Chapter 2732 Lin Yuan and the Moon Empress' Meeting!
The Moon Empress was finally able to relax fully when she saw Lin Yuan's message.
By saying that he was arriving back in the Radiance Federation soon, it meant that Lin Yuan was safe and unharmed.
This was two pieces of good news for the Moon Empress.
However, she did not share the information immediately. She wanted to wait for Lin Yuan to return to the Radiance Federation and hear the details of the situation from him before she made any further arrangements.
Although Tower Canon had been destroyed, the dead spirits crisis was still ongoing.
The dead spirits crisis was disastrous for the entire main world.
This calamity was a wake-up call for the Moon Empress.
Although the main world used to encounter dimensional rift openings, the federations lived under relative peace. The only friction came from the scuffles between individual federations that only depleted the individual federations' strength and never made them more of a threat than they already were.
If the Radiance Federation had maintained a readiness to tackle any risks, it would not have had such a tough time at the beginning of the dead spirits crisis.
If it was possible, the Moon Empress did not want to eliminate every single dead spirit immediately. Instead, she wanted to use them to train the main world and increase the power of the main world's federations.
The Moon Empress planned to hold discussions with the Vast Sea Labyrinth's leaders.
The sea clans were stronger than the humans, but they also needed to participate in this training.
The Moon Empress was prepared to use the next few decades to fundamentally improve the main world.
Aside from having exceptional power, this year's Radiance Hundred Sequence also possessed outstanding leadership skills.
The Moon Empress was going to give Liu Wencheng many resources so he could personally raise the power of the Radiance Hundred Sequence.
Mystic Moon had been sticking by the Moon Empress' side.
Cold Moon remained on the outside to disseminate the Moon Empress' instructions while Mystic Moon stayed in the Radiant Moon Palace so he could pay close attention to the Moon Empress' plans and assist her in organizing everything.
The Moon Empress had remained in a state of worry ever since Lin Yuan left the Radiance Federation a week ago. The ever-steady Moon Empress was only able to maintain her usual composure when she was busy with work. At any other time, she was filled with anxiety.
But now, the anxiety vanished from the Moon Empress' face and was replaced by excitement and delight.
Mystic Moon knew that Lin Yuan had sent updates about his situation.
Usually, the Moon Empress did not ask many questions when Lin Yuan said that he would be returning soon. But this time, she could not stop herself from asking.
[Moon Empress]: Little Yuan, how long will it take you to reach the Radiance Federation?
When Lin Yuan saw the Moon Empress' message, he realized just how concerned she was for him.
[Lin Yuan]: I should be arriving at the Radiant Moon Palace at around 2:00 p.m. tomorrow!
Normally, Lin Yuan could travel back to the Radiance Federation directly through the Space Tunnel in the basement.
However, he had moved the underground palace to the Spirit Lock spatial zone, causing the Space Tunnel to lose its effects.
Since the Ethereal Jellyfish could grow more main tentacles after the Space Tunnel was removed, Lin Yuan did not actually suffer any real losses.
Before he returned to the Radiance Federation, Lin Yuan was going to instruct Lift Marsh to bring Thick Soil City back to the Startling Lines Continent before sending the Land Imps to fortify Thick Soil City's base.
After Tower Canon was destroyed and the main world returned to a state of peace, the Startling Lines Continent was going to become the Radiance Federation's gate to the rest of the world.
Luo Lan, Yi Huailong, and Jin Qianxun, who ruled over the three federations that made up the Startling Lines Continent, all sent Lin Yuan messages. They hoped that the Divine Wood, Iron Hammer, and Great Lush Federations could return to the Startling Lines Continent.
With their abilities and experience, they were easily able to recognize the Startling Lines Continent's strategic significance.
Firstly, Lin Yuan had invested numerous resources into the Startling Lines Continent and turned it into a virtually impenetrable fortress.
Furthermore, there was an abundance of resources in the Startling Lines Continent, and it was also the Divine Wood, Iron Hammer, and Great Lush Federations's home.
The three of them wanted to continue their development in their home.
The Divine Wood, Iron Hammer, and Great Lush Federations were all fully under Lin Yuan's control.
There was no question that allowing these three federations to continue developing in the Startling Lines Continent was the best option.
Luo Lan had sought Su Yiren's opinion before sending her request to Lin Yuan. Su Yiren supported Luo Lan in fighting for such an opportunity.
If the dead spirits crisis could come to an end without any more trouble cropping up, Su Yiren would also lead the people from the Dark and Sand Island Continents back to their original continents.
