Chapter 2762 Genius From the Past!

Liu Jie was delighted after making this guess.

There was no longer any unfamiliarity or need to stand on ceremony when it came to Liu Jie, Lin Yuan, and Wen Yu. They were the closest of companions.

In the past, Liu Jie only saw himself as Lin Yuan's retainer. But as he spent more time by Lin Yuan's side, his thoughts changed continuously.

Liu Jie now saw himself not just as Lin Yuan's retainer but also as his companion.

There were only certain circumstances that would cause Liu Jie to change his perspective. For example, if Lin Yuan was in danger, Liu Jie would still use his body to defend Lin Yuan against deadly attacks like he had done in the past.

True friends would not be jealous of each other. It was true that Liu Jie was envious of Wen Yu, but this did not stop him from genuinely being happy for her.

"Congratulations Wen Yu! If you become an S-rank spirit qi professional, it will probably take at least a few decades before I manage to catch up with you!"

When Wen Yu heard this, she knew that Liu Jie had not grasped her meaning.

How could she have the capabilities to increase her spirit qi professional rank so abruptly?

Aside from a small part that came from Mystic Moon, most of what Wen Yu had now came from Lin Yuan.

"Big Brother Liu, how long will you be in seclusion this time? If you aren't in too much of a hurry, my advice is that you head home. Young Master is the one who increased my grade in a little over a day. When you return, he will do the same for you!"

A look of shock crossed Liu Jie's face before his breath turned ragged.

He was one of the three founders of Sky City and knew that he was the least useful of the three of them. Lin Yuan could easily swap him out for a subordinate such as Listen and Bai Qinghuan.

In terms of intelligence and strategy, he could not match up to Wen Yu. His martial force was where he had the most improvement. However, not only was he unable to defeat Lin Yuan, but it was also a struggle for him to distinguish himself among Sky City's experts. Hence, it was difficult for Liu Jie to gain any confidence.

When they went to the Sky Beyond the Clouds, he would surely become a burden to Lin Yuan.

Liu Jie was putting all his effort into increasing his power, but this was not an easy endeavor.

Liu Jie could no longer deny his potential. If his spirit qi professional rank could be raised, there would be specific environments where even Lin Yuan would be no match for him.

If Lin Yuan could help Wen Yu increase her power within a day or so, he would definitely be able to help Liu Jie as well.

He had been occupied with being in seclusion and contracting carcinoma feys in the Spirit Guards' land. However, all of these would be placed below raising his spirit qi professional rank.

Once his spirit qi professional rank was raised to S-rank, Elegance's grade and quality could be evolved. At that point, he would no longer have to be selective about the insect-species carcinoma feys he contracted and could contract any one of them stored in the Spirit Guards' land!

"Wen Yu, I'll come back now. Lin Yuan should not be leaving anytime soon, right?"

Liu Jie's tone contained anticipation, joy, and hope.

In truth, Liu Jie, Wen Yu, and Lin Yuan had not lived together for a long time. All three of them were busy with their own tasks.

The three of them all had their own tasks to attend to.

With an enemy such as Tower Canon looming over them, they had been leading each day nervously and feeling as though they were tiptoeing on the edge of a knife.

But now that the dead spirits crisis had come to an end and they had defeated Tower Canon, Epoch God Palace was not on hostile terms with Lin Yuan and was even on extremely friendly terms with him.

Given the circumstances, Liu Jie really hoped that he could enjoy simple days with Lin Yuan and Wen Yu in the main world before they went to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

Although power was important to Liu Jie, he also believed that living was the key part of life.

Liu Jie especially missed the feeling of living with his friends and family.

…

Hope also bloomed in Wen Yu's eyes when she heard what Liu Jie said.

Wen Yu turned to look at Lin Yuan. She knew that his spiritual energy was currently strong enough to hear the contents of her conversation with Liu Jie.

When Lin Yuan saw the hope in Wen Yu's eyes, he smiled and nodded.

Recently, aside from occasionally collecting spirit qi crystals, Lin Yuan spent most of his time in the Radiance Federation. If he had any tasks that he needed done, he could send out orders. There was no need for him to handle matters on his own.

Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter would handle the people from the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

Lin Yuan intended to enjoy life in the Radiance Federation for some time. He would sear memories of his time in the main world into his brain before he went to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

Lin Yuan had not felt much reluctance when he left the Xia Region for the Royal Capital. Instead, all he felt was excitement and hopefulness.

