2586 Chu Ci’s Real Training!
But the Moon Empress would not have the desire to accept him as her disciple.
Lin Yuan hurriedly said, “Master, I do have something very important to tell you! This matter not only involves the life and death of the Radiance Federation but the entire main world as well!”
The Moon Empress’s eyes widened.
Lin Yuan always preferred to be casual. Even when a matter was very serious, he would speak of it relaxedly because he did not want her to worry.
Even when Lin Yuan found himself within the water world dimensional rift before—with all the flesh stripped from his hands, leaving only white bone—he reacted with surprising silence, not uttering a scream even upon waking from the ordeal.
Yet, he had described this matter as being related to the life or death of the main world!
The Moon Empress hurriedly asked, “What happened, Little Yuan? Tell me so I can be prepared!”
The Moon Empress’ approach to issues was to try and find ways to fix them rather than cowering and hiding.
Despite not knowing what this problem was, the Moon Empress was already thinking of ways to address it!
She started to make guesses. She believed that it was likely that Lin Yuan had obtained information from Eighth Page Apoptosis.
If he had obtained information related to the world on the other side of the Barren Sea, he would have told her about it immediately after returning to the Radiance Federation.
Lin Yuan took a deep breath and said grimly, “There are two dimensions to the Sleeper’s Revival plan. We only guessed the hidden dimension but didn’t think of the obvious one! According to Eighth Page Apoptosis, the Sleeper’s Revival plan involves Tower Canon tapping into ley lines to revive every lifeform that has ever died in the main world.”
Lin Yuan told the Moon Empress everything that Eighth Page Apoptosis had told him.
The Moon Empress’ expression became stormy, and a lethal aura rose around her. She forcefully slammed a hand down on the soft table before her.
“Tower Canon needs to be exterminated! Little Yuan, I am going to hold an imperial meeting now to tell the other members of royalty about this. Then, I’ll invite the royalty from other federations here so we can begin establishing the Major Federation Union. This will allow us to put up a fight against the Sleeper’s Revival plan!”
The Moon Empress was well aware of how defenseless the smaller federations were.
Luckily, they had managed to find out about the situation in advance. Once they told the other federations about this, they would be able to stand a chance.
Whether it was the royalty from other federations bringing their troops to the Radiance Federation for a joint attack, or if they opted to stay put and ready themselves for war, they’d receive the chance to decide and make preparations. At the very least, they wouldn’t be taken by surprise, left with no option but to be engulfed in the catastrophe when it hit.
This would also give them the time to stock up on rations. It would be better if they were killed by the dead rather than die of starvation!
Lin Yuan nodded solemnly.
With the Moon Empress here to make the preparations, he would not have to worry!
Lin Yuan had other more important things to do. He needed to fuse the remaining tomes. He also needed to search for the Continent Vein Cores. All of these would add to the weapons in his arsenal and be of help when he took on the true Eight Pages of Tower Canon.
The Moon Empress was also aware of this. She gently patted Lin Yuan’s shoulder. “Little Yuan, go and do what you need to do. Don’t worry about having to take on Tower Canon.”
When the Moon Empress was done speaking, she left the Radiant Moon Palace and headed off to hold another imperial meeting.
…
Lin Yuan immediately returned to the Grotto Continent. He once again had to endure the accompanying dizziness and nausea.
Chu Ci had been waiting on the other side of the Space Tunnel, aware that Wen Yu was occupied with her tasks. In this situation, Chu Ci believed that she might not be helpful and could even be a distraction for Wen Yu.
However, Chu Ci’s concern was mainly directed toward Lin Yuan. With nothing demanding her attention in the Grotto Continent, she decided to wait for Lin Yuan’s return.
Once Lin Yuan arrived, he sat down on the ground and began vomiting.
Chu Ci anxiously squatted next to him and patted his back. Her heart ached for him. She had not seen him in such a weak state for a very long time.
The last time that she saw him this week, he was still not a spirit qi professional.
When she saw that he had recovered considerably, she helped him up and asked with concern, “Big Brother, what happened to you?”
Chu Ci had a basic grasp of spatial teleportation and had even ventured to the abyssal world to explore the mirrored cities.
Although she had experienced slight discomfort, it quickly faded within seconds.
However, she lacked any experience in teleporting over long distances within the main world.
Her fear stemmed from the possibility of Lin Yuan’s health being compromised and the possibility he was concealing it from her.
Back when Lin Yuan managed the fey store, he intentionally withheld information to spare her needless worry.
When Lin Yuan heard Chu Ci call him ‘Big Brother’, he hurriedly smiled and said, “How could there be anything wrong with my body? This only happened because I teleported across too far of a distance! You were in the precious instrument the previous time I did it, so you couldn’t see. But I had just as bad of a reaction.”
Chu Ci still did not believe him and said, “Big Brother, you must tell me if there are any problems. Don’t shoulder everything on your own!”
Lin Yuan patted down her stray hair and said, “If there were any issues with my body, Master would never have let me come out on my own! Don’t worry. You are my only sister. I will definitely let you know if there are any problems with my body.”
Chu Ci thought about how the Moon Empress treated Lin Yuan and finally believed what he was saying.
A thought struck her, and she said with a hint of lingering fear, “Lin Yuan, we have taken full control of the city. Dazzling Silver and Bei Xu have even gone up to the surface.”
Chu Ci had only gone out to train and sharpen her combat skills. She always had Cold Moon by her side. Although she occasionally got hurt, she was never in any real danger.
She thought that that was the kind of training that spirit qi professionals needed to experience. But after all that she had gone through, her perspective had changed.
Perhaps true training came from Lin Yuan bringing her to the Grotto Continent. All that she had seen in the Grotto Continent opened her eyes to just how cruel the world was.
