Clearly, this is a terrifying existence capable of bringing about an apocalypse. Such crucial news is of utmost importance to the Alliance.
Only if we know this news in advance, can the Alliance prepare early and make appropriate arrangements to potentially deal with the original owner of the Giant Finger.
Otherwise, once the owner appears, without any readiness, the consequences would be abhorrent, even for the great beings at the peak of the Fifth Realm, it's too much to bear.
"We regret?"
Xiao Mu's words clearly left an impact, several Beast Race mutants exchanged glances.
They suspected that Xiao Mu was possibly boasting but his expression was earnest, no signs of exaggeration visible.
Of course, some Beast Race mutants didn't believe Xiao Mu's words, for instance, Shi Weiyuan was one of them.
"Haha!"
Shi Weiyuan suddenly burst into laughter, looking at Xiao Mu with a face full of disdain, "Such blatant boasting. You are nothing more than a human who just broke through not many days ago. You are not qualified to make the Alliance regret."
With this, he turned to Perfected, "Perfected, make a decision. This human is clearly exaggerating to intimidate us. Report it immediately, I don't believe that a human who has recently mutated has the qualification to make the Alliance regret. Who does he think he is? The Human Emperor?"
Perfected was swayed and quickly came to his senses, his face couldn't help but turn gloomier.
Yes, this human just broke through the Fourth Realm, why should he be able to make the Alliance regret?
With a cold sneer, he fixed his gaze onto Xiao Mu, "I was almost taken in by you, humans are indeed all of low character. I will report you to the Alliance now, you must be banished. I want to see how capable you are that you could make me regret!"
With that, he took out his cellphone with a gloomy expression to dial the number.
Within the Alliance, there are not only groups and team leaders, there are also higher-ups above the team leaders, one layer piled upon another, reporting upwards one after another, ultimately to the Alliance's overall leader.
Xiao Mu sneered, not at all intimidated by Xiao Mu, instead beckoning his hand, saying, "Please."
Letting the opponent report without any intention of stopping him.
The threat of Perfected means nothing to him, if he's pushed too hard, he'll release the Giant Finger and let the Alliance be troubled.
Perfected was about to dial the number with an expressionless face.
"Hold on!"
_Stone Soul_, who had attained Dao, suddenly stood up. His appearance was that of a middle-aged man and his power was in the mid-stage of the Fourth Realm, not to be underestimated.
He immediately stopped Perfected from dialing, and suggested, "Perfected, I propose we first listen to Mr. Xiao's explanations, then we can report to the Alliance later."
"If there is really a big issue and we miss it, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear the mistake."
He is always cautious in his actions and harbors no hostility towards humans. From a neutral standpoint, his analysis seemed fair.
Upon hearing this, Perfected couldn't help but feel stunned.
Although he harbors animosity towards humans, he places considerable weight on the words of Stone Soul, a mutant known for his prudence.
Stone Soul was right. Why not listen to Xiao Mu's explanation first? What if something big really happens and it's delayed because of him?
"Xiao Mu, you can explain now."
He put down his cellphone, looked at Xiao Mu, and gave an order.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Mu sneered.
The opponent wanted to report him, then let them report; wanted him to explain, let him explain. Who did they take him for?
"Hehe!"
He sneered, "Didn't Perfected want to report me? Please go ahead."
Perfected's face immediately darkened, he didn't expect Xiao Mu to be indifferent to his tactics. For a moment, he was struck dumb, neither advancing nor retreating.
With cellphone in hand, he wanted to report several times, but stopped each time, unable to reach a decision.
Stone Soul's words reminded him. He was worried about 'what if.'
"Mr. Xiao."
Seeing this, Stone Soul suddenly bowed his hands towards Xiao Mu.
"You are?"
Xiao Mu knew from his appearance that Stone Soul was not from the Beast Race. Besides, Stone Soul's previous actions had also won his favor, letting him know that this was a Variant with amicable relations to humans.
"I am Stone Soul."
