2075 The Moon Empress’ Troubles!
Jin Qianxun decided to tell everything he knew to that faction as per their request.
Jin Qianxun’s report caused Su Yiren’s eyes to widen.
[The Truth Association has several experts beyond Immortal. I hope that you will decide what to do next after understanding the Truth Association’s power. Furthermore, according to the information from the Truth Association’s inner circle, The three largest tribes in the Iron Hammer Federation will join forces to invade the Divine Wood Federation three days later. They will charge directly into the capital, Sacred Forest City. After the invasion, the major secret aristocratic families of the Great Lush Federation will join the battle and form a three-way chaotic war. This is all I know so far. The Truth Association holds absolute power over all of the secret aristocratic families, and the Jin family will also participate. I don’t have a say in the Jin family’s participation, but I hope that the Jin family’s involvement won’t affect your plans.]
What surprised Su Yiren about Jin Qianxun’s news was not that the Truth Association had experts that surpassed Immortal. Su Yiren already knew that the Truth Association had a Class 5 Creation Master. Class 5 Creation Masters were capable of evolving thearch-class experts to Immortal. Su Yiren’s grandmother had also been capable of doing so.
However, Su Yiren had not heard anything like the Iron Hammer Federation was going to invade the Divine Wood Federation three days later.
If it was for food, they could tide over the winter season if they remained at the border and took over some of the Divine Wood Federation’s border cities.
Yet, the Iron Hammer Federation was going to use its resources to supply an invasion. This was no different from charging toward their own deaths.
No matter how useless and unfit to rule Luo Cai was, he would not come up with such a plan.
After Luo Cai became king, he needed to strengthen the Iron Hammer Federation in order to garner respect.
Thus, even if Luo Cai was a complete moron, he would never intentionally harm his own profits.
It seemed that the Truth Association already had a certain amount of control over the Iron Hammer Federation, to the point that Luo Cai was helpless even as king.
Su Yiren knew that she had to tell Lin Yuan about this immediately.
This matter was about a war between two federations, and Su Yiren dared not make a reckless decision on her own.
Thus, Su Yiren hurriedly sent a message to Lin Yuan through the Thoughts Letter Paper.
When Su Yiren sent the letter, Lin Yuan was in the inner palace of the Radiant Moon Palace.
Lin Yuan carried the Moon Empress’ Extreme Token so she was aware that he had returned to the Radiance Federation the moment that he arrived at the basement of the Return from Faraway Mansion.
Thus, she had been waiting for him to come.
The Moon Empress knew that Lin Yuan would come to see her first thing after returning to the Radiance Federation. This was the trust she had in him as his master and a display of their compatibility.
The Moon Empress was always unshakable, as cold and aloof as the moon that hung high in the sky.
But ever since the Moon Empress realized that Lin Yuan had used the Extreme Token, she had been on edge.
She knew that he would only use the Extreme Token if he was in life-threatening danger.
Since she did not have a clear grasp on his secret weapons, she always assumed that the Extreme Token was Lin Yuan’s final safety net.
She took this as an indication of Lin Yuan having encountered a strong enemy in the Divine Wood Federation.
Although Lin Yuan had let the Moon Empress know that he was fine, her troubled heart made her want to see him immediately. This was the only way that she could be set at ease.
When she first accepted Lin Yuan as her disciple, all she wanted was to be a good master.
But after a year together, Lin Yuan was now just as important to the Moon Empress as the Radiance Federation was. Otherwise, she would not have asked Lin Yuan to make the long trip just to set her mind slightly at ease.
To put it bluntly, the Moon Empress was so wracked with anxiousness that she had completely let down her guard.
She would only be able to relax when she saw Lin Yuan standing in front of her.
However, her brow did not fully relax even after Lin Yuan arrived.
This was because the Radiance Federation was about to undergo a strenuous trial.
None of the members of royalty, including the Moon Empress, had a concrete plan to deal with this trial.
Lin Yuan had not seen the Moon Empress in a long time, and he smiled brightly the moment he laid eyes on her.
The past years of experiences allowed Lin Yuan’s aura to become increasingly solemn.
But this smile seemed to return to Lin Yuan all the youthfulness he had lost.
When Lin Yuan noticed that the Moon Empress’ brow was slightly furrowed, he hurriedly asked with concern, “Master, is something troubling you?”
When Lin Yuan had been weak, he would not ask the Moon Empress such a question when he saw her brow furrowed.
But now, he could ask because his power had been growing, and he was now at the stage where he was capable of solving issues and sharing the Moon Empress’ burdens. In certain situations, he could even help the Moon Empress.
The Moon Empress instinctively saw Lin Yuan as a child when she heard what Lin Yuan said. She did not want to pass on her troubles to him.
But then, the Moon Empress started thinking about how Lin Yuan was already stronger than her in some aspects. For example, the Moon Empress could not concoct the pure spirit qi that came from Lin Yuan despite being a Class 6 Creation Master.
The Moon Empress never tried to find out about Lin Yuan’s secret weapons. Rather, she told him to keep them to himself.
The Moon Empress had also encountered the same problem that the elderly man faced.
It was Lin Yuan who helped her and gave her renewed life.
The Moon Empress gently caressed Lin Yuan’s face before she plucked the Extreme Token from around Lin Yuan’s chest and said, “Let me take a good look at you. It’s almost time to eat. Stay for the meal and spend the night in Leaning Moon Mountain. I will tell you about my troubles after the meal. I’ll recharge the Extreme Token for you before you leave tomorrow morning.”
Lin Yuan did not ask what was happening but just nodded.
Since the Moon Empress was willing to be honest with him, it did not matter when she spoke.
Lin Yuan not only saw the Moon Empress as his master but also as his family.
He badly wanted to fix the issues that the Moon Empress was facing.
Lin Yuan had made the decision long ago.
He already knew that the world was not as simple as it seemed. He hoped that he would be able to take his friends, master, and family with him to experience the new world.
Cold Moon was currently training with Chu Ci.
Chu Ci had entered the Redbud Spirit Qi Intermediate Academy but did not spend a lot of time learning in school.
