Chapter 2765 Kong Huan's Subordinate Gets Poached!
Feng Qing had not said much, but each word he uttered hit just the right spots.
It was true that the Alluring Foxes cared more about bloodline than the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.
The Chaos Wind Demon Wolves were a branch of the Moon-Worshiping Wolf species.
It was said that the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves' ancestors had abandoned the Moon-Worshiping Wolves' traditional method of evolving their bloodline and stopped worshiping the moon. Instead, they began using wind elements to temper their bodies.
A species like this that chose to change their bloodline during their development was very capable of taking in other species.
The Alluring Foxes' dependent species had a much lower status than the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. The Alluring Foxes were willing to nurture only members of the fox species.
Fan Lou knew that his bloodline did not align with them.
Since both paths led to him becoming a member of a dependent species, it would be better for him to become part of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves rather than the Alluring Foxes' dependent species.
The Chaos Wind Demon Wolves were extremely protective of their own. In the past, they even got into conflicts with other species on behalf of their dependents.
The Chaos Wind Demon Wolves was also one of the few species that had dealings with the Blood species, aka Bloodians.
With the Bloodians' protection, most species did not dare to get on the wrong side of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. One of these species was the Alluring Foxes.
At first, Feng Qing's words only riled up Fan Lou's appetite and caused him to waver in the face of profits. But the latter part of what Feng Qing said caused any willpower Fan Lou had to crumble.Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the latest updates
Kong Huan was an Elder of the Alluring Foxes and could decide which dependent species they took in.
However, there was no reason for Kong Huan to strengthen another dependent species for his sake.
Kong Huan looked down on dependent species and took the same attitude toward him.
Kong Huan had gotten rid of all the Boundary Patrol Envoys under her command for various reasons. If she was willing to abandon them, he knew she would do the same to him.
Fan Lou suddenly felt a strong sense of peril.
Even if he continued to do her bidding, he could not guarantee she would treat him well after they returned from the Class 2 world. Would she really do as she promised and give him all those profits?
A mysterious smile appeared on Feng Qing's face when he saw Fan Lou's expression.
There was still some time before they set off. If he buried the seed of doubt within Fan Lou, the latter would eventually come back to look for him even if he did not agree to his terms today!
How could he have any sense of security working under Kong Huan?
Feng Qing shot a look at Feng Xuan, and the latter shoved the three Light Wolf Fruits into Fan Lou's hands.
"Why aren't you accepting Lord Feng Qing's generosity? The Boundary Patrol Envoy of the 346th Boundary Patrol Team traded for ten drops of the Wild Billowing Spirit Water from the mermaids for Kong Huan.
"He should have been promoted from the position of Boundary Patrol Envoy long ago. How did he end up killed on an investigation that was not dangerous in the slightest?
"If Lord Feng Qing is willing to protect you, Kong Huan won't be able to touch you even if she finds out that you've betrayed her! You have never stopped providing Kong Huan with offerings, and she doesn't have anything that she can use against you.
"Kong Huan won't start a war between the Alluring Foxes and Light Wind Wolves over this grudge. After all, this might bring down the wrath of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves on the Alluring Foxes as well!"
Now that all the pros and cons were laid out in front of Fan Lou, he would have no reason not to join Feng Qing's camp as long as they gave him a sense of assurance.
Feng Qing had put some effort into his plan to recruit Fan Lou.
If Fan Lou truly joined him and provided him with benefits from the Class 2 world, Feng Qing would not mind helping Fan Lou and turning him into another obedient and useful subordinate.
After Fan Lou heard what Feng Xuan said, he looked up at Feng Qing as though he was resolving to make a serious decision before bowing deeply.
"Lord Feng Qing, I am willing to become a member of the Light Wind Wolves! When we get to the Class 2 world, I will do my best to help you to search for resources. I will also look after Feng Xuan. I hope you will truly be able to protect me!"
Feng Qing scoffed. "Are you doubting my sincerity? Protecting you is a small matter to me! If you are willing, you can eat the three Light Wolf Fruits and change your bloodline before you leave. Then, you can announce to the outside world that you have become a member of the Light Wind Wolves. I will tell the leader of the Light Wind Wolves to respond accordingly."
