Douluo: Twins of Fate

Chapter 157 Everyone takes a step back

"Investigation?"

Moon frowned slightly and asked, "What are you investigating? Are you going to start another beast tide?"

The Bear King snorted coldly, "Human, don't use your dirty heart to speculate about us! If we really want to stir up a beast tide, would you still be here to talk to us?"

Biji explained to Moon from the side, "Some time ago, one of your human Ultimate Douluo showed his presence outside the Star Dou Great Forest! Since that day, we have increased our patrols throughout the Star Dou Great Forest. The one Taotie Douluo wanted to kill was a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear sent by the Bear Lord."

After hearing Brigitte's explanation, Moon En showed a look of sudden enlightenment. It turned out that the incident that happened to Long Xiaoyao led to what happened today!

Moon then said to Di Tian and the others, "That was just a misunderstanding. Humans didn't intend to attack the Star Dou Great Forest! The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear is unharmed, and Taotie Douluo fought a decisive battle with the Bear King. Both sides won. This matter ends here. Return our people to us, Di Tian."

Di Tian shook his head and said, "You can't just go ahead and do that. We won't agree."

Seeing Di Tian say this, Song Lao and Moon En frowned. Moon En asked, "How does the Beast God want to end this matter?"

Di Tian looked at Moon calmly and stated his request: "I think it's time for us to revise the terms of the contract. No one above the rank of Titled Douluo can enter the Star Dou Great Forest without an invitation from my soul beast! At the same time, I want you Shrek people to swear a soul oath and not break your promise!"

"absurd!"

Elder Song couldn't help but curse, "Your request is too much! If we really do as you ask, won't you soul beasts be able to do whatever you want in the future, and we won't even be able to interfere? This is too unfair to us. I will never agree to it! And neither will anyone else in Shrek!"

Moon also nodded in agreement with Elder Song's opinion. He said to Di Tian, "This request is indeed a bit excessive, Beast God! If one day you beasts plot something in the Star Dou Great Forest, and we are unable to interfere because of the soul oath, wouldn't that be irresponsible to humanity?"

The Bear King snorted coldly, "Do you think we're like you humans, constantly playing tricks and schemes? That's the behavior of weaklings!"

Mr. Bear, with his brain full of muscles, never wants to play any tricks, he just starts fighting!

Moon ignored Xiong Jun's words. He looked at Di Tian, shook his head, and said, "Di Tian, for the safety of the academy and humanity, we will not agree to your conditions. This is our bottom line."

"Even if your people are in my hands?" Di Tian glanced at Jiang Qingtong and Xiao Xiao and asked back.

Moon paused for a moment, then said, "Even if our people are in your hands! I'm sorry, children, for the safety of mankind, I..."

Moon's eyes even brimmed with tears as he spoke the second half of his words, deeply moving Xiao Xiao. She looked at Moon with tears in her eyes, shook her head, and said, "I understand! Mr. Mu! As Shrek's students, for the sake of humanity, our personal safety is not important."

But because they were far away, Moon couldn't hear Xiaoxiao's voice. He could only see that Xiaoxiao seemed to be crying. His heart sank and he felt depressed again. He coughed suddenly a few times.

"Mr. Mu, take care of yourself." Seeing Moon En like this, Mr. Song frowned slightly.

Di Tian looked at Jiang Qingtong and Xiao Xiao, pretending to be in deep thought before saying to Moon En, "Then let's both take a step back, Moon En. Anyone with a 100,000-year spirit ring is forbidden from entering the Star Dou Great Forest. Except for necessary patrols, spirit beasts over 10,000 years old will not appear in the outer areas."

These conditions were entirely in favor of the spirit beasts and hardly a compromise. However, this would at least allow some of Shrek Academy's Titled Douluo to enter and exit the Star Dou Great Forest, which on the surface seemed like no major problem. In this era, Titled Douluo possessing 100,000-year spirit rings were still a minority.

Moreover, even a Titled Douluo without a 100,000-year spirit ring should be able to protect himself in the Star Dou Great Forest after being equipped with sufficient spirit guides. Even if he encounters a ferocious beast, as long as it is not Di Tian or Xiong Jun, he can escape unscathed.

After considering these factors, Moon slowly nodded and said, "We agree to this condition."

Then, Moon made a soul oath. Although Mr. Song was extremely reluctant, he had no other choice. The situation was stronger than him, so he could only bow his head.

After sensing the soul oath was established, Di Tian asked Bi Ji to send Jiang Qingtong and Xiao Xiao over. Watching the two being led away by Bi Ji, Xiong Jun wanted to take action, but a look from Di Tian suppressed all his thoughts.

The King of Ten Thousand Demons standing aside watched as the Bear King’s arrogance was extinguished by Emperor Tian, with a smile on his elegant and charming face.

Elder Song looked at the three people walking towards them nervously. Moon comforted her and said, "Emerald Swan Biji has a very good reputation. Don't be nervous, lest something unexpected happen."

Old Song nodded, his eyes fixed on the three people approaching, not daring to relax at all.

Brigitte came up to the two of them, nodded to them, and said, "We've returned the people to you. Don't worry, they're here with us, and they haven't suffered any harm!"

After Biji finished saying this, Xiaoxiao and Jiang Qingtong ran from behind her to Moon and Old Song. Xiaoxiao even hugged Old Song's arm and started crying.

She and Mr. Song had not had a close relationship in the academy before, and they had not even met a few times, but this time she was so scared that she didn't care about anything else.

Jiang Qingtong was not very panicked, but in order to prevent Moon and the others from suspecting anything, she also made a frightened expression.

"Thank you very much." Moon thanked Brigitte.

"I hope you can abide by the contract." Brigitte looked at Moon, nodded in greeting, then turned and returned to Di Tian.

The passage in front of both parties was gradually covered by the trees on both sides and disappeared. Moon took Old Song, Jiang Qingtong and Xiao Xiao back to Shrek Academy.

In the forest, the Bear King, with a serious expression, angrily addressed Di Tian, "Di Tian! Why are you still making a contract with humans? Do they trust you so easily? How long can this contract bind them? Aside from that human, I'm afraid no one else would make a soul oath!"

"Of course I understand this." Di Tian said to Xiong Jun calmly.

Hearing this, Xiong Jun frowned and asked, "Then why are you still..."

Di Tian looked at him and said slowly, "This is what the master meant! That human's vitality is declining, and he doesn't have much time left. There's no need for us to quarrel with him now. Just put on a show and send those two little girls back."

Xiong Jun asked again: "Why do you want to send them back?"
