Chapter 378: 378 Why Are You So Afraid Of Him?!
378 Why Are You So Afraid Of Him?!
Tian Luohe was quite emotional when he talked about this matter. Unlike the other Tiandu division chiefs, he had actually met Yuchi several times.
He had had his doubts about Yuchi’s involvement in this incident earlier, but had chosen not to speak up since everyone was in a fit of anger.
Now, everything had cleared up and everybody realized that this matter had nothing to do with Yuchi.
It was just that these humans in front of them had a couple of screws loose in their heads and made some stupid decisions.
Ordinton let out a long sigh of relief.
He used a relaxed tone to say to the other Tiandu division chiefs, “Actually, I also have a basic grasp of Senior Yuchi’s personality. After all, I only became chief because Andrew was killed a few years ago. Therefore, I did a lot of research on Yuchi to find out if I was in any danger if he chose to return. Thankfully, that was not the case.”
“As long as this incident doesn’t have anything to do with Senior Yuchi, everything will be easy to handle.”
“Alright then, everyone, please stand at the side and wait patiently.”
“I’ll talk to these people for a bit. Then, we’ll start the formal process.”
Everyone nodded.
Saying and doing things were completely different. No matter how much they blustered, they truly did not want to fight a Dao heart realm cultivator, which was why they had approached this matter so cautiously.
It was for the sake of safeguarding their own lives.
“What do you mean? What are you talking about?”
When they saw the Tiandu division chiefs and clan leaders conversing with each other in a relaxed manner, and even expressing a deep sense of respect for Yuchi, these directors were at a loss for words.

They could not understand what was going on at all.
Based on their interpretation of the conversation and the situation, the reason why these people had even come to discuss and negotiate matters with them was not because the human race was too powerful, but because they were worried about Yuchi’s revenge.
Rather than realize that something was wrong, they became furious instead.
One of them smashed the table in front of him in anger. He looked at the hundred or so people in front of him and started rattling off.
“I don’t know why you’re afraid of him.”
“Tell me, why are you afraid of Yuchi?”
“He’s just a person we abandoned.”
“You guys really make me sick!”
“We humans aren’t afraid of Yuchi, but you guys are actually afraid of him instead. Are you cowards?”
“To be honest, you’re lucky that you aren’t humans!”
“Weaklings like you will be weeded out by the community!”
“You don’t deserve to be in the same room with us, much less negotiate with us. I’m f*cking speechless!”
The director was extremely resentful and angry as he spoke to the people in front of him.
When Ordinton, Tian Luohe, and the others heard this, they laughed out loud. It was so hard to suppress their smiles and looks of ridicule.
These people were really something else!
What was going on with the humans?
Had their brains been damaged?
It was completely incomprehensible.
Why did they abandon Yuchi?
This was akin to chasing out the guardian of their race!
The reason why the human race was still alive was because of Yuchi’s prestige. That was the basis of this negotiation. Otherwise, everyone would have just swarmed over to kill and punish them.
“Alright, alright. I don’t want to answer your question now, nor do I want to say why we’re afraid of Senior Yuchi.”

“After all, you guys are blind.”
In the meantime, Ordinton had already taken out a document.
This document was also translated into the human language so that the humans could understand.
Then, ignoring the furious gazes of the Department of Inspection, Ordinton began to read out the terms listed in the document.
“Number one.”
“According to the total population loss caused by the human race to the two races, which we have determined to be 40 million people, though it could be more, according to the Tiandu division’s laws, you must pay 10 times as much. In other words, you will give us 400 million people as compensation for your extermination of those two races.”
“Number two.”
“The total loss you have caused in terms of material wealth this time is 390,000 crystals. Once again, according to the Tiandu division’s laws, you must pay 10 times as much, which is 3.9 million crystals, which is equivalent to 3.9 trillion yuan. We will not accept your local currency as compensation. You will have to spend other similar resources in exchange for crystals to pay this compensation.”
“Number three.”
“Your crime this time is quite serious. According to the normal terms, other than the first two items, you will also have to provide a similar amount of laborers to help restore the territories you destroyed. At the same time, you have the obligation to treat the survivors of those two races well.”
“Number four…”
“Number five…”
“Number eighteen…”
“There are a total of 18 compensation clauses. Please look through them in detail. There is no need for you to sign these clauses, nor do you need to give an opinion on them. You have to accept these clauses and implement them. You are given 365 days to do this, starting today. Please provide compensation within this period. If you fail to do so, we will simply take it from you forcefully instead.”
Ordinton finally finished reading out the 5,000-word document.
Of course, there were more details involved, but he would leave them to peruse those specific terms in their own time.
Then, he looked at the directors of the Department of Inspection in front of him, who were dumbfounded. He said frankly, “If you are unaware of the basic rules of the battlefield of the myriad races, I hope we can help you understand them at this time.”
