Chapter 2917 The Effect of 20,000-Year Blood Wine!
Fan Lou would definitely interfere in the mediation between the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves and the Dark Pufferfish.
While Fan Lou was obedient when following him, he was also an extremely capable existence. Feng Qing did not care about this previously. It was only when Fan Lou broke off relations with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves because of this matter that Feng Qing began to take this aspect seriously.
Fan Lou’s prowess lay not in his strength but in the fact that he could find the most harmonious way to get along with anyone.
During interactions, Fan Lou had the knack for making others instinctively want to get closer to him and develop a good impression of him. Fan Lou was one of the few people whom Feng Qing couldn’t find fault with after interacting with him.
With this trait of his, Fan Lou could subtly change the thoughts of the Dark Pufferfish members in the process of interacting with them.
If Fan Lou wanted to interfere and affect the reconciliation between the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves and the Dark Pufferfish, it would be very easy. Fan Lou was a cautious person. He must have thought it through thoroughly before breaking away from his control and breaking off ties with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.
It was because Feng Qing overly trusted Fan Lou that he didn’t spend too much effort on controlling Fan Lou. Otherwise, if he had controlled Fan Lou through the Faith Tree or the divine kingdom, there wouldn’t be so much trouble now.
In a situation where Fan Lou was unable to leave the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves, no matter how sad he was, he would have to work for them in order to survive.
Feng Qing was aware he was not a person who lacked vigilance. The reason such a situation happened was that his interaction with Fan Lou had caused him to let down his guard. Of course, this was also because Feng Qing was conceited and thought he could completely control Fan Lou.
All along, Feng Qing had never taken Fan Lou seriously, let alone treated him as a threat to the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. Feng Qing was filled with remorse. Despite his efforts in nurturing Fan Lou, the latter was actually going against the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves now.
Upon seeing that Feng Qing did not speak, Feng Nuo continued. “Lord Feng Qing’s matter concerns the future of our species. We have to resolve it no matter what. If there’s really no other way, we might as well find a chance to interact with Fan Lou. I believe that our enmity with Fan Lou has not reached that irreconcilable level!”
Feng Qing sighed heavily and said, “Feng Nuo, you haven’t interacted much with Fan Lou, so you don’t know much about him. Fan Lou’s thoughts are meticulous. If not for the fact that he had made thorough preparations in his heart, Fan Lou would not have dared to break off ties with our species.
“We might as well hand over more resources to the Andra clan to appease Fan Lou. It’ll be more convenient to ease the relationship by paying tribute to the Andra clan. The Andra clan’s displeasure with our species mainly arose because of Feng Xuan’s overstepping behavior. It has little to do with us. Feng Xuan is dead now, and half of the Andra clan’s anger has dissipated.
“As long as the benefits promised later can satisfy the Andra clan, they won’t make things too difficult for us after weighing the pros and cons. It’s worth it to bleed this time in exchange for the stable development of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.
“As long as my power can be enhanced further, I will find more support for the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves in the Honor Absent Parliament. Even if the Andra clan wants to settle scores with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves in the future, they will have to take a lot into consideration.
“The focus this time is not on Fan Lou nor the Dark Pufferfish. It’s on the Andra clan’s opinion of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. Isn’t the Andra clan dissatisfied with us because we have affected the benefits that the clan can obtain? I’ll take care of this myself. You don’t have to worry.
“After you go, you’ll need to attend to many of the clan’s affairs. Apart from providing resources to the Andra clan to appease their anger, the most important thing is to demonstrate our sincerity. Among the direct members of Feng Xuan’s lineage, there isn’t any particularly outstanding individual. Go and get rid of his lineage completely. Send their corpses to the Andra clan personally and ask for their forgiveness.”
Feng Qing had not said anything previously because he was thinking about how to deal with this matter. He had already thought it through. If he wanted to change the current situation of the Andra clan, he had to be ruthless. Of course, making this decision was also directly related to Feng Qing’s anger toward Feng Xuan.
