Merging with Demon Spirits

Chapter 81: Chapter 73: Sea Dragoness Demon Spirit

”Brother Feng, are we just going to tell Yun Kai like this?” The question was full of doubts in Gao Hai’s mind on the way back.

Such an important piece of information, just given to Yun Kai for free?

If this news were sold to the Yun Race, it probably wouldn’t be a small sum.

And wasn’t their goal to have Yun Kai join the Jianghu Martial Arts Club?

Why didn’t Lin Feng mention it at all?

”Brother Feng, are you trying to move Yun Kai so that he joins willingly?” Yang Fan speculated.

A peerless genius with Ancestral Demonization, his future achievements, as Lin Feng put it, would rival Ye Qiu.

And Ye Qiu was a super talent who entered the Glory Rookie Chart at 19th place in high school; if Yun Kai can rival him, he too could be an All-Star player in the Glory Alliance.

When Lin Feng and Yun Kai truly mature, the Jianghu Martial Arts Club would undoubtedly be the envy of all.

Talents like these are as rare as Earth Chart demon spirits. Yang Fan didn’t believe Lin Feng would give up so easily.

Facing the doubts of Gao Hai and Yang Fan, Lin Feng smiled: ”Yang Fan, you’re smart, but I have to tell you, emotions are one of the most worthless things in the world. Like promises, they have no binding power. Remember this, or one day you’ll suffer greatly.”

”If we want Yun Kai to join the Martial Arts Club, I have other ways. It’s just not necessary!”

”I just pity him. Yun Kai has been despised by everyone since he was young. To him, living is worse than death. As for joining the Martial Arts Club, if he’s willing, he’ll join. We’re not using it as a condition for coercion.”

Yang Fan nodded with some realization.

In these days, Lin Feng’s actions showed him that everything he said was gradually coming true. Subtly, Yang Fan began to believe in Lin Feng’s words.

Yang Fan looked at Lin Feng, who had a calm expression, and felt admiration.

A good leader must not only have talent and strength but also the charisma to gain loyalty from subordinates. Undoubtedly, Lin Feng has begun to demonstrate this charisma, giving Yang Fan a stronger sense of belonging to the Jianghu Martial Arts Club.

”Brother Feng, wait for me!”

As Lin Feng and his companions chatted casually, a rough call came from behind.

Lin Feng and the others turned around to see a tall figure like a bamboo pole, about 1.9 meters, jogging towards them from a distance.

”Hehe!”

Seeing Yun Kai’s figure, Lin Feng’s lips curled into a faint smile.

He wasn’t smiling at Yun Kai calling him Brother Feng, but at how Yun Kai, who used to walk with his head down and his body hunched, now stood straight like a sharp spear, with a confident and determined look in his eyes, without a trace of the previous inferiority and hesitation.

Saving and transforming someone’s life brings him great joy.

”Yun Kai, you’ve changed a lot!” Gao Hai raised his hand, patting Yun Kai on the shoulder with a friendly smile.

”Indeed, almost didn’t recognize you, you’re really tall now!”

Yang Fan looked up slightly, almost admiringly said.

Yang Fan and Gao Hai had just surpassed 1.7 meters in height. Even Lin Feng, at 1.75 meters, was a head shorter compared to Yun Kai.

”Really?” Yun Kai scratched his head, offering an awkward, silly smile.

”Brother Feng, can I be your brother?” Yun Kai looked at Lin Feng with anticipation and asked.

He longed for friends, for brothers.

”Yun Kai, we’ve only just met, haven’t shared joys and hardships together, calling each other brothers would be insincere. So far, I only have Gao Hai as a brother. We grew up together, and I can trust him with my back. Since you’re calling me Brother Feng, then I’ll consider you a friend. If anyone bullies you, just tell me!” Lin Feng looked at Yun Kai and said.

Yun Kai also nodded solemnly. Even though Lin Feng refused him, he was not discouraged, but rather happy.

Lin Feng’s words were realistic and direct, but because of this, Yun Kai felt Lin Feng was genuine.

Undoubtedly, as his talent awakens and people learn about Ancestral Demonization, those who used to hate and ridicule him will compete to become his brothers, but they’ll only want to curry favor with him.

To Yun Kai, Lin Feng wasn’t just the first friend to show him kindness but also someone who helped change his tragic fate. Yun Kai hopes one day to become Lin Feng’s true brother, like Gao Hai.

