Chapter 2812 The Mother of Bloodbath Returns!
Duan He was one of the first white-clothed followers to join Lin Yuan.
Initially, Duan He had been stronger than Lin Yuan. At the time of joining, he was already an emperor-cla.s.s expert.
On the other hand, Zhou Luo had fought side by side with Lin Yuan and Liu Jie in the evolving Cla.s.s 3 water world dimensional rift. The three of them had braved death together. Hence, Lin Yuan trusted Zhou Luo implicitly.
Duan He and Zhou Luo worked under Sky City and eventually became friends. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were sworn friends.
Zhou Luo did not have any family and had been staying with Duan He.
Duan He had always been family-oriented. He never forgot to bid farewell to his family before going on any missions.
But this time, the farewell would be forever.
When Duan He went to the Sky Beyond the Clouds, he would no longer be able to see his family.
Duan He was full of woe, but his family had no clue.
After Duan He left the Duan residence, Zhou Luo told him, "Old Duan, can you really bear to do this? I think that, regardless of anything else, you should tell your family the truth instead of lying about going out on a mission! Who knows when we"ll return from this journey?"
Duan He took a deep breath before responding candidly. "I am reluctant to do this, but who can bear such a goodbye? All I know is one thing. The Duan family"s current position and development are solely due to the Young Master. Because of his power, I have reached the Divine Kingdom level, a level I never imagined attaining.
"Normally, we should be using the resources we earn to increase our strength. But in actuality, all the resources we use to increase our strength come from the Young Master. All the resources I earned went to elevating the Duan family.
"At present, there are six thearch-cla.s.s Duan experts. Two of them have reached Immortal. The Duan family is now one of the strongest factions in Soaring Dragon City. Rather than saying that it"s a result of my effort, it"s more accurate to say that all credit goes to the Young Master"s generosity. As such, I have to embark on this new journey with the Young Master.
"My reluctance is irrelevant. Once I"m gone, there will be others to tell them the truth. I just don"t want to say goodbye face-to-face."
Zhou Luo nodded. It was just as Duan He said.
If any white-clothed follower had a family, they would have bright futures ahead of them.
It was true that all of this came from Lin Yuan.
It was likely that the other white-clothed followers felt the same way.
If Duan He had not joined Sky City, he would never have been able to enable the Duan family to develop to such an extent.
But, as opposed to Duan He, Zhou Luo liked his current situation.
He was alone and did not have many ties. All he needed to do was remain loyal to Sky City. He was the definition of being light-footed because he did not have love weighing him down.
-
The day before they were due to set off, a crown-wearing spider that resembled a red gem discreetly crawled into Lin Yuan"s hair.
Presently, Lin Yuan was only a step away from reaching the Divine Kingdom level.
Although Blood Love had already reached World Emperor/Divine Kingdom, Lin Yuan could still sense her presence.
Blood Love had eventually come to him.
At first, Blood Love had intended to go with Lin Yuan to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
At that time, Blood Love had it all planned out. Her parents, Blood New Moon and Jade Sundial, would accompany her to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
However, reality did not play out as so.
Blood New Moon and Jade Sundial had no intention of going to the Sky Beyond the Clouds. Instead, they would stay back in the main world.
All of the ties the two of them had were in the main world. Moreover, as leaders of the Heavenly Family Cottage, the two of them had their own responsibilities.
Blood Love had always craved for a family.
Lin Yuan had realized this soon after he became acquainted with Blood Love.
Hence, Lin Yuan had sent Blood Love to the Heavenly Family Cottage to live for a period so she could think things through carefully and seriously. Would she really go with Lin Yuan to the Sky Beyond the Clouds or stay in the main world to become one of the Heavenly Family Cottage"s leaders and enjoy the experience of being part of a family?
Now, Blood Love that was hidden in his hair had just shown Lin Yuan the decision she had made.
Lin Yuan"s lips curled into a smile as he said, "My Path Protector, you will be in charge of my safety once we get to the Sky Beyond the Clouds!"
When Blood Love heard that, she realized that Lin Yuan had seen through her attempt at being stealthy.
She changed into human form and appeared next to Lin Yuan.
"Lin Yuan, don"t think I"m not aware that there are many people in your camp who are stronger than me. How could it ever be my job to protect you? I decided to go with you to the Sky Beyond the Clouds because I"m worried that leaving me behind will make you too sad."
Blood Love poured out a cup of water for herself, her gaze never leaving Lin Yuan.
Blood Love was usually a pillar of ice and never smiled at anyone. She only offered Endless Summer the occasional warm gestures.
But after spending the past few years basked in the love of her family, Blood Love"s personality had changed drastically. All members of the Heavenly Family Cottage loved her. Hence, it was inevitable that Blood Love would become rather arrogant.
This was one of the times when Blood Love was acting arrogantly.
Blood Love had not said everything that she was thinking.
Truthfully, rather than being afraid that Lin Yuan would be sad and missing her, Blood Love was more afraid of being without Lin Yuan.
Time had cemented Blood Love"s awareness of her feelings toward Lin Yuan.
There was no greater bliss than being together with one"s companion and supporting each other through the ages.
Lin Yuan took out a bracelet-shaped Diamond fey storage box and told Blood Love, "I was not sure if you were coming, but I made preparations for you.
"There are a few spiritual ingredients that came from sacred source lifeforms in this spatial equipment. It is larger than regular Diamond fey storage boxes. It has all sorts of treats to ensure that you"ll be kept satisfied in the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
"I heard from Spring that the Sky Beyond the Clouds" species place a high priority on food so the standard of food there is rather high. You might become interested in the delicacies of some species!"
Blood Love gleefully received the bracelet-shaped Diamond fey storage box.
