*Pffft*
All the assassins coughed up blood and collapsed on the ground. All of them were connected to the Grand Array Formation, which ant since the Grand Array Formation didn't activate properly, they received backlash.
Normally it wouldn't end up so badly, but since this Grand Array Formation was simply too big, it directly claid their lives.
The Human Cultivators and the Emperor were confused. They thought sothing bad was supposed to happen.
"With the help of this little Fox and her team, I was able to alter the main Formation." The Inscription Saint said simply, but everyone understood.
They were saved because of him!
Human Cultivators blushed and coughed awkwardly, hiding their defensive treasures.
anwhile, the new Beasts cleaned the stage of the bodies.
"I'm still waiting for your excuse." He tapped on the table lightly, but both the Lion and other Beasts knew he was angry.
"Wait never mind." He shook his head. "Since you attacked indiscriminately, it doesn't seem you have enough intelligence to hold a conversation." He dismissed them completely.
One Beast angrily growled, but the mont he did so, he was blasted by Chen Shi.
Runes circled around him. Runic Cultivator! The Human Cultivators gulped hard, this was the legendary Runic Cultivator!
The blasted Beasts coughed up blood, not really surprising since half its body was shredded to pieces.
"What? You want to fight." Chen Shi joined his hands and supported his nose. "Go ahead, we can play." More and more Runes released their pressure, pretty much paralysing the Beasts.
The Human Cultivator's eyes widened. They were left speechless that soone could stun Beasts in this way. This was way easier and safer than using the Berserker Powder!
They made a ntal note, that they should learn more about Inscriptions and Runes so that they can hunt Beast more easily.
Little did they know that they were just too stupid to learn this kind of skill...
Aiko stared at them, the injured Beast still stared at her with open hostility.
She couldn't understand why...
"Yo, you big bastard." One familiar panther greeted the Lion with a snake tail.
"Hoho~ you finally show yourself." The Lion stood up nacingly and they approached each other, one on four legs while the other on two.
"You still walk on two legs like those bastard Humans?" The Black Panther said cringing.
"You still don't know when to bow your head in front of soone stronger?" The Lion said nacingly.
"Heh, who is stronger here?" The Panther snorted sarcastically.
The Human Cultivators were upset, but they couldn't stir up trouble since they were vastly outnumbered by powerful Beasts.
"Look to the right." The Lion said with a an smile.
The Black Panther looked to his right, but didn't see anything.
"My right you stupid bastard!" The Lion scoffed at him.
"Who are you calling stupid you muscle-headed cun-" The Panther cursed him and while doing so, he turned left to see who was stronger.
His eyes trained on a little Fox and his mouth stopped. There was sothing just so familiar about this little Fox.
The Lion scoffed again. "Seriously, because of you, she thinks I'm also a bully!"
*Ptooey*
He spat out disdainfully.
The Black Panther was confused, but once that little Fox's fur changed...
'Oh, shit!' He sweated buckets.
He imdiately ran towards her at top speed. Chen Shi was shocked and wanted to blast him away, but he soon choked up at the sight.
The Black Panther elegantly prostrated himself, like he trained many, many tis in the past.
"My apologiiiiiiiiiiiiiies, Princeeeees!" He stopped in front of the Lady who was holding a small Fox.
Aiko's brain processed what happened. "That doesn't an I will forgive you!" She snorted.
The Beasts were dumbfounded, the Humans were dumbfounded, and even the Lion was dumbfounded!
For soone like him who easily talks shit as if he was breathing, he caved in way too fast! They were slightly less upset, but still confused on why he would submit so fast...
"I know, I will make it up to you, Princess!" He wagged his tail like an obedient dog, except he was a Panther...
"You better!" Aiko crossed her arms.
The Human Cultivators stared at the little Fox again and tried to understand her, but no matter how long they stared at her, the only thing they were able to conclude was that this was just an odd Fox...
"Of course! Of course!" The Black Panther was happy that the little Fox didn't hold much of a grudge.
He witnessed the horror and precision of her flag planting techniques, and if she still held a grudge against him...
*Shiver**Gulp*
He was just happy that she didn't!
"I want at!" Aiko commanded, but before she could finish, the Black Panther already swiped most of the at on the surrounding plates and presented it in front of Aiko.
"Hmpf, you are excused!" Aiko dismissed him, but inside she was happy. She was pretty hungry and agitated from the Berserker Powder they confiscated.
Aiko happily munched on the at and the Black Panther returned to the Lion's side, showing his fierce side again.
