Chapter 75: The Foundations of the Star Dou Great Forest
The people of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Demon Eye Magic Tree were secretly plotting in the room.
Soon, Yu Yuanzhen also understood a bit of the Demon Eye Magic Tree's confidence.
He wasn't sure if the Star Dou Great Forest truly had something that could confidently kill Lan Tian.
But it did make him a little tempted.
Benefits were only one aspect.
The main reason was the trouble caused by Yu Xiaogang and the Clear Sky Sect.
If they weren't careful, they might truly be ensnared by Blue Silver City.
Another key point was that he didn't want such a powerful Blue Silver King to exist.
Finally, he had no intention of doing this alone, so he chose to find others to share the risk.
"Heh, this matter can't be accomplished by just us."
Yu Yuanzhen considered the conditions proposed by the Demon Eye Magic Tree.
Perhaps they could pretend to cooperate with the people of Blue Silver City, leave the city together, and then betray them in secret.
He would directly drag the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School into it.
Although they were the ones who caused the trouble, it was originally their business too.
Moreover, cooperation between their two Sects could better restrict the Spirit Beasts.
The Demon Eye Magic Tree had no objections to this; or rather, this was what he wanted to see.
By directly causing chaos among the Spirit Masters of the human World, they could do as they pleased.
"Humans are truly interesting; no matter the era, they love internal strife."
There were also conflicts among Spirit Beasts, but they were more often due to survival instincts and territory.
Humans, however, might scheme and become envious over trivial matters.
The two sides reached a consensus, and Ning Fengzhi of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School also received an invitation, arriving somewhat strangely at the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's territory.
Considering that the other party might have something confidential to discuss, he was only accompanied by Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo.
In the room, there were only Yu Yuanzhen and his brother, as well as Yu Xiaogang, who was still kneeling on the ground and couldn't get up, and a stranger.
"Sect Master Yu."
"School Master Ning."
Ning Fengzhi was gentle and elegant; after greeting them, he was invited to sit down.
His gaze fell upon the Demon Eye Magic Tree, who was sitting nearby drinking tea.
He didn't seem to be a member of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, at least not one of the publicly known members.
As for Yu Xiaogang, who was kneeling on the ground, Ning Fengzhi simply assumed he was undergoing family discipline and pretended not to know.
"This is...?"
"This is a clone of the Myriad Demon King, a 450,000-year Spirit Beast from the Star Dou Great Forest."
Yu Yuanzhen looked at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile people, as if expecting to see them show an expression of disbelief, just as he had earlier.
And indeed, these words made Ning Fengzhi and the others struggle with their expressions for a moment, quickly exchanging glances.
"Sect Master Yu isn't joking, is he?"
Ning Fengzhi looked at Yu Yuanzhen, while the Demon Eye Magic Tree didn't continue observing.
If this identity was real, even he wouldn't dare to look too much.
Moreover, he was already feeling a bit insecure.
"I wouldn't joke about such a matter. This issue, in fact, is somewhat related to my rebellious son."
"Additionally, it's also somewhat related to Tang Xiao, who died today..."
"The situation is like this..." Yu Yuanzhen spoke with a helpless expression, recounting Yu Xiaogang and Tang Xiao's cooperation.
His tone carried a sense of disappointment, as if he wanted to slap Yu Xiaogang to death if he could.
These successive words made Ning Fengzhi's mouth twitch, and Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo wished they could kill that fellow.
It seemed they had been inexplicably represented without their knowledge.
"Yu Yuanzhen, you must give us an explanation for this."
"It can't just be brushed aside for no reason."
Bone Douluo couldn't hold back and spoke directly.
If Yu Xiaogang wasn't Yu Yuanzhen's son, he would definitely send him on his way right now.
This thing, he dared to meddle in the cooperation of their Upper Three Sects?
And it was clear that they had been more optimistic about Blue Silver City before.
It was just that the strength the other party displayed now exceeded their imagination, making them a little uneasy.
The attitude of the other two members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was very clear.
This made Yu Yuanzhen's expression stiffen, feeling a bit helpless.
"I understand..."
"Now I just want to know the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's stance. My thought is that, given the current situation, it's best for our two Sects to advance and retreat together."
