Chapter 2961 The Queen’s Blood Bestowed!
Chapter 2961  The Queen’s Blood Bestowed!

The expression on Ink Thorn’s face kept changing as he listened to Fan Lou’s words. Cold sweat began to seep out of his forehead and back.

The words of Fan Lou were extremely clear.

It was also the first time in a long time that Fan Lou had taken the initiative to criticize Ink Thorn.

Apart from expressing his dissatisfaction with Ink Thorn, he also reminded Ink Thorn not to forget his purpose of representing the Dark Pufferfish in the Scarlet Territory.

Befriending the Andra clan would not bring any benefits to the Dark Pufferfish.

Fan Lou’s sharp reminder brought Ink Thorn back to his senses. Ink Thorn quickly realized the problem with his current method.

In fact, befriending the Andra clan was not as beneficial as he had imagined.

Like Fan Lou, he had submitted to Lin Yuan. He had come to the Scarlet Territory to cooperate with Fan Lou, so he should follow his will. His previous approach had already deviated from this point.

Ink Thorn was afraid that Lin Yuan would be dissatisfied with his actions. Once Lin Yuan was dissatisfied with him, he could be replaced at any time.

His status might be important in the Dark Pufferfish, but he was dispensable to Lin Yuan.

Thinking of this, Ink Thorn hurriedly bent down and said, “Brother Fan Lou, I was insensible. I actually didn’t understand what I should do. I’m extremely sorry. I’ll immediately make adjustments. I definitely won’t do anything that will affect you in the future!”

Seeing that Ink Thorn had listened, Fan Lou reached out and patted his shoulder.

“It’s good that you can figure out matters yourself. You know very well what kind of attitude I’ve always had towards you. If you cooperate with me, I have the right to command you.

“You should be one of my subordinates, but when have you ever seen me order you around? I’ve always treated you like a friend. But you have to understand what you should do and what you should do!

“You said something wrong just now. What you’re doing is not affecting me, but Lord Lin Yuan’s plan. You’re more familiar with the envoys of the other three species of the Lonely River than I am. I hope that you can represent me and give them some advice. From now on, keep a distance from the Andra clan!

“The Dark Pufferfish can produce toxins that restrict the abilities of water creatures. You are an extremely important resource to all the Bloodians. If you get too close to one of the clans, the other clans will definitely think something is wrong. There will likely be twists and turns!”

Fan Lou’s status in Lin Yuan’s heart had increased greatly, but he did not have the chance to come into contact with the other members of Sky City. Therefore, no matter how stupid the people of the Lonely River were, Fan Lou had to befriend them.

When Fan Lou was working for Lin Yuan, he had contributed as much as he could and tried his best to help Lin Yuan.

However, Fan Lou also had to consider himself.

Ink Thorn was extremely touched by Fan Lou’s words. He could feel that Fan Lou really treated him as a brother.

Even biological brothers might not be able to help him analyze the pros and cons like Fan Lou.

“Brother Fan Lou, if I succeed in the future, I will definitely do my best to repay you! From now on, no matter what happens, I’ll inform you immediately. I hope you can help me make more decisions in the future.”

Fan Lou said with a smile, “Since you’ve already figured out the pros and cons of this matter, it’s over. After this operation ends, you’ll most likely return to the Lonely River. When we return, the envoys of the four species will definitely be rewarded.

“It’s all thanks to you that my mission was completed so smoothly. If Lord Lin Yuan asks me about you, I will put in a good word for you. I believe that you will definitely succeed one day!”

Fan Lou was just being polite. He could not say for sure if Ink Thorn would be able to stand out in the future. However, from what Ink Thorn had done recently, he could not be considered a smart person. Lin Yuan had never liked idiots.

Although Fan Lou’s words were polite, they greatly encouraged Ink Thorn. This was because all the actions of the Lonely River’s four species were led by the Dark Pufferfish. In addition, Ink Thorn and Fan Lou were the closest.

Even if the other envoys were unwilling to admit it, Ink Thorn could still be considered the leader of their operations.

…

Ink Thorn conveyed Fan Lou’s teachings to the rest. Ink Thorn’s words enlightened the other envoys. The three of them could not help but express their gratitude to Ink Thorn.

