Chapter 2915 Is Your Heart Really That Ruthless?

Feng Qing emphasized his tone, "Our two species will continue to cooperate in the future. I believe that the Four Species Overlords of the Lonely River have also obtained sufficient benefits from the trade with our Chaos Wind Demon Wolves!"

Andre knew very well that the Andra clan had already harbored the intention to abandon the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. However, because of Feng Qing's status as a member of Honor Absent Parliament, the Andra clan needed to make some preparations if they wanted to abandon them. The most basic step was to remove Feng Qing's ident.i.ty as an Honor Absent Parliament member before making a move against the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.

While the Andra clan was only handling their own internal affairs, they were cautious not to let Honor Absent Palace misunderstand. If any faction were to take advantage of the situation, it could spell trouble for the Andra clan.

In the East Universe, any species that disrespected the Honor Absent Palace would be punished without exception, even if it was a powerful species on the Species Ranking. While it wouldn't cause serious physical harm, it would lead to a long period of dejection. The species on the Species Ranking that provoked the Honor Absent Palace were living examples.

If not for the fact that he was worried about the Honor Absent Palace, Andre really wanted to teach Feng Qing a lesson and let him know that regardless of how he perceived himself, he was merely a servant of the Andra clan. To put on airs in the Andra clan's territory was equivalent to disregarding the Andra clan. Moreover, the four species of the Lonely River were targets that the Andra clan wanted to befriend. Furthermore, Feng Qing's words were too shameless.

Fan Lou was not the only one sent to the Lonely River by the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. The Forbidden Wolf Team was also sent to the Lonely River by Feng Qing. Why wasn't there anyone in the Forbidden Wolf Team who possessed the ability to save an important member of the Dark Pufferfish?!

Feng Qing insisted on attributing the credit of Fan Lou's contribution to the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves, which not only belittled Fan Lou's contribution to them but it also came across as arrogant. Andre could not bear to listen to these words. Ink Scar was so angry that he laughed at Feng Qing's words, "Cooperation? What cooperation? Don't tell me your Chaos Wind Demon Wolves really think that you're in such high demand that the Dark Pufferfish insist on a.s.sociating with you?!

"The transaction with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves was sought after by Fan Lou. Otherwise, wouldn't it be better for us to use these resources to trade with other Bloodian clans? Why do I have to trade with your Chaos Wind Demon Wolves!?

"I will inform the leader about what happened to Fan Lou. From now on, our Dark Pufferfish and your Chaos Wind Demon Wolves will either have no dealings or become enemies. There will be no third option.

Ink Scar's words left no room for negotiation. Before coming, Ink Scar had repeatedly confirmed with Fan Lou through the Thoughts Letter Paper twice, wanting to determine how he was going to deal with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.

Ink Scar didn't want to misinterpret Fan Lou's intentions and end up flattering too much. It was a small matter to make Fan Lou unhappy, but if it jeopardized Lin Yuan's plan, he would unquestionably meet his demise.

In Feng Qing's opinion, he had already made a huge concession to ease the situation. However, it seemed as though Ink Scar did not understand his words at all. He actually directly broke off relations with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves, which made Feng Qing somewhat lose his judgment. The Dark Pufferfish's actions were against their own interests. How could Fan Lou possibly bring such a significant value to the Dark Pufferfish that they actually severed ties with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves just because of Fan Lou?

Feng Qing subconsciously looked at Andre. Ink Scar had the same reaction.

Ink Scar said to Andre in an unusually serious tone, "Elder Andre, our Dark Pufferfish are now in a cooperative relations.h.i.+p with the Andra clan. In terms of cooperation, we have always been generous. When the Bloodians first established contact with the Dark Pufferfish, we were indeed unwilling to trade resources with you. But after working with the Andra clan, apart from the poison secreted by my clan, we have also shared resources from the Lonely River with you.

"The Chaos Wind Demon Wolves are the dependent species of the Andra clan. I hope that the Andra clan can give the Dark Pufferfish an explanation on this matter! I believe that the request I am making is not something that your Andra clan cannot fulfill! The Dark Pufferfish aren't being unreasonable. You've already seen how the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves treat our benefactor.

