Chapter 2949: Battle in the Blue Shark Sea! Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Keira was extremely meticulous. It was good that Lin Yuan wanted her to expand the demon insects but Keira did not want her expansion to affect the faith country. If the demon insects wanted to reproduce, they needed space. Keira had been asleep for such a long time and did not know that Lin Yuan had already controlled the territory of the Spinning Wings White Falcons. Lin Yuan said to Keira with a smile, “Since I’ve given the order for you to expand the demon insect army, I’m naturally prepared for this. Just focus on expanding the demon insects. From now on, the entire North of the Lonely River will be the territory of the demon insects.” Keira was relieved. Since Lin Yuan had said so, Keira could peacefully expand the demon insects. She had already said what she needed to say to Lin Yuan. If anything happened during the expansion of the demon insects in the future, Lin Yuan would not be able to blame her. “Master, please arrange a space in the Spirit Lock spatial zone for me to use. If the space is too small, there won’t be any problems with the breeding of the demon insects. However, it’s hard to guarantee that the others in the Spirit Lock spatial zone won’t be affected by me!” Lin Yuan sent Keira into the Spirit Lock spatial zone where she could now reproduce without restraint. Lin Yuan would get Genius to arrange a large enough area for Keira to produce a large number of demon insects with Class 1 Genetic Locks. Although the resources in the North of the Lonely River were relatively poor, this was only a lack of resources. There were quite several species residing in North of the Lonely River. Through the genes of these species, Keira produced more and more types of demon insects. Lin Yuan had already explained to Keira the purpose of expanding the demon insect army. Keira was sensible. In the end, she would definitely produce suitable female insects to develop the demon insect army according to Lin Yuan’s requirements. Keira was very good at observing Lin Yuan’s intentions and would follow his instructions. She was especially serious about the details. This was also one of the reasons why Lin Yuan placed Keira in an important position. It was not that Lin Yuan did not have the chance to encounter demon insects on this trip. There had been a female demon insect in the exhibition hall. Lin Yuan did not choose to buy this female demon insect because the Fortune Treasure Palace’s asking price had exceeded his expectations. Secondly, it was because female demon insects were mortal enemies. A female insect with ultimate reproductive rights would not submit to other female insects or cooperate with them. Since Lin Yuan already had Keira, there was no need for him to consider taking in a new broodmother. If Keira had not done her best, Lin Yuan would most likely have bought the female insect that was still in its embryonic form. Since Keira could do things well, Lin Yuan did not want her to feel threatened and think that she could be replaced at any time. After making arrangements for Keira, Lin Yuan heaved a sigh of relief. Lin Yuan was prepared to rest for some time and wait for the competition. After the competition ended, he would improve the strength of the ordinary members of Sky City. Before Lin Yuan could stop for two days, he received a message from Qin Yu. [Qin Yu]: Master, you’ve arranged two things for me. One is to find an opportunity to promote Fan Lou. The other is to pay attention to the Bloodians’ war against the mermaids. Judging from the current situation, the Bloodians in the Scarlet Territory are about to battle the mermaids in the Blue Shark Sea. [Qin Yu]: The Elisa clan will join this operation. At that time, the powerful species will be qualified to divide and take possession of the captives. If you’re interested in these sea species, I can help you capture another group of captives. At that time, you can deal with these captives! Qin Yu’s words were very generous. Before meeting Lin Yuan, she would definitely care about the ownership of these mermaids. However, after being taken in by Lin Yuan and being provided with a large amount of pure spirit qi, the mermaids were no longer as appealing. It was quite beneficial for the dependent species to suck the blood of the mermaids, as apart from being rich in spirit qi, mermaid blood was also rich in elemental energy. However, the benefits these mermaid captives brought to the Bloodians could not be compared to those spirit qi crystals! During this period, Qin Yu was in an abnormally good mood. The two Bloodian kings under her, Lhalu