--- Chapter 70 ---

Two weeks passed quickly in the Black-Corner Region.

And drastic changes happened to one of the most influential factions in the territory, namely the Beast Taming Gate. From the name alone, one could guess what this faction could do.

Beast Taming Gate is not the strongest, but not the weakest group in the Black-Corner Region. It has the proper strength to survive within the top ten of the Black Ranking and possesses several Dou Emperor experts.

Even the leader of Beast Taming Gate is "literally." boasted as a peak Dou Emperor Fighter, but that changed roughly 13 days ago.

The Beast Taming Gate suddenly changed its leader to an unknown guy called Bai Ya. He defeated the Beast Taming Gate's leader and conquered the group under his control, spreading his name and influence on the South Gate of the Black-Corner Region.

It happened too suddenly for everyone to react.

However, Bai Ya apparently does have a unique set of skills and defeated the Beast Taming Gate's leader in one against one fight, allowing him to overpower someone with higher cultivation than him.

And in just two weeks, Bai Ya's name spread like a flood over the Black-Corner Region. Every faction leader in the Black Ranking becomes wary of Beast Taming Gate, yet not a single piece of information is "weirdly." discovered about him.

As if he was a ghost, Bai Ya appeared and caused anxiety to bloom in the Black Corner Region. It's a somewhat bad or good stimulus because this vast land has become too calm in the past three years.

Of course, horrible things happened one after another in this brutal area of the Dou Qi Continent. However, the change of faction leader rarely happened within a decade or century.

Heck, it's even rarer than some grand events.

In the future, people will call Bai Ya the White Fang of the Black Corner Region.

...

...

As Bai Ya became the focus of all people in the Black-Corner Region, the Beast Taming Gate experienced a thorough cleansing and reformation.

Bai Ya, or what his loved ones known as Baek Ain, sat on the rock throne while looking down on the Beast Taming Gate's former leader and some high-ranking members. They trembled in dread before his presence and couldn't even look at him straight.

Well, They didn't dare because Bai Ya could kill them anytime.

Even though Bai Ya's appearance is younger than the youngest member of Beast Taming Gate, his fighting prowess exceeds that of a skilled old monster. And not to mention Bai Ya's weird Dou Qi and techniques allowed him to absorb one's life energy and cause lasting scars.

They even suspected Bai Ya to be one of those masters who swallowed anti-aging medicine and appeared younger than he should be. However, they threw that thought out of the window immediately.

Two weeks ago.

Beast Taming Gate suddenly received an unknown attacker. A tall white-haired man, wearing a dark cloak and face mask to cover his lower face, but one could see his cold blue eyes.

He only said "Bai Ya." which is his name and started beating the shit out of everyone before his path, breaking their bones mercilessly. He didn't even bother to explain anything afterward and wiped through the entire organization with nothing but his blood-covered fist.

It wasn't his blood.

Bai Ya defeated higher-ups like they were ants to him and bullied the leader, a peak Dou Emperor Expert as if he was a mere child.

The people in Black Corner Region thought Beast Taming Gate was changing under the new leader. No, they are simply recovering from Bai Ya's beatings and are still traumatized until now.

And that was a privilege given by Bai Ya as he spared them under one condition to surrender willingly. Lives are precious, so they could only accept his term and call him young boss from now on.

That young boss term makes them sure Bai Ya is a young genius from a clan in the Central Plains, but they have never heard of any with Bai's surname, which creates another confusion among the Beast Taming Gate's members.

"How was the information I wanted?" Baek Ain opened his mouth, leaning on the rock throne lazily. "Did you get it already?"

"It's been two weeks. Even with broken bones, you should be able to gather them."

"Right?"

"Yang Ming..."

Yang Ming, or what people know as Beast Taming Master, is trembling when hearing his name called by Baek Ain. It was a nightmare fuel, but he couldn't do anything about it.

Yang Ming swallowed his saliva nervously and answered softly, "I-I have gathered them, young boss. Everything that happened in the central plains in the last three months is within this scroll."

He showed a brown scroll made of magical beast's hide, and Baek Ain picked it up with his immense Spiritual Energy. After reaching Spirit Soul Power a week ago, Baek Ain gained a decent telekinetic ability to move things around.

Nevertheless, it was a shocking revelation for others.

"8-8Th Ranked Alchemist."

What Baek Ain did in front of the Beast Taming Gate's members was on purpose. Moving things around with just mental power is the ability of an 8-rank alchemist.

A 7-rank Alchemist also could do it, but it won't be as fluid as the 8-rank Alchemist unless that person possesses immense Soul Power, Talents, and guidance from saint-like existence.

Baek Ain ignored the admiring gazes of these men, focusing his attention on the brown scroll. He quickly read through it and closed it after five minutes, frowning because many things in this alternative universe changed more than he had expected.

Central Plains is currently resided by three factions.

The human factions are "roughly." divided into One Hall, One Tower, Two Sects, Three Valleys, and Four Pavilions. Of course, we didn't count the Eight Ancient Clans because they are neutral forces.

The beast factions are mostly powerful magical beast clans.

And lastly, demonic factions.

A completely new variable Baek Ain didn't know existed until now.

'Fucking hell, the dynamic of Central Plains is more messed up than I presumed.' Baek Ain cursed in his head.

Demonic Factions stood firmly in the Southern Region. They are people who are "inherently." birthed with inverted Dou Qi Energy and trained differently than others.

It's neither a good nor bad faction.

It's Unorthodox.

Unlike normal Dou Qi Practitioners, it's called "Demonic." because their Dou Qi is "throughly." inverted by any means flowing in their bodies instead of meridians.

The Demonic Factions trained through Dou Qi with intense bloodstream circulation, making their Dou Qi colored red or black. In rare cases, the Dou Qi appears to be white and attributeless.

Attributeless Dou Qi might sound useless, but it's not. What makes the people from Demonic Faction different is they could utilize Attributeless Dou Qi and neutralize the opponent's Dou Qi, weakening effectively.

Not to mention people from Demonic Factions possess durable physiques similar to that of Beast Clans.

Aside from Demonic Factions, the rest of Central Plains stayed the same except Beast Faction.

As Baek Ain remembers, there are only around five clans such as Void Ancient Dragon Tribe, Nine Serene Deep Ground Phyton Tribe, Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe, Gold Swallowing Mouse Tribe, and Scorpion Dragon Tribe.

However, one more clan actually appeared in this alternative universe and stood between these five tribes. And that clan is called the Sun-Swallowing Nether Bird Tribe.

"Sun-Swallowing... Nether Bird." Baek Ain didn't feel good about this.

"Haa..."

"Get out, all of you. I'll call you when I need something."

"Y-Yes, young boss." The Beast Taming Gate's former leader and high-ranked members disappeared from the throne room, leaving Baek Ain alone.

Baek Ain rubbed his forehead and sighed, 'Alicia.'

'Does Sun-Swallowing Nether Bird Tribe has something to do with this body's origin?'

[...]

[Yes]

[This change happened to accommodate your status as "Goddess of Opportunity." Champion. Your soul might get protected by Soul Protection(Unknown), but other constellations would notice and find you immediately]

[That's why the root has to get established... For you to grow]

[Sorry for not telling you this, host]

[It's part of my protocols... However, you have unlocked some of them now] Alicia sounds troubled.

"..." Baek Ain.

"I won't blame you, Alicia."

"I recently became too comfortable. And somewhat afraid to take a step out of my comfort zone."

Baek Ain closed his eyes and commented, "Many things will become rowdy soon."