Feng Qing's words set Fan Lou at ease.
Previously, Kong Huan never allowed Fan Lou to let their relationship become known. She did not want him to affect her reputation in case an accident happened.
Despite being a superior, he was showing his emotions in front of his subordinates. This was enough to show the extent of Feng Qing's shock and excitement.
Feng Qing let out two peals of laughter.
"In the past, Feng Xuan was the only one by my side. There are many tasks that are too much for him alone. If you perform well this time, you can join him by my side from now on!"
Feng Xuan could not hide the hostility in his gaze as he looked at Fan Lou. He never expected the Fan Lou he brought there to one day share his authority!
Feng Xuan believed that all the work he had done under Feng Qing had been impeccable. There were no tasks that had been too much for him.
Feng Qing was the type to follow his heart and act as he pleased. If he said that he was going to support Fan Lou, it was very possible he would keep Fan Lou by his side in the future!
Fan Lou had to be relatively capable in order to become captain of the Sixth Boundary Patrol Team. It was only his power that was still lacking.
Feng Qing patted Fan Lou's shoulder, and his gaze softened.
In all the time that Feng Xuan had spent by Feng Qing's side, he did not know that Feng Qing cared a lot about luck and fortune.
This was the first time that he was meeting Fan Lou, but the latter was already bringing him such enormous fortune. Feng Qing believed that keeping Fan Lou by his side would bring him luck!
Otherwise, Fan Lou would not deserve such support from Feng Qing even if he gained the Chaos Wind Demon Wolf essence blood and bloodline!
There were many members of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolf species who racked their brains for a plan that would allow them to remain by Feng Qing's side.
As a member of the Honor Absent Parliament, there was no way that Feng Qing could personally head to the Class 2 world. The same went for Kong Huan!
A Class 2 world's world wills had a limit to what they could handle. If overwhelmingly strong experts arrived in a Class 2 world, there was a high chance that said world would collapse.
They could only harvest resources from low-class worlds in secret.
If they wrecked a Class 2 world and the other three universes found out about it, they would work together to exert pressure on the East Universe. Faerie Institution would also look into the matter.
Feng Qing did not want to be dragged into trouble.
Among species of equal power, the Bloodians possessed extremely high dominance.
The Chaos Wind Demon Wolves were on good terms with the Bloodians, and Feng Qing intended to borrow a few World Emperor/Intermediate Divine Kingdom experts from them. This would deepen their connection to the Bloodians.
The Chaos Wind Demon Wolves were in urgent need for resources. The Bloodians' energy mainly came from absorbing vitality and death energy. Hence, they had a large amount of resources they could trade with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.
Even if the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves obtained faeries, they would have to share them with the Bloodians.
Feng Qing would feel more secure if the Bloodians were involved!
Kong Huan was definitely aware of the information that Fan Lou had just revealed. She also had to have already made her preparations. Hence, he needed to guard himself against her.
"Fan Lou, I have already been sufficiently generous with you. Now, I want you to announce that you've joined the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. You will remain in my palace for the next few days. You don't have to interact with any outsiders. I will personally settle things with Kong Huan on your behalf. What do you think of this?"
If he was capable of using his authority and offering profits to seduce Fan Lou into joining him, the other members of the Honor Absent Parliament could do the same. Feng Qing had absolutely no doubts about this.
Feng Qing would only feel at ease if Fan Lou remained here until he had to depart.
Fan Lou nodded enthusiastically. "Lord Feng Qing, I will do everything as you say! I will make a record of all the resources found in the Class 2 world and hand it over to you."
Feng Qing's suggestion suited Fan Lou perfectly.
If he joined the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves, his peers would be green with envy.
Moreover, Feng Qing would help him to settle things with Kong Huan. This settled all of his worries.
Feng Qing immediately left for Kong Huan's residence.
Feng Qing believed that Kong Huan also did not want news of an intermediate faerie appearing in the Class 2 world when it was still only a Class 1 world to become known. If she did not want this information to be exposed, their negotiation would go smoothly!
The Alluring Foxes were not as powerful as the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.
Hence, despite it being rather unsavory that he had poached Fan Lou, Kong Huan would have no choice but to swallow this injustice!
