After exchanging beast mates, those crazy S-rank beasts are all vying to be my pets.

Chapter 208 Sinister and Evil

Upon arriving at the palace, Tang Xiaoyan and Canglan clicked their tongues in amazement.

"I didn't expect Li Su to be so powerful. It's one thing to own a city, but he also has two such luxurious palaces."

"This isn't normal. He's a lord, after all. If he had nothing but a sea, wouldn't that be too low-class?"

Tang Xiaoyan thought Canglan was right.

The group entered the palace, where Bi Jingyan and Dr. Zhang were serving dishes.

Tang Xiaoyan nudged Cang Lan with her elbow, "See, I told you, we can't have everything."

"Having two palaces is already quite remarkable. Why do I get the feeling that you don't really like Li Su?"

Canglan sensed something was wrong. "Did he upset you too?"

I only knew that Tang Xiaoyan and Bao Zeming were at odds, but I didn't expect that she was also at odds with Li Su.

Tang Xiaoyan glanced at Li Su out of the corner of her eye. "You don't know about his superpower, do you? As long as you make eye contact with him, he can hypnotize you and even enter your dreams. Don't you think that superpower is pretty weird?"

Canglan shook his head and raised a question.

"Isn't Lu Mian's ability similar to this? I see you get along quite well with him, and you even seem to like him quite a bit."

Canglan concluded, "Is it possible that the abnormal thing isn't the superpower, but you?"

"You don't understand." Seeing that Tang Xiaoyan wasn't on her side, Tang Xiaoyan gave up trying to explain.

Once the food was served, Tang Xiaoyan was completely won over, eating the seafood one bite at a time without making a sound.

"Lord Li, does this count as eating your people?" Tang Xiaoyan asked without thinking, her words tumbling out as she ate with gusto.

Li Su was not surprised at all by what Tang Xiaoyan could say.

"Yes, before you arrived, the palace's Azure Dragon Guards and Abalone Butler all jumped into the pot on their own initiative, which is why there are no guards or servants in the palace."

It was clear that Li Su had overheard their discussion.

Aside from Bai Mingchen and the others who remained calm as they ate, Cang Lan and Tang Xiaoyan's beast-hunters stopped eating, looking down at the food in their hands with serious expressions.

Bi Jingyan couldn't stand it anymore. "Don't overthink it. These aren't beastmen; they're just normal edible seafood."

What should have been a pleasant dinner party turned into a nerve-wracking affair.

Sang Tian pursed her lips, suppressing a laugh. She hadn't expected anyone to actually take it seriously. "Eat up, he was just bluffing."

After receiving confirmation from the two, Tang Xiaoyan leaned towards Cang Lan beside her, "Now you know why I hate him, right? He's full of bad intentions, at least Bao Zemin is obviously bad."

Canglan swallowed the food stuck in her throat and blinked in agreement.

After dinner, Sang Tian asked people to choose a room, saying they would stay in Milu for the night.

The two were initially reluctant, but when they thought about troubling Li Su, they quickly nodded in agreement and went upstairs to choose their respective rooms.

—

Half a month later, the concentration of toxic substances carried in the toxic fog gradually decreased, and fewer and fewer people on the mainland wore gas masks.

After a month and a half, the natural disaster was finally overcome.

Sang Tian plans to reorganize the plantation. This time, both residences can be used for planting, but the soil needs to be purified again, which is a big project and requires further recruitment.

One day, Tang Xiaoyan rushed to Sang Tian's office and said quickly, "Hu Qingqing came to the door and said she wanted to apologize to you. Her attitude seems to have changed a lot. Do you want to see her?"

"Okay, have someone invite her up. I'll go make some tea for her."

Sang Tian took the initiative to make tea. Hu Qingqing came not alone this time, but also brought Shen Jinxi. The two of them had been looking at Sang Tian's office since they entered, their eyes filled with undisguised envy.

After being kicked out by Sang Tian last time, although I had a place to stay, I had nowhere to discuss things. In short, I lacked a place to talk.

They always had to squeeze into one room. Among the twenty-six people, only Shen Jinxi's room was the largest.

Each time, a dozen or twenty people would squeeze into the living room, which was clearly not enough. Moreover, many of the things we brought could not be used because there was no equipment to support them.

After a period of stalemate, Hu Qingqing decided not to be an enemy of Sang Tian and lowered her head in disappointment.

"We are here today to apologize. We were indeed a bit harsh with you and your people the last few times. We hope you can accept our apology."

Hu Qingqing took the initiative to speak.

Sang Tian gestured for the two to sit down. "Please sit down. I can accept your apology, but what does it mean that the other person came along too?"

Hu Qingqing glanced at Shen Jinxi.

"Jinxi is here to apologize to you. She said there was some misunderstanding between you as well."

Sang Tian raised her eyebrows, as if she had heard something terrible, and her voice rose accordingly.

She laughed sarcastically a few times, "Shen Jinxi, others may not know the grudge between us, but don't you know it yourself?"

I thought I had made my meaning clear enough, but who would have thought that I was just pretending to be asleep when I wasn't?

"I have indeed done a lot of things that have wronged you in the past, but we can be considered as allies now. I hope you can put aside your hatred for me for the time being and focus on the important matters before discussing personal matters."

Shen Jinxi practically squeezed these words out from her back teeth.

Sang Tian laughed angrily, "You disappeared for months and learned nothing, but your skin has gotten thicker and thicker. How dare you say such a thing?"

"Sang Tian, ​​we are here to sincerely apologize to you."

Sang Tian raised her hand to interrupt Hu Qingqing, who was about to continue speaking, "Wait a minute, I think you don't know about the grudge between me and Shen Jinxi. To be fair, you should read my things first."

She opened the screen and used the cloud projection function to project a beam of light onto the screen.

The first video is of Shen Jinxi and He Zi working together to destroy Sang Tian's superpowers, followed by Shen Jinxi's beast husband framing her, and then deliberately delaying her time on Snowfall Island.

An hour had passed by the time I finished watching everything.

The office was very quiet for that hour, and everyone was in a different mood.

Hu Qingqing was furious because Shen Jinxi had obscured the previous conflict between her and Sang Tian.

Shen Jinxi felt guilty, not expecting Sang Tian to reveal it so directly, completely leaving her no way out.

Sang Tian remained calm, thinking that these things were at least useful, and she was glad that she hadn't deleted them back then.

After reading it, Hu Qingqing was the first to speak up and question it.

"Shen Jinxi, is this all the misunderstanding you're talking about?!"

Upon hearing this angry question, Sang Tian thought to herself, "Hu Qingqing can still be saved; we can cooperate."

At least they can distinguish right from wrong. If everyone is biased towards Shen Jinxi, then there is absolutely no possibility of cooperation.

Shen Jinxi stammered, wanting to explain, but no words came out.

"Sang Tian, ​​do you really have to drive me to my death? Don't forget, if it weren't for me, the mark on your body wouldn't have been removed."

"Oh, and then what? What are you trying to say? You did such a small thing, and you expect me to forget everything that happened before?"
