Chapter 526 - 428: Half-Beastman Royal City
Upon hearing Zhao Yi plans to borrow something from the Beast God, the protagonist and the three magical beasts simultaneously cast curious glances at him.
The protagonist asked curiously, "What do you want to borrow from the Beast God?"
Though the three magical beasts didn’t speak, they all looked at Zhao Yi with curiosity, evidently unable to comprehend why someone of Zhao Yi’s level would need to borrow something.
Zhao Yi waved his hand casually, saying, "Nothing much, just planning to borrow a Law Fragment from the Beast God, that’s all!"
Hiss!
Upon hearing this, the three magical beasts gasped.
They were all at the peak of the twelfth tier, just one Law Fragment away from stepping into the thirteenth tier Sage Realm.
So their understanding of Law Fragments was clearer than anyone’s.
Law Fragments are practically the lifeblood of all sages.
To ask the Beast God for its Law Fragment is essentially akin to taking its life.
The Gray Wolf grumbled in his heart.
Earlier, it said Zhao Yi wanted to slay the god, which Zhao Yi denied.
Zhao Yi wants the lifeblood of the Beast God, even if the Beast God were mad, it wouldn’t give it.
In the end, isn’t it bound to come to this step?
Thinking of this, the Gray Wolf couldn’t help but start to look forward.
The Beast God’s Law Fragment is the only Power of Laws in the Half-Beastman World.
As opposed to the twelve scattered Rule Fragments in the Magic World, the Power of Laws within the Beast God is obviously more complete and perfect.
The most important thing is that compared to the magic fragments of the human race, the Beast God’s Law Fragment is more suited to the physique of magical beasts.
The Gray Wolf’s heart couldn’t help but start to expect.
If Zhao Yi kills the Beast God but is dissatisfied with the Beast God’s Law Fragment, doesn’t that mean it has a chance to pick up the leftovers?
If it could become the Beast God, that would be far more prestigious than being a god of magic in the Magic World.
The White Elephant and Black Eagle, though didn’t speak, Gray Wolf noticed their expressions had also changed, clearly holding thoughts similar to its own.
"These two guys are really annoying!"
Though the Gray Wolf was dissatisfied with the White Elephant and Black Eagle competing for its opportunity, they were all under Zhao Yi’s roof now and dared not fight too openly.
In case they anger Zhao Yi and were expelled, it would be too late to regret then.
Thinking of this, the Gray Wolf restrained the wildness and fierceness in its eyes, reverting back to its harmless appearance.
Due to their exterior, the White Elephant and Black Eagle couldn’t express inner thoughts through their expressions, so they didn’t need to hide like the Gray Wolf.
Xu Yue’Er, observing the reaction of the three magical beasts nearby, couldn’t help but snicker inwardly.
They have been with Zhao Yi for too short a time, completely unaware of Zhao Yi’s character.
Zhao Yi’s reputation has always been renowned in the Great Xia Dynasty since childhood.
There’s only ever been Zhao Yi picking up on others, never has anyone profited from Zhao Yi.
If Zhao Yi hasn’t stripped them bare for sale, then they’re blessed.
Those three fools actually hope to get the Beast God’s Law Fragment from Zhao Yi, how delusional.
Xu Yue’Er thought to herself, sighing involuntarily.
If it weren’t for Zhao Yi being too stingy, why would she struggle to revive the Four Seas Dragon Race?
With the wealth Zhao Yi possessed, a mere flick of his finger could immediately restore the Four Seas Dragon Palace, and the Dragon Race’s glory could be just around the corner.
Sadly, Zhao Yi completely ignores Xu Yue’Er’s wishes.
No matter what she does, Zhao Yi hasn’t changed at all; he’s simply heartless.
Previously, Xu Yue’Er volunteered to be Zhao Yi’s mount, but in her heart, she actually wanted to be Zhao Yi’s concubine.
If she gave birth to a dragon with Zhao Yi’s bloodline, Xu Yue’Er wouldn’t believe Zhao Yi wouldn’t help revive the Dragon Race.
After all, the future leader of the Dragon Race would be his own son; who else would he rely on for help?
Yet Xu Yue’Er hadn’t expected Zhao Yi to genuinely view her only as a mount.
Xu Yue’Er found it strange and frustrating.
Is she not pretty?
But she is acknowledged as the Dragon Race’s number one beauty in the Four Seas.
The Dragon Race’s aesthetics far surpass the human race.
With so many dragons recognizing Xu Yue’Er as a beauty, her appearance must be flawless.
Yet Zhao Yi completely ignores her, not sparing a thought.
Xu Yue’Er instantly felt a sense of defeat.
Simultaneously, her understanding of Zhao Yi deepened further.
Zhao Yi, who is indifferent to female beauty, how could anyone gain benefits from him?
Even if someone could, it certainly wouldn’t be those three magical beasts.
Sure enough, Zhao Yi acted as if he didn’t notice the gaze of those three magical beasts, instructing Black Eagle and Gray Wolf, "You two lead the way, try to reach the Half-Beastman Royal City in the shortest time!"
The awakening of the Magic World’s consciousness indicates the Nether Tree is about to position itself.
With the threat from the Nether Tree gradually spreading, surely more little world consciousnesses will awaken.
Once those consciousnesses begin to save themselves, their first concern will definitely be the gods bearing the Law Fragments of their small worlds.
Under such circumstances, Zhao Yi’s hope of seizing those fragments becomes nearly impossible.
Thus, Zhao Yi is entirely racing against time with the Nether Tree.
He must gather as many Law Fragments as possible before those world consciousnesses awaken.
If he misses this village, once all the Law Fragments are ravaged by the Nether Tree, the possibility of Zhao Yi collecting the Power of Laws again is nearly impossible.
The three top-tier magical beasts raced at full speed, covering half of the Half-Beastman World in just half a day’s time, arriving at Beast King City.
Though called a city, Beast King City was actually more akin to the livestock markets Zhao Yi had seen in his previous life.
He stood atop the White Elephant, looking down upon Beast King City, observing the utterly unartistic buildings and half-beastmen relieving themselves everywhere, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
When Zhao Yi read Western fantasy novels in his previous life, he was quite interested in straightforward and honest half-beastmen that were frequently exploited by humans.
Now, witnessing them firsthand, Zhao Yi instantly became desensitized.
Even several kilometers away, Zhao Yi could still smell the stench of gathered livestock emanating from Beast King City.
Though this stench wasn’t as sickening as those monsters from the invasion of the Cultivation World, the pervasive odor of livestock feces was enough to make Zhao Yi pinch his nose.
Zhao Yi gazed for a long time, finally unable to hold back a sigh, "If it weren’t for the urgency elsewhere, I wouldn’t want to deal with the Beast King!"
Beast King City stinks so badly; the Beast King residing atop the altar may have already been pickled in the scent of feces.
Thinking of confronting such a terrifying creature made Zhao Yi feel nauseated.
The protagonist, not having experienced those smelly monsters from the Cultivation World, was even weaker compared to Zhao Yi.
Wrinkling his nose, he suppressed the discomfort in his heart and advised Zhao Yi, "Why not just capture a behemoth? Better not meet the Beast King! With Beast King City smelling so bad, the Beast King won’t be much better!"
Zhao Yi wholeheartedly agreed with this view.
