At the beginning, I traveled through the wilderness, and I controlled the beasts to survive.

Unexpectedly, Qing Dou shook his head and said in a tone that could not be refused: "I know that those people listen to your opinion. As long as you agree, they won't say anything more."

As soon as he said this, Suo Lin, who was lying on the ground, had a cold expression on his terrifying ugly face. He stood up quietly and protected Han Ning behind him.

Immediately afterwards, a stream of light shot from behind, and the undead jellyfish shield appeared in the palm of Suo Lian's hand. Not far away, the dark beast that was being corroded by the aurora let out a deafening roar, and the dark smoke screen showed signs of reappearing.

At this time, Han Ning's voice came: "Chief Qingdou, I respect you as a leader and a strong partner. I emphasize to you once again that I am not the one who speaks within the human race. When encountering major events, I need to go back and discuss with other companions.”

As he spoke, a thick black smoke screen spread across Han Ning's body, wrapping his, Yinyi, and Feilin's bodies.

At the same time, Qing Yao, who was floating not far away, sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere between the two and quickly came closer.

"Hey!! (Qing Dou! Lord Akatos once said that Han Ning is the most distinguished guest in the Emerald Forest, you are not allowed to be rude to him!)"

Dense green light chains shot out, excluding the ubiquitous aurora. Green sacred trees grew outward from Qing Yao's body, surrounding Han Ning, forming a small forest.

It bared its sharp dragon teeth and protected Han Ning behind it like a calf, staring at Qing Dou with a pair of vigilant eyes.

Even though the majestic emerald Aurora Dragon above, which was as majestic as a god, cast an oppressive gaze, Qing Yao still did not take a step back.

Only the constantly trembling scales showed that it was suffering from extremely terrifying pressure.

Qingdou watched this scene quietly without making any reaction.

After a few seconds of silence, he suddenly laughed, changed his previous serious expression, and said in a gentler tone: "Haha, Elder Qingyao was joking, how could I be rude to little brother Han Ning? In that case, then I Just waiting for his good news.”

Seeing Qing Dou soften his tone, Han Ning, who had always been tense, finally breathed a sigh of relief secretly.

Although he and his own soul beasts have grown in strength very quickly, they are still like ants when faced with an insect land overlord like Qing Dou.

Fortunately, Qing Dou did not choose to fight for the undead jellyfish shield. Han Ning guessed that maybe Qing Dou did not participate in the dark race's inherited soul weapon because he had just rescued nearly a thousand dragon-blooded people. .

"Well, then I will go back first and discuss specific matters with other members of my clan. Chief Qing Dou is guarding this place, so there is no need to worry about safety. Elder Qing Yao, let's go!"

Han Ning nodded, hurriedly greeted Suo Lin, who had turned into a puppet, summoned the egg cake, and quickly left Tianqi Gorge.

The strange red flame wiped out a piece of fire and disappeared at the end of the bright sky.

Qing Dou stared at the direction the egg cake was leaving, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Chief, why don't you just keep him? There isn't even a soul beast that has broken through to the monarch level on the human side. Elder Qing Yao alone can't stop us at all." Next to him, an elder from the Dragon Blood Clan, Couldn't help but whisper.

"Forget it, it's not the time to break up with humans yet. They are in charge of the Gray Demonic Whale, which is covered with advanced psychic magic circles. We still need to rely on them to leave the Insect Continent. Now the Second Elder is pressing hard. ...I had to do it as a last resort." Qingdou looked back and sighed softly.

As the leader of a group of people, how could he not know what would happen if he broke up with humans now? Unfortunately, as the blood sacrifice was about to begin, the second elder was at risk of being exposed at any time, so he had to make this last resort.

…

The breeze carrying the smell of rot passed through the protective shield arranged outside the egg cake and lightly blew over Han Ning's cheeks.

He looked ahead worriedly, with many thoughts in his mind.

The egg cake gradually flew out of the aurora, and darkness enveloped the earth again.

"Elder Qing Yao, thank you for your help just now." Han Ning did not expect that Qing Yao, a dragon blood elder who grew up in the Emerald Forest, would actually help him just now.

"Hey~ (You are Lord Akatos's friend and also my friend. As long as we are here, Qing Dou will not do anything to you!)" Qing Yao blinked and turned into a small glazed dragon, lying on Han Ning's side. On his shoulders, there were waves of pleasant dragon roars.

