Compensation in Progress!

"You don't need to worry about the strength of Suihuo; I have my own ways. The current situation requires a pillar to steady the heavens.

If he goes, no one in the race will have any objections.

As for the candidates for the other three national lords, you will have to decide; you are the one in charge of the human race now.

You need to have your own judgment!"

Noah's arrangement for Giant Axe was clear: he was to be the powerful bodyguard for the human race.

After all, with his brain, while he could easily handle the schemes of other races, his nature still leaned toward adventure.

A reckless warrior born from the marrow of his bones would absolutely be a great hand at leading the human race to expand its territory.

But to develop steadily, it still required the likes of Chaos City Lord and Peak.

Even Peng Gong Master would not be a bad choice.

But for now, no matter what, Giant Axe was the head of the human race, and as a "dead man," it was inconvenient for Noah to show his face in many matters.

"This... I..." Hesitation was written all over Giant Axe's face.

He... even though he founded the Giant Axe Arena, he basically never participated in its management.

For the longest time, the management of the Giant Axe Arena had been handled by his disciple, Xu Jin Master.

Compared to Giant Axe's hands-off style, Xu Jin Master had almost single-handedly supported the entire structure of the Giant Axe Arena.

"Your growth must not be limited to strength. What the human race lacks is not combat power, but an existence that can plan the overall situation.

Perhaps your strength is already among the strongest in the human race, but in this vast world.

You and I are nothing more than ants that are relatively not so weak!"

Seeing this, Noah knew what was in Giant Axe's heart, but he had to possess such ability now.

"I understand!" Giant Axe suddenly realized, nodding as he walked out of the Plasma Spark Tower.

Meanwhile, on the other side, as the representative for the negotiations, Lord of Qingdong, after experiencing several God Kingdom Teleportations and the blessing of instant movement secret techniques, arrived first outside the territory of the Machine Race.

"Lord of Qingdong, I will be the one coordinating with you for this meeting!"

Hengxian Master, shining with a silver-white radiance, stood on a small planet and spoke with his noisy mechanical voice.

"Good!"

As the founder of the Universe First Bank, Lord of Qingdong was slightly different from Peng Gong Master.

Peng Gong Master was more skilled in management, while Lord of Qingdong was responsible for trade with alien races.

This was also one of the main reasons why he was the one to coordinate the compensation and redemption work.

Of course, the most important point was that Peng Gong Master was already preparing to break through at this time.

And he was the only negotiation expert left in the human race with enough weight.

"Good, according to the agreement between our Father God and Giant Axe Founder, our race has prepared sufficient resources and can proceed with the transaction at any time!"

Hengxian Master waved his hand, and a transaction—or rather, an exchange list—was presented before the two of them.

"It seems you do not intend to take back the members below the Undying level?"

Looking at this list, Lord of Qingdong keenly sensed that the Machine Race had likely abandoned the Undying-level members captured by the human race.

Hengxian Master did not deny it, only letting streams of data flash through his eyes.

"Fine! We didn't intend to release these Undyings anyway; it just so happens that our human race is still lacking some data on the Machine Race!"

Lord of Qingdong's words were blunt, but facing his open declaration of wanting to deal with the Machine Race, Hengxian Master's expression remained calm.

Lord of Qingdong also knew that he probably didn't have the ability to anger a piece of scrap metal that had no emotions to begin with.

He simply stopped wasting his breath and started thinking about how to use the chips in his hand to obtain more benefits.

Soon, Lord of Qingdong's choices were finalized.

Both of them gestured backward at the same time, and several World Rings appeared before them.

That's right, the transaction at this moment was actually under the constant surveillance of the Mechanical Father God and Giant Axe Founder.

Only they could instantly deliver the items into the hands of the two.

The first step after the transaction was reached was to confirm whether the items were genuine.

After Lord of Qingdong confirmed there were no issues, the will of Giant Axe instantly dissipated.

And Hengxian Master also nodded after confirming everything was correct.

"The goods and payment are settled. Hengxian Master, I will be leaving first!"

As the words fell, the figure of Lord of Qingdong sped away into the distance.

And Hengxian Master also utilized God Kingdom Teleportation to return to the territory of the Machine Race.

"Minglian Master, have you decided?"

Lord of Qingdong looked at the slightly hesitant Bug Race powerhouse before him and posed the question.

"This is too... Lord of Qingdong, you humans are truly..."

Minglian Master held the list proposed by Lord of Qingdong, the expression on her face trembling uncontrollably.

Even the surrounding cosmic space began to vibrate along with her.

"These are the conditions of my human race! Minglian Master, you should be clear that for other races, the value of a Bug Race Mother Emperor...

If our side were willing to offer a large number of Bug Race Mother Emperors and provide the secret techniques for soul enslavement, I believe their value would be no less than the price I have set, and perhaps even exceed it!"

Lord of Qingdong wore an indifferent expression, watching Minglian Master quietly.

"But..."

Minglian Master was left speechless upon hearing this. As for taking action?

Lord of Qingdong had many treasure-refining masters standing behind him, and the luxury of the equipment on his person was almost comparable to that of an average lone Universe Supreme Master.

Yet, in this war that had swept across the entire universe, she had suffered heavy losses against a human Universe Master named Goddess of Creation.

Resources and treasures accumulated over countless eons had been depleted by nearly a third.

The most fatal part of this was the loss of the many king-level Bug Race warriors she had painstakingly cultivated.

But right now... the demands of Lord of Qingdong were extremely excessive; the value of each Bug Race Venerable was almost comparable to an entire cosmic secret region.

And in this war, thirty Bug Race Venerables had been captured, which was enough for the human race to trade for three significant territories.

"These are our conditions. If you cannot accept them, I believe there will still be others willing to take these powerful combatants off our hands!"

As Lord of Qingdong spoke, he made a gesture as if to leave.

"Wait!" Seeing this, Minglian Master could no longer sit still. "We... agree!"

The expression on Lord of Qingdong's face instantly shifted from serious to excited, and he stepped forward to grasp Minglian Master's hand quite intimately.

"I hope we can reach new consensus on other issues as well!"

As the words fell, Lord of Qingdong took out a World Ring.

Minglian Master also waved her hand, offering up the agreed-upon resources.

"Our race will vacate the territories on the agreement as soon as possible, and I will personally hand them over to the human race at that time!"

"Pleasure doing business with you!"

Lord of Qingdong said with a smile, but there was not a hint of joy on Minglian Master's face.
