The second spiritual ingredient that Lin Yuan valued was called the Dragon Blood Nurturing Stone. It had the ability to speed up the nurturing of dragon-species feys.
The Dragon Blood Nurturing Stone, towering even above Lin Yuan, weighed at least a ton. Such a huge Dragon Blood Nurturing Stone could greatly accelerate the growth speed of dragon-species feys.
When Lin Yuan was in the main world, Long Tao had always provided him with dragon liver. However, in the Sky Beyond the Clouds, he would have to nurture his own dragon-species feys to obtain dragon liver. With Shiny's digestive ability, it wouldn't take long before it devoured all the dragon livers in Lin Yuan's inventory.
Apart from the Pregnant Water Sea Eye and the Dragon Blood Nurturing Stone, other spiritual ingredients were equally effective, but they were not very useful to Lin Yuan at the mont.
After Lin Yuan finished trading on the 14th floor, he followed Zhan Lu all the way to the 15th floor and proceeded to sift through a wide array of spiritual ingredients.
With an increasing number of resources being traded, Lin Yuan's demand for resources and his perspective were gradually expanding.
After all the transactions, Lin Yuan asked Spring and Zhan Lu to exchange for chips to pay for his expenses.
Lin Yuan would be staying in Fortune Treasure Palace for a while, so Zhan Lu did not have to entertain him imdiately.
Zhan Lu had many things to do at the mont as Lin Yuan had traded so many resources. Apart from that, the Fortune Treasure Palace also had other guests who required Zhan Lu's attention. Having spent nearly a full day with Lin Yuan, Zhan Lu's absence may have caused dissatisfaction among nurous VIPs.
Furthermore, Zhan Lu was aware that Lin Yuan had just arrived in Treasure City and most likely had his own matters to attend to. Zhan Lu did not want to disrupt Lin Yuan's plans and do things that would annoy him.
…
Kani and Yu Run had already chosen a room.
Kani contentedly explored the Fortune Treasure Palace's surroundings. Kani had stayed in the territory of the King Blood Jackals for a long ti and seldom had the opportunity to go out and enjoy the simple pleasure of walking around outside.
Despite being Lin Yuan's follower, Kani had never experienced hardship while being by his side. Lin Yuan consistently treated her with respect, and his two trusted aides, Spring and Winter, have started to acknowledge her contributions more. As she followed Lin Yuan, Kani felt a sense of hope perating her life.
On the other hand, Yu Run felt completely different from Kani. Yu Run had been waiting for Lin Yuan's return for quite so ti. According to Yu Run's original plan, he had not intended to stay there for long before returning to the chamber of comrce.
As the leader of the rchant groups, Yu Run had already asked the mbers to send a ssage to their leader. The Purple Feather Rain Pigeons were currently targeted by the Bloodwood Lion Bees and were in a precarious situation. It was really unreasonable for him to make the leader wait for him for almost a day.
Yu Run could not afford to wait for Lin Yuan there. If he couldn't return to the chamber of comrce, he wouldn't be able to inform the leader of the situation. Yu Run was deeply concerned that the leader would not regard his instructions as an important matter.
If they failed to gather the books from the chambers of comrce for Lin Yuan within three days, Lin Yuan would definitely be dissatisfied. At that ti, not only would he not be able to explain to Lin Yuan, but he would also not be able to ask Lin Yuan to help the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons get through their crisis. If that really happened, it would really be over!
Nevertheless, even if he wanted to leave now, Kani would definitely stop him without Lin Yuan's permission. This realization filled Yu Run with a sense of fear as he could still recall the mory of Kani instantly killing the Bloodwood Lion Bees' rchant groups even now.
Kani gazed at Yu Run, who was circling in front of her, and said, "You just have to wait patiently for Master to co back! The survival of the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons is fated. Worrying here won't change anything. If you make Master unhappy when he cos back later, don't bla for not reminding you!"
With Kani's strength, she would not have regarded a minor figure like Yu Run seriously at all. However, after these few days of interaction, Kani had developed a more favorable impression of Yu Run.
