Chapter 519: Come, Come Home with Master
After breaking the carrot, the Moon Empress handed half of it to the suddenly sluggish little rabbit in her arms.
Then, she placed the little rabbit on the ground.
Standing by Lin Yuan’s side, the Moon Empress gently placed the other half of the carrot at the corner of his mouth before immediately beginning to urge spirit qi.
Under the Moon Empress’ urging of spirit qi, the half-carrot dissolved into a liquid and flowed into Lin Yuan’s stomach on its own.
After Lin Yuan’s body absorbed the energy in this half-carrot, it immediately transformed as carrot-colored energy radiated from it.
Lin Yuan’s body and soul had long been broken, while his spirit had also fallen into a deep sleep.
However, upon digesting this half carrot, the broken soul silhouette in the depths of Lin Yuan’s soul, together with his arms that had their bones exposed, rapidly recovered.
Mere moments after the half carrot had entered Lin Yuan’s body, everything in it was restored to its original state.
However, Lin Yuan’s soul and spirit were still deep in slumber, just like how a person who had been awake for three days and three nights needed a long night’s rest to replenish his energy.
Although Lin Yuan’s body had completely recovered, the tragedy of what he had just experienced in the dimensional rift would always be engraved on his tattered moon-white spirit qi clothes and the blood that stained them.
At that moment, the little rabbit’s eyes first looked toward Lin Yuan. Upon finding that he was alright, it appeared to release its breath.
Yet, when it lowered its head and saw that it only had half a carrot left in its paws, the little rabbit’s ears immediately drooped to the ground.
It tenderly rubbed its half carrot. Suddenly, the half carrot regrew the part that had been broken by the Moon Empress and became whole again.
However, the newly-grown carrot looked to be smaller than its previous size by a whole round.
The little rabbit had initially decided to continue gnawing on its carrot. However, upon seeing that the carrot had shrunk by a round, it could not bear to put it in its mouth.
Instead, it put the carrot behind its bottom and hid it there.
Night Leaning Moon’s gaze was currently on the other two people the dimensional rift had spat out.
After giving Zhou Luo and Liu Jie a once-over, Night Leaning Moon turned her gaze on Liu Jie.
If one considered Liu Jie to only be a member of the Radiance Hundred Sequence, then Night Leaning Moon, as the Chief Guard of the Spirit Guards, would not have had such a deep impression of him.
Yet, upon looking at him only once, Night Leaning Moon immediately recognized him.
Unexpectedly, Liu Jie was amongst those who had emerged from the evolving dimensional rift.
Night Leaning Moon could not help but recall when Liu Jie had been outside Cold Frost City blocking the insect swarm to help the Spirit Guards face the insect tide for a full half an hour.
She walked to Liu Jie’s side, extended a hand, and inspected his condition. After which, she found that his present physical condition was unusually good.
Unexpectedly, Liu Jie’s internal vitality was in a state of surplus.
Vitality would ooze out of Liu Jie’s body from time to time.
This was clearly because it had received excessive healing.
However, when Night Leaning Moon glanced toward the Insect Queen by Liu Jie’s side, her eyebrows immediately rose. She held the cocooned Insect Queen in her hands and muttered, “This Insect Queen has absorbed the Blade Queen Bee’s natal poison. What good fortune...
“It’s just that there is too little of the Blade Queen Bee’s poison in the Insect Queen’s body to support the Insect Queen’s complete mutation.
“Since that is the case, why don’t I give you some good fortune—”
The Moon Empress suddenly interrupted Night Leaning Moon.
“Night Leaning Moon, This Empress has indeed underestimated you. Even with your stupidity, you became a Class 4 Creation Master in ten years.”
Upon hearing this, the corner of Night Leaning Moon’s mouth could not help but twitch twice behind her black veil.
She thought to herself, How am I stupid?
Back then, had it not been for my lack of talent as a Creation Master, I thought that it would at least be possible to become a pinnacle Class 4 Creation Master or even a Class 5 Creation Master.
However, even if I have not become a Class 5 Creation Master, I am still strong!
How can you not praise me?
When I was a Radiance Envoy with you, I was always the main center in the team!
With that, Night Leaning Moon suddenly recalled how she had always been given the cold shoulder when she had been a Radiance Envoy with the Moon Empress.
The involuntary twitching of the corner of Night Leaning Moon’s mouth grew more severe.
At that moment, the Moon Empress spoke again.
“This evolving dimensional rift is at least Class 5.
“Now, its evolution has already been stopped by the three of them. Giving him a Blade Queen Bee is not considered giving him good fortune.”
Upon hearing this, Night Leaning Moon looked at Liu Jie, who was lying on the ground and said after pondering for a while, “All these years, I have never accepted a disciple. Once he awakens, if he is willing to take me as his Master, I will be willing to teach him with all of my heart.”
The Moon Empress could not help but reveal her shock.
It would really be considered good fortune to be accepted as the Chief Guard of the Spirit Guards’ disciple.
Immediately, the Moon Empress thought, if Liu Jie was Lin Yuan’s retainer knight and Night Leaning Moon wanted to teach Liu Jie with all of her heart, would she not be working for Lin Yuan indirectly?
That was not bad at all!
Right after Night Leaning Moon had spoken, she looked wordlessly at Zhou Luo and Lin Yuan beside the Moon Empress. Then, she transferred her gaze to the Moon Empress.
Obviously, she was not done speaking.
Upon noticing Night Leaning Moon’s gaze, the Moon Empress immediately said, “Some people are destined to scale mountains and cross oceans. These people do not care about temporary glory.
“Three years later, the five new Radiance Envoys will be decided.”
Having said this, a trace of recollection flashed in the Moon Empress’ eyes.
Right after, the Moon Empress gently let her next sentence drop.
“The enemy is Dark, I know. You can handle this matter as you see fit.”
With that, she directly bent over and hugged Lin Yuan in her arms before stepping out of the curtain of moonlight.
Then, she said to Mystic Moon, who was standing guard outside, “Mystic Moon, bring the two people inside to Radiant Moon Palace and...”
The Moon Empress stopped here before continuing.
“Bring them to Lin Yuan’s mansion so that they can recuperate well.”
Mystic Moon had already seen Lin Yuan in the Moon Empress’ arms earlier when she came out.
Although Lin Yuan looked to be in a deep sleep, Mystic Moon could tell just by the Moon Empress’ mood that Lin Yuan’s life was not in danger.
Moreover, just before the Moon Empress had come out, the layer of blood coating the bright moon in the sky had grown extremely intense before disappearing entirely.
At that time, the Mother of Bloodbath, Endless Summer, and Listen had all seen Lin Yuan in the Moon Empress’ arms.
In that instant, their tight heartstrings had finally loosened slightly.
The Moon Empress did not acknowledge the trio. She just carried Lin Yuan and walked outside.
Outside, dense moonlight rose from the Moon Empress’ entire body, covering Lin Yuan’s figure.
The Moon Empress looked at Lin Yuan and whispered, “Come, come home with Master.”
When the Moon Empress stepped outside, the experts standing guard outside all lowered their heads. Yet, even the expressions they wore while looking at the ground became extremely respectful.
However, just as they lowered their heads, they suddenly sensed that the coldness from the light shining on their bodies had been replaced by warmth.
After a long while, the two Guard Envoys standing in front slowly raised their heads.
Only then did they realize that the bright moon, which had placed itself above everything else in the sky, had disappeared.
Now, the sun was rising high in the sky, exuding a warm light.
