After Ghana stopped speaking, she stepped back and maintained a calm expression.

However, almost everyone in the room could understand to whom her speech gave the edge. Her words were too detailed, yet the slight smirk on Yasenia's lips and the light frown on Leader Fu's brows were enough of a hint, even for those who didn't understand.

'Why did Ghana gave spoke so objectively? She just showed that her previous insults were not just words without meaning but a truth that he can't now use against her. Now, the Astral Sky Clan has the advantage in the conversation! '

Leader Fu didn't instantly answer Yasenia's previous provocations to use them later against her. After all, Yasenia didn't hold back one bit, and when discussing cooperation, no matter how superficial, giving face to the other party was essential.

Now, after Ghana explained all the factors he didn't consider, it was easy to see why Yasenia would react that way, and she had a witness from his side to corroborate her words and narrative.

The worst part was that it was a factual narrative, meaning they spoke truths. Therefore, the way to reverse this now was impossible.

In short, Yasenia slapped his face, and Ghana told him that there was a venomous insect on his cheek, and thus, she saved his life, making it impossible to be angry after being slapped.

If it weren't because his position as the City Lord, Leader Fu feared that he would have to say thank you after the slap.

However, not everyone in the room was smart enough to identify the subtleties of Ghana's speech.

Fu Liang wasn't impressed.

Although there wasn't anything essentially wrong with what Ghana said, Fu Laing felt they somehow diminished their status.

In other words, she felt like she had something stuck in her throat after listening, with no way to cough or swallow it.

Moreover, wanting to ruin Yasenia's intentions to ally with Koran City, she didn't hold back and spoke aloud. "Leader Fu, miss Ghana's actions have made our city lose face. The people may think it is unsafe to live in our city because we didn't dare to face a group that endangered many lives and livelihoods."

Fu Liang had some skill to reach her current position, so her words weren't entirely without reason. She continued righteously. "Although they may have a reason for their actions, we mustn't forget the damage they've done to our citizens! No matter what, they must compensate us enough to calm the masses!"

Leader Fu frowned at first, but after hearing her, he felt she had a point. The two hundred lives lost could be justified as self-defense, but the damage they've done couldn't.

Leader Fu felt he had all the reasons to demand high compensation for the millions of living beings in Koran City. 'Right, I still have the moral high ground.'

Yasenia, on the other hand, thought differently.

Although what Fu Liang said is true, it is also true that the situation was still within controllable parameters. She knew that what her energy absorption damaged were very low-level items. Anyone hurt by infrastructural damage could be attributed back to Koran City for using such low-level things to build houses.

Therefore, she said. "While I know what miss Fu Liang said is true, City Lord must not be confused. Our ritual only damages mortal materials. If anyone in this city suffered because of it, wouldn't City Lord have to explain why people still lived with such a poor quality of life?"

Yasenia then snorted without letting Leader Fu speak. "Moreover, when have I said that I didn't want to give compensation? I've come here with sincerity. Since the beginning, I've always tried to act polite and use my personal resources to pay for the damage. However, let's not act stupid for a second. Since the beginning of our conversation, Leader Fu has been trying to take advantage of us using multiple tricks."
