"If you were a soul beast, perhaps I wouldn't kill you. I might even take you in, just as Di Tian took me in."
"Unfortunately, you're human. But that's fine. I eat the corpses of prey I acknowledge. Consider it a courtesy to you."
Bear Lord's voice gradually calmed, no longer carrying its previous rage, yet somehow becoming even more dangerous.
"A very fair duel. If you lose, I'll gladly accept all this fine flesh of yours. The flesh of one of the Ten Great Beasts can't possibly taste bad. So, have you prepared yourself to become prey?"
Huo Yuhao was not intimidated by Bear Lord's threats in the slightest. Bears could eat humans, but humans could devour bears as well. It was a clash of equals; neither should think itself the hunter, nor the prey.
Their exchange was merely a means of applying pressure to one another, making the other subconsciously place themselves in the position of prey facing a hunter.
But unfortunately, both Bear Lord and Huo Yuhao were top-tier hunters. Neither was willing to become prey, and neither would subconsciously believe that they were prey.
It had to be said that Huo Yuhao was unlike every Soul Master Bear Lord had encountered. The aura he exuded, inside and out, did not resemble that of a human Soul Master at all. Instead, he was like a starving wolf wearing human skin, waiting to choose someone to devour.
Even among the many Titled Douluo Bear Lord had killed, none possessed such vicious, bloodthirsty eyes.
It could clearly sense that Huo Yuhao truly saw himself as the hunter, rather than merely putting on a show.
