After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tamer

Chapter 535 - 388: Be Gentler Next Time.

The reception hall was deathly quiet.

Some had accelerated heartbeats, some wore faces of terror, and others were exceedingly wary.

Master Helian Hong was an Ascension from the Jin Tao Domain with an illustrious reputation, a lofty status, and was like a spiritual leader in the Jin Tao Domain.

How dare he,

Was he not afraid of the Jin Tao Domain's retaliation?

But soon, some people realized that it was not just them, even the Ascension Realm elders had grave expressions thereafter.

They were even more fearful in their hearts.

"I think I am quite reasonable as a person. As long as someone is not incredibly stupid, I think my tolerance is quite high," Chen Xing said, looking towards the old crone at the back of the group. "You also needn't keep staring with those big eyes of your Beast Taming creature, constantly looking around; that glaring gaze is quite disgusting."

The old crone was silent for a moment before speaking, "You cannot withstand a new war. We represent the Seven Domains. If we all die here, our Seven Domains will go to full-scale war with you. You recently conquered the Burning Sky Domain, and if a large-scale war breaks out with us, it will greatly affect your Great Xia's image in the Exotic Region."

Chen Xing, upon hearing this, did not get angry; instead, he just smiled. "And then?"

"All of you will die, and the Seven Domains behind you will be destroyed by me; everyone related to you will be buried because of your decisions today!" Chen Xing said coldly, "What happens to our Xia Country afterward is a future concern. But, before that, you will definitely die, old woman. I thought you would be smarter, but then you say something like this."

"Well said. Our Xia Country does not advocate for war, but we do not fear war! If you think to threaten us with war, then I can only reply that you have been using the wrong method from the start!" Ying Wushang strode in from outside. @@novelbin@@

The one-eyed bird on the old crone's shoulder looked at Ying Wushang, then whispered in the old crone's ear.

"Can see through the newcomer, but still can't see through this young one, huh?"

The old crone's eyes were deep; she initially thought there was some method on Xia Country's side that shielded her Beast Taming creature, but now she saw that it wasn't Xia Country's doing, but rather this young man's Beast Taming creature was too strong, preventing her own from seeing through it.

"Then, I wonder what terms you are willing to negotiate on." The old crone stepped forward, and the others around her stepped aside.

"Law Crystals, I want ten thousand Law Crystals," Chen Xing asked boldly.

The old crone was stunned for a moment, and it took her a while to remember what Law Crystals were, mainly because they were too niche and rarely used.

What did he want Law Crystals for, did they have some other use she didn't know about?

"Are you joking?" the old crone shook her head.

"Their uses are few, and your powers, having been inherited for so long, must have collected a lot," Chen Xing stated assertively, "I mean, ten thousand Law Crystals for one life, thirty-two people here, that's three hundred and twenty thousand crystals."

"..."

"You might as well have outright asked to kill us, even if we scoured the entire domain, we couldn't find ten thousand; asking for three hundred and twenty thousand, you clearly had no intention of letting us go," someone said despairingly.

"Shut up," the old crone reprimanded quietly.

This man clearly intended to ask for the moon in order to pay a pittance.

If he was willing to propose terms, then there was room for negotiation.

She turned to Chen Xing and said, "You must know how difficult it is to produce Law Crystals. Three hundred and twenty thousand crystals, even if we killed all the Elemental Lords of every Elemental Plane, we might not gather that many. Our seven powers together gather one thousand Law Crystals to let this matter slide; how does that sound to you?"

Actually able to gather a thousand?

Chen Xing was somewhat surprised internally; truly, they were long-established powers.

He initially thought these seven houses could cobble together maybe a hundred crystals at best.

If they could get a thousand crystals.

It was possible to directly stack the understanding of several Laws to the tenth level, with Sìxiàng's Law of Darkness and the Law of Speed reaching the tenth level first.

Then came Taotie's Law of Strength, followed by Dong Jun's Law of Light.

These four Laws were first stacked to the tenth level.

How far one could go in the Ascension Realm depended on the depth of one's comprehension of the Laws.

The deeper the comprehension of the Laws, the further one could go.

"You can send one person back to fetch the goods. You can leave once the goods arrive. In the meantime, it's best if you stay here. Food will be delivered to you regularly. I hope you do not leave this reception area at all," he said.

After Chen Xing finished speaking, he ordered Sìxiàng to stay here, and if anyone tried to leave midway, they would die.

...

After leaving the reception hall, Wang Yuanling and Ying Wushang went together to a small courtyard in Longbei City.

Emperor Xuan Yi, Qin Ning, and Lv Jinyin were all there.

Along with Ying Wushang and Chen Xing, more than half of Great Xia's Ascended converged here.

"I have already made the offer. Are you sure you want me to propose it myself? Xia Country doesn't want anything?"

Emperor Xuan Yi said, "Law Crystals are not an urgently needed resource. Although precious, they are of little use to them, so it is not difficult to ask them to hand over the majority. As for other items, there is nothing urgently needed. It is good to end this matter in such a way for the time being, just as she said. Currently, we are indeed not suited to engage in large-scale conflicts with other human factions in the Exotic Region."

Otherwise, barely having conquered the Skyfire Realm, we would immediately face large-scale conflicts in all seven realms.

How would the other powers in the Exotic Region view Great Xia then?

The martial virtue of Xia Country is indeed abundant.

Moreover, Xia Country currently does not have the capability to conquer the seven realms. Even if it demolished the high echelons of the seven realms, it would only end up benefiting the surrounding forces for nothing. Destruction is always easier than conquest.

And if it destroyed the seven realms all at once, then Xia Country would truly be in the limelight.

All eyes of the entire Exotic Region's forces would be fixated on Xia Country, including those deities preparing to revive and the top Ascended who have survived from Ancient Times.

Even the Dragon Clan preserves Ascended Dragon Kings through small worlds. Other forces likely have similar methods.

"What we lack most now is time. Time will always be on our side," Lv Jinyin agreed.

Chen Xing was indifferent, as these people were no match for his Beast Taming now. Once the Law Crystals arrived, his Beast Taming would receive another enhancement.

In a while, they might not even have the qualifications to face his Beast Taming.

His family was also on Blue Star. The Ascended could not enter Blue Star, so it was quite safe there at the moment.

Chen Xing waved his hand, "I have no objections. If you think it's okay, then it's fine. If there's nothing else, I'll be going back first."

Suddenly, Chen Xing felt as if he had overlooked something.

On his way, he suddenly remembered.

"We had agreed to find a suitable new head for the Demon Eagle. I forgot about it because I was too thrilled during the killing," he said.

"No, it was all Sìxiàng's fault. Sìxiàng directly crushed the head of the opposing Ascension Beast Tame. Hmm... next time, I'll ask Sìxiàng to be more gentle."
