Chapter 903 - It’s About Time to Use It

“Young Master, I’ll form a marrow contract with this sacred source lifeform after I return home. I’ll immediately inform you of its abilities afterward.”

Lin Yuan nodded.

After witnessing Wen Yu’s Astronomical Parliament, Lin Yuan had realized how important a sacred source lifeform’s abilities were for a faction’s expansion.

It would be good if Endless Summer’s sacred source lifeform was a power offense-type like Zong Ze’s sacred source lifeform because it would increase Endless Summer’s strength and battle prowess.

It would also be fine if Endless Summer’s sacred source lifeform was the same type as Wen Yu’s sacred source lifeform.

Such sacred source lifeforms would greatly benefit a faction’s expansion, and they would enable the faction to chart out businesses in different directions.

Mystic Moon did not find it surprising that Lin Yuan had given Endless Summer a sacred source lifeform. After all, Lin Yuan was the Young Lord of the Radiant Moon Palace, and all the resources in the world should be available to him.

Given that Lin Yuan had rushed out in the middle of the Guard Ye Banquet just to save Endless Summer, it showed how important Endless Summer was to him.

However, the silver-haired old woman had a different point of view.

She looked green with envy as she gazed at the sacred source lifeform in Endless Summer’s hands.

Even though she was one of the Elders of the Cage of Brahma Insects, she still did not have a sacred source lifeform of her own.

However, the Moon Empress’ disciple had so casually given a sacred source lifeform to a fey that had just evolved to Creation Breed.

This sacred source lifeform came from a Class 5 dimensional rift.

Every Class 5 dimensional rift only had one sacred source lifeform.

As jealous as the old woman felt, she did not let it get the better of her.

She greatly desired Lin Yuan’s resources and was determined to form a good relationship with Lin Yuan.

She was not intending to form a good relationship with Lin Yuan to gain access to the Moon Empress but purely because of Lin Yuan.

Since Lin Yuan was dressed in the Moonbeam Coronation Costume, he had clearly just rushed over from the Guard Ye Banquet.

The silver-haired old woman decided to ask the Cage of Brahma Insects leader about Lin Yuan’s news from the Guard Ye Banquet.

At that moment, Lin Yuan’s phone rang.

Lin Yuan saw that the call was coming from Gu Lang.

He picked up the call and heard Gu Lang’s austere voice, as though there was something weighing on his heart. “Lin Yuan, the Guard Ye Banquet is over. I’ll have to take a raincheck on the meal at Kitchen Fragrance Palace that we were going to have together. I’m sorry. I’ll find a chance to make it up to you in the future.”

Gu Lang hung up the call.

Lin Yuan frowned. From their short interaction, Lin Yuan had learned that Gu Lang was a very mild-mannered person.

There was no way that Gu Lang would cancel their meal without a good reason.

Could something have happened during the Guard Ye Banquet?

Lin Yuan remembered Wang Fuxiang, who was the doom bringer of men, standing behind the Bamboo Monarch.

At that time, Lin Yuan did not know why Wang Fuxiang and the Bamboo Monarch had been sitting together or why they were dressed like a couple.

Moreover, Lin Yuan had noticed the Bamboo Monarch’s countenance turning more sickly after the Guard Ye Banquet began.

Although the Bamboo Monarch had been maintaining a jovial expression, his face slowly drained of color.

That was when Lin Yuan had realized that the Bamboo Monarch had to have been stained with bad luck after starting a relationship with Wang Fuxiang.

Lin Yuan did not know what kind of bad luck Zong Ze had been afflicted with or what effect it had on Zong Ze.

However, Wang Fuxiang’s bad luck could take a man’s life.

While Lin Yuan was thinking, his phone rang again.

Lin Yuan had just been thinking of Zong Ze when the latter called.

He picked up the call and heard Zong Ze cough and say, “Lin Yuan, something happened to Lord Bamboo Monarch at the Guard Ye Banquet. Gu Lang went back with Lord Bamboo Monarch to the Purple Bamboo Forest. Master and I are going to the Purple Bamboo Forest tomorrow to visit Lord Bamboo Monarch. Our meal will have to be postponed.”

