Upon hearing Duan Gujin's words, disdain was written all over the Female Clan Chief's face.

"You truly lack courage!"

She let out a dry cackle.

Duan Gujin chuckled dryly: "It's not that I lack courage, but rather I don't understand. Do we have some sort of feud?"

"I suppose you are still unaware of what those few individuals have done? They injured some of my subordinates; how do you think I should punish them!"

The Female Clan Chief said coldly.

"Are you telling the truth?"

Hearing the words of the Female Clan Chief, Duan Gujin felt that there was still room for communication.

If the Female Clan Chief had truly wanted to execute the warriors from the Qiankun Continent who had intruded into her domain, those warriors would have been dead long ago.

He surmised that the Female Clan Chief did not immediately kill them - the members of the Human Clan - likely because she had not found a reason to do so yet, or she wanted to extract some useful intelligence from the Human Warriors.

"May I know how should I address you?"

"You may call me Queen!"

The Female Clan Chief declared.

"Very well, Your Majesty the Queen! I am proficient in Alchemy and can refine Elixir Pills of very high practical value! If my companions have caused harm to your subordinates, I can treat their wounds!"

Duan Gujin said cautiously.

"Heh heh!"

The woman let out a dry chuckle but did not respond.

Duan Gujin slightly furrowed his brows. He had intended to probe the intentions of the queen before him, but it seemed she was unmoved.

"It seems her previous words were meant to deceive me! What exactly is she aiming for?"

He had planned to feign surrender, but to his surprise, she did not take the bait at all.

Releasing his Divine Sense, he sensed that the cultivation of the Queen before him was at least at the level of an Emperor Wu.

Facing such a formidable enemy, Duan Gujin knew that she could easily crush him.

Back on the Qiankun Continent, he could still contend with Martial Sect Realm warriors, but now he was on the Fire Cloud Continent. Without the suppression of Rule Power, the realms of cultivation here exceeded those of the Qiankun Continent by an entire Great Realm.

Thus, the power of the Martial Emperor Realm displayed by the Queen now completely overwhelmed Duan Gujin.

"Your Majesty the Queen, we truly did not intend to intrude here. We are your friends, and we have a common enemy - the Netherworld Dark Clan!"

Duan Gujin's eyes flashed as he spoke to the Queen.

"Don't overestimate yourselves, members of the Human Clan. You can't even defeat us; do you really think such a disorganized bunch of you could win against the Netherworld Dark Clan? You are vastly inferior in strength compared to them!"

The Queen reprimanded angrily.

Duan Gujin scoffed: "Your Majesty the Queen, you must be aware that although some members of the Netherworld Dark Clan have invaded the Human Clan's continent, those of the Netherworld Dark Clan have ultimately been exterminated! The Human Clan has even completely eradicated three Demon Kings of the Netherworld Dark Clan! The reason we mistakenly intruded into your territory is that we accidentally approached a Netherworld Wormhole and were then transported here!"

"Did you enter through a Netherworld Wormhole?"

The Queen expressed interest.

"Yes, we previously encountered something similar to an Insect Cocoon, and afterwards, we were transported here by a powerful Transmission Energy!"

Duan Gujin recounted everything that had happened to the Queen.

The Queen furrowed her brows slightly and fell into thought.

After a while, she had others lock Duan Gujin and the other warriors from the Qiankun Continent up together.

Upon seeing the other warriors again, he immediately ingested some Detoxification Elixir Pills to prevent being poisoned.

Other warriors, seeing that Duan Gujin was locked up with them, quickly comforted him and repeatedly warned him not to consume any food provided by the Xingyu Clan.

"Could it be that they became like this after eating the food here?"

Duan Gujin originally thought that the reason why the warriors here were completely drained of Primordial Power was because the Xingyu Clan had secretly poisoned them.

But from the warnings of those warriors, he detected a different implication.

On second thought, he felt that as long as he did not consume anything given to him by the Xingyu Clan, he would be fine.

After swallowing the Detoxification Elixir Pills, he began to check the bodies of the other warriors.

After a good while, he finally finished examining all the warriors present.

"Even if I now know what poison they've been inflicted with, without Detoxification Elixir at hand, it's of no use!"

Duan Gujin sighed. He now finally understood the problem afflicting the warriors trapped here with him.

He knew that at this point, all he could do was place his hopes on the Queen showing mercy.

"How should I convince the Queen to cooperate with me?"

While he was lost in thought, suddenly, a clear female voice came from a distance.

"Open the door, and you there, come out!"

After a while, everyone saw a woman of the Female Xingyu Clan dressed in black approaching from the outside.

The Female Xingyu Clan member was beautiful, with an exquisite figure.

If not for the large wings on her back, all present would have seen her as a stunning beauty.

The majority of the warriors present, upon seeing her, actually showed a hint of fear in their eyes.

Duan Gujin was not clear on what the other warriors had previously experienced; he couldn't understand why the other warriors showed such terrified expressions upon seeing the Female Xingyu Clan member.

Seeing Duan Gujin being called out by the Female Xingyu Clan member, they even thought that he had caught her interest and started praying for him in their hearts.

Duan Gujin was unaware of the others' gazes, which looked at him as though he were a dead man. Since the Female Xingyu Clan member before him had summoned him, he went out.

Although Duan Gujin didn't understand why, he now just wanted to know what the Queen had summoned him for.

"Her Majesty the Queen has summoned you; follow me, and I'll tell you what it's about when we get there!"

The Female Xingyu Clan member led Duan Gujin out of the cage.

"My friend from the Human Clan, I wish to know if your people have any way to exterminate the Netherworld Dark Clan?"

Upon seeing the Queen again, she asked directly.

"Your Majesty the Queen, are you implying that the Netherworld Dark Clan has launched an attack on you?"

Duan Gujin's eyes sparkled as he asked.

"Are you trying to threaten me?"

The Queen paused for a moment in thought, then responded angrily.

"I wouldn't dare. I'm just curious. Your Majesty the Queen, the Netherworld Dark Clan fears fire and lightning, as well as sunlight. Our Human Clan specifically targets their weaknesses! Generally, we would first expose a person under the sun. If a member of the Human Clan's body has been taken over by the Netherworld Dark Clan, they won't be able to endure it for long!"

"In most cases, if we need to eliminate members of the Netherworld Dark Clan, the best way is to use fire and lightning."
