Bai Shang was very curious about how her fifth younger brother, Ji Fa, made the once arrogant Quanrong people so humble.

So, she quietly used the Telepathy Skill to explore Rong Lie’s inner world through telepathy.

The inner world of a Quanrong person is like a single-track mind, making it very easy to explore, and soon, Bai Shang gained insights.

Touching, behind, can’t stand it...

When these fragmented words came from Rong Lie’s mind and were overheard by Bai Shang.

Bai Shang’s face instantly turned green.

She felt like her soul was somehow polluted!

She wasn’t pure anymore!

Telepathy is like this, although it seems powerful and useful, it actually carries substantial risks.

Telepathy can eavesdrop on others’ private thoughts, but the amount of information gathered depends on each person’s "mental resilience."

The more resilient a person is, the less information telepathy can obtain.

Besides, there’s the issue of information processing, transforming the information telepathy overhears into one’s own knowledge requires a process.

And a large amount of ineffective, even potentially nauseating information, inevitably mixes in.

Causing tons of soul damage as a result!

As for why the information coming from Rong Lie’s mind was fragmented and minimal, it wasn’t because his mind was particularly resilient, but because his mental activity was just that sparse...

This is characteristic of the Quanrong, with not much inner drama.

Bai Shang took a long time to digest the information she had just obtained from Rong Lie’s mind.

Her gaze towards Han Zhan became much more complex for a moment.

Han Zhan was still unaware that his tall and radiant positive energy image had already been twisted in Bai Shang’s heart into that of a pervert.

He was still discussing the specifics of the trade with Rong Lie.

"Molten Fire Stone exchanged for Starlight Stone, one-to-one exchange, it’s acceptable."

The current stock of Starlight Stones became less scarce after Xiqi acquired the Divine Statue.

In contrast, the Molten Fire Stones, which could withstand high temperatures and sun exposure, were in higher demand.

As for the Quanrong, their demand for Starlight Stones was more urgent.

Due to a new divine wrath and the threat of the Molten Giant.

Starlight Stone is an extremely yin stone; when ground into powder and applied to weapons, it can deal massive damage to Lava Monsters.

The Molten Giant, as an upgraded version of a Lava Monster, is naturally greatly affected by the Starlight Stone.

"In addition to trading Molten Fire Stone and Starlight Stone, I also want to talk with the person in charge of the Xiqi Ancestral Temple about food issues."

"Especially, the Celestial God Sacrifice."

After Rong Lie finished speaking, he looked ahead.

His gaze switched back and forth between Bai Shang and Lu Tao, pondering which of the two might be the person in charge.

At this moment, Han Zhan lightly cleared his throat.

"The matter of food, it’s not that it can’t be talked about. But it depends on what kind of offer the Quanrong can make."

Han Zhan’s words made Rong Lie turn his head sharply to look at him, his mouth opening slightly.

"You..." he asked somewhat uncertainly.

"Can you be the master of the Ancestral Temple?"

Then, in Rong Lie’s shocked and bewildered gaze, Han Zhan nodded slightly, confirming his suspicion.

"Yes."

"Let’s get to know each other again, my name is Ji Fa, and I am currently the acting administrator of the Ancestral Temple, managing the specific affairs of the Ancestral Temple and Xiqi."

"Additionally, it is I who have conducted special handling of the Celestial God Sacrifices, fulfilling the needs of the Sun God."

Rong Lie leaned back tactically, too surprised to speak.

Turns out I was trying to undermine the proxy of the Xiqi Ancestral Temple?!

This truly is... as expected of me!

Rong Lie’s mind made a rapid turn, suddenly flattering himself.

Indeed, this is the kind of thinking that a Quanrong should have.

"My vision is just that sharp, even when undermining, I only target the high-levels of the opposing side, as expected of me!"

Thinking of this, Rong Lie reeled back his thoughts and began to consider the question Han Zhan had just raised.

Compensation.

What kind of compensation could the Quanrong offer to purchase this piece of information?

"The Quanrong can provide Xiqi with Lava Monsters." After a brief contemplation, Rong Lie said.

"Hmm?" Han Zhan gave him a surprised look.

"Not the type of Lava Monsters you are thinking of, but ones we, the Quanrong, have bred ourselves."

Han Zhan: "..."

Do you want to listen to what you’re saying?

Breeding Lava Monsters ourselves, what kind of operation is this?

With further explanation from Rong Lie, Han Zhan gradually understood.

The so-called breeding of Lava Monsters is actually a kind of similar "domestication" operation.

It’s something that only the Quanrong, and none of the other tribes, would attempt.

Truly... bold.

The domesticated Lava Monsters can be used as warriors, hard labor.

They are extremely heat resistant and can walk even under the scorching sun.

Moreover, they do not require food, just some short sleep.

After all, as monsters sent down by the Fire Celestial God as divine punishment, their strength is undeniable.

"I can provide the domesticated Lava Monsters to Xiqi. With these Lava Monsters, there will be less manpower shortage whether it’s for construction or defense."

"If the Lava Monsters can truly be domesticated, why haven’t you mentioned this before?" At this moment, second senior brother Lu Tao came over to join the discussion.

"Not mentioned before because it wasn’t necessary."

Rong Lie buzzed, "The domesticated Lava Monsters were used by us to combat those creatures and weren’t meant to be sold."

But now it’s different.

The Molten Giant is far stronger than the Lava Monster, the latter is simply no match.

Even without trading, the Quanrong couldn’t convert the Lava Monsters into effective combat power.

Plus, the news coming out of Xiqi made them shift their focus to pleasing the Fire Celestial God.

This way, the trade was facilitated.

"What’s the specific quantity?" After a brief pause, Han Zhan asked.

Rong Lie raised a finger.

"One?"

"No, a hundred." Rong Lie corrected, "A hundred Lava Monsters for one batch of Celestial God Sacrifices."

The generosity of the Quanrong in their offer exceeded Han Zhan’s expectations.

Behind him, Bai Shang and Lu Tao were both somewhat tempted.

With Chang Hao gone and no Warrior Puppets, they were already troubled with the labor issue.

This was indeed a pressing need.

But they said nothing, leaving their gaze on Han Zhan, waiting for him to make the final decision.

Unexpectedly, Han Zhan shook his head.

"A hundred? No, at least a thousand."

Under Bai Shang’s and Lu Tao’s surprised gaze, in front of Rong Lie’s slightly furrowed brows, Han Zhan explained unhurriedly,

"If it’s regular food, a hundred Lava Monsters would suffice."

"However, if it’s the Celestial God Sacrifice, then a thousand Lava Monsters is the minimum."

"Besides, I will also give you a piece of information for free as a complimentary consultation service for completing this trade."

Listening to Han Zhan’s words, Rong Lie’s furrowed brow gradually relaxed.

He nodded and unexpectedly agreed to this information!
