Lin Ziang paid no attention to their playful banter.
Because the Moon Goddesses had already made their move again, another third of the Flame Dragons were killed.
The remaining Flame Dragons were terrified and retreated.
"Impossible, this is impossible! Even a real dragon shouldn't be this strong!" Lin Ziang's face was filled with disbelief, and his long-held strong belief seemed to have suddenly collapsed.
Seeing that Yue'e was preparing to make her third move, if this round of moon blades were to strike again, his Flame Dragon would probably be completely wiped out.
"Stop!" Lin Ziang shouted, fearing that his last bit of wealth would be completely destroyed here.
Upon hearing his shout, Ye Xi and the others paused and turned to look at Ye Chen behind them.
"Take them down first!" Ye Chen said after thinking for a moment. Ye Xi and the others nodded, and each of them took control of a Flame Dragon and detained it in the fat man's territory.
These fiery dragons were terrified by the two rounds of sharp blades they had just received. Now, without anyone watching them, they lay on the ground trembling, showing no intention of running away.
"Release them, and I will let this matter slide!" Lin Zi'ang said through gritted teeth as he saw his Flame Dragon being detained.
He never imagined that he would be defeated by two poor people he looked down on, and by such an overwhelming and utter defeat.
"Oh, what a big mouth you've got! You think you can let bygones be bygones? Come here, let's have a good chat!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen and the fat man burst out laughing, and even Ye Xi and the others in front couldn't help but smile.
"You...you guys are going too far. This is my fault. Release my Flaming Dragon, and we can meet again in the future!" Lin Ziang said, his face flushed, but he already harbored resentment towards the two of them.
"It's your fault? Who calculated it? You or me? Were you originally planning to say it was our fault?" Ye Chen sneered. Even at a time like this, he still wanted to put on airs as a scion of a noble family?
Lin Ziang glanced at his subdued Flame Dragons, took a deep breath, and apologized again, "I'm sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn't have had those inappropriate thoughts about you!"
"A true man can bend and stretch, no wonder you're from a prestigious family! If it were me, I'd definitely fight to the bitter end!" the fat man teased with a loud laugh. Ye Chen simply rolled his eyes at this. "That's why you always end up losing everything!"
In the adult world, there are not so many impulsive actions, only trade-offs between interests.
If you don't want to become that kind of person, the only way is to keep becoming stronger so that you no longer have to make choices and can loudly proclaim, "I want it all!"
Ye Chen thought with a touch of melancholy, but his gaze turned to Lin Zi'ang.
"Pay reparations or cede territory? Choose one."
"You!" Lin Ziang glared angrily, but was powerless to refute, as he could already hear the painful groans of the Flame Dragons.
"What do you want?" Taking another deep breath, Lin Ziang tried to calm his tone.
"As for compensation, it's one Flame Dragon and one special item. As for ceding territory, these six Flame Dragons are mine, and your territory is mine too!"
"Impossible, where would I get so many special items?" Lin Ziang immediately refused. If he agreed, the price he would have to pay would be too high.
"Hmm, you're right. After all, you're so dark-skinned, and your brain doesn't seem to be working too well, does it?" Ye Chen thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll give you a 50% discount. Two Flame Dragon corpses in exchange for a special item!"
"Impossible! At worst, I'll just give up these Flame Dragons, go back and recruit new ones, and we can still develop!" Lin Ziang said angrily. He wanted to exchange six Flame Dragon hatchlings for three of his special items, which was undoubtedly an outrageous demand.
Upon hearing this, the imprisoned Flame Dragons let out low growls, their eyes revealing a hint of anger and sorrow.
They never imagined that in the eyes of their lord, their lives were less important than some inanimate objects.
This wasn't a death on the battlefield, but rather a genuine abandonment by his own lord.
Although the family members are born through a nest, they have their own independent life and consciousness from the day they are born. They are all complete individuals, vibrant lives.
Even Lin Ziang and Fatty were quite surprised to hear this. They hadn't even put any pressure on them yet, and the other party had already given up on their clan.
"You beasts! These are precious lives, and you just give up on them like that?" the fat man exclaimed.
Despite the numerous goblin casualties he suffers in each battle, it's because the goblins are too weak. Without risking their lives, he can't protect his territory, let alone the remaining goblins.
When the lair is breached, his entire goblin race will be completely wiped out.
In reality, he treated these goblins very well, at least they never truly lacked food or clothing. His seemingly casual beatings and scoldings were merely to strengthen his control over the goblins.
If it were an elf or a fiery dragon, he would definitely be much better than a typical lord.
"Hmph! As long as the nest is still there, the Flame Dragon can have as many as it wants. Three special items are absolutely impossible!" Lin Zi'ang said disdainfully. In his view, the Familia was nothing more than a tool to become a lord. If a stronger Familia appeared, he would not mind exchanging it for the Flame Dragon.
Upon hearing this, the several Flame Dragons fell silent, lying listlessly on the ground without making a sound.
If Lin Ziang were to check the loyalty of the Flame Dragons at this time, he would find that the loyalty of all six Flame Dragons had dropped below the passing grade of 60 points, which meant they were at risk of defecting.
