Chapter 259: Absolute Obeisance

"Right. Sufficiently strong or dense genetic energy will generate mental energy, also known as spiritual energy. Spiritual energy can be used for mental attacks or defenses, and Whitey\'s ability to consume spiritual energy will simultaneously weaken my opponent and strengthen myself," Zhang Lie explained.

Mental energy, spiritual power... these were concepts far beyond their reach at present.

"In that case, captain, what happens to someone who has all their spiritual power drained?" Yang Ze asked.

Fang Yi smiled. "If I\'m not mistaken, the hunter will become nothing more than an empty shell, devoid of soul and spirit. It\'s a fate worse than death!"

Everyone\'s eyes widened as they considered Fang Yi\'s words, then turned to Zhang Lie.

"Yes, Fang Yi\'s pretty much correct," Zhang Lie added, causing everyone to look toward Whitey with awe. Here was a frightening lifeform that could devour one\'s soul!

Just as everyone was captivated by Whitey, a knock came from outside the humans\' waiting room. "Mr. Zhang Lie, I\'m Hong Yu from the winged, here to pay you a visit!"

Despite Zhang Lie claiming that a representative of the winged would soon arrive to make reparations, the hunters of Team Zenith weren\'t sure whether or not to believe him— but what he said had indeed happened!

Zhang Lie smiled. Stowing Whitey away, he called out, "Please, come in!"

Hong Yu entered with two winged guards, one blue-winged and the other black-winged. It did seem as though the white-winged emperor, and indeed the whole of the white-winged clan, had lost status and power. Only then would he and his fellow humans truly be safe.

"Mr. Zhang Lie, please allow me to tender my sincerest apologies for what you faced in the arena today. These are rainbow fruits native to the land of the rainbow-winged, and I hope you\'ll accept this gift!" Hong Yu bowed deeply toward Zhang Lie the moment she entered, her attitude earnest.

Nevertheless, Zhang Lie didn\'t say anything, and the members of Team Zenith looked toward her with distrusting faces.

After a pregnant pause, Hong Yu continued, "I apologize, Mr. Zhang Lie. Although the white-winged emperor had already been expelled from the union of the winged, we bear ultimate responsibility for the affair. We are deeply sorry for his actions, so please allow us to make reparations,"

She was so deferential that even her two guards were surprised.

Zhang Lie finally spoke. "Make reparations? I almost died during the match today!"

Zhang Lie glanced toward her with dissatisfaction.

Hong Yu sighed, then retrieved a wooden box from her robes which she placed on the table. "On behalf of the winged, we have specially prepared a panacea for you: the serum of the emperor swallow!"

The hunters of Team Zenith had never heard of such a thing, but Zhang Lie clearly did. "The serum of the emperor swallow? The swallows tended to by the rainbow-winged clan leader himself?"

"A rare panacea indeed, and the greatest sincerity the rainbow-winged clan can offer at present," Hong Yu replied, emphasizing the word \'greatest\'.

Zhang Lie swiftly claimed the two gifts as his own, then smiled. "Very well. For the serum, if nothing else, I\'ll temporarily forgive you."

The three representatives of the rainbow-winged clan fought hard to quell their inner turmoil. Who did Zhang Lie think he was?! These were rare and potent items that even a fourth-realm hunter would have to pay an arm and a leg for!

Of course, the representatives kept these thoughts to themselves. They didn\'t dare provoke this man any further, not after what he had done to Phoenix and the white-winged clan.

"We thank you for your clemency, Mr. Zhang Lie." Hong Yu\'s obeisance left the members of Team Zenith feeling rather awkward.

After all, Zhang Lie had murdered the prince of the winged, and had all but destroyed the white-winged emperor\'s authority in the process. The winged were surely in the right to look unfavorably upon him; why were they trying so hard to get into his good graces now?

These rainbow fruits that Hong Yu had brought out were rare enough already, but with the addition of the serum of the emperor swallow, which sounded to be of immeasurable value just from its name alone...

"Very good. It looks as though the winged finally have a wise representative," Zhang Lie commented.

"Please, Mr. Zhang, I\'m no match for the likes of you!" Hong Yu exclaimed, smiling politely.

"Regardless, I hope this will be the end of the conflict between the humans and the winged. In that case, I\'ll leave a spot for you in the second batch of openings for the limit fragment research."

"Th-Thank you, Mr. Zhang! Please, feel free to reach out to me at any time with regards to what you need for the research. The winged will do our best to satisfy your requests!"
