Ye Xuan shifted his consciousness. Then he found he could transfer the Nether Spelling Soul Seal bound to the illusionary Mark of Gods to any of his beasts.

“Can I transfer it to a clone?”

Then he shifted his consciousness.

He cloned the Spiritual Oceanic White Jiao in the World of Sea right away.

However, he found one thing as he experimented with it.

It was probably because he had no Seed of Beasts as the medium.

The Nether Spelling Soul Seal could not be transferred to the beast clone he had created.

“So, who will take the Nether Spelling Soul Seal for me?”

His beasts emerged in Ye Xuan’s head one after another.

The Spiritual Oceanic White Jiao was so nice to him. He was sure it would not mind…

However, Ye Xuan vetoed it as soon as the thought came up.

The current Spiritual Oceanic White Jiao was his number one combat power.

He could choose any beast but the Spiritual Oceanic White Jiao.

“So…”

In the end, Ye Xuan shifted his consciousness to the Evil Fiery Red Luan, which was preening itself on an ancient tree at the center of its world.

Except for the Spiritual Oceanic White Jiao, this was the newest beast he had.

Of course, there was the Sacred Divine Wood, too.

But the Sacred Divine Wood would achieve the peak Gold level very soon.

So, he could not use it for this purpose, either.

Ye Xuan transferred the Nether Spelling Soul Seal to the Evil Fiery Red Luan after thinking.

He had to do it.

Because although the illusionary Mark of Gods could take all soul attacks for him.

It would be broken as long as the soul attack was a little bit more powerful.

As it got broken, the Nether Spelling Soul Seal would disappear, too.

However, Ye Xuan was paying extra attention so that the Nether Spelling Soul Seal would not damage.

He would fight against whoever wanted to rob him of it.

He would in no way allow it to disappear.

“I think you are one of us from now on. What do you say?”

At this moment, Mo Polun knew from the Nether Spelling Soul Crow that it had accomplished its task.

He asked Ye Xuan with a smile.

“I don’t think so.”

Closing his fists, Ye Xuan looked his eyes could spit sparks. “The Nether Spelling Soul Seal can only control a person’s life or death. But if you want to use that to control me, you are underestimating me!”

“Yeah?”

Mo Polun threw Ye Xuan a look in surprise. He said in an icy voice, “Didn’t you just say you agree to the vision of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets?”

“Yes, I do. But do you think I will have a good feeling for you after what you did to me?” Standing there straight, Ye Xuan looked at Mo Polun, neither humble nor arrogant.

He had taken what he had to take.

Next, he would try everything he could to gain something from Mo Polun.

“Peace can never be achieved without suppression. To promote the ideal of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets, water and fire must be involved.”

Mo Polun threw Ye Xuan an indifferent look. “You are very talented. That’s why I didn’t kill you. Instead, I’m offering you this opportunity.”

“And I’m not just offering you this opportunity. It’s also an opportunity for the Xia, for your parents.”

Mo Polun paused here.

A cold light flashed across the third eye of his. Staring at Ye Xuan, he said, “How long do you think the Xia can hold on if you antagonize the Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets?”

“It will be different if you join us.”

“If you join us, even if the Xia remains stubborn and never gives up fighting against us, I don’t mind giving you face when it’s eliminated. I’ll let some of your countrymen go on living.”

Ye Xuan put on a serious look. He seemed to struggle.

“How long will you need to eliminate the Xia?” He looked up at Mo Polun a few minutes later.

“The forces of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets is scattered now. We don’t have enough forces to do that for now. But even so, in at most a year, the Xia will absolutely be eliminated!”

Mo Polun looked extremely confident.

“One year?”

Ye Xuan went into silence. A little while later, he looked up at Mo Polun. He said, “Do you think I can become a Challenger-level Beast Tamer in one year?”

“You want to achieve the Challenger level in one year?”

Mo Polun raised his eyebrow.

He thought Ye Xuan was overconfident.

“I think I can!”

However, Ye Xuan said confidently, “You will try your best to help me cultivate. Give me one year. I will achieve the Challenger level in one year and get a voice in the Xia in one year.”

“By then I will figure out a way to lead the Xia to join the Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets.”

“In this way, no one needs to die, and you will have the Xia. What do you think?”

Mo Polun gazed at Ye Xuan. “Are you sure you can achieve the Challenger level in one year?”

“I can contract with two beasts every time I level up. Have you seen anyone else like me?” Ye Xuan asked, “I guess you know for how long I have been cultivating.”

“Despite how short it is, I’m already a Gold-level Beast Tamer.”

“I said I would achieve the Platinum level in two months, but to be honest, I don’t think it will take me so long.”

“As to the Challenger level, it will take me one year. It can’t be longer than a year!”

“Interesting.”

Mo Polun was intrigued by Ye Xuan’s speech. He threw Ye Xuan a look. “Looks the Xia matters a lot to you.”

Ye Xuan turned pale.

But he kept staring at Mo Polun. He did not speak.

“I planned to recruit you as the Son of Stars of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets on the Cerulean Planet. But I don’t think you will agree.”

Looking at Ye Xuan, Mo Polun asked in a plain voice.

