Chapter 1094 - 1080: Negotiations
"King, if you can achieve it, then please go ahead. We will support your decision. Although I don't understand why the old King handed the King's Power to a human, since you have been recognized by the King's Power, we are willing to trust you."
At this moment, among the Seven Great Lords, an Exotic Beast that appeared as if made of stone spoke.
It had the strangest appearance at the scene.
Even Baiyu didn't know what category this creature belonged to.
However, Baiyu could discern from its words that the King's Power seemed to have its own consciousness, capable of choosing its master.
Apparently.
This Exotic Beast's King's Power is not simple. It's uncertain whether other territories possess similar entities.
It seems likely they do.
There should be a ruling King among a territory's Exotic Beasts.
"Very well, you may accompany me to Bailan City," Baiyu said solemnly.
For a moment.
The Seven Great Lords hesitated.
Within the Bailan Realm, they faced no danger, and few could kill them. But if they went to human territory, they might lose their lives at any time.
Regarding the slaying of a Lord.
The human high-level would undoubtedly have great interest.
"You should trust me; right now, only I can resolve this dispute. The Evil God has controlled your old King and dispatched the current scale of the beast tide. However, have you considered that once the beast tide ends, even if you destroy Bailan City, you will face countless human nations outside the Spirit Realm, intent on annihilation."
Baiyu said forcefully, "Trust me, when you destroy a city, you will not face cleansing but slaughter. At that time, even humans of the Sun Realm will act, while the Evil God secretly inciting all this will not aide you.
He merely wishes to see endless slaughter.
After all, life, blood, slaughter are the best catalysts for the Evil God's descent."
Undoubtedly.
The Seven Lords wavered at this moment.
Indeed, even if they destroyed this human city of Horag, they wouldn't last long, as humans' subsequent forces would surely intensify their entry into the area and begin counterattacking.
"I am not joking about your lives. Of course, you can choose not to trust me; the decision is entirely yours."
Baiyu spoke firmly.
The Seven Lords quickly devised a solution.
Some would go to negotiate.
The rest would remain in Horag, beginning to gather other Exotic Beasts to stop the beast tide.
Baiyu had no objections to this.
He was not asking the Lords to negotiate; rather, he wanted to prove to the higher-ups of Bailan City that Exotic Beasts could communicate and cooperate to solve conflicts.
White Dragon Sith transformed back into a Giant Dragon.
Baiyu, Yidi, along with the previously vocal Banshee and a rhinoceros, sat atop White Dragon Sith's back.
The Seven Lords could all take human form.
The rhinoceros species should be an Earth-Split Python Rhinoceros, an extremely powerful Exotic Beast. Once in human form, it became a burly man, though its horns stubbornly remained, making it resemble more a human corrupted and mutated.
Its name was Ola.
Next to it, the Banshee's transformation was less drastic; she merely folded the transparent thin wings on her back, looking more like a human female.
Once everyone was ready.
White Dragon Sith spread its wings and rapidly flew away, disappearing on the horizon.
...
The dragon's speed was extremely fast.
In just one afternoon, Baiyu approached Bailan City, though as he entered Bailan City's airspace, he felt many gazes cast upon him.
Earlier, he had no idea.
There were hidden Eclipse Moon Realm beings in Bailan City.
The secret gazes numbered at least ten, meaning there were ten Eclipse Moon realm beings in Bailan City.
However, those Eclipse Moon beings could not compare with someone like Loloya.
Baiyu felt he could likely take on several alone.
Yet.
Bailan City's airspace defense was not a joke.
Baiyu immediately revealed his presence, solemnly saying, "Descend."
Sith nodded.
A white Giant Dragon descended outside the city, causing the entire guard force to tense up.
Some even felt their breaths become shallow.
"A dragon, it's a real dragon."
"Gosh, could the Exotic Beasts be launching the beast tide ahead of schedule?"
The guards whispered on the city walls.
Soon.
The Commander of the City Guard Army hurriedly opened the city gate, arriving in front of White Dragon Sith.
This was because the Commander saw Baiyu; otherwise, he would never have opened the city gate.
"Mr. Bai, is this your newly tamed mount?"
The Commander asked, stuttering.
Baiyu shook his head, "This is the Lord of the Exotic Beasts from the Bailan Realm. It can stop the Exotic Beasts from launching the beast tide. I cannot explain it all right now; call Geman and arrange a suitable venue."
The Commander dared not block them.
He was pondering how to explain the Giant Dragon to the public, when Sith proactively shrank, quickly transforming into a lizard man.
This made handling easier.
With a hat to cover, they could enter the city.
But soon, the Commander worried again; if these Exotic Beasts rampaged in the city, his head would surely roll as the City Guard Army Commander.
Regardless of the damage afterward, he would certainly be dealt with.
"You should first call Geman out, then it's no longer your concern," Baiyu noticed his dilemma, immediately saying.
The Commander felt relieved, hurriedly running back to the city.
Within ten minutes.
Geman rushed out of the city, spotting Baiyu, Yidi, and the three human-like Exotic Beasts at the city gate. He was on high alert.
"Brother Geman, no need to be so afraid; the curse has been resolved."
Baiyu said, smiling.
Geman remained vigilant, "Mr. Bai, are you sure you aren't controlled by the Evil God? Not mutated?"
"How should I prove it? Should the City Lord spar with me? Or does the City Lord not believe in the Tower of Miracles?"
Baiyu smiled unchanged.
But Geman quickly realized that if Baiyu had truly encountered issues, the Tower of Miracles would certainly have already known and sent people to deal with it.
After all.
Behind Baiyu was that woman.
Known as the Divine Spirit on land, the strongest in the Northern Continent.
She would undoubtedly know if Baiyu had a problem. The Tower of Miracles' silence indicated Baiyu was not controlled by the Evil God.
Yet.
Returning to the city with Exotic Beasts, who were clearly rulers among them, was difficult to accept.
"Mr. Bai, I apologize for the offense; let's discuss further inside the city. This is not the place for talk,"
Geman extended the invitation once assured of Baiyu's normalcy.
He had just heard Baiyu mention.
The curse issue had been resolved!
