《Rise of the White Dragon 》Chapter 210: Tifa
Advertisement
A few days have passed and now it was April 12, 2010.
The 'foreign' people of intelligent species, be they giants or other races in smaller numbers, were being accommodated by the government of each country.
"Ryu, have you managed to control your strength with the technique I gave you?" Floating on a cloud, Luan, in all his splendor, wearing a gray jacket and pants and black sneakers, was like an ant in front of the giant Ryu.
Ryu wasn't surprised that Luan had shown up so suddenly. In the past few days, Luan had come to visit him and the other giants and they got along really well.
"Guhaha. Yes, little friend Luan, now I can fight without fear of affecting my allies!" Ryu's voice echoed loudly.
Luan had already prepared himself and blocked the sound with his Qi.
Ryu didn't thank him for it; thanking was like speaking with a stranger. Now that means he treats Luan like a friend.
"Good." Luan smiled.
Then a female giant approached with a huge basin. "Little friend Luan, look. Is that what you wanted?" Inside the bowl were many rare herbs and plants.
"Yes, Athena," Luan nodded.
"That is great! Okay, no ceremony. We giants have agreed to give this to you for free." The giant Athena smiled.
"Is that so? You are very kind." Luan took it and put it in his storage ring.

After that, Luan started visiting the nymphs. Unlike the giants, the nymphs were still somewhat afraid of Luan, but that didn't stop them from trading with him. Mainly, they traded for the pills he made, as they were very useful for them.
When he arrived in the 'realm' of the nymphs, two people suddenly appeared and blocked his path. He took a look and immediately saw that it was a pair of nymphs that were blocking his path. One of them looked cute and adorable, measuring 166 cm tall. With all her clothes being precious and old, she had a very regal air about her. It was clear she held a position of high standing.

Luan recognized this nymph. Her name was Tifa, Leader of the Nymphs. She was really a beauty with a high attitude, not taking much time to even glance at most people.
As for the other nymph, she had a cool, elegant kind of absolute beauty. Her clothes consisted of a black silk dress with a big bust. She flew with a pair of rainbow wings, had slender legs, and a pair of shoes that matched her dress.
Luan recognized her too. She was Tifa's right hand, Luise, who enjoyed great popularity among nymphs and now throughout Brazil as well.
Luan's face was very calm. Unlike the other nymphs, Tifa, the leader of the nymphs, was not afraid of Luan. She smiled graciously at Luan and said, "What good winds bring you, Mr. Luan?"
With the same indifferent expression as always, Luan said, "I created new pills that will be of benefit to your race. They help you collect twice as fast for 5 hours. Are you interested?"
"Of course, yes!" she smiled, "Tell me, what exactly are you interested in?"
A sound like a drive installing resounded. In front of her eyes a hologram appeared, but the hologram image there was a tree the nymph leader knew very well. This tree produced fruits that were very popular and at the same time rare among nymphs; only 3 fruits were produced per month. This fruit was rich in Qi, but despite being so rich in Qi, it was difficult to create pills from it. Because of that, it was usually only used for eating, but it was enough to increase the nymphs' cultivation.
'How does he know about the sniffer tree?' The nymph leader was cautious. This tree was actually something that few saw, even among the nymphs, how many of them that had seen the tree could be counted on both hands because it was protected by the sacred Earth.

Understanding her silence, Luan could imagine the shock she was in, so he added, "I found an old book talking about the tree of nymphs, so I understand your confusion the moment I talked about it, and that's precisely why I know how to use the fruit of that tree, and if you are willing to exchange some of these fruits with me, I will be willing to create pills from the fruit for you."
The leader of the nymphs did not respond immediately. She found herself in a difficult situation to make a decision so quickly, mainly because of the usefulness these fruits had for her race. The fruits of the sniffer tree were not simply something special, but something symbolic, something that represented the origin of the nymphs.
Even Luise's expression changed. If she hadn't known how strong Luan was, she would have already attacked him for revealing his knowledge. The information about the sniffer tree was something that could never be made public.
"Give me one day to think." After reflecting, Tifa spoke.
"Fine, I can do that," Luan replied calmly. Luan didn't expect to be accepted easily, so knowing what she'd think was already an achievement.

Back on the island, there were four new people. Arlinda and her daughter, Alice, and Sebastian and his daughter, Elise.
When he returned to the island, Luan immediately smelled the delicious smell of meat. It bloomed through his nose and caused every cell in his body to salivate with desire. He couldn't help but swallow.
"Mom, what are you cooking today? Why does it smell so good?"
A woman in her thirties, however, who looked to be in her mid-20s, wearing an apron, peeked out of the kitchen and smiled slightly. "You were lucky today. The food is almost ready."
"Oh? Lucky me." Luan smiled at her and kissed her face and went to wash his hands.
After staying on the island for a few days, Luan used his Qi to control the land and transform the stone and build a small castle.
It wasn't exactly luxurious, but it was pretty good, mainly after a little renovation, putting in floors and wallpaper. There were a total of 50 rooms, and it was enough to accommodate everyone.
