The Complete Collection of Spirit Beast Continent Secret Arts!
Empress Ji Ya's words were well-reasoned and supported by evidence.
No matter how much betrothal gift the Vast Heaven Holy Land offers, it has nothing to do with the Spirit Beast Continent, or rather, with the four major clan leaders.
And most importantly, this was the result of the four clan leaders' own selection...
If the four major clan leaders claim that Ji Ya is the Empress, then the betrothal gifts should be reserved for the development of the Spirit Beast Continent...
That makes sense, but I, Ji Ya, have used my betrothal gifts for the development of the Spirit Beast Continent. As the Queen of the Spirit Beast Continent, shouldn't the Spirit Beast Continent also provide me Ji Ya, with a reasonable dowry?
Let's not talk about double... as long as we exceed the dowry given by the Vast Heaven Holy Land, we'll consider it a great honor for your Empress.
And what happened? You see, when the four clan leaders heard this, they wished they could hide their heads in their crotches!
Ji Ya is indeed the Queen of the Spirit Beast Continent, but that doesn't mean Ji Ya thinks she deserves to be treated like a slave by the Spirit Beast Continent.
When it came to asking for betrothal gifts from me, Ji Ya, you were all so righteous and assertive, but when it came to discussing my dowry, you didn't utter a single word?
Therefore, Ji Ya was utterly disappointed by the reactions of the four clan leaders...
Times have changed. It's no longer just the Spirit Beast Continent; the Three Continents have merged, and even the Four Continents are about to return.
But look at the clans in the Spirit Beast Continent; most of them are still guarding their own little plot of land, still dreaming of being kings in their own little plot of land...
Such thinking will not make them stronger; on the contrary, it will make the Spirit Beast Continent increasingly backward.
Whether it's the Four Great Clans or even the Demonic Sects of the Spirit Beast Continent... just look at the Demonic Sects of the Blazing Sun Continent, and then look at the Demonic Sects of our Spirit Beast Continent.
The Demonic Sect of the Blazing Sun Continent, under the leadership of Tantai Jing, has already expanded its operations to our Spirit Beast Continent.
Initially, the Spirit Beast Continent rejected Tantai Jing's demon business, but true gold fears no fire!
As the Demonic Business expanded, the entire Spirit Beast Continent realized that while Tantai Jing was indeed Demonic Sect, his style of doing things was completely different from that of ordinary Demonic Sects, and his Demonic Business was genuinely reliable.
Tantai Jing was also a ruthless person; he had absolutely no tolerance for any flaws in his professional standards.
If you take a look, you'll see that whenever there's a problem with the Demonic Sect own business, Tantai Jing compensate them and punish them as necessary, without showing any leniency.
In the past, you might have doubted whether the Demonic Sect was untrustworthy, but Tantai Jing proved it with facts. If you go with the Demonic Sect to seize treasures, they will definitely rip you off without hesitation.
However, when it comes to anything involving Momo's business, Tantai Jing emphasizes that there will absolutely be no problems.
As long as the problem lies with their business, and the evidence is conclusive, Tantai Jing can give you a satisfactory explanation in no time.
Ji Ya heard that back in the early days, the Demonic Sects on the Blazing Sun Continent were almost wiped out... But look at how long it's been, the number of disciples under the Demonic Sect that Tantai Jing belongs to has surpassed the Ten Great Sects, and even the current number one sect in the world, Martial Emperor City, cannot compete with the Demonic Sect in terms of the number of disciples alone.
Most importantly, Tantai Jing led countless people who had reached the end of their rope back to a new path.
In the past, when you were desperate and couldn't go on living, you took a gamble and entered the Demonic Sect... but what was the result? You might end up as cannon fodder.
But now, you join the Momo business and become a Demon Demon Express who roams across Three Continents. Not only do you earn more, but the key is that there's no danger at all.
As long as you are willing to work hard, you will have a place in the business.
Look at the Demonic Sect over there by Tantai Jing, and then look at the Demonic Sect in our Spirit Beast Continent... what the hell are those?!
