Chapter 1269: Possibility of the Floating Island Whale’s Early Hatching
“City Lord, we see your requests and will do everything as you say. However, I have a piece of news. May I trade this information with you for enough resources that will allow the Sea Bliss Clan to rebuild?”
Lin Yuan lowered his head to look at the kneeling Qi Haitao. He became interested as Qi Haitao had to have a big piece of news to muster up enough courage to propose a trade.
“If this news is valuable, I will give the Qi family 5,000,000 Radiance dollars to rebuild when you leave the Sea Bliss Clan,” said Lin Yuan nonchalantly.
Qi Haitao’s eyes flashed.
The last time he had come to Sky City’s Star Web private faction territory, he had been discussing business with the City Lord as an equal.
But now, they were desperate beggars before the City Lord.
It was not up to Qi Haitao but Qi Heng whether he would accept Lin Yuan’s offer.
As such, Qi Haitao fixed his gaze on Qi Heng.
Qi Heng nodded helplessly.
The source of information came from the few islands that the Sea Bliss Clan had bought.
…
Sky City would discover this secret once they took possession of the islands. If they revealed it now, they would be able to receive resources in return. Hence, this was the best option.
However, 5,000,000 Radiance dollars was too little. One Bronze/Epic fey was already worth 30,000,000 Radiance dollars.
Given that Qi Heng was a Cla.s.s 4 Creation Master, he would be able to generate 5,000,000 Radiance dollars’ worth of income in one or two days.
Essentially, he could not accept Lin Yuan’s offer.
However, Qi Heng knew that the Sea Bliss Clan was in no position to negotiate with the City Lord of Sky City. If he tried to negotiate and ended up aggravating the City Lord, he might decide not to help the Sea Bliss Clan at all. The Sea Bliss Clan would be well and truly finished if that happened.
Qi Haitao said, “City Lord, a huge whale fall took place not long ago near the islands our Sea Bliss Clan bought.”
Lin Yuan’s eyes immediately widened.
d.a.m.n! What was going on? Why was he running into one opportunity after another these days?
A whale fall was a naturally-occurring source of nourishment for the ocean.
One small whale fall would be like a feast to the creatures on the seafloor, much less a large one.
When hundreds of whales died, and their carca.s.ses were left at the bottom of the seafloor, it would result in an unimaginable amount of nourishment for the ocean. It would be enough to turn the area into a super fish farm for deep-sea fish-species feys. Any fish-species fey living in the area would grow up rapidly.
As the carca.s.ses of the whale-species feys decomposed, the currents would propel a large amount of nourishment to the surface of the sea. This nourishment could even trigger mutations in the aquatic feys living at the surface of the sea.
However, a large whale fall was not solely beneficial for fish-species feys but could even provide a major opportunity for the Floating Island Whale in the Spirit Lock spatial zone.
If Qi Haitao was speaking the truth, his Floating Island Whale could use this opportunity to use the energy from the whale fall and hatch sooner than expected.
He would also be able to obtain many unhatched Island Whales from where the whale fall was.
Lin Yuan looked at Qi Haitao solemnly and said, “If you’re telling the truth and there truly is a large whale fall near your islands, I can promise to keep the Qi family safe for three years. Three years is enough time for the Qi family to rise from the ashes and start another rising faction. At that point, your enemies will have to issue another blood pact ultimate fight challenge to you if they want to go after you. This way, you’ll have time to prepare.”
Qi Haitao and Qi Heng were utterly confused as they did not understand what Lin Yuan meant.
Once Sky City destroyed Connected Beast Park, the Qi family would still retain their combat power despite losing all their resources.
It was impossible that anyone would target them at that point.
Hence, both Qi Haitao and Qi Heng did not take Lin Yuan’s words seriously.
Nonetheless, they both looked at Lin Yuan with grat.i.tude.
Now that the matter was settled, Qi Heng and Qi Haitao prepared themselves to leave.
But, Lin Yuan said, “Connected Beast Park has struck up a relations.h.i.+p with Whale Ocean Commerce, and they are currently working together. You must have heard that Whale Ocean Commerce already has two experts with immortal power.
“Don’t reveal the news that Sky City is helping the Sea Bliss Clan with the blood pact ultimate fight. It’ll be best if only the two of you know and return home acting as though Sky City rejected you. The more people are involved, the looser their lips will be. If the Sea Bliss Clan leaks the news and Connected Beast Park catches wind of it, they can go to Whale Ocean Commerce for help. If that happens, your ending can only be death even if Sky City helps you.”
Qi Haitao and Qi Heng immediately understood what Lin Yuan meant.
The Sea Bliss Clan was currently a wreck, and some might have joined the Miao family secretly.
If Connected Beast Park heard about this, the results would be disastrous.
However, Lin Yuan’s tone was too merciless! He only mentioned that the Qi family would end up dead. Wouldn’t the thearch-cla.s.s experts dispatched by Sky City to help the Sea Bliss Clan be killed too? Or could it be that the City Lord did not care if his faction’s thearch-cla.s.s experts lived or died? Was it because Sky City had so many thearch-cla.s.s experts that it did not matter if a few died? Or was it that the City Lord was just downright evil?
The misunderstood Lin Yuan was not afraid of Connected Beast Park seeking help from Whale Ocean Commerce at all.
This was because he had received word from the Invisible Demon before he came to Star Web that it hoped to go through the Source-type Cleansing as soon as possible to evolve into a Cla.s.s 12 dimensional lifeform.
There was only one day left before the blood pact ultimate fight between the Sea Bliss Clan and Connected Beast Park, which was more than enough time for the Invisible Demon to go through the Source-type Cleansing.
Thus, the Invisible Demon would have reached immortal level when it was helping the Sea Bliss Clan with their blood pact ultimate fight.
Even if the news was leaked at that time and Connected Beast Park went to borrow immortal experts from Whale Ocean Commerce, the Invisible Demon would still stand a fighting chance.
Lin Yuan would recall it back into his shadow if it really could not hold out.
Given the Invisible Demon’s hidden abilities, even experts of the same level who were skilled at investigating Immortal Breed feys would find it difficult to detect the Invisible Demon.
