Soul Beast Embryo
Xu Xingyu stared at the contents of the ring in silence for Jiujiu; he never expected to see such a thing!
After all, this thing should theoretically no longer exist!
The storage ring actually contained the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Embryo from the original story!
However, Snow Empress had already transformed into human form ahead of time, which is now Xu Xingyu's nominal adopted sister Xu Yanxue.
Where did their Star Luo Empire get Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Embryo from?!
While it's normal for the God Sealing Platform to still exist, is it really possible that a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form would be discovered by sheer coincidence? That's too much of a coincidence!
Thinking of this, Xu Xingyu began to use her Spiritual Power to sense the true form of the sealed Soul Beast.
Although this Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Embryo also exudes a powerful ice attribute, it is actually a Soul Beast with both ice and water attributes.
As for the specific Soul Beast, Xu Xingyu is currently unable to sense its true form through the God Sealing Platform without provoking it.
Therefore, he could only turn to Xu Jiujiu and ask coldly, "Where did you get this thing from?"
Xu Xingyu didn't ask the naive question of why she did such a thing, after all, no matter how much the relationship between humans and Soul Beast improved, this world was still ultimately a world where the strong prey on the weak.
The weak have no dignity or right to speak.
That Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that had transformed into human form was indeed pitiful, but having chosen the path of transformation, it should have been aware that it might be discovered by humans.
This guy was just a bit unlucky; he was captured before he could fully transform into human form.
But this still made Xu Xingyu feel somewhat uncomfortable, so he didn't continue to be polite.
Seeing Xu Xingyu's eyes grow cold, Xu Jiujiu knew that if he didn't explain Xu Xingyu's question properly, the relationship between the Spirit Contract Pagoda and the Star Luo Empire would become very strained.
After all, the Spirit Contract Pagoda is ultimately an organization that aims to ease the relationship between humans and Soul Beast. If news of the God Sealing Platform incident were to reach the Ferocious Beast who support the Spirit Contract Pagoda, they would definitely declare war on humans because of this.
Therefore, Xu Jiujiu pause, he said, "I think Xingyu, you should be able to tell that this God Sealing Platform is a Level 9 Soul Tool, capable of conferring God Sealing Platform upon any being below the Super Douluo."
"What's sealed inside is a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that hasn't yet taken human form; it's the embryo of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast."
Xu Xingyu interrupted Xu Jiujiu speech and said, "I'm not so dense as to not see these things. Please get to the important parts."
Xu Jiujiu nodded and continued, "This all started a month ago. A Soul Engineer and his companions brought this God Sealing Platform to our Starlight Auction House, intending to auction it off."
"At first, we were quite welcoming, after all, very few people can sell a Level 9 Soul Tool. However, after learning that this God Sealing Platform had sealed a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, we immediately apprehended the person and his companion and imprisoned them in the Star Luo Empire's dungeon for interrogation."
"We in the Star Luo Empire are aware that this item will offend the Ferocious Beast that are on good terms with your Spirit Contract Pagoda, so we did not immediately hand it over to your Spirit Contract Pagoda."
"Oh, then why show it to me? Aren't you afraid I'll tell those old guys?" Xu Xingyu asked, squinting.
Xu Jiujiu shook his head and said, "You are a reasonable person. You probably know that the so-called peace between humans and Soul Beast is impossible. After all, this is a world where the strong prey on the weak."
"But that doesn't mean you'll intentionally sabotage the hard-won relationship between humans and Soul Beast. Not only would that infringe on your personal interests, but you'd also lose everything you have now should a beast tide break out."
Xu Xingyu wanted to complain about this, saying that it wasn't that serious. After all, he was the reincarnation of the Dragon God's son, and with Gu Yuena around, those Ferocious Beast wouldn't attack him casually.
However, considering that the other party had no idea about this, it was best not to bring it up; some things are better left unsaid.
Although he still trusted Xu Jiujiu's character, they hadn't reached the point where they could openly share their secrets with each other.
Xu Jiujiu, seeing that Xu Xingyu showed no intention of speaking, she continued, "Therefore, our Star Luo Empire hopes to resolve this matter privately with you, since we have no intention of having a conflict with the Spirit Contract Pagoda."
Hearing this, Xu Xingyu said gratefully, "I understand. On behalf of the Xu Xingyu Spirit Contract Pagoda, I express my gratitude to you, because you are right. We, the people of the Spirit Contract Pagoda, may be able to suppress the rebellion of the Soul Beast to some extent, but if this continues, it will eventually become a disaster. This time, the Spirit Contract Pagoda owes you, Star Luo Empire, a favor, and we will repay it in the future."
Seeing that Xu Xingyu had already put away her cold gaze, Xu Jiujiu smiled and said, "Then I'll thank you in advance, Young Tower Master."
"This is what you deserve, but I have a request that I hope Star Luo Empire can grant for me."
"Oh, what is the request?" Xu Jiujiu asked, puzzled.
Xu Xingyu said slowly, "I hope you can hand that Soul Engineer and his gang over to our Spirit Contract Pagoda for disposal. After all, someone has to bear some responsibility."
At this point, Xu Jiujiu began to hesitate.
She could understand why Xu Xingyu would do this, because their Spirit Contract Pagoda wouldn't kill the Soul Beast embryo; they would only unseal it, allowing the Soul Beast to regain its freedom.
As a 100,000-year-old Soul Beast Soul Beast must have its own connections among Soul Beast. If it reports this matter to those Ferocious Beast Soul Beast, their attitude towards humans will further decline, which is not very friendly to the future development of the Spirit Contract Pagoda.
Therefore, it is necessary to expose the gang that captured this Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast to vent our anger, which will make it easier to win over the hearts of those Soul Beast.
However, the value of a Level 9 Soul Engineer is still very high for the Star Luo Empire. This is not only due to the blueprints they possess, but also to the Soul Guidance knowledge they have, which are invaluable treasures to the Star Luo Empire.
It would be such a waste if they just died like that.
Xu Xingyu, sensing the other's Xu Jiujiu, guessed what they were thinking and said, "Don't worry, we will provide your Star Luo Empire with some compensation for this matter."
"Not only will we give you some of the latest Soul Tool researched by our Spirit Contract Pagoda, but we will also give you a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Spirit suitable for your Star Luo Imperial Family."
After listening to Xu Xingyu's impressive methods for a long time, he couldn't help but be stunned. Putting aside the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Spirit, the latest Soul Guidance Technology of the Spirit Contract Pagoda alone was enough to make up for the knowledge of a Level 9 Soul Engineer.
After all, the Spirit Contract Pagoda is currently the only entity on the entire continent that can rival the Sun Moon Empire in terms of Soul Guidance Technology.
Xu Jiujiu, she stopped worrying about those irrelevant things and immediately agreed, "Okay, then so be it."
"By the way, do you know what kind of Soul Beast Soul Beast that was sealed away is? It looks like it's ice-attribute, and it's from the Far North, right?"
"Oh, that one. Although it was captured near the Far North, it wasn't from the Far North, but rather from the icy sea near the Far North."
"Its species is the Demon Soul Great White Shark, known as the Ocean Predator."
"So it's the Demon Soul Great White Shark! Wait, the Demon Soul Great White Shark?!?!?"
