"That beast has started to eat. Its appetite is very good. It can devour prey that is as big as itself!"
"It might be full this time, but what about next time? What about when it is hungry again? Will it open its claws and fangs to other prey? "
Li was silent.
She stood there for a moment, then turned and walked outside.
Jing seemed to be surprised. He raised his hand to stop her, but he retracted it and lowered his head. "Li … No, are you really going to wear the annual sacrifice clothes to welcome the other party? Tomorrow, they will be back tomorrow! "
Li stopped and turned to look at him. She said expressionlessly, "Then what can we do now?"
"Just as you said, no one knew that this beast would be so terrifying. Its strength has exceeded everyone's imagination. Not to mention the future, even now, if we were to really fight it, would the Nayans be able to win? Even if we win, how many people will we have left? "
"You have fought side by side with it before. Tell me, is it really that strong?"
"I want you to tell me yourself. If you lead the team, can you defeat it?" Li's voice was like a knife stabbing into Jing's chest. This warrior from Naya, who dared to fight the terrifying beast naked, instinctively wanted to nod and answer. But when the words reached his mouth, he swallowed them back. Because he knew that it was impossible.
Humans were too strong!
This race that was ridiculed in the past had accomplished the greatest feat in the shortest time. Everyone in Naya should know one thing. Humans were not to be trifled with!
Li did not speak.
She could only smile helplessly.
Jing hesitated for a moment, then said, "If you wear the annual sacrifice clothes to welcome the other party, we will be on equal footing. At that time, humans will completely replace the natives and become one of the masters of this island!"
"This will make it even harder to control! Many people in the camp have already started to lean towards the human camp. Those people's mentality has already started to change because of those items! "
Li looked at him and said slowly, "This is something I did not expect. By the time I found out, it was already too late. Do you know? We are already inseparable from the humans. Our food, clothing, housing, and transportation are all related to them. If we become enemies with the humans now, other than death and injury, our lives will also be shaken! "
"Perhaps I was wrong to underestimate him. From the very beginning, he was not someone we could control!"
"Besides."
"In just a few days, he has led the humans to defeat the natives. He has already proven his ability as a leader. Although I don't want to admit it, we have already gone from being proactive to being passive. Jing, I know all of this is hard to accept, but we have to admit that we are now at a disadvantage!"
Li turned his head and said with a cold expression, "But you have to remember that a good hunter needs to remain calm at all times. Don't target humans anymore. Apart from causing conflict between the two sides, it has no meaning at all!"
"You're the person I trust the most!"
"You have to put your clansmen first. Don't vent your anger on humans. At least, not now!"
Dead silence.
When Li finished speaking, her gaze was ice-cold. She looked at Jing as if she was judging him. This was the first time Jing had seen such an expression on Li's face. Even though he had many things to say, he couldn't say a single word at this moment.
…
One day later.
When Li learned that Chen Feng had led the army back, Jing was leading the way with more than 50 guards protecting him. Li walked towards her destination with a solemn expression. Along the way, many people who saw her nodded slightly to show their respect.
Li was the patron saint of Naya in the hearts of the people. No one would express dissatisfaction because of her gender. In the past few years, Li had proven herself to be a qualified leader with facts!
The crowd parted from both sides.
Li looked at the warriors in front of her with a serious expression. She saw the slaves kneeling on the ground and the corpses hanging on the wooden stakes.
Then, Li looked at the humans. On the left and right of Chen Feng, there were also several powerful professionals. Wei Xun had been promoted to the legendary rank. Wang Xudong was still thinking that if he succeeded in his promotion, he would have a chance to compete for the head of the Blood Warfare Division. Wei Xun finally won and succeeded in his promotion!
Wei Xun's gaze landed on Jing. He could sense a trace of unfriendliness in Jing's gaze. Wei Xun was quite sensitive. Nobody would be able to express their dissatisfaction toward Jing. Wei Xun raised his head as well. Even though his height only reached Jing's waist, his strength as a legendary expert made up for the gap between them.
At this time, Wei Xun vaguely urged the energy of the Hundred Beast Souls in his body. The energy gathered together and turned into a monster baring its fangs and brandishing its claws. The monster seemed to have endless eyes. It stared at Jing without moving.
Jing was naturally dissatisfied with the humans. But after seeing Wei Xun's gaze, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He felt a strong murderous intent. If he continued, the human might really kill him. What a lunatic! Jing couldn't help but sigh and look away.
"I praise you for your strength!"
Li bowed slightly. She could hear the sound of the sea wolf hitting the reef. Li was absolutely unwilling to bow down to Chen Feng. But if she didn't bow down now, it meant that she would lose a powerful ally. She had to compromise and give in. Even if she just came out to greet him, she might not be able to satisfy the man in front of her.
Because Li saw a ray of light in his eyes!
That was ambition.
He definitely had a great ambition in his heart.
At this moment, Li suddenly thought of a possibility. His goal was not just the natives!
This phenomenon made Li feel a little bitter in her heart. She felt that she seemed to have missed an important opportunity. If she hadn't let the humans interfere with the lives of her people in the beginning and made a greater distinction between them, perhaps the situation wouldn't be like this now.
But it was a little too late now!
If she had been more ruthless and completely treated the humans in front of her as a potential enemy, perhaps she wouldn't have been so passive. But the humans had taken the initiative.
Now it was different.
This island was no longer dominated by the Naya people. Li had to understand that the humans had proven their value through force. And what the Naya people gave the humans was not just a piece of land, but mutual trust and friendship.
Li's choice now was to recognize the humans' rights on this land!
