Chapter 1440: Sacred Wood Mystic Realm Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Ding Chengshuo carefully observed Lin Yuan and Su Yiren’s expressions when he said that he had reported the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce to the Divine Wood Federation’s imperial court. He assumed that they would look elated when they heard the news. But, he turned out to be wrong. Neither of the two’s expressions changed in the slightest. This meant that the young man and woman couldn’t care less about the Lu family. Apparently, Ding Chengshuo’s plan to be friendly with the young man by throwing the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce under the bus had failed. However, he went on to say, “Once the imperial court conducts a thorough investigation, the Lu family will offer you an appropriate compensation.” Although his attempt at being friendly had failed, he still needed to put on the proper attitude. Su Yiren had asked Lin Yuan about the Lu family, and she knew that Ding Chengshuo was trying to be friendly with Lin Yuan and wanted to test how they felt about the Lu family as this would indicate how powerful they were. “Everyone from the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce’s Oak City is dead, and our grudge with them is settled. If the Lu family comes after us, they will have to be prepared to be wiped off the face of the earth. City Lord Ding, you don’t have to be worried about our grudge with the Lu family,” said Su Yiren. Su Yiren’s tone sounded lazy when she mentioned the Lu family, and Ding Chengshuo’s eyes lit up. Just as Ding Chengshuo was about to try another approach to get close to them, Su Yiren said, “City Lord Ding, our Young Master doesn’t like people who beat around the bush. You can just speak your mind.” Ding Chengshuo’s expression was slightly awkward. He did not expect his attempts at being friendly would be seen as a waste of time. He had come to see Lin Yuan because he had a goal in mind. Currently, Ding Chengshuo’s most pressing matter was the evolution of the Dragon Horns Mysterious Turtle’s bloodline. Although the Dragon Horns Mysterious Turtle did not have dragon horns, it had partial dragon-species fey bloodline. Nonetheless, it was still turtle-species. The turtle-species bloodline was also considered an elite bloodline. Ding Chengshuo was a defense-type spirit qi professional. In terms of defensive abilities, the turtle-species bloodline was stronger than the dragon-species bloodline. Thus, Ding Chengshuo wanted to suppress the turtle-species fey bloodline and unleash the dragon-species fey bloodline while still evolving the turtle-species fey bloodline. This hurdle was too high for a low-class Class 4 Creation Master like Ding Chengshuo to cross. This was not the first time that Ding Chengshuo tried to evolve the turtle-species fey bloodline. But no matter how carefully he studied, he still failed every attempt. This result was a serious burden to the Ding family, and it also allowed Ding Chengshuo to see where his limits were. The easiest way to increase his power would be to depend on a stronger Creation Master. The Sacred Wood Mystic Realm of the Divine Wood Federation would open every 10 years, and it was time to open again in four months. As long as Ding Chengshuo was capable of reaching the top 20 amongst the Divine Wood Federation’s members of parliament, he would be able to enter the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm. No matter what happened, Ding Chengshuo would fight for that opportunity. If he had not coincidentally heard about Lin Yuan from Ding Jian and confirmed that Lin Yuan had a Class 4 and above Creation Master supporting him, he would have gone to Sacred Forest City next month to see if he could offer his loyalty and the Ding family’s resources to convince one of the elite families from Sacred Forest City to evolve the Dragon Horns Mysterious Turtle. He could only obtain a plant-type fey with Sacred Wood bloodline if he became one of the top 20 members of parliament and entered the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm. This was the only way that the Ding family would be able to carve their eternal legacy into the Divine Wood Federation. Ding Chengshuo said tentatively, “Our family has a turtle-species fey whose bloodline’s evolution has reached a key point. I would like to request a trade. If you help me to evolve the turtle-species fey’s bloodline, you can have your pick of whatever the Ding family possesses.” Su Yiren’s expression changed slightly. She grabbed a fruit off the table and took a bite out of it before shaking her sleeve and revealing the pair of Bronze/Epic Item-Storing Walnuts that Lin Yuan had given her. She started to play with the pair of Item-Storing Walnut Trees. Ding Chengshuo’s eyes lit up when he saw Su Yiren playing with the crimson Item-Storing Walnuts. Now, he was sure that he had found the right person. However, he was unsure if the young man wearing black would be interested in anything that the Ding family possessed. When Su Yiren did not reply even after some time, Ding Chengshuo said, “If you’re willing to help me and provide me with a chance to enter the Sacred Forest Mystic Realm, I can lend you the plant-type fey with Sacred Wood bloodline that I will obtain from the mystic realm thrice.” Su Yiren still did not have a big reaction to what Ding Chengshuo said. Rather, Lin Yuan straightened his posture and said, “A plant-type fey with Sacred Wood bloodline?” Lin Yuan’s sudden outburst made it clear that he was interested in the plant-type fey with the Sacred Wood bloodline. Ding Chengshuo said joyously, “The Sacred Wood Mystic Realm will be open in another four months. Frankly, the turtle-species fey I was referring to is my main fey, the Dragon Horns Mysterious Turtle. “The Dragon Horns Mysterious Turtle is currently pinnacle Myth II. It is only one step away from breaking into Myth III. I am only confident of being able to enter the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm if the Dragon Horns Mysterious Turtle reaches Myth III and gains the ability to use Body Weaponization.” 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚 The Dark Continent and Startling Lines Continent were very far from each other. As such, it was no surprise that Su Yiren had no clue what a plant-type fey with the Sacred Wood bloodline was. However, Lin Yuan was from the Radiance Federation, which was very close to the Startling Lines Continent. Additionally, Lin Yuan was the disciple of one of the three Class 5 Creation Masters in the Radiance Federation. When Lin Yuan formed a contract with the fey with the Barren bloodline, the Moon Empress had told Lin Yuan about the Barren Beast Mystic Realm in the Radiance Federation as well as the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm in the Divine Wood Federation. The Sacred Wood Mystic Realm produced plant-type feys with the Sacred Wood bloodline. Although such feys were plants and not as strong as feys with the Barren bloodline, they had equally impressive abilities. Only the Divine Wood Federation had a mystic realm among the three federations in the Startling Lines Continent. This was why the Divine Wood Federation’s imperial court had such a loose hold over its experts but could still stand toe to toe against the Iron Hammer Federation. The plant-type feys with the Sacred Wood bloodline played a key role in this.
