Chapter 124: Not Even in The Sin Cleansing Pool
The red afterglow in the rosy-tinted sky at the Royal Capital was especially conspicuous. It made the sky look especially tall and vast.
The evening arrived.
Since Lin Yuan had decided to set off and did not intend to live on the Leaning Moon Mountain for a long time, he simply went to the Radiant Moon Palace to bid goodbye to his Master, the Moon Empress.
He then left the pavilion when the Mother of Bloodbath opened its eyes on the roof and jumped onto the leaf-shaped fey storage box on his chest.
It continued to lie motionless as it gained insight into the Law Rune.
When he reached the Radiant Moon Palace’s inner palace, and the Moon Empress saw Lin Yuan come, her eyes lit up as she asked, “You’ve been in seclusion for two months. Have you gained anything?”
Lin Yuan touched the back of his head and smiled brightly, revealing his white teeth and a youthful aura.
“I did gain from this seclusion.”
For Lin Yuan, raising his five feys from Epic to Legend and getting his first Fantasy Breed fey during his seclusion, they were considered huge and important harvests.
Upon hearing that, the Moon Empress nodded with a smile. She had always appreciated Lin Yuan’s character, but she did not expect he would be so hardworking in his cultivation.
Nowadays, few youths would spend over two months in seclusion without going out.
Ever since the Moon Empress had taken Lin Yuan as her disciple, she had not asked him about his progress as a Creation Master and spirit qi professional, besides teaching him the appropriate knowledge. She felt that one should mainly rely on one’s own self-consciousness for cultivation.
On the other hand, she also did not want to pressure him, so she never asked him about it.
Since the Moon Empress had not asked, Lin Yuan had never told her about his progress either.
Regardless of whether he had three Willpower Runes before or the fact that the Jasmine Lily that had evolved into a Fantasy Breed at Bronze, the Moon Empress was his Master. If she asked him about it, he would naturally tell her without hiding anything.
However, she did not ask him about it. As he was an introvert, he would not take the initiative to tell her.
Lin Yuan knew his own capabilities. These were his means and not something to show off. If other people had Lin Yuan’s skills, they would probably have made it known. He had always been afraid that if he showed himself too much, the saying ‘An outstanding person will attract jealousy and criticism’ would apply in his case.
But now, with the Moon Empress as his Master, Lin Yuan did not need to worry about these. No matter how strong the wind would be, with the Moon Empress, a tall and straight little tree like Lin Yuan would not be affected at all.
Moreover, the Suzerain/Myth Breed Mother of Bloodbath was following him. If anybody dared to do anything to Lin Yuan, they would have to worry about themselves first.
After a few moments of small talk, Lin Yuan told the Moon Empress why he was there.
Upon hearing his words, she raised her hand and handed him a dark-brown beetle-shaped accessory with a pin on the back. It could be worn.
At a glance, Lin Yuan recognized that the beetle-shaped accessory was a Diamond fey storage box. This beetle-shaped fey storage box was dark brown with some dark-green patterns on it and looked strange. It was far from looking as nice as the previous leaf-shaped Diamond fey storage box.
Lin Yuan took this strange beetle-shaped Diamond fey storage box and heard the Moon Empress say, “This Diamond fey storage box contains all the wealth that Cheng Wu had acc.u.mulated over the years as a pinnacle Cla.s.s 4 Creation Master. He had attacked you before, so take the things in this fey storage box as something to help you recover from the shock.”
Lin Yuan looked at the Moon Empress’ deeply concerned gaze and did not reject her. He put away this Diamond beetle-shaped fey storage box. When he was doing so, he took a look at the Diamond fey storage box.
He found that instead of some unknown spiritual ingredients, a huge amount of Radiance dollars was inside.
Lin Yuan had been using the Star Web Card to transfer money, so although he knew what the Radiance dollars looked like, he had never used them.
When he looked inside the Diamond fey storage box, he saw bottle cap-sized Radiance dollars like amber b.u.t.tons piled up like a little mountain.
Lin Yuan was shocked at the sight. He did not know how many Radiance dollars were inside, but the wealth of a pinnacle Cla.s.s 4 Creation Master was really not to be underestimated.
After sitting for a while, when Lin Yuan was ready to bid goodbye, he heard the Moon Empress say softly, “You still have a long road ahead of you, and the world is very vast. It’s up to you to fly to the highest, farthest, and vastest place. Remember, no matter what happens, I will always be your support.”
Upon hearing that, a feeling of being cared for surfaced at the bottom of his heart. Lin Yuan was used to being independent, but this feeling made him cherish it.
After respectfully performing a disciple’s salute, he returned to his pavilion and was prepared to leave first thing in the morning.
He was still thinking about where he should open his store and how much s.p.a.ce to buy. Thanks to Cheng Wu’s wealth in this Diamond fey storage box, Lin Yuan had more options to open his store without worrying about the expenses.
As a Creation Master, although he had great capabilities to make money, he lacked the capital. He could do whatever he wanted now without being restrained now that he had a capital.
...
After Lin Yuan left, Cold Moon went forward and saw that the Moon Empress was watching Lin Yuan leave, so she asked, “Are you worried about Lin Yuan?”
The Moon Empress shook her head and poured a cup of tea before she sipped a mouthful and replied, “I’m not worried. I’m just proud and a little reluctant to see my own disciple wanting to explore the world.”
Upon hearing that, Cold Moon said softly, “Didn’t you exchange all of Cheng Wu’s acc.u.mulated wealth into equivalent Radiance dollars so that he will have the capital to explore the world? You have gone through a lot of trouble.”
The Moon Empress shook her head and did not continue to speak further. After she had taken in a disciple, she then understood the true responsibility as a teacher.
The continuation of life and pa.s.sing down of knowledge were never as simple as through words.
Although they were unrelated by blood, they had reached the degree of kins.h.i.+p through the master-disciple relations.h.i.+p.
At that moment, the sounds of footsteps came from outside. Mystic Moon walked in and bowed before saying, “Moon Empress, Cheng Wu has been suffering in the Sin Cleansing Pool for two months and has just died. The Spirit Guards’ Chief Guard Ye and Iron Prison asked you what they should do next.”
The Moon Empress stood up and was about to go to the breeding room when she answered in a clear, cold voice, “He’s dead, so what is there to be done? Let them handle it by themselves. After my moonlight hit him, he was capable of lasting two months in the Sin Cleansing Pool. How could I let him off when he wanted to harm my disciple? Not even if he’s alive in the Sin Cleansing Pool.”
