Fire Clan and Whale Rubber

Raising his hand, Book Elder pushed the Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone back. His tone grew somewhat wistful:

"No need. It's enough that you have such filial intentions. When I was young, I absorbed a Thousand-Year Soul Bone into my right leg to advance my cultivation. I have no fortune to enjoy this Forty-Thousand-Year Soul Bone.

I had originally planned to save this Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone for little Wushuang or Xiao Wu.

But you little rascal have better talent than the two of them. You're the most suitable one to use this Soul Bone, so it's ended up benefiting you, kid."

Lin Huo withdrew his hand and placed the Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone into the Quenched Copper Three-Jade Plaque. Then he said cheerfully:

"Then this junior's luck is truly good, catching such a fine opportunity. But don't worry, Book Elder. Since this Soul Bone has been given to me, I guarantee our Fire Clan won't lose out."

Lin Huo was not boasting. The information on Whale Rubber alone was worth far more than a Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone.

And now, with Book Elder, the pillar of the Fire Clan, right before him, it was the perfect time to reveal that Whale Rubber could improve one's physical constitution.

"Book Elder, there's something I'd like to confirm."

"What is it now?"

Book Elder, who had turned to leave, was stopped by Lin Huo for the third time. Thinking he had forgotten something again, he began to doubt himself.

He might have been getting on in years, but his memory was not so bad that he had dementia, was it?

After glancing around, Lin Huo cautiously asked Book Elder, "There shouldn't be any other ears around, right? This junior has an earth-shattering secret to tell you."

Another secret?!
