Chapter 616: 298 Luminous Snake Reception Group!_3
After the baby Luminous Snake grows up, it is not expected to repay them, and they will allow it to live independently.
At this moment, a hissing sound rang out.
The tallest Luminous Snake, having swallowed a sliver of moonlight, spoke with gravity,
“Listen up, all four of you. No one is allowed to mess with our trading partners during this deal!”
“If I find anyone daring to, I will personally hand them over to the leader for a 100-year stint in the stone caves!”
Two of the Luminous Snakes obediently nodded and verbally agreed.
“Elder, you’re our leader. We’ll follow your orders!”
The other two Luminous Snakes, though also heard the Elder’s words, couldn’t help but grumble under their breaths.
“We’re trading with people from the Twelve Pavilion this time. Even if we tried to rob them, we might not be able to defeat them!”
“We’re not going to cause trouble for ourselves!”
“Even when we plan to rob, we only choose those who are 100% sure to be weaker than us!”
These two Luminous Snakes hadn’t finished their grumbling when the Elder, enraged, smacked his tail on their heads.
“You two sons of bitches, what do you mean by choosing to rob only those who are weaker than us?!”
“Our Luminous Snake Clan’s reputation is being damaged by snakes like you!”
“The clan’s leader has already spoken. We must change the image that humans have of our Luminous Snake Clan.”
“Otherwise, neither of you can even dream of having offspring in your lifetimes!”
The two Luminous Snakes that were disciplined felt quite aggrieved.
It seems like it was just last week that you, Elder, led us in a grand heist!
The reason those two weren’t punished was simply that they were greenhorns.
Anyone who’s been around the Elder for some time would never act this way!
And besides, you, Elder, are technically calling yourself a turtle since we’re all Luminous Snakes!
Speaking of which, turtle eggs are rather tasty but could only be eaten sparingly.
Otherwise, we’d end up feuding with the turtle and tortoise Beast Taming Tribes.
Although the two snakes felt aggrieved, the thought of their offsprings’ survival made them slightly more obedient.
Still, there was some resentment deep down!
Besides, even if we did steal, as long as we clean up afterwards, it wouldn’t affect the Luminous Snake Clan.
Many Beast Taming Tribes have chosen to turn on humans after trading, it’s just that our Luminous Snake Clan has a bad reputation and often ends up shouldering the blame.
Otherwise, why would so many human forces despise us?!
As long as there are Master Creators involved, our Luminous Snake Clan would exhaust all resources to maintain those relationships!
“Elder, we got it!”
“Don’t worry, we’ll behave especially friendly to ensure that the people from the Twelve Pavilion perceive us a friendly and cooperative Beast Controlling Force!”
The Elder of the Lustrous Snake, content upon hearing their response, resumed his focus on the moon, extending his inky black tongue.
At this point, the snake that just nodded suddenly asked,
“Elder, the people from the Twelve Pavilion only said they wanted to trade for the Undead Species beasts we have.”
“Even if we have one top-quality and two high-quality Undead Species beast, it would not fetch many Light Attribute Potions from humans!”
“Any idea why the human forces are doing this?! Why are Light Attribute Potions so much more expensive than potions of other attributes?!”
These two young Luminous Snakes have just been promoted within the clan.
Previously, they didn’t have much experience interacting with human forces or participating in trade with them.
Their whole heart cared about the clan’s development and worried that this trade would not yield many useful items.
The declining birth rate of the Luminous Snake Clan had them teetering on the brink of extinction!
For this reason, the Luminous Snake Clan desperately needed to reform its image in the eyes of humans.
The Elder, hearing this, smugly flicked his tail.
“You two may not know this, but humans don’t necessarily need to trade for specific things.”
“I’ve brought many things from the clan that humans like.”
“Just see how I sell these items to humans!”
“All four of you need to learn. One day, you’ll carry the flag for our Luminous Snake Clan!”
The four Luminous Snakes were silenced by the Elder’s words and diverted their focus elsewhere.
The Elder’s words sounded profound, but were essentially self-congratulatory bravado.
The two young Luminous Snakes just thought the Elder was too narcissistic, while the two familiar with trading knew the truth.
Their dealings with human forces had always been beneficial to humans.
The humans would do everything possible to lower prices during the trade.
A spirit material that could be traded for two bottles of Light Attribute Potion in the human world could only fetch one in this transaction.
Originally, the Luminous Snake Clan would target humans after a trade as a simple outlet for their frustration.
However, they later realized that in doing so, they could get more stuff, thus they started purposefully exploiting human forces!
The question remains how much the Luminous Snake Clan will lose from this trade.
But even if the losses are massive, they have no choice. The clan must overcome the challenge of population decline.
The leader of the Luminous Snake Clan has made progress, but when it comes to producing offspring, he is utterly useless!
Just then, the Elder of the Lustrous Snake saw something in the distance, flicked his tongue, and said,
“The people from the Twelve Pavilion are here. Prepare yourselves!”
Upon turning to the four Luminous Snakes, he burst into a fierce rage, shouting angrily,
“All of you, withdraw your tongues! Who are you trying to scare with your savage looks?!”