…

Yi Xue, the leader of the Andra clan, anxiously awaited updates from Ink Thorn and his companions. Despite the loss of Fan Lou, who had been selected by Qin Yu to join the Elisa clan, the Andra clan maintained its ties with the four species of the Lonely River, enabling them to negotiate deals with them.

Recently, Yi Xue had invited those envoys many times in exchange for more Dark Pufferfish venom because the Bloodians had already begun to take action against the mermaids.

In order to prevent losing too many members, the various clans wanted to obtain the opportunity to trade with the Dark Pufferfish. This made the Andra clan, which was on good terms with the four species of the Lonely River, famous.

As it was not difficult to exchange for the Dark Pufferfish venom from Ink Thorn, Yi Xue had traded a lot of the venom. This allowed the Andra clan to earn a lot of resources from the other Bloodians.

Of course, this method of getting rich also caused dissatisfaction among many Bloodian clans, especially those who were on good terms with the Andra clan. These Bloodian clans had hoped that the Andra clan would introduce them to the Lonely River’s four species, but the Andra clan did not have such intentions at all. They were only thinking of ways to earn resources.

The Allen clan was already separated from the Andra clan because of the previous incident. Due to the Andra clan’s unwillingness to recommend the four Lonely River species to the Allen clan, the latter publicly expressed that they had broken off relations with the Andra clan, which made things extremely ugly.

Actually, Yi Xue had always regretted making Lin Yuan unhappy because of his hesitation.

Since he could not save his relationship with Lin Yuan, Yi Xue hoped that he could establish a relationship with the Elisa clan.

Because Qin Yu had become a Bloodian Queen, the Elisa clan was at their peak in the Scarlet Territory. If they could build a relationship with the Elisa Clan, the Andra Clan would also enter the fast track of development.

The best way to get close to the Elisa Clan was to get back on good terms with Fan Lou.

Apart from not being able to guarantee Fan Lou’s safety in the Andra clan, Yi Xue felt that he had always treated Fan Lou well.

After all, Fan Lou had been a member of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves at that time. It was not appropriate for the Andra Clan to directly interfere in their internal affairs.

Furthermore, Fan Lou was not that important in Yi Xue’s eyes. He never expected that an inconspicuous fellow like Fan Lou would be fancied by Qin Yu.

The blood wine had been meticulously prepared, a lavish gesture meant to honor Fan Lou and Yi Xue. Though using thousand-year-old blood wine might seem extravagant, it was deemed necessary to convey sincerity, prompting the use of several jars.

However, despite the preparations, neither Fan Lou nor Ink Thorn, along with the other envoys, made an appearance.

After a prolonged wait, Yi Xue reluctantly dispatched someone to reach out to Ink Thorn and the others. Eventually, word came from Ink Thorn, expressing his regrets and citing inconvenience as the reason for his absence. This news fueled Yi Xue’s anger.

It was true that the Andra clan had made efforts to reach out to the four species of the Lonely River, and reciprocally, the envoys had shown interest in fostering friendship with the Andra clan. Such efforts had led to numerous successful deals between the two sides.

Why did the envoys stop being ambiguous with the Andra clan after meeting Fan Lou? Why did they distance themselves from the Andra clan?

Ink Thorn would definitely not cut ties with the Andra clan on the surface. This would not benefit him at all. The best way to avoid contact with the Andra clan was to slowly alienate them. That way, the Andra clan wouldn’t be able to find trouble with him.

The four species of the Lonely River did not have a strong backer like Fan Lou in the Scarlet Territory. They had to be careful.

…

Qin Yu had been paying close attention to Fan Lou and knew that he had rejected the Andra clan’s invitation.

Tonight, Qin Yu invited Fan Lou to dinner. While they were eating, Qin Yu asked, “Why have you been staying with the Andra clan? Do you have any conflicts with them?”

Fan Lou said truthfully, “Your Excellency Qin Yu, I didn’t stay with the Andra clan previously. I stayed in the Andra clan’s Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. I didn’t have much contact with the Andra clan.

“The Andra clan thinks that I’m of some use because I have a close relationship with the four species of the Lonely River. When I was dealing with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves, they left me with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. I don’t have any conflicts with the Andra clan, but that doesn’t mean that we need to interact more.

