1854 I Hope You Stay Safe and Well! Due to the influence of his higher devil, Lu Ou had become increasingly agitated during the battle. After Han Qi fused with his higher devil, the devil started dictating his actions. Thus, despite not being afraid of contracting devils, Lin Yuan still had to ensure that his devil submitted to him. Moreover, the Goddess of Mercy had repeatedly stressed the devils’ bad habits. Something that she had repeatedly stressed had to be something that had tripped her up in the past. As such, Lin Yuan would try his best to avoid it if he could. After all, Shadow would change the force it used in order to keep the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil alive. The eggs that the Wood-Building Winged Sandflies had laid still needed some time before they turned into pupas. The Plasma Snails also had not produced a significant amount of secretions yet. As such, Lin Yuan left the Spirit Lock spatial zone to go and have his meal. Since Liu Jie still had not returned from the Spirit Guards’ land yet, Lu Pinru was in charge of dinner. Although Lu Pinru was not as skilled as Liu Jie when it came to cooking, she was still better than Lin Yuan and Wen Yu. Through Lin Yuan’s battle against the Freedom Federation envoy group, Chu Ci thoroughly realized how lacking she was. She now knew how much her brother had silently endured as he shielded her. Hence, Chu Ci contacted Cold Moon to request to go out to train. Cold Moon was happy that Chu Ci was so eager to improve and agreed to the request. She decided to take Chu Ci to Cloud Lake City before school began so Chu Ci could face off against dimensional lifeforms that emerged from the dimensional rift. This would train Chu Ci’s fighting skills. When Cold Moon accepted Chu Ci as her disciple, Lin Yuan told her that he wanted to be the one to prepare feys for Chu Ci. Cold Moon was not opposed to this. She could tell that even before Lin Yuan became the Moon Empress’ disciple, he did all he could to leave the best things for his sister. When Chu Ci and Lin Yuan reunited recently, he gave her the Nirvana Blaze Butterfly. The Nirvana Blaze Butterfly was a special defense-type fey and fit in with Chu Ci’s combat system. It would be easy for Cold Moon to obtain a powerful fey for Chu Ci. However, she had no idea how she would go about obtaining a fey like the Nirvana Blaze Butterfly that was so illusionary and whose method of nurturing it was still unknown. Chu Ci had contracted a new fey, and her feys’ grades were all evolved. What she needed now was to firm up her combat skills. The decision to go out to train had been impulsive, and Chu Ci had not told Lin Yuan about it yet. When Chu Ci saw Lin Yuan now, she said, “Big Brother, I have spoken with Teacher, and the two of us will be going out to Cloud Lake City to train tomorrow morning. A month later, I still start my final semester at Redbud City.” When Lin Yuan heard that Chu Ci was going out to train tomorrow, he could not help but feel reluctance. As her older brother, he did not like her immersing herself in danger. Although she would be with Cold Moon at Cloud Lake City so Chu Ci would not be in any real danger, there was no doubt that she would have a difficult time. This was inevitable. When Lin Yuan went out to train and increase his power, he also had to experience many more challenges that regular people would not have to go through. Chu Ci had already decided to go out and train and had agreed on it with Cold Moon. No matter how reluctant Lin Yuan was, he could not hold her back. She only addressed him as ‘big brother’ when she was revealing her true feelings or when she wanted to ask him for something. In all other situations, she called him by his name. He knew that Chu Ci was reluctant to leave him too! Lin Yuan reached out and pressed down the stray hairs on Chu Ci’s head as he said softly, “Chu Ci, I will be very busy for the next two years. I might not always be in the Radiance Federation. But I will definitely be here to send you to school for your next semester and attend all parent-teacher meetings.” 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖 In the past, if Chu Ci heard that Lin Yuan would be busy for two years and he would only make time to see her when she started school, she would feel a strong twinge of sadness. But she no longer felt this way. From the battle with the Freedom Federation envoy group, Chu Ci saw the duty that Lin Yuan carried. He would not have been able to become so powerful if he had not worked tirelessly. For the first time since Chu Ci grew up, she hugged him like when she was a child and said, “Big Brother, don’t force yourself if it ever becomes too difficult! I only hope that you’re safe and well!” Lin Yuan had intended to immediately return to the Spirit Lock spatial zone after the meal. But since Chu Ci was going to leave tomorrow, Lin Yuan spent two hours watching television with her before they played two rounds of the Battle Flag game. He only returned to his room and then to the Spirit Lock spatial zone after he put her to bed. From the moment he entered the Spirit Lock spatial zone, alarm bells rang in Lin Yuan’s head. He could not help but feel like he had forgotten something. Oh my God! I’ve kept Shadow and the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil inside the spatial ring for at least three hours! Doesn’t this mean that Shadow has been disciplining the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil for at least four hours? The Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil might be a devil, but such a punishment might even be too much for it! Lin Yuan took a deep breath and hurriedly let Shadow and the Flower Calamity Beautiful Demon out of the spatial ring. Once it was released, Shadow seemed to be panting. It was likely that it had expended a substantial amount of effort in order to discipline the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil. It was not easy to tire out a demon that had reached Immortal. When Lin Yuan turned his eyes onto the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil, he saw that it was trembling. Once it saw Lin Yuan, the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil wrapped its arms around itself and respectfully knelt in front of him with its head lowered. It was as though it was a lowly speck of dirt. Lin Yuan gave Shadow a thumbs up. Not bad! Shadow’s disciplining of the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil exceeded Lin Yuan’s expectations. Lin Yuan was curious about what methods Shadow had used in order to discipline a devil to this extent. Since Shadow was done disciplining the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil, Lin Yuan decided to communicate with the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil. With a wave of his hand, Lin Yuan summoned Genius and relayed his instruction. Soon, a belt that was transformed from a tail linked Lin Yuan and the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil together. The Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil could sense that Lin Yuan was reading its thoughts through this belt. ...