But now that he was about to leave for the Sky Beyond the Clouds, Lin Yuan felt reluctant to depart from the main world.

This thought brought a smile to Lin Yuan's face.

Since he felt reluctant, he would use the best of his abilities to enable the main world to develop!

When Lin Yuan nodded, Wen Yu smiled radiantly, resembling a blooming crabapple.

"Big Brother Liu, Young Master will be remaining at home for some time. I'm not sure exactly how long he'll be staying. But don't forget to buy more ingredients before you return. Young Master and I haven't had your cooking in a very long time!"

Even if Wen Yu did not give him the reminder, Liu Jie had already planned on buying more ingredients to cook for Wen Yu and Liu Jie.

Suddenly, a thought struck Liu Jie, and he asked, "Is the Mother of Bloodbath at home?"

Wen Yu checked the time before answering, "Sister Love is currently with the team from the Heavenly Family Cottage. They are tending to and settling the various fey species. She will only be able to return six months later at the earliest. So you only have to prepare food for the few of us! I will fetch Little Flower and Little Grass home tomorrow."

During the next month, Listen, Qin Yu, and the rest would slowly make their way back to the Return from Faraway Mansion.

Since the Mother of Bloodbath was not at home, Liu Jie did not have to worry about the quantity of food he made.

Although Wen Yu also had a large appetite, her appetite was nothing compared to that of the Mother of Bloodbath.

Since Lin Yuan intended on remaining in the Return from Faraway Mansion to rest for some time, Wen Yu also needed to make her own preparations.

After ending the call, Wen Yu poured out a cup of Three Treasures Tea for Lin Yuan and said, "Young Master, Big Brother Liu cares more about increasing his power than I do. He almost exploded with happiness when he found out he could speed up his spirit qi professional rank promotion!"

Lin Yuan knew that Liu Jie was competitive and ambitious. This was especially so after he became certain of his talent. Since then, his desire to increase his power became even stronger than before.

It would take some time for Lin Yuan to use his body composition to evolve feys' grades.

Lin Yuan was in no rush to help Wen Yu to evolve her feys' grades. Instead, he gave her a chest filled with spirit qi crystals that she could use for her daily needs.

Rather than using his body composition to evolve Wen Yu's feys' grades and qualities, Lin Yuan preferred to help spirit qi professionals to raise their grades.

Lin Yuan was not satisfied with just helping Wen Yu, Liu Jie, and the rest to become S-rank spirit qi professionals. He was going to help them become birth-horoscope experts at the very least.

Wen Yu, Liu Jie, and the rest could evolve their feys' grades quickly using spirit qi crystals.

Lin Yuan already had a general plan in mind.

After Lin Yuan returned to the Radiance Federation, he should head to the Radiant Moon Palace first to spend time with the Moon Empress.

But the Moon Empress had gone to the Startling Lines Continent to participate in the first Major Federation Union meeting since the dead spirits crisis had come to an end. She would only be returning two weeks later at the earliest.

Lin Yuan needed to stay in the Return from Faraway Mansion for another two weeks before he could head to the Radiant Moon Palace.

Autumn was currently above the Startling Lines Continent to protect it.

Everyone had selfishness within them.

In order to protect the main world, Lin Yuan would concentrate most of the defensive forces in the Radiance Federation and Startling Lines Continent.

Wen Yu did not bother with courtesies when it came to resources provided by Lin Yuan. She knew she needed to utilize these resources in order to improve her management and building of Sky City.

…

While sitting on the sofa, Lin Yuan stretched out just in time to see Liu Jie striding into the mansion.

Since Liu Jie had also contracted the Lifespan Mouse, his lifespan would not shorten, and his looks would be frozen in their current state.

Hence, even if they were apart for a long time, Liu Jie did not look any different to Lin Yuan.

Liu Jie was always very restrained when it came to his emotions.

Yet, now that he was reuniting with Lin Yuan after such a long time apart, he could not stop himself from giving Lin Yuan a hug.

A hug between brothers needed to be as passionate as possible.

Liu Jie realized that Lin Yuan had grown much taller since they last met. They were almost the same height now.

In terms of looks, he could not even begin to compare himself to Lin Yuan. He would never be able to match up to him!

When they went to the Sky Beyond the Clouds, Lin Yuan would attract attention everywhere he went!

