Chapter 987: The Five Clans Shake Hands and Talk
Xiao Shu’s question to the Nine-Tailed Fox was like a bucket of cold water poured on the heads of super demon beasts. It immediately made them come back to their senses.
They immediately calmed down.
After carefully thinking about the flattery these Beast Tamers had showered them with, they felt that these Beast Tamers were even more hypocritical and despicable.
How were these Beast Tamers’ current actions different from Goldfeather Nana lying to the Lord of All Demons back then?
!!
Most of the super demon beasts present were old demons who had lived for ten thousand years. They had all experienced the battle ten thousand years ago.
They had always hated these Beast Tamers.
They were descendants nurtured by Goldfeather Nana. Goldfeather Nana’s despicable and cunning genes flowed in their blood.
Just now, they actually believed in these Beast Tamers’ words.
The reason they believed the Beast Tamers’ words wasn’t because they were stupid and easy to deceive. It was because Sheng Xiao’s words made them realize that if the demon beast race and the four races continued to fight like this, both sides would suffer.
Moreover, as the Creator, Holy Spirit Goldfeather had already died, so the spiritual power of the Holy Spirit Continent would quickly be exhausted.
On the Holy Spirit Continent, where spiritual power was spa.r.s.e, it was impossible for the demon beast race to regain their former glory.
Therefore, for the sake of their descendants and the future of the Demon Beast Clan, they could only put down their grudges and strive to make peace with the four clans.
Xiao Shu looked at Mo Xiao with trust.
After being betrayed by Goldfeather Nana once, he really didn’t dare to trust the Beast Tamers anymore. However, he was still willing to trust Mo Xiao for once.
Firstly, they were both demon beasts. Secondly, Mo Xiao was a wise person, different from those cunning Beast Tamers.
Seeing the trust in Xiao Shu’s eyes, Mo Xiao raised his right hand and gently stroked Xiao Shu’s long red hair as he said, “Yes!”
Just one word was enough to express his att.i.tude.
Hearing Mo Xiao’s answer, Xiao Shu lowered his eyes and sighed. “I understand.”
If the Demon Beast Clan could get along peacefully with the four clans, he was willing to take another risk.
Xiao Shu turned around. Xiao Shu’s dignified and cold gaze landed on Sheng Lingfeng, Dino, and the other experts again as he said, “The demon beast race is very willing to get along peacefully with the four races and share resources. But I have a request!”
The powerhouses exchanged looks before Sheng Lingfeng said, “I wonder what other requests you have. We are willing to hear them.”
Nodding his head, Xiao Shu said in a neutral tone, “I will never believe any promises made by you Beast Tamers again. If everyone sincerely wants to accept the Demon Beast Clan and reach a state of peaceful coexistence with our Demon Beast Clan, then I suggest that each clan elect a few Beast Tamer representatives. Let’s sit down and draft a detailed peace treaty for the various situations that might arise from the coexistence of the five clans.”
After a pause, Xiao Shu looked at the Beast Tamers standing behind Sheng Lingfeng and the others. His att.i.tude suddenly became unyielding as he said, “After the peace treaty is drawn up, all the Beast Tamers of the various races and all the demon beasts in the abyss that have condensed Monster Cores must sign the contract and swear on their Beast Souls and the souls of their ancestors that they will abide by the contract. If anyone dares to violate the contract, their entire clan will be exterminated!”
Once bitten, twice shy.
Goldfeather Nana’s betrayal traumatized Xiao Shu.
He was willing to get along with the four races, but he wouldn’t trust people that easily.
For this, he had no choice but to make this request.
When the Beast Tamers heard Xiao Shu’s suggestion, they fell silent.
Using the souls of their ancestors and their own Beast Souls to swear an oath meant it couldn’t be violated. If they did, they would definitely suffer divine retribution.
Who would dare to agree so easily?
The Beast Tamers’ reactions made Xiao Shu mock, “Heh, when it’s time for you guys to show your determination, all of you become cowards.”
The four races were indeed as despicable and cunning as ever!
Just as Xiao Shu lost his good impression of the Beast Tamers again, a clear and deep voice sounded from the Sheng family’s camp—
“I agree.” It was Sheng Xiao’s voice.
Immediately after, Yu Huang said, “The Yin Clan also agrees.”
The two of them said at almost the same time.
