Chapter 243: Suspicion
Ye Xuan’s self-deprecating remark clearly did not dispel Kong Ming’s doubts.
He looked at Ye Xuan for a while, then said to the Black Dragon King, “Black Dragon King, I think this guy is suspicious. Ye Xuan, the top genius among humans, can transform into nine divine forms, one of which is Xuanwu, identical to its current appearance.”
Upon hearing Kong Ming’s words, the Black Dragon King also turned to Ye Xuan and said, “Is it true? Could this kid be a spy?”
Upon hearing the Black Dragon King’s words, Ye Xuan said, “I don’t know who this Ye Xuan is, but I believe that humans and our beasts are enemies, and human words cannot be trusted.”
The Giant Turtle also said, “Black Dragon King, I think Xuanwu Warlord’s words make sense. Human words cannot be easily trusted. What if he is trying to sow discord and weaken our beast’s strength?”
Although the Giant Turtle had fought with Ye Xuan, it acknowledged Ye Xuan’s defense. Even though Ye Xuan was half-turtle and half-snake, it recognized Ye Xuan as part of the same clan.
The eight warlords each had their own inclinations and factions, with the Giant Turtle Warlord always fighting alone.
Now that it finally had a beast it could ally with, it naturally wanted to help Ye Xuan.
The Black Dragon King glanced at the Giant Turtle and said, “Kong Ming has already switched sides and become one of our beast allies. How could he possibly sow discord? But then again, from head to toe, does Xuanwu Warlord look anything like a human? Kong Ming, if you say he is related to humans, you must provide evidence.”
Kong Ming said slowly, “Don’t worry, I’m going to set sail. When the time comes, I will find a way to gather information about Ye Xuan.”
Ye Xuan, feeling displeased, looked at Warlord Kong Ming and said, “Black Dragon King, why do you trust a human so much?”
The Black Dragon King replied directly, “Xuanwu Warlord, let me tell you, Kong Ming has made great contributions to our East Sea beasts! Without Kong Ming, our East Sea beasts would have suffered losses. Giant Turtle, don’t you agree?”
The Giant Turtle Warlord said, “That’s true. That time, this kid did play a role.”
Ye Xuan inquired further and only then understood the truth of the matter.
Several months ago, the European beast Hellhound, along with a group of top beasts under its command, such as the Phoenix, Octopus, Cyclops, and others, arrived in the East Sea.
Under its command were the Griffin Legion and the Chimera Legion, both powerful forces that were no weaker than the East Sea beasts.
Although most of them harbored hostility towards humans, their relationships with each other were not much better, often fighting and killing each other.
The Hellhound led a group of beasts to war against the four Sea Kings of the East Sea.
After a short battle, the Hellhound realized that the East Sea beasts were not easy to deal with. It decided to apologize for its actions and pay a price, leading to both sides reconciling and forming an alliance.
Unfortunately, these European beasts communicated through calls that automatically translated into English for other beasts to understand. In contrast, the East Sea beasts communicated in various animal sounds that were translated into Chinese.
With one side being European beasts and the other being East Sea beasts, they couldn’t communicate due to the language barrier.
The Black Dragon King and the other Sea Kings couldn’t understand a word the European beasts were saying and were ready to continue the battle to drive them away.
Fortunately, Kong Ming appeared in time. Having passed the fourth class of English and possessing the ability to communicate with beasts, he successfully communicated with the European beasts.
After paying a certain price, the war between the beasts did not continue, and they shook hands, becoming allies.
Kong Ming, originally just a regular subordinate of the Black Dragon King, successfully became Warlord Kong Ming thanks to this incident, holding a high position under the Black Dragon King.
Upon hearing the explanations from the Giant Turtle and the Black Dragon King, Ye Xuan also felt incredulous.
He couldn’t help but think back to when he had just been reborn and got angry at his classmates for speaking English. Now it seemed that he was too young. Learning English could indeed help communicate with beasts and save his life in critical moments!
Warlord Kong Ming was not only a capable subordinate under the Black Dragon King but also a bridge for communication between the East Sea and European beasts. If they could get rid of this guy, it would surely benefit humans greatly, right?
However, it wasn’t realistic to act now. Although the Black Dragon King wasn’t very intelligent, he was powerful. A sneak attack on Warlord Kong Ming might not succeed, and Ye Xuan’s goal had not been achieved yet. He couldn’t easily expose his identity.
Furthermore, he needed to find a way to solve his identity crisis. If Warlord Kong Ming wanted to return to the Magic City to investigate his situation, he had to find a way to deceive him.
After recounting Warlord Kong Ming’s glorious history, the Black Dragon King and the Giant Turtle prepared some beautiful pearls and gems for Warlord Kong Ming, who then left.
Shortly after, Warlord Kong Ming went ashore. His oxygen mask, the transparent jellyfish, returned to the East Sea, awaiting his next arrival.
After leaving the East Sea, Warlord Kong Ming first went home, changed his appearance, cashed in some of the treasures he had obtained in the East Sea, and then began to gather information about Ye Xuan.
At the Awakening Academy, Zhou Qiang, following Lin Xu’s orders, began to take action.
This time, the Magic City suffered bloodshed from the invasion of the East Sea beasts, and such incidents were not limited to the Magic City. Other cities also experienced similar events, and someone had to take responsibility for them.
Zhou Qiang’s abilities were particularly suitable for such dirty work. Following the list provided by Lin Xu, he went from one mastermind to another, directly taking their lives.
