Chapter 640: Chapter 371 Forced Contract_2

“What price must we pay to calm your offended rage?”

The Merfolk Queen asked directly. As soon as her words were spoken, several radiant divine lights, imbued with grandeur, descended from all directions of the vast ocean and turned into towering apparitions flanking her, forming a standoff with the Kun Group.

However, any one of them, each powerful enough to dominate and sweep across regions of the ocean, appeared somewhat weak in the face of this Ancient Clan that had been passed down since ancient times, even when gathered in unity.

Undoubtedly, this Heterogeneous Clan, consisting of multiple Human Immortals, is considered one of the powerful races even among the vast ocean.

If nothing goes wrong, they would inevitably rule as the predominant clan in this maritime region, and their dominance and control would continue as long as there is even one Human Immortal among them.

This will continue for thousands of generations, infinite and incessant, but all of this is under the premise that no powerful force intervenes. The current state of affairs is evidently in compliance with this.

“To appease their wrath, it is quite easy actually. But to calm my anger, not that simple!”

In the turbulent currents deep beneath the sea, a light voice arose. If not for the keen senses of the Human Immortals, this voice could easily have been overlooked.

The Merfolk Queen was contemplating what price she needs to pay to pacify this Kun Group, who had come for vengeance as their clan had been harmed by the stupidity of her own kind.

However, upon capturing this unique voice, she immediately turned in its direction.

Straight away, she identified a Da Kun that was not part of the host attacking the capital but instead, was hovering over the ocean. Above the Da Kun was a man, minuscule in comparison, calmly looking down at everything happening below.

Compared to the Da Kun beneath him, whose aura filled the universe and swept the vast maritime border, the man’s aura was far too insignificant to the point that he was ignored by the Merfolk Queen until he spoke.

“Who are you?”

Although the aura of this minuscule man was incredibly weak, so weak that she felt like she could almost crush him with just a glance, the Merfolk Queen did not underestimate him, instead offering him a serious demeanor.

Because, the Da Kun beneath the feet of this human, was the oldest, most powerful and largest one among this Kun Group.

The preponderance of information revealed by his position was rich and clear, even creatures massive in size and boasting such formidable physiques do not prefer anything else standing on their backs.

“Who am I? I am someone who was once preyed upon by you, Merfolk, regarded as a hunting target. But now, I want to see who is the hunter and who is the prey.”

Overlooking the Merfolk capital gradually descending into ruins, its spiritual light flickering and getting swallowed by darkness, Feng Qing’an felt a sense of regret at the destruction of this beautiful city, but it was necessary.

Having successfully led the Kun Group here, he couldn’t just make them swim around the Merfolk capital. There needed to be some sort of repercussion.

“Prey?!”

Upon hearing Feng Qing’an’s words, despite her past ordeals and her cultivation in both discipline and mentality that she prided on, the Merfolk Queen couldn’t help but harbor intense killing intent.

Nevertheless, this hostility was not directed towards the predicament at hand, nor the young man standing atop of the Da Kun for some unknown reason.

It was aimed at those arrogant and domineering co-species of her own race who had ridiculously invited such an adversary and thereby, a catastrophic disaster upon their own kind.

Should they survive this crisis, she would enforce a brutal solution to cleanse those who had recklessly provoked entities beyond their designated prey from her clan.

Compared to powerful enemies, these foolish kin must not be spared.

“Since you Merfolk regard me as prey, I have no choice but to prove that you’re not worthy of hunting me. I am highly sensitive to my own safety, if you want to destroy me first, then for my own safety, I must destroy you all first.”

Feng Qing’an’s tone was light, his gaze incessantly sizing up the Merfolk Queen.

The moment he gained the assistance of the Kun group, the situation had shifted. As long as the Merfolk didn’t have an excessively strong force, an Earth Immortal, then no matter how many Human Immortals they had, they were merely fish on his chopping board, ready for him to slaughter.

“I am willing to sincerely apologize in the name of the seventh generation Monarch of the Liluo Mermaid Clan for the offense my people have caused you!”

Even though she was the leader of a tribe and monarch of countless sea spirits, at this moment, she had to humble herself to apologize to a member of the Human race who was not yet of age.

“If a verbal apology was sufficient, then why would creatures in this world need to cultivate?”

A playful smile emerged on Feng Qing’an’s face, he certainly wouldn’t accept a mere verbal apology, what use did that have?

“I wonder what I should do to satisfy you and this Kun, so it will retreat?”

The intention of Feng Qing’an was very clear. Even if the Merfolk Queen was furious, she still had to suppress her rage.

The situation was stronger than the individual, not just in name. If she dared to act aggressively, the next moment, these Da Kuns would completely destroy her scattered Merfolk across the maritime borders, and they wouldn’t even need to make any particular effort.

It was simple, just by swimming past, the streams swirling around them would be enough to destroy everything. Ordinary Merfolk simply would not be able to resist, the unstoppable terrifying force.

“Actually, they are already satisfied, it’s just I who isn’t, so they will not retreat.”

Feng Qing’an spread out his palms. If it wasn’t for his involvement, even if the Merfolk had provoked the young Kun, and the young Kun brought its parents for revenge and destroyed the city, those guys would have gone back to their original habitats.

These Da Kun knew how to repay a blood debt, they don’t like to exterminate. After venting most of their anger, they would be fine.

Even Feng Qing’an couldn’t feel the resentment remaining in the heart of the small Kunxuan he had made a pact with. It had likely been drained away when it easily destroyed the city and slaughtered a great number of Merfolk.

“You’re not satisfied? What else are you not satisfied with? My city has already been destroyed to this extent.”

Hearing Feng Qing’an’s words, even the well-mannered Merfolk Queen could not help but erupt in anger.

“When you cut grass, you must remove the roots, or it will grow back in the spring breeze. I usually have lots of free time, and when people are idle, they tend to overthink.”

“When I think about it, I start to ponder what I should do if those who hold a grudge against me come to take their revenge.”

Feng Qing’an at this moment appeared leisurely and lazy. Even if due to the gaze of the Merfolk Queen, the others of the Merfolk and the Human Immortals also looked at him, he, already having a sufficient foundation, treated these gazes as nothing more than a breeze.

“I can swear in the name of the Monarch that none of the Merfolk will seek revenge against you!”

Under the premise of ensuring the continuation of her tribe, anything that isn’t related to survival can be discarded, even revenge.

“I don’t believe in other’s oaths. I only believe in my own pacts. If you want me to believe in your words, then make a pact with me!”

The fox’s tail revealed itself as Feng Qing’an showed his true colors.
