"However, we also have a condition!" Patriarch Rong Cang continued.

"What conditions?"

"If we become an affiliated force of the Cheng family, then we are also considered to be members of the Cheng family. We should enjoy the same treatment as the disciples of the Cheng family. Moreover, once a foreign enemy invades, the head of the Cheng family should treat everyone equally and not let us affiliated forces die in vain!

Finally, after becoming a subsidiary force of the Cheng family, our sect must retain its own name." Patriarch Rong Cang said.

After hearing Patriarch Rongcang's conditions, everyone nodded, feeling that what he said was very reasonable.

If Cheng Yu could agree to their conditions, they would feel much more comfortable even if they became affiliated forces of the Cheng family.

"Sorry, except for the third one, I don't accept any of the first two!" Cheng Yu refused directly.

Cheng Yu had no intention of directly changing them into the Cheng family from the beginning, it was just a subsidiary sect.

Therefore, he can accept the third item, but as for the first two items, it is impossible for him to agree.

"Master Cheng, if this is the case, aren't you forcing us?" Patriarch Rong Cang's expression turned ugly.

He felt that such a condition was not too much. Even the sect they had been affiliated with for so many years had become a subsidiary of the Cheng family. It was too much that he could not even agree to such a condition.

"Did I force you? I said from the beginning that I would not force anyone. I also did not force you to become an affiliated force of the Cheng family. I just gave you a choice. The outcome is yours to choose.

This is something you and I are willing to do. If you can't accept it, you can leave now. I won't stop you.

You must make it clear that I am not begging you to surrender to my Cheng family, nor will I be like the Xuantian Sect, who will destroy you if you don't obey.

If you can accept my conditions, then we are a family. If you don't want to, then you can leave completely. I will not embarrass any of you, let alone threaten you.

My Cheng family is still my Cheng family, and you are still you!" Cheng Yu said very simply.

Cheng Yu's straightforwardness made others very distressed. It was precisely because Cheng Yu was so free and easy that he didn't even care whether they submitted or not, which made them anxious.

Because there are only three paths before them now, one is to submit to the Xuantian Sect, one is to be destroyed by the Xuantian Sect, and the last one is to submit to the Cheng family.

Undoubtedly, these three roads are dead ends for them.

However, among these three dead ends, surrendering to Cheng Yu is obviously the best one.

If Cheng Yu doesn't want to accept them, they really have no choice.

"Then when we join the Cheng family, shouldn't the head of the Cheng family have any expressions and support? The head of the Cheng family will never let us be inferior to Shushan and the others, right? As far as I know, Shushan and the others have at least received some benefits."

Ancestor Rong Cang said calmly.

"If you are willing to join the Cheng family, I will definitely not let you live worse than those outsiders. Apart from anything else, you will definitely be better than them with the benefits that outsiders have.

But you are just a subsidiary force of my Cheng family, so it is impossible for me to completely treat you as the main sect of the Cheng family.

So your treatment must be worse than ours." Cheng Yu said.

In fact, what Cheng Yu said was not very different from what they themselves proposed. But the reason why Cheng Yu wanted to refute them was to let them understand who has the final say here.

Even if what they say is right, they can't make the decision. Only he can decide, and no one can bargain with him.

This is a kind of majesty!

"We can accept this!" Seeing Cheng Yu say this, they felt a little better.

It is not the same as the original Cheng family, but it is better than outsiders. This is considered a reasonable thing.

"As for the second item, I, Cheng Yu, naturally cannot let you become cannon fodder for no reason, let alone let everyone die in vain.

However, what I need is for you to completely obey the orders of my Cheng family. If every time I transfer you, you think that I want you to be cannon fodder and die in vain, then you should leave. I don’t need such subordinates.

!" Cheng Yu said.

Cheng Yu always likes to speak first if he has anything to say. Now it's okay for them to disobey orders, but if they disobey orders during war, it will be fatal.

Therefore, if every time he starts to execute the transfer order, these guys will be suspicious and think that he wants them to be pawns, then what is the use of them?

"Master Cheng, we can accept this!" Patriarch Rong Cang felt better after hearing what Cheng Yu said.

He was worried that Cheng Yu would use them as cannon fodder, but since Cheng Yu had already talked about this, he believed that Cheng Yu would not use their sect as a backstop.

"So you have no problem?" Cheng Yu said.

"There is no problem, we can declare our surrender to the Cheng family now!" Patriarch Rong Cang said.

"Since you don't have any questions, let me talk about mine!" Cheng Yu said.

"Master Cheng, what other problems do you have?" Everyone couldn't help but frowned again, their hearts pounding.

They now understand Cheng Yu, and he is definitely not a loser, so if he has a problem, it is likely to be a big problem for them.

"Since you have become an affiliated force of the Cheng family, as the sect, you must have some rights. For example, the Cheng family can select outstanding disciples from your sect to join the Cheng family." Cheng Yu said.

"This..." Everyone was a little unhappy.

If Cheng Yu picked away all the disciples in their sect, wouldn't they have cultivated talents for the Cheng family in vain?

"Master Cheng, if this happens, won't we lose all the talented people who can take action?" said Patriarch Wuwei.

"You can rest assured about this. We only select a quota of disciples every year, and these disciples will have cultivation limits. We don't want everyone, and we won't select all of you.

Although we have selected some outstanding disciples, we will also reward your subordinate sect leaders according to the strength of each disciple.

These rewards are enough for you to cultivate more talents!" Cheng Yu said.

"This... okay, we can accept it!" The two sects thought for a while and nodded.

"Finally, you must contribute a certain amount of resources to the Cheng family every year!" Cheng Yu said.

"Pay tribute? But they didn't pay tribute in Shushan? But we still have to pay tribute? Doesn't this mean that we are not even as good as Shushan?" This is unacceptable to everyone.

"It's just on the surface that they don't need to pay tribute, they will only pay more tribute than you!"

"I just have these two demands. If you agree, then we can sign a contract, and then we can announce it to the world!" Cheng Yu said.

"Okay, we agree!" Everyone thought for a while and agreed to so many conditions, including this one!