From this, she could see how much Lin Yuan cared for her.
He had made ample preparations despite being uncertain if she would also head to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
Without waiting any longer, the gourmet and glutton Blood Love took a look at what food was in the spatial equipment.
At that point, Lin Yuan said, "I have already spoken to Endless Summer. If you chose to go with me to the Sky Beyond the Clouds, Endless Summer would come with me. But if you decided not to go, Endless Summer would stay in the main world. Since you"ve decided to come with me, I will notify Endless Summer."
Blood Love was once again touched by Lin Yuan.
Her parents might not be aware of her relations.h.i.+p with Endless Summer, but Lin Yuan was definitely aware. Lin Yuan knew just how important Endless Summer was to Blood Love.
Endless Summer had been her steadfast companion over the years. They had survived the cruelty of the forest and worked together to increase their strength.
This was a relations.h.i.+p that could not easily be described with words.
The two of them had saved each other countless times.
Endless Summer had great talent for internal governance. Listen would praise her when they managed the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce together.
Subsequently, Endless Summer and Wen Yu managed the private faction territories on Star Web together. When Wen Yu became busy, Endless Summer had also been able to pick up the slack and hold down the fort on her own.
Lin Yuan had always needed such internal governance talents, but it was not easy to nurture such individuals.
In spite of all the years that had pa.s.sed, there was still no one who could replace Endless Summer.
She had heard that Endless Summer had also reached World Emperor/Divine Kingdom and gained an impressive divine kingdom ability.
Yet, Lin Yuan would have been willing to leave Endless Summer by Blood Love"s side because he knew of their relations.h.i.+p.
Lin Yuan had increased Blood Love"s power all the way to pinnacle spirit fire.
When Blood Love reached pinnacle spirit fire, her bloodline showed signs of evolving. Hence, it would be best to wait for her bloodline to stabilize before continuing to increase her power.
Lin Yuan had given Blood Love numerous resources and sent Summer to watch over Blood Love. Hence, he still did not know about the divine kingdom ability she had gained.
Blood Love believed that her divine kingdom ability would be of considerable help to Lin Yuan.
Blood Love said with a straight face, "Lin Yuan, I"ll go and see Sister Summer myself! I know that your eyes are magical and can see through a lifeform"s abilities and exclusive skills. Can you see my divine kingdom ability?"
Lin Yuan smiled. He had not expected Blood Love to test him!
It was child"s play for him to check Blood Love"s divine kingdom ability.
Lin Yuan used True Data to check on Blood Love.

Abilities:
[Execution Sting]: Blood and light energy will be injected into the target through the eight sharp chelicerae to control their blood while simultaneously purifying them.
[Eyes of Senluo]: The spider eyes look directly at the core of the blood inside the target and antic.i.p.ate the target"s next movements based on the blood flow. At the same time, the spider eyes can look through the target to a certain extent.
[Funeral of Light]: After killing a target with a strong enough soul, the target"s soul can be momentarily controlled by light energy. Once the light dries up with soul energy, the target can become a temporarily controllable zombie.
[Spider Form Attachment]: Condense its own blood energy into a blood core that can overload attacks from the outside world. When the spider core is shattered, the light energy within can restrain a target.
[Blood Control]: Call down belts of sunlight from the sun to restrain and attack targets while activating the blood energy in the target"s body. The flow of fresh blood in the target"s body can be momentarily controlled.
[Hug of Dawn"s Light]: Take in energy from the sun and swallow it to temporarily increase its power. The light energy can also be used to slowly heal injuries.
[Sun Light Drapery]: Activate the stored energy in the body during combat. A jade sundial with the carving of a sun on it will appear behind the Mother of Bloodbath. Every time the energy in its body is used, half of the energy will be taken from the sun. The jade sundial will defend against damage caused by the outside world.
[Hanging Sun Net]: With the sun at the center, its energy will be used up to activate the sun"s energy. The energy from both ent.i.ties will form a net. The target trapped in the sun net will be restrained temporarily before being released to the surface of the sun.

[Beautiful Day Condensed Essence]:
Exclusive Skills:
[Desire Spider Form]: Increase its affinity for light energy so that the body will not reject excessive light energy but will transform it into hair that can store the light energy. After the devoured light energy tempers inside the body, light energy can be absorbed directly into the body.
[Concealed Spider Shadow]: Stop the flow of its own blood energy, conceal its aura, and transform it into the form of "nothing". It can then use the sun as its eyes to survey the surrounding environment.
[External Blood Bone]: The chelicerae will be fused into other young feys" bodies so they can become its blood bones. The strength of the external blood bone cannot be higher than the strength of the target being pierced. The dark-type curses or negative soul-type effects of the target can be purified.
[Rich Light Trial]: When causing damage to a target, the target will also be injected with light elements that will have a deadly purging effect.
[Sundial Sage]: Its bloodline will be used to change other spider-species lifeforms. All spider-species fey, aside from dark-type ones, will be protected by the sun. When these spider-species feys provide it with faith power, its bloodline power will be extraordinarily boosted.
[Application Support]: It will be applied to other lifeforms, and its energy will support the target"s attacks and defenses. Its support will not affect the application abilities of other lifeforms. After the application, the target will gain its bloodline and will be boosted by celestial bodies.
Divine Kingdom Abilities:
[Day Forging Furnace]: The spiritual ingredients will be absorbed into its body, and the energy from the celestial bodies will temper the spiritual ingredients. The spiritual ingredients will be transformed into precious instruments through the most appropriate techniques. When flesh lifeforms are being tempered, the lifeform"s physique will improve rapidly as long as it is able to handle the energy from the furnace.