Upon hearing Feng Qing’s arrangement, Feng Nuo’s expression changed suddenly. He had guessed that Feng Qing might take action against Feng Xuan’s lineage but did not expect his determination to be so resolute.
Feng Xuan’s bloodline was very closely associated with his bloodline, and the two bloodlines had undergone many marriage alliances. It would be very difficult for Feng Nuo to justify his actions to the members of his bloodline if he got rid of Feng Xuan’s bloodline.
However, Feng Nuo also understood he could not question Feng Qing’s decision.
Feng Qing was already extremely furious. If he pleaded for leniency, Feng Qing would eventually vent his anger on himself!
“Lord Feng Qing, don’t worry. I’ll definitely take care of everything you’ve arranged. It’s just that before I go, I still need you to contact the Andra clan. I have absolutely no authority within the Andra clan.”
Feng Qing hummed and continued to fall into deep thought.
…
Lin Yuan was attending a banquet hosted by the Elisa clan and was being treated as a VIP. Yi Xue, Shi Mei, and the others were exceptionally surprised by the treatment Lin Yuan received. While it was undeniable that Lin Yuan had helped the Elisa clan, there was truly no necessity for them to treat him in such a manner.
The Elisa clan’s standards for Lin Yuan were too high. If the Elisa clan hadn’t just given birth to a Bloodian Queen, everything would have been understandable, yet they had just given birth to a Bloodian Queen and should be in the highest state of pride.
The Elisa clan was very arrogant to the outside world. There were only two possibilities for such a situation to happen. Firstly, Lin Yuan’s actions had genuinely benefited the Elisa clan. Secondly, the Elisa clan had heard of the Elise clan before.
The Elise clan was also a Bloodian clan with a queen in power, and the Elisa clan was doing this to establish ties with them. Compared to the former, Yi Xue and Shi Mei felt that the latter was more likely.
Lin Yuan remained calm amidst the Elisa clan’s hospitality. During this banquet, Helena had toasted Lin Yuan no less than three times. Basically, everyone could tell that Helena was interested in Lin Yuan. Under normal circumstances, a young female Bloodian should appear noble and reserved in front of others, not warm and forthright.
Under the gazes of the other Bloodians present, Lin Yuan conversed with Qin Yu. Many of the Bloodian clans present had never heard of the Elise clan. The Andra clan may not be qualified to endorse Lin Yuan’s status, but the new Bloodian Queen and the Elisa clan were certainly qualified to do so.
At the end of the banquet, Qin Yu personally invited Lin Yuan for a chat. After the banquet ended, the Elisa clan would hold a large-scale banquet that was not only for the Bloodians.
At that time, all the factions present would have a chance to come to the territory of the Elisa clan again.
The Bloodian clans should have dispersed by now, but Yi Xue and Shi Mei were waiting for Lin Yuan with the members of the Andra and Allen clans. Through this banquet, both of them were even more determined to establish ties with Lin Yuan and the Elise clan.
Yi Xue and Shi Mei were in a state where they disliked each other, with Yi Xue blaming Shi Mei for snatching opportunities from the Andra clan. On the other hand, Shi Mei blamed Yi Xue for not sharing such opportunities with her.
“Shi Mei, don’t waste your time. His Grace Black Elise will definitely return to the Andra clan with me. Our Andra clan still has a collaboration to discuss with His Grace!”
Upon hearing Yi Xue’s words, Shi Mei rolled her eyes so hard it seemed they might roll into the sky. “Yi Xue, I’ve already told you that our clans have a cooperative relationship. Our two clans have encountered many challenges together and have had many marriage alliances.
“By doing this, you are destroying the relationship between us. Your Andra clan has clearly completed the deal with Lord Black, but now you’re saying that you want to make another deal with Lord Black.
“Aren’t you doing this to prevent the Allen clan from establishing contact with His Grace Black? Do our two clans truly need to regard each other as competitors and be on guard against one another?
“I’ll only say what needs to be said once. If you don’t change your mind after listening to me, then there won’t be any reason for our Allen clan to be on good terms with the Andra clan in the future!”
