Fey Evolution Merchant Novel - Chapter 2144

2144 White Speak’s Broken Arm!

After they recovered, Wendy immediately turned into a small snake and climbed up his left leg to reach his arm and started to affectionately nudge his neck.

Wendy had not seen Lin Yuan in some time and missed Lin Yuan terribly.

After Lin Yuan rescued it from a near-dead state, its affection for Lin Yuan became even more uncontrollable.

After Rising Lizard went over to Lin Yuan, it dared not interact with him.

!!
Rising Lizard had turned into a big killing machine.

Apart from the long horns on its head and spikes jutting from its tail, every protrusion on its skin was a dagger in itself that could easily slice Lin Yuan apart.

Although Lin Yuan could not interact with Lin Yuan and express its affection, anyone who owned a pet dog could tell from its eyes that it was looking at Lin Yuan the same way a puppy would gaze at its owner.

Although White Pavilion was White Speak’s son, they had completely different personalities.

White Pavilion always greeted Lin Yuan enthusiastically.

But this time, it did not move after it recovered and continued to stare dazedly at its feet.

Ever since Lin Yuan heard the Kill Food Sky Butterfly’s report, he knew that White Pavilion was injured.

Although it had become an Apostle, it was still a young dimensional lifeform and its mind was not yet mature.

Lin Yuan walked up to it and squatted down. He stroked White Pavilion’s long snout.

“White Pavilion, every dimensional lifeform has to be able to sustain loss during battle. You might have lost a few Favored Believers but the faith power in your totem hasn’t decreased. You will be able to gain more Favored Believers very soon. All you need to do is work a little harder and you’ll be able to recoup your losses.”

Lin Yuan had comforted White Pavilion in such a way because he knew and could tell what it was thinking.

White Pavilion was an Apostle and did not feel much attachment to its Favored Believers. What it missed was the loss in benefits.

The relationship between Apostles and Favored Believers was one where the Favored Believers did all they could to gain their Apostle’s favor.

Thus, the structure of the marsh world was one that centered around the Apostles’ benefits.

White Pavilion felt slightly better after it was comforted by Lin Yuan.

But this was the first time that it had experienced such a loss and it needed time to readjust back to its normal state.

Lin Yuan let out a sigh.

He had neglected Wendy, Rising Lizard, and White Pavilion’s education because he had not been focusing on the marsh world. As a result, the three of them did not even have the courage to face failure.

Lin Yuan said very seriously to the three of them, “As the three of you become stronger, you will encounter increasingly ferocious opponents. Your life has been too comfortable. You don’t know how weak you truly are. The only way you’ll be able to fight back in similar situations in the future is to work hard to become stronger.”

The three of them took in what Lin Yuan said. They fell silent and started to contemplate over his words.

After the Kill Food Sky Butterfly was done noting the damages sustained, it went to Lin Yuan and said, “Lin Yuan, luckily the Drugged Snake Eagles were focused on Wendy and the rest. The losses sustained by the territory aren’t significant. We only lost four of the Medusa Snake Demons who helped to water the Soldier Ration Radishes and around 40 of the Marsh Crocodiles who were being used to transport resources.”

Lin Yuan nodded.

Such losses were acceptable.

The Medusa Snake Demons were the favorite food of the Drugged Snake Eagles and it was impossible for the Drugged Snake Eagles not to kill them.

With Wendy’s mother, Scale Concubine, around, it was easier to train more of the Marsh Crocodiles who were used to transport resources. All that was needed was time and they could have many of the trained Marsh Crocodiles as they wanted.

Lin Yuan used to think that the territory would be secure as long as White Speak was around to guard it. Thus, he had let his guard down.

This incident was a sobering wake-up call for Lin Yuan.

Wen Yu’s fey with the barren bloodline and the Sentient Being Protective Dragon were both in the marsh world. The loss of either would result in damages to Lin Yuan’s foundational power.

Once such strategic-class resources were lost, they could not be recovered.

Lin Yuan was not appeased by the deaths of the Drugged Snake Eagles.

The Drugged Snake Eagles had said that they were loyal to the Prayer Glow Apostle.

He hoped that he would be able to quell his anger by killing the Prayer Glow Apostle and gain a decent sacred source lifeform at the same time.

The Medusa Snake Demons usually liked to move on their own.

But within the territory, they had become a unit.

This was because there was no competition in the territory, allowing friendship to be bred and deepened amongst the Medusa Snake Demons.

Lin Yuan intended on compensating all of the Medusa Snake Demons in the territory by giving them some of the ripe Storing Ability White Peaches and Deposit Ability Litchi Branches.

Most of the daily tasks in the territory were handled by the Medusa Snake Demons.

The Hundred Questions Beasts were also startled.

Lin Yuan instructed Genius to comfort them.

Lin Yuan prioritized White Speak’s situation over meeting with Jin Qianxun.

At first, Lin Yuan only saw White Speak as a tool.

But after time passed, Lin Yuan developed a relationship with White Speak.

White Speak had helped Lin Yuan substantially.

Without White Speak, both he and the Mother of Bloodbath would have been killed by Shark Awn.

…

On a cliff that was more than a thousand meters tall, the water that fell from it could easily generate enough force to break a steel board.

Due to the inconsistencies of the ground height in the marsh world, waterfalls were commonplace.

However, waterfalls that were more than 1000 meters tall were still rare.

At this moment, a man wearing silver armor with a large hole in his neck was hugging his broken arm.

With his face pale, he was looking at a middle-aged man with plain features and wearing green robes who was standing a distance away.

The middle-aged man had long dark-green hair and a rope of vines was tied through the hole in his wrist.

White Speak’s broken arm was resting on this rope.

White Speak did not come from prestige.

Although it had mutated from the White Evil Marsh Crocodile, it did not have much that allowed it to hold its head up high in front of other dimensional lifeforms.

After a lifetime of fighting, White Speak’s mind was toughened and his will was strong.

At this moment, White Speak was beside himself with anxiousness.

Normally, White Speak could roll grades to do battle when it was boosted by Lin Yuan’s faith power.

But without being boosted by Lin Yuan’s faith power, White Speak struggled to match up to the power of Apostles.