and Fan Qia, had completely extended their lifespans. The current Elisa clan was in the most prosperous state it had been in the past hundreds of thousands of years. Qin Yu’s status in the Scarlet Territory rose steadily. She already had enough authority to influence the important decisions of the Bloodians in the Scarlet Territory. Not only that, Qin Yu knew very well that the Elisa clan had an unimaginable backer. If anything happened to the Elisa clan in the future, they could obviously seek Lin Yuan’s help. This allowed Qin Yu to not be afraid of anything. Qin Yu had already met Fan Lou a few days ago. Although Lin Yuan had specially instructed Qin Yu to promote Fan Lou, Fan Lou was too weak so Qin Yu did not take him seriously. Qin Yu wanted to find an opportunity to communicate with Lin Yuan but she was afraid that Fan Lou was not important enough. If she communicated with Lin Yuan through Fan Lou, it would seem like she was trying to find something to say. It would not be good if it affected the image that Lin Yuan had of her! Now that the Bloodians were finally going to attack the mermaids, this matter was clearly worth looking for Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan thought, The Bloodians are indeed fast when it comes to hunting. They’re actually going to attack the mermaids so soon! The mermaid race was not a small species in the Sky Beyond the Clouds. Like the Bloodians, they were also on the Species Ranking. Although the mermaids were generally weaker than the Bloodians and would be at a disadvantage in battle, the mermaids had a large number of allies in the sea and could increase the water elements’ activity in the sea. As such, many powerful sea species were willing to lend a helping hand to the mermaids during battle. This battle between the Bloodians and the mermaids would definitely be chaotic and Lin Yuan was not suited to participate. Lin Yuan had already realized this. Qin Yu could help him obtain mermaids and directly solve Lin Yuan’s need for mermaids. Through these mermaids, Dark Blue could quickly obtain faith and increase its strength. [Lin Yuan]: Qin Yu, these mermaids are indeed very useful to me. Help me get as many mermaids as possible! I know that these mermen are equally useful to the Elisa clan. I will use resources to compensate the Elisa clan in the future! Qin Yu had never been worried about obtaining resources from Lin Yuan. Before Lin Yuan left, he had given her a large amount of resources. These resources were enough for the Elisa clan to use for a long time. In Qin Yu’s eyes, the spirit qi crystals that Lin Yuan had provided to the Elisa clan and the favors that had helped her increase her strength were already more precious than these mermaids! Lin Yuan would even compensate the Elisa clan for these mermaids in the future. This was real charity! He was so generous that Qin Yu felt that the Elisa clan was soaking in a honey pot. Naturally, Qin Yu would not stand on ceremony with Lin Yuan. Qin Yu secretly made up her mind to let the Bloodian warriors of the Elisa clan capture more mermaids. To the Elisa clan, these mermaids were basically equivalent to spirit qi crystals. Qin Yu mentioned Fan Lou to Lin Yuan. Qin Yu’s idea was that if Lin Yuan was interested in Fan Lou and was willing to talk about him, they could have a good chat. If Lin Yuan was not interested in Fan Lou and showed a lack of interest, she would immediately end the conversation. [Qin Yu]: Master, Fan Lou who you mentioned previously followed the Andra clan to the Elisa clan’s territory to congratulate me. The banquet will last for nearly two months. After the banquet ends, the various Bloodian clans will directly attack the Blue Shark Sea [Qin Yu]: I cannot find any reason to promote Fan Lou now. Do you think I should find a reason to promote Fan Lou and turn him into a pureblood Bloodian? The Andra clan should be modifying Fan Lou’s bloodline. Fan Lou clearly has a portion of the Bloodian bloodline now but the level of the Bloodian bloodline in his body is not high. If he evolves into a Bloodian now, it will take a lot of effort and time for Fan Lou’s bloodline to improve in the future. Lin Yuan’s willingness to interfere with Fan Lou’s bloodline showed how important Fan Lou was to him. Lin Yuan pondered for a moment before replying. [Lin Yuan]: In that case, find a chance to promote Fan Lou. The Lonely River’s four major species that are related to Fan Lou are all my people. You don’t have to be wary of them. I heard that the poison secreted by the Dark Pufferfish has a huge impact on the mermaid race. You can use this poison to reduce the number of casualties