236 Bad Debts That Can’t Be Settled
Although the first battle was started by humans, there were already bad scores that could not be calculated. It was impossible to find out who was right and who was wrong.
The originally excited demon beasts gradually calmed down. Although they were blinded by hatred, it didn’t mean that they were stupid.
Even if their demonic beast army was countless and could mobilize the entire world, there were also many humans of powerful figures and super experts.
At that time, the demonic beasts would also suffer heavy casualties.
Seeing that some of the rational demonic beasts had finally wavered and their expressions were no longer so hateful, Ye Xuan continued, “I know what you did before was just to survive. I apologize on behalf of those in Changping.”
If Ye Xuan had tried to exonerate the human race from the start, the demonic beasts wouldn’t have believed him. They would have thought that he was a despicable villain.
However, now that he had laid everything out and distinguished the interests and benefits. Moreover, from the perspective of the demon beasts, these great demons could not say anything to criticize him.
Even if he was a human, any demonic beast with intelligence would know that Ye Xuan’s words made sense.
“Then tell me what you can do!”
“It’s very simple. We’ll sign a treaty to divide our territories. The demonic beasts and humans will each occupy their territory, and we’ll each mind our business.”
This was Ye Xuan’s idea. The people of Changping wanted to mine the spirit mine, but the demonic beasts also had to survive. Because of the over-mining in Changping, the land’s environment had deteriorated. These demonic beasts couldn’t take it anymore, so they attacked in groups.
It was fine as long as the root of the problem was solved.
“You make it sound so simple. How can it be so easy? We don’t trust those despicable humans at all.”
“Yes. Those humans are full of lies. Who knows if they will tear up the treaty? Besides, isn’t betraying one’s faith something they often do? We don’t dare to take such a big risk.”
It was understandable for the demonic beasts to have concerns. If it was so easy to deal with, it would not have caused such a great turmoil.
“If you all trust me, I can step in. Even if you don’t trust me, you should at least trust your lord’s judgment.”
Qian Yuan sat in the main seat and didn’t speak. This was what it had agreed with Ye Xuan before.
Ye Xuan didn’t hide his intentions for coming here, nor did he try to force Qian Yuan to order these beasts not to harm the people of Changping. This made Qian Yuan feel surprised and impressed.
He indicated that he had a way to convince the demonic beasts and that Qian Yuan would only need to help at the critical moment.
Looking at the contemplative expressions of many great demons below the stage as if they were hesitating and wavering, considering the feasibility of this matter, Qian Yuan knew that Ye Xuan had succeeded.
“I think what Brother Ye said is very reasonable. Using killing to stop killing is simply endless. Instead, it will cause both of us to suffer losses. Furthermore, I believe in his character. He is not only my benefactor, but also the great benefactor of Changping. If he can come forward and mediate, we can live in peace with the human race. Isn’t that a good thing for us?”
Qian Yuan’s words had completely shaken some of the demonic beasts, and the words it said after that hit the bottom of their hearts.
“The demonic beasts should focus on cultivation so that you can be reborn as soon as possible. If the living environment is guaranteed, and these humans no longer exploit the spirit mines wantonly, affecting and disturbing our lives, we can also let go of our hatred.”
None of the disciples at the mine vein survived, and they had attacked many humans. The revenge they wanted to take was almost done.
After all, cultivation was the most important thing to them. Unless they were possessed by the devil, or else they were not great demons who were born to kill. Who would like this kind of life of fighting and killing?
If they continued to fight with the human cultivators, it would affect their cultivation and level.
“But what if the human race goes back on their word? You should know that humans are the most untrustworthy.”
Most of the demonic beasts had already been convinced, but a few of them were still a little worried and suspicious. They had a deep blood feud with humans to the point where they would not rest until one of them was dead.
It was true that as Ye Xuan said, there were many humans who died at the hands of demonic beasts, and they had taken their revenge. If this continued, it would be detrimental to their development.
“I can guarantee for everyone. Besides, Qian Yuan is still here. If the humans go against the agreement and tear up the treaty in the future, I will not interfere in this matter again.”
“You’re only saying that because you’re standing on the side of the human race,” a demon beast couldn’t help but say.
“Of course,” Ye Xuan said confidently, not showing the slightest bit of guilt. “Even though I’m a human and inevitably have selfish motives, it’s truly beneficial for you demonic beasts in the long run. Don’t tell me that you’re no longer cultivating and only know how to hunt down humans for revenge.”
This sentence made all the demonic beasts speechless again.
Ye Xuan’s words were so firm that people couldn’t help but believe him.
“Maybe we can try. Even if we don’t believe him, we should at least believe in Lord Flood Dragon’s judgment.”
“That’s right. Even if the humans have any tricks up their sleeves, they won’t dare to be presumptuous with Lord Flood Dragon.”
Although Qian Yuan didn’t say anything as it sat on the main seat, from its attitude just now and the fact that it didn’t stop Ye Xuan, it had already made a decision. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have let Ye Xuan say so much.
Not all of the demonic beasts were radical. There were still a few who preferred peace. They did not like to kill, but humans were too cunning. The other demonic beasts did not believe humans at all and disdained to deal with them.
Furthermore, it wasn’t that the people in Changping hadn’t thought of negotiating. It was just that the demonic beasts were brutal and violent, and their attitude towards humans wasn’t good. They were almost ready to kill anyone they saw, so there was no need to negotiate.
But now, there was Ye Xuan. Not only was he a benefactor to Changping, he was also Qian Yuan’s benefactor. In addition, Qian Yuan’s cultivation had improved quite a lot. All of this was also Ye Xuan’s credit.
With these two acting as the middleman, things that were impossible became possible.
“Since no one has any objections, why don’t we try this method?”
