Thus, upon learning of the Blood Moon Lord’s response, they were left with no choice but to cease fighting.
Of course, if two leaders were to combine their forces, they could potentially pose a threat to Zhou Tian and his group.
But the current issue is that such a situation is believed to be next to impossible.
All the forces on the continent are now in a delicate balance.
Although the leaders have personal connections with each other, it is difficult for them to unite against Zhou Tian.
The reasons for this are twofold: one, the allocation of benefits is problematic, and two, if the other leaders can find support, why couldn’t the Blood Moon Lord?
Given these factors and their inability to pose a serious threat to Zhou Tian and his group, no leader would risk their own safety for a battle outco that remains uncertain.
As such, the previously bustling continent suddenly beca quiet during this ti.
However, at the mont when stability was restored to the continent, every monster started questioning the role the Blood Moon Lord had played in the series of previous events.
Rumors of a split had suddenly erged amongst leaders and vassal monsters who had maintained a good relationship.
The Blood Moon Lord had remained indifferent throughout Zhou Tian’s advantageous period, as if the rumors were true.
However, when Zhou Tian found himself in trouble, the Blood Moon Lord imdiately jumped to the rescue.
Such conduct warranted so speculation.
Could it be that all of this was a performance directed by the Blood Moon Lord?
Considering how coincidental his appearances were, it seed as if he had planned everything, rely waiting for the other players to move the situation to a certain point, at which ti he would step in to wrap everything up.
In light of the final results, even though the Sheepman Tribe led by Zhou Tian gained the most benefits, as a vassal tribe of the Blood Moon Territory, the strengthening of the Sheepman Tribe’s power could also be seen as an indication of the growing power of the Blood Moon Clan.
Such assumptions although were not taken seriously, had led to various rumors spreading through the continent at the ti.
While others were speculating randomly about Zhou Tian’s situation, he was once again invited by the Blood Moon Lord to return to the Blood Moon Territory.
Honestly, when he received the invitation, Zhou Tian hesitated as to whether he should go to the Blood Moon Territory.
Things had changed, and although the Blood Moon Lord had co to his aid at the final mont, Zhou Tian knew well that his recent troubles were all orchestrated by the Blood Moon Lord.
In other words, had Zhou Tian not beco significantly stronger recently, he could have perished in confronting the previous crisis.
Therefore, regardless of the Blood Moon Lord’s later actions, after experiencing his earlier sches, Zhou Tian would never fully trust him as he used to.
Given the strength of the Blood Moon Lord, Zhou Tian might have so chance of surviving in his own territory.
However, if he were to set foot in the Blood Moon Territory and the Blood Moon Lord suddenly turned against him, he would certainly not be able to guarantee his safety.
In the end, Zhou Tian still accepted the Blood Moon Lord’s invitation.
His acceptance was not so much out of trust but rather because he felt that he would undoubtedly be unable to reject the Blood Moon Lord’s invitation.
No matter how strong the Sheepman Tribe has beco, its status as a vassal monster of the Blood Moon Clan remained unchanged.
Since the ti when the Sheepman Tribe was still a part of the Beastman Tribe, their core authority had been taken by the Blood Moon Clan.
In other words, if the Blood Moon Lord wished, he could simply revoke the reigning power of the Sheepman Tribe by exercising their core authority in the Ascension Demon Pool.
While it’s true that Zhou Tian might not necessarily lose control over the Sheepman Tribe, it can’t be denied that unless he uses the Stele’s power to permanently secure his strength, the loss of the power boost from controlling the Sheepman Tribe’s territory would considerably degrade his strength from a near-Pope-level to an interdiate or advanced Monster Boss level.
If things were to progress to that point, even though Zhou Tian’s strength would be reduced, he could consider that as a threat eliminated, find a new territory, and possibly rise again in the future.
However, despite knowing this, giving up everything he has at the mont was a decision that Zhou Tian still found hard to make.
Thus, without knowing whether the Blood Moon Lord’s invitation was a blessing or a curse, he eventually couldn’t bring himself to refuse.
But when Zhou Tian actually arrived in the Blood Moon Territory and had yet to et the Blood Moon Lord, he already started to feel uneasy.
It wasn’t that he was timid, but the atmosphere within the Blood Moon Territory was unnerving.
Upon Zhou Tian’s arrival, all the Blood Moon Clan monsters were looking at him strangely.
After sensing their gaze, Zhou Tian naturally beca anxious.
