Chapter 1235: I Just Didn't Want to Deceive It

Sitting in the chair, Su Yang took the bowl Xiaoyu handed over and tasted the dishes Sovereign Jiazi had made today, finding her cooking had improved quite nicely.

This was already quite good!

After all, recently, Sovereign Jiazi hadn't cooked at all.

The two of them had been sitting on the Storm Eagle's claws, subsisting on dry rations.

Finding the taste good, Su Yang, who hadn't had a hot meal in several days, began eating in big bites.

In one go, he ate two big bowls before slowing down just a little.

"General Su, when the Three-Headed Demon Shark stated its conditions, I thought you would agree to it!" Sovereign Jiazi said softly. "Twenty years, although far too brief, I figured you would first agree to that Three-Headed Demon Shark, then spend twenty years winning it over, building feelings with it. With General Su's ability, it shouldn't take twenty years to make a Three-Headed Demon Shark utterly devoted to you…"

Su Yang swallowed a mouthful of rice and said, "Of course I know that!"

"I think this kind of Imperial-grade Three-Headed Demon Shark must be extremely rare; who knows when we'd run into another one next time… I don't believe General Su didn't consider doing that. I'm very curious—why didn't General Su agree first and then take it slowly?"

Sovereign Jiazi had personally experienced Su Yang's ability to beguile beast companions.

Whether it was her Golden-Scaled Mermaid, Xia Na's crow, or Liu Mengyun's main battle companion, the Ice Moon Spirit… they were all extremely close to Su Yang!

Su Yang replied casually, "I couldn't bear it!"

Sovereign Jiazi raised an eyebrow, recalling the Three-Headed Demon Shark's corpse: "You couldn't bear it?"

"Mm!" Su Yang nodded. "I couldn't bear it, and I didn't want to deceive that Three-Headed Demon Shark!"

"Didn't want to trick it? So you killed it?"

Sovereign Jiazi stopped her chopsticks.

Su Yang's reason was simple and plain, completely beyond Sovereign Jiazi's expectations.

"Right, I didn't want to trick it—that's my principle. Twenty years, that's impossible!" Su Yang shook his head. "Having me lie to it for this matter is unnecessary, and it goes against my personal principles… I told it: either come with me, or die. No other choice."

Sovereign Jiazi pursed her lips, feeling Su Yang was as hard as a rock—the stiff, unyielding kind.

This kind of man has never been popular with girls.

"General Su probably isn't very good at coaxing girls, is he?"

"Indeed not very skilled. What about it?"

"Nothing!"

Sovereign Jiazi had originally wanted to ask Su Yang how he had won over Liu Mengyun.

But before the words left her mouth, she decisively closed her mouth.

Given Su Yang's strength and status, whether he could coax girls no longer mattered.

Plenty of girls would actively want to coax Su Yang…

After lunch, they rested for a while.

During that time, a few bold fierce beasts approached, but they were all killed by Mo Yi.

Not having tamed a Three-Headed Demon Shark was certainly a bit of a pity.

But thinking that Mo Yi had obtained two Three-Headed Demon Shark corpses, Su Yang felt relieved.

Even though he hadn't won that Three-Headed Demon Shark's heart, at least he'd gotten its corpse.

All in all, it wasn't a complete loss!

After packing up, Sovereign Jiazi asked, "General Su, where do we head next?"

"Let's circle along the coastline. If there are no spatial fusion points on Pretty Continent, we'll head to the Mermaids' gathering grounds."

Su Yang still adopted the most cautious search method—circling the long coastline of the Pretty Continent, using the Void Wanderer's sensitivity to spatial energy fluctuations to locate spatial fusion points.

In the vast sea region, they were even less likely to encounter danger.

Sovereign Jiazi nodded, fully agreeing with Su Yang's plan: "That's fine too. Our search speed is already very fast!"

With Su Yang taking her along, the search speed was naturally fast.

Much faster than when the Island Nation had led several million civilians in their migration.

Sitting on the Storm Eagle's claws, the coastline rapidly receded.

After three days, having passed the fourth coastal city, the Storm Eagle informed Su Yang that a fifth coastal city had appeared in its field of view.

Su Yang only briefly learned about the situation of the various countries on Pretty Continent and had no intention of intervening.

He was simply too lazy to bother.

He didn't even really want to make contact.

But this time, the situation was a bit special.

The Storm Eagle told Su Yang that the city now appearing in its field of view seemed to be predominantly inhabited by black-haired, yellow-skinned people of the yellow race.

Upon receiving this intel, Su Yang grew slightly interested.

Last time, from the brains of two unlucky Beast Tamers, Su Yang learned that some Huaxia people seemed to have established a small country called "tang" on this continent.

Tang?
