The evil female is weak and the males of the whole continent are out of control and fall.

Chapter 786 Going to see him alone
The superhuman who delivered the message turned pale from the sudden, terrifying aura and involuntarily took a half-step back.
But she still forced herself to speak, repeating what she had been instructed to say: "Our leader said that if you want the energy stone, you have to follow our rules. No one but her is allowed to go in."
He paused, looking at the men in front of him with their cold eyes, as if they were about to burst into violence at any moment, and then added with courage: "The leader also said that if you try to rob us by force, he can guarantee that you will end up with nothing and nothing at all."
These words ignited the fury of the males. Yan Lie's eyes were blazing with rage, and the chieftain's hands were already trembling with impatience...
"We need some time to discuss this," Bai Wanwan's clear yet steady voice came from behind them.
She reached out and gently patted the backs of Chief Rong and Ember Shadow, who were blocking the way at the front.
Her voice was like a clear spring, slightly extinguishing the impending fury of the males.
They looked back at her, their eyes filled with worry and disapproval.
Bai Wanwan shook her head slightly at them, indicating that they should be patient. Then she looked at the superhuman who had delivered the message again and repeated, "Wait a moment."
The other party seemed relieved, nodded quickly, and put on that formulaic smile again: "We'll wait for you over there. Call us anytime once you've discussed it."
After saying that, he tactfully led his companion away a distance, turned his back, and made a gesture of not disturbing them.
Bai Wanwan was immediately surrounded by her beastmen.
Bai Wanwan lowered her voice, "I've thought about it, and I think I'll go in with them first to see what's going on."
"No way!" Yan Lie was the first to object, his eyes wide with worry. "Wanwan, who knows what's going on inside? That leader specifically asked you to go in alone; he definitely doesn't have good intentions! He might be trying to harm you!"
He held her wrist tightly and wouldn't let go.
"Yan Lie is right." Yin Ze nodded, his cold face covered with frost, his sharp gaze sweeping over the patrolmen who seemed relaxed but whose muscles were actually tense not far away.
"These superhumans are no match for us. If they insist on forcing you to go in alone, we'll just rob them! We'll control these people outside first, then rush in to find that so-called leader and force him to hand over the energy stones!"
His suggestion was simple and direct, reflecting the typical problem-solving style of powerful beings in the beast world.
Bai Wanwan had considered this method before.
Given the strength of her beastmen, it's not impossible for them to forcefully break through this place and capture the leader.
But... just like the beast world, the upper limit of superpowered individuals is unclear, and there are even many bizarre superpowers.
The energy stones cannot malfunction, and neither can the beastmen!
"We can't just take it by force." Her voice wasn't loud, but it was unusually firm. "We don't know exactly where the energy stone is hidden, nor are we sure if the leader has any backup plans. What if he's desperate and destroys the energy stone?"
She looked at the males surrounding her, her eyes filled with their familiar stubbornness, and even more so with a deep anxiety: "We've been in this world for almost a month. This is the first time we've so clearly found a clue to the energy stone. Jin Shen... how much longer can he hold on? I can't afford the consequences of making a mistake."
Chief Rong and Ember Shadow did not speak immediately, but their furrowed brows and deep worry in their eyes clearly expressed their disapproval.
Sending their partner into a completely uncontrollable and dangerous situation alone crosses their psychological bottom line.
Sensing their silence and opposition, Bai Wanwan took a deep breath, her tone softening but becoming even more resolute: "I know you're worried about me. But you must also believe in me."
“I have weapons to kill them, and many other tools. If something unexpected happens, I am fully capable of protecting myself, at least enough to hold out until you come to rescue me.”
She paused, her gaze sweeping over every handsome face filled with disapproval, and proposed a compromise: "How about this, I'll go in with them first. You all keep an eye on your watches, ten minutes is the limit. If I haven't come out after ten minutes... then you can do whatever you want."
She handed the watch to Jinying, who possessed Fu Jinshen's memories and knew how to keep time. This time limit gave her time to negotiate and observe, provided the beastmen with a limit to their tolerance, and, more importantly, demonstrated that she was not acting unilaterally but was willing to entrust them with the final guarantee.
The males exchanged glances, and the air was thick with struggle and deliberation.
Finally, Chief Rong gave Bai Wanwan a deep look, his eyes filled with complex emotions, including helplessness, worry, and the weight of eventual compromise.
He nodded almost imperceptibly, letting out a suppressed "Be careful," a permission that was practically squeezed out between his teeth.
Jin Ying took the watch, his eyes fixed on her: "Just ten minutes."
His voice was low, understanding that Wanwan was taking this risk for Fu Jinshen, but they could only hold out for ten minutes at most!
Yan Lie wanted to say something, but Xin Feng gently pressed down on his arm.
Xin Feng nodded to Bai Wanwan, his eyes gentle, "Wanwan, safety first. In critical moments, protect yourself and wait for us."
"it is good."
Bai Wanwan felt a slight sense of relief, but the sense of responsibility and urgency on her shoulders grew even heavier.
Without further hesitation, she walked towards the messenger waiting not far away, her steps steady and her back straight.
"Have you reached an agreement?" The leader of the superhumans turned around, a fawning smile on his face.
Bai Wanwan met his gaze and said clearly, "Let's go, I'll go in with you alone."
The heavy iron gate opened, then slowly closed behind Bai Wanwan.
Bai Wanwan followed the people in front of her into the dimly lit and empty corridor.
Her footsteps echoed clearly, but her heartbeat was steadyer than her steps.
My palms were slightly sweaty, not from fear, but from intense, focused vigilance.
She anticipated many possibilities: difficult negotiations, harsh conditions, or even a sudden reversal of the agreement.
For the sake of her beast husbands, she also had to ensure her own safety.
So during the journey, she had already mentally reviewed all the possible scenarios and rehearsed how she could fight back to ensure her safety.
Suddenly, the superhuman leading the way stopped in front of a heavy wooden door and respectfully stepped aside: "The leader is waiting for you inside."
After saying that, he left silently.
Bai Wanwan took a light breath and pushed the door open to enter.
The room was simpler and even somewhat empty than she had imagined.
A heavy wooden table, a few chairs, a simple bookshelf—that's all.
The closed windows made the room dimly lit, and it took Bai Wanwan a while to make out the man's blurry outline.
He was hidden in the shadows, yet exuded a quiet and powerful presence.