suffered by the Elisa clan! Lin Yuan’s answer told Qin Yu that he valued Fan Lou very much. The four major species of the Lonely River were all under Lin Yuan’s command. He had managed to unite them to work alongside Fan Lou. Given this situation, Qin Yu realized she needed to adjust her approach toward Fan Lou. While she might be stronger than Fan Lou, it seemed that Fan Lou had a stronger connection to Lin Yuan than she did. [Qin Yu]: Because they’re about to attack the mermaids, the Dark Pufferfish have become the common target of all the major Bloodian clans. It’s great that the Dark Pufferfish are under your command! With the help of their venom, the Elisa clan will definitely be able to capture more mermaids for you! [Qin Yu]: I will find an opportunity to promote Fan Lou as soon as possible. Then, I will directly transform Fan Lou using a king’s essence blood to help Fan Lou complete the Bloodian transformation as soon as possible. After the transformation, his bloodline will reach a certain level of strength! Initially, Lin Yuan did not think much of Fan Lou. Back then, he had chosen to let Fan Lou join him because he did not have many choices. However, Fan Lou had proven his worth to Lin Yuan time and time again with his actions. This made Lin Yuan completely acknowledge Fan Lou and treat him as a subordinate. Lin Yuan had always felt apologetic toward Fan Lou. Lin Yuan’s previous plan had not only caused Fan Lou a lot of pain, but it had also almost cost him his life. Therefore, Lin Yuan wanted to find an opportunity to compensate Fan Lou. Otherwise, there was no need for him to let Fan Lou follow Qin Yu. Since Lin Yuan planned to let Fan Lou follow Qin Yu from now on, Lin Yuan felt that he needed to explain Fan Lou’s situation to Qin Yu. [Lin Yuan]: Fan Lou isn’t strong, but he’s quite capable. From now on, you can nurture him as you see fit! Lin Yuan did not say much to Qin Yu. Although the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower could only conduct the most basic information transmission, it was enough for Lin Yuan to maintain contact with his subordinates. Lin Yuan had given away many Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flowers in a short period so he felt that he needed to nurture more young Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flowers for emergencies. The Thoughts Letter Paper produced by Wen Yu’s Elemental Paper was enough to communicate with the King Blood Jackals in their territory. But deep into the Spinning Wings White Falcons’ territory and in the Crimson Heaven Falcons’ territory, the Thoughts Letter Paper might not be of any use! Lin Yuan was not blindly optimistic about this situation. It would undoubtedly take a long time for Wen Yu’s Elemental Paper to reach the Holy Spirit level. Before the strength of the Elemental Paper increased, he would have to facilitate communication through the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flowers! As the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flowers could only communicate between ramets and ortets while ramets and ramets could not communicate with each other, Lin Yuan couldn’t manage all of Sky City’s affairs. Wen Yu, the Moon Empress, Liu Jie, Su Yiren, and the other core members of the Astronomical Parliament were the actual decision-makers of Sky City. Lin Yuan felt that he needed to contact Zhan Lu, the manager of Fortune Treasure Palace. He would obtain more ortets of the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower from Zhan Lu and strive to ensure that every core member of Sky City had an ortet. Although this would increase the cultivation pressure and the spatial equipment of the people who went out on tasks would contain many Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower ramets that targeted different ortets, it was undeniable that this could completely resolve the communication problem in Sky City. No matter how big Sky City’s territory expanded, orders could still be transmitted to Sky City immediately. Lin Yuan took out the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower ramet that Zhan Lu had given him and contacted Zhan Lu. [Lin Yuan]: Zhan Lu, I hope to trade more Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower ortets from Fortune Treasure Palace. I want to try to nurture them. I’ve already told you that I lack a fey that can communicate from afar. Fortune Treasure Palace could be said to be the biggest winner in Treasure City. Zhan Lu and Li Feng had gained two large pieces of land from Lin Yuan. Just as Zhan Lu was thinking about how to design the two pieces of land, Lin Yuan sent him a message..
