Chapter 260 Beast King’s Plan

“Beast King, Logan has set up a Destruction Array. If we want to move against them, the entire small world will also perish. I’ve investigated, the power of this array is no less than any ordinary Thunder Tribulation, it genuinely possesses such capability.”

After leaving, the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast immediately reported to the Beast King, which caused the Beast King’s brows to furrow. He had planned meticulously before, but Logan’s move had indeed tied his hands.

Could it really be that he should let Logan and others leave? If he turns to the Heavenly Saint Daoist, the threat to him will be even greater. But if he does not let them go, and the small world is truly destroyed, the Supreme Treasure of the Demon Beast clan will also be destroyed.

Stuck between a rock and a hard place, the Beast King hesitated for a moment: “First, keep Logan steady and make sure he does not activate the Destruction Array. Deceive the three of them into coming out, and then find a way to enter and break the array. We also have several cards up our sleeve, such as Lowen Shingo’s Daoist protector and those three thousand Transcendent Tier.”

“Alright, I’ll get on it.” Nodding, the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast returned to the small world and informed everyone about Beast King’s intentions. This made a smile creep onto Lowen Shingo’s and Bart Cloud’s faces – since words had been spoken, they estimated a safe departure from the mountain range.

Only Logan had a solemn expression. The Beast King had made this decision too easily. Barely five minutes had passed, and there was no hesitation, implying that there must be a plan behind it. But now, all they could do was keep moving forward. Perhaps Logan was overthinking all of this.

As the three of them left the small world, Beast King promptly put away the Supreme Treasure Elixir, and cheerfully greeted them. His attitude was extremely friendly, as if he hadn’t sent a Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast to kill them. Logan and the others saw through his true colors, hence they did not return the pleasantries.

“Beast King, let’s cut to the chase. Since we have torn skin already, our only demand now is for you to open the defensive barrier of the mountain range, bid the three of us a safe journey out, and I promise to send blueprints to dismantle the array a day later, so you can disengage the Destruction Array.”

Logan stared intently, his tone resolute: “If not, we three can risk death. We are not worth much, but if we can drag the Supreme Treasure of the Demon Beast clan down with us, wouldn’t that be a big gain? Think about it carefully, we are patient but there are limits, and don’t even think about playing tricks.”

“Don’t be impatient. Don’t forget that we were friends before. We can surely sit down and have a heart-to-heart conversation. There’s no need to talk about fighting and killing every time. How could I, the Beast King, bring myself to hurt you three? The earlier life-saving grace is clear in my memory, I am not an ungrateful person.”

The Beast King waved his hand and poured some tea. He tried to hand it over to Logan and his companions, his kindness surprising Lowen Shingo. Could they have been the ones overthinking? But how did the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast enter the small world without anyone instructing him to?

“Life-saving grace?” Logan responded with only a sarcastic laugh. The Demon Beast clan would never understand. Perhaps they were grateful upon waking up, but forgot as soon as time passed. Today, had he not set up the Destruction Array, the Beast King might have already turned against him.

Bart Cloud, being hot-tempered, got straight to the point: “Beast King, don’t try to act like a scheming human. We should be straightforward with each other. If there is going to be a negotiation, put your cards on the table.”

Hearing this, the Beast King didn’t rush. Instead, he carried on reminiscing with them. Bart Cloud found this very frustrating and decided to leave with Logan. It seemed there was no need to talk anymore, which left Beast King speechless. He had hoped to gain the upper hand.

Bart Cloud’s move disrupted all of Beast King’s plans. He evidently had no choice but to reveal all his cards, so he instructed the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast to stop them from leaving and ordered others to bring out some people.

“Oh yes, I have invited a few friends over. You’d better meet them. The first is Lowen Shingo’s Daoist protector. These past few days, I’ve been treating him with fine food and drinks. However, if you three don’t show goodwill, I will have to harden my heart and send him to meet the King of Hell.”

At Beast King’s gesture, a stout man was brought out, oppressed by several Demon Beasts. His body was covered in scars. He had been bullied over these days. The Beast King had taken out all his grievances with Logan and the others on him, so he looked nothing like a human anymore.

This scene enraged Lowen Shingo. The stout man had been with him for ten years and now he found himself in such a state, which made Shingo absolutely furious. However, he understood that the gap between his and the Beast King’s realm was too huge. Moreover, he had to prioritize the bigger picture so he clenched his fists, forcing himself to calm down.

The hefty man was severely injured and on the verge of death. The moment he saw Lowen, he shouted with all his might: “Young Master, leave immediately! Don’t worry about me. It’s not a pity for a protector to die. The Beast King is ruthless, not someone you can deal with. When you reach the Saint Realm one day, you can come and collect my corpse.”

“Beast King, what exactly do you want?” Lowen Shingo questioned, his eyes filled with endless anger and hatred. The Beast King just yawned in response and did not answer Lowen directly. But his stance was very clear – he intended to trade the lives of the three for that of the hefty man.

Logan’s eyes were dark, and he stepped forward: “Beast King, the array is set up by me. You are trying to negotiate with me by kidnapping Lowen Shingo’s protector? Do you think I will compromise? If you want to release him, that’s fine. After all, the survival of the Supreme Treasure of the Demon Beast clan is now in my hands. If you are really sincere, take a step back first.”

“Yes, indeed, the bargaining chip is too small for one person. But what if it’s three thousand people?” The Beast King stretched lazily, then stood up and looked at Logan with amusement, causing all three to freeze. What did Beast King mean by capturing three thousand people? They didn’t know that many people.

Logan was at a loss. What was the bargaining chip of three thousand people in Beast King’s hands? Could it be the Lords they had known before? But it didn’t seem likely as Beast King did not know about all that. Or could it be people from Lowen Shingo’s Sect? But if there were people from the Sect, why threaten with the Daoist protector? ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

Bart Cloud was also filled with questions. In the mountain range, they knew less than ten people, and had even fewer friends. Could it be that Beast King was deceived by someone? Or was he bluffing, using the so-called three thousand people just to make them concede?

As the three thousand people were brought out, Logan and his companions were dumbfounded. Turns out these three thousand were the Transcendent Tier folks. They had a sudden realization but couldn’t help but laugh. Had these three thousand not escaped the mountain range yet? The Heavenly Saint Daoist had escaped earlier and hadn’t taken them with him. It seemed they really were abandoned.

They once again failed to understand why the Beast King would use these three thousand individuals as his cards. They weren’t getting along from the start and even had unresolved issues, so why did the lives of these three thousand have anything to do with them?
