Chapter 389: Conversation with Xili (1/2)

Although Xili was surprised at how Ryan had entered her room without anyone noticing, Xili, as the patriarch of the Colorful Bird Clan for many years, remained calm.

She was wearing a colorful dress, with her long hair draped behind her. The colorful feathers growing out of her arms gradually blended into the colorful dress.

"Lord Ryan is really courageous. He dares to appear before me at the beginning of the fourth level." Xili said indifferently while sitting on the chair.

"Aren't you afraid that I will capture you and sacrifice you to the Lord God of Mist?"

Xili said it as if catching Ryan was easy for her, a mid-level great demon.

Ryan sat directly opposite Xili, took out a set of tea sets from the magic device, slowly poured tea, and spoke while fiddling with the tea sets in his hands.

"Capture me in exchange for that chance to evolve? Of course I can."

"But does Chief Xili really need that so-called evolution?"

Xili frowned, "What do you mean?"

Ryan said, "As far as I know, the so-called evolution is nothing more than a slight improvement in one's talent for chain repair and a direct increase in strength."

"Some higher-level treasures can basically do that."

"Chief Xili's talent is probably considered excellent among the Winged Clan. You may not need this small improvement in your talent."

Xili glanced at Ryan who was carefully pouring tea, and a strange look flashed in her eyes.

Being able to pour tea in the enemy camp without changing his expression, he is indeed a man of character.

She smiled and said, "No matter how big the improvement is, it's better than nothing."

"Then... Chief Xili doesn't want to see the sky outside. After all, I heard that you have been longing for the sky outside for a long time." Ryan held the poured tea and smiled mysteriously.

Hearing this, Xili sneered, as if she had already thought of what Ryan was going to say next, and said.

"The sky outside? Haha, I know why you came to see me."

"Are you going to say later that as long as I help you, you will promise to take you away to the outside world when you leave the foggy land?"

Ryan paused holding the teacup, smiled and nodded.

"As expected of Chief Xili, this is indeed the purpose of my appearance."

Xili sneered, "Impossible! Even if I promised you, I would never leave the Mist Land."

"The ancestors of the Colorful Bird Clan have long verified this. Whether signing a master-servant contract or using a special space, those of us in the Misty Land will be repelled by the power of teleportation."

Ryan frowned, took a sip of tea, and asked, "Special space?"

Xili said, "It is an independent dimension that can be entered with a certain 'key'."

Ryan nodded, realizing that what Xili was talking about was the so-called secret realm.

Then Ryan was troubled. Even the secret realm couldn't take away the people of the foggy land. This was a bit troublesome...

Seeing that Ryan was silent, Xili spoke.

"As soon as we are born in the Land of Mist, we are marked as such. Without the joint consent of the Lord of Mist and the Lord of Candlelight, we cannot leave the Land of Mist."

"And the Lord God of Mist and the Lord God of Candlelight are as hostile as fire and water. It's impossible for the two sides to reach a consensus, so... hehe."

Hearing this, Ryan smiled.

It would be good if you have the conditions to go out.

The God of Candlelight would most likely agree to let Ryan take his men away, but he might also refuse.

After all, if Ryan takes his men away, it will weaken the strength of the Candlelight camp. In order to gain an advantage in the foggy land, the God of Candlelight may not let Ryan take his men away easily.

As for the God of Mist, everything can be negotiated. At worst, when the territory becomes powerful enough, we can use the Mist Camp in the entire Mist Land to threaten him.

All Ryan wanted to take away were his subjects, not that many people.

Moreover, if Ryan takes his men away, it will indirectly weaken the strength of the God of Candlelight. Therefore, there is a probability that the God of Mist will agree.

But... the premise of all this is: first expand the size and strength of the territory to the point where you can negotiate terms with the two gods.
