Towards Eternity
Ch 584.4. The Adventures of Weng Ying Luan III (SPECIAL)

Why was Ying Luan who was a young man who had always been calm at all times able to come this far just because of the one place she had just come to.

Usually he would not act up like this, even in fact he himself was also confused. Her childhood memories before becoming part of the Weng Family are suddenly recalled.

When his mother trained him very hard when he was almost dead because of the rigors of his training. The days of receiving blows from his mother made him realize that freedom is the right of every living being. The excessive coercion done by the Fire Lion Kingdom to train the martial arts of minors was an act of evil in his eyes.

He is now free from his mother, and the children deserve freedom and a better life. If this battle between humans and beasts on Dongwu Island was the reason why it couldn't happen, then he would stop it.

"When you look quite mature in my eyes, but who would have thought that your thinking was so childish. I'm sure your parents never taught you the one whose name is defending the homeland" the Fire Lion King sneered.

"My mother only taught me how to be not weak. My foster father taught me to be what I wanted, and this is who I am now." Weng Ying Luan replied to that sneer with the actual fact.

The Fire Lion King regretted having said something like that to Ying Luan. Basically Weng Ying Luan was indeed raised not to gain restraint from others and live to be free.

"Cih, then you'll die! People with thoughts like yours are the most dangerous to the Fire Lion Kingdom!"

The two hands of the Fire Lion King were clenched. Qi enveloped both of his hands and formed like a glove of metal that had sharp spines. Without waiting for Ying Luan to strike first, the Lion Fire King flew over quickly and gave a fist to Ying Luan.

Taking a slow breath, Qi flowed within Ying Luan's body. His hand moved and fended off the Fire Lion King's fist, the two then clashed against each other. The Fire Lion King launched a relentless punch and kick attack, while Ying Luan repelled and occasionally gave Qi-containing tread attacks on the Fire Lion King's limbs.

The fight of the two caused a huge commotion within the forest. Several ferocious beasts with strength in the Soul Unification realm watched from a distance and laughed evilly seeing those who were fellow humans fighting.

"Khehehe. They even fight each other while the war that's going on with us hasn't won the winner." A purple-colored heyna laughed wickedly looking at the fight above the sky.

"Of course we're the winners! After the two of them finish fighting, we will instantly kill them and that way those humans are no longer a problem for us because of their leader whom we have killed!" From next to him, a brown bear that had a large body equaling a small hill spoke with a strong killing intent.

As the two were engrossed in watching their fight, elsewhere, the feathered elephant that had come along with Weng Ying Luan had previously come to see the fight. He cursed loudly at Ying Luan because she herself was causing a commotion and attracting a lot of attention.

Roughly after an hour or so the fight between Weng Ying Luan and the Fire Lion King took place, almost all of the ferocious beasts that were in the Soul Unification realm on Dongwu Island had gathered around it and waited for the moment they were waiting for, that was when their fight was over and both of them were in a state of exhaustion.

The dozens of ferocious beasts that were in the Soul Unification realm did not hide their killing intent at all and blatantly enveloped their surroundings with strong killing intent and aura in order for the beasts to be savage the weaker ones did not come closer.

Weng Ying Luan and the Fire Lion King were not unaware of their presence at all, they had already sensed their arrival one by one. The Fire Lion King himself did not care much about all of them because with his strength, he was able to finish off all of the ferocious beasts. Only the ferocious beasts with strength in the 5th stage Soul Unification realm alone could he not kill all along.

While Ying Luan, she had deliberately let them gather in one place so that she could carry out her plan.

"These should be beasts with powers in the Soul Unification realm of stages 1 to 4. Only those in stage 5 did not come. Yes it was quite natural, a Martial Practitioner at the 5th stage Soul Unification realm was able to see anything within a radius of tens of kilos of meters just by using his Qi, not to mention coupled with his Soul Power."

*PAM!!*

The Fire Lion King's elbow smashed into Weng Ying Luan's defensive hand. The young man was pushed back several meters, the Fire Lion King did not stop his attack.

In one breath, dozens of consecutive blows were unleashed. The punches formed dozens of energy attacks that formed bright gold-colored fists. Like rain, the attack hit Weng Ying Luan's body, yet her defense did not slack off in the slightest.

"He should have started to get a little tired from the continuous physical fight. His muscles were doing too much activity in one breath," muttered Weng Ying Luan.

This was his plan, he would make the Fire Lion King continuously attack him until he himself was exhausted and eventually fell down by himself. But it seemed that if he followed that plan, this fight would only end in a few days. While he was unsure, that those beasts would be willing to watch for a long time. Chances were that they would start to disperse one after another, or worst of all, the ferocious beasts with strength in the 5th stage Soul Unification realm came and gave surprise attacks to the two of them.

