Chapter 176 - Parallel World (7) (2/2)
Xiong Ye shook his head, “No need.” He recognized all of the Beast Kings there, and there was no need to meet them again. As for making friends… He didn’t feel the need to become friends with the Beast Kings who were recommended by Shi Li.
Shi Li was rejected by Xiong Ye and felt that his goodwill had just been tossed to the ground and stomped on. He was very dissatisfied and even suspected that Xiong Ye was looking down on him.
After his and Xiong Ye’s strength increased, he had wanted to find a powerhouse to tie themselves to. However, Xiong Ye hadn’t approved of his behavior and had refused to agree no matter what. He could only find a way to go on on his own, but as a result, because he’d gone alone, nobody had valued him at all, and he’d even been ridiculed…
However, he was now a Beast King and nobody could ridicule him anymore. In fact now that the tables had turned, he had even taught those who had looked down on him a lesson.
If only that person hadn’t been a high level Beast Warrior and a tribal chief, he definitely would’ve killed him.
Shi Li thought about many things and left discontentedly. Xiong Ye knew that he must have been thinking about some messy things again, but he didn’t know that Shi Li was recalling things from over 20 years ago.
At that time, he and Shi Li had just become medium level Beast Warriors. Based on his thoughts, he wanted them to find a sparsely populated place and settle down with the people of the tribe. However, Shi Li had wanted to join a big tribe and even felt that since his strength and potential was so good, the big tribe should pay attention to him and provide him with many benefits.
Xiong Ye felt that Shi Li was expecting too much.
If they were willing to give the big tribes some benefits in order to rely on them, they may be willing to accept them. However, if they were to ask others for benefits…
If the tribal chief of the big tribe was him, he wouldn’t be willing to give them any benefits.
Sure enough, Shi Li ultimately failed.
“That Shi Li has a bad heart. You should be more on guard in the future.” The Ox Beast King reminded Xiong Ye.
She was an old Beast King, and her children could be considered to have done quite well for themselves. Although her children weren’t Beast Kings, a few of them were still high level Beast Warriors and would be able to live a good life even when she was no longer there in the future. Therefore, she never tried to please these young Beast Kings, and until Zhou Ji started treating Xiong Ye differently, she hadn’t paid any attention to Xiong Ye and Shi Li either.
She didn’t agree with some of Xiong Ye’s ideas, but she couldn’t deny that Xiong Ye was a good person.
In contrast, Shi Li’s behavior of flattering the younger Beast Kings and ignoring older Beast Kings like her made her feel a little like she’d been looked down on.
Xiong Ye smiled bitterly and just wanted to say something when the High Priest came over, “Xiong Ye, Shi Li, come with me. I’ll take you to the Beast God Temple to hold the ceremony to dissolve your relationship as mates.”
Shi Li immediately stood up, but he felt a little guilty when Xiong Ye glanced over at him. On the other hand, Xiong Ye was very cool and calm.
The priest led them away, and they soon arrived at the Beast God Temple.
The ceremony for breaking up mates was similar to that of becoming mates, but the priest asked them a different question instead.
This matter had weighed heavily on Xiong Ye and Shi Li’s heart for a long time, and it was finally resolved at an unprecedented speed.
“Beast God up above, from today on, you are both single and have no mate.” The High Priest secretly praised himself as he spoke.
Originally, this matter was meant to be resolved in the afternoon. However, when the High Priest saw Shi Li go to Xiong Ye and speak with him, he’d pushed the matter ahead so as to prevent anything unexpected from happening.
Now, the matter that the Beast God had asked him to do was finally done!
The High Priest gave Shi Li a deep, intense look.
Shi Li was looked over twice by the High Priest.
The High Priest must value him very much, but he didn’t say anything or make any requests… Wait, it seemed that the High Priest was very willing to break up his and Xiong Ye’s relationship. Could it be that the High Priest… was like the others and wanted to introduce his daughter to him?
The High Priest’s daughter was very beautiful, but she was a little young… However, he didn’t mind waiting another two years.
While Shi Li was thinking about these things, Xiong Ye was feeling inexplicably relaxed after the first moment of loss.
However, he wasn’t given a chance to be relaxed for long because that night, Hu Yue tried to give Xiong An to him, wanting Xiong An to become his mate. She even said that Xiong An was more reliable than Shi Li.
Xiong Ye: He had always treated Xiong An, who had been born after they arrived at the Beastman Continent, as his own child!
However, it wasn’t only Hu Yue who recommended people to Xiong Ye.
The next day, many tribes sent people to Xiong Ye. Even those with good relationships with Shi Li did so.
Xiong Ye: “……” These people were all young enough to be his children! He really wasn’t interested!
Zhou Ji: “……” He suddenly felt a little upset when he saw so many people around Xiong Ye!
