Chapter 240: Recruiting Four Beasts: A Royal Contrac (1/2)
t
The shock caused by Huskie slowly calmed down, and eventually, apart from the odd gazes they were still shooting him, nobody insisted on sticking to this topic. But due to Huskie, they started paying attention to Blackie as well. Huskie was not the only unknown beast here. Blackie was also completely unknown.
From the unique ability Blackie had granted Bai Xiaofei, she did not look like an ordinary cat at all. Unknowingly, they started labeling Blackie as a cheat-like existence akin to Huskie. Nonetheless, this was not their next focus.
Hu Xian’er was their next focus. She was a royal magical beast, and this was also the first time Bai Xiaofei had the chance to understand what that term represented. That was a promise Hu Xian’er made him previously. But before doing that, she had to first handle some other things: what to do with Xiaoluo and Xiaobu.
Tricked by Bai Xiaofei, the two were made to fight with their lives on the line to buy time for Hu Xian’er. In the course of doing that, they had offended the branches of two different royal clans. Although they had only dealt with the Steel Rhinoceros, what they did had also clearly made their position known.
Nobody knew if the Berserk Gorilla or the golden wolf had transmitted the information of what had happened before they had died. If that had indeed happened, the two Earth Infants would no longer stay neutral like the past.
The Earth Infants might be an extremely unique species, but being killed was only a matter of time after offending a royal clan. Thus, solving this predicament was their utmost focus. And the so-called solution here was an act of making a stand.
“Are you sure you want to join my fox clan?” Hu Xian’er asked in astonishment as she stared at Xiaoluo and Xiaobu. It was not that she was unwilling to accept them, but she was truly astonished by the request.
Presently, there were eight branches of royal clans within the Infinite Mountain Range. But of the eight, only seven of them were with actual territories. The fox clan Hu Xian’er came from was the branch on the verge of destruction.
“We have no other options. You are the only royal we actually know, but if we do not swear fealty to a royal, even surviving will be hard from now on…,” Xiaobu said as he blinked his innocent eyes. The Earth Infant was a species birthed by the earth itself. The moment they opened their hearts to someone, that person would be able to see their purest side.
“But…”
“Sigh, what is there to hesitate? Why do you have so little confidence in yourself? Think about it. If you end up dominating the Infinite Mountain Range, Xiaobu and Xiaoluo would have made the correct choice today,” said Bai Xiaofei while Hu Xian’er was still hesitating. He could see the reason for her hesitation. Although he did not know any specifics, he still knew that increasing the number of experts around Hu Xian’er would never be something bad.
Xiaobu and Xiaoluo would absolutely be excellent helpers. Thus, with Bai Xiaofei here, even if the two wanted to leave, they would have no way of leaving. In any case, they had already decided to follow Hu Xian’er. After hearing Bai Xiaofei’s words, Hu Xian’er still hesitated. But she made up her mind shortly. She agreed with his words. In the past, she had the mindset of a gambler when thinking about her future in the Infinite Mountain Range. But after absorbing the power of the Saint Rank magic core, she saw a bright path ahead of her, a bright path Bai Xiaofei brought her.
