Chapter 721: Scheming After a ‘Food’ Trump Card Genius answered in its child-like voice, “Yuan, I haven’t figured it out. I tried several Grade 3 spirit fluids that are supposed to nurture plant-type feys, and one of them is even targeted at increasing the growth of plant-type feys’ roots. But once the leaves separate from the Soldier Ration Radish, they become useless. “Yuan, I think that once the branches leave the main plant, it loses its separation ability. I want to test the Soldier Ration Radish’s old roots. Did you notice that the Soldier Ration Radish and the Usnea’s difference lies in that the Usnea’s vines will grow continuously? “If the Usnea isn’t pruned after some time, the roots will turn to wood. At that point, the branches will stop growing and will be tightly bound to the roots. After these wood vines grow, they will separate from the wooden roots. Thus, I think that the Soldier Ration Radish’s wooden old roots might have separation ability.” Lin Yuan’s eyebrow twitched. This Soldier Ration Radish belonged to the Sun family, and Lin Yuan had checked the old roots. There were only three of them! The three old roots formed one root. It could be said that that was the Soldier Ration Radish’s main body. If he cut the old roots, even if he treated it in the future, the Soldier Ration Radish’s source injury of losing its roots would not regrow. Genius went on to say, “Yuan, the Soldier Ration Radish is Bronze/Epic now. If it’s evolved to Legend quality, its separation ability might increase.” When he heard what Genius said, Lin Yuan paused to think before he decided to call Sun Ningxiang. Lin Yuan felt that a man should only gain his wealth through righteous means. After listening to Genius’ speculation, he did start to want the Soldier Ration Radish. Lin Yuan wanted to do all he could to try to cultivate a resource like the Soldier Ration Radish. In this era where spirit qi has awakened, being able to form a contract with a fey was more important than any other basic necessity. This was not supposed to be difficult. Although many spirit qi professionals did not have avian feys, one could still get far by riding on land feys. Basic necessities like having clothes and a home might be important, but humans could still live without them. However, humans could not live without food. Spirit qi professionals continuously increased their power. They bathed in spirit qi to become stronger, and their bodies also needed increasing amounts of food and nourishment. This was why high-grade spirit qi professionals always felt like they were not full. Additionally, spirit qi professionals also needed to form contracts with feys. Feys also needed a large amount of nourishment every day in order to remain healthy and active. If Lin Yuan could cultivate the Soldier Ration Radish, he would secure a huge store of grain. Since the Soldier Ration Radish could also be used to feed herbivorous feys, carnivorous feys, and omnivorous spirit qi professionals, Lin Yuan would be able to obtain a trump card in terms of food production if he was able to attain the Soldier Ration Radish. No matter what happened in the future, Lin Yuan would not need to worry about a lack of food. If it was possible, Lin Yuan even wanted to buy this Soldier Ration Radish from Sun Ningxiang. Sun Ningxiang quickly picked up the call and said in a friendly tone, “Haha, I was about to come to you. I didn’t expect you to call me. I forgot to tell you yesterday that you don’t need to rush to evolve the feys. Besides the 80 mutated plant-type feys that I sent for you to evolve using pure spirit qi, I have another 100 feys that need to evolve their qualities. I’ll send you 100 Law Source Crystals too.” Sun Ningxiang’s words surprised Lin Yuan because she revealed conflicting information. Although she said that she was not in a rush, she had sent him another 100 feys even before he had sent her the last batch of 80 feys. On the one hand, Lin Yuan could understand that Sun Ningxiang wanted to curry favor with him by using the 100 Law Source Crystals to earn his trust. But if this was true, Sun Ningxiang’s trust indirectly demonstrated Condense Fairy Orchard’s less than ideal circumstances. It proved that Sun Ningxiang did not have any other choice but to trust him. If it were Lin Yuan, he might only go so far as to trust that the other party would fulfill the deal. But this situation would not happen to someone that he had only met a few times. Even if it did, he would only trust someone like Gao Feng, who he had traded with many times and was a trustworthy friend. Moreover, even if Lin Yuan paid Gao Feng out of trust before their deal was settled, he would not pay for the second deal before the second trade was completed. Lin Yuan had instructed Wen Yu to investigate Condense Fairy Orchard’s problems, and he would have his answer tomorrow. Initially, Lin Yuan only wanted to understand the faction that he was working with so that he could be prepared. However, Sun Ningxiang’s actions made Lin Yuan interested in the Sun family’s problems. Since Sun Ningxiang had expressed her trust in him again, Lin Yuan needed to provide a response. “I’m not rushing, but I’ve finished evolving the 80 feys. I will send them to you through Ostrich Logistics later. You’ll receive them in three hours.” Once Lin Yuan finished speaking, he heard Sun Ningxiang gasp in surprise. Sun Ningxiang was absolutely stunned! It had only been about six days since she sent the 80 feys to Lin Yuan. Even if all of Sky City’s Creation Masters worked on this task, a pinnacle Class 4 Creation Master would only be able to evolve two per day. This meant that this task could only have been completed by about ten pinnacle Class 4 Creation Masters. Sun Ningxiang did not believe that Sky City had about ten pinnacle Class 4 Creation Masters. There were only a few tens of pinnacle Class 4 Creation Masters in the Radiance Federation, including those hidden away in major factions. Even Connected Beast Park only had 5 pinnacle Class 4 Creation Masters. Connected Beast Park was a faction that banked on their Creation Master resources. In Sun Ningxiang’s opinion, it was impossible for Sky City to have twice the number of pinnacle Class 4 Creation Masters than the Zheng family.
