Chapter 1309  Unexpected Guest

The Divine Dragon stared dagger at Tang Shaoyang, but he kept glancing at Dinael.

Tang Shaoyang was surprised that Eol was more concerned about Dinael than himself, "Should I crush her first?" He brought the half-freezing Dinael closer to Eol's face. He just needed to put more strength on his grip, and Dinael would lose her lower half.

"Don't kill her! You will regret it if you kill her! This will not end with just a defeat, but Nirvana will use everything they have to kill you! Your family! Your empire! Your world!" Eol growled.

"What's the difference?" Tang Shaoyang asked, "Nirvana sent nine God Ranks to the world that are not even in the third phase. In a world with no official God Rank, Nirvana still sent nine God Ranks. What will make it different? Will Nirvana give up if I don't kill her? I don't think so. You guys come to The Dimensional Tower to kill me after finding out my class, sending God Ranks to hunt me. Just because I have a class that is stronger than most."

"Nirvana is created to maintain the balance between the players. Your class breaks the balance hence we have to get rid of you!"

As soon as Eol finished his words, Tang Shaoyang reached his wing. He forcefully ripped apart the wing just like what Eol did to him. The blood sprayed as the white dragon let out a suppressed groan, enduring the pain.

Then he stepped onto Eol's head as his five heads came closer, "Don't spew such bullshit in front of me. Maintaining the balance? What balance? Sending God Ranks to conquer Earth is to maintain the balance, huh?" Tang Shaoyang was so angry deep inside. He almost lost everything just for the bullcrap. Nirvana was trying to role play as a God just because they had reached God Rank, thinking of maintaining the balance and stuff. That made him angry if that was the actual reason.

"You said you would make me suffer before killing me. I will make you suffer before I kill you!" Tang Shaoyang brought Dinael closer to Eol, "It seems Dinael is very important for you that you are willing to sacrifice yourself. I will kill her right before your eyes."

The Divine Dragon looked at the struggling Dinael, her eyes filled with fear. The trip was supposed to be an easy trip, to let Dinael gain some experiences in actual "war". However, no one expected that Tang Shaoyang would be this strong, killing many God Ranks, and even got Eol.

"Oooo, my friend, don't kill her, my friend!" A voice rang, echoing through the air.

The voice was familiar to Tang Shaoyang, but he did not remember whose voice it was. He looked around as his Spirit Eyes searched where the voice came from.

"I am next to you," Tang Shaoyang jolted and found a figure next to him. The weird thing was that he could not feel anything from the figure. He could not feel the figure's presence, at all. The figure had no aura or energy inside him, empty.

"Calm down, Tang! It's me Arion," The Divine Dragon immediately turned toward the figure. Eol was stunned to hear the name. At least, that was what Eol showed on the outside.

Tang Shaoyang remembered the name, and no wonder he felt familiar in the voice. He heard that voice almost every day during his climb in the Dimensional Tower. The God Rank asked him to clear the monster breeding ground.

"Why are you here?"

"Don't worry. I am here to help you, but it seems you don't need my help, at all. I am worried you know. I heard that Nirvana sent more God Ranks than they are supposed to, sending nine God Ranks to the lower world is excessive, you know? Especially one of them is a Divine Dragon. But I did not expect that you managed to subdue a Divine Dragon," Arion came down to the ground, looking at Eol while shaking his head, "You have fallen so low, Eol."

"Anyway, I am not actually on Earth. This is just my avatar that I sent to check on you. I can use a little bit of power with this avatar in case you need my help, but it's unnecessary. You won the battle the moment you captured her, but I do agree with Eol not to kill her," Arion pointed at Dinael.

