2224 Genius’ Chance! “The Lonely Night Hurricane Moths that were flying outside the imperial court have spotted Lin Yuan! He’s back!” Liu Jie paused before he looked into Luo Lan’s eyes and said thoughtfully, “I had the army of insects patrol around the Freezing Hammer Tribe for the past two days and managed to catch almost 100 spies who were acting suspiciously. After being questioned, I discovered that most came from the eight major Black Gold tribes. A small portion are nomads who were trying to sneak into the Freezing Hammer Tribe.” Liu Jie’s words caused Luo Lan to narrow her eyes. This was the first time that Liu Jie saw such an overpowering, lethal aura from Luo Lan. Liu Jie was a native of the Radiance Hundred and had been a member of the Radiance Hundred Sequence even before he met Lin Yuan. After he met Lin Yuan, he became the disciple of the Chief of the Spirit Guards, Night Leaning Moon. After receiving an education in the Radiance Federation, Liu Jie had a fair amount of knowledge about the Startling Lines Continent’s three federations. After the recent training on the Startling Lines Continent, Liu Jie noticed that the low-rank spirit qi professionals in the three federations lived pathetic lives. If spirit qi professionals lived such lives, the regular people did not even need to be mentioned. Liu Jie hoped that these circumstances could change. After taking control of it, Lin Yuan did not immediately destroy and rampage the Startling Lines Continent. Instead, he helped the three federations develop in their own ways. Liu Jie hoped that he could see a calm Startling Lines Continent in the future. In order to achieve this goal, Luo Lan needed to steel her heart when it was necessary. Otherwise, the underground movement in the federations would hamper the speed of the developments. Although Lin Yuan could help Luo Lan this time, he could not help her every time. It was likely that Luo Lan’s recent change in mentality was related to the guidance she had received from Su Yiren these past two days. Ever since Liu Jie joined the Astronomical Parliament, he saw the Astronomical Parliament as a long-term investment. Lin Yuan selflessly provided for the other members of the Astronomical Parliament. It went without saying that the other members of the Astronomical Parliament also needed to repay him. Liu Jie had not been able to set his mind at ease when it came to Luo Lan. It would be much better to promote one of the Black Gold tribes rather than have the soft-hearted Luo Lan control the Iron Hammer Federation. But this change in Luo Lan led Liu Jie to dismiss this idea. On the way back, Lin Yuan thought about how he should communicate with Luo Lan. It could be said that out of the three federations on the Startling Lines Continent, the Iron Hammer Federation had the most issues. The structure and environment of the entire Iron Hammer Federation were changing. This would definitely be difficult for many tribes to accept. Since it would be troublesome to talk about each matter individually, Lin Yuan summoned Genius the instant he stepped into the imperial court’s hall. Genius meowed and affectionately nudged Lin Yuan’s neck with its face. Its long tails wrapped around Lin Yuan, so it looked like eight shining ribbons were behind him. Genius had been continuously strengthening itself, and even its bloodline had transformed multiple times. However, no matter how much it changed, it would never stop cuddling and being affectionate with Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan had already used his spiritual energy to inform Genius about the discovery of the Wisdom Heart Gem. Genius had been stocking up on energy all this time. Now that it had the Wisdom Heart Gem, Genius decided to push itself and gain the chance to become a Class 5 Creation Master before it reached Myth Breed. Although the chances were very slim, if it succeeded, it would also be able to transform when it evolved to Myth Breed. At that time, it would definitely be able to cross the level of beginner Class 5 Creation Master. At the very least, it would be able to become stronger than Di Wanmi and Yi Huailu. After Lin Yuan met up with Luo Lan, he did not wait for her to ask and instructed Genius to use Connected Tails to connect him to Luo Lan. As Genius’ contractor, Lin Yuan could transfer all the information he wanted Luo Lan to know to her. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺 After Luo Lan received the information from Lin Yuan’s mind, her jaw dropped, and she stood rooted to the ground. Lin Yuan knew how difficult it would be to digest such information. Thus, regardless of her expression, he would not be surprised. The changes to the Iron Hammer Federation were too startling. If there was ever a day that someone told Lin Yuan that the Radiance Federation had been reduced to a land of lava, he would be able to empathize with how Luo Lan was feeling now. Luo Lan had also seen her fair share of major events and knew that the Iron Hammer Federation was about to transform. Thus, she forcefully calmed herself down and only allowed her eyes to remain as wide as saucers to indicate that she had not yet digested the astonishing news. Lin Yuan silently waited for Luo Lan to recover from her shock before he went on to say, “Luo Lan, Yiren must have told you about the situation in the Great Lush Federation. With your previous mindset and character, I decided to allow you to try and walk down your own path. “But now, reality has proved that your path isn’t feasible. I intend to use the same method on you as I did on Jin Qianxun and take full control of the Iron Hammer Federation. What do you think of this?” Luo Lan nodded seriously. “Young Master, I will do everything as you say!” Luo Lan had already made a decision. Thus, she did not feel burdened by what Lin Yuan said at all. Although the Iron Hammer Federation’s climate was going to change to become like that of the Divine Wood Federation, where there would be no winter season, it would still take some time for the cold temperature to recede. But the snow and ice covering the Iron Hammer Federation were already visibly melting. With Luo Lan’s discerning gaze, she immediately realized that a canal was about to be constructed. The canal’s construction would touch the lives of all the citizens in the Iron Hammer Federation. Luo Lan needed to seize the opportunity and call all the tribes to help with the canal’s construction. There were many rivers in the Iron Hammer Federation. Although the currents of the main rivers were very strong, making them very dangerous, the resources in the rivers could be gathered once the snow melted. All of the tribes would be willing to take the risk for the sake of the massive potential rewards. While Luo Lan’s mind was flying at top speed, Su Yiren said in a gentle voice, “Lin Yuan has agreed to let me stay and accompany you for some time. With all these massive changes, you’ll have a much easier time with my help. Why don’t I help to train your six female attendants? Once they’ve been trained, they can help you deliver your imperial commands and handle tasks that don’t require you to be personally present. This will save a lot of your time.”
