Chapter 243 - Greedy Dragon Clan, Ideological Education (3)
“Big Sister!” Qing Jue pouted his pink lips in dissatisfaction.
“Hehe, Qing Jue, bring them along!” Leng Ruoxue said awkwardly as she placed Qing Jue on the ground.
“Xue’er, I’m very cute too. Pinch me!” The little silver mink, who had a surge of jealousy, jumped into Leng Ruoxue’s arms.
Leng Ruoxue looked the little mink up and down and finally said very honestly, “You’re too thin. Pinching you isn’t fun.”
“Wuu wuu… Then I’ll eat until I get fatter!” the little silver mink said ingratiatingly. He was going to go all out.
Leng Ruoxue deliberately paused before saying with disapproval, “Get fatter? Then you will become a ball like Baby!”
“Big Sister, I’m not that fat.” A small black furball rolled to Leng Ruoxue’s feet and complained, his big blue eyes full of grievances.
“Yes, Baby is much fatter than before,” Leng Qingtian said seriously as he picked up the furball from the ground.
“Boohoo… Baby isn’t fat.” Baby wailed aggrievedly as crystal tears rolled down his big blue eyes.
“Not fat, not fat. We were just joking with Baby,” Leng Ruoxue quickly coaxed. A few drops of cold sweat rolled down her forehead. Alas! Why do all my beasts like to cry so much!
“Big Sister is bullying Baby,” Baby complained with tears in his eyes.
“Uh!” Leng Ruoxue was speechless. When did I bully this little thing?
“Haha, Ruoxue, your beasts are all very difficult to deal with!” Lin Liang laughed hysterically. These little things are really too cute. Moreover, that girl is actually being controlled by her beasts. Haha!
“Grandpa Lin, if you continue smiling, your saliva will drip down,” Leng Ruoxue said lightly.
“Uh, really?” Lin Liang was a little puzzled, but he still wiped the corner of his mouth with his hand.
“Haha, Brat Lin, who asked you to make a joke about Little Girl? You’ve been fooled now!” Old Man said gloatingly.
“Hmph!” Lin Liang snorted and ignored Old Man. But he looked at Leng Ruoxue aggrievedly.
“You guys continue chatting. I’m going out first.” Leng Ruoxue ignored Lin Liang’s bitterness and directly escaped.
After leaving the bracelet, Leng Ruoxue also brought Feng Zhan out.
“Master, why did you bring me out?” Feng Zhan asked in puzzlement. Wasn’t I planting sycamore trees with the clan just now?
“I brought you out because it’s better for you to stay outside as the king of the clan,” Leng Ruoxue explained while looking at the somewhat depressed Feng Zhan. In fact, she was afraid that the Dragon clan would suddenly come, so she brought Feng Zhan out. Hehe!
“When we leave, you can stay inside for as long as you want,” Leng Ruoxue added.
“Master, King, the Dragon clan requests an audience.” A guard came to report just as Leng Ruoxue finished speaking.
“Bring the Dragon clan to the main hall first. The Phoenix King and I will be there soon.” Leng Ruoxue ordered the vermilion bird guard. Speak of the devil!
After deliberately waiting for a while, Leng Ruoxue and Feng Zhan walked toward the main hall of the Phoenix clan.
In the main hall of the Phoenix clan…
The second elder was sitting alone in his chair with numerous thoughts in his mind. He kept thinking about how to talk later and how to obtain the greatest benefits for the Dragon clan…
“So, it’s Second Elder who has graced us with your presence.” Feng Zhan entered the hall and reminded Leng Ruoxue of the old man’s identity.
“Your Majesty, this old man greets you.” The second elder stood up and bowed respectfully.
The second elder looked at the beautiful woman beside Feng Zhan and asked uncertainty, “You must be Miss Leng?”
“I am Leng Ruoxue. Hello, Second Elder,” Leng Ruoxue said very politely.
“Ah! Miss Leng, it’s a pleasure to meet you. This old man was rude!” the second elder hurriedly said and bowed again.
“Hehe, Second Elder, there’s no need to be so polite. Please take a seat,” Feng Zhan said with a light smile.
“Phoenix King, I’m here to negotiate with you on behalf of the Dragon clan,” the second elder said straightforwardly after they were seated.
“Has the Dragon clan already discussed it?” Feng Zhan asked knowingly.
“We’ve discussed it. We are willing to make a deal with Miss Leng,” the second elder said with a smile, but he couldn’t help cursing in his heart. Rubbish. What am I doing here if we didn’t discuss it beforehand? Fight with you?
“Second Elder, tell me your conditions!” Leng Ruoxue asked directly without hesitation.
“Well, after the unanimous consent of all the elders of the Dragon clan, we are willing to send fifty clan members to establish contracts with Miss Leng’s subordinates. However, we request the same number of pills that can advance holy beasts, as well as pills and spirit fruits that can heal injuries,” the second elder said carefully.
“You want them all in the same number?” Leng Ruoxue frowned. This Dragon clan is really greedy. They actually want so many things.
“Uh, yes. If Miss Leng didn’t have what we needed, we wouldn’t have agreed. After all, dragons don’t contract with humans,” the second elder explained, but he was a little nervous. He also knew that they wanted a little too much, but it was all negotiable.
“Except for the pills that can advance holy beasts, there are no problems with the rest,” Leng Ruoxue said indifferently. Hmph! The Dragon clan is really good at scheming. Using fifty clan members in exchange for fifty pills that can promote them to divine beasts, coupled with the dragons that would become my subordinates’ spirit beasts, the Dragon clan would be equivalent to having an additional one hundred divine beasts. After all, it was impossible for her to leave her subordinates’ contract beasts alone!
The second elder gritted his teeth and said with a troubled expression, “Thirty pills will do then. We won’t change the rest,”
“Except for the pills for advancement, there are no problems with the rest,” Leng Ruoxue repeated coldly. It wasn’t so easy to take advantage of her.
“Erm… I have to go back and discuss this with His Majesty and the elders.” The second elder had no other choice after seeing that Leng Ruoxue was unwilling to relent.
“Okay, I won’t see you out. Second Elder, please!” Leng Ruoxue said coldly. She left before the second elder even got up.
