Chapter 1994 - 1994 I'm One of Lin Yuan's Subordinates!

1994 Im One of Lin Yuans Subordinates!

But once Creation Breed elemental source-type lifeforms died, all the elemental energy in their bodies would be stored in the Elemental Heart.

The Elemental Heart contained the specialties of the elemental source-type lifeform.

The Elemental Hearts seemed to have similar abilities to top-grade strange water and strange flames, but they had different usages.

Besides special ent.i.ties such as Dark Blue, most lifeforms only absorbed the elemental energy from precious natural resources, such as strange flames and strange water. They could not absorb the specialties.

However, when feys of the same type absorbed the Elemental Hearts, they could take on the specialties stored within the Elemental Hearts.

Although Chop Dark had not received sufficient Creation Master resources, which resulted in its potential being wasted, Lin Yuan was interested in its special attribute.

Its special attribute was that it could grind to a powder. Once it made contact with items, it would destroy the structure of the items.

The attribute suited the Golden Wings that Lin Yuan had not nurtured much yet.

When s.h.i.+nys Snapped Neck Falling Death ability was paired with Chop Darks grinding attribute, it could greatly increase the damage it dealt.

After all, there was no rule that one fey could only absorb one Elemental Heart. As long as one could get their hand on enough Elemental Hearts, the fey could absorb as many as possible.

It could be said that Chop Dark had caught Lin Yuans eye.

However, Chop Dark did not meet Lin Yuans expectations in one another way.

The purity of the elemental energy within it was much too low.

If it could absorb pure wind-elemental energy, it could not only increase the purity of its own element but might also gain the opportunity to transform.

Lin Yuan thought, It looks like I still need to use my own resources to nurture my prey, Su Jian.

Lin Yuan still needed to rush to collect the mouths of spirit springs and search for the lifeform within the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm. He did not have the time to entertain Su Jian.

Hence, Lin Yuan used his contract to send an order to Ding Chengshuo.

In the time they had been together, Ding Chengshuo had performed well, and Lin Yuan had rewarded him accordingly. Amongst the rewards were five wind-type elemental pearls that had outer layers.

After he received Lin Yuans order, confusion crossed Ding Chengshuos face. He did not understand why Lin Yuan wanted to do such a thing.

However, Ding Chengshuo dared not question Lin Yuans order.

Just as Ding Chengshuo took out the brocade pouch containing the five wind-type elemental pearls with outer layers, he heard a voice behind him, Su Jian, what has gotten you so worked up? You summoned your fey right after entering the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm. City Lord Ding and the Bai family have some history. Why dont I act as the mediator, and we all bury the hatchet?

Bai Dongs tone did not seem to be mediating. Rather, he seemed to be trying to protect Ding Chengshuo while exerting pressure on Su Jian.

However, the Su and the Bai families happened to be in cahoots at the moment, and Su Jian could not cross Bai Dong.

Su Jian was well aware of what Bai Dongs intentions were.

Ding Chengshuo had a spot on the Sacred Wood Mystic Realms council, but he had not allied with any large families from Sacred Forest City. He had even turned down the olive branch extended by the Yu family.

Bai Dongs intention was to make Ding Chengshuo owe him a large favor. This way, Ding Chengshuo could not turn him down in the future when he approached him for recruitment.

Through this, the Bai family would gain another seat on the council and have more authority.

Su Jian was never the kind to play the long game.

Even if he knew that he could not oppose Bai Dong now, Su Jian could not swallow his rage. The bubbling fury almost exploded out of his body.

When Bai Dong walked past Ding Chengshuo, he even patted his shoulder in a friendly manner.

He might as well have said, Look how nice I am to you. Hurry up and join the Bai family!

But after Bai Dong and Su Jian regrouped with the rest of the people from the Su family, what Ding Chengshuo did almost caused Bai Dongs eyes to fall out of their sockets.

Ding Chengshuo walked up to them, beaming, and said to Su Jian, Second Master Su! I spoke too quickly and forgot my manners. This is a treasure I used all of my familys fortunes to trade for from Sky Creation! I shall give it to you now. Hopefully, you wont take my inappropriateness to heart!

At that moment, what Su Jian needed the most was a segue.

After all, he had already summoned his fey.

If he just listened to Bai Dong and let off Ding Chengshuo, it would seem as though he was afraid of Bai Dong.

Ding Chengshuos action not only provided him with the segue he was looking for but had even turned around and essentially slapped Bai Dong in return for his attempt at being friendly.

Frankly, Su Jian did not care if there was anything good in the brocade pouch that Ding Chengshuo had just handed him. Even if it was empty, there was no way that Su Jian was going to lay a hand on Ding Chengshuo.

Compared to Meng Xiu, who was a pointless bootlicker, there was much more value in recruiting Ding Chengshuo.

Once the Su family entered the imperial court, what they would need most was support from the major factions.

If Ding Chengshuo could continue to be as cooperative as he was now, Su Jian did not mind letting Ding Chengshuo take charge of the entire north region.

However, when Su Jian opened the brocade pouch, his eyes nearly fell out and landed inside the brocade pouch.

Su Jian poured out the five pearls that radiated the light of dreamy clouds onto his hand.

From the pearls, he could sense elemental energy with a purity that he had never experienced before.

He immediately fed the five wind-type elemental pearls with outer layers to Chop Dark as he swung his arm down to kill Meng Xiu as well as the young man behind Meng Xiu.

Su Jian said to Ding Chengshuo while laughing uproariously, From today onward, you are one of my subordinates!

Ding Chengshuo smiled when he heard what Su Jian said, but he was choking on his disgust internally.

Who the h.e.l.l is your subordinate? I am Lin Yuans subordinate!

While he felt disgusted, Ding Chengshuo did not feel relieved or vindicated in the slightest by Meng Xius death. Rather, he felt a twinge of injustice for Meng Xius sake.

Although Meng Xiu was petty to a fault and annoying to boot, he had contributed his fair share to the Su family.

Yet, Su Jian had not hesitated to kill this person who had worked so hard for the Su family.

This allowed Ding Chengshuo to understand just how merciless Su Jian and the Su family were.
