Chapter 2914  Don’t Even Think About Stalling for Time!

The rotten smell in the room was really nauseating. It was not until Feng Nuo walked out of the room that his brows relaxed again. When Fan Lou used the medicine and changed into the clothes he had prepared for him, it wouldn't be too impolite for him to present himself before Lord Feng Qing.

Initially, Feng Nuo looked down on Fan Lou. It was true that the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves would bestow their blood essence to other wolves. However, Fan Lou could be said to be receiving the lowest bloodline among all those bestowed by the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.

Feng Nuo's friendship with Fan Lou started when Fan Lou established connections with the Dark Pufferfish. His attitude towards Feng Nuo eased their relationship smoothly. However, Feng Nuo no longer thought highly of Fan Lou as before. He couldn't help but feel that Fan Lou was about to be doomed. Due to the change in Feng Nuo's opinion of Fan Lou, he was exceptionally dissatisfied with Fan Lou's attitude.

If Fan Lou had no connection with Lin Yuan and merely allied with the Dark Pufferfish, he would be the benefactor of the Dark Pufferfish and would have their backing, just as Ink Scar had said.

Even if Fan Lou risked letting the chaotic wind energy enter his heart, he would not heal himself. The more miserable he was, the greater the reaction of the Dark Pufferfish would be. However, Lin Yuan had already decided on his reward. The envoys of the Lonely River's Four Species Overlords were under Fan Lou's control. At a time like this, Fan Lou had to prioritize his health. The spiritual ingredients that Feng Nuo had given him were not sufficient to heal his injured roots, but they could mitigate the deterioration of his injuries, which was enough for Fan Lou.

As for the outfit that Feng Nuo had given him, Fan Lou had no intention of changing into it. Firstly, Ink Scar and the others were on their way here. There was no way he would be able to make it in time in his current state. Furthermore, Fan Lou felt that he had to let Ink Scar and the others see his miserable side. His misery would reach Lin Yuan's ears through the words of Ink Scar and the others. Lin Yuan would know how much he had sacrificed, and at the same time, it would also agitate the Andra elders.

The Andra clan's elder who had been communicating with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves was Andre. Andre was already very dissatisfied with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves because of Feng Xuan. Fan Lou played a pivotal role in the cooperation between the Bloodians and the Lonely River's Four Species Overlord. When Andre saw him in such a state, he would definitely punish the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.

Fan Lou couldn't be bothered to stage another act for Feng Nuo, and the same applied to Feng Qing as he no longer had any value for Fan Lou. It was also a good opportunity for him to change his attitude towards Feng Qing without alerting the Andra clan.

As a spy, Fan Lou knew very well not to attract the attention of others. If his unusual behavior attracted attention, it would be very easy for others to catch onto his vulnerabilities.

Feng Nuo, who was standing at the door, frowned. In Feng Nuo's opinion, Fan Lou's actions seemed rather slow, considering that Lord Feng Qing was waiting for him.

Just as Feng Nuo was about to rush Fan Lou, he saw a group of people rushing towards him. Not only was there Lord Feng Qing but there were also envoys from the Four Species Overlords of the Lonely River and even an elder of the Andra clan. It was the most luxurious lineup that Feng Nuo could imagine.

It was impossible for these people to be looking for him. He had no connection with the Four Species Overlords of the Lonely River, nor had he had any direct contact with the elder of the Andra clan. They could only be here to look for Fan Lou.

The moment Feng Nuo met Feng Qing's gaze, he knew that he had messed up. What Lord Feng Qing wanted was to heal Fan Lou's injuries. He did not want the Four Species Overlords of the Lonely River and the Andra clan's elder to be dissatisfied with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves because of Fan Lou's injuries and let it affect their cooperation. Feng Nuo really did not expect Fan Lou to be of so much importance to the Four Species Overlords of the Lonely River.

Feng Xuan was not among the group of people, which surprised Feng Nuo. Little did Feng Nuo know that Feng Xuan had just been killed by Andre, the elder of the Andra clan, with his own hands. In Feng Nuo's heart, establishing a relationship with Feng Xuan was far more beneficial to the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves than with Fan Lou.

Feng Qing lifted Feng Nuo up with one hand. The moment he saw the expression on Feng Nuo's face, his heart sank to the bottom. Feng Qing glared fiercely at Feng Nuo. If the messenger didn't understand what he meant, Feng Nuo should understand! Feng Nuo had done this because he looked down on Fan Lou. His arrogance had really brought great trouble to the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.