Shi Mei’s words to Yi Xue were not a threat. The Allen clan was slightly stronger than the Andra clan in terms of strength. The two clans had always been supporting each other all along. On many occasions, the Allen clan had generously offered opportunities to the Andra clan to help them grow rather than hoarding them for themselves. This was what an allied Bloodian clan should be doing.
The Allen had always been generous to the Andra clan, yet the latter was unwilling to share opportunities with them at this juncture. If the two sides continued to cooperate, the Allen clan would be at a disadvantage.
Upon hearing Shi Mei’s words, Yi Xue’s expression changed. “Shi Mei, what are you talking about? If I regarded you as competitors, why would I let Black Elise appear in front of you?” You’re overthinking this. After we complete our cooperation with the Elise clan, I will personally send His Excellency Black Elise to your Allen clan.”
Shi Mei sneered. Lin Yuan was clearly interested in the Elisa clan and requested Yi Xue to bring him over. Under Lin Yuan’s request, Yi Xue had no way of rejecting him. Otherwise, Yi Xue would certainly prefer to keep Lin Yuan in the Andra clan.
Lin Yuan was not someone who would listen to Yi Xue’s arrangements and requests. Yi Xue did not have the ability to decide where Lin Yuan would go, let alone personally send him to the Allen clan.
“Yi Xue, since you put it that way, then let’s rely on our own capabilities!”
Shi Mei ignored Yi Xue and quietly waited for Lin Yuan with the Allen clan.
In Qin Yu’s private hall…
Qin Yu was bowing in front of Lin Yuan with a look of reverence and gratitude.
“Lord, try the blood wine that our Elisa clan has hidden for nearly 20,000 years. This jar of nearly 20,000-year-old blood wine will immediately be absorbed by the body to strengthen the body. Our Elisa clan only has two jars of this old blood wine left. If you like to drink it, I’ll pack the other jar for you before you leave!”
Lin Yuan took a sip of the blood wine in his cup. Its spiciness made his face turn red. However, as Qin Yu had said, this blood wine was indeed extremely beneficial to the body. Lin Yuan felt the energy in the blood wine spread from his abdomen to his entire body, cleansing it. His body was covered in sweat, and his physique had been strengthened.
There were no side effects to strengthening one’s physical fitness. Lin Yuan did not stand on ceremony with Qin Yu. He downed the blood wine in his cup and drank a few more.
After drinking three cups of blood wine, Lin Yuan realized that his body was rejecting the energy in the blood wine. This meant that the energy in the blood wine could not be absorbed by his body indefinitely. Many treasures had restrictions on the human body, especially those that could be used to increase lifespan.
Lin Yuan did not like the taste of blood wine, and his body’s need for blood wine had reached a saturation point. However, Lin Yuan still decided to take the two jars of blood wine, as they were very important to the members of Sky City.
With these two jars of blood wine, not only could Lin Yuan improve the physical fitness of all the members of the Sky City, but he could also select a few outstanding white-clothed followers to nurture.
Lin Yuan was now the actual controller of the Elisa clan, so there was no need to be polite with Qin Yu. If Lin Yuan wanted to repay the Elisa clan, it would be more useful to provide them with spirit qi crystals. With Lin Yuan in control of the Elisa clan, he would nurture them in the future.
“These two jars of blood wine are useful to me. Qin Yu, help me pack them before I leave. The Scarlet Territory is rich in blood-type spiritual ingredients. The Elisa clan doesn’t lack blood-type spiritual ingredients. What they lack is pure spirit qi.
“I’ll provide you with some pure spirit qi. You can stay behind to use it yourself or distribute it to the members you like. I remember you saying that you have two top Bloodian Kings under you who have the chance to step into the queen’s bloodline.
“If these two really have the opportunity to reach the juncture of bloodline enhancement in the future, I can help them transform like I helped you. However, before helping your two subordinates increase their bloodlines, you have to think about whether the increase in their bloodlines will affect you. If it affects you, then there’s no need for them to increase their bloodline. You have to guarantee that you can manage the Elisa clan for me!”
