And this was just Leng Leng. If it was any other normal foundation establishment perfection master, they wouldn't even be able to compare at all. They weren't on the same level at all.
However, before everyone could finish cheering, an extremely strong gust of wind suddenly blew past above their heads. Fortunately, they were surrounded by an extremely dense primeval forest. If it was an open and spacious place like a plain, everyone would definitely be blown away. Even so, everyone had to rely on each other to barely stabilize themselves, and it was difficult for them to move forward.
"What … What a big Goumang!" Ziyu looked up at the huge silhouette in the sky. The others looked over, and their jaws dropped as well.
At this moment, there were two figures, one large and one small, hovering in midair. The smaller one was the third Goumang that had disappeared for a long time. In fact, it wasn't considered small given its size. After all, it was more than three meters tall when standing upright, but compared to the Goumang beside it, it was a complete dwarf.
Whether it was wingspan or body length, this Goumang was at least five times its size. Lin Yi had seen quite a few spirit beasts of this size on Sky class island, but there weren't many that had this much pressure.
Of course, this was also because Lin Yi was too weak right now. If it were his main body here, there wouldn't be any pressure at all. Even if the Goumang was ten times bigger, it'd still be a toy to him.
"Be careful, everyone. This guy's at least a golden core stage. Be prepared." Lin Yi said in a low voice. He couldn't tell how strong the opponent was before he made his move, but he was sure that the opponent was in the Golden Core stage, and it wouldn't be as simple as the early stage or the peak of the early stage. If he didn't handle it well, it would be a fatal threat to everyone.
The gigantic Goumang did not attack directly. Instead, it used its bestial eyes to look down at everyone and suddenly said, "Humans, surrender or die."
Lingshan and the others paused, looking at each other. This guy could actually speak human language?
The three Goumangs were communicating with each other in a very human-like manner, but their words weren't human. They didn't expect this guy to be able to speak human language, too, and with perfect articulation.
Lin Yi didn't find it strange at all. Spirit beasts could even turn into humans once they reached a certain level, and speaking human language was a piece of cake. This guy had a human face, too, so it wasn't strange for him to have human vocal cords. As long as it wanted to, it could learn human language.
"What are you?" Lin Yi asked calmly as he sized it up.
"I am the Ancient Goumang King!" The giant Goumang replied.
"Bullshit!" "Although Goumang's main characteristic is a bird's body and a human face, the Goumang mentioned in the ancient texts were all existences that stood on two scarlet snakes. Besides, if you're really the Goumang King from the primordial era, how could you only have this little bit of strength? You don't even have the face to show your face when you don't have a mountain opening period? Do you really think I've never been educated? "
"I … I …" King Goumang was left at a loss for words. His massive face clearly blushed as though he was a fraud who had been exposed on the spot. It was as awkward as one could get.
Lingshan and the others looked at Lin Yi with respect. They'd been nervous to see such a big guy coming at them so fiercely, but Lin Yi was able to make him choke with just two sentences. He was practically the reincarnation of Zhuge Wuhou!
"This place is sealed off, and the qi is lacking. Our Goumang Clan is getting weaker with each generation, it's nothing strange that we can't compare to the Ancient Era!" King Goumang was left speechless for a long time before he reacted. He said angrily, "To think that a mere human dares to speak such arrogant words to humiliate me. I'll let you die a tragic death!"
Lin Yi didn't panic at all, curling his lips nonchalantly, "I'm just speaking the truth, what's there to insult? You're the one who's weaker than the previous generation, can't I question you?"
They'd thought that a fight would break out at this point, since they'd all seen how savage Goumang was. He'd even eaten the three little ones on sight, let alone this big guy that was at least at the golden core stage.
However, the primordial King Goumang didn't attack him directly. Instead, he was surprisingly amicable. He said, "Fine, on account of your reverence for my Goumang race, I can spare your lives as long as you surrender obediently and don't resist."
Lingshan and the others were speechless. None of what Lin Yi had said had been about the Goumang Clan. Had they missed it, or was this Ancient Goumang King overthinking things?
"Surrender obediently? Don't resist? Doesn't that mean we're dead? You Goumang treat us humans like food, we saw it all just now. Do you take us for fools? "Lin Yi said with a faint smile.
"Did they really eat it?" The Ancient Goumang King asked.
"How can it be fake?" Lin Yi curled his lips.
"Bastard! How dare you steal and eat the tributes! " Primordial King Goumang was instantly enraged. He turned around and grabbed the Goumang beside him with his claw. Ignoring the Goumang's pleas for mercy, Goumang crushed it into a pile of mangled corpses that fell from midair.
This scene caused everyone to feel a chill run down their spines, and they looked at each other in dismay. Isn't this fellow a bit too ferocious? He even killed his own kind just like that. That crushing strength truly caused one's heart to palpitate.
"Alright, now you can believe my sincerity. As long as you surrender obediently, I promise I won't harm a single hair on you!" The Ancient Goumang King turned around with a kind face.
Only someone with a hole in their brain would believe such nonsense! Everyone scoffed, only to see Lin Yi smile faintly. "If you want us to surrender obediently, you should at least let us know how we'll be treated after we surrender, right? If we become your food again, wouldn't we all die a wrongful death?"
"In the name of the Ancient Goumang King, I guarantee that you won't be in any danger after you surrender. You'll just have your freedom restricted to a certain extent, and you won't be able to move around freely. Compared to losing your life now, this price is worth it, right?" The Ancient Goumang King patiently guided them.
Lin Yi smiled and suddenly asked, "What's with the tribute?"