"Heh." The Black Panther proudly puffed up his chest.
The Lion snorted, but didn't comnt on his shalessness. "How is the situation?"
"We confiscated all the Berserker Powder." He said shortly. "I also heard that you have more."
"Yes, we do." The Lion stared in a certain direction.
"Where?" The Black Panther was confused and followed his gaze.
"Damm-" The Black Panther wanted to curse, but Aiko looked their way.
From the nacing Black Panther beca a sweet little kitty in but a mont.
Aiko stared at the cute kitty before returning to her al.
The Black Panther swapped back to his nacing form, but he was getting strange glances from his fellow Beasts.
They couldn't understand why he would be so subservient towards a dumb Fox...
He snorted at them and gazed at them like those Beasts were so kind of idiots.
"What? You want to fight?!" Slly Wind who had half of his body pulverised roared.
The Black Panther glanced at him briefly, but then looked away with a snort.
Slly Wind growled, but he couldn't pick much of a fight with, since his body was still healing through his Bloodline.
"Just throw him into the latrine." The Lion sighed, shaking his head.
That's right, the Slly Panther was healing through shit! He slled so bad that the Elders had to give him that nickna in the hopes that he would be more aware of his foul odour and cause him to bathe often!
Unfortunately, the Slly Panther was as smart as he slled, so he despised the Elders for giving him that na! He would never forgive them!
Aiko finished the at as the final clean-ups happened.
The Emperor was sweating buckets as this was the second ti the banquet was interrupted in a way that could endanger his whole Empire.
He wiped his sweat, but he felt like he aged a few years from this whole event.
"Anyway, we will escort you back later on, did you finish the negotiations?" The Black Panther asked the Lion.
"Not yet, there are a few things we need to flesh out more, but let's do that another way, this place still slls." Lion pinched his sensitive nose.
"It's not from this place." The Black Panther said and briefly glanced at a certain Slly Panther.
"Right..." The Lion sighed, he completely forgot about this guy. "Let's continue this another day when things… vent out."
The Emperor nodded weakly, now that all the pressure and worry was mostly dissipated, he could finally take in that awful sll.
The group disbanded and they returned to their respective palaces for rest...
...
Aiko sat down with a slightly bloated stomach, she finally had enough and her Beast Core purity didn't even drop! That ant that the Emperor actually cared about their well-being and wasn't just putting up air.
'Maybe that cold slab was also made for Beasts to cool down?' Aiko tilted her head, she no longer saw the Emperor as negatively as before.
'Well, whatever.' Aiko shrugged, it was not like she would spend that much ti here, but it also didn't feel bad.
Lady Liu placed Aiko on her lap with a brush in her hand. She cleaned Aiko's ssy hair after that fight.
She liked to do this since Aiko's hair was simply divine. Soft and silky smooth, it is a joy to take care of. It also wasn't all that long which ant it didn't burden her to brush Aiko's hair.
"What do we do next?" Aiko asked Chen Shi, who was sitting nearby and sipping tea with an unsightly face.
"You will go away and we will finish the council." Chen Shi tried to dismiss Aiko, but...
"So we are attending another eting." The Inscription Saint could not yet match Aiko's shalessness.
He glared at Aiko, but he couldn't dismiss her since Lady Liu was smiling happily.
He knew that Lady Liu didn't like these kinds of things, but it was safer by his side, so that's why he was taking her with him.
The Inscription Saint also disliked the fact that the Emperor tried to bait him with cheap copies of Lady Liu.
They were not even 1/10th as attractive as Lady Liu!
This angered him even more, since the Emperor didn't even pay proper attention to his likes!
*Knock Knock*
"Who?" Chen Shi didn't even bother finishing the sentence.
"The Little Fox was invited to the Royal Garden, by his Majesty, the Prince." The royal maid said courteously, but was quivering inside. She was really scared after what happened in the banquet hall.
Aiko's ears perked up, while she was not interested in the Prince, she was very much interested in the Royal Garden. She wondered if it would be the sa ss as that banquet hall and main Palace or if it would be a graceful and magnificent place full of learning material.
Aiko's ears twitched, but her team grimaced. They noticed the Prince glancing at Aiko quite often and they didn't like his smiling and kind expression!
They stared at each other, but before they could discuss it with Aiko.
"Sure, but say that I will bring others with ." Aiko didn't use any etiquette, since she was mostly tired, but also...
She was attacked on his grounds, so she didn't hold as much respect towards the Royal Family as before.
The royal maid bowed and disappeared...
