FULL NOVELXO What if Lin Yuan had truly taken a liking to Feng Xuan and was willing to stand up for him? If Lin Yuan returned and discovered that Feng Xuan, whom he had previously healed, was injured again, it would lead to him having an issue with the Andra clan. It wouldn't be good if it affected Lin Yuan's relationship with the Andra clan.
Andre didn't want either side of the conflict to end in fatalities. However, Feng Xuan's attacks were fatal, making it abnormally difficult for Andre.
Anger kept surging in Andre's heart. The Chaos Wind Demon Wolves were merely a dependent species. How could their affairs affect the Andra clan at every turn. If so, what was the use of nurturing such a dependent species!? Even without the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves, the Andra clan still had many choices when it came to dependent species.
At present, Feng Xuan was in a very strange state. While he was relentlessly targeting Fan Lou, he experienced not only anger and satisfaction but also a sense of liberation. Feng Xuan was not as blinded by anger as Andre had thought. On the contrary, Feng Xuan's mind was exceptionally clear.
Over the years, besides himself, Feng Qing had solely relied on Fan Lou. If Fan Lou were to perish, he who was favored by the Elise clan, would be Feng Qing's first choice. Feng Xuan decided to kill Fan Lou now.
Feng Xuan was much stronger than Fan Lou. His fierce attacks had already hurt Fan Lou's core. While Feng Xuan was attacking Fan Lou, Andre sent a message to Feng Qing. It was best to leave the matter to him to settle.
Andre had already made plans to completely kick out the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves when the Andra and Elise clans officially established relations and deepened their cooperation with the four major species of the Lonely River. At that time, it would be time to properly judge the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.
Through his understanding, Andre had already clarified that Fan Lou was mainly involved in the relationship between the Four Species Overlords of the Lonely River and he had little to do with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.
Fan Lou was not a member of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. He was taken in as one of them. If the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves could take in Fan Lou, so could the Bloodians. For the sake of the relationship with the Lonely River's Four Species Overlords, transforming Fan Lou into a Bloodian was quite worth it.
During this period of time, Feng Qing had been feeling uneasy. Originally, Feng Qing loved to admire and play with his collection of decorative vases in his spare time. Now, Feng Qing no longer had the mood to admire and play with them. A quiet person like Feng Qing was pacing back and forth in the room, thinking about how to regain the Andra clan's favor. Previously, the dependent species' leader, who was not valued by the Andra clan, had become close to the Andra clan's leader. This was a very bad sign for the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.
Feng Xuan was taken away by Andre. Feng Qing did not expect Feng Xuan to do anything for the Andra clan. He only hoped that Feng Xuan wouldn't bring trouble to the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves anymore.
Right after Feng Qing had this thought, he received a message from Andre. Upon reading the message, fury engulfed Feng Qing, filling his heart with boundless anger.
Feng Xuan actually dared to attack Fan Lou for no reason. Wasn't Feng Xuan clearly using this opportunity to vent his dissatisfaction toward him!
Strong winds condensed around Feng Qing's body, and his figure swept into the distance with the strong winds. As soon as he arrived at the place Andre pointed at, he saw Feng Xuan's sharp claws reaching for Fan Lou's heart.
Fan Lou, who was covered in blood, found himself unable to resist.
Despite his anger, Feng Qing knew one thing in his heart. Andre must have his reasons for not killing Feng Xuan directly. If Feng Xuan dared to do this, it must have something to do with the Elise clan. Therefore, when Feng Qing stopped Feng Xuan, he did not kill him. Instead, he blocked Feng Xuan's attack.
Feng Qing hurriedly enveloped Fan Lou in wind-elemental energy. Through the energy, Feng Qing could sense that Fan Lou's aura had already weakened considerably. He hurriedly took out some top-notch medicinal herbs and fed them to Fan Lou, saving his life.
At present, Feng Qing was not in the mood to care about the problem of Fan Lou's roots. It appeared that Fan Lou's roots must have been severely damaged.
Feng Qing first bowed to Andre.
Andre said coldly, "Your Chaos Wind Demon Wolves are really troublesome. How dare you commit murder on the Andra clan's territory! Feng Qing, you specially brought your two subordinates to our Andra clan. These two must be your right-hand men! However, they didn't appear to be very submissive."