Spring remained by Lin Yuan's side.

When Lin Yuan and his friends were enjoying and sharing warm moments, Spring and Summer hid their physical selves and auras.

Spring's body composition allowed her to control all that had just emerged and sprouted. This included new ideas.

After sensing Liu Jie's thoughts, Spring could not help but nod.

Lin Yuan's Body of All Spirits would indeed cause him to become the center of attention in the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

But this would not just be because of his looks.

The lifeforms in the Sky Beyond the Clouds were very practical. There were many species that could alter their looks after increasing their power. Hence, appearances were no longer something that was permanent.

Even if one's true looks left a lot to be desired, they could use special lifeforms and spiritual ingredients to change their looks into a perfect facade.

At the Sky Beyond the Clouds, the definition of beauty was determined by one's bloodline aura. Bloodline aura was even above wealth.

Lin Yuan's Body of All Spirits could temper any bloodline and apply the bloodline to his own body. As such, there was no lifeform in the Sky Beyond the Clouds that could be compared with Lin Yuan.

However, with Lin Yuan's elite status as the Saint, he would never compete with other entities in the Sky Beyond the Clouds in terms of attractiveness.

A group of lifeforms from the Sky Beyond the Clouds would receive an unprecedented transformation, which would be enough to alter the future development of their species.

This transformation would come from them joining Lin Yuan.

Spring and Summer felt Wen Yu and Liu Jie were extremely lucky. They were Lin Yuan's subordinates, yet he saw them as friends. Because of Lin Yuan's attitude, even Spring and Summer were extremely respectful toward them. After all, followers were beneath friends.

"Lin Yuan, I will go and cook now. It will just be the three of us, so I won't cook too much. But I promise that I will make your favorites!"

If Wen Yu was the Return from Faraway Mansion's steward, Liu Jie was the chef.

Not only did Liu Jie have great skills as a chef, but he also remembered the individual tastes of every person.

Lin Yuan and Wen Yu liked to eat meat. They especially liked the meat of the Black Back Mountain Boar but were also fine with beef and lamb. However, Lin Yuan did not like eating fish. Chu Ci shared Wen Yu's tastes and liked eating tender fish.

Hence, when Liu Jie cooked, he needed to cater to not only Lin Yuan's taste but also Wen Yu's taste.

…

Chu Ci was previously in seclusion in the Spirit Lock spatial zone.

After Lin Yuan returned to the Radiance Federation, Chu Ci went to see Cold Moon and Cold Moon took her to the Startling Lines Continent to train.

Lin Yuan did not have any objections to this. Cold Moon was Chu Ci's master and could take charge of molding her. Cold Moon was also capable of protecting Chu Ci.

After Mystic Moon, Cold Moon managed to break through her power as well and was now an Above Eternal expert.

Otherwise, there would be four of them having dinner together in the Radiance Federation today!

Liu Jie did not need Wen Yu and Lin Yuan's help when it came to cooking.

…

Lin Yuan sat on the sofa and took out all the information that Wen Yu had organized. The mansion's hall soon filled up with paper.

When Wen Yu saw this, she scratched her head and said, "Young Master, this is only around 1/7 of the total amount of information. I was going to summarize this information after organizing it, but there was no way to do so. Once you're done reading through this information, you should be able to gain a detailed understanding of the recent happenings in the main world!"

Although Wen Yu could use the Elemental Paper's exclusive skill to gather information, Lin Yuan could tell from the sheer volume of information she had worked hard to gather.

There was no way that Lin Yuan could read all this information page by page. There were far too many events happening in the main world each day. If Lin Yuan used his eyes to read this information, it would take him around three years to finish. If Wen Yu continued organizing information in these three years, the amount of information would pile up even higher!

Lin Yuan summoned Genius.

After being summoned, Genius was about to cling to Lin Yuan when it suddenly wiggled its nose and meowed in a child-like tone.

"Yuan, I smell red braised meat! I haven't eaten red braised meat in a very long time! Please include some red braised meat in my meal later!"

Genius appeared akin to a creature sprung from the realms of imagination and fantasy. Its tail billowed and flowed, its form exuding an elusive and celestial air.

However, when it communicated, Lin Yuan observed a Genius adorned with matted fur, possessing a penchant for devouring red-braised meat. Curiously, it consistently recoiled and never dared to consume any when Lin Yuan presented the dish before it!