Feng Qing looked at Feng Nuo, who was in front of him, and said, "Feng Nuo, these are the envoys of the Four Species Overlords from the Lonely River. You've met them before. This is Elder Andre. You probably didn't have the chance to meet him before, right?"

Upon realizing his failure to handle the situation adequately, Feng Nuo immediately started to remedy the situation. He gestured for the other two members of the Forbidden Wolf Team guarding the door to enter the room.

Feng Qing noticed this and planned to stall for time. With every minute of delay, Fan Lou would be in a much better state. By the time Ink Scar saw Fan Lou, it would be much easier for him to calm down.

Andre could not be bothered to feign civility with Feng Qing here. However, after pondering for a moment, he did not stop Feng Qing from delaying. Instead, he chose to cooperate with him.

The life and death of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves was completely in the hands of the Andra clan. Andre did not have the slightest intention of showing consideration for the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. Yet, he didn't want the Dark Pufferfish to vent their anger on the Andra clan because of Fan Lou's condition.

It was true that the Andra clan had first thought that the Dark Pufferfish's venom was extremely effective against the mermaids, which was why they had decided to contact the mermaids. But now, the Dark Pufferfish had established contact with many Bloodian clans like the Allen clan. If they angered the Dark Pufferfish, the Dark Pufferfish could abandon the Andra clan at any time and collaborate with other Bloodian clans. If that happened, it would not affect the Dark Pufferfish, but it would severely affect the interests of the Andra clan.

After the Dark Pufferfish's poison was confirmed to be effective against the mermaids, they had become highly sought after among the Bloodians. Many Bloodian factions were eager to establish ties with the Dark Pufferfish. This was the main reason why Andre would take Ink Scar's attitude into careful consideration when handling this matter.

"It's true that I've never had any contact with him before. Since you're guarding here, I'd like to ask you how Fan Lou is doing now. Will the injuries he suffers affect his safety?"

Andre's words made Feng Nuo's expression freeze. In fact, Feng Nuo didn't know how to reply to Andre. Ever since Fan Lou was injured by Feng Xuan, he had been lying on the bed without saying a word. His roots had been severely injured from the beginning. It was under the circumstance of saving his own life that he spoke up to ask for resources.

If he refused to hand over the medical resources to Fan Lou, Fan Lou would lose his life in less than half a day. His injuries were beyond serious, but Feng Nuo clearly could not directly reveal Fan Lou's current situation. However, if he were to lie and say that Fan Lou's injuries were not serious, it would be equivalent to lying to the Andra clan. As a dependent species, deceiving a high-ranking species was a grave offense punishable by extinction.

Before Feng Nuo could contemplate the matter further, he needed to figure out the best course of action that would most benefit the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.

Ink Scar, who was standing at the side, snorted unhappily, "Don't think we can't tell you're stalling."

With that, Ink Scar waved his hand, and the envoys from the other three species of the Lonely River walked past Feng Nuo and opened the door.

The members of the Forbidden Wolf Team were all in front of the house. Upon knowing that the Four Species Overlords of the Lonely River were cooperating with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves, they did not stop the envoys of the Four Species Overlords of the Lonely River without Feng Qing and Feng Nuo's orders.

The moment the door opened, Andre keenly caught the rotten smell coming from the room. The putrid smell carried the vibrant scent of blood, indicating that the decay wasn't from dead things but rather from living things. The five senses of the Bloodians were stronger than other species because of their bloodline.

However, the World Emperor/Divine Kingdom envoys led by the Lonely River's Four Species Overlords would certainly also be able to tell whether the rotten smell came from a living thing or a dead thing.

Regardless of the circumstances, Fan Lou had contributed greatly to the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. Feng Qing was so ruthless to the extent that he didn't even attend to Fan Lou's injuries.

As a witness, Andre knew how badly Fan Lou had been injured by Feng Xuan. If he had not been treated, Fan Lou would probably be on the verge of death. If it weren't for the fact that Feng Qing was still a member of the Honor Absent Parliament, Andre would have beaten him up so badly that he would be as severely injured, so he would also experience the feeling of being denied treatment.

Ink Scar was well aware that Fan Lou was Lin Yuan's favorite. Although he had expected Fan Lou to be in a bad condition after being attacked by Feng Xuan, he had not expected Fan Lou to be in such a miserable state. Ink Scar and the others harbored no feelings towards Fan Lou. They weren't angry because of what had happened to Fan Lou. The anger they displayed was purely an act to please Fan Lou.

