Only Lu An and Yin Lin were left in the room. Lu An didn't leave, and neither did Yin Lin. The two of them had a tacit understanding as if they knew each other had something to say.
Lu An was a level 9 Heaven Master now, which was different from before. The difference in power meant different things. The way Yin Lin looked at Lu An had changed.
"Senior." Lu An didn't let the silence continue. He opened his mouth and asked, "Are the Temi people ready to return to the continent?"
"…"
Yin Lin looked at Lu An. To her, joining the Life and Death Union wasn't to return to the continent, but to take revenge on the Chu Family. However, Lu An had said that he would take revenge for the Chu Family by himself. He didn't need the Life and Death Union's help. To Yin Lin, this was the best thing for the Temi people.
As for returning to the continent … she had thought about it, but she didn't have much desire.
The Temi people were driven out of the continent more than five thousand years ago. They weren't driven out by the Hachiko clan. They were driven out by everyone in the world, including the sects at that time. Although the sects were different now, and the people back then were all dead, to Yin Lin, it was still a pain that the Temi people couldn't forget even after five thousand years.
The Temi people were a race with dignity. If the humans on the continent didn't welcome them, they wouldn't have any good desire for the continent. They wouldn't treat the continent as their home. They were used to living on the ocean, so they didn't have much affection for the continent.
Seeing Yin Lin didn't say anything, Lu An took a deep breath. He had hoped that the Temi people could return to the Eight Ancient Continents. Anyway, humans still had to live on the continent, and the Eight Ancient Continents were the only continent. Living on the continent would be more comfortable than living on the ocean. The Temi people had to live on the ocean, so they felt like they were homeless.
"Now, besides the Sect Union and the Heaven Master Union, there aren't many humans left on the continent." Lu An said softly, "No one will say anything to the Temi people anymore. The Temi people don't need anyone's opinion anymore. They can do whatever they want. However … to many strange beasts, Temi people are no different from humans. If Temi people wander around outside, they will still be in danger. "
Hearing Lu An's words, Yin Lin knew that even if she returned to the continent, she would still have to live in hiding. After all, Temi people were not distinguishable by Wonder Beasts. In their eyes, they were all humans.
In fact, Lu An wanted to tell Yin Lin to return to her roots. No matter what, human beings were a race from the Eight Ancient Continents. They had to return to the land to live. However, Lu An didn't say it out loud. He didn't want to use too many words to restrict Yin Lin's choice. No matter what decision Yin Lin made in the end, he wouldn't interfere.
Yin Lin continued to be silent, and the whole room was dead silent.
However, although Yin Lin did not say a word, it was already a message. The fact that Yin Lin was still sitting here meant that she wasn't unmoved. She also wanted to return to the continent. However, there were too many things interfering with her decision, so she couldn't make a decision immediately.
Lu An was in no hurry. He waited quietly.
Eventually, after a long time, Yin Lin lifted her eyes, turning to look at Lu An.
Lu An and Yin Lin looked at each other, waiting for her answer.
"I can go back," Yin Lin looked at Lu An, speaking seriously. "But I don't want to be kicked out again."
Yin Lin's tone was serious and heavy. She wasn't talking to herself, but to Lu An. Lu An was shaken. He knew that it wasn't an ordinary wish, but a request to him.
Perhaps in other people's eyes, it was the Temi people's business. Yin Lin had never reached an agreement with Lu An on this matter, so it had nothing to do with Lu An. However, Yue Rong had helped Lu An a lot, and he would never forget it.
Lu An looked at Yin Lin and said, "I will do my best to ensure the Temi people can live well on the continent."
After receiving Lu An's promise, Yin Lin took a deep breath and finally stood up.
"I will lead the Temi people back to the continent." Yin Lin looked at Lu An and said, "I hope you can keep your promise."
"Okay," Lu An said.
Yin Lin looked at Lu An for a few breaths before turning around and leaving the room.

In the following days, the Life and Death Alliance started to take action.
Although the Sky Tiger Race liked to sleep in, they were very fast once they took action. The next day, the Sky Tiger Race sent people to the resource territory at the border of the Southern Cloud Empire and the Yang Rong Empire to negotiate with the top race. The Sky Tiger Race's attitude was very tough. If they gave up, the Sky Tiger Race would compensate them. If the Sky Tiger Race attacked, not only would they not be able to take anything, they would also have to leave their lives behind.
