Chapter 2924 Evolving Faerie!
Kong Huan intended to wait until her bond with Xue Kang had deepened before revealing the existence of the child growing within her. Otherwise, if she told Xue Kang that she was pregnant with his child now, Xue Kang would definitely be overwhelmed with thoughts when confronted with two problems simultaneously. By waiting to share the news, she could build up Xue Kang's excitement for the baby's arrival through his affection for her and ultimately transforming that excitement into love.
Kong Huan had her own schemes in her heart. The Alluring Fox relied on their bloodline to manipulate emotions, allowing Kong Huan to obtain the greatest benefits from the interweaving and game of emotions with Xue Kang.
Xue Kang and Kong Huan's relationship seemed like a match made in heaven, but it was actually a scheme that Kong Huan had meticulously orchestrated in order to let the Alluring Fox find the protection of the Snow-Covered Fox and use their power for their own benefit.
Kong Huan could acutely sense a hint of turmoil in Xue Kang's aura beside her, indicating that she had accomplished half of her goal. It was fine as long as Xue Kang was interested in her. During her interactions with Xue Kang, his feelings for her would inevitably deepen continuously.
Lin Yuan was about to return to Sky City. He harbored no concerns regarding Kong Huan's situation at all. Firstly, as a superior, Lin Yuan had to have faith in Kong Huan's competence, given that he had chosen to place her in an important position. Furthermore, Lin Yuan had provided Kong Huan with everything that she needed and all of her requirements for development had been fulfilled. Under such circumstances, Lin Yuan would not be able to do anything if Kong Huan were to encounter any more problems.
Lin Yuan had made huge strides in the development of the Sky Beyond the Clouds. Before Sky City could stabilize its footing, Lin Yuan started to build faith country based on the actual situation in the Sky Beyond the Clouds. Building the faith country had taken a lot of effort on all the members of Sky City.
In the beginning, Lin Yuan had taken large strides to grasp the situation and challenge the core members of Sky City. During the decades of development in the main world, the core members of Sky City had grown accustomed to a life of comfort and had become lax. At present, Lin Yuan had yet to return to Sky City, but he believed that all the members in Sky City had entered their optimal state.
Lin Yuan's initial bold steps did not indicate blind arrogance. On the contrary, he preferred to proceed with caution and stability. For a long time to come, Lin Yuan would develop his faction in the East Universe.
Apart from investing in resources, Lin Yuan could not offer Kong Huan much help. Of course, if Lin Yuan could satisfy Kong Huan's resource needs, yet Kong Huan was not able to let the Alluring Fox gain a foothold in the North Universe, then their existence would hold no meaning for Lin Yuan.
Spring, whose expression was steady, suddenly glanced in a direction, and Winter reacted the same way as Spring. Liu Chen, Liu Yao, Kani, and Jin Chen did not discover anything. However, they had already noticed the changes in Spring and Winter's expressions. They followed Spring and Winter's gaze and looked into the distance, trying their best to see what they had discovered.
Spring and Winter took the lead in speaking to Lin Yuan, "Young Master, there's a special disturbance coming from the east and west, and it seemed to have connections with the faeries. It's most likely that a natural landscape is evolving to a faerie or perhaps it's a breakthrough for a faerie seeking evolution. No matter what the reason is, I think it's necessary for us to go and take a look since we've discovered it! We're quite far away from this faerie. It's hard to sense it here. However, those species and factions that are closer will definitely be able to sense the aura and also rush over!"
Spring and Winter's words did not surprise Kani and Jin Chen much, but it shocked Liu Chen and Liu Yao. Despite their best efforts to investigate, Liu Chen and Liu Yao couldn't detect the slightest anomaly. This was equivalent to telling them that there was an insurmountable gap between them and Spring and Winter.
Having witnessed Winter demonstrate his strength, Liu Chen and Liu Yao were able to assess and anticipate his abilities. Now, it seemed that Winter had not used his full strength when dealing with the both of them.
Lin Yuan now understood the value of a faerie. The first faerie that Lin Yuan came into contact with was the one that helped Begin Lady pass the Heaven's Trial. After passing the Heaven's Trial, she directly became an intermediate faerie.
