Chapter 1343: Liu Jie is Astonished by the Floating Island Whale
White Speak fished a large bottle full of silver-blue paste out of his sleeve. It handed the bottle to Lin Yuan and said, “Lord, when I attacked the smelly fish, I noticed that its scales were extremely smooth. So, I decided to collect some. From now on, when I’m under the sun in my original form, I can spread the scales on my back. It should be very comfortable.”
White Speak presented the bottle like a treasure and added, “Lord, I collected over 30 bottles full of scales. If you like them, I can give them to you.”
Lin Yuan almost exploded.
Given that Silver Umber Black was a Sea Emperor from the First Emperor Cutlass Clan, its scales were definitely expensive high-quality water-type spiritual ingredients.
It was no wonder that Silver Umber Black was in a sorry state since White Speak had collected so many of its scales.
Lin Yuan would be able to understand if White Speak wanted to use the scales to increase its power or give them to White Pavilion.
However, White Speak wanted to use the scales as skincare or give them to Lin Yuan. What use would he have for the scales? Was he supposed to use them as an exfoliant when he showered?
Lin Yuan’s lips twitched, and he returned the bottle to White Speak as he said, “Since you’re so interested in these scales, you should keep them.”
He took out the Jeweled Cave Golden Toad and said, “It seems that you’re on good terms with Silver Umber Black. After taking so many of its scales, you should comfort it. Stay here for a while.”
White Speak was slightly shocked by what Lin Yuan said, but it smiled when it picked up on what he meant.
When Silver Umber Black heard what Lin Yuan said, it suddenly felt that Lin Yuan seemed even more terrifying than White Speak. This petrifying image of Lin Yuan was burned into Silver Umber Black’s mind. It was so terror-stricken that it almost burst into tears.
But when it saw Lin Yuan’s cold expression, it dared not plead for mercy as it was afraid that it would cause him to change his mind and choose an even more barbaric method.
Silver Umber Black cowered in fear as it entered the Jeweled Cave Golden Toad of its own accord.
As for the two sea-king experts, Lin Yuan tossed them to White Speak so that it could teach them a lesson.
The Mother of Bloodbath and Liu Jie grinned when they saw how Lin Yuan treated Silver Umber Black.
Lin Yuan was always gracious and rarely lost his temper. Although this was a virtue, it could also be mistaken for spinelessness.
The way that Lin Yuan talked to Silver Umber Black proved that he had constantly been maturing. He had grown from a bright youth to a dignified young man of the upper echelon.
Lin Yuan had already given Silver Umber Black a chance, but it had ignored his order. Since Silver Umber Black did not know how to appreciate the opportunity it had been given, it deserved to be taught a brutal lesson.
If Lin Yuan gave Silver Umber Black multiple chances, Silver Umber Black would only disregard the rules, cross the line, and eventually lose its loyalty to Lin Yuan.
Only the Mother of Bloodbath, Liu Jie, the Kill Food Sky Butterfly, and Shadow were left on the island. They were all dear to Lin Yuan, and he did not feel the need to hide anything from them.
Thus, he summoned the Island Whale embryo out of the Spirit Lock spatial zone.
Other than Liu Jie, who understood the Island Whales, the Mother of Bloodbath and Kill Food Sky Butterfly were not sea feys and knew very little about the Island Whales. As a dimensional lifeform, Shadow was completely in the dark.
Liu Jie had noticed that the Island Whale embryo that Lin Yuan took out was very different from regular Island Whale embryos.
Usually, the Island Whale embryos were blue. But, the one Lin Yuan took out was a mix of green and blue, and it had both wind- and water-type aura.
This was the first time that Liu Jie had come across such an Island Whale embryo.
Lin Yuan placed his hand on the Floating Island Whale embryo. After Lin Yuan had fed the Floating Island Whale so many times, it had become accustomed to his aura.
The Floating Island Whale within the egg immediately swam over to where Lin Yuan’s hand was placed on the shell. Lin Yuan could also feel the tremors coming from inside the egg.
When Lin Yuan saw the confused expressions of those around him, he said, “When I first established a private faction, I did not decide to name it Sky City by chance. From the beginning, I aimed to build a faction in the sky. This is a mutated Island Whale embryo called the Floating Island Whale. It can swim in the sky just like how the Island Whales swim in the sea.”
Shadow did not think much of what Lin Yuan said as it did not come from the main world. However, Liu Jie, the Mother of Bloodbath, and the Kill Food Sky Butterfly froze.
Naturally, the three of them did not question the truth of what Lin Yuan had said. However, what he had said was just too shocking. An Island Whale that flew in the sky was completely different from one that swam in the sea.
The Island Whale from the sea would not be able to infringe on land, but the Floating Island Whale from the sky could. Hence, they had completely different strategic significances.
By building a camp on the Floating Island Whale’s back, the faction would be able to land on any part of the world and would not have to be constrained by domains.
Liu Jie suddenly realized that he had never truly understood Lin Yuan, much less aimed for the same ambitions. He could not even begin to imagine Lin Yuan’s ambitions.
From the beginning, Lin Yuan had set his sights on not just the Radiance Federation but the entire main world. He had been constantly working hard toward this aspiration.

Now that Liu Jie had become Night Leaning Moon’s disciple, all the resources he used to increase his power came from her.
However, Liu Jie had no doubt that even if he did not have a Master, Lin Yuan would do all he could to provide him with carcinoma feys that the Insect Queen could control.
Liu Jie had always wanted to be the one to shelter Lin Yuan. Yet, from every angle, it was plain to see that Lin Yuan was the one protecting every member of Sky City.
Eventually, Liu Jie did not say anything as there was no need to. In order to catch up to Lin Yuan and become Lin Yuan’s retainer for the rest of his life, all he could do was work harder and harder.
Liu Jie composed himself and pulled up his sleeve as he said, “Lin Yuan, there are hundreds of whale bones. Let’s split up to extract the marrow.”
Lin Yuan took out the Diamond fey storage boxes that the Mother of Bloodbath had given him and summoned all the giant whale bones other than those of the three Island Whales.
He had not thought much of it when he was at the bottom of the ocean. But now that the hundreds or even thousands of meters long giant whale bones were laid out on the island, they took up more than half the space on the island. The sight of the landscape was startling.
