Chapter 1226: Lay Down the Terms
This fortune had descended on Lin Yuan and the rest of the people who were part of the Return from Faraway Mansion’s family.
Ji Feng had watched his family die a decade ago and had been alone when he met Lin Yuan.
After interacting with the rest of the people from the Return from Faraway Mansion, Ji Feng naturally came to see the Return from Faraway Mansion as his home.
Lin Yuan gazed at Ji Feng silently as Ji Feng had just given him too much information at once.
Since Ji Feng was willing to ignore the risks of injuring his soul in order to express his kins.h.i.+p, Lin Yuan would not treat his intentions lightly.
Moreover, Ji Feng used to be the Young Leader of Whale Ocean Commerce and knew where to draw the line when he conducted himself.
Lin Yuan intended to be on full alert from now on in preparation to receive the fortune and ensure that the fortune did not slip away.
Ji Feng immediately returned to the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce after he reported his news to Lin Yuan.
As the expert that was a.s.signed to the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce, Ji Feng could not leave it unguarded for too long.
Lin Yuan returned Genius to the Spirit Lock spatial zone so it could divide the Soldier Ration Radishes. Next, he walked to the third floor and knocked on Wen Yu’s door.
Wen Yu was a light sleeper, so her eyes snapped open when Lin Yuan knocked on her door twice.
After she opened the door, Lin Yuan noticed that she was sporting an intense bedhead. However, her eyes were clear and energetic.

Wen Yu opened the door wider and said, “Young Master, come in and wait. I will start the parliamentary meeting once I wash up.”
Lin Yuan strode into Wen Yu’s room.
The Return from Faraway’s construction had been completed some time ago, and Wen Yu often sent clothes to Lin Yuan’s room as well as discussed the events of the Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting there together.
...
However, this was the first time that Lin Yuan entered Wen Yu’s room. In fact, this was the first time he was entering the room of a girl that was not Chu Ci’s room.
He sat down on a chair, and Wen Yu entered the washroom to clean herself up.
As Lin Yuan listened to the sounds of water, he took in the interior design of Wen Yu’s room.
He noticed that her room was decorated in a style that vastly differed from her fas.h.i.+on designs.
The spirit qi clothes she designed were elegant, and she used the elaborate palace-style cut on all her pieces.
As such, the spirit qi clothes that Lin Yuan wore on a day-to-day basis appeared simple, but the embroidery on them carried an opulent air.
In contrast, Wen Yu’s room was minimalistic as there were no other decorations in it besides a bed, two chairs, and a large table.
Even Lin Yuan had placed some jade-textured wooden carvings that Hu Quan made in his room.
From the moment he entered the room, Lin Yuan could smell a faint sweetness. This sweetness was of different flora and fauna and had a soft freshness about it.
If Lin Yuan had not gained peak smelling abilities after all the impurities in his body were cleansed, he might have missed this almost non-existent fragrance.
Wen Yu had walked out of the washroom with her eyebrows tightly furrowed. It was clear that she had a question she was struggling with.
She took two steps forward and asked Lin Yuan seriously, “Young Master, what are your plans for recruiting Su Yiren during this parliamentary meeting?”
Lin Yuan did not find this question strange.
After the last Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting, Wen Yu had done a thorough investigation on Su Yiren and was well aware of Su Yiren’s value.
However, Lin Yuan felt that Wen Yu was being overly worried and that she was thinking about Su Yiren’s recruitment more than Lin Yuan was.
After seven days of grappling with her excruciating reality, Su Yiren should have been racking her brains to come up with a way to join the Astronomical Parliament.
A moment of silence later, Lin Yuan told Wen Yu about his plans for recruiting Su Yiren.
“We don’t need to make any preparations for Su Yiren. If she joins this Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting, we’ll need to lay down the terms with her. She’s currently in the Divine Wood Federation, and I’m bound to meet her when I’m training in the Divine Wood Federation. Once I meet with her, I’ll have to heal her soul injury and her near-dead sacred source lifeform. She’ll be of no use to us if she can’t even summon feys.
“But now, her head is filled with thoughts of revenge. We’ll need to change her mindset during this Astronomical Parliament’s parliamentary meeting. The parliamentary meeting requires both parties to be agreeable to collaborate. One side can’t be bent on revenge.”
Wen Yu immediately understood what Lin Yuan meant and what his plans were for Su Yiren.
It seemed that Lin Yuan was going to devour Su Yiren.
After listening to what Lin Yuan said, Wen Yu’s misunderstanding had been cleared.
Upon finding out that Su Yiren was a Dark Envoy, she had placed a high value on Su Yiren. But what she valued was Su Yiren’s ident.i.ty and not her abilities.
Now, Wen Yu realized that Su Yiren’s abilities were far more important than her ident.i.ty as a Dark Envoy.
Lin Yuan also valued Su Yiren’s abilities, which was why he wanted to lay down the terms with her.
From this, Wen Yu could tell that Lin Yuan had far more foresight than her.
Wen Yu truly enjoyed this feeling of constantly progressing that she experienced at Lin Yuan’s side.
Lin Yuan and Wen Yu entered the training room and used the ritual to activate the Astronomical Parliament.
A banquet of stars erupted once again.
When Lin Yuan and Wen Yu sat down on the Leo throne and Libra throne, he realized that four figures were already neatly seated on the north-south constellation seats.
Yin Lin was seated on the Andromeda seat, Bei Xu on the Perseus seat, Ta Lei on the Leo Minor seat, and Su Yiren on the Corona Australis seat.
Ta Lei had formed a contract with the Leo Minor seat without hesitation during the last Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting and was now an official member.
However, Su Yiren had hesitated and had doubts about the Astronomical Parliament. As such, she had not formed a contract with the Corona Australis seat.
When Su Yiren saw Lin Yuan and Wen Yu, she immediately readied herself to form a contract with the Corona Australis seat.
