Chapter 428: One-Year Agreement
"Your Excellency must be joking." Old Turtle couldn't help but chuckle, continuing, "If it were me, even if I disagreed, I wouldn't let go of a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone so easily.
I don't believe Your Excellency can resist such temptation."
Including Old Turtle, the three Beast Kings weren't fools. From Quan Yi's various actions, they could easily see his desire for them.
Moreover, Quan Yi didn't even try to hide this thought.
However, Quan Yi's proposal was contrary to his intentions. The difference between his actions and subjective thoughts made them feel he was being hypocritical.
Old Turtle's question broke through all the pretense, and at the same time, it represented its readiness to face any sudden changes.
Quan Yi's expression remained unchanged, a calm smile always on his face.
He greatly admired Old Turtle's directness and decisiveness, which made things simpler.
In response, Quan Yi decided to answer Old Turtle with the same directness.
He said, "You're right. To be honest, I desperately desire for the three of you to become my and Xiao Wu's Soul Ring Living Beings.
My desires and ambitions are much greater than you imagine.
But precisely because of this, I will treat you with more restraint and kindness.
To complete the Soul Ring Living Being Plan, the most important thing is for the Soul Beast and Soul Master to reach an agreement and work together.
Flame Senior reached a consensus with me because his time was running out.
But you all have a long time before your time runs out, and I cannot use the same conditions and means to reach a consensus with you.
Therefore, to complete the plan, I must also provide a guarantee, which is not to force you by coercive means.
I am only using my and Huo Wu's personal future as a bargaining chip to make a request to you.
If, in the end, you still don't choose us, we will only choose other Ten Thousand Year Soul Beasts and will not harm you.
That is my plan."
As soon as Quan Yi finished speaking, Old Turtle burst into an aged laughter.
"Because it is precious, it should be cherished. I understand Your Excellency's meaning."
Quan Yi's meaning was clear: either take it all directly, or choose to take nothing at all.
Anyway, they had the ability to find other Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings and Soul Bones elsewhere. If it was just for the Soul Rings and Soul Bones, he didn't necessarily have to choose them.
However, even so, Quan Yi's desire for them hadn't changed in the slightest.
This was a matter of trade-offs. To realize the Soul Ring Living Being Plan, something had to be sacrificed.
And Quan Yi sacrificed the option of hunting the three Ten Thousand Year Soul Beasts.
Quan Yi continued, "I know all of this is a bit too sudden, and everyone needs time to think it over. There's no need to rush to answer.
Xiao Wu and I have not yet reached the level to absorb Soul Rings. According to our cultivation speed, we will roughly need about a year.
Let's set a limit of one year.
If, by then, you haven't made up your minds, then we will go elsewhere to find other Ten Thousand Year Soul Beasts."
Quan Yi proposed a One-Year Agreement to give each other time to think calmly, and also to give each other time to communicate.
"What does everyone think?"
Old Turtle asked those around, and Albatross and Little Lion also nodded in agreement after a moment of contemplation.
"Alright, let's set a limit of one year. The three of us will give you a definite answer."
With the deadline set, the banquet was coming to an end.
During the hottest part of the afternoon, the three Beast Kings left the island with their well-fed subordinates.
Because they arrived too early, the banquet ended much earlier than expected.
The large bonfire that Quan Yi had prepared for lighting only served the purpose of grilling food.
Standing on the shore, watching the gradually receding figures of the beasts, Huo Wu asked Quan Yi with a hint of worry, "Xiao Yi, do you think they will agree?"
Quan Yi gently shook his head and said, "I don't know, but we have already shown all our sincerity.
As for whether it will succeed or not, it depends on fate."
After saying that, Quan Yi turned around smartly and walked towards the interior of the island.
As he walked, he also said, "Let's go, we have several hundred more family members with huge sizes, now, we should also think about how to deal with this problem."
The Sea Iguana Dragon Lizard Clan has just over three hundred adult members.
The one with the highest cultivation is a Sea Iguana Dragon Lizard at the 90,000-year level, which is also the lizard that the Sea Iguana Flame Dragon King used its Dragon Horns to empower to detonate the Volcano switch.
In terms of talent and bloodline concentration, this Sea Iguana Dragon Lizard is not comparable to the Sea Iguana Flame Dragon King at all.
However, before sacrificing itself, the Sea Iguana Flame Dragon King, in addition to the Dragon Horns, also infused a part of the Dragon Race's essence blood into its body.
This was to purify its bloodline and increase its chances of evolving into a true dragon.
And Quan Yi's responsibility is to protect the Sea Iguana Dragon Lizard Clan until its cultivation reaches the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring level.
However, the problem is that Quan Yi himself still has to cultivate and does not have so much Time to take care of this group of behemoths.
Therefore, Quan Yi had no choice but to rely on the strength of his family.
After consultation with the Flame Dragon King and his family, Quan Yi decided to temporarily relocate the Sea Iguana Dragon Lizard Clan to the Blue Silver Island.
The powerful Quan Li will replace Quan Yi in protecting this group of the Sea Iguana Dragon Lizard Clan.
As for their original island, it can only be temporarily abandoned, waiting for the future to reoccupy it.
The next day, more than three hundred Sea Iguana Dragon Lizards, led by Quan Yi, swam mightily towards the Blue Silver Island.
Although the speed of the Sea Iguana Dragon Lizards is not comparable to that of the Demon Soul Great White Shark, it is considered to be above average among the Sea Soul Beasts.
After a day and night of constant speed sailing, the Sea Iguana Dragon Lizards successfully arrived at the western side of the Blue Silver Island.
The western side of the Blue Silver Island has not yet been developed, so there are few people, which is just suitable for the Sea Iguana Dragon Lizard Clan to live here.
When Quan Yi stepped on the beach of the Blue Silver Island again, a sense of inexplicable peace arose in his heart.
This feeling was like the ease when Quan Yi returned home. Unconsciously, Quan Yi also developed similar emotions towards the Blue Silver Island.
Compared with a few years ago, if you look closely at the seabed around the Blue Silver Island, you can find a layer of blue-silver covering the seabed.
This is the Blue Silver Seaweed that has just grown branches and buds.
Seeing this, Quan Yi couldn't help but sigh at the tenacious and resilient vitality of the Blue Silver Seaweed.
It is precisely because of them that Quan Yi can foresee that in the near future, the island will reappear, with its lush scenery as a marine grassland.
However, just as they were settling the Sea Iguana Dragon Lizard Clan, a Little Black Dragon suddenly sprang out of Quan Yi's body.
The Flame Dragon King stared at the beach with a solemn expression and urged, "Quan Yi, quickly focus your attention on your left leg, the vibrations emitted by this island are a bit unusual."
Quan Yi didn't know why, but seeing the Flame Dragon King behaving so restlessly, he immediately felt that something was wrong.
He immediately poured his mind into his left leg. In an instant, the solid ground began to vibrate violently, as if a super-large earthquake had occurred.
"What a strong vibration!"
Before Quan Yi could carefully sense it, an extremely strong vibration was transmitted to Quan Yi's brain through his left leg, startling Quan Yi, who was not prepared.
