Chapter 154 Tempted
When Xiang Tian had first seen Shi Li cultivate, he had immediately realized the value of this cultivation method and began to interrogate him. Presently, there was also no way these Beast Kings would be unaware of the value of this cultivation method.
There had always been Beast Kings in the Beastman Continent, but since the ability couldn’t be inherited, it was basically all down to luck.
Even the big tribes that had produced Beast Kings before might not have a new Beast King appear for many years after their previous Beast King died, and they would often eventually decline.
But… to be honest, they all hoped that their glory could be passed on.
Those who were tribal chiefs always hoped that their sons would become the next tribal chief. Beast Kings also naturally hoped that their children could become Beast Kings as well.
The Rhinoceros Beast King wasn’t the only Beast King who was searching everywhere for a Beast God Fruit.
Now that they could become a Beast King without eating a Beast God Fruit… who wouldn’t want such a cultivation method?
If they could ensure that there was a Beast King in their family generation after generation…
Those who could become Beast Kings were usually born in good environments, so they firmly believed that their children could also become Beast Kings after they obtained that cultivation method.
The Beast Kings that were present all began to look eager, but they didn’t all think the same way as Shi Li.
Some of them stared at Shi Li, wanting to first ask Shi Li about everything he knew, while others planned to become friends with the people of the Big Bear Tribe just like the Rhinoceros Beast King, and then learn this cultivation method from the people of the Big Bear Tribe.
However, nobody spoke at this moment–that Shi Li and the Beast God Temple had called them over to speak about it must mean that they had something in mind. They just needed to allow the situation to progress naturally.
Sure enough, Shi Li said, “Everyone, if you want to obtain that cultivation method, you must catch Xiong Ye.”
Shi Li felt that he had played a very beautiful hand.
With the help of these Beast Kings, Xiong Ye and the others would definitely be caught. Later, he could teach that cultivation method to a few of the Beast Kings and the Beast God Temple, and say that he’d forced it out of Xiong Ye…
This way, he would definitely be able to make a beautiful turnaround and also gain some backing.
As expected, the Beast God indeed favored him and always gave him a chance.
With this in mind, Shi Li secretly prayed to the Beast God.
The Rhinoceros Beast King saw Shi Li acting this way and began to worry. He would never go against Xiong Ye, but he knew that the other Beast Kings would definitely be tempted.
If he hadn’t known beforehand that the Big Bear Tribe had several Beast Kings, and had already become good friends with the Big Bear Tribe, perhaps he would also be excited at this moment.
But now at this time, he was very worried. If he supported Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji, he might end up being attacked by these Beast Kings…
“Why do we have to catch Xiong Ye? We can use other methods to obtain that cultivation method.” The Ape Beast King suddenly spoke up.
This was something that many of the Beast Kings wanted to ask. They had a good impression of Xiong Ye, and everyone could see that he was a person who wasn’t much of a schemer. On the other hand, interacting with the Lion Beast King in front of them had left them feeling uncomfortable.
“The people of the Big Bear Tribe have always hidden that cultivation method. He definitely won’t tell you if you ask.” Shi Li said. “I used to be a member of the Big Bear Tribe and almost became mates with Xiong Ye, but only managed to obtain an incomplete version that left me with problems in my body.”
Shi Li’s previous unwillingness to fight with Xiong Ye and his indifference to the Rhinoceros Beast King’s provocation had already left the other Beast Kings suspecting whether his strength was as real as it seemed. Now that they heard them say this, they became more certain that this was the case.
The most important point was that Shi Li had spoken out about the cultivation method.
Why would he tell them if he had the complete cultivation method? He would definitely be hiding away and cultivating somewhere!
The Beast Kings were starting to get tempted, and it was at this time that Shen Yue came in to speak to the High Priest who’d remained silent the whole time, “Father, that Zhou Ji’s been caught and brought back.”
All of the Beast Kings present heard these words.
The High Priest glanced at the Beast Kings and said, “Would everyone like to come with me and take a look?”
The Beast Kings present all looked at each other, and someone soon walked over, looking at the still Rhinoceros Beast King and Ape Beast King as they passed by.
The Rhinoceros Beast King sighed and followed them over.
Everyone then followed the High Priest and went towards the back of the Beast God Temple. Only then did they learn that there was a hole at the back of the Beast God Temple, and the mountain behind it had been hollowed out.
This Beast God Temple really couldn’t be underestimated. Fortunately, although the Beast God Temple had produced Beast Kings before, they didn’t always have them in residence.
Only, in the future… If they really obtained that cultivation method, the Beast God Temple would become very powerful!
But they might also be able to obtain that cultivation method. By then, their own tribes…
Zhou Ji was currently staying in the hidden cave behind the temple.
He’d also been quite surprised to find himself taken to the Beast God Temple.
He’d thought that Shi Li had made a move on his own when he decided to catch him, but unexpectedly the Beast God Temple had also gotten involved.
The people of the Beast God Temple… why would they catch him?
The main reason why Zhou Ji agreed to come this time was related to Shi Li.
In the beginning, when Shi Li had still been in the Big Bear Tribe, he had already discovered that Shi Li was a bit strange. But he hadn’t felt any sense of belonging to the Big Bear Tribe back then and therefore hadn’t cared about it at all. Later, by the time he had cared, Shi Li had already been taken away by Xiang Tian.
There were many mysteries surrounding Shi Li.
HIs attitude towards Xiong Ye had changed very suddenly, and his entire character had also changed. He, who had never even left the Big Bear Tribe before, still managed to recognize Xiang Tian…
When they had arrived at the Beast God Temple this time and learned that Shi Li had become a Beast King, Zhou Ji had felt that this person was a time bomb and was prepared to kill him.
If he left Shi Li alive, who knew when he’d go crazy and do something unexpected that might affect his and Xiong Ye’s stable life in the Big Bear Tribe?
However, he had originally planned to have Hai Feng and the Rhinoceros Beast King sneak back and kill Shi Li after the Beast God Sacrifice was over and they’d already left the Beast God Temple. But now that Shi Li had come to catch him… he would simply go along with it and check out the situation.
At the same time, one thing was increasingly certain–Shi Li had to be killed.
However, Zhou Ji really hadn’t expected that Shi Li would manage to get the Beast God Temple to help him.
What made Zhou Ji even more surprised was that… Shi Li had even convinced the other Beast Kings.
Zhou Ji, who had discovered that Shi Li was bringing over a group of Beast Kings to come his way, began to frown… but he remained unmoving on the recliner that he’d been brought in on.
So, when Shi Li came in, he saw Zhou Ji lying there comfortably on the recliner with only a tiny bit of distress on his face.
He looked… very attractive.
What exactly was going on here? Why hadn’t anyone tied Zhou Ji up?!
Juurensha: Ahh, Shi Li, nothing ever goes as planned this life, you should know that by now
xiin: but he’s beloved by the Beast God! ^_^ this is all the Beast God’s plan~
