Chapter 1048: No Time Like the Present

Fan Jianyi hurriedly said, “No, not at all. Cage of Brahma Insects was the one that lost the Kill Food Worm and caused you trouble. Do you have any time for me to visit you to express my apologies?”
Lin Yuan’s eyebrow twitched
Fan Jianyi sure was smart. She pushed all the responsibility onto the Kill Food Worm and off herself.
Lin Yuan now had a faint idea of why Fan Jianyi wanted to visit his mansion.
If she just wanted to express her apologies, she could just say so over the phone.
But since she wanted to visit him personally, it meant that she wanted to show her sincerity as well as discuss business.
The only things Lin Yuan had that Fan Jianyi needed were the Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls and pure Law Crystals.
There was no way that Coiling Dragon’s Valley and Dark Clouds Bird Shrine would reveal that he had pure Law Crystals.
Hence, it could only be the Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls that Fan Jianyi wanted.
Lin Yuan needed Elemental Shellfish badly and was waiting for someone to trade with him.
“All visitors are guests. If you’re willing to visit, I’ll welcome you with open arms!”
Fan Jianyi replied enthusiastically, “Young Lord, do you have any time today or tomorrow?”
“Just call me Lin Yuan. There’s no time like the present. It’s clear skies all around today, so there’s no better time to entertain guests,” replied Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan would not have wanted Fan Jianyi to come tomorrow.
In just a day’s time, a fair number of elemental pearls would be produced in the Spirit Lock spatial zone.
Lin Yuan, who no longer had any elemental pearls after Gray transformed into a Heavenly Family Fey, did not want to waste a single elemental pearl.
His friendliness made Fan Jianyi excited.
Cage of Brahma Insects had already prepared the gift they were going to give to Lin Yuan as an apology, and all she needed to do was deliver it.
Lin Yuan stretched out on the sofa as he calculated how many Golden Flower Brocade Pearls were worth one infant Elemental Shellfish.
Although there was no guarantee that the Cage of Brahma Insects would have infant Elemental Shellfish, it would be easy for them to use their position and power to obtain infant Elemental Shellfish from other factions.
Thus, by trading with Cage of Brahma Insects, Lin Yuan would essentially be trading with all the top and veteran factions in the Radiance Federation.
At first, Lin Yuan only wanted seven or eight infant Elemental Shellfish.
But since Cage of Brahma Insects was taking the initiative to visit him, he would not waste this opportunity.
Lin Yuan plamned on trading for as many Elemental Shellfish as he could.
After the Spirit Lock spatial zone evolved, he tried his best to make full use of the space by filling it with shelves full of wood and coral jades.
For the wood to become jade-textured and the coral jade to become spotted, a large amount of spirit gi was required.
Although the Spirit Lock spatial zone was packed to the brim, it did not use the full amount of spirit qi that the spirit pool was releasing.
Gray, who used to require a large amount of spirit qi, no longer needed as much anymore.
Hence, Lin Yuan planned on obtaining as many Elemental Shellfish as possible to use up the excess spirit qi. Otherwise, the high concentration of spirit qi would be wasted.
Since the high concentration of spirit qi did not exist anywhere else, Lin Yuan was not going to waste any of it.
The high concentration of spirit gi was Lin Yuan’s ticket to obtaining resources.
Both Qin Lun and Qin Yu needed the Polar Night Blue Sky Scorpion, and Lin Yuan planned on asking Cage of Brahma Insects if they had any.
He had not used the Jasmine Lily’s Severed Limbs Growth to activate the Polar Night Blue Sky Scorpion bloodline inside Qin Yu to awaken his beast pattern.
Qin Yu was young and in no rush. However, Qin Lun had awakened his beast pattern and had reached 16-years-old.
Without the Polar Night Blue Sky Scorpion, Qin Lun would be wasting his talent.
Lin Yuan had accepted Qin Lun into Sky City. Hence, he did not want to see Qin Lun’s talent go to waste.
While Lin Yuan and Fan Jianyi were talking, the snow that had fallen in the Return from Faraway Mansion had mostly melted.
As he padded through the snow and gazed at the strips of green that were already poking through, Lin Yuan felt energized despite having been up all night.
‘Wen Yu had used the Cinnabar Sweet Osmanthus’ flower buds, the Bronze/Legend Golden Curtain Peony’s leaves, and the Sunlight King Lotus’ sunlight dipped dew drops to create Cinnabar Peony Tea.
Although the Cinnabar Peony Tea was not as refreshing as the Three Treasures Tea, it had the fragrance of osmanthus and peony.
One sip of the tea and one would feel as though they were bathing in flowers.
‘The Osmanthus Peony Tea could be served to Fan Jianyi.
Lin Yuan thought about the way Fan Jianyi had spoken to him, and he shrugged.
He was afraid that Fan Jianyi would beat around the bush and be too embarrassed to bring up the Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls.
Lin Yuan placed one Golden Lotus Brocade Pearl on the jade-textured coffee table as an obvious prompt. Fan Jianyi would definitely ask him about the Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls when she saw it.
Lin Yuan had placed only one Golden Lotus Brocade Pearl on the coffee table and not multiple because he knew that the rarest items were the most valuable.
With only one Golden Lotus Brocade Pearl, Fan Jianyi would be able to gauge the price of the Golden Lotus Brocade Pearl for herself to see how many Elemental Shellfiss were worth one Golden Lotus Brocade Pearl.
No matter how many Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls were decided as the price, it would not be a problem for Lin Yuan.
Brocade Zither was the hardest worker in the Spirit Lock spatial zone as it nurtured Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls endlessly.
Now, Lin Yuan had close to 100 Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls, and he had more than enough to trade with Cage of Brahma Insects.
Lin Yuan returned to the mansion and made a pot of Cinnabar Peony Tea before bringing Gray back to the Spirit Lock spatial zone.
If he left Gray outside when Fan Jianyi, a thearch-class expert, came to visit, Gray’s identity as a Heavenly Family Fey would be exposed.
Lin Yuan had heard from Mystic Moon that Cage of Brahma Insects depended on the Moon Empress’s support.
Nonetheless, he did not feel comfortable with letting Cage of Brahma Insects know about Gray..