The feys that the Begin Lady had nurtured through its bloodline had enhanced the strength of the Startling Lines Continent's three federations. Begin Lady could even use her own abilities to help Lin Yuan forge precious instruments.
Although Begin Lady's forging efficiency was inferior to Blood Love's, its forging speed far exceeded Blood Love's! Within the time Blood Love forged one precious instrument, Begin Lady could forge at least three.
Celestial Sight was a faerie transformed from the Snow Celestial Mountain. Although its ability was inferior to Begin Lady's, the snow region it created was a blissful haven for all ice-type spiritual ingredients. Not only could it speed up the growth of ice-type spiritual ingredients, but it could also increase their production. If Lin Yuan could control one more faerie, even if it was only a lower faerie, it would increase Sky City's foundation.
"Let's go and take a look. Everyone, be careful to restrain your aura and try not to become the target of other factions as soon as we go over."
It was true that Lin Yuan was in a hurry to return to Sky City, but between the choice of returning to Sky City two days earlier or fighting for a faerie, he would definitely choose the latter. Even if Lin Yuan couldn't win over this faerie, it was still worth spending his time on it. If it weren't for the fact that Lin Yuan had experts like Liu Chen and Liu Yao, as well as Spring and Winter, he definitely wouldn't have risked his life so easily.
Even Lin Yuan, who had just arrived in the Sky Beyond the Clouds, recognized the benefits of controlling a faerie, so other factions would naturally be aware of it, too. If there was indeed an opportunity to compete for the faerie, the major factions would definitely use all their strength to fight to the death.
Upon hearing Lin Yuan's words, Kani, Jin Chen, and the others immediately restrained their auras.
Liu Yao reminded him, "Lord, if a faerie appears here, it will definitely attract the attention of the Faerie Institution. The Faerie Institution has always been unyielding, forbidding any faction from meddling with the faeries. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I believe we should not only conceal our aura but also alter our appearance to mask the aura of our bloodline. Otherwise, if the Faerie Institution bears a grudge, there won't be any good consequences."
Liu Yao showed an exceptional sense of apprehension towards the Faerie School in her words. The Nine-Headed Snakes had once thought of attacking the faeries, but when the plan was exposed, they were ultimately dealt with by the Faerie Institution. A total of three higher faeries from the Faerie Institution came to execute the four Nine-Headed Snake members involved.
The Nine-Headed Snake was also a ruthless species. The reason why they were suppressed by the Faerie Institution was that they were really no match for the Faerie Institution. Fighting head-on would only cause the Nine-Headed Snake to suffer even more losses.
Spring and Winter did not put the Faerie Institution in their eyes. Otherwise, they would not have made such a suggestion to Lin Yuan. As Lin Yuan's followers, Spring and Winter would not allow Lin Yuan to be in danger.
However, Liu Chen didn't say anything about Liu Yao's kind reminder. Instead, Liu Chen felt that Liu Yao had misspoken. Her reminder inevitably gave the impression that she was doubting Lin Yuan's abilities.
Liu Chen quickly stepped in to help Liu Yao speak, "Lord Lin Yuan, our Nine-Headed Snake was once besieged by the Faerie Institution. The reason was that our Nine-Headed Snake fought for an intermediate faerie, causing it to fail in its evolution and injure its roots. In my opinion, although our Nine-Headed Snake is in the wrong, we really can't be blamed for this matter in the end. Back then, the Nine-Headed Snake wasn't the only faction that went to fight for this intermediate faerie. It was the collective effort of numerous major factions.
"However, the intermediate faerie was too unyielding. If it weren't for that, we wouldn't have faced such serious consequences. After listening to our explanation, the Faerie Institution still punished the four members of the Nine-Headed Snake who were involved. Liu Yao reminded you because she was afraid that the Faerie Institution would consume your unnecessary energy, Lord."
Upon hearing Liu Chen's explanation, Liu Yao also realized her mistake. She hurriedly knelt on one knee in front of Lin Yuan with a terrified expression.
Lin Yuan could not help but be speechless. He did not expect that he would leave such an impression on Liu Chen and Liu Yao. As the leader of a large faction, he believed that his approach to handling matters was certainly not ruthless. While it was true that such an image would help the management of the faction members, Lin Yuan felt that there was no necessity to establish such an image. He did not wish for Sky City's superiors and inferiors to have such a relationship in the future.