"I hope so." Han Ning smiled.

Inside Yeming City, there is still a scene of construction in full swing.

Hui Hui, as huge as a mountain, lay quietly on the landing platform, with dense crowds surrounding him, carrying out various construction activities.

Rows of foundations are neatly arranged in two rows of bone spurs on the gray back, which is already quite large.

Beast masters came and went in and out of the take-off and landing platform, commanding the spirit beasts to move large quantities of materials to predetermined areas.

In the sky above, strange fiery red flames cut through the starlight and landed in the rest area in the city.

The first thing Han Ning did when he returned to Ye Ming City was to gather back the scattered human management teams.

Just ten minutes later, in a conference room in the rest area.

Including Sage, Holm, Dean Wu, Academician Zhou and others, the human management team in charge of all aspects has been gathered.

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but neither of them spoke.

They are experienced people, and just by seeing this formation, they can understand that something big must be happening.

Otherwise, Han Ning wouldn't have called everyone together for no reason.

"Han Ning, what happened? You even called Teacher Sage?"

When everyone arrived, Dean Wu coughed lightly and took the lead in breaking the silence.

"Questions about the Dragon Blood Clan and the future."

Han Ning frowned and briefly told everyone what happened in Tianqi Gorge.

"What do you think about the placement of Elder Qingshen Jia?" Han Ning looked at everyone with pleading eyes.

Speaking of which, he is just a young man in his early twenties. Although he is the strongest in the human camp, when it comes to dealing with interpersonal relationships and making plans, he still needs the advice of his experienced elders.

"Even without the second elder, the strength of the Dragon Blood Tribe has far surpassed ours... If he joins again, the balance of strength between the two sides will become extremely unbalanced. I'm worried that at some point, they will suddenly snatch the Gray Demon Whale's Take control and drive us away." Teacher Zhou said solemnly.

"Yes, Akatos is Akatos, and the Dragon Blood Clan is the Dragon Blood Clan. Speaking of which... the former is just a worship-like existence in the latter clan. Now Akatos is restricted to the Emerald Forest. The Dragon Blood Clan probably won't worry too much." Teacher Liang also expressed his opinion, "I don't think the second elder can be allowed to join."

"But... if the second elder is not allowed to join, the relationship between us and Dragon Blood will definitely deteriorate... I am afraid that the seeds of crisis will be sown."

"Nearly 80% of our current supplies rely on dragon blood, and most of the soul beast crystals are also provided by them. If there is a conflict, there is a risk of energy depletion." Teacher Zhou looked worried.

"Dean Wu, what do you think?" Han Ning turned his eyes to Dean Wu, who had been silent.

"I think... let the second elder join the Gray Demon Whale. Nowadays, we are not suitable for conflict with Dragon Blood. As long as you and Mingkai have the control of the Gray Demon Whale firmly in their hands, they will take action. No. Dare to act rashly."

"Well, I also think that the second elder should be allowed to join. The Dragonblood people don't know the specific navigation method of the Gray Demonic Whale. Even if they seize the Gray Demonic Whale, they can't command it to sail. There are thousands of them. As the leader of a clan, Qing Dou must consider the safety of his tribe and will never ignore the lives of thousands of tribesmen and break up with us," Zhou Mingkai agreed.

"The problem you are worried about actually has a relatively stable solution."

At this time, Seg who was listening suddenly spoke.

"What method?" When everyone heard this, they all turned their heads.

Saige tapped in the void, and a simple mental model composed of fire element light points was constructed:

"Among the various races in the Amethyst World, there is a secret technique called 'Spiritual Contract'. Two or more beast masters sign a spiritual contract through a special method to form a restrictive relationship. If one party violates the spirit, The content of the contract ranges from the collapse of the spiritual world to death on the spot..."

"You can choose to sign a spiritual contract with Qing Dou, and the two parties will agree on a series of suitable treaties. In this way, the Dragon Blood Clan will not dare to act rashly, at least until they successfully reach a safe destination."

As he said that, he looked at Han Ning,

"It just so happens that your mental power level is similar to that of Qing Dou. As long as he breaks the contract, the backlash effect brought by the contract will be enough to kill him directly. Moreover, the method of breaking the contract only exists in the inheritance of a very small number of advanced ethnic groups. Even the Witch Spirit Even the clan has no control over it, and the dragon blood clan cannot crack it. "

"I will first transfer the method of constructing the contract to you. As for how to negotiate the agreement, it will be discussed by both of you."

