Just when Yage and the others were looking at the Darkness King, the Darkness King had already set off. By the time Yage and the others came out from the rooms on the ship, Zhao Hai and the others were almost at the Aries Continent.
Seeing the situation, Yage and the others exchanged glances. They had to reevaluate Zhao Hai's strength.
How powerful Zhao Hai was, they hadn't had a clear understanding before. However, the fact that he had reached the Aries Continent in such a short time gave them a rough idea of his strength.
When Zhao Hai arrived outside the Aries Continent, he did not enter but turned to Yage and the others, saying, "Clan leaders, where are we going?"
Yage glanced at Zhao Hai and replied, "Turn around; we are going to the Libra Continent." Zhao Hai turned the ship as he was told and headed straight for the Libra Continent.
The speed of the Darkness King had now reached its limit, but the ship remained calm on the water, as if it were still on the sea surface. There was a slight breeze, which left a deeper impression on Yage and the others regarding the Darkness King.
As the ship moved forward, Zhao Hai turned to Yage and the three smiled, "Clan leaders, I am not very familiar with the situation regarding the otherworldly divine race. Can you help explain it to me?"
Yage and the others exchanged glances, and then both Yage and Yelduo stepped back a step, leaving Lahualdoril there. It was evident they wanted Lahualdoril to explain things to Zhao Hai.
Seeing this, Lahualdoril awkwardly smiled and said, "Then let me explain it to Mr. Zhao Hai." Yage nodded and turned to Zhao Hai, saying, "Sir, we would like to take a break first. With Lahual here, it should be fine. What do you think, sir?"
Zhao Hai nodded and turned to Xiao Bingya, saying, "Xiao Bingya, please take Clan Leader Yage and Clan Leader Yelduo to rest in your room."
Xiao Bingya and the others responded and led Yage and Yelduo toward their room. Yelduo noticed that their room was definitely the second-best room on the ship, but it was not only their few rooms; there were many other similar rooms.
After the group went downstairs, Zhao Hai clapped his hands, and Laura brought forth a table full of food and drinks. The wine they brought this time was also of good quality. Zhao Hai personally poured Lahualdoril a glass before pouring himself one, then raised his glass with a smile at Lahualdoril, saying, "Clan Leader Lahualdoril, I can see that the three clans came to request my help today, and you are the only one who holds me in high regard. I, Zhao Hai, have no other words; let's have a toast."
Upon hearing Zhao Hai say this, Lahualdoril's face showed a hint of embarrassment. He also felt that Yage's attitude today was somewhat excessive, but he still raised his glass and said, "Actually, Yage and Yelduo mean no harm. They have always treated humans this way. Please don’t take it to heart, sir."
Zhao Hai feigned a look of anger and said solemnly, "If it weren't for my inability to deal with Elder Wu, I wouldn't have to suffer this. Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. I get along well with Clan Leader Lahualdoril; we should interact more in the future."
Lahualdoril smiled and said, "Sir, you are too kind. It is my honor to be able to befriend you. If you ever need anything from our Dwarven Divine Race, please don't hesitate to let me know."
Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said, "It's strange to say, but when I was on the Ark Continent, my relationship with the other races was quite good. Whether it was the dwarf clan, orc tribe, or Elven Race, my relations with them were great. Yet I find that the Beast God Clan and Elven Divine Race seem to have a rather unfavorable view of me?"
Lahualdoril bitterly smiled. He understood very well that Yage and the others truly did not like Zhao Hai. To them, Zhao Hai was like a disruptor of order, breaking all the balances within the divine race. Yage and the others were afraid of Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai's strength was indeed too powerful. With just himself, he had nearly wiped out the divine race, while the divine race was much stronger than their otherworldly divine race. If Zhao Hai ever turned against them, they would probably have no chance to retaliate. For these reasons, Yage had always been unwilling to have more contact with Zhao Hai.