"We can't tolerate the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves no matter what. If Elder Andre isn't willing to provide us with an explanation, I believe there is no reason for the Dark Pufferfish and the Andra clan to continue cooperating. Although the Dark Pufferfish come from a remote area like the Lonely River, we still uphold our dignity!"

In the Sky Beyond the Clouds, each species had significant differences in personality and the way they handled things because of the difference in bloodline. Andre could understand why the Dark Pufferfish were so unyielding.

However, even though Andre had already placed Fan Lou in an extremely important position, he had still underestimated Fan Lou's status in the hearts of the Dark Pufferfish. The Dark Pufferfish had actually become Fan Lou's backing in this matter, showing such strong protection for him and helping him regain his position. This was not a bad thing in Andre's heart. If the Andra clan took in Fan Lou in the future, they could use Fan Lou to strengthen their relations.h.i.+p with the Four Species of the Lonely River.

"Feng Qing, bring your Chaos Wind Demon Wolves back to your territory first. You've offended our Andra clan's esteemed guests. It's really not appropriate for you to stay in the Andra clan's territory. Afterward, if the Andra clan makes any decisions, you will be summoned. Take this time to reflect deeply and recognize the issues within your Chaos Wind Demon Wolves when you go back. Do you understand what I just said?"

Andre's serious tone did not give Feng Qing a chance to turn the situation around at all. Feng Qing's words were stuck in his throat. The Andra clan couldn't eliminate the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves at the moment, but they had to convey a stance to the Dark Pufferfish. This was the best way to handle the situation. The Andra clan's actions also did not indicate to Feng Qing that they wanted to abandon the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. They only asked him to bring the people back to reflect.

In order to ease the relations.h.i.+p with the Andra clan, Feng Qing would definitely bring a large amount of resources to apologize to the Andra clan after he returned.

Their leader, Yi Xue, was still in the territory of the Elisa clan. It would take some time for him to return. He should be able to obtain a lot of benefits from the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves before Yi Xue returned. While considering the well-being of the clan, Andre was more inclined to prioritize his own interests. The compet.i.tion between members of the Bloodian clans was extremely harsh. Andre had fought for his current position and power with his own capability.

Upon seeing that Feng Qing did not want to leave, Andre said coldly, "Feng Qing, are you staying here with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves to continue causing trouble for the envoys of the Four Species Overlords of the Lonely River? Let me give you a piece of advice. Don't deceive yourself and the entire Chaos Wind Demon Wolves!"

Andre's words were very ingenious, serving both as a deterrent to Feng Qing, and as a way to enlighten Feng Qing, forcing him to leave immediately.

In front of Feng Qing, Andre could not make a promise to Ink Scar to salvage the relations.h.i.+p between the Andra clan and the Dark Pufferfish. After Feng Qing left, Andre would be able to comfort Ink Scar.

Regardless of how low Feng Qing's EQ was, he knew that Andre was not prepared to let him take Fan Lou away. Feng Qing had already offended the Dark Pufferfish and displeased the Andra clan, so he didn't make a request to take Fan Lou away.

Feng Qing felt a sense of unease in his heart. Judging from the Andra clan's att.i.tude towards the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves, Feng Qing grasped their current situation. In the eyes of the Andra clan, the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves were far inferior to the Four Species Overlords of the Lonely River.

With the interests of the four species tied together, the other three species of the Lonely River would definitely choose to stand with the Dark Pufferfish. The Chaos Wind Demon Wolves weren't as useful and valuable as the Four Species Overlords of the Lonely River. If the Andra clan had to make a choice, Feng Qing was well aware of whom they would abandon.

Ink Scar, the envoy of the Dark Pufferfish, was targeting him not because there was some irreconcilable conflict between the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves and the Dark Pufferfish.

All the key points revolved around Fan Lou. As long as Fan Lou was willing to speak up for the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves, the Dark Pufferfish would still be willing to maintain a close relations.h.i.+p with them.

No matter what, the blood of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves flowed in his body. Hence, Fan Lou should take the development of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves into consideration.

When leading the members of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves away later, Feng Qing would personally find Fan Lou and explain to him. Fan Lou was an intelligent person, and there was no need for him to say too much. As long as Fan Lou knew that Feng Xuan was dead, Fan Lou would know that he would still be the most favored person by his side in the future.

