The Spirit Butterfly Queen's eyes were wide open.
Even she did not know where the other Spirit Butterfly Clansmen were hiding in this world. She did not even know how many tribes they had come from.
However, their positions and even their every move had been exposed to this human powerhouse.
Wait …
She suddenly remembered that he had said that only a powerhouse who had ignited the Divine Fire and surpassed rank 6 could do this.
Could it be …
As soon as this thought appeared, her heartbeat sped up. She looked at Shen Yi in awe and disbelief and asked in a trembling voice, "Could it be that you've already …"
Shen Yi only smiled and did not say anything.
Sometimes, one's own guesses were even more impactful.
The Queen of the Spirit Butterfly Clan was indeed a bit flustered.
Even if the human expert in front of her had not reached that level, he was definitely not someone an ordinary rank 6 expert could compare to. At the very least, her Royal Highness could not do this.
Under this kind of pressure.
She clenched her teeth and asked, "I sincerely apologize for using human land without permission. What kind of compensation do you want?" She seemed to be ready to throw caution to the wind.
In front of a true expert, fighting and resisting was very difficult.
Moreover.
The Spirit Butterfly Clan was not good at fighting.
That's right. The size of their entire race and the difficulty of reproduction determined that they would not lack resources for survival. Naturally, they did not have a culture that liked to fight. Therefore, after the opening of the Otherworld Passage, faced with the threat of war, they made the decision to disperse and evacuate the entire race.
"Do you believe me now?" Shen Yi did not put away the images. Instead, he calmly looked at the Queen of the Spirit Butterfly Clan, who was only half the size of his palm, and said slowly, "This is a world of war, of struggle. No race can stay out of this. Either we become strong enough to resist everything, or we can only regret our weakness. Therefore, we must use all the power we can to become stronger."
If it was before, the Spirit Butterfly Clan might not have taken these words seriously.
But now.
She was indeed starting to regret her weakness.
If this human expert wanted to kill them and make them slaves, they would not be able to resist at all.
Only when the threat appeared in front of them could they truly feel the powerlessness that came with being weak.
She is now.
All she could do was to lower her head and pray to the great Mother Nature that this human who could decide the fate of their tribe was not a cruel person.
The petite Spirit Butterflies behind her hugged her even tighter, trembling as they awaited their trial.
In the end, Shen Yi spoke again.
"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as a yes."
"What?" The queen of the Spirit Butterfly Race couldn't help but raise her head in confusion.
"We need to use all the power we can to make ourselves stronger." Shen Yi's gaze deepened. "Let me see if you have any value in being used."
"…" This time, she understood, but she bit her lips tightly. "Are we going to the battlefield? Then I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you … There's nothing in our culture that can be used for battle. In fact, our race has never had a large-scale internal conflict since 4700 years of recorded history! "
"There has never been an internal conflict?" Shen Yi was a little surprised.
"Never!" Her voice was filled with bitterness.
In the past, they used to be proud of this, enjoying peace and all the beauty of it.
But now, they started to feel some hatred.
If their history was like that of the humans, or even the other foreign races, which was filled with war, then they wouldn't be so powerless right now.
"Then what do you know?" Shen Yi was curious.
"Planting, healing, regulating … We are the messengers of Mother Nature, bearing the responsibility of coordinating nature. All living things are our friends, but all the laws of nature are also our laws," she said softly.
Shen Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at her, as if trying to discern the truth of her words.
After a while, he asked slowly, "Your name?"
"Cui Liya." She raised her hand and stroked it in front of her chest. This was the etiquette when announcing one's name.
"Then, Cui Liya, show me." Shen Yi put his hands behind his back. "Show me what you can do, then I will decide the fate of your tribe."
"… Understood." Cui Liya became nervous again.
From Shen Yi's tone, she could hear an undeniable domineering aura.
A domineering aura that controlled their fate.
Without a doubt, this was not a powerful person who would be so merciful as to let them go easily.
Then, she temporarily inherited their tribe's power.
This was a type of supernatural inheritance that was similar to magic. Through mysterious rituals and willpower, one could mobilize psionic energy to accelerate the growth of plants and nurture plants that were filled with psionic energy. It could even be used to nurture cloves. Shen Yi's eyes lit up as psionic and mystical powers largely came from the soul. What they grasped was a type of intelligent and pure healing power. No matter if it was plants or creatures, injuries or diseases, they could all be quickly healed.
In fact … this power could even soothe the negative emotions in one's heart.
"Very good." Shen Yi finally said. He even revealed a trace of a smile. "You have already shown your value. On this basis, I can promise that I will not easily hurt you."
From the beginning, he did not intend to hurt them.
And the reason why he acted like that.
It was for the initiative.
He believed that if the choice was given to them, they would definitely choose to leave here and stay away from danger and war.
At this moment, in Shen Yi's eyes, they were logisticians and medics sent to his door.
Perhaps, he could also let the human civilization of this world, as a relatively simple race, start to explore the way to interact with other races, and explore their own future.
And when Cui Liya heard Shen Yi's promise, her expression did not relax at all.
"Respected human powerhouse." She mustered up her courage and asked, "May I know how you plan to deal with us? Will you make us human slaves or prisoners? Friends or allies? "
Now, she no longer had any naive expectations.
Those foreign races who invaded her homeland wanted to capture them as slaves.
But they did not expect.
Even if they gave up their homeland, they still had to face such a fate.
