"I see!"

A sudden inspiration flashed through Wang Zheng's mind.

"Although the panel is gone now and I can't use any other abilities, if what this beast said is true, this clone ability is formed from my subconscious thoughts, then this ability should belong to me, not the panel."

In other words, I should be able to control the actions of this clone?

At the very least, it should have some impact on him. The fact that this ferocious beast is so anxious to escape means it's afraid I'll discover the connection!

Upon realizing this, Wang Zheng found it increasingly reasonable. Seeing that half of the ferocious beast's body had already disappeared into the void, Wang Zheng had no choice but to try anything, even if it seemed hopeless.

This guy in front of me is completely unyielding, neither to reason nor to force. If I really fail, there's nothing else I can do. It's better than doing nothing at all.

Without hesitation, Young Master Wang immediately cleared his mind, leaving only one thought in his mind: to retract the beast's clone back into his body.

"Dispel clones...dispel clones...dispel clones..."

Just as Young Master Wang was silently chanting in his heart, he watched as the void rift in the room was about to close.

But then a beam of red light shot out, as swift as lightning, and finally struck Wang Zheng, disappearing into his body...

The spatial rift in the lounge suddenly disappeared with a muffled "pop".

The next second, the furious beast reappeared in front of Young Master Wang.

At this moment, the two people with almost identical faces are still standing in the same place, staring at each other, without even changing their positions.

At this moment, one person looked helpless, while the other was overjoyed.

After Wang Zheng's experiment, the dominant positions of the human and the demon have undergone a dramatic change.

The ferocious beast looked somewhat helpless, still wanting to see if Wang Zheng was bluffing, so it loudly and insincerely shouted:

"Kid, I'm warning you, don't cause trouble. You can't control me, I'm a dignified..."

Before he could finish speaking, after Wang Zheng concentrated and silently recited the debunking mantra, the poor beast turned back into red light and was retracted into his body.

This was naturally because Young Master Wang saw through the beast's guilty conscience, and after continuing to try, he found that the beast indeed could not refuse his summons.

Wang Zheng was overjoyed, feeling that he had the upper hand and finally had the foundation to have an equal dialogue with this divine beast.

Another red light flashed, and the ferocious beast reappeared in front of Wang Zheng.

At this moment, he had lost his previous composure, his face showing difficulty, and he earnestly advised Wang Zheng:

"Why would you do this? I've lived a carefree life for hundreds of thousands of years, why would I stay in a human city?"

Besides, although we look alike, anyone with eyes can see through my disguise at a glance, and I can't possibly appear in Jingnan at the same time as you..."

"It's alright, you can stay inside me and focus on your cultivation. Helping me is also helping yourself, as you said yourself!"

"What nonsense about secluded cultivation? As long as you can improve your cultivation, my strength will naturally increase as well. So just focus on your efforts. Besides, I still need to find my true form, fight against the Heavenly Demon, and find a way to solve the problem. Do you want the tragedy of ten years from now to repeat itself?"

Seeing that this shameless guy actually used the Heavenly Demon as an excuse, Wang Zheng remained unmoved.

"Don't give me that crap. I don't believe you. You let it slip before that you wanted to escape, which is why you ran off to Earth."

And with so many parallel universes and time branches, you, as the only innate divine beast, would fight to the very last moment for Blue Star, the planet that has sealed you away for hundreds of thousands of years? You're kidding me..."

Now the tables have turned. After suffering repeated setbacks and seeing that Young Master Wang was unmoved by either soft or hard tactics, the ferocious beast was also enraged.

"Don't push your luck, kid. If you keep pushing me like this, I'll kill you! At worst, I'll just go back into the cycle of reincarnation and continue to sink into the abyss!"

Young Master Wang picked his nose, looking completely indifferent.

At the same time, he silently recited in his mind that he had put it back, and continued:

"Come on, I'd like to see the power of an ancient divine beast. Don't forget, you said yourself that your abilities can't surpass mine. Do you think I'm afraid of you?"

Besides, even if I can't beat you, can't I just take back this clone? It's just a matter of a thought.

And do you think you can survive if you kill me? Your strength isn't increasing? Does the original body not want to save you anymore?

As for re-entering the cycle of reincarnation, you can only use that to scare others, but it won't scare me. Do you really think I don't know how much it will cost?

And even if you're lucky enough to be reincarnated and start over, let's not even talk about whether you can regain your memories. Are you sure you can grow back to that level thirteen or fourteen years later?

You only have two choices now: either meet my conditions and we cooperate for a win-win situation, or you continue to cause trouble and I'll fight you to the death, and neither of us will get away with it..."

After hearing Wang Zheng's lengthy analysis, the ferocious beast wished it could slap itself a few times.

He hadn't expected that Wang Zheng would be able to deduce so much information from the few words he had uttered.

Moreover, he knew Wang Zheng's character very well; he was truly capable of doing things that harmed others without benefiting himself.

He said that even if he did nothing, he would just keep an eye on himself every day; he really has that kind of ruthlessness.

After a long silence, the beast, having had its underwear exposed, had no choice but to bow to Young Master Wang's evil forces in order to free its demonic body.

"Fine, fine, I give up. Just tell me what you want!"

Seeing that the ferocious beast had finally given in, Young Master Wang was overjoyed. Without hesitation, he immediately spoke:

"First, reconnect me to the main body as you mentioned. Without that data panel, many things will be inconvenient. This is also to ensure I can continue to improve my strength, and it will benefit you as well..."

Although the beast nodded in agreement with Wang Zheng's statement, it did not take any concrete action and instead looked troubled.

"I admit you have a point, but even so, I'm willing to help you, it's just that I really can't..."

"Hey~ don't rush, don't take it back, let me finish..."

Seeing that Wang Zheng had no intention of negotiating and was about to recall him, the ferocious beast shouted anxiously.

"I'm truly out of energy right now. I can't possibly sacrifice this body that's barely survived the transformation tribulation, can I? Unless you devour all the remaining spiritual fruits, there might still be a sliver of a chance..."