However, after this incident, Feng Qing had already started to be wary of Fan Lou. Previously, he had entrusted Fan Lou with an important position because Fan Lou could bring him good luck. However, many events had unfolded within the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves since then. Although Feng Xuan caused these things, Fan Lou was also involved.

Ink Scar was very satisfied with Andre's att.i.tude. He did not want the Andra clan to do anything to the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. Everything Ink Scar did was to facilitate Fan Lou's plan. Some things were better done with restraint than overdoing it. Exercising restraint would significantly increase the margin for error tolerance, allowing for more room for developments to unfold in the situation. Thus, Ink Scar did not stop Feng Qing from meeting Fan Lou.

Upon seeing that Ink Scar no longer insisted on targeting the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves after he let them leave, Andre heaved a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Ink Scar would go all out and insist that the Andra clan provide the Dark Pufferfish with an explanation immediately. This would definitely put the Andra clan in an extremely disadvantageous position.

When Feng Qing left, Andre would take the time to calm Ink Scar and, in pa.s.sing, inquire about why the Dark Pufferfish were so supportive of Fan Lou.

The moment Feng Qing saw Fan Lou, he finally understood how pathetic he was.

The best spiritual ingredient to expel the invasion of the chaotic wind was called the Wind Expelling Gra.s.s.

The Wind Expelling Gra.s.s could absorb the energy in the chaotic wind, but it also had a certain disadvantage. Using the Wind Expelling Gra.s.s would activate the blood circulation and have the effect of removing the silt and decay from the body.

This caused the fresh blood gus.h.i.+ng out of Fan Lou's wound to mix with rotten flesh and dirty blood, making him look like a decaying, b.l.o.o.d.y man. Although the Wind Expelling Gra.s.s had made Fan Lou look extremely miserable, his injuries should have healed significantly with its help.

Based on Feng Qing's understanding of Fan Lou, Fan Lou should be struggling to get up and bow to him at this moment. Feng Qing was already prepared to comfort Fan Lou and let him recuperate.

Fan Lou's current att.i.tude not only displeased Feng Qing but also instilled a sense of unease in Feng Qing's heart. Based on past behavior, Feng Qing never thought that Fan Lou would be disappointed in him. He had always believed that Fan Lou owed him a debt of grat.i.tude.

If it weren't for his protection, Fan Lou would have fallen into Kong Huan's hands long ago. Kong Huan had always treated her subordinates badly. Before this matter, he had treated Fan Lou much better than Kong Huan had treated Fan Lou.

Feng Qing knew very well that he did not have much time to communicate with Fan Lou. "Fan Lou, this problem has made you suffer a lot. It's not convenient for you to travel a long distance now, so you can stay in the Andra clan's territory for now. I'll pick you up later. I already know everything that Feng Xuan did to you. I've already gotten rid of Feng Xuan for you. I'll make it up to you for everything else!

"The Dark Pufferfish have a lot of misunderstandings about our Chaos Wind Demon Wolves because of you. During your time with the Andra clan, you need to reverse the Dark Pufferfish's opinion of our clan!

"Apart from what I promised you previously, you will be the vice-captain of the Forbidden Wolf Team from now on as long as you do this well. You will be in charge of all the matters of the Forbidden Wolf Team with Feng Nuo!

Feng Qing felt that his current promise to Feng Qing was enough. To put it bluntly, Fan Lou was an outsider who had been bestowed with the blood of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves, transforming him from a regular wolf into the esteemed figure he was today. Fan Lou shouldn't have any complaints, even if he had to sacrifice himself. Moreover, he had already personally coaxed Fan Lou and even rewarded him with such a huge favor.

At this moment, Fan Lou was indeed too lazy to continue acting with Feng Qing.

However, Fan Lou's words were indeed sincere. Saying these words was equivalent to bidding farewell to his ident.i.ty as a member of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.

"Lord Feng Qing, I've always been conscientious in the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. I've always carried out all your orders like an imperial edict and have never made any mistakes. I've always tried my best to do my best. I've done my best to share your burdens for those things that others are unwilling to do.

"Even though you could have saved me, you chose to abandon me just because of Feng Xuan's baseless accusations. Is your heart truly that ruthless?"