“You want me to be your Son of Stars?”

Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes. “If I become your Son of Stars, what will my parents, my teachers, and my friends in the Xia think of me?”

“You think I will be regarded as a role model if I do that? No. The whole world will accuse me of treason.”

“Those who hate you now will hate you more!”

“You have a silver tongue.”

Mo Polun paused. He said after a thought, “Okay. Now that you want to go back to the Xia, I will let you go back. But remember, you must come back here if you haven’t achieved the Platinum level by the time you claimed you would.”

“If you haven’t achieved the Challenger level in one year, you must come back here, too.”

“And, if you feel any pain in your soul, however slight it is, you must come back immediately. The pain I’m talking about is like this.”

He looked at the Nether Spelling Soul Crow on his shoulder.

As Mo Polun moved, Ye Xuan instantly sensed the Evil Fiery Red Luan, preening itself in its Beast Lair, trembled out of the blue.

Seeing the Evil Fiery Red Luan’s reaction, Ye Xuan knitted his brows together right away.

A few seconds later, when the Evil Fiery Red Luan had gone back to normal, he also smoothened his brows.

“I see!”

He said right away in a low deep voice.

“Well, so you can stay here these days. I’ll have you sent back in a few days.”

Mo Polun gazed at Ye Xuan. Then he left with Gu Bajie.

“Sir.”

Gu Bajie said to Mo Polun through voice transmission when they had left the palace, “It seems to me that Ye Xuan is deeply attached to the Xia. And it is way too exaggerated that he claims he will achieve the Challenger level in one year.”

“Even if he really becomes a Challenger-level Beast Tamer, I’m afraid he won’t pledge allegiance to us on behalf of the Xia.”

“Yeah, I’ve certainly seen that, too.”

Mo Polun nodded indifferently. He said to Gu Bajie, “That’s why I want him to stay here for a few days. You should take advantage of these days to release the news that he is visiting us here.”

“Won’t we send him back to the Xia?”

Gu Bajie was struck dumb.

“Why not?”

Mo Polun showed a cold smile. “But we will release some news when he leaves. We’ll say that we sincerely asked him to join the Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets, but he refused us.”

“We Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets think highly of talents, so we don’t bear to see him die here, and we send him back to the Xia because of that. However, we will always be happy to have him in the Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets.”

“If we release news like that, he will be treated differently in the Xia when he goes back.”

“When he learns how cold the world is, we’ll use some more tricks to make him pledge allegiance to us.”

Mo Polun thought highly of Ye Xuan.

However, just like Ye Xuan said, his Nether Spelling Soul Seal could only control a person’s life or death.

But it could not control what a person thought.

In such circumstances, if Ye Xuan loved the Xia so much, it would be hardly possible for him to follow Mo Polun’s orders.

That was why Mo Polun had developed such a plan.

If Xia did not bite the bait, he would have other ways to cause Ye Xuan trouble.

So that Ye Xuan would have to go back to him.

“That’s brilliant, Sir!”

Gu Bajie’s eyes lit up immediately.

But then he said with hesitation, “But I hope the Xia won’t house arrest Ye Xuan.”

“I’m sure he will be placed under surveillance, but they won’t house arrest the number one genius of the country.”

Mo Polun said decisively.

He was very sure of his inference.

And in his opinion, to take the Xia down was certainly of importance.

But to get Ye Xuan’s loyalty was of more importance!

Ye Xuan was more important than the whole Xia!

After all, with Ye Xuan’s talent, it was a sure thing that he would surpass the Challenger level and achieve the Legend level.

If Ye Xuan could become a Legend-level Beast Tamer, he would have a bigger say in the whole Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets.

And he would become one of the real powerhouses.

Therefore, if the Xia really house arrested Ye Xuan, he would destroy the Xia just to save Ye Xuan. In that case, plus he could control Ye Xuan’s life or death, would Ye Xuan have another choice?

And there was another important reason that he allowed Ye Xuan to go back to the Xia.

He was sure that no one could detect the Nether Spelling Soul Seal he had used on Ye Xuan.

Because his Nether Spelling Soul Crow was a two-star Challenger, not just a one-star one.

And this technique of its had already upgraded.

He believed no one below the Legend level would be able to detect that.

Otherwise, if it was so easy to be detected, people would find out that Ye Xuan was under the seal when he went back, and he would absolutely be killed right away.

That was against Mo Polun’s interest.

It was fair to say that he had calculated everything.

…

“He wants me to stay here for more days.”

Ye Xuan was pacing back and forth in the room when Mo Polun had left.

He could not figure out what Mo Polun was up to.

“I’ve seen Mo Polun, commander of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets on the Cerulean Planet. And I’ve got his trust. The thing is he wants me to stay here for a few more days before letting me go back to the Xia. I can’t figure out why. Do you have any thoughts?”

He sat in the chair after having thought for a while. Glancing over with his Mind Energy, he made sure no one was watching him, so he took out his cell phone and sent a message to Lin Shiru.

“You’ve gained Mo Polun’s trust? You were attacked by the Nether Spelling Soul Seal, the clan’s unique technique, but you can crack it?”

Lin Shiru replied to him as soon as she got his message.