Lin Yuan personally stepped forward and helped Liu Yao up as he spoke to her in an extremely serious tone, "You don't have to be so careful with me. All of you have now become my subordinates. From now on, you will join Sky City as Kani and Jin Chen did. As long as you refrain from actions that endanger Sky City and remain loyal to me, I will treat you with equal respect. While it's appropriate to be cold when dealing with those star pirates, but when dealing with my own people, I think you should be able to feel my sincerity."
Upon hearing Lin Yuan's words, not only did Liu Chen and Liu Yao nod, but Kani and Jin Chen also nodded vigorously. They had been by Lin Yuan's side for such a long time that they could naturally sense his sincerity. From the perspective of a superior, Lin Yuan could be considered someone who treated his subordinates the best. Not only did he provide resources to Liu Chen and Liu Yao, but he also provided resources to their children.
Liu Chen and Liu Yao's children would not be of any help to Lin Yuan, yet he chose to provide resources for them. Liu Chen and Liu Yao were aware that this was a gesture of respect towards them.
Jin Chen had only recently become Lin Yuan's subordinate, yet he had already obtained a large number of spirit qi crystals, which he could not have obtained with his own ability alone. Jin Chen could use these spirit qi crystals and vitality to enhance his bloodline without needing to resort to killing his own kind to do so.
Among the four of them, Kani was definitely the one who had benefited the most from Lin Yuan. Kani's bloodline had been successfully enhanced with Lin Yuan's help, and her strength had risen from the pinnacle of the World Emperor/Divine Kingdom to the Holy Spirit level.
Initially, the four of them felt helpless about being under Lin Yuan's control. However, now they all saw being under Lin Yuan's command as a great opportunity for themselves, especially Kani.
The King Blood Jackal could be considered kings in the wilderness of the North of the Lonely River. However, once they ventured into other areas, not only would they not be able to become kings, but they would also face challenges in their survival. Back then, if the King Blood Jackal could thrive in other areas, Kani would not have let them relocate to a godforsaken place like the North of the Lonely River.
As a member of the Sky Radish Endless Vine, Jin Chen possessed an extremely strong upper limit compared to Liu Chen and Liu Yao. This was something Kani could not compare to at all.
Liu Chen, Liu Yao, Kani, and the others all expressed their loyalty to Lin Yuan. At this moment, they felt a sense of belonging to Lin Yuan. It was not easy for the four of them to obtain a sense of belonging.
During Lin Yuan's conversation with them, he didn't delay the journey. After traveling in the direction indicated by Spring and Winter, Liu Chen and Liu Yao's faces showed expressions of astonishment.
At present, Liu Chen and Liu Yao were also able to sense the aura emitted by the intermediate faerie. Apart from its aura, Liu Chen and Liu Yao also sensed a large number of people gathering here. Among them, there was no lack of auras emitted by holy spirit experts. Judging from it, it was evident how many factions had their eyes set on the intermediate faerie.
At this point, Spring and Winter could already confirm that there wasn't a natural landscape that was about to transform into an intermediate faerie. Instead, it was a lower faerie desperately trying to evolve. A lower faerie must have encountered difficulties to be evolving here. Otherwise, there was really no need for a lower faerie to take risks in an unfamiliar environment. Faeries should know very well that their bodies were a huge treasure. They were very careful about their own safety.
Spring and Winter sensed carefully and could confirm that there was only the aura of one faerie here. This meant that no members of the Faerie Institution were present.
Spring and Winter exchanged glances, and from the expressions in their eyes, they could confirm that they had made the same assumptions. Winter said to Lin Yuan, "Young Master, the people from the Faerie Institution haven't arrived here yet. The Faerie Institution has the means to detect the location of the faeries. It is a method closely related to bloodlines that can't be concealed. The Faerie Institution's headquarters is in the West Universe, but there are also Faerie Institution factions scattered in the East Universe. I suggest that we take this faerie away before the Faerie Institution arrives. As long as we can take this faerie away without anyone knowing, we can push the blame to the other factions present!"