Xiao Shu looked at them with a gentle gaze.
Sheng Lingfeng looked at his son and daughter-in-law helplessly.
His son and daughter-in-law had grown up and were very independent now. As a father, he was both relieved and helpless.
Shaking his head, Sheng Lingfeng said, “The Sheng family agrees with the Lord of All Demons’ suggestion.”
Since the Sheng family, the number one family in the cultivation world, had expressed their stance, the other families also expressed their stance.
“We agree too.”
…
That night, all the Beast Tamer warriors left the far north and returned to their hometown.
Only a group of Beast Tamers were left in charge of the construction of the monument.
The next morning, the five clans sent a total of 11 representatives to hold a secret meeting for three days and three nights in Conference Room 1 of the Alliance Headquarters Building.
These 11 representatives were Xiao Shu and Mo Xiao of the Demon Beast Clan, Sheng Lingfeng and Di Ruofeng of the Human Clan, Grand Master Bai Xi and Grand Master Dietrich of the Beast Clan, Prime Emperor Dino of the Merman Clan, Cara.s.so of the Elve Clan, and His Majesty.
Three days later, at noon, a doc.u.ment with the “Five Races Peace Treaty” written on it was sent from the secretary’s office of the Alliance Headquarters to every Beast Tamer’s email.
At two in the afternoon that day, a live broadcast was held on the Beast Tamer official website.
The 11 experts representing the five races appeared in Conference Room 3 of the Alliance Headquarters Building together. Under the live broadcast camera, they signed the peace treaty between the five races and swore in public that they would always abide by and support the peace treaty.
Then, the 11 representatives shook hands and made peace.
The scene of them shaking hands was captured by the reporters and quickly broadcasted through all the major television stations.
Soon, all the citizens of the Holy Spirit Continent knew that the Demon Beast Clan was about to leave the Abyssal Origin Forest and live with the four clans.
To be honest, when they first heard this ridiculous news, the commoners felt uneasy. They were afraid that if they went out to throw trash at night, they would be eaten by hungry and cruel demon beasts.
Panic spread among the crowd, and this emotion was magnified infinitely on social media.
Vivian saw screenshots of the terrifying comments posted by the netizens on various social media platforms and sent them to Yu Huang. After seeing the screenshots of all kinds of conspiracy theories, Yu Huang shook her head and opened her Weibo account, which she hadn’t logged in for a long time.
On this day, Yu Huang’s Weibo had an update for the first time in a few years—
Yu Huang V: “In the vast and boundless universe, there is a planet called Earth. Humans are the rulers of that planet. In the understanding of Earthlings, humans with two wings are monsters. Humans with human bodies, ponytails, snake tails, lion heads, and human bodies are also monsters. Mermen with human bodies and fishtails are also monsters.”
In the eyes of Earthlings, the Holy Spirit Continent, where the four races could coexist, was an absurd and terrifying world.
Everyone, why don’t you all calm down and focus on living your current life? When you’re old and look back at your youth, you might have a different state of mind.]
Yu Huang was implicitly mocking these netizens for being short-sighted and intolerant.
Seeing Yu Huang’s words, the wise people stopped reading the comments on social media and began to consider the entire matter in a rational manner.
As for the idiots, in exasperation, they left comments insulting Yu Huang.
They kept cursing Yu Huang and even her mother. When they clicked to confirm sending the message, they saw a notification pop up on their phone screen—
Your message contains sensitive vulgar words. Please re-edit it.
Everyone: d.a.m.n!
…
No matter how much the commoners objected to the fact that they were afraid of the Demon Beast Clan integrating into the lives of the four clans, the peace treaty had already been signed. They had no choice but to accept the existence of the Demon Beast Clan.
Half a month later, under the witness of the reporters, media, and countless Beast Tamers, the boundary wall that had stood outside the Abyssal Origin Forest for ten thousand years was pushed down by the 11 representatives.
Boom!
The wall fell, sending dust flying.
After the dust settled, the demon beasts standing inside the wall couldn’t help but look outside of the wall. The Beast Tamers standing outside the wall also looked inside curiously.
They were all extremely curious about the environment that the other party lived in.
After ten thousand years, the Demon Beast Clan met the Beast Tamers of the four clans again.
The last time they met, blood flowed like a river.
This time, they shook hands and made up.
