Chapter 4535: What’s the intention?

Translator: 549690339

Lin Yi let out a long breath and wiped away the sweat on his forehead. If this had happened a little longer, he would’ve been crushed into a pile of meat paste by now. He really did save his life from the gates of hell.

“Brat, hurry up and thank the king. Otherwise, with your suspicious identity, you’ll definitely die today!” The Vermilion Bird glared at Lin Yi coldly, barely able to hide the anger in her eyes.

The Vermillion Bird was furious not because of a nobody like Lin Yi, but because the king of the spirit beasts dared to go against it!

It should be known that this so-called new king of spirit beasts was a puppet that the Vermillion Bird had single-handedly discovered and raised. At any time and on any occasion, it had to fully follow the will of the Vermillion Bird. Its previous performance was still considered honest, but today, it suddenly interfered with its order. It could even be said that it had slapped its face in public. Was it trying to rebel?

However, what made the Vermillion Bird even angrier was that it could order the new king of spirit beasts in private, but it could not do so in public. Since the new king had taken the throne, the entire spirit beast clan, including the Vermillion Bird elder, must bow down to him and must not disobey him.

Although he was using the Emperor to command the vassals, he had to do it on the surface. Everyone could know it, but it could not be openly exposed. Otherwise, this so-called Emperor would lose his legitimacy, and the so-called using the Emperor to command the vassals would naturally be impossible to talk about.

Therefore, no matter how furious it was, the Vermilion Bird had no choice but to endure it in front of so many people. Not only did it have to endure it, but it also had to show that it was more supportive of the king of the spiritual beasts than any other spiritual beast. It was not allowed to hesitate at all.

The other spirit beasts might question the king of spirit beasts ‘every word in public, but only the Vermillion Bird had to treat it as the king’s order and carry it out to the letter. Otherwise, it would be criticized. After all, this was the master it had single-handedly supported. If it didn’t take it seriously, how could it expect others to take it seriously?

Of course, after the end of this spirit beast meet, once the door was closed, it didn’t matter how it was going to teach this King of spirit beasts a lesson. It was entirely up to its mood.

“Many thanks, my King!” Lin Yi quickly bowed and cupped his fists. At the same time, he took the chance to look at the noble being under the colorful bamboo hat, thinking the same question as all the other spirit beasts. Why did this guy suddenly help him out?

The others might not have cared, but the other party had deliberately mentioned the Great Fire Lion Clan. Could there be another meaning behind this? Although Lin Yi wasn’t a great fire Lion, it was the only two races that were closely related to him among all the spirit beasts. If there was no evidence, how could the other party be so sure that he was a member of the Great Fire Lion race?

Lin Yi didn’t know what was going on, but it was obvious that no one would explain it to him in a situation like this. The mysterious new king of spirit beasts had returned to silence after saying those words, and no one knew what it was thinking. Because of the colorful hat, even its expression and eyes couldn’t be seen, and it gave off a mysterious feeling.

If it was any other occasion, Lin Yi would really want to find out more about this new king of spirit beasts. He might get something unexpected, but that was impossible now. He couldn’t stay in this place for long. He had to leave before the Vermillion Bird and the other spirit beasts changed their minds.

The spirit beasts didn’t react to Lin Yi’s disappearance, but the Vermilion bird’s face darkened. It couldn’t understand why the puppet king it had raised would suddenly interfere in this matter. No matter how it looked at it, it was an insignificant matter.

It was just a small character in the Golden core stage. For any of the spirit beasts present, it would not be a big deal to kill him, let alone the high and mighty king of the spirit beasts. For such an insignificant character, he had specially opened his mouth, even to the extent of singing a different tune to himself and the Azure Dragon in public. What was the point of this?

Ever since the king was raised to the throne, he had always been tactful and listened to the Vermillion bird’s words. He basically never spoke, and even if he did, he would always follow the script that the Vermillion Bird had given him. Therefore, the Vermillion Bird had always been very satisfied with this.

However, the Vermilion Bird also knew that no matter who was in such a high position as the king of the spirit beasts, once it tasted the taste of power, it would definitely not be willing to be a puppet at its mercy. At a certain time, there would be all kinds of disobedient attempts and actions, which were inevitable.

The Vermilion Bird was already mentally prepared for this. However, in its opinion, even if the puppet king wanted to get rid of its control, it would definitely choose to make a sound on some important event. After all, only then would it have the opportunity to publicize the authority of the king of spiritual beasts. However, this was an insignificant matter, so why should it interfere?

Even if the Vermilion Bird had to give in in front of the public, what good would it get as the king of spirit beasts? It was estimated that only the Golden core stage spirit beast that had been released would be grateful to it, but such a small character was not even qualified to be cannon fodder. Even if it was roped in, what use would it be?

The Azure Dragon turned its head and looked at the Vermillion Bird. It was also surprised and suspicious. It avoided the eyes and ears of all the spirit beasts present and immediately connected its divine sense to the Vermillion Bird. It pointed at the king of spirit beasts and said,”What is this guy trying to do? Could it be that it wanted to take advantage of this spirit beast meet to make its presence known in front of everyone, to make everyone feel that it was a king who cared for its people and wanted to win the hearts of the people? Aren’t you too naive?”

The idea of benevolent governance might work on humans, but it was not feasible at all in the spirit beast clan, which highly advocated strength. If you were not strong enough, regardless of whether you were the king of spirit beasts who was benevolent and loved the people, those powerful spirit beasts would have bitten you long ago. You could not even think of keeping your little life!

“Perhaps. Maybe it’s just trying to use this opportunity to test us. It seems that we have to be more careful in the future …” A cold glint flashed in the Vermilion bird’s Phoenix eyes. He thought to himself,”could it be that it’s trying to do something insignificant to see how I’ll react? then, it’ll decide if it can take a step further after taking an inch and asking for a foot?” (To be continued.) ”