As the King Blood Jackal Queen, Kani had always admired lifeforms who displayed unwavering loyalty to their species. Yu Run's actions over the past few days had demonstrated his sincerity and commitnt toward the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons.
Upon hearing Kani's words, Yu Run did not dare to continue pacing. Having pondered for a mont, he asked, "Lordess Kani, there's sothing I wish to inquire about. May I have this opportunity?"
Kani had already expected that if Lin Yuan did not return, Yu Run would definitely ask her about the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons' way out.
Kani had accompanied Lin Yuan out for training. Even Spring and Winter understood that Lin Yuan's needs took precedence when they were out. Naturally, Kani wouldn't make any commitnts to Yu Run without considering Lin Yuan's needs first.
However, based on Kani's understanding of Lin Yuan, if the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons could genuinely offer assistance to Lin Yuan instead of attempting to take advantage of him, he wouldn't ignore their plight if they faced extermination. However, all of this depended on the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons having established a certain level of friendship with Lin Yuan.
Kani reminded Yu Run, "In the entire Treasure City, the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons are considered insignificant and are basically eliminated every day."
Yu Run was stunned for a mont before an ecstatic expression appeared on his face.
Even though the blonde woman before him was a servant to Lin Yuan, she still wasn't soone he could afford to overlook. Faced with his inquiry, Kani could choose not to respond. Engaging with him ant that Kani would at least give so advice.
Kani's words pierced Yu Run's heart, but he knew that Kani was right. Being weak in the Sky Beyond the Clouds was indeed the original sin.
Had the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons been strong enough, they wouldn't have been bullied and targeted by the Bloodwood Lion Bees. Furthermore, they wouldn't have disclosed information about the Water Fla Crystal Vein, leading it to fall into the hands of the Sword Feather Vultures.
What was even more hateful was that the Sword Feather Vultures had not offered protection to the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons even though they had benefited so much from them. Instead, they had directly thrown out the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons and used them as tools to appease the anger of the Bloodwood Lion Bees.
The Purple Feather Rain Pigeons could only silently endure all of this. There was no other explanation for their predicant except for their weakness.
However, considering the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons' bloodline and the lack of exceptionally talented individuals within the species, being able to maintain the current situation was already a stroke of luck!
Kani saw that Yu Run had taken her words to heart and did not refute them. The smile on Kani's face widened.
Kani did not intend to belittle the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons in front of Yu Run and trample on his dignity. On the contrary, Kani needed to let Yu Run grasp the reality of the situation first. Only when Yu Run faced reality and could see the urgent situation of the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons could Kani advise Yu Run.
Yu Run's current expression suggested that he also agreed with what Kani had said.
"Apart from becoming stronger, there's another way for a weak species to survive. That is to choose a species or faction that is truly powerful and then attach themselves to them. However, the weak species need to demonstrate their value.
"Instead of concerning yourself with peripheral matters right now, why don't you think about what benefits the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons can bring to the people you want to rely on? When you figure this out, many problems will be solved!"
Although Lin Yuan had not returned for such a long ti, Kani was not worried about him at all. Just as Yu Run acknowledged her strength, Kani was also well aware of Spring and Winter's capabilities. With them around, there were not many people who could threaten Lin Yuan's safety. Moreover, individuals like that wouldn't usually frequent a location like Fortune Treasure Palace.
…
When Lin Yuan returned to his residence, he had obtained nurous treasured books of Fortune Treasure Palace from Zhan Lu.
Lin Yuan had not forgotten that Yu Run was waiting for him.
Even though Lin Yuan had obtained nurous books from Fortune Treasure Palace, the books compiled by the chambers of comrce that Yu Run was helping him collect were also useful.
There was a lot of very basic information that was not recorded in Fortune Treasure Palace's books, as those books that contained overly basic knowledge were useless to the Fortune Treasure Palace.