With that, Andre turned around and left. He couldn't be bothered to continue talking nonsense with Feng Qing. Andre would report this matter to the Elders of the clan. The replacement of the dependent species had now become an urgent matter.
Feng Qing wanted to explain to Andre but did not know how to explain everything that was happening in front of him!
Feng Qing looked at Feng Xuan with a malicious expression and asked coldly, "Feng Xuan, why are you doing this? I need you to give me an explanation for attacking Fan Lou!"
Feng Xuan felt very regretful that he did not manage to kill Fan Lou. He was fully aware of the gravity of his actions and that the injuries sustained by Fan Lou were beyond the need for treatment. In any case, it was very difficult for the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves' resources to heal Fan Lou's damaged roots. Even if they could treat Feng Qing, they would not be willing to invest such resources.
Feng Xuan knew Feng Qing too well. The Chaos Wind Demon Wolf's high-quality resources had always been reserved exclusively for Feng Qing's use. On the other hand, Lin Yuan, who had healed his damaged roots, was capable of healing Fan Lou's injuries.
However, since he had already hooked up with Lin Yuan, there was no chance for Fan Lou to establish any connection with the Elise clan.
No matter how grateful the Lonely River's Four Species Overlords were to Fan Lou, it was impossible for them to fork out resources to treat his injuries.
"Lord Feng Qing, I made a move on Fan Lou because he has been suppressing me all along. This is a personal grudge between Fan Lou and me. I'm sorry. I didn't expect to bring trouble to Lord Feng Qing again. I hope you can understand!"
Feng Xuan was still addressing Feng Qing as Lord, but his words were no longer as respectful as before. The respect Feng Xuan previously showed toward Feng Qing was not only because of his bloodline, but also largely rooted in fear. Now that he had Lin Yuan to rely on, he no longer feared Andre and thus had no reason to fear Feng Qing either.
Upon hearing Feng Xuan's words, Feng Qing was so angry that he laughed. He narrowed his eyes, looked at Feng Xuan, and his tone turned from cold to calm. "Why do I have to understand you after what you've done? Feng Xuan, do you know how badly your actions in the Andra clan have affected our Chaos Wind Demon Wolves?
"You have parents, family, and siblings in the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. Shouldn't you take them into consideration before taking such actions?"
Feng Qing's words seemed to resonate with Feng Xuan, stirring up a sense of excitement. "Lord Feng Qing, do you believe that my intention in reaching out to the Elise clan was not in consideration of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves?! If we could establish a relationship with the Elise clan, our species would be able to obtain more opportunities. Why would we remain completely under the control of the Andra clan as we are now? Not only do you not understand me, but you also punished me for this!
"Lord Feng Qing, my injuries were healed by Black Elise. I've already established a relationship with the Elise clan. Didn't you see that even the Andra Elders can't do anything to me?!" contemporary romance
Feng Qing was surprised to learn that pureblood Bloodian youth from the Elise clan could heal Feng Xuan's injuries. However, establishing a relationship with the Elise clan was not a reason for Feng Xuan to make the Andra clan unhappy.
The Andra clan had already made it clear that they did not like the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves interacting with the Elise clan. Even if they really wanted to interact with the Elise clan, it should be done discreetly, not in a blatant manner like Feng Xuan did.
Even if Lin Yuan had healed Feng Xuan's injuries, there was no guarantee that he would really use Feng Xuan again.
The Andra clan was also in contact with the Elise clan. They definitely had a much higher chance of gaining the favor of the Elise clan than Feng Xuan. Even if it was to give face to the Andra clan, the Elise clan would never take in a dependent species from the Andra clan. It was precisely because of this that Feng Qing was so against contact with the Elise clan.
"Feng Xuan, since you're back, stay by my side for now. I'll arrange for someone to treat Fan Lou's injuries. Afterward, you are not allowed to scheme against Fan Lou again!
"Fan Lou is related to the Four Species Overlords of the Lonely River. They are extremely beneficial to our Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. Because we traded resources with these four species, the strength of our Elders has increased.
