Just as he was about to ask something, a respectful voice from the Sheep Clan suddenly rang out from outside the door. This made Yu Huan startled for a moment. He glanced at the prophet candidate who was said to be able to 'predict the future' and immediately said:
"Well, I'll go right away!"
Having said this, after confirming that there was no sound outside, he immediately looked at Hu Churou again. Before he could say anything, the other party had already taken the initiative to speak:
"I will be waiting for your return here. You should know... I will not lie to you!"
The tone of her voice was as if she had seen through Yu Huan and could tell whether she was lying or not. This made Yu Huan curl her lips in surprise, then nodded without saying anything more.
As for the source of the other party's so-called ability to "predict the future", Yu Huan had obviously guessed it long ago. Now looking at the other party's attitude, although the specific details are still unknown, Yu Huan does have some clues in his mind. He has vaguely guessed something, but he plans to talk about it later.
Now... let's deal with the current matters first!
Yu Huan obviously knew why the Sheep Clan Chief suddenly "summoned" him. After all, he was a messenger of God, and as the Sheep Clan's "benefactor", if the other party wanted to find him, he would have come in person a long time ago. How could he ask him to come over?
Based on this obvious point, the person who "invited" him was not the clan leader, but someone else who made it impossible for the other party to neglect him or even resist him!
And based on what Yu Huan knew and predicted, there was only one person like that, and that was...
"One of the candidates for the Saintess... Her Highness Fox Butterfly?"
In the not-so-big tent, the two leopard elite guards were obviously more powerful than the leopard elite team led by Xia Baichuan before, and the difference was almost like heaven and earth.
A fox girl in a plain white dress sat quietly on the main seat, while the sheep chief stood beside her, almost trembling, waiting. Although he was of his own race, he looked like a servant.
After seeing Yu Huan's arrival, he seemed to have found his backbone and relaxed instantly. It was obvious that under the sudden visit of the saint and the huge magical pressure emitted by the two leopard men in front of him at all times, the sheep tribe leader had already been overwhelmed.
"Yuhuan 'Divine Envoy', we meet again!"
The title of "God's Messenger" was clearly spoken with respect and admiration by the Sheep Clan Chief. However, when it came out of the mouth of this saint at this moment, it felt as if a lie had been exposed... Obviously, as a saint, she did not think that Yu Huan was a God's Messenger. After all, Yu Huan did not really show his divinity. At first glance, he was just an ordinary person.
However, before coming, Hudie obviously understood that the reason why Yuhuan was called a messenger of God was entirely because she destroyed the gray wolf tribe who attempted to attack the sheep tribe camp like a divine soldier from heaven, and was then revered as a messenger of God.
Of course, this kind of investigation is more or less distorted. After all, the Sheep Clan had personally felt the strong pressure of the Beast God coming from Sang.
Of course, as to why this point was not mentioned...it is obviously unknown!
"Well, we meet again, Your Highness the Saint!"
As soon as she walked in, she revealed the other party's identity without beating around the bush. Her attitude clearly indicated that the 'Saint' in front of her was straightforward. The Saint obviously saw this and said decisively:
"The Prophet's Trial is about to begin. Since you are a 'divine messenger', I wonder if I, as a saint, am qualified to cooperate with you and become the prophet below the god above you?"
The words came out of her mouth half in a joke, but with nine and a half parts of undisguised ambition. From her previous series of actions to gather various races, it was obvious that Fox Butterfly had not hidden her ambition. She directly wanted to pass the prophet trial, and then become a prophet and become the most noble existence of the orcs.
As for Yu Huan's solicitation, the implied benefits are also very obvious: if you cooperate with me, then you can become a real "God's Messenger". If it were someone else, this would definitely be the best transaction condition.
After all, for the orcs in the Great Forest who belong to the category of faith, the status of the messenger of God is undoubtedly no different from that of a god. Even those powerful orcs must bow down to him when facing him.
"Oh my~~ That's really... an offer that no one can refuse!"
Despite the smiling words, Yu Huan did not give his answer immediately. Instead, he silently weighed the girl in front of him who was in a superior position and the other 'former saint' who seemed to be hiding in his bedroom. In comparison... well, there was no need to compare at all!
"Why do I feel like that guy seems to be more to my taste!"
He thought so for no reason in his heart. Of course, this was not because the other party expressed his loyalty to Yu Huan as soon as he opened his mouth, and the saint in front of him was so arrogant, but compared to the one in front of him, the aura of the other party... Yu Huan obviously liked it more!
That is the breath of sincerity and honesty!