"It seems I should end this now. Please forgive me for being disrespectful" Weng Ying Luan said suddenly.

The Fire Lion King felt like something was wrong. He hurriedly turned to the surroundings, and discovered that it turned out that a giant cage had been created and locked the two of them, as well as the ferocious beasts that were watching their fight.

"The cage?!"

Not only himself who was surprised by it, all the wild animals that were locked in the cage also cried out and roared in astonishment. They did not feel any signs before, but the cage suddenly formed and sealed them all away perfectly.

"Since when?! I didn't even feel it?!" Excited one of the wild animals.

"Fuck! They must have planned this! Let's quickly destroy this cage, they must be planning something even more terrifying!" Another wild beast roared in panic.

The other ferocious beasts nodded in agreement. They started attacking that big cage. Gore, claw, kick, bite, or even bump with their body or other body parts. However, the confinement did not budge in the slightest.

Desperately the beasts tried again and again, but it was still the same. The confinement that trapped them was like an enormous rock mountain and no matter how powerful their attacks were, the mountain did not budge.

"Damn it!!! Humil humans! You dare to trap us!!!"

When the ferocious beasts thought that the confinement was made by the cooperation of Ying Luan and the Fire Lion King, above the sky, the face of the Fire Lion King did not show that at all.

"Hehehe. Do you remember what I said before? I will make you all make peace and stop the bullshit war that has been going on for decades" Weng Ying Luan said with a big smile at the Fire Lion King.

"?!" The Fire Lion King was shocked by the young man's statement. No he had expected that young man who was not even twenty yet would seriously want to manifest his nonsense.

"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!"

Weng Ying Luan shouted and an enormous amount of Soul Power surges out from within her body. The amount of Soul Power was enormous, even equaling the amount of Soul Power of a Martial Practitioner in the realm of Soul Unification stage 5.

The Fire Lion King as well as the ferocious beasts within the cage created by Ying Luan felt suffocated by the Soul Power. They had not expected Weng Ying Luan to have hidden her strength so well.

"Why how can?! You're obviously still at stage 3! How can you have this amount of Soul Power?!" The Fire Lion King asked as he held onto his strangled neck.

"There is no need to level up to have great Soul Power. You can obtain it by having the Bloodline Descendants of the ancient race in your blood. I only realized it a few weeks ago, that my mother turned out to be the one who gave this Bloodline Heredity power. With this my Soul Power will always increase with time without the need for me to practice."

"Don't that sound terrible? My mother was a monster that lived like a human, and that meant I was a monster just like her. But because of my foster father, I can have a heart like any human being, and I will realize freedom for every human being."

With one hand raised upwards, an immense pressure instantly hit the body of the Fire Lion King and the ferocious beasts. The ground beneath them crumbled as it held their bodies pushed to the ground by force.

"You guys will give me a choice, tie the Soul Contract with me, or die." Weng Ying Luan's voice echoed throughout the cage.

Hearing his words, the ferocious beasts roared furiously and tried to get up on their feet. But they only hurt themselves. Their bones immediately broke as soon as they tried to get up on their feet even though they were just bowing their bodies.

"You! What do you want?!"

"Hurry up and talk, man!!"

"Son! If our leader finds out you did this to us, you're dead!!"

The first person to give up on the situation was himself, he spoke to Weng Ying Luan telepathically.

"All right.I will follow your will. I'll sign the contract, but let me know what it is first" he said reluctantly. He was still willing to fight, yet he could do nothing.

"Hahaha.don't rush, just relax. Here, you can read it yourself with the others."

Weng Ying Luan swung her hand into the air and a few lines of writing were written in the sky inside the cage. Everything in the cage can read it easily and clearly.

The first line tells about the explanation of the contract they will all make with it. The contract they were going to make was a territory-sharing contract between beasts and humans. Where humans will have a quarter of Dongwu Island and wild animals will control two-quarters. Then, the rest of the territory will become a free territory, where humans and beasts are freed to roam and do as they please.

Weng Ying Luan did this so that humans could still conduct a hunt to meet their needs, as well as wild beasts.

Furthermore, regarding some established rules, ferocious beasts and humans were forbidden to invade each other's territory in any form. Only in free areas are they allowed to attack each other.

And there is also an additional rule that the human kingdom is prohibited from performing conscription to all minors or even those who are old enough. Unless they agree voluntarily, children of sufficient age are allowed to participate in the royal conscription.

