My Beast Is the 12-Winged Angel

Gu Xing stared at this group, momentarily dazed.

His gaze was involuntarily drawn to the cluster of fox tribe members.

He recognized the Ghost Race, but this group…

Almost subconsciously, he began to probe the information of the leading fox girl.

[Tu Shanyue Li]

[Race: Qingqiu Race (Six-tailed State)]

[Identity: Qingqiu Princess]

[Talent: Myth Two Stars]

[Level: Commander Tier Nine]

[Power: 45,000]

[Constitution: 47,000]

[Spirit: 60,000 (MAX)]

[Speed: 55,000]

[Skills: Moon Eclipse, Mirror Prison, New Moon, Heavenly Fox Domain]

Qingqiu Race?

This race was completely unfamiliar to him.

But he didn't dwell on it; after all, there were so many races in the Alternate Space, it was impossible to know them all.

However…

What caught his attention was that maxed-out Spiritual Attribute!

The limit for an Extraordinary Level Myth Talent Guardian Beast's Spirit is 4,000!

And for Commander Level…

Looks like it's 60,000!

This fox girl being able to reach the max Spirit means…

Her Attributes are among the best even in the Myth Level!

And this Qingqiu Princess's Attributes were somewhat similar to Vera's.

The other stats — Power, Constitution, Speed — were lower, all focused on a mage-type Guardian Beast centered on Spirit.

It's just…

Their points of emphasis were different!

Vera leans more toward spell offense, whereas this Qingqiu Princess…

[Moon Eclipse: Steals 20% of the target's All Attributes!]

[Mirror Prison: Group control skill. Within skill range, those with lower Spirit than the caster fall into an Illusion Realm!]

[New Moon: Sealing Skill. Can seal enemies whose Spiritual Power does not exceed 1.5 times that of the user!]

[Heavenly Fox Domain: Enemies in range suffer control, sealing, curses, and various negative states!]

After reading Tu Shanyue Li's skills, Gu Xing unconsciously swallowed.

Covetous!

Although this fox girl's offensive power was so-so, if she could cooperate with his current Guardian Beasts…

The effect would absolutely be greater than 1+1!

Take just the Moon Eclipse skill alone…

Directly steals 20% of enemy All Attributes!

And his Soul-devouring skill could boost the Attributes of his own Guardian Beasts.

With one strengthened and the other weakened…

The whole team's combat power would level up again.

Not to mention this Qingqiu Princess also possessed mass control, and a powerful sealing skill!

This sealing skill could seal enemies whose Attribute doesn't exceed 1.5 times hers.

If this Qingqiu Princess became his Guardian Beast, with his Soul Devouring Talent…

The Princess's Spirit Attribute could reach 120,000!

She would be able to seal an enemy with Spirit Attribute up to 180,000.

180,000 Attribute…

That's Monarch Level territory!

Just thinking about it made Gu Xing even more desirous.

This sealing skill is simply a perfect match for his Talent!

But wanting to make a contract with this Princess…

That wouldn't be easy.

After all, she's a Princess of the Qingqiu Race.

If it wasn't like Liu Li and Vera's special cases…

Normally, there was no way for him to contract a race's heir—just impossible!

Lilith quietly approached, whispering in Gu Xing's ear:

"The Qingqiu Race isn't strong in combat. I'd bet eighty percent she came to the Ghost Race to seek alliance."

Alliance?

Gu Xing spun his head around so fast he nearly bumped into Lilith.

Good thing, even though Lilith had recovered a portion of her power, she was somehow still maintaining her childlike appearance.

So Gu Xing didn't feel awkward.

But what Lilith said just now made him sharply catch onto a key piece of information.

The Qingqiu Race lacked combat force — otherwise they wouldn't seek partnership with the Ghost Race.

Lacking combat force?!

Doesn't the Human Race have it?

A bold idea flashed in Gu Xing's mind:

If it's an alliance, is there a way for the Qingqiu Race to ally with the Human Race?

This kind of race known for sealing and control is extremely popular wherever they go.

And given the current situation in the Alternate Space…

Every new ally for the Human Race is precious.

The Blood Race had just established equal cooperation with the Human Race thanks to Lilith, and if he could win over the Qingqiu Race…

Thinking of this, Gu Xing lowered his voice and asked:

"Lilith, do you think the Qingqiu Race would cooperate with the Human Race?"

But to this question, Lilith gave him a hard eyeroll.

How the hell was she supposed to know?

She isn't a member of the Qingqiu Race!

Seeing Lilith's expression, Gu Xing realized he'd asked something stupid.

Still, once this idea popped up, it just lingered in his mind.

Although the Human Race couldn't match the Ghost Race in top combat ability, in mid and low tier numbers they absolutely held the advantage.

More importantly, the diverse Guardian Beasts of the Human Race theoretically made them an even better fit for the Qingqiu Race's control talents…

In principle, the Human Race really was the best partner for the Qingqiu Race!

He swept his eyes over Tu Shanyue Li.

If he got the chance he definitely had to talk with this Qingqiu Princess.

While Gu Xing was lost in thought, the icy voice of the Ghost Clan's Great Elder suddenly rang out:

"Human, this is not a place for you!"

His gaze deliberately ignored Qing Shuang and Fei Yue.

To him, those two useless Ghost Race members weren't worth a glance.

But when he swept his eyes over Liu Li and Vera standing behind Gu Xing, his eyes narrowed slightly.

An Angel, an Elf.

Two elite races!

What made him even warier…

The Great Elder's sight finally landed on Lilith.

This seemingly fragile Blood Race was giving him an instinctive sense of danger.

That meant she was at least his equal.

The Ghost Race never feared battle, but that didn't mean courting unnecessary enemies.

Making this human retreat of his own accord was the best outcome.

As for whether the human would step up for those two "cursed ones"…

The Great Elder sneered inwardly.

Unless this guy is nuts, why would he piss off the whole Ghost Race over two losers?

Yet he never expected…

Gu Xing's objective here was half about getting justice for his Guardian Beasts!

Staring at the Great Elder's facade of faux friendliness, Gu Xing's eyes flickered coldly.

This was the bastard who'd nearly killed Qing Shuang and Fei Yue back then.

If he didn't make him pay, what kind of Beast Master would he be?

But now wasn't the time…

The Divine Pattern still wasn't secured, turning against the Great Elder now would not be wise.

He'd already discussed the plan with Lilith on the way over.

The plan needed two conditions to succeed.

First, Qing Shuang and Fei Yue's father had to step out of the Forbidden Land and stand with them.

He was the Ghost Race's top prodigy — his battle prowess would be terrifying!

As long as he shared a front with Gu Xing, the Great Elder would finally pay the price.

Second, he'd need support from the Ghost Clan Leader.

Only then would they have a shot at taking the Divine Pattern.

If either condition wasn't satisfied…

Their plan simply couldn't work.

Gu Xing took a deep breath, suppressing his killing intent, and spoke in the calmest tone possible:

"Great Elder of the Ghost Race, isn't the Ghost Clan hosting the Tournament right now?"

"And as far as I know you don't have a rule against disowned members participating."

"So, we're here for one reason only—"

"To compete in the Tournament!"
