1986 Two Lin Yuans!
From the moment he left the tree castle, Lin Yuan sensed that he was being watched. Moreover, more than one person was watching him.
Previously, what Lin Yuan lacked the most was a sensing ability. But ever since he formed a contract with the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil and it attained the satanic ability Misfortune for All, Lin Yuan could sense the calamity of the surroundings.
This would allow him to sense if there were any lifeforms around him.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6… 18, 19, 20, 21.
There were a total of 21 people watching him.
Hehe! There sure are numerous factions from Sacred Forest City who are targeting Sky Creation!
Lin Yuan had arranged to meet Ding Chengshuo at the Thriving Summer Hotel, the largest hotel in Sacred Forest City.
He had given the Ethereal Jellyfish’s tentacles to Ding Chengshuo.
Ding Chengshuo had placed a tentacle node in his room.
Lin Yuan found a nearby hotel.
Once Lin Yuan entered the hotel, he was immediately warmly received.
The later in the day it became, the more crowded it became in the Divine Wood Federation. The nightlife was much livelier than in the Radiance Federation.
Even in Sacred Forest City, which was the capital of the Divine Wood Federation, the nightlife was filled with debauchery and wickedness.
There were numerous dancer services offered at every hotel.
Lin Yuan’s attire made him a magnet for the hotel staff. The hotel staff all had keen eyes and addressed every person who was dressed lavishly as ‘Lord’.
“Lord, welcome to our humble establishment! We offer many special services! Would you like to order food first or some of these services?”
This attendant shot Lin Yuan a promiscuous gaze as she wondered to herself.
If Lord Chu chooses a special service, I wonder which little thing will get lucky.
Although Lin Yuan was a young man in this world, he was aware of the realities of the world.
“I will be ordering food. I want to book a suite.”
Lin Yuan handed money to the attendant.
Normally, when business was booming, people who only came to dine were not allowed to book private rooms.
But when she saw the 5 Great Lush dollars that Lin Yuan was holding out, the attendant’s eyes immediately lit up.
5 Great Lush dollars was enough for him to book over 20 rounds of fun.
“Lord, I will arrange the best room for you this instant. We will give you five types of specialty dishes for free if it’s just you! I hope they will be to your liking!”
Lin Yuan had not come to dine but to put up a facade.
It did not matter what dishes were served as he was not going to be the one eating them.
Lin Yuan looked at the attendant, who was almost vibrating with excitement over the tip he had given, and said, “Lead the way!”
The attendant excitedly led Lin Yuan into a large suite and personally ordered dishes for him.
Once Lin Yuan entered the suite, he summoned the Death Demon Concubine Beast.
Merciful Soul immediately leaped into Lin Yuan’s arms and started cuddling up to him.
Merciful Soul had used Demon Concubine’s Promise to form a contract with the Lifespan Mouse. Now, their lives were linked.
Lin Yuan was keeping the Lifespan Mouse inside the Spirit Lock spatial zone so it could continuously consume spiritual ingredients that contained vitality to increase its store of lifespan.
Normally, the Suzerain X/Myth I Merciful Soul had a lifespan of around 1,100 years. But thanks to the Lifespan Mouse, its lifespan had broken through this limit to reach 1,400 years.
Merciful Soul’s lifespan had increased so much in just a few days. After a few more days of lifespan accumulation, Merciful Soul would be able to use Steal the Fate of a Nation, Demon Concubine’s Chaos, and Payment in Life freely.
Lin Yuan twirled his finger, and a feather made of Day and Night Spirit Silver appeared in his hand.
He swiped the tip of his finger over the feather, and a drop of blood immediately oozed out.
Lin Yuan held out his finger to Merciful Soul, and it licked the pearl of blood.
Under Lin Yuan’s instruction, it used Faceless Appearance.
Faceless Appearance’s effect was specifying a target and absorbing the target’s blood in order to take on the target’s appearance as well as partially obtain the target’s abilities.
The furry Merciful Soul turned and changed into a copy of Lin Yuan. It was even wearing the same clothes as him.
No one would be able to tell the difference between the transformed Merciful Soul and Lin Yuan based on their exteriors because Faceless Appearance also blocked Merciful Soul’s original aura.
Only Class 5 Creation Masters could tell that there was a discrepancy.
After Merciful Soul used Faceless Appearance to turn into an imitation of Lin Yuan, the latter attached the Faceless Paper to his face. His features were immediately turned down until they became ordinary.
Lin Yuan had used Faceless Paper when he journeyed to Whale Ocean Commerce and had not felt that anything was wrong.
It was only later that Night Leaning Moon told him that he also needed to alter his aura. Otherwise, the mismatching appearance and aura would still catch the attention of others.
The Di family had not caught on at the time because they had already decided to stake their all on one final gamble. Hence, they had not been overly observant of anything else.
After Night Leaning Moon’s reminder, Lin Yuan learned how to retract his aura when he put on Faceless Paper.
After everything ended, Lin Yuan used Node Transportation to send himself into Ding Chengshuo’s room at Thriving Summer Hotel.
When the five dishes ordered by the attendant arrived, Merciful Soul cleaned the plates and left the suite to return to the tree castle to act as his replacement.
When the attendant saw that Lin Yuan was leaving, she immediately walked over to him and said, “Lord, was the food to your liking? I will reserve this suite for you the next time you’re here!”
Merciful Soul’s lip curled when it looked at the attendant as it said, “It wasn’t bad, but the quantity was much too little.”
Merciful Soul followed Lin Yuan’s instruction and returned to the tree castle, leaving the attendant staring dazedly after it.
Before Merciful Soul spoke, the attendant had not felt that anything was wrong. But once it did, the attendant felt as though it had been enveloped in beguilement to the point that her soul had almost been stolen.
