When Sabre-tooth Tiger King saw that the elder was so flustered, he immediately consoled her.
They will not be using it for free. They will give us some benefit.
It’s still a no!
That elder still objected, saying,
Humans are all crafty and low creatures. We definitely cannot have any dealings with them! No matter what, we will not agree.
You all have no right to say that you object.
Sima You Yue had yet to speak before Halcyon spoke. He unrestrainedly released his aura, flattening those elders to the floor until they could not even breathe.
What- what pressure is this?
Those elders were shocked. They were the strongest generation, but they were rendered immobile when the other party merely released his aura!
Could this be the rumored sacred beast?
Everyone onsite had never before experienced the pressure a sacred beast could exert, and their hearts were filled with fear.
Halcyon looked at the sabre-tooth tigers on the floor, saying,
Our discussion is merely to give you face. Do you really think you have the right to discuss things with us?
We- we…
You’re merely sabre-toothed tigers who have lived a bit longer, but you keep harping on your age and seniority. Even the Beast King doesn’t take heed of you!
Halcyon said coldly.
No, we…
No, what?
Halcyon said,
we initially wanted to discuss about using your cultivation ground, but since you are unwilling, we won’t need to discuss anymore. We’ll directly use your ground for our own. Any opinion?
We… do not.
The other elders did not continue to object, but those who had objected in the beginning continued to object.
We can’t?
Halcyon voice got louder. As he spoke, he released the aura suppressing them and casually flicked his sleeves. Those elders were sent flying and rolled heavily on the ground.
Ugh-
When did the sabre-tooth tigers ever get treated this way. Their rage immediately went to their head as they crawled up to attack Halcyon.
Ah-
Before they even came close to Halcyon, they were bound by something which made them feel that their surroundings were shrinking. Their bodies were beginning to distort under the pressure, and those at the side could hear the sound of their bones snapping.
Peng-
Just as they were on their last breath, Halcyon released them. Then, he turned to those elder, saying,
Does anyone else object?
No.
This time, nobody dared to voice their objection. He just stood there and it looked like he didn’t do anything, but he had beaten those elders not a single part of their bodies had remained unharmed. It wouldn’t even be difficult for him to kill them off at all. Who would dare to voice any objection?
The gaze that the Sabre-toothed Tiger King looked at the elders with was unkind. He had initially invited them over to discuss some things, but things had developed to this stage. The other party was no longer going to talk about any cooperation anymore. It really infuriated him to death.
That- that… what you said before about taking us out of here. Does it still count?
Sabre-tooth Tiger King asked warily.
What?
Taking us out of here?
Leave place? Is this true?
When the elders heard what Sabre-tooth Tiger said, they all cried out simultaneously with eyes filled with shock.
That’s right. I initially said that I would take you all out of here in exchange for using your lands to cultivate. It’s a pity that you were not willing. As such, we can only take it by force.
Sima You Yue said with a shrug.
That- we… it’s not…
A few of the grand uncles’ were left in agony. How did they know that they would lose this chance to leave just because they said a few words!
Sima You Yue looked at their remorseful expressions with satisfaction and pretended to cough before saying,
Do you want to leave this place?
Are you willing to bring us out of here?
An elder asked.
I can bring you out of here. However, you have to pay a price.
Sima You Yue said,
If you want to leave this place, you have to give me compensation.
You- didn’t you say earlier that it would be usage of our cultivation pond?
An elder said softly.
That was the condition before but it has changed.
Sima You Yue said.
What kind of compensation do you want? We have many pill ingredients that you humans like.
Sabre-toothed Tiger King said.
No no no.
Sima You Yue wagged a finger and said,
If you want to leave, you have to give me a period of time of your freedom.
A period of time of our freedom? What does that mean?
An elder said.
Very simple…
Half an hour later, Sima You Yue and Sabre-toothed Tiger King, King Flame, reached a consensus. Sima You Yue would lead him out of here, while he would promise her a hundred years.
Of course, Sima You Yue and the other’s use of their cultivation pond was not one of the compensations.
Although Sabre-tooth tiger King was secretly a bit upset, he still arranged everything very nicely for Sima You Yue. That was because they would have no way of leaving this place if they cancelled their agreement due to their displeasure.
Especially so for those elders. Their lives were quickly reaching their end with no way of breaking through the divine beast rank. If they were unable to ever break through, they would die of old age.
If this could leave this place, they would no longer be under any restrictions. If they managed to break through to a sacred beast rank, they would gain at least a thousand years of life. If they were able to increase in rank, they would have even more power upon breaking through to becoming a sacred beast along with their increase in lifespan.
As a result, Sima You Yue was practically a venerated emperor to them. They specially sent some sabre-toothed tigers to protect them in order to prevent them from being affected by the outside world.
After this, King Flame personally brought Sima You Yue and the others to the cultivation pond.
As expected, it was the antithesis of the Snow Wolves’. Sabre-tooth Tiger’s cultivation grounds was a pond as well. The only difference was that the pond water was red.
This water is really strange!
Fatty Qu looked at the water and leaned over, stretching forth a hand to touch the red water.
This isn’t water. It been affected by the fire qi. It just looks like water.
Sima You Yue said.
That’s right.
King Flame said.
You guys can cultivate here. I’ll get my sabre-toothed tigers to guard the area. We won’t let anyone disturb you.
Okay.
Sima You Yue nodded her head at him,
When we leave this place, we will bring you out of here.
King Flame retreated and a few elders were still waiting outside for him. When they saw that he had exited, they surrounded him.
King, what did that young master say?
You can relax. He was very satisfied when he saw the cultivation pond. He said that he would take us with him if we did not bother them.
King Flame left after speaking. After walking a few steps, he stopped and continued looking in front of him, saying,
You are elders, and I respect you because you are more senior than me. But do not forget, I am the King.
After speaking, he left without turning back.
The elders exchanged glances and saw the agony reflected in each other’s eyes. It looked like this situation had truly angered him!
