started. Lin Yi was just an outer hall elder, after all, and his words didn’t mean much to him.
