Zhu Yan tumbled in Hanyang Lake, having reached its limit in endurance of attacks. If it could not escape the predicament of the struggle for sovereignty, it would inevitably be destroyed by the experts of the Holy Spirit Clan and the Human Clan.
"When a person dies, it's like a lamp going out; if it's rekindled, it's just a flickering candle!"
Jiang Yuan watched the battle between the experts at the Divine Realm not far away and sighed. Just as he was about to go to sleep, a black shadow with extremely fast speed shot towards him.
"Pretty fast!" Jiang Yuan grabbed the shadowy figure without turning his head. Only when the shadowy figure landed did he realize that it was a dark bone token carved from bone.
The Beast King's Token was delivered by someone from the Three Sovereigns Family. They must have been instructed by Mi Tan'er. After delivering it, they didn't dare to show their faces and left immediately.
"Mutual benefit is not bad!" Jiang Yuan didn't think there was anything wrong with doing this. He was also helping the human race by taking the Beast King's Token, so it was only natural for Mi Tan'er to do this.
However, Mi Tan'er's help this time must be for other reasons, most likely to lay the groundwork for a better relationship between the two.
If a scheming woman is being friendly with you, it means she has something about you that she's interested in.
"However, if you can fall for my tricks once, you can do it again!"
Jiang Yuan tied the Beast King's Token to the tip of the arrow, then activated the arrow-drawing technique of the Elf Archery, and shot the arrow toward Zhu Yan with great force.
The moment the Beast King's Token appeared, Xie Chuan sensed it, and his soul instantly took control of it.
Because of the additional Beast King Token, his control over Zhu Yan was strengthened. However, although his control was enhanced, he still could not share the Zhu Yan inheritance with Chi Yu.
"Not enough!" Jiang Yuan shook his head, stating his judgment.
Xie Chuan still had a few bargaining chips: three Beast King Tokens and half a heart that had not been nourished by divine blood. Although he had the advantage of having his soul enter the Zhu Yan skeleton, Chi Yu was a beastman and had prepared living blood and ten thousand beast souls for the Zhu Yan skeleton. This was the key to the Zhu Yan's revival. If he wanted to gain a foothold in the control, he could only rely on external forces.
Jiang Yuan heard footsteps behind him. The other party wasn't very strong, and he could guess who it was.
"My cousin asked me to bring you something!" Ke Zhiyuan presented a sandalwood box.
"What is she doing now?" Jiang Yuan had thought Liu Zhaodi would deliver it herself.
Ke Zhiyuan placed the sandalwood box on the ground, then shrugged and said, "I'm currently fighting against a divine being from another race, and I can't get away!"
"Alright!"
Jiang Yuan attracted the sandalwood box on the ground, opened it and saw a Beast King Token and a job change book. The number of Beast King Tokens was as expected, but the job change book was the only thing that surprised him.
"Then I'll be going now!" Ke Zhiyuan didn't dare to call him brother-in-law in front of him, and left very formally after putting down his things.
Jiang Yuan used the same trick again, using the Elf Archery technique to send the Beast King's Token to Xie Chuan. However, this time the action clearly aroused Zhu Yan's instincts, and it began to resist the addition of the Beast King's Token.
"I reckon we're missing one piece! Or maybe two!"
Jiang Yuan wasn't sure if a Beast King Token was still useful, but he had no way to find one now.
As for the Holy Spirit Clan, he didn't have much hope. Unless Wei Yue was truly insane, she wouldn't choose to help him.
"Click!"
The sound of a dry branch being broken by footsteps reached Jiang Yuan's ears. He activated all five senses, but his expression became quite interesting.
Wei Yue is here!
Jiang Yuan glanced at the willow trees by the lake, where a petite figure was trying to hide.
"Come out!" Jiang Yuan stretched and walked towards the willow tree without suspicion. He was quite surprised this time that Wei Yue had come alone.
As soon as she finished speaking, Wei Yue seemed to have gone through a fierce internal struggle before mustering the courage to come out.
"Have you come to repay a debt of gratitude?" Jiang Yuan asked Wei Yue in a teasing tone.
“There is no gratitude between us, only hatred!” Wei Yue shook her head. She wanted to put on a fierce expression, but having once yielded to him, she could no longer pretend.
"You've got guts, coming here alone. Aren't you afraid I'll try something on you?" Jiang Yuan reached out and pinched her cheek.
"Take your hand away!"
Wei Yue shivered and took a step back, gritting her teeth and saying angrily, "Why did you ask me for help?"
"We've become acquainted through a misunderstanding, so since we're old friends, asking a friend for a favor shouldn't be a problem, right?" Jiang Yuan said shamelessly.
"Who said we're friends? I haven't even settled the score with you from last time!" Wei Yue said sternly.
"I know you were very grateful when I saved you last time and really wanted to find a chance to repay me, but I'm the kind of person who does good deeds without expecting anything in return, so don't take it to heart!" Jiang Yuan said with a beaming smile, preemptively misinterpreting what Wei Yue was trying to say.
"This must be the Beast King's Token!"
After Jiang Yuan finished speaking, he stared at the bone token that Wei Yue was tightly clutching in her hand, and he reached out his hand to Wei Yue without any politeness.
However, he did not obtain the Beast King's Token. Instead, Wei Yue bit his tiger's mouth hard.
Wei Yue frowned, but she wouldn't let go until she bit Jiang Yuan's tiger's mouth until blood flowed into her mouth before she eased her grip.
"Ouch!" Jiang Yuan hissed in pain.
Without biting, Wei Yue sucked some of the seeping blood, then said with a strange smile, "So, this is what your blood tastes like!"
"This is compensation for biting you!" Wei Yue opened her palm and placed one of the Beast King Tokens in Jiang Yuan's bitten hand.
Jiang Yuan was completely confused, but when he saw that Wei Yue had another Beast King Token, he suppressed his temper and said gently, "Look how polite you are, even giving me two tokens. I feel so embarrassed!"
Wei Yue remained calm. She had long known that the other party was an extremely shameless man, so nothing he said could affect her.
