Chapter 445: Chapter 393: The Conflict Between Two Clans

Translator: 549690339

Blue King seemed to notice Pei Xuanjing’s worry and reassured, “Don’t worry, Mr. Lei…”

He spoke of the agreement among the human race’s kings and lords that once one ascends to such a status, they are considered a pillar of humanity. Even if one has grievances, they cannot turn openly hostile, else they’ll face judgment from the united human kings and lords.

Therefore, even if Xuan King was a formidable power, he could not defy this rule.

Everything that happened today; he could only swallow it, regardless of how unsatisfied he was.

Pei Xuanjing was skeptical, but he had no choice but to nod. With so many powerhouses present, even if he ascended to kingship, he couldn’t face them all, especially with the Demon Race watching eagerly.

“Alright, with Mr. Lei’s breakthrough today, we shall prepare a banquet for you in the Boundary City to celebrate.” Blue King continued with a smile.

The other kings and lords also agreed jovially, especially those who carried grudges against Xuan King.

Xuan King looked sullen and silent, not uttering a word of objection.

“Humans, do you take the Demon Domain for a place where you can come and go as you please?” The Giant Eagle King raged.

These human race kings and lords were having a discussion as though they hadn’t even considered the demon kings present. This was simply absurd. If they let them leave like this, the demon kings would lose face.

Upon hearing this, Blue King’s smile vanished, and he turned to the Giant Eagle King, saying sternly, “And what would you have us do?!”

As the lord who defended the Boundary City, he was known for his sternness. He wouldn’t converse with these demon kings as gently as Pei Xuanjing would.

The Giant Eagle King, now in his human form, looked stern. As powerful as Blue King was, he was not a rival he could easily contend with.

“Naturally, there will be a price to pay!” The Wolf King stepped forward.

As one of the leading forces of the Demon Domain, the aura from the Wolf King almost matched that of Blue King.

“Wolf King, do you want to provoke a war between our races?” Blue King demanded in a frosty voice.

The Wolf King refused to back down, “Our Demon Race has never been afraid!”

The strong from both sides squared off, looking ready to fight at any second.

Next to them, the Fox King made a suggestion in a low voice to the Wolf King, “Wolf King, let’s have the inter-racial battle a hundred years ahead of schedule and have the newly ascended man participate. As long as he’s killed, it doesn’t matter even if we lose this time round.”

For the many demon kings, their biggest fear wasn’t anything else, but Pei Xuanjing who just devoured the Jiaolong Blood Pill.

Because rumors had it that once one ingested the Jiaolong Blood Pill, there’s a chance to break through the shackles of the Emperor Realm. If the human race had an Emperor Realm powerhouse, the Demon Race would be in danger!

“The inter-racial battle has been moved forward, he must participate.” The Wolf King pointed at Pei Xuanjing, with an authoritative voice.

“What if I refuse?” The Blue King queried coldly, refusing to be threatened.

The inter-racial battle was a previously agreed upon decision between the human and demon races. Since neither side could best the other, they decided to pit their strong against one other every hundred years. This was a way to settle the grudges accumulated over the past century, and to decide who would dominate the next century.

But such a battle typically involved experienced kings and lords. Pei Xuanjing had just broken through, so he wasn’t necessary for this battle. He could have a chance to participate in the next century.

To allow a newly ascended king to fight against demon kings was akin to sending him to his death, something Blue King couldn’t accept.

“If you refuse, then we’ll provoke a full-scale war between our two races today with no end until one side is completely annihilated!” threatened the Wolf King.

Pei Xuanjing poses a substantial threat to them. Even if there was a slight chance of him potentially breaking through to the Emperor Realm, it would be a massive threat to the Demon Race, hence their urgency to neutralize him.

“Blue King, agree with him, I can participate.” Pei Xuanjing spoke up.

After learning about the inter-racial battle from the other kings and lords, he decisively urged Blue King to agree.

Everyone might think of him as a newly ascended king, but they didn’t know that he had already reached the equivalent of a mid-term king in the Way of Essence Refinement’s Spirit Realm. And if you added his ample Primordial Qi from the Path of Qi Refinement and his secret weapon, the Yin Spirit, he didn’t fear even the top-tier demon kings.

“Hmm?” Blue King looked at Pei Xuanjing: “You better be sure…”

Unless necessary, he didn’t want to risk it, because every king was a pillar of the human race.

Pei Xuanjing nodded and said, “It’s fine, I’m confident!”

[At twenty years old: You broke through the realm of kings and lords, agreeing to participate in the upcoming inter-racial battle between humans and demons.]

“Good!” Blue King no longer argued, after all, unless necessary, he did not want to provoke a full-scale war between humans and demons. That would be harmful to both races.

Both sides settled on their agreement and departed separately.

The Demon Race wasn’t afraid of the humans not keeping their promise because if the humans broke the pact, the demon army would undoubtedly launch an attack.

Pei Xuanjing returned to the Boundary City with Blue King and the others, first holding a celebration feast for Pei Xuanjing’s ascendancy to kingship, then dealing with the matter of Xuan King’s daughter and the human sacrifice.

Given the clear evidence in this matter, even Xuan King couldn’t say much. He had to take responsibility for it.

The final outcome was that the elder and the daughter involved in the sacrificial rites were executed. As the instigator behind the scene, Xuan King had to bear some responsibility for this incident. He needed to participate in the upcoming large-scale battle between the humans and the demons in order to atone for this crime with his blood.

Once this decision was made, Pei Xuanjing believed in the sincerity of Blue King’s invitation.

He felt the result was acceptable.

Because participating in the inter-racial battle was no simple matter. No one involved in it could guarantee a survival.

In the following days, Pei Xuanjing went into closed-door cultivation, waiting for the battle to approach.

There were originally still ten years to go before the inter-racial battle occurred. Although it was moved forward, there was still some preparation time required. Therefore, Pei Xuanjing had half a year to prepare.

At Pei Xuanjing’s level, even without personal accomplishments, he had access to a wide range of skills in the Town Guard Mansion simply based on his raw strength. So, Pei Xuanjing certainly wouldn’t miss this opportunity.

After viewing many of the skills of this world, Pei Xuanjing became more confident about the Way of Cultivation in this realm.

Although he was also on the Way of Essence Refinement, the methods of body cultivation of the powerhouses in this world were quite different from his.

Pei Xuanjing’s body cultivation initiated by building a foundation with the Dragon Elephant Art, leveraging True Qi for sculpting his physical body and enhancing his sinews and bones.

Upon reaching the peak of the Mortal Realm, he further spiritualized his body, going through three transitions of rebirth to effectively enter the Spirit Realm. The path beyond the Spirit Realm involved opening and refining his own body’s hidden treasures to strengthen his physique, making it perfect and flawless.

However, when the warriors of this world enhanced their physique, they exhibited greater emphasis on one aspect: bloodline.