It's already the Three Continents Era... Demonic Sects of the Spirit Beast Continent are still doing all sorts of dirty and tiring work, engaging in all sorts of robbery and plunder, burning, killing, and looting at the slightest provocation...
Ji Ya was extremely disappointed by this. In her eyes, the major powers of the entire Spirit Beast Continent were like overgrown children, only daring to cause trouble behind closed doors...
Of course, Ji Ya did not really intend to give up on the Spirit Beast Continent. As the Queen of the Spirit Beast Continent, Ji Ya would not forget her identity, nor would she forget the grand vow she had made to protect the Spirit Beast Continent for the rest of her life.
However, protecting the Spirit Beast Continent doesn't mean closing the door to them and deceiving ourselves; it means finding ways to lead them out.
Having entered the Vast Heaven Holy Land, Ji Ya knew that she would use various means of the Vast Heaven Holy Land to help the Spirit Beast Continent in the future, since the Three Continents should be one family. However, Ji Ya also knew the principle that it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.
No matter how many resources you give to the Spirit Beast Continent, they'll be squandered sooner or later... I will find new paths for their growth in the Future. That's what the Queen of the Spirit Beast Continent should do, not give them betrothal gifts and let them live off their wealth!
Ji Ya did not hide her thoughts. In fact, in front of the bigwigs of Vast Heaven Holy Land, Ji Ya openly told the four clan leaders of the Spirit Beast Continent about her considerations, and also used them to tell everyone in the Spirit Beast Continent.
Even the Grand Elder couldn't help but smile at the straightforward Empress Ji Ya.
Because what Ji Ya said makes perfect sense. As the Empress of the Spirit Beast Continent, it's perfectly reasonable for her to use some of the Vast Heaven Holy Land's abilities to help the Spirit Beast Continent in the Future...
If Ji Ya had kept it a secret, the Grand Elder would have thought Ji Ya was a deep and calculating person. But by speaking out, she earned the praise of everyone, including the Grand Elder.
"Ming... Holy Lord Gu... Grand Elder... Elders, according to the rules, Ji Ya should not have come to Vast Heaven Holy Land today. Ji Ya's presence today has broken the rules, and Ji Ya apologizes to everyone. However, Ji Ya still feels that some things should be said in advance to avoid misunderstandings later."
"Empress Ji Ya is truly wise..." The Grand Elder stepped forward with a smile and personally poured Empress Ji Ya a cup of tea. This was a treatment that even Gu Mingchao could not enjoy, which showed how much the Grand Elder appreciated Empress Ji Ya.
"Empress Ji Ya... it's reasonable to hand over the betrothal gifts to the Beast God, but the problem is, the Beast God is still in a deep slumber, and it's unknown how long it will take to fuse with the Beast God Heart Beast God. So, if we hand over the betrothal gifts to the Beast God without his permission, wouldn't that seem a bit abrupt...?"
The one who spoke was none other than Chu Xinghe!
At this moment, Chu Xinghe n't know if Empress Ji Ya possessed great wisdom; all he knew was that if he didn't speak up now, it would be a complete loss...
This is something I, Chu Xinghe, along with the entire Civil Engineering Department, have worked tirelessly day and night for so long, and now we're talking about giving betrothal gifts to the Beast God...
Is that supposed to be given to the Beast God? Isn't that just transferring money from one hand to the other?
Chu Xinghe was so angry he almost peed himself when he saw the four clan leaders being rendered speechless by Ji Ya alone!
Aren't you four clan leaders usually quite talkative?
Were you all dumbfounded just now? Whether you're right or wrong, come out and yell, jump around, and scream to the heavens!
But what's with you guys not saying a word?
But now Chu Xinghe knows that relying on the four clan leaders is a complete disaster. This time, you four clan leaders, watch out! I, Chu Xinghe, will stand up for you head-on!
Therefore, Chu Xinghe immediately pointed out that the Beast God's awakening time was still unknown, and waiting for the Beast God to process the betrothal gifts would take too long. Furthermore, what if the Beast God didn't want to accept the gifts?
