This was not the first time that Lin Yuan had seen the Moon Empress concocting spirit fluids. But every time he did, he felt a strange astonishment.
Her manipulation of the spiritual ingredients was exceptionally efficient, and she could perfectly combine tens of spiritual ingredients in less than a minute.
Lin Yuan had also seen Master Hong Shen concoct spirit fluids. It would take Master Hong Shen close to two hours to use his soul to combine tens of spiritual ingredients, and even then, 100% homogenization was not guaranteed.
He felt that the difference between a Class 4 Creation Master and a Class 5 Creation Master was too vast.
The canyon that separated Class 4 Creation Masters and Class 5 Creation Masters was even wider than the one that separated Class 4 Creation Masters and Class 1 Creation Masters.
The Moon Empress smiled when she saw Lin Yuan. However, she sighed when she looked back down at the amber substance in the suet chalcedony bottle.
Lin Yuan noticed this and asked softly, “Master, is this the potion that will remove Wang Fuxiang’s bad luck?”
The Moon Empress realized that Lin Yuan had learned about what had happened at the Guard Ye Banquet.
“This spirit fluid can dispel the bad luck that’s festering in the Bamboo Monarch’s soul. However, the root of the bad luck must be removed first.”
The Moon Empress stored away the suet chalcedony bottle.
Previously, the Moon Empress might have approved of Chef Supreme’s method.
But ever since accepting Lin Yuan as her disciple, the Moon Empress understood that Chef Supreme’s method would lead to a feud with the Bamboo Monarch even though it would also solve the issue.
The Bamboo Monarch was a rational person. Even though he knew that he would be afflicted by bad luck, he still chose to be with Wang Fuxiang.
This meant that the Bamboo Monarch had already prepared himself for the worst.
Hence, the Bamboo Monarch would never allow Chef Supreme to harm Wang Fuxiang.
The Moon Empress understood how the Bamboo Monarch felt. If Lin Yuan were in Wang Fuxiang’s place, she would also never allow anyone to hurt him.
If she was really left with no other choice, the Moon Empress was even willing to sacrifice herself in order to preserve Lin Yuan.
Thus, the Moon Empress was not going to participate in this matter. She was not going to stop Chef Supreme from going to the Purple Bamboo Forest, but she was not going to take Lin Yuan there either.
When Lin Yuan noticed the worried look on the Moon Empress’ face, he immediately felt uncomfortable.
This was the first time that Lin Yuan had seen such a look of helpless nervousness on the Moon Empress’s face.
“Master, I heard from Zong Ze that the Bamboo Monarch fell ill at the Guard Ye Banquet. Is it because of Wang Fuxiang’s bad luck?” asked Lin Yuan.
The Moon Empress nodded and replied, “Wang Fuxiang’s bad luck is something that she was born with. It must have something to do with her ancestry. This kind of bad luck has a major effect on the soul of others. The stronger the love, the more damage will be done to the soul. Not even Grade 5 spirit fluids can achieve the level of decay that the bad luck has caused to the Bamboo Monarch’s soul.”
The situation was exactly as Lin Yuan had thought.
At first, Lin Yuan was thinking about how to use the Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds pollen. But now, he only saw one way to use it, which was to give it to the Moon Empress.
The Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds pollen could remove bad luck. It would be able to remove Wang Fuxiang’s bad luck in a large enough amount.
When Wang Fuxiang’s bad luck disappeared, the Bamboo Monarch’s soul would no longer be affected by the bad luck.
The Bamboo Monarch should be able to return to the pink of health with the spirit fluid that the Moon Empress concocted.
At this point, it was a matter of life or death for the Bamboo Monarch.
It was a choice between love and his own life and duty. The Bamboo Monarch was stuck between a rock and a hard place.
However, even if he continued to be unable to make a decision, someone would eventually make the decision for him.
If the Moon Empress used the Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds pollen now to save the Bamboo Monarch, he would owe her a debt that he would never be able to return.
This would be extremely beneficial to the Moon Empress.
The Moon Empress had always been looking after Lin Yuan, and he felt that it was high time that he did something to help her.
“Master, will you be happy if you can remove Wang Fuxiang’s bad luck?” asked Lin Yuan with a smile.
He took out the brocade box with the Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds pollen and said, “Master, look, this is something I obtained by accident while nurturing a fey. The thing inside should be able to help with Wang Fuxiang’s bad luck.”
Lin Yuan gave the brocade box to the Moon Empress.
The Moon Empress was engulfed in her thoughts about the Bamboo Monarch’s issue and was stunned when she heard what Lin Yuan said.
However, she took what Lin Yuan said seriously because she trusted and respected her disciple and because she knew that he could nurture the Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls that proved his unique abilities as a Creation Master.
The Moon Empress opened the brocade box and studied the light golden pollen inside.
Shortly after, her eyes lit up.
The pollen in the box could remove Wang Fuxiang’s bad luck. However, Wang Fuxiang’s bad luck was so aggressive that one box of Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds pollen was not enough.
The Moon Empress asked Lin Yuan, “Disciple, do you have more of this pollen?”
Lin Yuan nodded and replied, “Master, I’m able to produce one box every week.”
The Moon Empress patted Lin Yuan’s stray strands of hair and said, “Disciple, you’ve done a great service for the Bamboo Monarch. Let’s go! I’ll take you to Purple Bamboo Forest, and you can give the pollen to him yourself!”
She remembered Chef Supreme, who was rushing to the Purple Bamboo Forest and felt that she should give him a call to stop him.
If Chef Supreme attacked, the Bamboo Monarch and Chef Supreme would not stop fighting until one of them was dead.
They would never be on good terms again for the rest of their lives.
Lin Yuan hurriedly said, “Master, I think it’s best if you give the Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds pollen to the Bamboo Monarch.”
The Moon Empress was surprised by this, but she understood why Lin Yuan had said so.
Warmth flooded her heart, and she touched the radiant pearls on Lin Yuan’s collar.
“If you give the Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds pollen to the Bamboo Monarch, you’ll have done him a huge favor. You’ll also become Wang Fuxiang’s savior. From then on, you can even ask for the Purple Bamboo Forest, and the Bamboo Monarch will give it to you,” said the Moon Empress gently.
Lin Yuan shook his head. He knew what the Moon Empress’ intentions were, but his status was still too low to meet with the Bamboo Monarch.
Although this favor would make Lin Yuan’s future smoother, he had always depended on himself and did not even like to bother the Moon Empress.
As such, he did not care about the favor that the Bamboo Monarch would owe him. Moreover, this favor would be much more useful to the Moon Empress.
Lin Yuan smiled brightly at the Moon Empress, revealing a row of pearly teeth, and said, “All I need is Master..”
