Both Zhong Ling and Shen Xuan were Guardian Beast Masters, but neither possessed a Bloodline Talent.
Therefore, Zhong Yi couldn't use a Soul Taming Seed to form a Contract with either of them.
Zhong Yi had already confirmed this with the Soul-Controlling Flower before.
Otherwise, even if a Soul Taming Seed could only provide them with a minuscule boost, Zhong Yi wouldn't have been stingy with something he could obtain every few days.
Just as Zhong Yi was thinking this, he felt a sudden stirring from the Soul-Controlling Flower rooted in his soul.
The Soul-Controlling Flower had stirred like this before.
For instance, when Zhong Yi discovered the Fertility Creation Ant Queen in the Exotic Beast Garden, and when he sensed the Judgment Evil Lotus within the Flower Venerable.
However, the disturbances on those two occasions were far less intense than the current stirring of the Soul-Controlling Flower in Zhong Yi's soul.
