As the Youzhou City Lord uttered these words, the three indeed found themselves in a difficult situation.
The Tianyang City Lord chuckled: "The Youzhou City Lord talks about these matters too early, don't you think? After all, these bandits, though formidable, aren't irreplaceable by you, are they?"
The Youzhou City Lord squints: "If I am not mistaken, Tianyang City Lord, aren't these bandits from your Tianyang City's Dongwen Mountain?"
The Tianyang City Lord seemed slightly displeased: "And what if they are?"
The Puppet City Lord spoke coldly: "If indeed they originate within the scope of Tianyang City Lord's domain, yet demand my Youzhou City to dispatch troops to drive them away, shouldn't I at least get a share of the spoils? Is this logical in the world?"
The Tianyang City Lord's face changed, apparently ready to break the pot: "What is your Youzhou City worth, hoping to share our gains? Do you really think I can't suppress those little demons of Dongwen Mountain?"