After introducing himself, Stone Soul then advised Xiao Mu, "Mr. Xiao, prioritize the big picture. The survival of all races in the human world rests on the Alliance's shoulders. If we delay the big issue because of a small dispute, it's just not worth it."
Xiao Mu responded politely, "It turns out to be Stone Soul, hello Mr. Stone."
In a huff, he retorted, "I am not some savage, uncivilized creature. How could I possibly not comprehend the reasoning you provided, Mr. Shi? However, every time someone sees me, they aim to belittle me; if I, Xiao Mu, swallow this insult easily, I'm afraid people will only be more audacious in the future."
"This..."
Stone Soul became at a loss for how to persuade him further.
Indeed, the fault of this situation lay on Perfected. Who asked him to try and overpower Xiao Mu when he first arrived?
Isn't the trouble on his own head now?
The Beast Race's Mutated Beings all turned sour, their faces darkening as though they were deep-fried eggplants – black and purplish.
Xiao Mu's words contained veiled insults, lumping these savage, uncivilized creatures clearly referred to all of them.
"Human, you dare insult my Beast Race!"
Perfected was as hot-tempered as a blazing flame, instantly flew into a rage.
Xiao Mu said icily, "And what if I insult you?"
"You…you infuriate me!"
Perfected was seething with anger.
He stretched his arms out, suddenly transforming them into giant hands that headed straight to grab Xiao Mu.
"Stop! Perfected, stop!"
Stone Soul and Wood Spirit simultaneously intervened. Their hands shot out together, each blocking one of Perfected's large hands.
"Stone Soul, Wood Spirit, are you aiding this human?"
Perfected's face fell, a flush of anger filled his cheeks.
Stone Soul spoke calmly, "We have no intention of favouring anyone, Perfected. We gather here for a discussion, not a fight."
"You can fight, but if it hinders serious matters, don't blame me for reporting it to the higher-ups."
Perfected grunted, forcefully suppressing his anger.
Stone Soul's threat of reporting his misconduct to the upper echelons still held a deterrence on him.
"Mr. Xiao, please speak."
Stone Soul turned to Xiao Mu.
"Ahem!"
He glanced at Stone Soul and then at the hostile gazes of the Beast Race, Xiao Mu began slowly, "Where should I start... I'll be brief. During my mission recently I encountered something tremendously dangerous, something that could even pose a threat to the entire human world."
"It took a tremendous amount of effort on my part and I even destroyed a magical implement in the process to contain it."
"This thing is not within my capacity to handle, so I brought it back to the Alliance, requesting the Alliance dispatch powerful beings to deal with it."
"Oh!"
Stone Soul was taken aback upon hearing this. Xiao Mu's statement was extremely serious, which inevitably forced him to consider it seriously. He quickly asked, "May I know what kind of dangerous thing you encountered that could even threaten the entire human world? Could it be possible to show us?"
"Hehe!"
Shi Weiyuan sneered loudly, full of disdain, "How powerful can something subdued by a mere human in the early stage be?"
A number of Beast Race Mutant Beings couldn't help but feel relieved after hearing his words.
Shi Weiyuan made sense. How dangerous could anything subdued by a human at the early stage be?
Perfected even felt that he had been overly cautious, to be intimidated by Xiao Mu's words and treat them seriously.
As soon as Shi Weiyuan's words finished, his face immediately displayed another wave of anger.
I was actually played by a human!
Xiao Mu didn't care for these Beast Race beings' comments; however, Stone Soul's request made him look serious. He looked around hesitantly and asked, "Here?"
"What? Mr. Xiao, do you have constraints?"
Stone Soul asked in surprise.
Xiao Mu nodded seriously, "That thing is overwhelmingly powerful, I worry that as soon as I bring it out, it will cause substantial damage."
"Human, stop boasting, what kind of damage can a creature that a beginner-stage human could vanquish do to us? Bring it out! I, Shi Weiyuan, am willing to catch it personally. I want to see how your so-called terrifying creature can possibly hurt me."
Shi Weiyuan's face was filled with scorn, he had obviously not taken Xiao Mu's prior words seriously at all.
