When Beauty Meets Beasts-Chapter 855 Reduced

Poor Clement had been led away by his biological father before he could react.

For this, he was so angry that he lost his temper on the way and tried to escape back to Rock City.

Although this child was strong, in terms of intelligence and schemes, he was definitely inferior to Sang Ye, who had lived for many years.

His several escape attempts ended in failure.

The father and son fought with each other on the way to the demons. Every day was extremely lively.

The originally vibrant family was now only left with Bai Di, Xue Ling, and Eggy.

The family of four stayed in the 10,000 Beast Temple. Fortunately, Eggy was lively and active. She chattered every day, so the 10,000 Beast Temple was still quite lively and did not become especially deserted.

Huanhuan looked at her cute daughter, and the sadness in her heart faded a little.

She perked up. This was not the time to be disappointed. The entire beast continent was being attacked by demons and monsters. Every day, countless lives died under their claws.

She had to think of a way to chase them all out of the beast continent as soon as possible!

Huanhuan asked, "Where's Wu Huo?"

Speaking of this, Xue Ling was angry. "I locked him in the temple. I didn't expect him to disappear overnight."

"No one in the entire 10,000 Beast Temple noticed?"

The corners of Xue Ling's mouth curled up as he sneered. "I don't know if anyone discovered it, but I know that there must be a traitor hiding in this temple. Otherwise, Wu Huo wouldn't have escaped without anyone noticing in just one night."

As the noblest place on the beast continent, the 10,000 Beast Temple was almost the center of power. It was normal for spies from other forces to appear.

Huanhuan was not surprised at all. "So be it. After peace is restored on the beast continent, we'll deal with Dark Moon City and those spies."

She went to the top of the mountain again and contacted the altars of three medium-sized beast cities through the statue at the altar. She was prepared to gather the three high priests and hold a council to discuss how to resist the enemy.

First, Dong Ya and the second elder responded. Not long after, Wu Huo's voice appeared at the meeting.

Huanhuan's tone was emotionless. "I didn't expect you to return to Dark Moon City so quickly. You're really fast."

Wu Huo said, "If I wasn't fast enough, I might never be able to leave."

"What you're saying is interesting. Could it be that someone in the City of 10,000 Beasts wants to harm you?"

"Someone did want to harm me. Otherwise, why would my residence suddenly catch fire for no reason?"

"That might be retribution."

"What retribution? I don't understand you."

...

The two of them fought back and forth. Even though they could only hear the sounds, Dong Ya and the second elder could hear the strong smell of gunpowder in their conversation.

Huanhuan said slowly, "Cut the crap. The beast continent is at stake here. We have to work together to survive this crisis! I contacted you this time because I hope you can help me think of a way to resist the enemy. Tell me what you think."

Dong Ya and the second elder said in unison, "We'll listen to Lady Huanhuan's arrangements!"

They stood firmly on Huanhuan's side.

Only Wu Huo raised a different opinion.

"This time, the demons and monsters have joined forces. They're aggressive, and almost no living thing is left behind wherever they go. If we fight them head-on, we might suffer heavy casualties, so I suggest we discuss with them and see if we can make peace?"

Huanhuan smiled, but there was no warmth in her eyes. "How do you want to make peace?"

"The demons and monsters are invading the beast continent just for food. Our beast continent has so many people and livestock. We'll choose a portion of the beasts and send them over as livestock as compensation. We'll also guarantee to give them food every year in the future. I believe they'll be willing to stop the invasion."

"It's a good idea. It can minimize casualties."

Dong Ya wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he didn't.

As for the second elder, he was already terrified. He was quiet and didn't say anything, pretending to be invisible.

Wu Huo said, "The prophet is indeed kind!"

Huanhuan said, "You're the one who made this suggestion. You're definitely the kindest person."

"You flatter me, Lady Prophet."

"I'm not praising you casually. I really admire you. Since you're the one who suggested it, I'll first pick out 500 beasts from Dark Moon City and give them to the demons and monsters as an apology and offer to make peace. What do you think?"

The atmosphere froze.

Wu Huo lowered his voice and said in a very bad tone, "Our Dark Moon City only has a total of more than a thousand people. You want to give away 500 beasts just like that. Are you forcing our Dark Moon City to a dead end?"

"You can't say that. You were the one who suggested sacrificing the beasts as compensation. I was just following your instructions. In the future, even if the people of Dark Moon City want someone to hate, they can only hate you."

"You're deliberately making things difficult for me!"

"You're thinking too much. I never make things difficult for anyone."

Wu Huo sneered. "Since you're unwilling to give our Dark Moon City a way out, I don't have to waste my breath on you. I'll leave first."

As soon as he finished speaking, the connection with the altar of the Dark Moon Temple was forcefully severed.

Dong Ya was furious. "Who does that Wu Huan think he is? How dare he speak to Lady Huanhuan in that tone?!"

The second elder echoed, "That's right. How dare he insult the prophet? I'll remove him from his position later. Let's see how arrogant he can be!"

Huanhuan ignored Wu Huo, who had left, and continued to discuss strategies to resist the enemy with Dong Ya and the second elder.

To everyone's surprise, the next day, the altar of the Dark Moon Temple was destroyed.

Under the lead of the high priest, Wu Huo, the entire Dark Moon City turned to the alliance between the demons and monsters.

This was the first time beasts had submitted to monsters and demons on a large scale.

When Huanhuan found out about this, she laughed in anger.

"Let's not talk about the demons for now. The demons devour the beasts as food, yet Wu Huo brought the beasts of Dark Moon City to join the demons. Isn't he afraid that his people will be eaten by the demons?"

Bai Di pondered and said, "Dark Moon City has been secretly colluding with the demons. When I went to the Dark Moon Temple to investigate Xuan Wei's whereabouts, I saw Wu Huo contact Tao Wei. Wu Huo bringing the beasts of Dark Moon City to the demons' side shouldn't be a sudden thought but a carefully planned move."

Xue Ling also said, "Losing the support of one of the three medium-grade beast cities is equivalent to losing an arm. Our strength has decreased greatly, and the enemy's strength has increased greatly. The situation is very disadvantageous to us."

Huanhuan said slowly, "At this point, we can only do our best to resist the enemy's invasion."
