Chapter 561: Section 348: Tell Zi Di

In the garden at night.

The water in the fountain murmured softly.

The Dragon-man youth and Bu Quan faced each other, neither speaking for a moment.

Bu Quan, looking at the stunned expression on the face of the Dragon-man youth, suddenly came to her senses, “Ah, Long Fu squad leader, I was talking nonsense just now! Don’t take it to heart!”

The corners of the Dragon-man youth’s mouth twitched as he forced a laugh, “Miss Bu Quan can also make jokes. Tonight, I’ve seen your amusing side.”

The youth tried to alleviate the awkward atmosphere, emphasizing the words “make jokes.”

Then, he shifted the conversation back, “After all, my sudden invitation for you to join my mercenary group was too abrupt.”

The Dragon-man youth, with a hint of seriousness and a sincere gaze, said, “However, Miss Bu Quan, my invitation was completely serious and filled with sincerity. Please do consider it thoroughly and seriously.”

The Dragon-man youth could feel the affection revealed in Bu Quan’s words just now.

“Is it because I defeated and killed Teng Donglang that she feels overly grateful?”

He could understand such gratitude.

However, Bu Quan’s emotional state was clearly not right.

Honestly, just now, the Dragon-man youth indeed felt a strong impulse.

He really wanted to grab Bu Quan and head to the alchemy branch right away, sign a contract on the spot, and put her bewildered self onto the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps’ armored vehicle.

The Dragon-man youth felt that if he did this, the chances of success were very high.

“But, doing so would be taking advantage of someone’s vulnerability.”

“If Bu Quan agrees to join the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps impulsively, what if she regrets it later?”

A coerced melon is not sweet.

The Dragon-man youth did not want to treat this talented young girl in such a manner.

Moreover, what he needed more was unity.

If Bu Quan came to regret her decision and found it difficult to leave the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps, the negative emotions that would build up could become a ticking time bomb over time.

Also, there was another point.

“I always feel that attracting Bu Quan like this might bring me significant trouble in the future.”

The Dragon-man youth did not specifically know why he had this inexplicable premonition.

Upon hearing the Dragon-man youth reiterate his invitation, Bu Quan’s blush reduced slightly, showing a serious expression, “I, I understand. I will definitely consider it seriously, Long Fu squad leader.”

The Dragon-man youth smiled gently, his tone soft, “Could you respond soon? Because we will be leaving Snowbird Port soon.”

Bu Quan, greatly surprised, quickly asked, “Long Fu squad leader, you are leaving already?”

This was clearly beyond Bu Quan’s expectations.

The Dragon-man youth’s duel victory over Teng Donglang had made his name known nationwide. The downfall of the Saber Gang also allowed this foreign Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps to have a significant opportunity in Snowbird Port.

Many believed that the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps would stay in Snowbird Port, seizing this rare chance to grow and put down deep roots.

They were unaware of the true intentions of the survivors.

The Dragon-man youth replied, “Yes, our original plan was to head to the Royal Capital of the Ice Sculpture Kingdom.”

“In Snowbird Port, we will only set up a branch.”

“We will leave a group of people here to engage in small-scale development.”

“But most of us will travel together to the Royal Capital.”

Indeed, that was the current plan of the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps.

The shops traded to the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps by the City Lord of Snowbird Port would become a main sales point for distributing arms for the survivors.

Dragon Force Potions would be their flagship product for a while.

Ships like the Deep Sea Monster Fish would remain in Snowbird Port.

Since the Royal Capital of the Ice Sculpture Kingdom was inland, ships obviously could not go there.

The survivors planned to turn Snowbird Port into a potential retreat.

Soon, the figures of the Dragon-man youth and Bu Quan reappeared in the grand hall.

The band played a lingering dance tune.

Already a dozen couples were elegantly dancing in the dance area.

The second dance had already started.

The appearance of the Dragon-man youth and Bu Quan immediately drew many people’s attentions.

Mainly because of the Dragon-man youth.

Undoubtedly, he was the main character of the evening’s banquet!

The Dragon-man youth nodded and smiled, responding to those well-meaning gazes.

Bu Quan walked behind him, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, lost in thought.

She had now realized that if she agreed to join the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps, her life would take a significant turn.

Making such a decision undoubtedly required great courage and expectations and judgments about the unknown.

When the third dance began, the Dragon-man youth, holding another female Snow Elf, slowly walked onto the dance floor.

As the leader of the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps, he had heavy social duties.

In the time that followed, while he occasionally danced, he spent more time mingling and conversing with various individuals.

Bu Quan, however, was distracted, sometimes even answering questions incorrectly.

This piqued the curiosity of many concerning what exactly had happened between the two when they had stepped out together earlier that evening.

As the banquet concluded, the guests dispersed.

The Dragon-man youth did not accept the City Lord of Snowbird Port’s request to stay, and took a carriage back to the dock.

A banquet left him physically and mentally exhausted, feeling no less than after a tough battle.

