Chapter 1019: Su Yiren
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Su Yiren bit her lip forcefully. Ever since she had arrived at the Divine Wood Federation, her Absolute Love Poppy’s injury had resulted in her soul becoming grievously wounded as well. This also caused all her other feys to become unusable.
Previously, its soul injury used to flare up five times daily. But now, it was once every hour.
Although Su Yiren used to be one of the Seven States of Darkness’ Dark Envoys, she could not help but yearn for death during each of the flare-ups.
But when she thought about all the people that had risked their lives for hers and how she was the hope of the Dark Federation, she gnashed her teeth and pushed on.
Unless she was left with no choice besides death, she would continue living as she tried to come up with a way to restore the Dark Federation and retrieve it from the clutches of the d.a.m.ned Seventh Page War.
Suddenly, helplessness overwhelmed her.
She was living like a beggar in the Divine Wood Federation as her soul injury prevented her from taking on any job.
All she could do was wait until all the night market stores closed so that she could scrounge for fruit sc.r.a.ps.
At that moment, Su Yiren suddenly heard the clattering noises of an approaching fey carriage.
Plant-type and insect-species feys were abundant in the Divine Wood Federation, while beast-type feys were rare.
As such, the elite of the Divine Wood Federation all sought after spirit qi clothes made of animal skin.
This was the exact opposite situation from the Iron Hammer Federation.
The Divine Wood Federation and Iron Hammer Federation had been tangled in a war and were always clas.h.i.+ng against each other.
Both federations continued to a.s.sa.s.sinate the other’s Creation Masters.
After all the bloodshed, there was almost no import and export of resources between the two federations.
Su Yiren knew that it was probably a member of the Divine Wood Federation’s elite that was pa.s.sing.
However, she was in too much pain to move out of the way.
Given her previous status, she would have regarded these low-level elites as mere insects.
Previously, even thearch-cla.s.s experts only had the right to become her guards.
Unfortunately, she was a completely different person now and felt as though she had just received two serious blows.
Su Yiren did not know if the driver of the fey carriage had whipped her or if she had been kicked by the feys pulling the fey carriage.
The excruciating pain from her soul made all other kinds of pain pale in comparison.
It was only when blood started to rise out of her throat that she realized that her body was injured. Regardless, she did not know if her organs were damaged or crushed.
In her dizzied state of agony, she saw a young version of herself that could conquer the world using just her looks.
Su Yiren felt her consciousness dim, and a smile of bitter indignance spread across her face.
With both her physical and soul injuries, Su Yiren was sure that she would not be able to live past that night.
It was likely that her cold corpse would be cleaned up by some disdainful person the next morning.
The ever-confident Su Yiren seemed to hear Death calling her, and she thought to herself, If I can take back the Dark Continent… No, if I can survive, I’ll give anything in return.
…
Lin Yuan beamed when he heard Wen Yu say that she could take two more members in the Astronomical Parliament.
He was happy that her spiritual energy had increased and because the Astronomical Parliament’s reach would extend further.
The Astronomical Parliament allowed Lin Yuan, Wen Yu, or any other person seated on one of the 12 zodiac constellation seats to be able to become a system.
Meanwhile, those seated on the north-south constellation seats were the MCs in the system.
The Astronomical Parliament would be able to form contracts of loyalty with the people seated on the north-south constellation seats.
The people seated on the 12 zodiac constellation seats needed to have the ability to fulfill the one wish of those that were willing to give up everything.
Yin Lin and Bei Xu had established branches of Sky City in the Azure Federation and Grotto Continent because Lin Yuan had instructed them to do so.
Hence, Lin Yuan was looking forward to the two new members of the Astronomical Parliament.
“Young Master, I didn’t have any experience the first time I used the Astronomical Parliament to choose members. Actually, many people in the world were willing to give up everything for their one wish. All of them are eligible to be called to the Astronomical Parliament’s parliamentary meeting. Thus, this time, if you deem anyone unsuitable, we can kick them out immediately and swap someone else in.”
Lin Yuan blinked. Somehow, the Astronomical Parliament’s member selection sounded like an interview.
However, Lin Yuan felt that the Astronomical Parliament’s ability was amazing.
Otherwise, they might end up stuck with people with shallow wishes that Lin Yuan did not want to fulfill even if he could.
Wen Yu returned to her room to eat Angelfish of Bliss fish coats and make some preparations for the next Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting.
Lin Yuan was bored and walked to the mountain at the back to check on the construction of the bas.e.m.e.nt.
Under Hu Quan’s leaders.h.i.+p, the 400 Cla.s.s 3 and 4 Spirit Craftsmen were almost done with the general construction of the bas.e.m.e.nt, and they were moving on to the detailed portions.
If Hu Quan wanted to make the bas.e.m.e.nt into an underground palace, all the drawings on the carvings had to undergo bluing.
This would take at least six months to complete.
Nonetheless, the bas.e.m.e.nt was already usable in its current state.
When Lin Yuan walked out of the bas.e.m.e.nt after checking on its construction, he happened to spot Hu Quan.