“It’s not difficult to guess why the Andra clan contacted me. It must be because they want to use me to cozy up to the Elisa clan. If I take the initiative to accept the invitation, wouldn’t it be equivalent to giving the Andra clan a chance to climb up?”

Fan Lou had always shown enough respect to Qin Yu, but Fan Lou did not treat her as a high and mighty existence. Instead, he treated Qin Yu as Lin Yuan’s subordinate.

Therefore, Fan Lou addressed Qin Yu as Your Excellency, not Lordess.

He was very honest with Qin Yu.

Qin Yu really liked the way Fan Lou talked to her and interacted with her. If Fan Lou was overly respectful at every second, Qin Yu would really have nothing to talk to him about.

“If Lord Lin Yuan hadn’t made the request, or if it weren’t for your mission, there’d be no need for you to initiate contact with the Andra clan. Your future won’t solely revolve around the Bloodians anymore.

“Lord Lin Yuan expressed his desire for me to assist you in joining the Honor Absent Parliament. I recall that the leader of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves is also a member. However, since your strength hasn’t reached the Holy Spirit level, even if I recommend you, your status within the Honor Absent Parliament will be limited. Membership status there is primarily based on strength.

“Though your influence within the Honor Absent Parliament may initially be modest, it will still afford you certain privileges. Thus, you can begin looking ahead.

“Until you officially join the Honor Absent Parliament, I won’t introduce you to other factions. Once you’re a member, I’ll broaden your connections.

“You’ve recently become a pureblood Bloodian. I urge you to concentrate on enhancing your strength in the days ahead. Should you require resources, don’t hesitate to inform me. I’ll gladly assist you.”

Ever since Qin Yu sensed how much Lin Yuan valued Fan Lou, she had the intention to befriend him.

She and Fan Lou were both under Lin Yuan’s command. With Lin Yuan’s resources, she could make Fan Lou a genuine Bloodian Queen.

If she befriended Fan Lou now, she might be able to borrow his strength in the future.

Fan Lou felt deeply moved. Lin Yuan had given him a fresh start in life.

As Lin Yuan had been discussing Fan Lou’s arrangements, he had presented them with remarkable simplicity. Fan Lou was aware of Lin Yuan’s plans for him, thanks to Qin Yu.

In Qin Yu’s presence, Fan Lou concealed his emotions, expressing respect by clenching his fist.

“Your Excellency Qin Yu, Lord Lin Yuan has already provided resources for me to enhance my strength. I will utilize them diligently. Thank you for your care. I am committed to focusing on my strength during this period. If you require my assistance in this operation, please do not hesitate to inform me. Frankly, I have never battled a mermaid before!”

Qin Yu interjected, “The Elisa clan has specialized warriors for combating mermaids. There’s no need for you to take action. While Lord Lin Yuan has furnished resources to enhance your strength, he may not have included Bloodian blood essence, correct?

“To aid in fortifying your bloodline, I will offer you a portion of my blood essence. This Queen-level blood essence will assist in elevating your Bloodian lineage.”

This time, Fan Lou did not reject Qin Yu. He bowed to her and said, “Then I’ll thank you in advance!”

…

While the Bloodians were heading toward the Blue Shark Sea, Lin Yuan had already brought the Cleansing Breath Soil and the Titan Rhinoceros Elephants to the King Blood Jackals’ territory.

These Titan Rhinoceros Elephants were not easy to settle down. Firstly, they were too big. Secondly, it was a huge problem for these Titan Rhinoceros Elephants to survive and eat.

Lin Yuan had just solved the problem of food and clothing in the faith country and the granary had yet to be built. He did not have that many Soldier Ration Radishes to feed the Titan Rhinoceros Elephants.

For the foreseeable future, Lin Yuan’s resources could barely maintain the Titan Rhinoceros Elephants.

If he wanted to solve all the problems, he would have to wait until Four Seasons Mountain transformed into a faerie and fused with the Cleansing Breath Soil.

The only way to satisfy the Titan Rhinoceros Elephants’ appetite was to let Four Seasons Mountain become a high-level faerie and combine it with the Cleansing Breath Soil.
