Wang Zheng was startled and cautiously asked, "So Bai Meixi and his parents are all such demon kings?"
Old Man Chu was very satisfied with Wang Zheng's expression, feeling that this guy needed to be taught a lesson so that he wouldn't be so arrogant and cause trouble everywhere.
But she still smiled and explained, "No, only her father is the true Demon King. As for Bai Meixi, she is not entirely of a different race."
'It seems they've acknowledged that this alien race is intelligent.'
Wang Zheng keenly grasped the new term. Although he had already guessed it to some extent, he was still surprised to hear Chu Tianxing reveal these secrets.
He nervously swallowed, and cautiously asked, "How strong is her father, this Demon King? Are you, Principal, his match?"
Chu Tianxing thought about it seriously after hearing this: "Although we have never fought, judging from our aura, I might not have been his match before, but now that I have cultivated, I clearly feel that my strength has increased a lot."
Whether they can win is hard to say, but at least they can draw.
Upon hearing Chu Tianxing's reply, Wang Zheng became even more timid.
Even someone as formidable as Old Man Chu could only manage a draw, and that was based on his own assumptions. Who knows what tricks the opponent might have up their sleeve or hidden cards?
If he really harbors ill intentions towards me, then my death would have been in vain.
Didn't you hear what Old Man Chu said? They represent a neutral race and are the only demon king willing to communicate with humans.
Just kidding. If a big shot like that really thought he posed a threat to his daughter, he would just kill him. He would have died for nothing. Besides his parents, who else would stand up for him and seek justice?
Even if I did, I'm already dead!
No, absolutely not!
Wang Zheng's thoughts were in turmoil, but then Old Man Chu changed the subject again.
"If you really want to go, it's not impossible. I've met Master Bai a few times. He's quite open-minded, although his personality is rather... cough cough, rather carefree. But Bai Meixi's mother is a real human being, so with her there shouldn't be any major problems."
Oh no...
Wang Zheng was speechless with disbelief. So the little monster was actually a half-demon?
Everyone says that mixed-race people are the coolest, so wouldn't she be... a mixed-race person and a demon?
Moreover, Old Man Chu originally wanted to say that his personality was rather mild.
Don't think that just because I cough twice, I can pretend I didn't hear you. I'm not going, absolutely not going!
Wang Zheng had already made up his mind and resolutely refused in his heart.
Then he said, "Thank you, Principal. I understand. I will think about it carefully."
"You can think it over yourself. If you really decide to go, I may not be able to go with you. Entering and leaving Zijin Mountain requires approval, the procedures are very complicated, and there is no guarantee that it will be approved."
Wang Zheng nodded to indicate that he understood, and then continued to ask, "Could you tell me more about the strange beasts? Anyway, even if you don't tell me, I can still find out when I go to Zijin Mountain."
Chu Tianxing considered for a moment and then said, "Go ahead and ask, I'll answer depending on the situation."
Wang Zheng asked directly, "Since powerful beasts are intelligent, why are there still conflicts between humans and beasts? And why have the battles continued on the front lines until now?"
"It was because they were intelligent, and after they had their own leaders, that they began to have conflicts with humans."
Since the awakening of spiritual energy on Earth, all kinds of plants and animals, including mountains, rivers, forests, and vegetation, have evolved rapidly, seemingly completing a long evolutionary journey in just a few decades.
After the beasts gained intelligence, they became dissatisfied with their current living environment and harbored hatred towards humans. As a result, several demon kings joined forces to launch attacks against humans.
They wanted to become the masters of Earth and overthrow human rule.
Furthermore, even among humans, there are numerous contradictions and constant conflicts. How much more so for the alien beasts, a completely new intelligent race. Survival resources are only a small part of the reason; the root cause lies in the difference in ideologies and the rapid development of the times.
Moreover, low-level alien beasts have a strong reproductive capacity and large numbers. If the warriors on the front line do not keep hunting them, they will soon become a plague. Alien beasts have no concept of sustainable development.
If the Chinese government hadn't proposed a plan to forcibly intervene and control the spiritual energy revival in its early stages, the entire country would probably be overrun by strange beasts by now.
Look at the Australian continent and the high plateau now; they are overrun with strange beasts, and humans have no place to live.
Moreover, most of the alien beasts hate humans. Just as we can increase our spiritual energy limit by eating alien beast ingredients, alien beasts are even more so. The boost they gain from devouring each other or eating awakened beings is even greater.
Therefore, the conflict between humans and animals can be considered irreconcilable.
