The ear-splitting scream made Su Yiren frown.
Before Su Yiren could stand up, the person who screamed kicked and spat at her as he said, “Don’t scare me! You homeless drifter, don’t sleep on the streets. If I see you here again, I’ll break your legs! Get lost! Get lost now! You’re getting in the way of me cleaning up.”
$u Yiren hurriedly jumped to her feet and slunk off into an alley under the watchful gaze of the man holding the broom.
This was not the first time that a cleaner had berated Su Yiren for sleeping on the streets of the Divine Wood Federation.
‘There was a caste system in the Divine Wood Federation, and the stoning of a drifter like her would only be seen as a form of entertainment.
However, she could only silently endure it.
$u Yiren felt that all her injuries had been healed, including her hidden injuries.
Besides her soul, her body was now as healthy as it could be.
Su Yiren lowered her head and mulled over the decision she had made a minute ago.
She did not regret that decision at all because that man wrapped in a thousand willpowers had said that there was always hope as long as one was alive.
Although she had nothing, she planned on taking a gamble. She wanted to see if joining the Astronomical Parliament could give her and the Dark Federation a future.
Su Yiren remembered what that person said right before her soul returned to her body, “Go to sleep at this time in a week, and you’ll be able to return here.”
Just like Su Yiren, Ta Leis soul had just returned to his body when he felt something hot splashed on his body.
Ta Lei shivered and opened his eyes to see his mother looking at him with tears brimming in her eyes.
His father, grandfather, grandmother, and brother were also sitting by his bedside with watery eyes.
‘When he saw how angry his father was becoming, Ta Lei saw the Silver X Tunneling Mole climb up his grandfather’s shoulder.
The Tunneling Mole’s fur had turned dark brown, and elemental energy was swirling around it.
This meant that the elemental energy stored in the Tunneling Mole had reached its peak.
The Tunneling Mole should have been able to evolve to Gold grade, but it had been prevented from doing so by Ta Lei’s grandfather’s illness.
From the knowledge in Ta Lei’s mind, he immediately came up with a possible reason.
He hurriedly said to his grandfather, “Grandfather, your Tunneling Mole hasn’t been able to evolve to Gold because you’ve only been supplying it with earth-type elemental energy. You haven’t improved its body at all. Its body can’t combine all the earth-type elemental energy, and a lot of the earth-type
elemental energy has seeped out.
“Grandfather, I remember that you found an Earth Pincushion Flower when you led a hunting group up the mountain. If you feed the Earth Pincushion Flower to the Tunneling Mole, it will probably evolve to Gold grade.”
Everyone in the house was bewildered.
Given their understanding of Ta Lei, he should not possess such knowledge.
Ta Lei’s father looked at him in confusion as he contemplated the true meaning behind Ta Lei’s words.
Ta Leis grandfather’s gaze was stern as he said, “Little Lei, tell me the truth! Are you lying to me so that you won’t have to leave? The Earth Pincushion Flower is tn¢ Horseshoe Tribe’s most precious spiritual ingredient. We’ve wrapped it up along with your other belongings. There’s no need to prove your
words. Just tell me if you’re telling the truth. I’l tell your father to apply for the exam on your behalf if you are. But—”
Before his grandfather could finish speaking, Ta Lei nodded seriously and said, “Grandfather, Big Brother told me everything. I wouldn’t make this request unless I was certain. Trust me, I’ll really be able to become a Class 1 Creation Master. I’ve grown up. I’m a man now, and true men only speak the
truth!”
All of Ta Lei’s family members looked incredulous but hopeful at the same time.
Ta Lei looked up at the constellations in the sky until he found Leo Minor.
He licked his cracked lips and smiled brightly..
