The next morning, the sun shone on the Bund, covering this ancient yet modern city with a golden coat.

Representatives from the Western Coalition and Phoenix held their first formal talks on this historic land.

The atmosphere of the talks was extremely tense, and the faces of representatives from both sides looked solemn and serious.

As for the Western coalition forces, their demands were particularly harsh.

They not only demanded that Phoenix immediately stop all expansion operations and adhere to the current boundaries, but also that all captured Western coalition prisoners be released unconditionally.

In addition, they also asked Phoenix to pay a huge compensation of up to 100 billion, which is undoubtedly a staggering figure and is obviously testing Phoenix's bottom line and determination.

Faced with such harsh demands, the Phoenix representatives naturally disagreed, but they did not respond immediately.

At the same time, Xia Hun's actions added more variables to the talks.

Xia Hun's two heavy combined brigades once again broke through the Western Coalition's positions and continued to advance northward. Their fierce momentum undoubtedly showed the Western Coalition their determination and ability to launch a full-scale attack.

This action caused members of the Western delegation to leave in anger. They obviously did not expect Xia Hun to take such decisive action.

However, they did not choose to leave directly, but instead went to the location of the Xia State delegation.

There, they made the same demands as they had made to the Xia Kingdom: to stop supporting Phoenix and to enter into a ceasefire according to their plan.

Faced with the demands of the Western coalition forces, Mr. Cao appeared unusually calm.

Mr. Cao knew very well that in this complicated game, whoever has the stronger fist has the right to speak.

Therefore, he did not respond immediately, but chose to remain silent.

Mr. Cao understood that only through practical actions could the Western coalition forces truly realize their mistakes and ignorance.

"Hit me. Only when it hurts will I realize I'm wrong." Mr. Cao repeated these words silently in his mind, his eyes revealing a kind of determination.

This war has just begun, and the real battle is yet to come.

As long as we persist, we will be able to break the arrogance of the Western coalition forces and make them truly realize their mistakes and ignorance.

Mr. Cao also knew that this conflict was not just a fight for territory, but also a contest for dignity and honor.

Looking back on the various disputes between the Xia Kingdom and the Western powers throughout history, every surrender was accompanied by endless pain and sacrifice.

Now, the Xia Kingdom is no longer the lamb to be slaughtered. It has its own will and strength and will never give in easily.

He gazed at the Bund outside the window, feeling a surge of ambition and passion in his heart.

This time, it is not the same Xia Kingdom that was at the mercy of others hundreds of years ago.

Since the Western coalition is not convinced, then they should increase their support and see who will have the last laugh.

Two days later, the sky of Phoenix welcomed a group of special visitors - people from the Vatican.

They arrived in this mysterious city on a special plane in a grand procession. The team was quite large, with dozens of knights dressed in gorgeous armor, looking majestic and awe-inspiring, adding a bit of solemnity and dignity to this ancient city.

The arrival of the Vatican caused quite a stir, but they chose to keep a low profile and checked directly into the most luxurious hotel in Phoenix.

With the arrival of Vatican personnel, negotiations between the Vatican and the Eastern sects officially began.

Unlike the tense situation between the Western Coalition and Phoenix, this negotiation was conducted in a peaceful atmosphere.

Both parties seemed to have a tacit understanding and did not invite outsiders to participate in their secret talks. The entire negotiation process maintained a high degree of confidentiality.

The negotiation location was chosen to be a conference room with luxurious decoration and a quiet atmosphere.

Representatives from both sides sat on both sides of the long table, smiling, and the atmosphere between them seemed quite harmonious.

They exchanged views, discussed issues of common concern, and seemed to be trying to find a solution acceptable to both sides.

As time went by, the negotiations gradually entered an in-depth stage.

Representatives of both sides began to have in-depth discussions and consultations on some specific issues, and the atmosphere became more heated and tense.

Finally, with the joint efforts of representatives from both sides, the negotiations achieved successful results.

They reached a series of important agreements and consensus, laying a solid foundation for future cooperation.

When representatives from both sides walked out of the conference room, their faces were filled with satisfied smiles.

At the entrance of the hotel, the sunlight fell on the smooth ground, reflecting a golden glow.

The sect's eldest daughter came out in person and saw off the Vatican personnel with her unique elegance.

Her appearance undoubtedly added a bit of unusual color to the negotiations.

Although the content of the negotiations has not been revealed to the outside world, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the two sides have reached some kind of tacit understanding.

They divided their respective spheres of interest and made sure that both sides had entrances into that mysterious world.

In this world, whoever finds something owns it, which is undoubtedly a fair and practical way.

Now, both sides have chosen to cease fire and work together to search for the treasures in that world.

If I continue to fight, I don’t know when I can truly enter that world and start my treasure hunt.

And such consumption is unbearable for either party.

Therefore, the current situation is undoubtedly the best.

Both parties have an entrance and can enter that mysterious world.

Moreover, the world inside is so large that it is basically impossible for the two sides to meet, thus avoiding new battles.

Such an outcome not only ensures the interests of both parties, but also maintains a peaceful situation.

The eldest daughter of the sect said goodbye to the people from the Holy See with a smile, not taking Phoenix City seriously at all.

A few days ago, Zhang Fan had warned these people, but now they are negotiating without Phoenix City and reaching a cooperation agreement privately. This is a bit bold.

You don’t want to give Phoenix’s share, right? These guys are becoming more and more daring.

Since Phoenix’s involvement is not required, it is easy.

The hotel will immediately notify these people that the room rates will increase. Phoenix City will no longer provide any support to the people in the sect. If they need support, they will have to pay a higher price.

Zhang Fan wanted to see whether this group of people had the strength.

You actually want to leave me aside?

The eldest lady of the sect looked into the distance and saw that the sect's master had already arrived. This time she had to go over and do something.

Others may be afraid of that guy, but I am not!

Since he is disobedient and dares to humiliate me, I will let him know how powerful I am!

He withdrew a very proud look and started walking towards the hotel. Soon there would be good news.

However, the woman in purple next to her showed a hint of worry. That person is not easy to deal with!