However, the books from chambers of comrce also didn't docunt much. In order to enrich the content of their books, they would add a lot of basic information inside.
When Yu Run saw Lin Yuan, he hurriedly took two steps forward and bowed to greet him.
However, he did not dare to make a direct request to return to his species. Instead, he tried his best to express goodwill to Lin Yuan, saying, "Lord, I've already instructed my subordinates to help you collect the books. However, I'm uncertain of their progress. If you don't require my imdiate assistance, would you consider allowing to return to check on them?"
Yu Run's words were very sincere, but anyone could tell that he was just looking for an excuse.
Lin Yuan did not make things difficult for Yu Run and told Kani, "Since that's the case, Kani, accompany Yu Run to assess the situation! I'll entrust Yu Run's matters to you!"
Kani's interest was piqued when she heard Lin Yuan's words. Lin Yuan had asked her to be in charge of Yu Run; this naturally included the conflict between the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons and the Bloodwood Lion Bees.
Kani deeply appreciated Lin Yuan's generosity in allowing her the freedom to act independently rather than keeping her constantly by his side and letting her be a guard who could only follow orders.
"Master, don't worry. Leave this to . I will definitely do it well! When Yu Run cos back tomorrow morning, do you still want him to bring you around Treasure City?
Lin Yuan shook his head and said, "Kani, take my place and travel around Treasure City with Yu Run tomorrow. If you co across any resources that you think are not bad, kindly make the purchases on my behalf. I have other plans for the next few days, so I won't be going out!"
Lin Yuan had traded many resources from the Fortune Treasure Palace. Not only did he need to sort them out as soon as possible, but he also needed Genius to record the contents of the books quickly.
After he was done reading the Fortune Treasure Palace's books, it was very likely that the Treasure Convention would begin soon. Lin Yuan did not have that much ti to deal with other matters. Lin Yuan believed that Kani would be able to handle this matter well.
Yu Run was also very happy that Lin Yuan left the decision-making authority to Kani. He had interacted with Kani for the longest ti, and Kani had clearly shown her kindness earlier. If he sought Kani's help, it would be more effective than asking Lin Yuan to protect the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons. However, he could not imagine what value they could bring to Lin Yuan.
Just because Yu Run couldn't figure it out didn't an that Kani didn't have plans.
Treasure City was a very luxurious comrcial city. Lin Yuan needed to control a faction in Treasure City as an informant. There was no necessity to nurture this faction as it only needed to be able to convey the situation in Treasure City accurately to Lin Yuan. This faction also didn't need to be overly powerful as the stronger it beca, the more conspicuous it would be, making it difficult to operate discreetly. The Purple Feather Rain Pigeons happened to be suitable for such a role.
"Yu Run, are all decisions regarding the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons made by your leader? If your leader doesn't cooperate with , I'll appoint you as the leader. How does that sound? With you leading, the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons can at least secure a favorable position with ."
Kani's words were casual, but she had been watching Yu Run's expression as she spoke. Her words were a double temptation for Yu Run. Not only did it ensure the safety of the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons, but it also gave Yu Run a chance to beco their leader.
Kani saw the change in Yu Run's expression, prompting her to ponder another problem, which was whether a lifeform who wholeheartedly thought for the species would have the intention to overstep their bloodline and seize power for themselves.
Kani had been allowing the ambitions of the King Blood Jackals to grow. However, after becoming the King Blood Jackal Queen for a long ti, Kani found it increasingly challenging to think from the perspective of other King Blood Jackals. Yu Run's next answer gave Kani an answer.
"Lordess Kani, if our leader is unwilling to cooperate with you, I can lead the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons and be loyal to you! I appreciate you giving this opportunity!"
Apart from surprise and hesitation, Kani could also hear the shock in Yu Run's tone.
At that mont, Kani felt imnse gratitude that Lin Yuan had been willing to give her a chance back then. Kani was very well aware of how tough her attitude had been back then. The King Blood Jackals that she had nurtured were probably eager for her to die so that they could replace her!
