Chapter 1228: Chapter 1229: Entrusting
“Flowerpot Flower, Flowerpot Leaf, and Flowerpot Tree? These three…”
As he looked over the three spirit beasts, Feng Yuan’s brows slightly furrowed. Was He Nanqing treating them as an apology gift? But that didn’t seem right, the other person wasn’t soone to do such a thing, and Feng Yuan also didn’t think they would make such a foolish move, knowing full well he wouldn’t appreciate this gesture.
“The village’s Xiao Han brought them back but couldn’t take care of them, and neither am I suitable to care for them. There’s also nobody else in the village who can take care of them, so…”
He Nanqing spoke with an expression of headache, and as Feng Yuan glanced at the little Yognot next to He Nanqing, he imdiately understood. Yognot’s fire-elent attribute was very strong, and as the Flower Leaf Tree Three Spirit Beasts were wood attribute and not very capable in combat, they were not suitable to be by her side at all, and probably the sa could be said for everyone else in their village.
Although they had received many blessings from divine beasts, in reality, under the influence of Yognot, the fire-attribute spirit beasts in their village were still relatively strong. Consequently, it was no surprise that the beastmasters in the other village specialized in taking care of fire-attribute spirit beasts.
In this situation, raising the Flower Leaf Tree Three Spirit Beasts was indeed not good for them. Although they could produce rare materials, they didn’t have the ability to care for plants. Feng Yuan was not particularly keen on keeping them, all the more so because these three spirit beasts could completely be entrusted to better people.
“The Flower Leaf Tree shouldn’t be sothing that anyone would refuse, right? If it really doesn’t work out, releasing them into the wild wouldn’t be a big problem, would it?”
Looking puzzled at He Nanqing, Feng Yuan asked. It seed quite unusual, and shaking his head with a wry smile, He Nanqing said,
“There’s no helping it. These three spirit beasts were saved by Xiao Han from the claws of a Blazing Fla Dragon, which seed to take its anger out on them from ti to ti. They are very scared of other wild spirit beasts…”
Generally, wild spirit beasts, even if not of the sa species, would feel so kinship towards other wild spirit beasts. But alas, these three spirit beasts had always been bullied by the Blazing Fla Dragon, and the one who saved them was human,
If it wasn’t that Xiao Han had little interest in taking care of them, and given that she mostly had fire-elent spirit beasts following her, she wouldn’t have thought to find soone willing to take care of them.
While there were indeed many who were willing to adopt the Flower Leaf Tree, most of them had ill intentions, solely interested in them for the special spiritual dicine they could produce. Feng Yuan was different. Given his status, even if he needed spiritual dicine, he wouldn’t be interested in the Flower Leaf Tree Three Spirit Beasts.
Agunas flicked its tail, sowhat helpless. If this were the doing of humans, it could vent its anger, but this was an internal matter of their own, the spirit beasts, not to ntion that humans were the ones who ended up rescuing them.
“Blazing Fla Dragon? I recall that type of spirit beast as being very temperantal. Anyway, there’s no spirit beast near its dwelling that it hasn’t fought; it also doesn’t have a very good reputation among spirit beasts.”
As he recollected, Feng Yuan said, helplessly. The Blazing Fla Dragon, a spirit beast that would pick fights with its neighbors for no good reason to vent off steam, really couldn’t easily gain a good reputation.
Moreover, the Blazing Fla Dragon often got angry for no apparent reason. Feng Yuan didn’t expect that these three spirit beasts used to live within the territory of a Blazing Fla Dragon, but it also didn’t seem too strange, since Flowerpot Flower, Flowerpot Leaf, and Flowerpot Tree were spirit beasts without much combat power.
Because of its fiery temper, the Blazing Fla Dragon’s territory was always much larger than those of other ordinary spirit beasts of the sa level. Nobody likes a neighbor who’s a martial lunatic, and the Blazing Fla Dragon didn’t even need all the resources in its vast territory. Therefore, so spirit beasts that were not afraid of getting beaten naturally approached the Blazing Fla Dragon’s territory.
So even lived directly on the Blazing Fla Dragon’s territory. After all, those with insufficient combat power could only rely on the charity of stronger entities to survive more comfortably.
If any one of the Flower Leaf Tree Three Spirit Beasts had an evolutionary state with substantial combat power, they wouldn’t be in such a situation, but unfortunately, none of their evolutionary states were strong in combat, so they naturally had to choose to rely on stronger entities for survival.
“That’s true, and because of this, they are utterly unwilling to return to the wild. Recently, I’ve been troubled about how to arrange for them.”