But this kind of aura... was not present on the girl in front of him, because the only color Yu Huan could see on her was... the dark purple full of ambition and the pink and blood-red luster hidden within it.
"Sorry, I just came to the Great Forest to do some business and will leave after it's done, so I have no intention of getting involved in the orc conflict!"
No way, I just simply don’t want to stand on your side!
She silently took up the unfinished words in her heart, and Yu Huan's words, which were obviously a rejection, obviously caused dissatisfaction in the first time. Just when the saint frowned, the two leopard men behind her had already stepped forward.
"Om~~~"
The huge torrent of magic power instantly turned into pressure and surged towards Yu Huan. It seemed that he was planning to... show his power?
At that moment, Yu Huan couldn't help but reveal a faint smile on the corner of her mouth. When it comes to magic... she has never been afraid of anyone!
and so……
"Boom~~~~"
"?!"
Like a giant hammer falling from the sky, the two overwhelming magical pressures instantly dissipated. The immense impact was accompanied by two overlapping 'bangs'. Before Fox Butterfly could even react, the two powerful Leopards were directly...knelt on the ground?!
At that moment, horrified eyes seemed to flash simultaneously from the eyes of Fox Butterfly, the powerful leopard tribe, and the sheep tribe leader who didn't understand what was happening. They all looked at Yu Huan, who was standing there with a smile like an innocent girl. In an instant, only one thought remained in their minds, and that was...
What just... happened?
Well, here's another idea:
Who... is she?!
Of course, this refers to the thoughts of Fox Butterfly and the two powerful leopard tribe members. As for the Sheep Tribe leader, after the initial shock at this moment, the only thought in his mind was: He is worthy of being a messenger of God.
After all, he's a divine messenger, so isn't it natural for him to possess such powerful magical powers?!
118. Guess
The sudden surge of magic power obviously made even Fox Butterfly show a look of horror. The idea that Yu Huan was just a 'strong man who could be won over' was instantly shattered at this moment, especially when she felt the vast ocean-like aura from the other party. There was no doubt that even she, the saint, could not help but swallow her saliva at this moment.
But at this moment, the surrounding momentum suddenly disappeared without any warning. At the same time, Yu Huan said with a smile on his face:
"Ah~~ Sorry, sorry, it was an instinctive reaction. I couldn't help it for a moment. I'm so sorry!"
As if what just happened was just a misunderstanding, such a 'humble' attitude actually made Hudie's face look a little better... It seems that the other party is still a little afraid of her, the saint, so...
"But Your Excellency, I'm sorry, I definitely cannot accept your invitation. After all, we... have different paths!"
Isn't it different~~
The other party’s current target is still the unique and prestigious position in this big forest, but what about Yu Huan?
The Lord of Tianyu City, the Master of the System, the Successor of the Goddess, the Demon King, the Hero, the Lord of the Planes, the Mastermind of the Mechanical Planet, the Legendary Goddess of Time of the Orcs... and so on and so forth. Well, to be honest, there are so many titles that I'm too lazy to count them all. In this case, you ask her to be a vanguard soldier for a native Orc in a big forest in a corner of the Demon Realm?
Please, even novels wouldn’t dare to write like this!
Therefore, Yu Huan's refusal was so justified, but this justified refusal undoubtedly made Hu Die's face change, and finally he could only sigh helplessly. He had no way to deal with the mysterious girl in front of him who almost made him unable to bear it with just the burst of magic power.
Of course, since she wanted to win over the other party, giving up like this was obviously not her style. Therefore, she first sent away the Sheep Clan Chief who was already overwhelmed, and also sent away the two Leopard Clan members who followed her and glared at Yu Huan. Suddenly, only Yu Huan and Hu Die were left in the entire tent.
As this fox butterfly obviously had something to say, Yu Huan was very casual and had no intention of refusing. Instead, he waited with interest for the other party to come up with a reason to "convince himself".
Fox Butterfly did not disappoint her. After everyone left, she was silent for a while before speaking:
"Although you may already know me, I would like to introduce myself again. I am Fox Butterfly, the current leader of the Fox Clan and one of the candidates for the Saintess!"
After introducing himself with some seriousness, Yu Huan responded with two casual words:
"Yu Huan!"
The calm self-introduction obviously made Hudie frown slightly again. She could feel that Yuhuan was perfunctory to her, which made her feel a little dissatisfied as she had never experienced such treatment before. However, she was able to become a saint not only because of her suddenly awakened supernatural talent, but she had obviously not been the leader of the fox tribe for so many years in vain, so she did not show it at this time.
"Well then, Miss Yuhuan... I'll call you that. You... shouldn't be an orc, right?"
