Chapter 624: Chapter 283: Trust

Zhou Zhengde noticed Wang Jixuan’s hesitation and quietly asked, "Should we consult the Commander?"

This was actually to help Wang Jixuan out of a jam;

to pass the responsibility on to someone better equipped to handle the pressure.

Wang Jixuan suddenly chuckled, "I’m just thinking about how to refuse in a way that seems more thorough. This fellow is trying to hold me hostage with five billion people, using a promise that may never be fulfilled in exchange for a core circuit we already have... Blade Beasts have evolved even in cunning."

The Spiritual Ability User from the Beast God Sect asked calmly, "So, have our negotiations failed?"

"This is not something to discuss unless you bring forth genuine sincerity and find a way to resurrect this world."

Wang Jixuan quickly said through the War Puppet:

"To be honest, Old Sophie’s core circuit isn’t of much use to me.

"The reason I’m holding onto it now is purely to contain you.

"If you can’t even resurrect the hundreds of billions of people you’ve slaughtered, there’s no need to talk about subsequent compensation."

The Spiritual Ability User from the Beast God Sect pondered seriously.

Angel stared at the War Puppet’s core mask for a long time;

she had confirmed it, this person was not Xing Dian.

Xing Dian couldn’t possibly have this perspective, wouldn’t speak in this tone, and certainly wouldn’t taunt a formidable enemy in such a nearly mocking manner.

But the Spiritual Energy within him was so similar to Xing Dian’s, whether in total amount, or the resonance among those Spiritual Energy Circuits...

Was Xing Dian being controlled by the Black Storm?

Angel felt a shock in her heart.

She decided not to expose this matter, to prevent the Black Storm from targeting her as well.

Angel couldn’t hear what the Beast God Sect’s Spiritual Ability User was saying from a few hundred meters away, but she could hear what ’Xing Dian’ was saying next to her.

’Xing Dian’ said again, "Although we can’t negotiate based on the terms you proposed, this is a rare opportunity today, so why don’t we discuss another condition... You can have your puppet come forward."

The Spiritual Ability User from the Beast God Sect flew forward, stopping a few tens of meters away.

At this distance, both recording devices and Angel along with several other Spiritual Ability Users could hear the Spiritual Ability User’s voice clearly.

It asked, "What are your terms?"

"The Blade Beasts must cease their attacks on humans, aim their weapons at the Arctic Circle, and after annihilating the three Spirit Cultivators of the Bright Wings Council Court, leave this planet and never return."

The form of Wang Jixuan’s War Puppet leaned slightly forward:

"If you can do this, I can assure you that in the future I won’t act to completely exterminate your Blade Beast Civilization.

"As you said, I’m just a passerby."

Angel:...

What a boastful statement!

No, the Spiritual Ability User from the Beast God Sect, controlled by the Blade Beast, was seriously considering it!

Angel felt a bit disoriented.

Even so, the Spiritual Ability User from the Beast God Sect added, "Likewise, you cannot guarantee your promise since not completely exterminating might still leave one or two Blade Beasts alive."

"That depends on your choice."

"This negotiation clearly failed," the Spiritual Ability User from the Beast God Sect sighed, "The ceremony to awaken the leader is ready, so I will proceed immediately. Though it’s my impulsive decision, we’ve already invested too much to stop now."

Wang Jixuan nodded slowly, "Actually, you shouldn’t have come today; coming only makes it awkward for both sides."

"Actually, I want to seize the opportunity to ask... what exactly is the Heavenly Dao?"

"The Heavenly Dao is impartial and selfless," Wang Jixuan said plainly, "If you can’t understand these eight words, you can’t comprehend the Heavenly Dao."

"The Heavenly Dao is impartial... The Heavenly Dao is impartial..."

The Spiritual Ability User from the Beast God Sect nodded slowly, then closed its eyes, subtle ripples appearing on its body.

Wang Jixuan acted decisively, a Long Spear appeared in his hand, as he thrust forward with his right hand, the Long Spear shot forward. The Spiritual Ability User from the Beast God Sect had just opened its eyes; confusion reflected in them, with no time to retreat, its abdomen was pierced through, ejecting a massive Crystal Core.

That body convulsed and fell to the ground, destroyed by laser cannonfire from all sides.

Wang Jixuan opened his right hand, the Long Spear flew back to him and was stored in the storage bracelet the War Puppet carried.

"Not bad, already dealt with a negotiation envoy."

Behind the mask, the War Puppet grinned grimly, turning to look at Angel.

Angel was not frightened, and quickly said:

"After all, the Blade Beasts merely came to threaten, without enough sincerity, whereas we came this time with no arrogance or intimidation, just genuine willingness to temporarily set aside past internal human faction disagreements and jointly face the challenge of the Pillar Blade Beast."

Beside her, Li Weiqi stared at their team leader as if seeing a monster.

Ah, this...

That was not what you said when you came!

The wise recognize the times;

even a sweet little team leader can adapt.

...

Wang Jixuan was well aware that his War Puppet had inadvertently revealed that ’Xing Dian’ was deceased.

But he didn’t mind this minor issue. After dealing with the Spiritual Ability User from the Beast God Sect sent by the Blade Beasts, he simply went back to the Seventh Floor.

He still had a host of matters to deal with; negotiating with the Spiritual Ability City was sufficient to leave to Dongfang Zhenghong and Zhou Zhengde.

Master Wang instructed the War Puppet to cultivate in the corner, while the main body jumped back into the courtyard to continue repairing the Demon Suppression Tower.

That Angel was thoroughly bluffed.

Or not so much bluffed;

the arrival of a Blade Beast envoy was quite fortuitous, something the Spiritual Ability City Spiritual Ability Users hadn’t encountered before, which is why they were easily subdued.

Wang Jixuan considered as he worked busily.
