2556 The Pitiful Sky-Plundering Beast! “Regardless of how strong such alien insects are, they will only cause trouble. I have been trying my best to curb the growth of such alien insects as they will threaten my control over the entire alien insect species. ‘”The Sky-Plundering Beast doesn’t have a shred of combat power. It won’t even be able to defeat a newly born alien insect. My control over the alien insects will be the weakest while I’m in a state of revival. I don’t have the courage to test the strength of the alien insects’ loyalty to me, nor can I afford the loss of the Sky-Plundering Beast.” Lin Yuan had thought that the Sky-Plundering Beast would be extremely powerful. However, if it could not even defeat a newly born alien insect, there was a high chance that it was not a fey to begin with, just like Genius and Chimey. It was truly an amazing lifeform since it was not a fey but still possessed a limitless lifespan! “Let’s go and take a look at the Sky-Plundering Beast. We’ll be able to fulfill your promise to it as well.” Keira was silent momentarily before saying, “Lord, allow me to retrieve the Sky-Plundering Beast once you’ve broken the stone. It has been living in the stone all this time. Although I left it a lot of additional room, the space must be filled up with its excrement from the past millions of years by now. The Sky-Plundering Beast won’t be in a pleasant state.” Keira was afraid that Lin Yuan would not be able to stand how messy and dirty the Sky-Plundering Beast was and that this would mar his impression of the Sky-Plundering Beast. She feared that he would only see the Sky-Plundering Beast as a mobile blood bank from now on. When Lin Yuan heard this, he immediately felt pity for the faithful Sky-Plundering Beast. Chimey and Genius had already been very pitiful. But according to what Keira said, Genius and Chimey had been much more blessed than the Sky-Plundering Beast. After all, they might have been abandoned by humans and treated worse than the other Sound Birds and Hundred Questions Beasts, but they still have food to fill their stomachs and did not have to suffer for long before their lives took a drastic turn for the better. Meanwhile, the Sky-Plundering Beast had been waiting for millions of years. One could only imagine how lonely it was. “It’s fine. This way, I’ll be able to help the Sky-Plundering Beast immediately with any problems it might have. It seems like water is very scarce in the alien insect world. I have sufficient water to clean all the dirt and grime off of the Sky-Plundering Beast. Since you’re willing to help me to develop the alien insects, why don’t you remain here? I’ll take you away with me once I’m ready to leave for another territory.” Lin Yuan had called Sky Beyond the Clouds another territory. This made Keira suspicious. What was the main territory if Sky Beyond the Clouds was another territory? Keira could not figure out the meaning behind Lin Yuan’s words. As such, Keira decided not to think too much about it. After all, now that she was under such a generous and loving master, she only had good days to come! Now that Keira had given Lin Yuan her soul fire and had become loyal to him, there should be no need for Lin Yuan to worry about Mexa and Carly still being under Keira’s control. However, Eternal Source had been slightly too heavy-handed when he carried out Lin Yuan’s order to knock Mexa and Carly unconscious. Thus, it would be some time before they woke up. This caused Eternal Source to reach up and cover his head in embarrassment. Keira glanced at Mexa before saying, “Lord, you have good taste. Mexa might not be the strongest of the lot of this current generation of alien insects, but she is definitely the most intelligent of them. I will make sure to nurture her as well from now on. The others are only worthy of being weapons. It’s unlikely they will be able to handle any large undertakings.” Lin Yuan could tell from Keira’s words just how little the alien insects mattered to her. In the past, Lin Yuan would have disliked a lifeform that looked down on another species. But as Lin Yuan continued to gain more experience as a leader and an elite, he learned that only with an attitude like Keira’s could the alien insects truly be turned into weapons. “From now on, you will have to invest your energy into the demon insects. You will need to nurture someone suitable to eventually take over the management of the alien insects. Mexa is a good choice!” While Lin Yuan spoke, he took half of the Soldier Ration Radish’s vines out of a Diamond fey storage box and placed them in Keira’s hands. “Hold on to these vines that contain vitality. You can use them to nurture the alien insects and increase their numbers. Let me know immediately once you’ve used them all up. I will prepare more of them for you.” Ever since Lin Yuan obtained the first Soldier Ration Radish from Condense Fairy Orchard, he had been nurturing it continuously. With Genius, a pinnacle Class 4 Creation Master who possessed Class 5 Creation Master knowledge, as well as the combined efforts of the entire army of Hundred Questions Beasts, there were already almost 300 of the Soldier Ration Radishes. All 300 Soldier Ration Radishes’ branches were now as thick as an adult’s arm. Thus, Lin Yuan could obtain large amounts of Soldier Ration Radish’s leaves every day. His current store of Soldier Ration Radish was insufficient to satisfy all the alien insects. There were just too many of them. However, he would be able to prevent them from cannibalizing each other and thereby lowering their population. Sky Beyond the Clouds possessed many plants that contained vitality. Although Keira had never seen them, she never felt such plants were exceptionally rare. The Soldier Ration Radish’s leaves seemed much more ordinary than the crystals containing pure spirit qi. “Lord, don’t worry. I definitely won’t let down your expectations of the alien insects. I will properly develop them!” While Lin Yuan and Keira were speaking, they arrived at the back of the mountain where the inheritance ground was located. Once they had arrived, Lin Yuan did not hear the cries that Mexa and Carly had mentioned. Lin Yuan nodded at Eternal Source, signaling him to break the rock as gently as possible so as not to injure the Sky-Plundering Beast that was directly underneath. It was highly likely that the Sky-Plundering Beast was not even a fey, and it might lose its life if the hard rocks hit it. Surface sounds were much clearer to those situated underground than underground sounds were to those situated on the surface. This meant that, after waiting for millions of years, the Sky-Plundering Beast would likely move expectantly directly below the planks of rock after hearing noise from above. It would be waiting for Keira to take it away from this place so that it could finally run free under sunlight and breathe in the fresh air of freedom. Eternal Source experimentally knocked on the hard rock and confirmed that he could break it. Next, he reached his hand into the rock cavity and pulled upward forcefully.