However, Su Yiren knew that Lin Yuan was busy with many matters and stressed to Luo Lan not to rush Lin Yuan.
Since they could not offer him any help now, they should not be adding to his burden either.
It was true that Lin Yuan was very busy of late and did not have time to attend to these trivial matters.
Wen Yu was also busy. Thus, Lin Yuan could not assign her to take care of these trivial tasks.
Lin Yuan had already issued orders to Lift Marsh.
When Lift Marsh brought Thick Soil City back to the Startling Lines Continent, Lin Yuan would instruct it to deliver the demon insects to the boundaries between the main world and the various dimensional worlds.
…
Lin Yuan did not rest while he was riding on the Kill Food Sky Butterfly. Instead, he took out the Thoughts Letter Paper so he could attend to all the tasks that had piled up of late.
It did not take long for him to see the requests sent by Luo Lan, Yi Huailong, and Jin Qianxun.
After a moment of silence, Lin Yuan decided to agree to allow the three of them to take the Divine Wood, Iron Hammer, and Great Lush Federations back to the Startling Lines Continent so they could continue their development.
The Startling Lines Continent was not small. The three federations continuing their development there would not prevent the Radiance Federation from using the Startling Lines Continent as its gate. Rather, the three federations' presence would help to save the Radiance Federation a lot of trouble.
Lin Yuan had already overhauled these three federations, and they could be considered his direct subsidiaries. He did not have to worry when they were in charge of watching the Radiance Federation's gate.
Moreover, aside from the Radiance Federation, Lin Yuan had given most of his resources to the Divine Wood, Iron Hammer, and Great Lush Federations. Hence, the three federations' overall power would only grow.
Although they could not compete with the Freedom Federation and Azure Federation now, they had solid positions among the second-tier federations.
These three federations were on close terms now because they were all under his control. Although they could not be considered united, they were able to carry out his strategies together.
Lin Yuan sent replies to three of them.
Yi Huailong relied on Yi Huailu, who was a Class 5 Creation Master, to rapidly increase his own power.
Yi Huailong could clearly sense that as the Divine Wood Federation's overall power rose, he needed to increase his own power in order to secure his position as the ruler of the Divine Wood Federation.
If his power could not match his position, naysayers would emerge to undermine him. Yi Huailong was worried that if these negative sentiments spread and reached Lin Yuan, the latter would swap him out.
Jin Qianxun also had the same thoughts.
However, Jin Qianxun did not have a Class 5 Creation Master by his side and did not have a convenient avenue he could use to increase his power like Yi Huailong did.
It was true that Jin Qianxun had ties to Weng Queji, who was a Class 5 Creation Master. However, Weng Queji only served Lin Yuan and did not cater to him.
Hence, Jin Qianxun could only do his best to develop the Great Lush Federation and demonstrate his value to Lin Yuan.
Compared to Yi Huailong and Luo Lan, Jin Qianxun lacked confidence. This was because he was acutely aware of how he had managed to take the seat of the ruler of the Great Lush Federation.
Luo Lan had not done much to develop the Iron Hammer Federation recently. She had nurtured a few royal attendants who were capable of helping her handle appropriate tasks.
Luo Lan had been focusing most of her energy on helping Su Yiren to manage the Sand Island citizens.
After Su Yiren migrated, it was very difficult for her to manage the Sand Island citizens.
After all, she did not have much time to spare after handling the tasks involved with managing the Dark Federation.
Luo Lan's help took significant pressure off of Su Yiren.
Naturally, Su Yiren was touched by Luo Lan's help.
Su Yiren knew that Yi Huailong, Jin Qianxun, and Luo Lan were secretly competing with each other.
In spite of that, Luo Lan was willing to help her, which was enough to prove the genuity of their sisterly bond.
Before Su Yiren formed ties with others, she was constantly judging the value of others.
Luo Lan was very skilled at managing federations.
The Iron Hammer Federation's previous king had nurtured Luo Lan as his successor because he recognized her talent.
However, Luo Lan lacked perseverance and ambition. Hence, it was highly unlikely that Lin Yuan would take her with him to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
Normally, Su Yiren only liked to make friends with people of value.
However, regardless of what happened in the future, Luo Lan would always be her sister.
…
Luo Lan and Jin Qianxun had received Lin Yuan's response almost at the same time, and both of them were over the moon.
After receiving Lin Yuan's message, Luo Lan relayed the news to Su Yiren.
Su Yiren had already expected Lin Yuan to agree to her and the rest's requests.
