Chapter 4297: The new king of spirit beasts?

Translator: 549690339

“Oh, I’m fine. Do you know where the new king of spirit beasts was found? Also, is elder Vermilion Bird the one who’s dominating the entire spirit beast clan? have the other elders not come forward to object?” Lin Yi asked for the ghost.

“The current situation in the spirit beast clan is indeed that elder Vermillion bird’s family is the only one in power. The other elders have basically not spoken much. Almost all the power is in elder Vermillion bird’s hands. Within the spirit beast clan, at least on the surface, there are no voices of opposition.” The giant spider nodded.

“That’s right. After all, he’s the Regent elder. Elder Vermilion bird’s current status has already surpassed the other elders by a large margin.” The Great Fire Lion also nodded in agreement.”As for where it found its King, we don’t know. We’re new here and have only joined the spirit beast clan for a short time. We don’t have any qualifications or background. We’re only the lowest level guards now, not even a one star executor. How would we know such a core secret …”

“I’m sure only the King and elder Vermilion Bird know where the king came from. Even the elders don’t know the truth, let alone us underlings.” The giant spider added.

“Oh …” Lin Yi nodded and didn’t say anything else. He was waiting for the ghost’s reaction.

“Alright, I have no more questions. Kid, you don’t have to worry about me. I need some time to calm down.” The ghostly thing seemed to have regained its calm, sighing in Lin Yi’s mind for a long time before it stopped moving.

“Alright,” he said. Lin Yi replied quietly, but he was a little worried. Even when he was in the common world and met the ghost for the first time, it was at its lowest and most miserable state. It didn’t feel this sad and depressed.

The cruel reality that the Vermilion Bird had seized power was probably hard for the ghost to accept, especially since it was far from recovering. Even if it knew the truth, there was nothing it could do.

“That’s right, the star Ink milk is in the ruins city. Why do you have to wait for the human cultivators to come and get it? isn’t it the same if you collect it yourself? if someone finds the star Ink milk and consumes it instead of taking it out like we did, wouldn’t you have suffered a big loss?” Lin Yi asked.

“Oh, there’s nothing we can do about it. We can’t collect Star Ink milk on our own. We can only place our hopes on the human cultivators who have come in to search for treasure. As for whether they will directly consume it, the possibility is not very high. Even if they do consume it directly, the loss of this Star Ink milk is not a big deal to us.” The Great Fire Lion laughed and shook his head.

“Why is that? The star Ink milk is in that pond, so it shouldn’t be difficult to collect it, right?” Lin Yi couldn’t help but look at Huang xiaotao in surprise. Even a three-year-old child could do this kind of thing, why couldn’t they collect it?

“Benefactor, didn’t you notice that the place where the star Ink milk is located is actually an altar?” The spider asked instead of answering.

“I know. There’s a statue of a spirit beast there, but does it matter?” Lin Yi didn’t know what was going on, so he exchanged glances with Huang xiaotao.

“That statue is said to be the appearance of the former king of the spirit beasts. The entire altar was personally set up by it in the past. It also left a sentence saying that the star Ink milk is a treasure given to us spirit beasts by the heavens, but we are not allowed to squander it at will. Therefore, we can’t go up there to collect the star Ink milk.” The giant spider shook its head.

It really looked like the king of spirit beasts! The spider’s words confirmed Lin Yi’s guess. A statue alone was enough to make people subconsciously submit-the king of spirit beasts was indeed a Supreme existence that could make all beasts submit to it.

“But the previous King of spirit beasts has been missing for so long. Times have changed. Do its words at that time still hold so much weight on you now?” Lin Yi asked curiously.

Since the spirit beast clan completely adhered to the principle of respecting the strong, the king of the spirit beasts was no longer around, and now there was a new king. As the saying goes,”every Emperor changes his courtiers.” They should not be so loyal to the orders of the previous King of the spirit beasts …

“The words themselves don’t seem to have much binding power. The key is that there is a natural Thunder array on the altar. It’s fine for you human cultivators to walk up, but if we spirit beasts go up, we’ll be struck by lightning …” The big spider shook its head with a bitter smile.

“There’s such a thing? No wonder. ” Lin Yi and Huang xiaotao finally understood. They didn’t expect that collecting Star Ink milk, which was an easy task for humans, would be so difficult for the spirit beasts.

“Therefore, in order to collect the star Ink milk, we have been secretly spreading the news and even specially asked the other members of the spirit beast clan to find an opportunity to give out some seemingly confidential map information. This was to attract human cultivators to come and collect the star Ink milk. Then, the two of us would intercept them at the entrance of the teleportation array, hehe …” The Great Fire Lion laughed proudly.

“Oh my God, this business of yours is doing really well …” Lin Yi and Huang xiaotao were speechless.

Now that he thought about it, Chang Daoping had always boasted that he was very familiar with the deacons of the spirit beast clan, which was why he had obtained the core secret map of the ruins. It turned out that it was all these two guys ‘idea. They were just playing with him. To think that he was so proud of himself. If he knew the cruel truth of this matter, he would probably cry.

Lin Yi finally understood why the city wasn’t as rotten as he’d thought, and why there wasn’t so much dust on the streets. It turned out that the whole oduo cultivation city was a set from the beginning.

Once a super bait like the star Ink milk was released, it was estimated that no human cultivator would not fall for it. They had made a hard trip, but in the end, not only did they become coolies for others, but they also had to pay with their entire fortune. They really could not cry even if they wanted to.

“Hehe, this is a ready-made business with no capital. It’s a waste not to do it. We came for this. Otherwise, who would guard this damn place?” The Great Fire Lion and the great Spider looked at each other and smiled.

If it weren’t for the extra income, the two of them wouldn’t be willing to be the guards of this remains. Just relying on the mission rewards given by the spirit beast clan, they could forget about making any progress in their lives.

After all, they were different from when they were in the secular world. Now, they were all in the advanced stage of the nascent soul realm. The resources they had were simply not enough for their cultivation. A man can not be rich without a windfall, and a horse can not be fat without night grass. If they did not take advantage of the side door, where would they get the benefits?

In fact, if it was just to collect the star Ink milk, there was a more convenient and simple way. He could simply capture a human and let him collect the star Ink milk on the altar. This way, it would be easy. (To be continued.) ”
