Chapter 3115: 3115 Chapter 3115: A Very Interesting Fellow Although Lin Moyu considered himself thick-skinned, he asked with some probing, prepared to be refused. After all, the questions he asked already touched on some secrets, so it would be normal if Su Fengze didn’t tell him. But unexpectedly, Su Fengze said a lot, telling Lin Moyu many things about the seal. Lin Moyu then raised some new questions, which Su Fengze also answered. In their exchange, Lin Moyu understood why there was no information about the seal in the materials Jin Mie gave him. Because in 100,000 years, no one in the Golden Lion clan had ever obtained a seal. 100,000 years wasn’t short, and this information had almost been forgotten by them, so naturally it wouldn’t be in the materials. In the eyes of the Golden Lion clan, matters related to the seal had probably been given up long ago. Not just the Golden Lion clan, apart from the Celestial Fox clan and Green Wind Wolf clan, the other eight royal clans had basically given up on obtaining seals. Not only had they given up, even the Green Wind Wolf clan didn’t pay much attention to this matter. Their most recent seal acquisition was tens of thousands of years ago. In 100,000 years, they had only obtained three seals, and the highest military rank among them was only ten-man commander. As such, it was better to explore secret realms more, which might yield greater gains. In the end, among the ten royal clans currently, only the Celestial Fox clan was still striving to raise military ranks. In 100,000 years, the Celestial Fox clan had obtained eight seals in total. Three of those people had perished, and five still held seals. These five people basically entered every time the Ancient Battle Secret Realm opened, accumulating military merits and raising their ranks. Currently, their Great Elder had raised his rank to ten thousand-man commander. One more step forward would be general. Generals were divided into nine grades, with ninth grade being the lowest and first grade the highest. Lin Moyu had seen that general in the secret realm, who was a ninth-grade general commanding about twenty thousand Divine Rune Army soldiers. Lin Moyu asked, "What benefits are there to becoming a first-grade general?" Su Fengze shook his head slightly, "Don’t know, no one has achieved it." "The highest rank in our clan only reached sixth-grade general, but he perished in a secret realm expedition." His words carried a hint of sighing. The Ancient Battle Secret Realm was originally unsafe. After becoming a member of the Divine Rune Army and executing various tasks, the danger increased greatly. Su Fengze continued, "But there must be benefits. According to clan records, that ancestor’s cultivation speed was extremely fast, a hundred times that of ordinary clan members." "After one entry into the Ancient Battle Secret Realm, he advanced from sixth-level to seventh-level Dao Venerable ancestor." "A thousand years later, he entered the Ancient Battle Secret Realm again and advanced from seventh-level to eighth-level." "At that time, the clan tested him. His bloodline power was incredibly strong, purely in terms of bloodline power, he had surpassed the clan leader and elders of that time." "According to him, the reason he could advance so quickly and his bloodline power was so strong was because of rewards obtained from executing tasks in the secret realm." "He didn’t say what the specific rewards were, seeming to be under some restriction preventing him from speaking. But that ancestor once said the rewards seemed related to the Origin Ancestral Land." "What a pity, that ancestor’s talent and ability were truly beyond compare. It’s really too bad!" Su Fengze used "pity" several times, expressing his emotions. Lin Moyu inwardly thought, "Not only can it increase cultivation speed, but also enhance bloodline. It seems somewhat similar to the Thunder Light Purple Striped Tiger’s place." "The higher the military rank, the greater the rewards obtained, and the task difficulty would increase accordingly." "Related to the Origin Ancestral Land, what connection could the Divine Rune Army have with the Origin Ancestral Land?" At the same time, Lin Moyu also felt it was a bit strange. Su Fengze seemed to have said too much. Some things Lin Moyu hadn’t even asked about, but Su Fengze had already given answers. And he supplemented the answers with detailed explanations, giving Lin Moyu a feeling of being overly enthusiastic. Su Fengze spoke again, "Does Friend Lin wonder why Fengze would say so much?" Without waiting for Lin Moyu to speak, he continued answering his own question, "Actually, these things Su has said aren’t secrets. As long as Friend Lin is interested, you could find out by asking around after returning." "But Su saying so much actually has selfish motives. Friend Lin probably also knows that Su is from a collateral branch. In our beast races, collateral descendants aren’t well-regarded." "Although Su is confident of reaching ninth-level Dao Venerable one day, changing from collateral to direct lineage, that still takes time and has many restrictions, and also requires some external factors." Lin Moyu smiled, "So, you want to win me over?" Su Fengze neither admitted nor denied, continuing, "Friend Lin’s luck is so strong, it’s rarely seen in Su’s life. Our clan likes to befriend people with strong fortune, which Friend Lin naturally knows." "Besides this, Friend Lin is an honored guest of the Golden Lion clan, with even the first number as identifier. It’s said Friend Lin is also acquainted with the Beast Emperor." "With all these factors combined, Su naturally wants to become good friends with Friend Lin." He spoke very directly, laying everything out in the open, not giving people a bad impression, but rather a feeling of an upright gentleman. He continued, "But, Su has one principle in dealing with matters, which is to treat people with sincerity. Su has always believed that only by treating others sincerely can one gain true friendship." "Those fair-weather friends, to be honest, Su looks down on and doesn’t need." "Of course, Friend Lin can’t possibly become friends just because of Su’s words." "No rush, Su has just said everything I wanted to say. If we can become friends in the future, that’s naturally best. If not, at least we won’t become enemies." Sincerity and pride were displayed simultaneously at this moment. Su Fengze’s words also made Lin Moyu understand why he would say so much to him. Lin Moyu could also feel that Su Fengze’s words weren’t false. Indeed, the word "friend" is sometimes a luxury, not something that can be achieved with just a few words. Lin Moyu said, "Thank you, Friend Su, for being so frank. Perhaps in the future, we will become friends." Su Fengze revealed a slight smile. A wine flask appeared in his hand, "I don’t know if Friend Lin likes wine. The wine in this flask is our clan’s most famous Fox Fruit Brew. Friend Lin can try it." Lin Moyu took the wine flask, and at the same time took out a small bag and tossed it to Su Fengze, "We humans have a saying ’courtesy demands reciprocity’. This is Blue Water Green Leaf tea from the human realm. Although it can’t compare to top-grade dao teas, it still ranks among the best." Su Fengze didn’t stand on ceremony either, accepting Lin Moyu’s reciprocal gift. This could be considered the first step in them becoming friends. Su Fengze said, "Perhaps Friend Lin can’t consider Su a friend yet, but Su already considers Friend Lin a friend. Between friends, there’s no need for unnecessary words. Su won’t compete with Friend Lin for the task point here." Lin Moyu smiled slightly, not being polite either, cupping his fists, "This matter, Lin Moyu will remember." Su Fengze chuckled, "Then Su will take his leave first. If Friend Lin has free time in the future, you can come to the Celestial Fox clan to find Su. Although Su isn’t from the direct lineage, I still have some status in the clan." After saying this, Su Fengze left without looking back. Lin Moyu watched Su Fengze disappear into the black wind, unable to help smiling, "What an interesting fellow."