He Nanqing looked at the three spirit beasts and sighed. The people from her own village were not suitable, and for others, she wasn’t sure if they genuinely had the beast’s best interests at heart. When she heard about what was happening with Feng Yuan, she promptly brought them over. It couldn’t be helped; among the people she knew, perhaps only Feng Yuan was the most suitable.
“It’s not impossible. After all, Agunas should be able to take good care of them.”
Seeing Feng Yuan looking at him, Agunas hesitated for a mont and did not refute aloud. After all, those three Spirit Beasts had beco like this entirely because of being bullied by other Spirit Beasts. However, when those three Spirit Beasts took a look at Agunas, they huddled together, even trying to find a hole to hide in according to their instincts.
They got the na Basin Leaves because of their habits; they liked to find a hole that could accommodate their spherical bodies to hide in, especially when they encountered danger, they often dug holes in the ground and tried to camouflage themselves as flora.
Qi Chen stepped forward and softly comforted the three Spirit Beasts before looking at Feng Yuan and saying,
“Is this…even Agunas is scared of them?”
On normal days, those Spirit Beasts seed very affectionate towards Agunas, and he thought that Agunas would be able to easily handle the situation. But he didn’t expect that such a situation would still occur.
“It’s hard to say, but it’s not particularly strange since Agunas is also a Spirit Beast.”
Feng Yuan furrowed his brows and crouched down to examine the three Spirit Beasts. Although they were very scared of Agunas, they were not frightened of Feng Yuan. They curiously examined him, and the three Spirit Beasts slowly drew closer. Xiao Ji did not chase them away because after all, it could understand what He Nanqing had just said. For such pitiable companions, it did not mind sharing a bit of Feng Yuan’s attention with them.
At this mont, noticing that the three Spirit Beasts seed not to reject Qi Chen, Feng Yuan’s eyes flickered as he suggested,
“Why not…let Qi Chen take care of them? This seems quite suitable~”
“What are you thinking…”
Looking at Feng Yuan speechlessly, Qi Chen didn’t know what to say to him. What was this guy fantasizing about? How could he take care of them? He wasn’t as idle as Feng Yuan was; Xiao Ji could train on its own even when left alone, not to ntion that Kong Qing could help him take care of other Spirit Beasts.
Although he only needed to take care of Ah Mu, arranging Ah Mu’s training and taking care of him already occupied much of his ti, let alone taking care of them.
Even if it didn’t require too much effort, he couldn’t guarantee that he would always be able to take care of them, and he didn’t understand what Feng Yuan was thinking to make such a proposition.
“Actually, if you can take good care of them, it would benefit you a lot. After all, their produce is very useful to you and Xiao Shuang,” Feng Yuan spoke again, trying to persuade him. In fact, the produce of the Flower Leaf Tree Three Spirit Beasts was all directly aid at combat Spirit Beasts and quite versatile, or else everyone wouldn’t be chasing after them. There are Spirit Beasts whose produce could be used in dicine.
Like the Mianlan type of Spirit Beasts, for example, their produce doesn’t have much dicinal value, which is why not many people are interested in them. However, the Flower Leaf Tree is the opposite. If Qi Chen raises these three Spirit Beasts well, he wouldn’t have to worry about the funding for Ah Mu’s training in the future.
Staring at Feng Yuan for a long ti, Qi Chen said with so dissatisfaction,
“How is that different from those who treat Spirit Beasts as rchandise?”
“It’s not the sa. If you truly take care of them, the fruits they give back to you will be of high quality. Moreover, this is not a trade, not a unilateral contribution; such a relationship won’t last long,” He Nanqing spoke up, even though she initially hoped to entrust them to Feng Yuan. But now it seed that Qi Chen wasn’t a bad choice either since he was Feng Yuan’s good friend and undoubtedly had great potential in the future. Besides, his Beast Tar happened to be the Wood-Attribute Giant Tree Demon, giving him an advantage in caring for Wood Spirit Beasts.
Moreover, seeing that the three Spirit Beasts were even afraid of Agunas, she would not feel at ease entrusting them to soone else. Particularly, since Ah Mu approaching did not cause any abnormal reaction from the three Spirit Beasts, she decisively decided to have Qi Chen help take care of them,
As for the so-called produce? That could completely be seen as a reward for taking care of them attentively, and in fact, those items directly produced by Spirit Beasts are indeed influenced by the Spirit Beasts themselves. The quality of products from well-cared-for Spirit Beasts is always a bit better.
