Chapter 1616: Stay With You Through the Night!

When Lin Yuan returned to the mansion, he received Gao Feng’s call before he even reached his room.

Gao Feng had been locked away training for some time, and there had been no activity from him in the group chat since.

Now that Gao Feng was calling Lin Yuan, it had to mean that he was done evolving his power and contracting his sacred source lifeform.

When Lin Yuan picked up the call, he heard Gao Feng sob. “Lin Yuan, Master finally let me out! I have been working like a dog! Although I was only locked away for two months, it felt like I’d been training for two years!”

Lin Yuan smiled when he heard what Gao Feng said.

Gao Feng was already hard-working by nature.

In order to increase his power, he sought out a better team to fight in the Allstar Match with. He had been training consistently for a long time.

Without all his efforts, he would not have been able to seize the opportunity at the Guard Ye Banquet and become Cicada Song’s disciple.

It seemed that Cicada Song had been putting Gao Feng through the wringer for the past two months.

Gao Feng wanted to participate in the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection.

As a disciple of royalty, he shouldered a heavy responsibility.

Cicada Song did not know that Lin Yuan was Black, and Lin Yuan had not told Gao Feng about it either.

It was likely that Cicada Song was placing all the responsibility of taking on the Freedom Federation envoy group on Gao Feng’s back.

It seemed that Gao Feng’s power had reached a whole new level.

Before Lin Yuan could ask about what was new with Gao Feng, the latter went on to say, “Brother, I’m done with what I need to do here. All of you will probably have to come and spectate the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection. You’ll be able to see me fight.”

Lin Yuan did not hear the relief of being let out after two months. Rather, he had a strangely heavy tone.

Gao Feng said hoarsely, “Brother, if you’re not too busy, I would like to ask you out to have a few drinks together.”

Lin Yuan immediately realized why Gao Feng’s tone was so austere.

The root of the matter lay in the fight against the Freedom Federation envoy group after the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection.

Gao Feng had either guessed this result on his own or was told by Cicada Song.

Regardless of which it was, Gao Feng had definitely decided to take on the responsibility.

This was part of his duty as a disciple of royalty.

Since he was about to fight side by side with Gao Feng, Lin Yuan decided that it was time to tell Gao Feng some things.

Thus, Lin Yuan said, “You’ve been to my mansion before. The last time you came, the Submerged Flood Dragon Lake was still being constructed. But now, many pavilions sit on the Sunlight King Lotus and glitter under the sunlight. I will prepare wine and wait for you on the lake.”

Wen Yu had used the Cinnabar Sweet Osmanthus’ flowers to brew a wine that did not have high alcohol content.

Lin Yuan had been intending to use this wine but eventually decided against it. Instead, he chose the Flames Wine that Zong Ze had served during their previous gathering.

The Flames Wine was a strong wine brewed from various fire-elemental spiritual ingredients and fire-element energy.

When drunk, one would feel as though their throat was on fire.

In the past, Zong Ze relied on the Flames Wine to suppress the bad luck that plagued him.

Lin Yuan walked toward the Submerged Flood Dragon Lake with the Flames Wine in hand.

When Blackie sensed Lin Yuan approaching, it flew out of the water and charged at Lin Yuan.

Every time Lin Yuan came to see Blackie, he would leave completely drenched.

However, Lin Yuan had business to attend to at this time and hurriedly used wings made of the Day and Night Spirit Silver and flew away from Blackie.

After he shook off the water that Blackie had splashed onto him, Lin Yuan landed on Blackie’s neck and said, “Blackie, I am meeting a friend for drinks at the pavilion tonight. Be good, and stop chasing the Angelfish of Bliss around the lake.”

Blackie replied gently, “Okay! I will take it as you spending time with me as you’re drinking on the surface of the Submerged Flood Dragon Lake. I’ll nap underwater.”

Lin Yuan admired the beauty of the Submerged Flood Dragon Lake.

The Sunlight King Lotus absorbed the sunlight and looked like another sun that was resting on the lake.

The rainbow Angelfish of Bliss swam around in schools in the water. They looked like rainbows adorning the sun.

There were over 100 pavilions on the leaves of the Sunlight King Lotus, and flowers surrounded each pavilion.

It looked like a bona fide celestial realm.

Blackie sent Lin Yuan to a pavilion.

Lin Yuan did not have to wait long before he spotted Gao Feng at the edge of the Submerged Flood Dragon Lake.

Gao Feng waved at Lin Yuan. Without Blackie having to fetch him, he waved his hand and summoned a three-meter-tall rose.

This rose was the Breeze Hibiscus.

Lin Yuan noticed that the Breeze Hibiscus had evolved to Diamond X/Fantasy V, the highest level a young expert could attain.

The Breeze Hibiscus’ leaves swayed, kicking up a breeze that blew Gao Feng over to Lin Yuan.

Gao Feng was smiling, but Lin Yuan could sense from his gaze that he was holding himself back.

Lin Yuan handed the Flames Wine to Gao Feng and said, “You said you wanted to drink, so I prepared this for you. Tonight, I will drink with you for the entire night. You can say whatever you want to say!”

Gao Feng reached out and hugged Lin Yuan before he took a swig of the Flames Wine.

This mouthful of wine seemed to set all of Gao Feng’s blood on fire.

Usually, Gao Feng was not very expressive.

Although he saw Lin Yuan as a good friend, he would normally never do something like hugging him.

Gao Feng took a deep breath and said, “Let me tell you a story! There was a little boy who was beloved by his grandfather from the moment he was born. He could have anything and everything that he asked for. Although his father was unreasonable and his mother was strict, he could still do whatever he wanted. When he was young, this boy did not have any friends. But once he came of age, he managed to make a few good friends. Because of these friends, he suddenly found himself the disciple of an expert. Now, the father who never acknowledged him is putting him on a pedestal. This delights the boy! But one day, the boy will have to put his life on the line as a disciple of royalty for the glory of the Radiance Federation.”

Gao Feng took another gulp of wine and went on to say.
