Shen Tang remained indifferent and vigilant, with a slight frown, showing a puzzled expression, "Who is Xiao Cui Hua? I’ve never heard of this person."
"You have nothing to do with her?"
"I don’t understand what you’re saying."
Xiao Jin and the others were even more suspicious. Xiao Cui Hua? What kind of name is that? How could someone have such a strange nickname?
Necro stopped speaking, just stared intently at the face of the female Monarch on the high platform, not missing any subtle changes.
The female calmly looked back at him, her gaze indifferent, with a hint of confusion and hostility, as if they were strangers meeting for the first time.
She seemed...really not to know him.
Necro saw clearly that she did not resemble Xiao Cui Hua.
In fact, one could say she was more beautiful, the most beautiful female he had ever seen, far surpassing Xiao Cui Hua.
Yet, he did not feel the thrill of that night.
Necro took a step forward.
This subtle action, however, instantly made the surrounding troops surround him like startled birds.
Necro smirked, "Is this how you treat guests?"
The bloodthirsty aura surged around him as he glanced contemptuously at these soldiers, as if looking at ants that could be crushed at will, his tone cold and domineering, "If I really wanted to do something, no one could stop me."
The Beastmen among the troops turned pale under this terrifying pressure, their legs going soft, almost kneeling in submission.
Xiao Jin directly jumped down from the high platform, raising his chin arrogantly, "You can try!"
Xue Yinzhou and Lu Xiao’s formidable pressure poured out simultaneously.
The auras of both sides clashed fiercely in the air, and the atmosphere became tense again, as if war could break out any second.
North quickly stepped in to mediate, "Everyone, please don’t be so tense. We genuinely came to discuss cooperation this time, this isn’t good."
Hu Yun snorted coldly, "The rebel army has such a bad reputation, what guest treatment? Not immediately attacking is already giving face—ah!"
Before he finished speaking, a large blood-red hand appeared out of thin air, choking his throat and lifting him into the air.
Necro looked coldly and disdainfully at the disrespectful Tiger Clan male, with just a little force, this poor Tiger Beast would die on the spot.
Necro took step after step closer to Shen Tang, "Since we are talking about cooperation, doesn’t the Night Glow Monarch plan to come over personally?"
He chuckled deeply, "From such a distance, those who don’t know might think I’m going to do something to you."
Shen Tang’s body stiffened slightly, suppressing the impulse to retreat.
Necro could sit as the rebel army leader not only because of his formidable strength, but he was also a deeply thoughtful person. If she acted too resistant, it would arouse his suspicion.
Besides, she vaguely felt that Necro’s purpose here was not limited to the Purification Tree, otherwise he wouldn’t ask about Xiao Cui Hua as soon as they met.
Could it be he really discovered something?
Shen Tang almost wanted to reach out and touch her face, but she restrained the impulse.
With Necro’s self-absorbed nature, if he truly had evidence, he would not be standing here talking to her calmly.
Thinking of this, she felt somewhat reassured, revealing an appropriate smile, "I naturally also wish to reach a cooperation with the rebel army."
"Although your army has been at war with various empires over the years, now we have a common enemy, as the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Today, the visit of Necro’s leader is a great honor for me as well."
