"I never said they were wrong," Tan You said. "But sometimes, opportunities are limited. If you constantly hesitate and refuse to move forward, it doesn't matter how many chances you get. It's all for nothing if you can't seize them."
Peacock arched an eyebrow. "You're in favor of the Spirit Plants and demon beasts forming symbiotic contracts, then? So why haven't you made one yourself? I bet if you just asked, the entire Spirit Plant clan would be scrambling to say yes."
"What, as some kind of charity project?" Tan You scoffed. "How boring would that be? A relationship where one side is strong and the other is weak is incredibly unstable. It can't be a one-way street. A bond only becomes stable when both parties benefit from it."
Bai Ze nodded. "Jin Huan is right. For a symbiotic contract to work, both parties need to be on relatively equal footing."