"I agree for a different reason, it's for you, Tang. Spare her life, and I can buy you time. The time you need to reach God Rank and confront Nirvana yourself. What do you think? During that time, I will make sure that Nirvana and their alliance will not touch Earth," Arion floated, standing in front of Dinael, "But I need her alive, and it's your decision. I am just giving you an option, my friend. Eol is not wrong that Nirvana will exhaust all the resources they have to kill you if you kill her. She is quite special, Nirvana's Supreme Lord's favorite granddaughter. Eol is desperate because if she dies, his family will also die."

Tang Shaoyang fell silent. He wanted that time, but he did not know if he should trust Arion. They never met, and their relationship was based on favor. He was doing a favor for Arion, and Arion rewarded him for doing a favor. Should he trust Arion? Even though he received the help, he did not really trust Arion.

"I see. I understand that you don't really trust me. That hurts me a little, but I understand," Arion sensed the distrust with how hesitated Tang Shaoyang to answer him.

"What's the terms? How long can you buy for me with her life?" Tang Shaoyang decided to put a little trust in Arion.

"Give me a moment. I will talk with their Supreme Lord," The avatar went static for a few minutes.

"They agree with the temporary truce. They will take an oath for a hundred years of truce, but you have to return her and Eol immediately," Arion back with the great news. It would have been great news if Tang Shaoyang had not learned about the Feather of Oathbreaker. He might believe in the oath if not for that item. But he knew that there was an item that could get through the oath.

"NO! I don't want their oath! You should that the oath is not that reliable, Arion. Are you trying to trick me?" Tang Shaoyang cast a suspicious gaze at the avatar.

"Ay, don't give that look, Tang. I am here as a mediator, not to negotiate on your behalf. You can make a counter. What terms do you want? I can relay it to them, and I can give you advice as well."

"A hundred years, but I will keep her as my prisoner. When the time is up, tell them to pick her up, and Eol is not included. I also want compensation for the attack!" Tang Shaoyang talked about his condition. If Dinael was that important, then he just needed to keep Dinael as a prisoner with him.

 Tang Shaoyang leaned to the truce because he did not think he could win against Nirvana if they really sent all of their God Ranks to Earth. Winning this fight did not mean Nirvana would not come again in the future. If this Dinael was really that important, Nirvana might really ask the other six God Alliances to attack him and Earth. He did not think of winning that fight.

Arion went silent once more. He was relaying Tang Shaoyang's conditions, and it took much longer this time. Ten minutes passed, and he returned with another condition, "Twenty years truce, and you can keep her as a prisoner. However, you can't torture her or put her in a dungeon. They want you to treat her like a guest, a good room to sleep and good food to eat. They don't agree with the compensation unless you also guarantee Eol's life."

"No compensation means no truce. If they are not willing to compensate me for what they have done, then the deal is off. Killing Eol and Dinael will give them compensation. They can come to me, if they can find me later," Tang Shaoyang was decisive. He was in a position to take advantage, and he would not make the deal if he gained nothing.

There was a plan in his mind after the battle. He knew winning this battle was not the end of the war. Nirvana and the other God Alliances would keep coming for him. However, he had a plan to move to the Ortis Continent. He would leave Earth and live there, and it would take time for them to find him. During that time, he needed to reach God Rank. That should be enough time for him to reach God Rank.

Arion scratched his head, "I will relay it to them. Anything else?"

"There's one more. I want the other six God Alliances to agree to the truce as well. The Celestial, The Holy Sanctum, Abyss, Underworld, Hades, and Metarnian Dragon Clan. Those six God Alliances must agree to the truce as well." Tang Shaoyang mentioned the six God Alliances that are in alliance with Nirvana. He had to make sure that those six God Alliances also did not attack Earth.

Arion left again, and this time took longer than the previous one. All this time, Eol and Dinael were listening from the sideline. Eol could feel his diminishing energy inside him. He could not break free from the sword.

"You really give them a hard time. They agree with your additional conditions and are willing to compensate you, but you have to spare Eol as well. They are willing to double the compensation if you don't kill Eol. Also, they want to know what kind of compensation do you want?"