"If the Beast God doesn't wake up for a long time, and this betrothal gift remains in our Vast Heaven Holy Land, people will think we're waiting for the Beast God to wake up, but others might think... So, should we consider sending the betrothal gift to the Spirit Beast Continent first, and having the Four Great Clans temporarily hold onto it, until we can make a decision after the Beast God awakens?"
Good heavens! Upon hearing Chu Xinghe's words, the eyes of the four clan leaders, who had just given up hope, suddenly lit up!
No problem! Chu Xinghe made no mistake this time... The four clan leaders never dreamed that, when the outcome was already decided, Chu Xinghe would jump out and stand on their side, the Spirit Beast Continent...
Once the betrothal gifts are delivered to the Four Great Clans, how they are kept is Four Great Clans up to them.
Not only the four clan leaders, but also the Grand Elder and others couldn't help but nod in agreement when they heard Xinghe's words, because what Xinghe said made sense. If the Beast God was awake, then everything would be fine, and leaving it to the Beast God to decide would be guaranteed to be without fault.
But now, the Beast God is asleep. If the betrothal gifts remain in the Vast Heaven Holy Land, it's fine for the time being, but what if the Beast God doesn't awaken for a long time?
After all, the marriage between Holy Lord Gu Mingchao and Empress Ji Ya has caused a sensation across the Three Continents, and with Wu Man present, it's likely that even the Evil Shadow Continent knows about it.
In this situation, the betrothal gift delivery is absolutely necessary. If the Vast Heaven Holy Land skips this step and leaves the Vast Heaven Holy Land gifts there instead, what if the Beast God doesn't awaken for a long time? Won't there be rumors circulating outside?
Those who know are aware of our Vast Heaven Holy Land and its Beast Gods; those who don't might think our Vast Heaven Holy Land is trying to renege on the betrothal gifts...
Just as everyone present was pondering this question, Elder He spoke up, "Empress Ji Ya, in my youth I had the good fortune to see an ancient book that said you Beast God inheritors possess an ability to temporarily awaken the Beast God under any circumstances, even in a slumbering state, allowing the Beast God to rouse itself for a short period... I wonder if Empress Ji Ya knows this technique? If you do, simply awakening the Beast God temporarily and obtaining its response will suffice!"
Elder He said this, everyone except Chu Xinghe and the four clan leaders' eyes lit up.
Yes... If we can awaken the Beast God, even if it's just for a short time, as long as the Beast God knows what's going on, and as long as the Beast God agrees... then it won't matter when the Beast God awakens in the future.
After hearing Elder He's words, Ji Ya spoke up, "Elder He is truly a polymath... He even knows this secret technique of our Spirit Beast Continent. But I'm not afraid of being laughed at by Elder He and everyone else... This secret technique is indeed a legacy of our Beast God Hall, but as you all know, the inheritance that Ji Ya received is incomplete. This technique... it exists, but Ji Ya... doesn't understand it..."
Upon hearing Empress Ji Ya's words, Chu Xinghe and the four clan leaders' eyes lit up...
Empress Ji Ya says she doesn't understand, then it means she definitely won't be able to awaken the Beast God this time... As long as the Beast God can't be awakened, there's still a chance to send the betrothal gifts to the Spirit Beast Continent...
Just as Chu Xinghe was about to ask again to send out the betrothal gifts, Elder He spoke up once more, "It's a pity that the ancient book is not in my possession, otherwise this problem could be solved... By the way... does the Holy Mother know of this ancient book?"
"This ancient book... I think I recognize it... Let me look for it..."
Under everyone's watchful eyes, the Wuj iang Holy Mother began rummaging through her Qiankun Ring...
A moment later, the Wuj iang Holy Mother spoke again, "Elder He, come and see if this is the one?"
After speaking, the Wuj iang Holy Mother displayed the ancient book in her hand to everyone.
This ancient book is called...
"The Complete Collection of Secret Techniques of the Spirit Beast Continent, Volume 768: A Guide to the Operation of the Beast God Awakening Technique!"
