Upon hearing her words, Yun Xi broke out in a cold sweat.
In other words, this rule can disregard the System Contract that prohibits members of a faction from killing each other, allowing those in power to directly reap the benefits of those in lower positions.
She immediately thought of the president of the Sorcerer Association. Did he... know about the Special Laws of this strange realm?
"Your Highness, I know you have now entered the forces of that outsider. But you are not worried. I will acknowledge your identity as the Son of the God of Light. In this strange realm, only His Highness the Main God of Light can use Special Laws to exploit you. Other forces are secondary."
Yun Xi couldn't help but smile bitterly to herself, but the problem was, she wasn't the Holy Son of Light!
What if the Sorcerer Association Master really can take him down?
Yun Xi inwardly agitated, but remained outwardly calm.
She suddenly remembered something and asked Xiao Hei, "You mean, among all the factions I've joined, only the highest-ranking identity takes effect?"
"That's right. In this matter, we also need to weigh the gap between the two forces. If the overall strength of the 'high-status' force is far lower than that of the 'low-status' force, then your 'high-status' identity will not be effective."
"Your Highness, you can rest assured that no matter how weak the Temple of Light may be, it still has a God of Light in the Divine Realm, so it is impossible for it to be inferior to your current power."
Upon hearing this, Yun Xi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Although she is not the Son of the God of Light, she is the sole successor of the Goddess of Freedom and the next head of the Freedom Temple.
With the Goddess of Freedom now fallen, no one holds a higher position than her.
The Freedom Temple is also Lord God Tier power in the Divine Realm, and by all accounts, it is stronger than the overall strength of the Sorcerer Association.
In some respects, as the next God of the Freedom Temple, his status is even higher than that of the Son of the God of Light.
If the Sorcerer Association President's purpose in moving the headquarters here... is indeed to reap the benefits from everyone, then she is not afraid at all.
Thinking of this, Yun Xi quickly sent a message to Eliza.
Regardless of the circumstances, Eliza had been very good to her, so she naturally couldn't let her fall into this predicament. Whether the president of the Sorcerer Association intended to do so or not, Yun Xi had to give him a heads-up.
Eliza, who was still at the Sorcerer Association headquarters, suddenly focused his gaze upon seeing the message from Yun Xi.
[Yun Xi, are you telling the truth?]
[Absolutely true.]
Yun Xi has already signed a contract with Xiao Hei, so Xiao Hei cannot lie to her. However, it is inconvenient for her to explain Xiao Hei's identity to Eliza.
Eliza naturally trusted Yun Xi, after all, the two had signed a contract that they could not betray each other.
The special rule of this strange realm is that the superior can reap everything from the inferior. Apart from this rule being able to override the System Contract, the contents of other contracts will not be affected.
[Yun Xi, since you know this rule, why did you tell me? Aren't you afraid I'll take advantage of you?]
[You can't, can you?] Yun Xi was well aware of her own strength; she knew that Eliza valued her potential.
Regardless of Eliza's character, even if Eliza were truly awful, he wouldn't do something so foolish as to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs.
[Yes, I won't, Yun Xi. Regardless of whether there's a contract between us, I will never become that kind of... heartless and insane person who disregards the lives of others.]
[I believe the guild leader isn't that kind of person. He knows about the existence of Merit Points, and if he really uses the Special Laws of this strange realm to harvest us... his Merit Points will definitely plummet to negative numbers.]
[But Yisha, have you forgotten? The president has now become a monster using special magic. Even if it's reversible, what if his mind is affected while he's in this state?]
Yun Xi didn't know much about the president of the Sorcerer Association, so she viewed the matter from the perspective of an outsider.
Yisha remained silent.
He knew in his heart that Yunxi's words made some sense.
[Furthermore, as far as I know, behind the Vengeful Domain Lord, there is another mysterious deity of unknown level.]
[Yisha, if you truly trust the president, you might as well tell him about this special rule and see his reaction.]
[By the way, a reminder to the guild leader: after all, while he's officially the city lord of this city, in a sense, he's also Vengeful Domain Lord.]
[Vengeful Domain Lord, Mumu, only allowed him to become the city lord because he wanted to exploit the guild leader?]
When thinking about this aspect, Yun Xi was indeed very worried about the situation of the Sorcerer Association.
[Okay, Yun Xi, I understand. Come quickly, it's not safe outside. I'll talk to the president about this myself, but before that, I need to send you and Jin Chen away. There's no room for discussion.]
Yun Xi was not an overconfident person. Although she had the identity of the successor of the Goddess of Freedom and did not need to fear being harvested, her strength was really weak. In front of a demigod-level figure, she was no match at all.
After thinking for a moment, he agreed to Yisha Sha's request and turned to say goodbye to Xiao Hei.
"Xiao Hei, do you still plan to stay in this strange realm?"
"Yes, Your Highness. I have been staying in this wondrous realm because there is something I cannot disclose to you, and it requires my assistance. But Your Highness, rest assured, I will definitely seek you out after I have resolved this matter. From now on, I will protect Your Highness."
Yun Xi shook her head. "No need. I still need to rely on myself. If I depend on your protection, I won't be able to become a true powerhouse, right?"
"Take this thing. If you encounter a fatal danger and can't withstand it, you can choose to summon me. No matter where I am, I will come to your aid."
"Okay, thank you, Xiao Hei."
Xiao Hei handed Yun Xi a warm, smooth, white jade pendant, engraved with extremely unique and complex runes.
When Xiao Hei handed the jade pendant to Yun Xi, a hint of reluctance still lingered in its eyes.
"Your Highness, this is the jade pendant you once bestowed upon me. Now I present it to you, hoping you will cherish it."
"I can do it, Xiao Hei." Yun Xi smiled at her, feeling a pang of shame.
Even though he knew he wasn't the God of Light Divine Child, he could still accept the benefits without batting an eye.
But in any case, the threat from the Xiao Hei cat has finally been resolved.
After signing the contract, there was no need to worry about her attacking him again. In fact, he even benefited from the misfortune by learning the secret laws of this strange realm.
Xiao Hei escorted Yun Xi to the City Lord's Mansion. Just as Yun Xi was about to enter, Yisha suddenly sent her a message.
[Yun Xi, things have changed, don't come yet.]