This top race was actually amphibious. They could survive on both the continent and the ocean. Half of the top race lived in the ocean, while the other half lived here. They could obtain resources from both sides and trade with other top races to strengthen their strength. When the Sky Tiger Race suddenly came to their door, this top race was immediately stunned. However, they were very clear that the resources here were very suitable for the Sky Tiger Race. It was reasonable for the Sky Tiger Race to take a fancy to this place.
The Sky Tiger Race was impatient and demanded an answer within a day. If they did not give it, it would be regarded as a choice to fight. This top race originally lived in the southernmost sea region. It was not that they had not seen the strength of the Sky Tiger Race. No matter how unwilling and humiliated they were, they really did not want their race to suffer a disaster and suffer heavy losses.
If they fought, they definitely could not win. If they were ruthless, no race was more ruthless than the Sky Tiger Race. Therefore, this top race could only reluctantly choose to give up the resources and give them to the Sky Tiger Race. After the Sky Tiger Race gave them generous compensation, they promised that they would not snatch their territory for the next thousand years.
This news immediately spread in the Exotic Beast World. However, the speed of the news was far slower than the speed of the Sky Tiger Race. As soon as the top race agreed to retreat, Prince Qi immediately sent people to the top race and arrived at various trading cities to announce the return of the Sky Tiger Race!
This news immediately shook the entire Exotic Beast World!
The Sky Tiger Race was not an ordinary race. They were the top of the top races and were the overlords of the land. Even Dragons might not be able to gain an advantage against the Sky Tiger Race if they fought on the ground. This was because the Dragons' physique was naturally suited for fighting in the sky and the sea. If they attacked the Sky Tiger Race from the sky, they would have a great advantage. However, as long as they were on the ground, the Sky Tiger Race's extremely developed physique would be a huge threat.
After the news of the Sky Tiger Race's return spread, the first thought of all the Exotic Beast Races was to see what the Dragons would do! Everyone knew that the Sky Tiger Race had a close relationship with Lu An. Although the Dragons said that they would not attack the humans for the time being, would they really let the Sky Tiger Race go?
The news of the Sky Tiger Race's return caused a huge commotion among the Dragons. After the eight Dragon Kings received the news, they immediately gathered for a meeting. Now that the Dragons were recuperating from their heavy injuries, the Sky Tiger Race's choice to return at this time was indeed very sensitive. However, the Sky Tiger Race only announced their return and did not say anything else. For example, they wanted to dominate the land or express their dissatisfaction with the Dragons. As such, the Dragons had no reason to attack the Sky Tiger Race directly.
After the eight Dragon Kings discussed it, they all decided not to say anything about this matter. It could be considered as a tacit acknowledgment of the Sky Tiger Race's return.
The reason was very simple. Even with the existence of the Emperor Megalosaurus, he was unable to exterminate the Sky Tiger Race. Instead, he was forced to admit the Sky Tiger Race's existence on the mainland and that they were not under his rule. Even the Emperor Megalosaurus could not do it back then. Now that the Dragons were heavily injured, it was impossible for them to do it. Since they had decided to rest and recuperate, it would not be good to complicate matters. If King Qi really cooperated with Lu An, then as long as Lu An did not attack the Dragons, the Sky Tiger Race would not cause trouble for the Dragons.
King Qi led a portion of the Sky Tigers back to the mainland. After entering his territory, he immediately summoned all the Sky Tigers in the ocean. All along, the Sky Tigers that were scattered all over the ocean obeyed King Qi's orders and did not enter the mainland. This time, they all entered the mainland together and had to report to his territory before dispersing. Even King Qi finally counted the number of Sky Tigers in his territory for the first time.
Regardless of their strength, all the Sky Tigers were counted. Their numbers were much more than King Qi had expected. Even King Qi himself was shocked. He did not expect the Sky Tiger Race to be so large.
At the same time as the Sky Tiger Race's high-profile return, the other races of the Life and Death Alliance entered the mainland one after another under the cover of the Sky Tiger Race's momentum. Some even fought with the other races.
