Riding the horse and waving the whip, Ling Yi galloped along the newly repaired official road of the principality, the scenery on both sides quickly receding. Ling Yi's mood couldn't help but become exhilarated.

Sometimes, no matter how firmly one's mind is cultivated, the neural stimulation from the hormones secreted by the body is an inherent characteristic of the human species.

So-called liberation of one's nature often leads to actions that conform to the impulses caused by hormones on the body.

At this moment, Ling Yi didn't suppress his nature. He waved his hand at Ye Luo and Le Qing, who were driving the carriage behind him, and shouted loudly, "Brother Ye, Brother Le, Ling Yi will go ahead. We'll meet again in 'Wood Plant City'—!"

Hearing this, Ye Luo and Le Qing hadn't even reacted when Ling Yi spoke again.

"Ah Feng! Ah Xin! Ah Yin!"

Three consecutive calls, and Zhang Mufeng, Qingqiu Xin, and Long Yin all responded loudly, "Brother Yi—!" *3

Ling Yi laughed heartily, "Let's go—!"

"Yes—!" "Coming! Brother Yi—!" "Alright—!"

Seeing Ling Yi take the lead on his horse, followed by the three young men, Ye Luo and Le Qing, who were driving the carriage and riding alongside, looked at each other in surprise.

"This… this is it—?" Ye Luo felt his liver tremble inside his recently stitched abdomen.

Le Qing nodded blankly, "Yeah, they're gone~"

"No~" Ye Luo mechanically turned his head, looking at his younger brother, and asked again in a daze, "He… they… Brother Ling and the others, they're just leaving like this?"

After asking, he even raised his finger to point behind him.

In the carriage behind him, two large boxes of Soul Beast Materials were placed. Although he didn't know exactly what the materials were, just the fact that they came from soul beasts made them incredibly valuable!

On the other carriage, there was a box of Soul Conductors and several Thousand-Forged Level weapons.

Ye Luo, who didn't know the exact condition of those Soul Conductors, knew that just those few Thousand-Forged weapons could be worth nearly half a year's income for their small team!

As for the last carriage, it contained large pots of "Blue Silver Grass" planted in square wooden troughs, which Ye Luo didn't pay much attention to.

Although these "Blue Silver Grass" plants were much larger than ordinary ones and had a faint purple hue, making them look quite beautiful, they were still just "Blue Silver Grass."

In the hearts of Ye Luo and Le Qing's team of about ten people, Ling Yi was directly entrusting them with wealth equivalent to several times their team's total assets, just like that, lightly and casually?

For a moment, they couldn't tell whether Ling Yi was too carefree or trusted them too much.

Wasn't Ling Xiaoge afraid they would run off with the goods?

How did that saying go?

Don't easily test human nature; in the face of absolute benefits, human nature often fails the test.

That saying was right, but also wrong.

It was right because human nature is changeable and can indeed deteriorate due to various external factors.

It was wrong because it underestimated something deeply rooted in the human species.

That something is called belief!

In this world, some people seek wealth, some seek power, some seek fame, and some seek inner fulfillment!

Of course, the above things had little to do with Ling Yi entrusting Ye Luo and Le Qing's team with goods worth tens of thousands of gold soul coins.

As Ye Luo and Le Qing looked at each other in silence, a conversation suddenly broke out among their team members behind them.

Someone, looking at the four figures of Ling Yi and the others leaving gracefully, said enviously, "How nice, only someone like Mr. Ling can be so carefree and unrestrained—"

"That's right!" someone replied, "Who is Mr. Ling? Not only is he a Two-Ring Great Soul Master at a young age, but he is also the vice president of the principality's [Blacksmith Association], and all the blacksmiths in the principality have to listen to him!"

"Not just that!" another person added, "I heard that Mr. Ling has connections in the principality's Five Directions Military Departments and can enter and exit the Distant Mountain Camp as easily as his own home!"

"I have no hope, but I hope my three children will have a good Innate Soul Power Potential at their Soul Power Awakening Ceremony in a few years and can be as successful as Mr. Ling in the future—" someone sighed.

Hearing this teammate's words, someone else nodded in agreement, paused, and then asked the person next to him, "Old Sa, do you think we should learn forging?"

Old Sa was taken aback and asked in return, "Forging? What do you mean?"

"I know~ I know~" the first speaker interjected. When several pairs of eyes turned to him, he wore a proud expression and said, "Mr. Ling, besides being a great healer who has saved countless lives, he became the vice president of the principality's [Blacksmith Association] because he is a blacksmith himself!"

Hearing this, someone immediately scoffed, "So what? We all know that!"

The person being mocked wasn't upset, just shook his head and asked, "Do you know that Mr. Ling was granted the title of Baron because he became a blacksmith, and at that time, he was still a One-Ring Soul Master like us?"

Saying this, he looked around at his teammates who were listening quietly and continued, "Mr. Ling was the only one, apart from those with hereditary titles, who could become a Baron based on his soul master abilities!"

"I've made up my mind!" someone suddenly said, his tone serious and determined, "When we get to 'Wood Plant City,' I will ask Mr. Ling to recommend me to the [Blacksmith Association] to learn forging!"

"A Hua, are you serious?" Old Sa, moved by this, asked.

"Of course!" A Hua nodded firmly and said, "I'm thirty-three years old and only at the fourteenth level of soul power. There's no hope of reaching the twentieth level. I might as well learn something else early…

In the future, we'll see what our children want. Whether they continue on the path of soul masters or turn to blacksmithing like me, it's all a way to live—"

Hearing this, whether it was the two brothers Ye Luo and Le Qing in front or the other team members, they all fell silent.

Their small team of about ten people, apart from the twenty-something Ye Luo and Le Qing who hadn't settled down, included others in their twenties and thirties, and even Old Sa, who was in his early forties, all of whom had families.

Thinking back to a suggestion Ling Yi had made earlier, Ye Luo and Le Qing exchanged a glance, and the wavering balance in their hearts began to tilt.

...

Ling Yi, who had already galloped several miles away, didn't know about this conversation, but he had some guesses in his heart.

They were all low-level soul masters with families, and their personalities weren't the type to risk everything. Under the weight of many concerns, they wouldn't dare to steal the goods and run out of the [Waterwood Principality], where they would be caught.

Even before running away, the small team of about ten people might have internal disputes.

After all, even the unmarried Ye Luo and Le Qing brothers had parents, siblings, and other relatives back home.
