Even for Lin Fan with his pet shop and his cheat system, Platinum Realm beast corpses were still considered rare things. However, he didn't want these corpses at all since they still weren't corpses yet.
Lin Fan had been sure to leave the Charge Bear with a tiny bit of life left when he had "finished" it off since he still had a use for it, rather Brainy still had a use for it.
As for the rest of the Platinum Realm beasts, Lin Fan could communicate with Xiao Huo and Xiao Lei and Angela had her sharp senses which told her that Lin Fan had spared the Charge Bear, so she did the same with her Cyclone Condor since she knew that Lin Fan must have his reasons.
As they left, Brainy had released its seeds into the stronger beasts that were still alive.
After coming into this planar crack, Brainy didn't have much time to create an army yet since it was focused on either tracking certain beasts for Lin Fan, tracking the young geniuses, or keeping up a net for their hidden enemy.
Now that there were a bunch of "volunteers" in front of it, why would it let them go?
These Platinum Realm beasts were a bit weak, but they were still Platinum Realm beasts. They would heal quickly with their physique as beasts since Lin Fan and the rest had held off just enough for them to not actually be seriously injured, even though it looked like they were. The beasts had actually only been knocked out, which made it easier for Brainy's parasites to take control.
Their group quickly made their way back to the camp where the supporters were shocked to see their conditions.
The supporters quickly made their way through the young geniuses, looking over their injuries.
Most of them had finished the battle with minor injuries since Lin Fan's group had distracted most of the more powerful beasts, so while it hadn't been easy on them, it was still easier than it should have been.
But when they came to look over Yan Huo, they were surprised to see how serious his injuries were. Yan Huo not only suffered from internal injuries, he also had several cracked ribs and there were hairline fractures in his arm. It was amazing that he had been able to stay conscious the entire way back.
Yan Huo was immediately carried off by the supporters into a room where they immediately began operating on him.
Of course there were medical staff here, but medicine was a bit different here compared to earth. They still used medical technology and medicine was actually more developed here compared to earth since there was a large demand for it with how much fighting humans had to do to survive against the Beast Clan. However, what they had here was also different from earth since there was the existence of life energy.
Life energy had many different attributes and one of those attributes was healing. There were some cultivators that had the ability to heal with their life energy, but this was considered very rare.
That was why healers were considered an occupation that rivaled that of alchemists, but it was too bad that healing attributed life energy was just too rare.
Still, the Monster Trainer Union had really gone all out this time, even sending a healer along with them into this planar crack just in case.
As for the rest of them, they had their wounds bandaged by the various supporters.
The supporters had also tried to bring Lin Fan into the healing room when they saw the wound on his arm, but Lin Fan rejected them. He just sat down in the center of camp and began cultivating in front of everyone.
Everyone was shocked to find that the wounds on his hand were quickly healing, they were closing at a rate that could be seen by the naked eye.
Soon, the rips that had covered his entire arm like a grid had all closed and there were only minor cuts left.
It was only then that Lin Fan stopped cultivating and stood up.
Lin Fan had an amazing ability to heal himself, which came from the power of his God Tier Cultivation Technique.
The power of his cultivation technique was to refine his body, which was done by using the yang energy gathered by the suns in his dantian to nourish his body. At the same time, the yang energy was also used to assault his body, which made his physique much stronger.
To put it simple, his cultivation technique was an endless cycle of destroying his body and repairing it. So it was as simple as flipping his hand for him to heal his injuries.
Once Lin Fan was done, he immediately gathered everyone to call another meeting.
After all, they had just been ambushed and one of them had been kidnapped. After all of this, they needed to plan out their next moves, but that was easier said than done.
Once everyone was gathered, Lin Fan was the first to say, "Does anyone have any information to go on? Did you find anything when you were looking around earlier?"
Everyone looked at each other before all of them shook their heads.
Yue Jin like usual was the first to speak, "We have no clues at all, so what do we do now?"
Lin Fan knit his brows before saying, "We can go out and search the area again tomorrow, but that would just mean falling into another trap. It was clear today that there's a traitor among us, otherwise they wouldn't have prepared that trap for us."
After giving a pause to let his words sink in, Lin Fan continued, "Before we go out, we have to find the traitor among us, otherwise this will lead to our deaths."
This time after a bit of silence, it was the cloaked person who spoke, "Then do you know who the traitor is or how we can draw them out? If you announce your intentions like this, wouldn't this make it harder for you to smoke them out?"
Lin Fan revealed a strange smile when he heard this, "I already know who the traitors are, I found the final clues today. I'm just giving them a chance to reveal themselves. I will be revealing who they are tomorrow, so they have until then to reveal themselves."
He looked over all of them before saying, "I know that you have your circumstances, so if you reveal yourselves earlier, I will make it easier on you. You should know that betraying the human race for the Beast Race is a serious crime, so you better take advantage of this."
Lin Fan didn't wait for the others to say anything after this, he just stood up and left them sitting there in silence.
The young geniuses all looked at each other before warily standing up and walking away.
Lin Fan's move had been played, the seeds of dissent had been sown among them. Eventually this would result in someone moving, especially the traitor.
The traitor now had to worry about whether Lin Fan was telling the truth or not, so they would have to eventually make a move. The longer this thought stayed in their mind, the more worried they would become. Eventually it would gnaw on their reasoning until they couldn't take it anymore.
Time passed and soon it was time for dinner.
Everyone was still cautious of each other, but they all came to dinner since it was the best way to keep an eye on everyone.
Even Yan Huo who had been injured had recovered enough to come to dinner, but he was a completely different person from before.
Yan Huo came over to where Lin Fan was sitting with two bowls in his hand and said, "Brother Lin, it seems like your words have really shaken them up."
Lin Fan raised a brow when he heard this, but he still took the bowl that Yan Huo offered to him.
Yan Huo sat down beside Lin Fan after handing him the bowl. He didn't begin eating right away and hesitated a bit before saying with a bow, "Brother Lin, I really do have to apologize for my behaviour yesterday. I really don't know what came over me, but I can't apologize enough to you. I realize now just how dangerous this situation is and that we should work together for the greater good of humanity. I hope that we can be friends."
Everyone around looked at Yan Huo in surprise.
They were all people of the same circle, so they had a decent understanding of Yan Huo's personality.
He was a rash person who had an arrogant personality, unless he absolutely had no other choice, he was someone who would never apologize. He was the exact opposite kind of person he was currently acting as.
But they couldn't see anything wrong with him, his words and actions all seemed sincere.
The only explanation they could think of was that Yan Huo finally realized just how dangerous their situation was, so he had no choice but to reflect on his actions and turn over a new leaf. This was made quite evident by how he had placed himself in danger just to save Lin Fan.
Lin Fan looked at him for a bit before saying, "Alright."
Lin Fan's words were a bit cold, but Yan Huo didn't let that bother him. He just said with a friendly smile, "Brother Lin, please have a taste of this soup. I specially made it for us, it's a delicacy that I invented when I was out training."
Lin Fan looked down at the bowl in his hand before raising it in front of Yan Huo and saying, "Why don't you have a taste first?"
