Upon hearing this, the Silver Dragon King, who had initially wanted to retaliate and teach Shui Wuya a lesson, fell silent, deep in thought.
Aside from Di Tian, she had no interest in these ferocious beasts. If the Shui Clan invaded the core areas, these beasts wouldn't be able to stop them.
If the Shui Clan could take responsibility for guarding the seal, it would at least prevent disturbances from outside forces.
In this light, despite losing some face, she would ultimately gain more.
What's face worth compared to this?
She just hoped the Shui Clan would be considerate and not trouble her again for ten thousand years.
Finally, the Silver Dragon King sighed and agreed to Shui Wuya's request. "Alright, I agree. The ferocious beasts of the Star Dou Forest will be under your command from now on."
"But you must ensure you keep your word."
The Silver Dragon King's voice was stern.
"I promise."
Shui Wuya nodded solemnly, indicating his commitment.
Soon, the Silver Dragon King transformed into a beam of light and returned to her seal.
The oppressive presence that had enveloped the Star Dou Forest finally disappeared.
With the Silver Dragon King's pressure gone, the shock on Shui Yuanchen and others' faces remained.
"Truly worthy of being the Patriarch, you've actually accomplished it!"
Everyone looked at Shui Wuya as if they had survived a calamity, filled with immense respect and admiration.
The leaders of the Feng, Huo, and Lei clans were particularly astonished.
Before the Silver Dragon King, they had not dared to speak.
Shui Wuya, however, had maintained his composure and secured a tremendous advantage through the agreement with the Silver Dragon King.
The disparity between him and the other clan leaders was stark, evoking a sense of shame.
Meanwhile, the ferocious beasts were all visibly distressed.
Under their leader's decision, they had been sold off to Shui Wuya.
What would their future hold?
The Bear King faced this sudden change with obvious anger.
It seemed that relying on heaven and earth was less effective than relying on oneself!
"Want me to submit? Dream on!"
"Ferocious beasts will never be slaves!"
In his rage, the Bear King charged at Shui Wuya with a violent tremor like a mountain, a fierce aura blazing around him.
His giant hand swung like a hammer, whipping up a whirlwind as it struck fiercely towards Shui Wuya.
However, just as he charged, the Ten Thousand Demon King cast a powerful spell.
Concentrating black energy, he lightly tapped his finger, and a beam of black light enveloped the Bear King's body.
The Bear King struggled fiercely but to no avail, immobilized and bound.
"Let me go!"
The Bear King roared, his eyes filled with anger and desperation.
But no matter how hard he tried, the spell cast by the Ten Thousand Demon King was incredibly solid and impenetrable.
The Ten Thousand Demon King observed the restrained Bear King coldly and reprimanded him telepathically, "You fool, even the master fears Shui Wuya, and you dare to provoke him? Know your place and don't make trouble!
If you anger Shui Wuya, our entire ferocious beast clan will be in danger!"
Then, mustering his courage, the Ten Thousand Demon King knelt before Shui Wuya and said quietly, "Esteemed Patriarch, the offense was an accident. Please forgive us."
Shui Wuya merely glanced at him without speaking.
Seeing Shui Wuya's indifference, the Ten Thousand Demon King finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment.
Seeing the fate of the Bear King, the ferocious beasts of the Star Dou Forest realized a harsh truth: if they wanted to survive, they had no choice but to submit to the Shui Clan!
Only by aligning themselves with a powerful force could they ensure the safety of their lives and families.
After overcoming their mental barriers, they declared:
"We are willing to serve the Shui Clan!"
Before Shui Wuya, one enormous ferocious beast after another knelt, expressing their willingness to submit.
Shui Wuya smiled slightly and accepted their allegiance with pleasure. He encouraged them, saying, "You have made the right choice. As long as you serve faithfully, the Shui Clan will treat you with sincerity."
The beasts, hearing Shui Wuya's words, felt a glimmer of hope.
Shui Wuya's ability to make even the Silver Dragon King wary suggested he was extraordinary. Serving him didn't seem too humiliating after all.
The storm had finally settled.
"Come."
Di Tian slowly knelt before Shui Wuyou, his body trembling slightly. He knew this was his only choice.
Watching this scene, Biji's cries were heart-wrenching and mournful.
Shui Wuya extended his hand and gently stroked Di Tian's head.
As warm energy flowed from his hand, Di Tian's body began to glow faintly, and mysterious runes slowly appeared on his surface.
A powerful force surged into Di Tian, and gradually, his body began to dissolve into delicate light, eventually merging completely with Shui Wuya's body.
Di Tian's soul awoke within Shui Wuya, officially becoming his soul beast!
With the soul entering Shui Wuya's body, a tremendous surge of energy filled him, and profound light flickered around him, as if a king had descended.
Shui Wuya's strength surpassed level 96, exuding an imposing aura akin to a divine being.
Feeling the immense soul power within him, Shui Wuya's eyes sparkled with delight.
"Indeed, after becoming a Titled Douluo, each step is a significant leap."
This breakthrough greatly increased his strength.
Now, Shui Wuya possessed demigod-level strength even in basic attacks, becoming a true powerhouse.
The Feng, Huo, and Lei clan leaders, sensing Shui Wuya's enhanced power, rushed forward to congratulate him.
The Feng Clan Leader, dressed in green, approached Shui Wuya with admiration. "Congratulations, Chief Shui. You've successfully subdued such a powerful soul beast. Your rapid growth makes us old-timers feel ashamed."
The Huo Clan Leader also expressed his congratulations. "Chief Shui, you are truly a model for us all!"
The Lei Clan Leader added, "Chief Shui, your performance today in the face of danger is admirable. Thank you for saving the continent!"
Shui Wuya, smiling at the leaders' congratulations, replied, "You honor me. If our three clans unite and face future challenges together, we will surely be victorious!"
"Master Di Tian…" Biji called out tremulously, but could only see Shui Wuya and not her beloved Beast King.
Other ferocious beasts also looked dejected. Di Tian, once their leader, had now become Shui Wuya's soul beast. This sudden turn of events left them feeling somber.
Seeing this, Shui Wuya gently waved his hand. A faint, ethereal light emanated from him, forming a ghostly figure—the manifestation of Di Tian's soul!
Di Tian's soul hovered in the air, radiating a soft golden light. He observed his soul state, feeling a mix of disbelief.
"So this is my soul state?"
Di Tian couldn't help but marvel.
He had expected his consciousness to vanish with his physical form, but it had surprisingly been preserved!
Shui Wuya smiled at Di Tian, understanding his feelings. He spoke softly, "Rest assured, Di Tian. Your consciousness will not disappear. You can exist freely in this soul state."
Hearing Shui Wuyou's reassurance, Di Tian felt some comfort. He turned to Biji and gently said, "Biji, don't be sad. Although I've lost my physical form, my consciousness remains. You need to stay strong."
Biji, hearing Di Tian's voice, had her tears gradually subside.
"Master Di Tian, I will."
Seeing this, the ferocious beasts were left in awe and disbelief.