The contract was actually quite simple for the Fire Lion King, but it was different from those ferocious beasts. They cursed and roared back after reading the content contract. Clearly they were the one who was harmed in the contract. The territory they control is more than three-quarters of Dongwu Island, but will it be two-thirds? How could they agree.

Moreover, they were not the leaders of the beasts.

"I.. agreed to it," said the Fire Lion King.

Weng Ying Luan smiled slightly. He then looked out of the cage and turned to five different points before then speaking, "Then what about the five of you?! Do you agree to this contract?"

From outside the confinement, at five different points, a terrifying aura of existence came out and enveloped the entire region of Dongwu Island. Five different consciousnesses immediately gathered at the same point, which was where the confinement that Weng Ying Luan had made was located.

"How dare you make such a contract! You dreamt that we agreed!"

"Based on a brat of brash humans, confining my children to threaten us into making such a contract, do you think it will work? You're wrong!"

"We're not human beings like you who will fall into your bullshit trap!"

"Take my children out now, before I come to that place and destroy you!"

"Son, let go of the cage. You'll regret your own actions."

Five different sounds echoed and made Weng Ying Luan's ears become a little sore. The five voices came from the five ferocious beasts with strength in the 5th stage Soul Unification realm. They had been watching over Weng Ying Luan's actions from the very beginning, yet chose to see what the young man's plan was.

Hearing their words, Ying Luan simply kept silent. He then snapped his finger and five strange materials floated on it. The five consciousnesses were silent at the five materials released by Weng Ying Luan.

Inwardly Ying Luan chuckled at the sight of those who were now silent not speaking as before.

"I'm not asking you to make a contract without any reward. If you want to make that contract with those humans who live on this island, I will give each of you two materials you need to level up. Or something that can increase your age. How about that?"

The offer offered by Weng Ying Luan could be considered an insult by most people, however, it was different from the ferocious beasts and people who did need something like that offered by Weng Ying Luan. They will gladly accept it.

"..... okay, but I don't need anything that adds to my age, I just need that mineral."

"Give me that Soul Power Essence 2, then I will make the contract!"

"The Heart of a 100-year-old tree! Give me 3 and we can make the deal!"

"Hey, I need the Soul Power Essence as well, you have more than two right?!"

"....Cih, I just need something that can add to my age of at least fifty years, if you have her say it right now."

The five ferocious beasts managed to get persuaded very easily. Weng Ying Luan laughed with satisfaction in her heart. In fact, humans and wild animals have a way of thinking that is not much different. They will do anything for profit.

"Hahaha! I got all that, I'll give it to you!"

Weng Ying Luan's hand swung into the air, and everything the five ferocious beasts wanted floated in the air Quickly, the five beast consciousnesses pulled the things they needed out of Weng Ying Luan's confinement easily.

Before long, some Soul Power immediately flowed into the confinement of Weng Ying Luan's creation.

Seeing that, Weng Ying Luan immediately grabbed him and tied him into one. He then looked towards the Fire Lion King. The Fire Lion King knew the intent of the gaze, reluctantly giving some of his soul power to Weng Ying Luan as well.

Mysteriously, several golden patterns appeared in the air, then fusing the soul power into one unit, which then very quickly melted in the air, disappearing.

"This way, the contract is made. You are now free" said Ying Luan.

He snapped his finger, and the cage he had made disappeared. The pressure that suppressed the ferocious beasts and the ferocious beasts also disappeared along with Weng Ying Luan who was reabsorbing her Soul Power.

Without needing to be told, the ferocious beasts immediately fled as far away from the place as possible. Their leader had given the signal to retreat from the territory signaled by them.

Now humans on Dongwu Island get the right of a quarter of Dongwu Island. The ferocious beasts gained half the territory of Dongwu Island, and the rest was free territory, according to the contract made.

They would not be able to break it because the soul contract made would instantly make the one breaking dead.

"Because the problem is over, now tell me. How do I get off this island."

Weng Ying Luan's eyes stared at the Fire Lion King who was sitting quietly on the ground feeling empty. He turned his head and looked at Weng Ying Luan's two eyes for a moment before sighing.

"Where are you going? As I said, this island is far apart from other islands, except for neighboring islands that are much smaller than Dongwu Island" the Fire Lion King said. He no longer cared, all the wars he and his ancestors fought were now over, he did not know what to do.

"I want to go home, do you know about Black Sand Island?"

"Never heard of the island at all. But if you want, I can help you get to the Main Plain, there you can more easily find out information about where you live, maybe."

"Mainland? I seem to have heard of it..mmmm, ah right! It was a place that was said to be the place of real Martial Practitioners! There's not much I know about that place, but it seems like it's a fun place. Then let's go there, I want to see how the Mainland is."
