Lin Fan knitted his brows before asking, "You're saying that she's part of the neutral faction as well?"

Momonga gave a nod as he explained, "The spirits are pacifists by nature and unless you invade their territory, there's no reason for them to fight."

Lin Fan knitted his brows even more when he heard this as he said, "That makes even less sense then. If they are attacked at a time like this, wouldn't that just push them to the other side? Who would be foolish enough to do this?"

Momonga didn't answer those questions right away as he said instead, "The humans have been slowly becoming stronger, so much so that they are starting to turn the tides against the demon beasts. If at this time they were to hear a rumour that the neutral factions wanted to make a move, what do you think they would do?"

Lin Fan thought for a bit before suddenly saying in a voice of understanding, "You're saying that the humans wanted to cut off future problems by nipping these problems in the bud? That's why they attacked the neutral faction?"

Momonga gave a shrug, "Take it as a guess, but who knows what they are actually thinking. Of course, there's someone who used to work with those human rulers before…"

At this, both Lin Fan and Momonga turned to look at Lin Fan's Storage Ring.

After a brief period of silence, there was a sigh that came from the Storage Ring before a dragon scale flew out.

When it came out, it took the form of Hong Long and he floated there, looking at the two of them for a while before finally saying, "I haven't been back to the Dragon Race for a long time, so it's not like I know anything. Even if I were to return, what would you want me to say?"

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes to look at him and asked, "Which side do you stand on?"

Hong Long looked back at Lin Fan for a bit before suddenly giving a sigh and saying, "I haven't been back there in such a long time, I have no idea what the current Dragon Race is like. I can't give you an opinion because I don't even have one right now."

Lin Fan looked at him for a bit before saying with a soft snort, "Then you still want to bring Xiao Feng back to that place? I think you're dreaming."

When Hong Long heard this, he started to panic as he said, "You can't do that, that would be the worst thing to do in this situation."

Lin Fan gave another snort as he said, "As if what you say means anything at this point."

Hong Long forced himself to calm down as he said in a serious voice, "If you really want to stop the Dragon Race from working with the humans to attack the neutral faction, it really would be the worst thing to do. After all, with Xiao Feng's bloodline and talent, there is no doubt that he will become the leader of the Dragon Race in the future. When that time comes, wouldn't you be able to have him order the Dragon Race to stop attacking the neutral faction?"

Lin Fan had been about to say something sarcastic, but when he heard what Hong Long said, he couldn't help stopping himself. After all, what Hong Long said made sense.

The best way to stop someone was to have someone higher ranked than them order them to stop, especially when it came to races that respected bloodlines. With Xiao Feng's true dragon bloodline, it wasn't possible that the other dragons wouldn't submit to him to a certain extent. Then it was all about Xiao Feng's strength, he would need strength to subdue the other dragon elders who were strong enough to resist the bloodline suppression.

Lin Fan thought about it for a bit and when he was about to say something, someone cut him off again.

This time it was Momonga who said, "It's not a bad idea, but that will be much further in the future, so there's no point thinking about it now."

Momonga didn't show his full support for the plan since he knew that Lin Fan would be against it, but he had to at least leave that option open since it was a viable plan. At the very least, it would be helpful in the future if Xiao Feng was able to take command of the Dragon Race.

Lin Fan nodded before saying in a worried voice, "That's right, it's far off in the future. Right now we have to think of another way to deal with the attacks. What if they attack again?"

Lin Fan thought of how weak Angela had seemed when she had been laying in bed and he couldn't stop a bit of pain from filling his heart. It was like someone had grabbed it and was currently twisting it.

Momonga shook his head at this and said, "You don't need to worry, it's not like the neutral faction is weak. For now, we've made the humans that attacked us suffer quite a bit, so they won't be trying anything like this for a while since they will need to recover from this attack."

Lin Fan knitted his brows and asked, "How long will that last though?"

Momonga gave a shrug before saying, "Who knows? I don't know how fast those human experts will recover nor do I know how deep the human backing runs. It could be a few months, it could be a few years, but the important thing is that we have time right now."

As soon as his voice fell, the room fell into silence.

Everyone was lost in their own thoughts about what to do next, but there really wasn't anything that they could think of since in the end, both Lin Fan and his pets were too weak to interfere in this matter.

After a few minutes of silence, Hong Long couldn't help giving a sigh as he said, "If it wasn't for the fact that we had to fight the Outers, we wouldn't have worked with the humans in the first place…"

As soon as his voice fell, there was another sigh that came from him.

Lin Fan deeply knitted his brows when he heard this.

Outers…

There was that word again…

Hong Long had mentioned it before, but he had never explained it properly.

Lin Fan couldn't help asking, "You mentioned these "Outers" before, but what are they?"

Hong Long trembled when he heard this and he covered his mouth like he had said something wrong since he had indeed made a mistake. He had made this same mistake last time, but this time was different since the first time was a genuine mistake and this time it was a slip of the tongue.

Hong Long looked over at Momonga who looked right back at him with a bit of sharp glint in his eyes, as if he was blaming him. Then Momonga shook his head without saying a thing, but Hong Long understood what he meant.

Hong Long then said, "It's not something you need to concern yourself with just yet."

Momonga cut in before Lin Fan had a chance to reply by asking, "Did your master never mention the Outers to you before?"

Lin Fan gave a bitter laugh deep down, but he shook his head and said, "No, my master never mentioned this to me before."

How could his master mention this to him?

His master didn't even exist!

Of course, Lin Fan would never tell them that since the main reason why they were willing to work in this shop was because of this supposed master behind him. Who knew what would happen if they learned that there wasn't a master?

Momonga didn't say anything in response to this at first. With the expression on his face, it was like he was considering something.

After a while, Momonga suddenly asked, "Speaking of this, is your master planning on making a move? As long as the expert makes a move, I'm sure that he can solve everything as long as he makes a move."

Make a move?

How could someone that doesn't exist make a move?

But once again, Lin Fan kept that inside of himself as he said, "It's not convenient for my master to do anything right now."

Momonga fell into deep thought again.

Was the expert still injured?

If he was, why would he have allowed Lin Fan to bring the store up to this upper realm? Wouldn't that just make it easier for others to discover him?

But if the expert wasn't injured, just what reason did he have to not make a move…

Could it be that the expert had a big plan that was going on that involved the entire universe? Was that why he didn't make a move?

As all these thoughts were going through Momonga's mind trying to figure out what that "expert" was thinking, Lin Fan was sweating on the inside as he tried to figure out if he had been exposed or not.

Finally after a long period of silence, Momonga broke it by saying, "For now, there's nothing else you need to know since your cultivation isn't high enough to do anything about it. The most important thing you have to do now is get stronger. Once you're strong enough, naturally you'll be able to involve yourself in this matter."

Lin Fan had a complicated look for a bit before giving a nod.