Yang Fan shared the same thought, while Gao Hai’s eyes were slightly red with emotion.

Unlike the clever Yang Fan, who had his own press club and many subordinates to help Lin Feng handle things, and different from Yun Kai, who would become a powerful Demon Spirit Master and a pillar of the Martial Arts Club, Gao Hai didn’t have talent or much to offer Lin Feng, but he secretly vowed in his heart that he would never betray Lin Feng’s trust.

”Hey, isn’t that the half-beastman Yun Kai? How come he’s with Lin Feng?”

”He’s really got good fortune. By Lin Feng’s side, no one would dare bully him now.”

”Don’t you think the people around Lin Feng are a bit odd? A plump guy with average talent, a gossip-loving fellow, and a scary-looking half-beastman. They’re all eccentrics.”

On the way to recruit the next Martial Arts Club member, many secretly looked at Lin Feng’s group, whispering in curiosity.

They were surprised and puzzled at Yun Kai joining Lin Feng’s team.

The most shocking was Yun Kai’s change.

If it weren’t for his peculiar appearance and height, they wouldn’t have recognized him.

When did half-beastmen dare to hold their heads high and become this confident?

”Gao Hai, where are we going?”

Perhaps because Gao Hai appeared more honest and sincere compared to Yang Fan, Yun Kai felt more at ease with him, curiously asking questions along the way.

”Originally, we sought you out to have you join our Martial Arts Club. But Brother Feng said he didn’t want you to feel like we were threatening you with such terms, so he didn’t tell you.”

Gao Hai explained to Yun Kai about Lin Feng establishing the Jianghu Martial Arts Club and preparing to recruit members. Yun Kai felt touched and decided to join the Martial Arts Club with no hesitation. Thus, the fourth core member of the Jianghu Martial Arts Club emerged.

Half an hour later, Lin Feng’s group of four found was the second prospective core member at the playground.

A high school girl named Dong Yunan.

Dong Yunan, female, sixteen, with a somewhat cute, simple demeanor.

As the daughter of Dong Xiuxian, one of the three vice-chairmen of the Jiang City Demon Spirit Master Association, her strength wasn’t very strong, only possessing the power of a Body Cultivator at the seventh rank. However, what she refined was the Eighth Grade Sea Dragoness, a scarce Water Series Therapist demon spirit.

Like Summoners and Demon Controllers, Therapists are a Legendary Profession, but without a doubt, the status of Therapists far exceeds other legendary professions.

In the world of Martial Artists, battles and injuries are common; thus, Therapists for Martial Artists are akin to a second life.

A squad having a Therapist is absolutely something other squads would envy and resent.

In the Otherworld or the wild, if there isn’t a large discrepancy in power between squads, no one would dare make a move against a squad with a Therapist.

The presence of a Therapist is like a Stabilizing Needle, allowing all team members to fight without worries.

To become a Therapist, one must refine a healing-type demon spirit.

Healing-type demon spirits are incredibly rare and precious, as are those with the talent to be Therapists. Thus, among a thousand Demon Spirit Masters, you might not find even one Therapist, let alone an Eighth Grade Sea Dragoness.

Dong Yunan’s ability to refine the Sea Dragoness was not only due to her talent as a Therapist but also because she had a good father.

As a vice-chairman of the Demon Spirit Master Association, Dong Xiuxian’s financial and influential power was undeniable.

But even so, the value of an Eighth Grade Sea Dragoness demon spirit is more precious than many Ninth Grade demon spirits, comparable to some of the lesser-ranked Earth Chart demon spirits. For his daughter’s demon spirit, Dong Xiuxian likely exhausted his wealth.

Regardless of the Therapist’s personal strength or background, Dong Yunan’s addition is highly beneficial to the Jianghu Martial Arts Club.

”Your own Martial Arts Club? Inviting me to join, I’m willing, of course, I’m willing. How interesting!”

To Yang Fan’s surprise, upon learning of their purpose, Dong Yunan was excited, choosing to join without hesitation or conditions, almost joyfully.

From the looks of it, even if there were a membership fee, she wouldn’t refuse.

This left Yang Fan, who prepared a lot of things to say, baffled, until he noticed Dong Yunan occasionally looking at Lin Feng with a shy expression while talking to him, he then understood.

Yang Fan touched his small face, then glanced at Lin Feng, sighing internally: ”Being handsome indeed has its perks!”
