As for the power of reincarnation, he did not want to use it, lest the Tree Demon Clan suspect that Old Willow was hiding another strange entity within him.
The battle continued, and the Monkey Clan elder was getting impatient.
His body suddenly began to swell, transforming from human form back into his original tea tree form, and rapidly growing larger.
In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a giant tree hundreds of meters tall.
This is the strongest combat state of a Tree Demon.
"I already showed you mercy, but you didn't know what was good for you. So don't blame me for being ruthless. I'll kill all of you vicious monsters and then deal with you slowly."
The elder of the Houkui tribe transformed back into his original tea tree form. The trunk trembled slightly, and countless tender green tea leaves fell down.
It then turned into a storm, like a green typhoon.
Wherever it passed, hills were leveled, and even a few fierce monsters that were only affected by it caused great damage.
Xia Tianqiong narrowed his eyes slightly, and with a thought, he pulled all seven fierce monsters back into his body.
He knew there was no point in continuing the fight.
"Stop! Stop fighting!"
The green storm froze abruptly at those words, and from within the great tree came the mocking voice of the Monkey King elder, "What? Finally figured it out?"
"Okay, I've thought it through. I've decided to give you a gift."
A tablet computer suddenly appeared in Xia Tianqiong's hand, and something was playing on it.
This was prepared at the very beginning of the battle.
The Monkey Clan elder was puzzled. Was this person trying to offer a gift to beg for mercy?
He is now in his original form, without eyes, but he can still use his senses to "see" the gift.
"What is that? Huh? Where did this power of rules come from? Oh, it's... you bastard, you tricked me!"
A large amount of power of rules inexplicably appeared within the strange realm, surrounding the giant tree.
First, it easily destroyed the green storm, and then it directly tore apart the Monkey King Elder's body.
Branches and tea leaves were torn off one by one, and cracks appeared on the thick trunk.
The power of rules has always been this violent!
Summer Qiong looked up at the hundred-meter-tall tree with a relaxed smile on his face.
"Elder Monkey Clan, I told you long ago that if I made a move, you wouldn't even have a chance to regret it, but you didn't believe me!"
The Monkey Clan elder desperately tried to heal his injuries, his voice trembling slightly, "No wonder you have so much Nether Gold, it turns out you possess forbidden techniques!"
"Do you regret it now? If you do, I'll give you another chance. Sign the Human Lord Contract with me."
"Bullshit! Even if I perish between heaven and earth, I will not be a slave. Don't be so smug. Using forbidden techniques against me is utterly foolish. Your fate will be even worse than mine... Ah!"
As the elder of the Monkey Clan finished speaking, he suddenly screamed in agony.
It seems I said something I shouldn't have, and triggered the rules again.
More power of rules appeared out of thin air and began to tear at his body, faster and more violently.
The once towering tree, hundreds of meters tall, gradually became bare, and then visibly shortened and shrank.
This is the consequence of severe damage to the ghost body.
Xia Tianqiong frowned slightly, knowing that using forbidden techniques in this way would have negative consequences.
He had originally promised the ghost bride that he would not use forbidden techniques for one or two years.
But in this situation, we have no choice but to use it!
Seeing that the Monkey Clan Elder was growing weaker and weaker, Xia Tianqiong kindly advised, "You are, after all, an elder of the Tree Ghost Clan, a respected figure in the Ghost Realm. Are you really willing to perish like this?"
"As you said, I am an elder of the Tree Ghost Clan. If I were to sign a human-master contract with you, our Tree Ghost Clan would have no face to live in the Ghost Realm. So I would rather die."
The elder of the Monkey Clan was resolute and seemed utterly unafraid of extinction.
This was completely unexpected by Xia Tianqiong.
But he absolutely couldn't let this guy die, otherwise the entire Tree Demon Clan would definitely turn against him.
All the previous plans will fail because of this!
The most important thing now is to join forces with the Tree Demon Clan and destroy the Void Demon Clan. Compared to that, this demon general in front of us is not particularly important.
We can let him off the hook for now and find another opportunity to deal with him later.
Having considered this, Xia Tianqiong changed the subject, "Elder Houkui, as I said before, we have a common enemy and should not be hostile to each other."
"Here's what we'll do: you sign a contract with me first, and after I rescue you, I'll break the contract and give you your freedom."
The elder of the Monkey Clan was clearly stunned for two seconds, his voice filled with surprise and doubt, "You would be so kind? You don't have some other scheme in mind, do you?"
Ha, even if I had ulterior motives, I wouldn't tell you!
Xia Tianqiong thought to herself, but said aloud, "Of course I'm not that kind. If you die here, the Silver Fir Clan elders won't let me off the hook either."
"That's right, how come I didn't think of that!"
The Monkey Clan elder was overjoyed and shouted, "Hurry up, let's sign an equal contract. If we delay any longer, it will damage my very essence."
"No, we need to sign a human-master contract."
"They were both trying to save me, what's the difference? Were you lying just now?"
"You're wrong. This isn't about saving you; it's about saving myself."
Xia Tianqiong wasn't in a hurry. Standing there, she slowly explained, "You've targeted me twice already. Obviously, I can't stay here any longer, otherwise you'll attack me again in the future."
I'm worried the other elders won't let me leave so easily, so you're my protector. The contract will be dissolved once I leave the Tree Demon Clan.
The elder of the Houkui tribe felt that what he said made sense, but the key was that there was no time to bargain now.
If we keep arguing, we'll only end up killing ourselves!
“I agree, but the contract must clearly stipulate two things: First, the contract must be terminated immediately upon leaving my clan’s territory, and this time must not exceed one hour. If the time is exceeded, the contract will automatically become invalid.”
Second, during the duration of the contract, you are not allowed to harm me, insult me, or force me to do anything harmful to the Tree Demon Clan.
"If you agree to these two conditions, I will sign the human-master contract; otherwise, I would rather die."
Xia Tianqiong smiled slightly and readily agreed, "Okay, no problem."
One person and one ghost then signed a contract.
The power of the contract dispelled the power of the rules, and the Monkey Clan Elder was finally saved.
Although they were rescued, they were also severely injured.
Its main body was severely damaged, its strength was greatly reduced, and it will take a long time to recover.
But at that moment, Xia Tianqiong's vision suddenly blurred, and it seemed that many inexplicable images flashed before her eyes.
Immediately afterwards, a sharp pain shot through my head.
The pain was excruciating, penetrating to the very marrow and soul; it was utterly unbearable.
The next second, everything went black, and he fell straight down.
The elder of the Monkey Clan, who had just transformed back into human form, was startled by this scene.
"Holy crap, what's going on? Don't die!"
The greatest threat to the Human Lord Contract is that if a human dies, the Contract Monster will also die.
