After exchanging beast mates, those crazy S-rank beasts are all vying to be my pets.

Chapter 159: Two at most

"Yes, there are seven types of crystal cores, distinguished by their red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple colors. Each type has a different function. For example, the black crystal core that Lu Mian gave you last time is for absorption. It can absorb the spiritual power of ten A-level alien beasts at once, and even more if it is a B-level beast."

The female master can only absorb the spiritual power of beasts of the same level, while the beastmen are not restricted by level. In all calculations, the black crystal core is the most useful for the beastmen.

As for the repair green crystal core that Rat Lord has been searching for, it is the most precious of all crystal cores, and only A-level orcs in the desert possess it.

"By the way, do you want to find a blue crystal core that can release arrows with lightning attributes?"

Speaking of crystal cores, Qingzhi thought of how new crystal cores could be installed on Sang Tian's Flame Bow.

Sang Tian would definitely be happy to have one more element.

"Sure, are we going to Raiden Island?"

Qingzhi nodded. "Yes, and only A-level or higher beasts have crystal cores; only strong beasts can have them."

"The only difficulty is that we cannot determine the strength of an A-level alien beast."

Bai Mingchen looked up and added, clearly aware of this as well.

Sang Tian frowned, a person coming to mind, "What about the strange beasts? Perhaps they can tell the difference?"

"You mean Lu Mian?" Bai Mingchen guessed the answer in the next second.

Sang Tian blinked. "I'll ask him when he gets back."

After Lu Mian followed Tang Xiaoyan to the zombie island, everyone realized a truth: the bond between Lu Mian and the strange beasts of the Floating Life Islands was a kind of bug.

Because these strange beasts can follow other females into the zombie island, they are an extraordinary existence, like unregistered residents, yet not entirely unregistered.

Bai Mingchen and the others all hoped that Lu Mian would never return.

knock knock --

The knocking interrupted their conversation.

After being given permission, the people outside entered the room. Cang Lan poked her head in and said, "Goddess, some of the people you asked me to recruit last time asked me when they can come for an interview?"

Sang Tian forgot that she hadn't told Cang Lan about this yet.

"There's no rush. We'll discuss this after Xiaoyan comes back. Everything will be ready after the project is completed."

Cang Lan nodded and added, "By the way, He Zi is waiting for you downstairs. She came to our store earlier to ask about you, but we told her you weren't there. She's been waiting for almost an hour now. I could tell from her expression that she's determined to get what she wants."

"Okay, I understand. Thank you for telling me."

Sang Tian was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect He Zi to come to the black market to find her. It couldn't be that He Zi came to beg for mercy. He Zi would never do such a thing.

Given the relationship between the two, she is now in a superior position and has no need to avoid He Zi.

"I'll go down with you."

Canglan's eyes lit up, as if they were sparkling, and she nodded like a chick pecking at rice, "Okay, okay."

As they descended, Sang Tian reminded Cang Lan.

"From now on, just call me Sang Tian like Xiao Yan does. It feels awkward to call me 'goddess'."

If she hadn't been the only woman in the office, I would have thought she was calling someone else.

"Okay, if you don't like me calling you that, I'll call you Sang Tian from now on."

"But did you really give up your other beast husbands for Quan Jingtian?"

Speaking of this, Cang Lan was very proud. "Of course, my previous beast husband was nothing like him. He can grow flowers and plants very well, and he even collected many precious herbs. He knows a lot about plants, so he's like a botanical encyclopedia. Don't you think that's amazing?"

Sang Tian understood after hearing Cang Lan's words; she truly felt it was worthwhile and genuinely loved Quan Jingtian.

Sang Tian learned this from Cang Lan. As a female with pharmaceutical-related superpowers, Cang Lan's greatest love in life was tending to flowers and plants.

She had heard that the black market had everything, so she came to the black market in search of a flower. She stumbled into Quan Jingtian's shop by chance and unexpectedly discovered a new world. In Quan Jingtian's shop, there were not only flowers and plants, but also fresh soil.

She was immediately captivated by him and visited him every day for the next two weeks, during which time she kept hinting that Quan Jingtian should be her beast husband, but he always managed to brush her off.

Unable to tolerate this kind of life due to her straightforward nature, she began to pursue Inu Jingtian aggressively.

After being rejected for the eighteenth time, Canglan finally understood why the other person was rejecting him.

After the qualifying rounds, she made an excuse to send all the beastmen away and returned to the black market.

When Quan Jingtian learned that Canglan had disbanded the Beastman Troupe for him, he was initially surprised, but he was eventually won over by Canglan's persistence.

Canglan and Quan Jingtian now spend most of their time in the black market.

"You guys only talk about flowers and plants every day?"

Canglan gave a heavy "hmm," and said, "Don't you think it's a wonderful thing to chat about shared interests with someone you like late at night?"

"The person I like won't let me utter a complete sentence late at night."

Cang Lan didn't understand at first, but it took him a beat to realize what Sang Tian meant. His face turned red at a visible speed, and he started to stammer.

"Can't you guys do something else?"

Seeing how innocent Canglan was, Sang Tian decided to tease her and spoke even more boldly.

"Sure, I sometimes do it with other people too."

Canglan was so frightened that her eyes widened, and she couldn't utter a word for a long time, her eyes filled with shock.

Canglan didn't speak again until they got downstairs, worried that he might hear some more inappropriate words from Sang Tian.

Finally, when Sang Tian was about to go find He Zi, Cang Lan stopped her, "Um... having too many people around can be bad for your health, so let's try to avoid it in the future. If it really doesn't work, I can get you some medicine?"

puff-

Sang Tian couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Don't worry, including me, there will be no more than two people."

"..." Cang Lan's mind hadn't quite caught up yet, and he subconsciously thought of two orcs, still feeling incredibly shocked.

After Sang Tian left, she recalled what Sang Tian had said. Including her, there were at most two people, so it was still 1v1, right?
Canglan stood there, feeling both ashamed and annoyed.

Sang Tian found He Zi and took the initiative to speak, "Did you need something from me?"

"I have something to ask you."

He Zi's tone of voice changed from her usual arrogance, and she spoke much more gently.

"what?"

"What did you take Shen Jinxi with you to do the night before?"

Sang Tian's tone was cold, her eyes distant as she looked at the person, "It has nothing to do with you. Shouldn't you be worried that I'll report you and Shen Jinxi to Xing Duan?"

"really."

At first, He Zi didn't dare to completely believe what the beast husband said, so she came today specifically to get information out of Sang Tian.

He Zi suddenly said that she had indeed stumped Sang Tian. Sang Tian stared at He Zi quietly, not understanding what the other party was up to.

"Shen Jinxi has erased my memories once again."

When He Zi met Sang Tian's gaze, she frankly told Sang Tian that she didn't care at all about what others thought.