Saige stretched out a finger and motioned for Han Ning to come closer.

The word contract is not unfamiliar. Before time travel, paper and electronic contracts could be seen everywhere.

"If the spiritual contract is really as effective as Sir Seg said, then you might as well give it a try." Dean Wu gave a suggestion.

The others also nodded, indicating that they could give it a try.

"Okay, after Qing Dou returns to Yeming City, I will come forward to ask the management of both humans and dragon blood to sit down together and have a good talk about this matter. Thank you, Teacher Seg."

Han Ning nodded and put his head in front of Seg.

Saige didn't say anything. He placed his slender fingers between Han Ning's eyebrows, and an unfamiliar spiritual message quickly entered his mind.

This spiritual contract has a special name - Purgatory, which is a special secret technique used by Seg's religious sect during his lifetime. As the name suggests, those who violate the contract will have their spiritual bodies treated like falling into purgatory. After experiencing a lot of pain, they will completely die. It can be said that the consequences are extremely serious.

"The construction method of the Purgatory Contract is not within the inheritance limited by the divine religion. It can be transmitted to you, but remember not to transmit it to a third party."

Saige retracted his finger and warned.

"I understand, thank you Teacher SEG." Han Ning thanked him again.

After discussing in detail how to deal with the dragon blood clan, Han Ning's tense heart relaxed a little.

Not long after, Qing Dou protected the second batch of Dragon Blood Clan transportation troops and entered the interior of Yeming City.

Han Ning found Qing Dou immediately and met with many elders of the Dragon Blood Tribe. At night, in the small square in the rest area, members of the two tribes sat down together to discuss how to get along on the Gray Demon Whale after the voyage began. plan.

time flies.

It's night time in a blink of an eye.

In the small square in front of the rest area, several fireflies raised by humans stood up, walking side by side, carrying a long red carpet on their backs, and walked into the hall with a solemn expression.

Then, many wolf cubs ran in carrying all kinds of strange fruits and spring water in metal containers.

Qing Dou led a dozen tall dragon blood clan elders, stepping on the red carpet towards the opposite side, and entered the hall.

In the hall, there is a long table large enough to accommodate dozens of people for a meeting.

On the other side of the long table, stood a dozen managers from the human side.

"Chief Qingdou, please take a seat." Han Ning pulled out his chair and made an invitation gesture to Qingdou opposite.

Qingdou looked around the surrounding arrangements with great interest, smiled with his rough lizard face, and sat down first.

The dragon-blooded elders lined up in a row followed suit and sat next to Qing Dou in order.

Han Ning took the initiative to sit opposite Qing Dou.

The rest of the humans also sat opposite the Dragon Blood Elder.

A dozen strong Blue Sky Wolves lined up around the carpet, standing around with majestic expressions, looking like guards.

With this series of formations laid out, the sparsely decorated hall suddenly had a somewhat solemn atmosphere of discussing important matters.

"Everyone is here, let's start..."

"Chief Qingdou, have you ever heard of a secret technique called spiritual contract?"

“All ears”

“…”

Next, humans and dragon blood had an in-depth discussion on how to establish harmonious and friendly communication and transactions.

On the human side, the second elder was allowed to log in to the Gray Demon Whale, and promised to set aside an area specifically for the daily life of the Qingshen Beetle Master. The rest of the people were not allowed to enter without permission. They also gave reasonable rules for the transaction of a series of resources. plan.

Compared with human beings' desire for resources, the dragon blood side is more concerned about the division of activity range. Because of the large number of people, they want to occupy nearly two-thirds of the Gray Demon Whale area as the activity area of ​​​​the dragon blood people. Of course, Humans and other races can also move freely here, but they cannot interfere with the planting and living customs of the dragon blood people in the area.

Two-thirds of the area was too large, and as soon as humans heard about it, they refused...

Then, the two sides fell into a heated discussion.

At the beginning, the arrogant dragon-blooded elders looked down upon the strength of human beings and refused to give in to the division of activity areas.

Until Suo Lin, who had just been taken under Han Ning's command, along with his soul beast, and Qing Yao appeared silently at the long table, their tone gradually softened.
