"Imperial Remnant Manor?" Huang Xiao said in some surprise. "So it was them."
"Yes. According to some information I learned in the core area this time, all these Divine Beasts came from Imperial Remnant Manor. The Divine Beasts our Heavenly Demon Hall received were actually of relatively inferior grades. Most of the Divine Beasts, including some high-grade ones, were kept at the Main Hall," Yin Huju said.
"Does the Main Hall also use these Divine Beasts to craft something?" Huang Xiao asked.
"I don't know. That isn't something I'm privy to," Yin Huju said.
Huang Xiao nodded. These matters clearly involved deeper secrets. Perhaps only someone of the Hall Master's standing would know something about them.
He had no desire to pursue the matter further. Whatever use the Main Hall had for the Divine Beasts was not something he could concern himself with.
"Does this count as a trade between Imperial Remnant Manor and our Demon Hall?" Huang Xiao asked.
"I suppose so. They exchange Divine Beasts for our Demon Hall's nonaggression. After all, through so many Thousand-Year Periods, our Demon Hall has never attacked Imperial Remnant Manor. The Divine Beasts are an important reason for that," Yin Huju said. "Oh, I also heard some vague rumors that the Divine Beasts Imperial Remnant Manor provided this time weren't of the same quality as before. The lords at the Main Hall seemed very displeased."
"Perhaps Imperial Remnant Manor really can't supply them anymore. How could Divine Beasts be so easy to raise?" Huang Xiao said with a soft chuckle.
"True. Presumably, Imperial Remnant Manor still wouldn't dare offend our Demon Hall," Yin Huju said, nodding.
"So they really are raised in captivity, then slaughtered! How are these Divine Beasts any different from ordinary livestock?" Huang Xiao said with a sigh.