When no one was around, Hudie immediately told Yuhuan the "secret" of Yuhuan in a mysterious tone, which was exactly what she had accidentally discovered just now when she used her "talent".
A human with such powerful magic power has appeared among the Orcs. Obviously, if this is known by those powerful tribes, it will definitely not be a trivial matter. It is even very likely to eventually develop into a major event for the entire Orcs.
Therefore, when Hudie said this, the meaning he wanted to express was obviously very clear. However, Yuhuan still seemed to have not understood it from beginning to end. He just glanced at him and said casually:
"So... then what?"
The nonchalant tone did not elicit any reaction from Hudie this time. Instead, her expression gradually calmed down as she began to analyze the various situations that had occurred since she met Yuhuan. Finally, she seemed to have come to some vague conclusions:
"Miss Yuhuan, you came to the Demon Realm this time for your own purpose. Based on your previous actions, your goal should be... those orc slaves? Or rather, the slaves of a particular orc race?"
The light words were three parts truth and seven parts guess, but what they said made Yu Huan raise his eyebrows slightly. He didn't say much, but his eyes were already looking at the saint in front of him.
Seeing this, Fox Butterfly, who clearly had an idea in mind, did not hesitate but continued to analyze:
"Then there's the Sheep Tribe. I've investigated and found that the reason you or your 'teams' wiped out the Gray Wolf Tribe wasn't to save the Sheep Tribe, but to save another group of orcs who happened to be taking refuge among the Sheep Tribe. That group seemed to be... the Cat Tribe, right?"
Combining the information she had collected, Hu Die said this and deduced the purpose of Yu Huan's coming to the Demon Realm. Yu Huan just blinked in surprise but neither admitted nor denied it. However, this alone was enough for Hu Die to confirm her guess.
Now that the other party's purpose is clear, it will undoubtedly be easier to negotiate conditions. In the words just now, Fox Butterfly vaguely revealed Yu Huan's identity as a human being with such huge magical power. However, if the big tribes among the orcs knew about it, he would definitely have a very serious end.
And from these words, there is a clear implication that 'she can provide shelter'.
Although Yu Huan didn't seem to say anything about this, Hu Die felt that the other party was obviously concerned.
As for the so-called carrot and stick, since the secret "threat" has been thrown out, if there are no conditions that can attract the other party or make the other party unable to refuse, the result is likely to not only fail to win over the other party, but may even cause the other party to turn against oneself, which is obviously not the result that Hudie wants to see.
Therefore, after all the previous preparations were made and after confirming Yu Huan's 'purpose', Hu Die spoke without hesitation:
"When I watched Miss Yuhuan's battle earlier, I was wondering, the power you used at that time seemed... not just simple transformation magic, right?"
Although it was somewhat expected that Yu Huan possessed such enormous magic power, Hu Die had discovered long before when Yu Huan was fighting that even the magic wand he used later... rather than being a magic wand, it looked more like the alchemical products she had seen in the Demon Realm.
As a saint, she naturally knew something about the time outside the Demon Realm, so she was very clear that above this thing called "alchemical product", there was an even more powerful "alchemical product" that could even fight against magic.
That is called the power of technology!
Hudie guessed that Yuhuan's armor and magic wand might be the so-called "technological" power. She had also paid more or less attention to the existence of the Science and Technology City and Tianta City outside over the years, and some of the unknown "experiments" therein naturally could not escape the eyes of the Saint.
And now, after connecting all of this, it is natural that in the eyes of the Saint Fox Butterfly, Yu Huan's purpose in coming to the Demon Realm is to "capture" the slaves of the cat clan and bring them out of the Demon Realm to his own technology city.
As for what they wanted to do by taking these cats away... as an orc, whether as experimental subjects or slaves, this was undoubtedly disgusting to her. However, at this moment, she could only suppress this disgust and use this to negotiate terms with the other party.
Those who achieve great things do not care about trivial matters. Hu Die, who knows her ambitions and ideas very clearly, is obviously very open-minded in this regard. Therefore, after consciously seeing through all the current situation, she faced Yu Huan without any beating around the bush and directly stated her purpose or... transaction?
"Just the day before yesterday, the cat tribe was officially divided under my witness, and the cat tribe leader has been confirmed dead. So, cat tribe, if you want it... I can give it to you, but I have only one condition!"
It was self-evident what that meant. After revealing the information about the cat clan, it was obvious that Yu Huan's eyebrows seemed to twitch slightly. Hu Die immediately saw the other party's intention at this moment. At that moment, he was undoubtedly surprised and was about to press on with his victory, but Yu Huan suddenly said:
"Since we've already split up, I'd like to ask Her Highness the Saint, when you say you're giving me the 'cat tribe'... which branch of the cat tribe are you referring to?"
