Once again, humans were turned into food, happening right before his eyes.

To be honest, even though Ye Qiu was now ruthless and cold enough, treating humans as food still made him involuntarily nauseous, especially now, with such a plate of human flesh and blood placed right in front of him.

Let alone having an appetite, it was fortunate he didn’t vomit.

"Brother Wolf King, are you not satisfied with the delicacies at my feast?" Jin Bao Lord said casually, as the lame wolf opposite also cast his gaze over.

If it was the previous Wolf King Lord, eating a person would be natural, but the key was, now residing in the body of the Wolf King Lord was Ye Qiu’s soul. Even though it was someone else’s body, Ye Qiu still couldn’t bring himself to eat such things.

"On my way here, I had already eaten. I’m afraid I cannot enjoy this fine meal." The Wolf King Lord explained, though his explanation was rather weak. The lame wolf and Jin Bao naturally didn’t believe it.

They thought the Wolf King Lord dared not eat because he was afraid it had been poisoned.

However, Jin Bao and the lame wolf did not expose this, as humans were still considered a delicacy to them.

"Brother Wolf King, it seems you’ve lost the blessing of this gourmet meal. It’s a very tender meat." Jin Bao smiled, and with a wide mouth, he swallowed a large piece of flesh and blood, consuming the innards in one gulp. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Ye Qiu, standing to the side, turned slightly pale, truly due to the nauseous, vomiting sensation constantly stabbing at him.

"Damn it, these two damn bastards." Watching Jin Bao and the lame wolf feast, Ye Qiu clenched his fists continuously, his knuckles turning white.

It must be said that at this moment, Ye Qiu was filled with murderous intent. He could coldly stand by and watch others save people while he remained aloof because he had seen too many ungrateful people, especially those humans on this ancestral land, who had no connection with him.

Therefore, he was able to refuse the man asking him for help in saving others.

But now, seeing humans being treated as food, dismembered, and even placed on the dining table, Ye Qiu couldn’t accept it.

Perhaps, Ye Qiu could look at the problem from another perspective to lessen his murderous intent, such as recognizing that humans do similar things, placing other creatures on the table as food, like chickens, ducks, geese, or cucumbers and carrots. If they had consciousness, wouldn’t they also dislike seeing their kind treated as food?

The murderous intent gradually subsided. Although he didn’t completely agree with this perspective change, it helped calm his mind, making him less restless.

The aura around Ye Qiu slightly changed, Jin Bao and the lame wolf both glanced at Ye Qiu and just smiled, not paying much attention, because in their view, seeing one’s own kind eaten and reacting like this was natural.

To remain indifferent would be terrifying and warrant attention.

For this reason, Jin Bao even teased Ye Qiu: "Brother Wolf King, if you won’t eat, you could let your Think Tank have some for you."

After speaking, he let out two hearty laughs.

Ye Qiu resisted the urge to snap immediately, reminding himself that he was currently in the role of a Think Tank and it wasn’t time to rip the facade yet.

At the very least, he needed to understand the other party’s purpose first.

Nevertheless, Ye Qiu’s determination to kill Jin Bao was now a foregone conclusion; such a beast that eats humans must die!

Soon, all the flesh and blood on the stone mill plate had been consumed. Jin Bao wiped his mouth, using his pointed claw to pick at the meat fibers between his teeth, showing a look of lingering satisfaction.

"Jin Bao Lord invites me here, not just to meet this old friend, I assume." The Wolf King Lord spoke up, mainly because Ye Qiu wanted to quickly understand their intent before taking action and eliminating them.

"Since Brother Wolf King put it that way, let’s get to the point." Jin Bao retracted his claw, transforming it back into a human hand, and wiped his palms.

"Brother Wolf King, inviting you here, there’s a matter I’d like to discuss with you."

The Wolf King Lord remained silent, signaling Jin Bao to continue.

"Recently, a few guys have been rapidly expanding their territories and are about to extend their hand to us here. Once I’m annexed, you’ll be next, Brother Wolf King, because we’re neighbors—a case of ’lips gone, teeth cold’." Jin Bao said.

"So what’s Jin Bao Lord’s intention?" Ye Qiu had somewhat guessed the other party’s intent.

"We need to unite and face the enemy together." Jin Bao stated.

"How do we join forces?"

"By combining all our powers, others will naturally be deterred."

"As long as Brother Wolf King merges your power with my Jin Bao’s team, I believe we will slash through thorns and brambles, invincible." Jin Bao Lord said slowly.

"Brother Jin Bao wants to use my power at your disposal?" The Wolf King Lord retorted.

Jin Bao paused for a moment and said indifferently, "You could say that."

It was quite clear, Jin Bao intended to annex the Wolf King Lord’s territory, receiving all its powers to achieve this so-called alliance.

"Seems I have no choice but to agree." The Wolf King Lord said slowly.

"Brother Wolf King, you’d best choose this way; it’s a good thing for everyone. Rest assured, even though you might not be the lord afterward, I won’t treat you badly. I can give you some authority." Jin Bao stated.

"Of course, Brother Wolf King, you can also choose not to agree, but I think you won’t disagree." After finishing, Jin Bao gave a mysterious smile.

At this moment, the lame wolf on the opposite spoke: "Follow Lord Jin Bao, and you shall live; otherwise, you will perish."

"Haha..." The Wolf King chuckled; it seemed the lame wolf had submitted to Jin Bao, working for him. However, it was expected; otherwise, why would he be here?

"Don’t think that just because I was defeated by you before, I will continue to be defeated. Now, I am also at the late peak level of the Ruins Realm. If we fight again, it’s still uncertain who will win." The lame wolf’s eyes emitted a bloody glow, clearly pressuring the Wolf King Lord to agree, or he would take action.

"Brother Wolf King, I believe you’ll make the right choice. You might not care about this old friend, but aren’t you curious why he chose to follow me?" Jin Bao said, and suddenly his aura changed.

An aura of a Saint spread from him.

No, this was not the aura of a true Saint; it was that of a Semi-Saint.

It felt that because Jin Bao entered the Semi-Saint level, the lame wolf decided to follow him. Now he deliberately revealed this aura to force me to give up the idea of confrontation.

This was truly a Hongmen Banquet Jin Bao had set for the Wolf King Lord.

What a pity...

Ye Qiu sighed.

A pity for what?

Jin Bao and the lame wolf were puzzled, unsure what Ye Qiu meant by ’pity’.

The Wolf King Lord suddenly smiled and said to Jin Bao and the lame wolf, "Pity I am not him."
