"You..."
"Got a problem?"
Xiong Jun bared his teeth and fixed his gaze on Yan Shaozhe.
The look seemed to carry weight. Yan Shaozhe felt the air around him grow heavy.
His expression shifted, but in the end, he said nothing. He only snorted.
I'm a man of culture. No point arguing with a Soul Beast.
Xuan Zi was about to feel pleased that someone had spoken up for him, until he realized it was Xiong Jun.
And Xiong Jun seemed to be insulting someone from Shrek.
His expression turned complicated. After a moment's hesitation, he swallowed his pride and said,
"Enough."
"Since you two from Star Dou are temporary Pavilion Elders too, sit down and listen."
Bi Ji glanced at Xuan Zi in surprise. She hadn't expected him to avoid another argument with Xiong Jun.
She tugged Xiong Jun back, and the two Soul Beasts sat down at the conference table.
The other Pavilion Elders couldn't help giving them strange looks.
Xuan Zi had already notified them, of course.
But still—
Soul Beasts attending a meeting in the Sea God Pavilion...
It was too damn strange!
Their gazes drifted toward the "source" of it all...
Long Yaochen.
Long Yaochen's expression didn't change. He simply introduced them.
"Pavilion Elders, since everyone's here today, I'll make this official."
"I'm sure these two seniors need no introduction..."
"This is Senior Xiong Jun from the Star Dou Great Forest, and this is Senior Bi Ji."
"Whether we're talking about Soul Spirit Formalization or anything else down the line..."
"We'll need the Soul Beasts' support. So I took it upon myself to give Star Dou temporary seats among the Pavilion Elders."
"I trust everyone..."
He paused, a faint smile rising to his lips.
"Has no objections?"
What a joke. Who would dare object?
