Before Yin Xuege could speak, a flash of blood-red light flickered in Farnburg's eyes. He suddenly laughed, "Is it because of those Easterners? Hmm, what exactly does your Yin Clan want to do? Well, Your Excellency Yin Tianjue, eating alone is a despicable act!"

The Yin Clan's mortar cannons let out a dull roar, and dozens of giant bombs were thrown high into the air, shooting far towards the metal city walls of the Great Berlin City-State. A breeze blew, and Yin Tianjue appeared beside Yin Xuege out of thin air, his hands behind his back.

"Prince Farnburg?" Yin Tianjue sighed faintly, "Because of your presence, we haven't shown ourselves these past few days! Your attitude towards our Yin Clan was not very good back then, and we had to consider carefully whether your appearance would be beneficial or detrimental to us!"

Farnburg chuckled, licking his lips forcefully. He bowed slightly, then spread his hands apart, keeping them as far from his body as possible—among the Blood Demon race, this gesture signified that he held no weapons and harbored no ill will! It was an extremely ancient traditional etiquette. When Farnburg made this move, it proved that he would not cause harm to the Yin Clan this time!

Yin Tianjue's tense face suddenly relaxed. He glanced at Yin Xuege and returned an identical gesture to Farnburg.

The bombs from the distant mortar cannons landed, and the terrifying sound of explosions echoed from afar, a black and red mushroom cloud rising into the sky. Brilliant halos lit up on the walls of the Great Berlin City-State, and countless distorted golden characters emerged from within the walls. This time, the Yin Clan's mortar cannons failed to breach the city walls.

"A very sturdy wall, hmm?" Yin Tianjue narrowed his eyes as he looked at Farnburg, "How about we join forces and break in?"

"Not interested!" Farnburg smiled at Yin Tianjue, "This is the Yin Clan's territory, so if you want to break in, that's your own business! I'm only here because of this little fellow, Yin Xuege! Although he doesn't know what the secret scripture commandments are, you should know!"

"Son of the Bloodline?" Yin Tianjue sighed and helplessly reached out to stroke Yin Xuege's head, "You cunning old man, you want to take advantage of Yin Xuege? Then, what can the Stuttgart Family give us?"

Farnburg's answer was incredibly direct, or rather, it could be described as frank: "Sunwalker! Great Ancestor above, I was thrown into the Blood Prison by those damned humans, but I never expected to encounter a young disciple with the Sunwalker talent in there!"

Shrugging his shoulders, Farnburg smiled at Yin Xuege and sighed heavily, "The only pity is that you're not one of the Stuttgart! But no matter what, in my long life, this is only the second time I've seen a Sunwalker! I've already missed one chance, so I absolutely cannot miss the second!"

"So, you schemed against Yin Xuege!" Yin Tianjue frowned, shaking his head with great distress.

"Can it be called scheming?" Farnburg said quickly, "Twenty drops of a Prince's vital blood! And I painstakingly left behind a lot of experience and memories! I allowed this little fellow to stand on the shoulders of a seasoned prince from the very beginning of his growth!"

Yin Xuege looked at Yin Tianjue and Farnburg, who were exchanging sharp words, and suddenly understood. He looked at the serious-looking Farnburg, then let out a helpless and troubled sigh, "You could actually escape using your own strength, couldn't you?"

Farnburg's expression became extremely colorful. He shrugged his shoulders and then tapped Yin Xuege's forehead forcefully.

"Alright, I admit, being captured and thrown into the Blood Prison by those damned humans is the greatest humiliation of my life! But I must also admit, given a few more days, I would have recovered enough strength to slip out of that damned Blood Prison!"

"The Blood Prison can hold others, but it's definitely not a problem for a powerful Blood Demon Prince, especially one named Stuttgart! Especially, whose name is the great Farnburg! Give me a few more days, and I could leave there myself!"

Exhaling, Farnburg looked intently at Yin Xuege, "But when old Farnburg discovered that right next door, there was a little Sunwalker being managed, unless old Farnburg's brain was malfunctioning, he would absolutely not let this opportunity pass! Therefore, my dear Yin Xuege, according to the most ancient secret scripture commandments, you are my Bloodline Son! No one can deny this fact!"

Glaring fiercely at Yin Tianjue, Farnburg sneered, "Don't think about monopolizing the benefits! Your Yin Clan isn't qualified to digest a Sunwalker! But with the Stuttgart Family, it will be no problem at all! He can receive the most perfect support, he can achieve the fastest growth, and with our combined efforts, he will become the youngest Prince in history!"

Yin Tianjue looked at Farnburg coldly. After a long while, he sighed helplessly.

"Since things have come to this, show your sincerity! Prince Farnburg, I still clearly remember that when the Yin Clan set foot on Western soil, you organized a punitive expedition from behind the scenes, causing us considerable trouble! You damn old stubborn!"

Farnburg laughed triumphantly. He patted Yin Xuege's hair forcefully and then burst into laughter.

"Then, my sincerity is that the Blood Chalice will be entrusted to your Yin Clan for safekeeping for a hundred years. You know its significance; it will bring immense benefits to your Yin Clan! Among the thirteen inherited sacred artifacts of the Blood Demon race, the Blood Chalice is the only origin!"

"Then, the Stuttgart Family and the Yin Clan will become sworn allies! Full cooperation, sworn allies with no reservations!"

"The Era of Dharma Decline is about to end, and a prosperous age is coming! But before the prosperous age, there will be a chaotic era of madness. Who knows how many lives will be lost? But if our two families can become sworn allies, we will fear nothing!"

"Finally, the Stuttgart Family will resolve a small troublesome matter for you with the Brianburg Family!"

Farnburg squinted and smiled, looking at Yin Tianjue with immense pride.

"A small troublesome matter with the Brianburg Family?" Yin Tianjue's face twitched violently. He glared fiercely at Farnburg and then cursed in a low voice, "Your sense of smell is truly keen!"

Rubbing his hands forcefully, Yin Tianjue extended his hand to Farnburg, "Then, generally speaking, we'll proceed like this. We'll discuss the specific agreement in detail later! For now, there's a cake in front of us that could be very delicious, or very difficult to digest, and we should join hands to obtain enough benefits from it!"

"Those Easterners? The Jiang Clan?" Farnburg grinned, his four long fangs slowly growing out.

"Those Easterners, the Jiang Clan!" Yin Tianjue said slowly, "The status of the Jiang Clan in the East is a hundred times more noble than ours in the West! You can't imagine the value of whatever can attract them here!"

Their hands clasped tightly, Yin Tianjue and Farnburg both laughed.

"Deal!" (To be continued)