Su Yiren sent her reply to Luo Lan.
[Su Yiren]: Once I'm done with the tasks I have on hand, I will help you to develop the Iron Hammer Federation like I used to. Luo Lan, thank you for all the help you've given me!
After Su Yiren understood Lin Yuan's goal, she stopped limiting her sights to the main world. She also wanted to go with him to explore worlds beyond the main world.
Su Yiren intended to properly nurture her 14 poppy fruits so they could temporarily manage the Dark and Sand Island Continents in her place.
Eventually, she would have to nurture another group of talents.
The 14 poppy fruits were part of the Absolute Love Poppy's abilities. If she left the main world, she would have to take the 14 poppy fruits with her.
…
Wo Lun had also sent many messages to Lin Yuan.
He had been extremely excited recently.
As a marine federation, the Violent Wind Federation lacked mineral resources. They also had to source for lumber resources from islands on their outskirts. Hence, they were very constrained in the resources they needed to build boats and vessels.
Wo Lun had not felt this way when he was in such environments in the past.
It was only after he received the wood materials and metals from Lin Yuan that Wo Lun realized his breadth of resource interactions in the past had been far too limited!
With so many resources that he had never encountered before now in his possession, Wo Lun could build designs that he never could have imagined in the past.
It did not take long before Wo Lun made a discovery.
[Wo Lun]: Leo, I noticed that jade-textured wood can perfectly prevent rotting caused by seawater. It works best with sea mulberry wood that has water elements applied to it! If jade-textured sea mulberry wood is used to cover the bottom of the boat and Strong Floating Iron is used to build the frame, the boat will be able to travel to every corner of the seas in the main world! Fey storage boxes are also able to store living resources. As for a motor, feys that can release lava and tamed aquatic lifeforms are all good options! I believe that the main world will enter a great marine era once the dead spirits crisis is over.
Wo Lun sent his message to Lin Yuan after serious thought. He did not casually relay his thoughts.
The establishment of the Major Federation Union made Wo Lun aware that it was now necessary for the federations to become united!
The Island Whales could be used to form the links between the human federations.
However, the Island Whales were much too rare. Hence, there were not enough of them to meet the needs of all the federations.
If the boats and vessels could traverse the seas with ease, they could become the regular mode of marine transportation!
The federations that did not have the Island Whales would have no other choice.
The federations that did have the Island Whales would also be willing to sell their specialty goods and obtain rare foreign resources.
Lin Yuan controlled the water world dimensional lifeforms and was on good terms with the Vast Sea Labyrinth.
The water world dimensional lifeforms, sea clans, and humans were all on cooperative terms because of the dead spirits crisis.
After the dead spirits crisis ended, it was unlikely that the sea beasts would attack the humans' boats.
The only thing that the humans needed to tackle was the natural obstacles of the sea's environment.
After some pondering, Wo Lun believed that he needed to share his thoughts with Lin Yuan.
…
When Lin Yuan received the message from Wo Lun, he silently praised Wo Lun's foresight.
In actuality, Lin Yuan had given the spiritual ingredients from the dimensional worlds and the jade-textured wood to Wo Lun because he wanted to enact such positive changes in the main world.
Lin Yuan would definitely have detailed discussions with Wo Lun about this matter. Hence, he did not send a thorough reply to Wo Lun.
As he looked out at the silhouette of the Radiance Federation in the distance, Lin Yuan was filled with an overwhelming sense of accomplishment and belonging.
Lin Yuan instructed the Kill Food Sky Butterfly to land on the borders of the Radiance Federation.
The Radiance Federation's border had many spatial nodes that Lin Yuan had set up using the Ethereal Jellyfish's tentacle node.
He could travel much faster using them than flying on the Kill Food Sky Butterfly!
…
Lin Yuan did not return to the Return from Faraway Mansion to clean up—his body was immaculate. Even if he did not shower and wash himself, he would remain in an extremely clean state.
Instead, he immediately went to the Radiant Moon Palace.
From the moment he appeared in the Radiant Moon Palace's inner palace, he locked eyes with the Moon Empress.
Mystic Moon was standing behind the Moon Empress.
When Lin Yuan used the spatial nodes to travel, no obvious spatial fluctuations appeared in the locations he traveled to.
Hence, it was likely that the Moon Empress and Mystic Moon had been waiting there for him.
Lin Yuan reached out and pressed down the stray hairs on his head as he told the Moon Empress with a smile, "Master, just like I said in my message on the Thoughts Letter Paper, everything is going well!"