Real anger involved forbearance and decisiveness, yet the anger they feigned appeared frantic and aggressive.

Ink Scar saw that the Mantis Stone Crabs and the Hidden Fog Turtles had entered the house before him to provide Fan Lou with medical supplies that could heal his damaged roots. He knew that there would not be much of an effect if he went in now.

Fan Lou must be extremely dissatisfied with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves after suffering such a huge grievance. Having understood this point, Ink Scar directly fired at Feng Qing, "Feng Qing, you've been emphasizing the sincerity between you and our Dark Pufferfish. Is the way you treat our Dark Pufferfish's benefactor a sign of your sincerity?"

Ink Scar's anger could only be described as hysteria. Even Andre, who was beside him, was a little frightened. Even if Fan Lou had saved an important core member of the Dark Pufferfish, did they really owe Fan Lou such a debt of gratitude?

The Andra clan had already thoroughly investigated Fan Lou's background, and it was rather complicated. First, he followed the Alluring Foxes, and then he was recruited by Feng Qing. However, Fan Lou had never had any prior contact with the factions there before he went to the Lonely River.

Because of the thorough investigation, Andre did not suspect that there was something suspicious between Fan Lou and the Dark Pufferfish. He simply believed that the Dark Pufferfish placed a high value on relationships.

This fact made Andre very happy. It was more beneficial for the Andra clan to establish a connection with a faction that valued relationships than a faction that was hostile to them.

Ink Scar immediately vented all his anger on Feng Qing. He had to somehow find an outlet to vent the anger in his heart, after all. Andre provided Ink Scar with ample opportunity to vent his anger, preventing him from directing his fury toward the Andra clan.

Actually, no matter how much Ink Scar wanted to show off in front of Fan Lou, he would not vent his anger on the Andra clan.

Many of Fan Lou's plans were intertwined with the Andra clan. It was not suitable for him to jeopardize the relationship between Fan Lou and the Andra clan. If he disrupted Lin Yuan's plan, not only would he not be able to curry favor with him, but he would also incur punishment from Lin Yuan. That would not be good!

Feng Qing was also taken aback by Ink Scar's words. He had never expected Ink Scar to choose to confront him directly on the spot. He assumed that even if Ink Scar was dissatisfied with him, he would only hinder the cooperation with the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves in the future. It was because it was not a wise choice for an insignificant figure like Fan Lou to offend the entire Andra clan, no matter how one looked at it! The Chaos Wind Demon Wolves were not the only ones who benefited from the trade. The Dark Pufferfish also reaped significant benefits.

Feng Qing valued his dignity greatly. At present, he felt embarrassed and humiliated by Ink Scar's words. However, the current situation did not allow Feng Qing to quibble. The truth was there, and even if Feng Qing were to try to argue, nobody would believe him.

If it weren't for the fact that the Dark Pufferfish was cooperating with the Andra clan, and given the Andra clan high regard for their cooperation with the Dark Pufferfish, Feng Qing would probably confront Ink Scar's targeted remarks directly.

Who was Feng Qing, and who was Ink Scar? Feng Qing was the leader of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves, but Ink Scar was only an envoy of the Dark Pufferfish.

Even if the overall strength of the Dark Pufferfish were not much different from the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves, the Dark Pufferfish were ultimately just a species on the Lonely River's side.

The leader of the Dark Pufferfish didn't hold a position in the Honor Absent Parliament like he did. From a multidimensional perspective, the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves were superior to the Dark Pufferfish. Even the leader of the Dark Pufferfish shouldn't speak to him in such a manner. Yet, Ink Scar, a mere envoy, actually dared to question him!

Feng Qing forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart and said sincerely, "I really didn't handle this matter well! I have always valued Fan Lou very much. Fan Lou was not a member of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. It was I who bestowed the blood essence of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves to him, giving him the chance to become one of us.

"I know that you Dark Pufferfish are very grateful for Fan Lou's help, but if I hadn't sent Fan Lou to your territory to negotiate with you, I don't reckon Fan Lou would have the opportunity to save an important figure of the Dark Pufferfish!

"The friendship between the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves and the Dark Pufferfish indeed began because of Fan Lou, but we cannot attribute all of it solely to Fan Lou."