"So, let's hear your opinions. If you trust Blue Silver City, I will hand over this rebellious son."
Yu Yuanzhen didn't remain stiff for long and quickly nodded in response. After speaking about his rebellious son, his gaze turned to the Myriad Demon King, who was calmly drinking tea and watching the show.
"Of course, this clone of the Myriad Demon King must also inform Blue Silver City."
The other party listened to Yu Yuanzhen's words without a hint of wavering, as if he wasn't the one being spoken about.
The several Super Douluo around him seemed to exert no pressure on him.
This demeanor also made people somewhat believe his identity.
"As for the other option, I believe you are also aware..."
"If we cooperate, it might truly be achievable, and we won't worry about the Spirit Beasts reneging."
"They promised all Spirit Bones would be ours; they would only be responsible for killing and that transformed Spirit Beast."
Yu Yuanzhen's words came out one after another, like a bell in the room, directly injecting into the hearts of the others.
"Heh, Sect Master Yu certainly knows how to drag people into trouble."
"This originally had nothing to do with us."
Ning Fengzhi didn't ponder for long; with a quick turn of his mind, he gave his response.
It was as if he was also evaluating which choice would bring better benefits.
"What's there to choose? Yu Yuanzhen, you old man, don't harbor any other ideas."
"Just hand over that brat from your family; he won't live."
Bone Douluo was even more direct from the side, clearly very angry at Yu Xiaogang.
He wanted to send the other party to his death.
"Sect Master Yu, the most terrifying thing about Blue Silver City isn't a few Titled Douluo."
"You should know that."
Ning Fengzhi's eyes darted around, looking somewhat helpless.
The strength of the other Titled Douluo, though formidable, wasn't so great that one couldn't see their limits.
There was only Lan Tian, who had displayed something special today.
Now, probably only Spirit Hall had the confidence to deal with the other party.
He was also waiting to watch the show.
Being dragged into the 'play' now was very frustrating.
"That depends on His Excellency the Myriad Demon King. He guaranteed that as long as the person is brought near the Star Dou Great Forest, the Blue Silver King will be handed over to them."
Yu Yuanzhen spoke directly.
His gaze also turned to the Myriad Demon King.
This made the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and others, who had been ignoring the Myriad Demon King, also look at the pale-faced Myriad Demon King.
His gloomy appearance made it hard for anyone to have a good impression.
"Do you know what power that Blue Silver King used today?"
Sword Douluo was the first to speak, curious about the other party's power today.
He was very curious.
At first, he thought it was Poison Douluo's poison, but later dismissed it.
Then he thought it might be mental force, or some other hard-to-detect presence.
But there was no conclusion.
"It's nothing more than mental force or some kind of trap-like ability set up on him. All abilities are paper tigers in the face of absolute strength."
The Demon Eye Magic Tree looked at their attitudes, clearly understanding what they meant, and simply started to make things up. In fact, with his ability, he had already determined today that Lan Tian hadn't used any mental-type abilities.
But that didn't stop him from misleading people.
"I know what you're worried about, so I'll just say it directly: besides those two visible youngsters and myself, there are at least two other 100,000-Year Soul Beasts acting in secret."
"The one arranged to deal with that Blue Silver King is a 400,000-year Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear. Not to mention a Rank 94, even a Rank 99 Titled Douluo, Xiong Jun is confident he can contend with."
"Another Spirit Beast's cultivation is even above mine and Xiong Jun's. As long as we hold the other party back, a mere Rank 94 Spirit Master will definitely not be able to leave the Star Dou Great Forest."
Besides misleading them, he also planned to give them some reassurance, revealing a little information.
"Even if the other party has some secret methods, there must be limits. With the situation today, where killing a Titled Douluo was like stepping on an ant, your human World might as well revere him as supreme. Do you still need other existences?"
His dark eyes flickered with mental force, and the surging power carried full confidence, as if to infect everyone else.
It also revealed some of the Star Dou Great Forest's hidden depths.
Just these 100,000-Year Soul Beasts could absolutely cause a devastating catastrophe for the human World.
This sent a chill down everyone's spines.