A confidant approached the City Lord of Snowbird Port, “City Lord, none of the beauties we prepared were successful, not even a dance with the squad leader of Long Fu. We had arranged for three beauties to visit his room late at night, but Long Fu unexpectedly left the City Lord’s residence. Should we send the beauties over to him now?”

The City Lord of Snowbird Port shook his head, “No need, let’s reserve that scheme for him to use.”

“I didn’t expect that even after drinking the Cold Love Wine, he could maintain such strong self-control.”

“An impressive guy, with such a firm will.”

“I now understand why he was appointed by the arms dealer behind him as their leader abroad.”

“Such a subordinate is indeed reliable.”

Following this incident, the City Lord of Snowbird Port’s opinion of the Dragon-man youth rose even higher.

“It’s just unexpected that Long Fu actually took the initiative to invite Bu Quan to join his Mercenary Group.”

“Should we stop this?”

The City Lord of Snowbird Port thought about this and couldn’t help but frown.

He instinctively wanted to prevent it.

The secret meeting between the Dragon-man youth and Bu Quan took place in his own City Lord’s residence garden. He was fully aware of the conversation they exchanged and their tone and expressions at the time.

“Bu Quan has a strong fondness for Long Fu, even developing feelings for him.”

“In that condition, the chances of her agreeing to join are not small.”

“If the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps really gets her, many would be shocked. The Alchemy Guild in the Royal Capital would also have a huge reaction. Bu Quan is considered their rising star with a limitless future and potential to become a pivotal figure.”

The City Lord of Snowbird Port had to admit that he felt a bit of envy and jealousy.

He had subtly expressed his intention to recruit her, but Bu Quan had flatly refused.

Bu Quan was aware of her value and backed by the Alchemy Guild, she did not need to sell herself for revenge success.

In fact, she preferred to take revenge with her own hands.

After returning to Snowbird Port, she had been trying to take revenge in her own way.

This time, she proactively gave treasures to the Dragon-man youth, based on her character traits and her way of acting.

“I’ll be the main force in annihilating the Saber Gang.”

“Even if Long Fu doesn’t kill Teng Donglang, I can make sure he dies on the dueling field!”

“But Bu Quan’s gratitude towards me is probably not even a fraction of what she feels towards Long Fu.”

“In the end, it’s because of the three items she gave willingly. Those Golden Level items provided great help to Long Fu in his tough battle against Teng Donglang.”

“Especially that Magic Scroll of Molten Lava Hell!”

“All of this gave Bu Quan a strong sense of involvement, making her feel like she and Long Fu were succeeding in their revenge together.”

“This is exactly the revenge she wanted!”

“Long Fu, without knowing it, had brought her exactly what she wanted.”

The City Lord of Snowbird Port analyzed deeply, feeling emotional within himself while also dismissing his impulse to secretly obstruct or spoil things.

“Forget it, Long Fu is not easy to fool.”

“He has backers, and now he’s nationally known. If I were found out obstructing him covertly, the damage to my reputation and interests would be too great.”

On Triangular Love Ship at the dock.

The Dragon-man youth and Zi Di were alone in a room.

The Dragon-man youth had shared everything that happened at the banquet with his beloved, focusing on his invitation to Bu Quan to join the Mercenary Group.

Zi Di immediately criticized the Dragon-man youth, “Squad leader, you were really too reckless!”

“Bu Quan’s fondness for you, for our Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps, shouldn’t be wasted like this.”

“If we really want to recruit her, I can come up with a better plan.”

“What you’ve done now is just too rash.”

“Ah…”

Zi Di sighed deeply, her disappointment showing.

“However, Bu Quan did not outright reject you but is really considering the invitation, which means we still have a chance!”

“Quick, tell me everything in detail, I need to analyze this properly.”

“So, Squad Leader, please, not just in one sentence, but rather, repeat every word, trying not to miss anything.”

“Ahem,” the Dragon-man youth felt guilty for some reason, “I’ll try my best.”

His tone suddenly made Zi Di dissatisfied.

The Ghost Girl emphasized, “Please understand, every word you say now could potentially impact whether we succeed in recruiting Bu Quan.”

“You’re not a Mage, you really can’t comprehend the significance of a Silver Level alchemy master!”

“Bu Quan has a broad future. Looking over all of Snowbird Port, she is the most precious gem among all talents!”

“The only concern might be her Bloodline Concentration. If she can’t be promoted to Golden Level in the future and remains limited to Silver Level, her value would greatly diminish.”

“But we don’t need to consider this, right?”

“Yes, yes,” the Dragon-man youth nodded quickly, “We have the Bloodline Purification Array. With it, even if Bu Quan’s Bloodline Concentration is limited, we can purify it and raise her talent limit.”

“I’ll try to repeat the previous situation as much as possible. Can you please not be so intense?”

Zi Di then nodded in satisfaction, “Don’t worry.”

The Dragon-man youth, of course, wasn’t reassured and emphasized again, “Promise me, don’t get too excited.”

“Alright, tell me now.”