Zong Ze apologized softly before going on to ramble, “If you find my cooking nice after having a taste, I can make meals and deliver them to you whenever you want.”

Zong Ze had said the last line so incoherently that Lin Yuan had not heard him clearly.

Just as Lin Yuan was about to ask Zong Ze to repeat what he said, Zong Ze let out a howl of pain as though someone had just hit him.

“Senior Brother, can you not hit my head whenever you please? I’m not a child anymore.”

A familiar voice took over the call and said, “Hehehe, so what if I hit your head once in a while? I even changed your diapers when you were a baby! Since you’re already on the phone with Little Yuan, it saves me the trouble of calling him myself.”

Lin Yuan immediately recognized Uncle Li’s voice. Apparently, Uncle Li was Chef Supreme’s first disciple.

When he recalled the rumors about Chef Supreme’s first disciple, Lin Yuan felt that it greatly differed from his personal experience of Uncle Li as an honest and wife-fearing man.

“Little Yuan, the fight between you and Zong Ze was amazing! When I get back from the Purple Bamboo Forest, I’ll cook red braised meat for you. It’ll be a good chance for Auntie Zhang and me to see where you’re living and whether Chu Ci is as stick-thin as before.”

A current of warmth flooded Lin Yuan’s heart as he replied, “No problem. You and Auntie Zhang are welcome at my place anytime!”

Uncle Li grinned and said, “It’s settled. Auntie Zhang and I will visit you and Chu Ci when we have more time. I even wanted the old man—”

Suddenly, Lin Yuan noticed the call was cut off.

It seemed that Uncle Li had ended the call.

Lin Yuan could not help but be curious as he did not understand why Uncle Li had ended the call in such a rush.

Meanwhile…

Li Changlin felt someone kick his backside forcefully and snatch the phone out of his hands. He looked back and saw that his assailant was Chef Supreme.

Chef Supreme snapped angrily at Li Changlin, “At your age, shouldn’t you already be aware of what to say and what not to say?”

If Li Changlin had finished what he wanted to say, the person on the other end of the phone would have assumed that Chef Supreme wanted to steal the Moon Empress’ disciple.

From the way that the Moon Empress adored her disciple, she would definitely cause trouble for Chef Supreme in future imperial court meetings if she found out.

The more he thought about it, the angrier Chef Supreme became, to the point that he wanted to kick Li Changlin to vent his anger. When he lifted his leg, his daughter pressed his leg back down.

When he saw his daughter’s angry gaze, Chef Supreme chuckled and thought, Daughters really sever themselves from their maiden family the moment they get married.

Chef Supreme sighed. It seemed like the Bamboo Monarch, and Wang Fuxiang’s short-lived tragic fate was about to come to an end.

Regardless, Bamboo Monarch was a Class 5 Creation Master and should not die at the hands of a woman.

…

The silver-haired old woman had been listening while Lin Yuan was talking on the phone.

When she heard him mention Uncle Li and Auntie Zhang, the gears in her brain started to turn.

A couple with the surname Li and Zhang could only be that pair from Kitchen Fragrance Palace.

At that moment, the way the old woman looked at Lin Yuan changed.

She did not expect the Moon Empress’ disciple to be so well connected.

Lin Yuan still had not interacted with the old woman any further. Instead, he turned to Endless Summer and the Mother of Bloodbath and said, “The both of you should return to the mansion.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Next, Lin Yuan said to Mystic Moon, “Uncle Mystic, let’s return to the Radiant Moon Palace. The Guard Ye Banquet is already over, and Master must be anxious over my prolonged absence.”

From the call, it seemed that Chef Supreme was going to take his disciples to the Purple Bamboo Forest to visit the Bamboo Monarch.

Lin Yuan did not know whether the Moon Empress was going to take him to the Purple Bamboo Forest as well, but he felt that the Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds pollen that he had accidentally produced would finally come into use..
