However, no one had ever done so. The reason was very simple. After all, the former Spirit Beast King was once an invincible existence. Now that time had passed and his words were no longer so binding, no one would really disregard him. Moreover, there was a deeper meaning behind this.
The reason why the Star Ink Milk was so rare was not only its great effect on human cultivators, but also its rarity. As the saying went, the rarer something was, the greater its value. If the Spirit Beast Clan continuously sold the Star Ink Milk, the rare goods would no longer be rare, and they would not be able to sell it at a good price. The Spirit Beast Clan naturally would not do such a stupid thing.
Of course, the most important thing was that this method of fishing with the Star Ink Milk not only allowed them to collect the Star Ink Milk appropriately, but also allowed their subordinates to take the opportunity to fish for profits. It was also a disguised reward. Not only did the higher-ups save trouble, but the subordinates would also be happy. It could be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
"What about your clansmen?" Lin Yi asked with a smile. These two were clan leaders. Without their care, it would be difficult for the Great Flame Lion Clan and the Big Spider Clan to gain a foothold in the south island, which was densely packed with powerful spirit beasts.
"We're guarding the door here, so these little ones naturally have to come and help us. However, they're all hiding behind the ruins. We can't let you human cultivators find them, or else we'll alert the enemy." The Great Flame Lion laughed.
"Oh, right. Speaking of alerting the enemy, if people like Chang Daoping were to go back and spread the news of your robbery after suffering a loss, wouldn't the trap you set be exposed? This isn't a long-term solution, right? "Lin Yi asked.
"Hehe, who would be so big-mouthed to spread such a shameful and unlucky thing? Wouldn't they be embarrassing themselves? Human cultivators are famous for being selfish. He's unlucky here, and he can't wait for everyone in the world to come here and follow in his footsteps. This way, he'll feel better. Why would he be so kind as to remind others! "The Great Flame Lion laughed as he spoke. If it weren't for this inherent selfish nature, they really wouldn't be able to do this business for long.
"That's true …" Lin Yi thought about it and felt that it was true. Even if it was him, if it wasn't a close friend, he probably wouldn't tell anyone about it, let alone others.
What's more, when he and Huang Xiaotao were stopped, the gloating expressions on Chang Daoping's and the others' faces were already a living example. Everyone was out of luck except for the two of them. No matter who it was, they would feel unbalanced.
"Moreover, if word gets out that there are fewer human cultivators, the two of us probably won't be working here anymore. We'll think of a way to transfer ourselves away to do other missions. After all, we can't keep wasting our time in this godforsaken place," Big Spider added with a smile.
"That's right, we'll go wherever there's more money. We're not alone. They all have big families to support. " The Great Fire Lion nodded repeatedly. He and the Spider had always been enemies and friends. In the secular world, they were mostly enemies. However, there were many powerful spirit beasts on Heaven-stage Island, so the two of them could only hug each other and advance and retreat together.
"Well, I think it's actually good for you guys now. You've just arrived and you don't have a territory. It's really risky to wander around with so many people. It just so happens that no one will compete with you for territory in the ruins. It's a rare place for you to settle down now." Lin Yi nodded.
"That's right. What we need to do now is to fish for more money in this place and gain a foothold. As for how to develop in the future, we'll have to wait and see. "Big Spider suddenly found a confidant. He turned his head and curled his lips at the Great Fire Lion. "See that? Great minds think alike. If we really listened to your stupid idea and wandered around outside, who knows how many of our clans would have died. We wouldn't have such a stable life now."
"Okay, okay, okay. You're smart enough." The Great Fire Lion's face showed a rare shyness. He quickly changed the topic and asked Lin Yi, "Benefactor, let's not talk about us. Let's talk about you. Why are you here? And this person next to you, is she your … "
At this point, the Great Fire Lion and Big Spider stared at Huang Xiaotao and laughed mischievously. Huang Xiaotao lowered her head in embarrassment.
"I almost forgot. Come, let me introduce you. She's Huang Xiaotao, a disciple of Blue Cloud Pavilion on the north island." Lin Yi smiled as he introduced the two. "Xiaotao, these two are old friends I've known since I was in the common world- you've seen their true forms as well. They're the leaders of the fire lions and the big spiders."
"Xiaotao greets the two seniors." Huang Xiaotao hurriedly took off her veil and bowed to the Great Fire Lion and Big Spider. Since they were old friends, there was naturally no need to continue hiding her appearance.
"No, no, we don't dare. We're not seniors. You're our sister-in-law." The Great Fire Lion and Big Spider quickly returned the greeting. In terms of age and strength, they could indeed be considered seniors. However, Lin Yi was their benefactor, so it was not too much to call her sister-in-law.
This "sister-in-law" made Huang Xiaotao, who was already thin-skinned, even more embarrassed. Her face blushed all the way to her ears.
"Alright, there's no need to stand on ceremony with each other. You're all on the same side anyway," Lin Yi said with a smile.
"Yes, yes. Benefactor, you just said that sister-in-law Xiaotao is a disciple of Blue Cloud Pavilion on the north island? How did you two meet? "the Great Fire Lion asked curiously.
"It's very simple. Because I'm now the same as her. I'm also a disciple of Blue Cloud Pavilion on the north island, so naturally we know each other," Lin Yi replied with a smile.
"Benefactor, you've also joined the Three Major Pavilions on the north island?" the Great Fire Lion and Big Spider asked curiously.
"That's right. When I first came to Heaven-stage Island through the teleportation formation, I was randomly teleported to the north island. Then, I joined the Three Major Pavilions on the north island. Now that I think about it, it's been more than a year. The experiences I've had during this period are also difficult to explain in a few words." Lin Yi sighed in his heart. If he really had to count it, a lot of things had happened in this year. Any one of them alone was a legendary experience that was hard for others to imagine.
"The North Island and the South Island are thousands of miles apart from each other. Benefactor, why are you here?" The Great Fire Lion and Big Spider could not help but look at each other. "Could it be that you're here for the Star Ink Milk? It can't be. I remember that the news of the Star Ink Milk was basically only released in the nearby waters. Has it already spread so far?"
"Damn … Of course not. This is actually still a secret outside. Not many people know about it!" Lin Yi shook his head. (To be continued)