"If you can maintain a good relationship with the Elise clan in the future and persuade them to accept our Chaos Wind Demon Wolves, not only will I hand over the original guards to you again, but I will also make you the Outer Court Supervisor of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves."
Given Feng Qing's temper, if he didn't clearly know that Feng Xuan had a relationship with the Elise clan, coupled with the fact that the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves had lost the Andra clan's favor, and the chances of the Andra clan putting them in an important position again were slim, Feng Qing would have never made such a compromise.
Because Fan Lou had obtained the resources provided by Lin Yuan, he was much stronger than before. However, Fan Lou had been hiding his strength and had not revealed his power.
In order to ensure that he could be taken in by the Bloodians in the future, Fan Lou's injuries were not fake. Fan Lou had indeed fallen into a state of unconsciousness for a while, but the medicinal herbs that Feng Qing had fed him had allowed him to recover a portion of his vitality. Even though his breathing was weak, he could hear the conversation between Feng Qing and Feng Xuan.
Fan Lou was surprised because Feng Qing didn't punish Feng Xuan for treating him like this. Instead, he returned the power that he had just been conferred to Feng Xuan. His current situation was very similar to Feng Xuan's.
Fan Lou's heart turned cold toward the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves again.
…
Lin Yuan had always been in the Scarlet Territory and could receive Fan Lou's message through the Thoughts Letter Paper.
Upon learning about Fan Lou's situation, Lin Yuan immediately assured him. "Fan Lou, your injuries won't be in vain. Although I won't allow you to establish a connection with my Bloodian bloodline and I am unable to heal the source of your injuries, after you transform into a Bloodian, I can help you enhance your bloodline and let you become a pureblood Bloodian step by step. You were the one who suggested the plan to join the Bloodians to me. The suffering you're going through now can help you evolve better in the future!"
Upon reading Lin Yuan's message, Fan Lou, who was lying on the bed, felt a warm feeling in his heart. Lin Yuan would not be like Feng Qing, who would always make empty promises to him. However, every time Lin Yuan rewarded him, he would give him what he needed the most. His current injuries were not for Lin Yuan's sake but for his own.
His injuries were like a pledge of allegiance, showing the Andra clan that he, an outsider, was abnormally miserable in the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. Only then might the Andra clan consider taking him in as a Bloodian.
…
Lin Yuan had already arrived at Elisa clan's territory. The Bloodians who were traveling with Lin Yuan gave up on going on when they reached the edge of Elisa's territory because going further was equivalent to provoking the Elisa clan.
Most of the clans in the Scarlet Territory that had the bloodline of a king maintained a respectful attitude toward those clans that had the bloodline of a queen. This was especially true for a clan like the Elisa clan, which was about to have another queen.
Lin Yuan was still with the Andra clan's leader, Yi Xue. Since the blood pool had yet to open, it would be useless for Lin Yuan to infiltrate the Elisa clan's territory. Furthermore, the blood tide would dissipate from the Elisa clan's territory.
With the dissipating blood tide, he could then determine the exact location of the Elisa clan's blood pool. By that time, Liu Yao and Liu Chen would take action according to Lin Yuan's plan.
After Liu Chen and Liu Yao gained control of the star pirates, they understood how the star pirates communicated with each other. Liu Chen and Liu Yao discovered that there were a large number of star pirates near the Scarlet Territory, who would plunder the merchant groups that entered and left the Scarlet Territory.
The star pirates who dared to attack the Bloodians were much stronger than the ones who had besieged Treasure City.
Liu Chen and Liu Yao gathered these star pirates and surrounded the territory of the Elisa clan from the outside. Then, they gradually narrowed the encirclement.
It was impossible for the Bloodians who were preparing to share the blood tide outside the Elisa clan's territory to help the Elisa clan fight those powerful star pirates. They would definitely retreat into the Elisa clan.
The Bloodian clans were not united to begin with, so the major clans would prioritize protecting their own interests. Once the Andra clan was in chaos, Lin Yuan could take the opportunity to take action.
Unfortunately, because they did not have enough time, Liu Chen and Liu Yao were not well-prepared and did not have enough star pirates under their command.
Despite that, it was sufficient for Lin Yuan to carry out the plan!
