Chapter 898: Chapter 903: The Final Test 18
Frankly, Gaiyin had never taken the Ten Thousands Beast Country seriously.
So he rejected the offer without a second thought.
The face of Young Master Bai Que suddenly turned unsightly, "Gaiyin, think carefully. Although you have the assistance of the Wood Immortal Mansion, the Ten Thousands Beast Country is not to be trifled with!
We have many things you don’t, such as very powerful weapons, food that can be stored until the cold season, exquisite pottery, and warm clothing. Your White Tiger Clan may be formidable, but when the cold season comes, you’ll worry about food too, right?
And aren’t you curious how the Ten Thousands Beast Country communicates with cities among the various forests? We use something called ’paper’. We write words on it and send the corresponding messages through these words. Those who don’t understand the writing can’t decipher the meaning even if they get hold of the paper."
If you are willing, I can teach you everything from preserving food for the cold season to the art of papermaking and the use of writing. Are you sure you want to make an enemy of me?"
After listening, Su Tang couldn’t help but let out a snort of laughter.
She casually picked up a tree branch, racked her brains, thought and thought, and in front of Bai Que, she wrote a sentence: "There are always people better than you, and heavens beyond the one you know."
"Young Master Bai Que, can you understand what I’ve written?"
Given the emperor’s limited knowledge, Su Tang didn’t dare to use a structurally complex and profound ancient saying but chose such a simple and straightforward sentence.
And judging by Bai Que’s shocked expression, Su Tang knew he understood.
"You..." Bai Que was too shocked to speak.
Su Tang nodded with a smiling face, "Young Master Bai Que, always remember, there are people beyond people and heavens beyond heavens. Don’t underestimate anyone, and don’t overestimate yourself.
Also, we’re not from the White Tiger Clan, we’re Taoyuan people. Everything you mentioned, we Taoyuans have it, and in the future, we will have even more.
What’s so good about coarse cloth when compared to the smooth feel of silk? No matter how powerful cold weapons are, they cannot match a single blow from a beastman with an awakened superpower. And when it comes to food, we Taoyuans are never in short supply.
So you see, it’s not that we want to make enemies with you, but rather you’re the one eager for a fight. On behalf of the Taoyuan Saintess, I reply to you, if you want a fight, we Taoyuan people won’t back down!"
Bai Que’s face nearly turned as black as the bottom of a charcoal pot.
All those things he took pride in turned out to be insignificant in the eyes of the other party.
He took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down, and awkwardly smiled.
"My apologies, I did not mean that, my approach was abrupt. I just wonder, which tribe is your Taoyuan? Why have I never heard of it?"
Su Tang shook her head, looking at Bai Que with a smile that was not quite a smile, "Taoyuan is not a tribe, but Taoyuan has many tribes. Or you could also understand that Taoyuan is another Ten Thousands Beast Country."
Bai Que fell silent.
He looked deeply at Su Tang, "I hope there will be a chance to visit Taoyuan."
Su Tang smiled, "You will have the chance."
Bai Que turned and left.
Time was also running short.
Gaiyin, gripping Su Tang’s shoulders, emphasized again, "Once you go out, find a safe place to wait for me, I will definitely find you!"
Su Tang patted his shoulder, "I believe in you. We still have the Lovesickness Stone, don’t we? Even though it can’t track, it can sense the other’s life condition. You can stay updated all the time; I promise my Lovesickness Stone will always shine bright!"
Gaiyin hugged Su Tang tightly.
"Wait for me!"
