When Anu Mious died, it was slightly later than when the battle outside ended. So the people of Cloud Summit, after shocking the various races in front of the light barrier, added fuel to the fire.
The situation in the vine space was closed off; everyone could only see that final moment when countless vines, like demonic thorns, ruthlessly pierced Anu Mious's body.
Therefore, no one knew that before that, the two lives had been trading blows. In that instant, they were all stunned by the terrifying attack of the Yama Tree.
Was that the kind of attack power a support should have?
Many people simply couldn't understand why such a terrifying attack would appear.
Even Yao Han Su and Bei Yin couldn't figure it out.
"Logically speaking, a support should not have such attacking power, unless... she simply isn't a support," Bei Yin said slowly while looking at Ye Zhongming.
The King of Cloud Summit scratched his eyebrow with his little finger, "It's never been us to say that Luo Luo is a support."
Yao Han Su's expression became somewhat serious, and like Bei Yin, he looked at Ye Zhongming, "You must cultivate this person well. If you can't do it, then leave it to me. Her talent is too terrifying, even more so than Xia Bai just now. I really feel that under equal conditions with fuleira, you might not necessarily be her match."
Ye Zhongming felt a bit of a headache. Since Yao Han Su said that, it meant he really had this thought.
No matter how the Su Clan had declined over the years, they were still a super clan, always one of the leaders among the three major factions. Even if Ye Zhongming were given another fifty years, he wouldn't catch up with them in terms of foundation.
To cultivate a person, if the Su Clan exerted all their effort, it truly wouldn't be something just starting out and needing vast resources like Ye Zhongming could compare to.
A fairly obvious example is Jie Su.
Jie Su is very talented, and one could even say he is one of the most talented individuals in the history of the Su Clan. When Yao Han Su had not yet taken the position of clan leader, Jie Su had already received many resources, giving him a high starting point, and his cultivation always outpaced his peers.
By the time Yao Han Su, who had treated Jie Su very well and had designated him as his successor, became the clan leader, Jie Su received even more resources.
When Ye Zhongming hadn't arrived, Pao Bai was envious of Jie Su to the point of anguish, and to some extent, Pao Bai also benefited from it.
However, after a bit of thought, Ye Zhongming still rejected Yao Han Su.
The internal situation of the Su Clan was somewhat complicated now. Yao Han Su's faction held absolute initiative, while the other two factions were somewhat subdued.
But the more it was like this, the more Yao Han Su had to consider the interests of the other two factions when dealing with matters. If he went too far, the backlash would be unprecedentedly large.
At least for now, Yao Han Su's faction couldn't withstand it.
After all, the other two factions were just subdued, not without strength.
Moreover, the external situation was not friendly to the Su Clan. If the internal situation became unstable, they would essentially have no time to spare, and Ye Zhongming would lose the protection the Su Clan provided him.
Cultivating the Yama Tree would undoubtedly require a massive amount of resources. With Jie Su already being a resource black hole, taking out so much more would surely raise objections from the other two factions.
It was likely the feeling of "spending so much on an outsider who might leave at any time, what a joke!"
Staying on Ye Zhongming's side, although the resource situation would undoubtedly fluctuate, at least no other problems would arise. Moreover, the Yama Tree had already consumed the "years gold" from the Gu Rui Imperial Clan. Before fuleira reached fifty or even eighty thousand, she just needed a large amount of Moon Age Gold. In this regard, Ye Zhongming was still confident.
"Hmph, kid, you better not regret it. Each of these four is worth investing heavily in, especially Xia Bai and Luo Luo. You'll then understand how much it takes to cultivate someone; the better the talent, the more it costs. In the future, they will become resource black holes, draining your resources dry. Not only will your Cloud Summit Manor's development be affected, but they will also delay their cultivation because you can’t supply enough. You’ll have reasons to cry then."
