Chapter 370: More Trouble
The moon hung high in the sky . The night was as dark as the ink .
On the little path, Ling Xian and Yan Xiong Fei frowned as they listened to the young man recite the story .
Slowly, Ling Xian grasped the situation .
Every single controlling force on the Trading Island breeds beasts to help increase the fighting abilities of their clan . Because adult beasts defy humans, most people choose to capture baby beasts and train them when they are young . This way, the beasts would be faithful and serve the people .
There are advantages and disadvantages with everything . Though this way ensures the beasts will listen to the rules, it requires a lot of spiritual stones . This is why only the controlling forces use this tactic .
The Yan Clan bred hundreds of beasts .
Just now, the beasts' caretakers fed these beasts the Dan of Breakthrough . However, different from their expectations, the beasts did not strengthen . On the contrary, they collapsed onto the ground, close to dying .
One should know that the Yan Clan had invested a lot of money to breed these beasts . Now that they were on the verge of death, it meant they had wasted their energy and it meant the Yan Clan's capability would not increase!
How can this not be a matter of great importance!
"Leader, think of a solution! The beasts cannot hold on much longer!" the young man was close to crying . He was one of the caretakers . Now that something so tragic had happened, how could he be in a good mood?
"Dammit, I am no alchemist . What solution do I have?" Yan Xiong Fei gritted his teeth . Even his toes knew that it problem was the Dan .
Why else would those beasts be spitting out white foam?
"Goddammit, I wasted my resources paying those alchemists!"
Yan Xiong Fei was enraged . However, he also knew that this was not a time to pinpoint who was at fault . At this point, he had to find a way to revive the beasts . Or else the Yan Clan would've wasted their efforts .
Thinking about all the spiritual stones he spent breeding the beasts, Yan Xiong Fei's heart was bleeding . But he was not an alchemist and he had no way of solving the problem . As he circled around, he mumbled, "Dammit, I cannot count on that group of trash . Even if they try to brew a Dan to cure the beasts, they may end up brew some kind of poison . "
"What do I do then? The beasts won't survive for long . Where do I find an alchemist in such a short amount of time?" Yan Xiong Fei continued to pace around in a panic .
Then, he suddenly remembered a rumor from two years ago . The rumor about the existence of a perfect Dan . His eyes brightened and quickly looked towards Ling Xian pleadingly .
Seeing this, Ling Xian took the hint . He pretended to be confused, hoping that Yan Xiong Fei would ask him himself .
You can run after someone to offer help, or wait till they ask you for help . The scenarios seem similar as the result is the same . However, reality is that the two scenarios are very different . The former would make you appear as a kind and helpful person . They would, of course, still thank you . But the latter, would really show how much others appreciate you .
If this was any other time, Ling Xian would've offered right away . It was not a big deal to him . But they were still discussing the matter of an alliance, he had to choose the latter option .
This would gain him more of a likelihood that the Yan Clan will agree . This was why Ling Xian was pretending to be dumb and awaited for Yan Xiong Fei to request first .
[What a fox . ]