It seems that Xia Yu and the others have accomplished the task. They have avenged their hatred and taken away those cat people who were willing to go to Tianyu City. Now, Tianyu City must have arranged everything!
While thinking this in her heart, she was still communicating with the Saint in front of her. Obviously, Hudie did not expect Yuhuan to suddenly ask this question. She was slightly stunned and asked back:
"What's the difference?"
After all, they are all cats. If the other party only wants cats...it shouldn't make any difference which side they are on, right?
After all, Xia Yu was someone she had tried to win over before, and he was also connected to Tianyu City. Therefore, Hudie obviously didn't want to touch him if possible. But if this was Yu Huan's condition, then...
While he was weighing the pros and cons in his mind, Yu Huan shook his head and said casually:
"It doesn't make any difference, I'm just asking!"
It was really just a casual question. Anyway, I had no intention of agreeing to this deal. After all, one of the two cat tribes that split apart already belonged to me, while the other was an existence that Tianyu City would never accept. Therefore, there was no need to make a choice!
119. Win over
It is naturally not something that can be done in a day or two to win over a strong man like Yu Huan. Hu Die, who is well aware of this, obviously has his own persistence.
Although she was rejected without hesitation by Yu Huan after the first day's invitation, it was obvious that Hu Die only regarded it as her bargaining chip was not enough. After all, she was still just a "saint" who was one of the successors of the prophet, not a real prophet, so it was not surprising that she would be suspected.
Knowing this, when discussing the matter of the cat tribe with Yu Huan afterwards, Hu Die could clearly feel Yu Huan's interest in this topic. But for some reason, when she proposed to give her the cat tribe that was left in the forest after the tribes were divided, the other party refused without even thinking.
Then when she said that she wanted to give the cat tribe that was separated from Yu Huan... although Yu Huan did not directly refuse at that time, the strange expression on the other party's face after hearing her conditions undoubtedly made Hu Die confused.
But not directly refusing meant there was hope... Fox Butterfly, having determined this in his heart, seemed to have found a breakthrough. He temporarily stayed among the sheep tribe on the pretext of being a guest. Naturally, the sheep tribe leader would not refuse this, and not only that, he even expressed his warm welcome.
After all, with the Saint in charge, the sheep tribe obviously no longer has to worry about any blind carnivorous race coming to cause trouble.
Yu Huan naturally didn't say anything about this. The Great Forest was the territory of the orcs and the prophets. The Sheep Tribe leader didn't say anything, so she naturally had no objection.
He could clearly feel that the other party's target was himself, but Yu Huan obviously didn't care about it. He rejected the other party without hesitation at the beginning. It was only when he heard the other party talking about the cat tribe that he became a little interested. However, the result was that the other party mistakenly thought that this was his signal for cooperation again.
Yu Huan was obviously helpless against such brain power. Since the other party wanted to stay, then he could stay. She wouldn't agree anyway!
After all, Yu Huan came to the forest to deal with the cat tribe on the one hand, and on the other hand, he just wanted to meet the prophet and see whether the so-called "prophecy" of the next heir was really as he guessed.
And now it seems that the prophet at least didn't see it, but the fox butterfly that came to invite her... well, in short, Zai Yuhuan seemed to have failed. After all, even when she had restrained her spirit, the other party didn't discover even the slightest bit of her peculiarity or trigger her own ability.
After all, Oma Zi-O's power belongs to him. If the person infected by this power really has the ability of "foresight", then when he encounters his own origin, he will definitely have some sensation.
However, Fox Butterfly had no reaction to this, which could only mean that either Yu Huan had guessed wrong from the beginning, and the inheritance of the prophecy had nothing to do with him, or... the other party was affected too little, to the point where he could not feel it at all, which led to this situation.
Speculating, Yu Huan was more inclined to the latter. After all, before this, Yu Huan had just met the saint named Hu Churou. The other party "saw" his power at first sight and then swore allegiance directly.
Although Yu Huan felt that the other party's sudden loyalty was not normal, he had to admit that the other party's behavior made Yu Huan completely unable to feel any dislike for him. Instead, he admired the other party very much.
"Really? If I want to support someone, I might as well support this young lady named Hu Churou. At least if she really becomes a saint, with her 100% loyalty even though she hasn't been conquered yet, wouldn't this entire forest become mine~~~"
He spoke to Yu beside him in a completely joking tone, complaining in this way. These words, like a child's comparison, actually made Yu smile.
