Chapter 1237: Master, Can You Contract This Fey?
The light blue sky that contrasted with the lunar yellow spirit qi clothes added a bright tinge to the spirit qi clothes. When it was paired with Lin Yuan’s natural charisma, his already exceptional features were elevated even further.
Lin Yuan looked at himself in the mirror but did not see anything different about himself.
When he stepped out of his room, he ran into Liu Jie, who had just returned from the Spirit Guards’ land.
Liu Jie’s eyes lit up, and he could not help but gasp to himself.

There’s no doubt about it. Lin Yuan is much more suited to wearing light-colored clothes like this over dark colors like black and navy.
People who did not have good looks would only appear uglier when they wore light-colored clothes. In comparison, people who did not have the right charisma would appear bland when they wore light-colored clothes.

Only people like Lin Yuan, who had both the looks and the charisma, would be able to carry off light-colored spirit qi clothes perfectly. Besides his charisma, he also had an air of freshness about him.
Lin Yuan hurriedly said to Liu Jie, who was about to start preparing dinner, “Big Brother Liu, I was just going to call you. I’m going to have dinner with Master tonight, so you don’t have to prepare my share. Wen Yu just ate some of the fishball noodles and grilled chicken wings you made this morning. She will probably sleep till tomorrow morning.”
Liu Jie nodded and replied, “The Mother of Bloodbath didn’t eat its fill after saving some of the chicken wings for Wen Yu. If only the Mother of Bloodbath and I will be having dinner in the mansion tonight, I’ll just make more chicken wings and other bird-type feys to stuff the Mother of Bloodbath.”

Lin Yuan immediately used the Ethereal Jellyfish’s Node Teleportation and traveled to the entrance of the Radiant Moon Palace.
…
But from the moment he arrived, he sensed that something was wrong.
Normally, the two Silver Stamen Gold Luster Cassias flourished and bloomed. In the evenings, the silver glow of the Silver Stamen Gold Luster Cassias even blanketed the afterglow of sunset....
Yet now, all the Silver Stamen Gold Luster Cassia’s flowers had closed up, and their branches were sagging feebly.
From Lin Yuan’s knowledge, he concluded that the plant-type feys were grieving.
But why were they so sorrowful? Could something have happened at the Radiant Moon Palace?
Lin Yuan anxiously entered the lobby of the Radiant Moon Palace and saw that the four tea attendants were standing in the lobby as usual.
It did not appear as though anything had happened.
When the four tea attendants saw Lin Yuan, they hurriedly went up to greet him. They bowed and said, “Young Lord, the Moon Empress prepared the ingredients and cooked tonight’s dinner herself. Mystic Moon should be tending to the fire now. The Moon Empress should be waiting for you in the inner palace.”
Lin Yuan greeted the four tea attendants before walking toward the inner palace.
Their behavior put him at ease. Apparently, he had been worried for nothing. It must be that something was wrong with the Silver Stamen Gold Luster Cassias.
Lin Yuan felt that he needed to mention the problem with the Silver Stamen Gold Luster Cassias to the Moon Empress.
Before he entered the inner palace, he saw Mystic Moon with a troubled expression.
Lin Yuan asked him curiously, “Mystic Moon, Cai Cha told me that you’re in the kitchen. Are you waiting for me?”
Mystic Moon took a step forward and said, “Young Lord, that drop of Earth Center Fine Milk—”
Before Mystic Moon could finish speaking, the Moon Empress’ voice traveled in from the inner palace.
“Little Yuan, come into the inner palace and see the Spirit-Siphon Goldfish I nurtured.”
The Moon Empress amplified her voice using spirit qi so even people far away could hear her clearly.
Only S-rank experts and above had this exclusive ability.
Lin Yuan was only a C-rank spirit qi professional and did not have this ability. Thus, he could not reply to the Moon Empress using the same method.

The Moon Empress’ voice cut Mystic Moon off mid-sentence, so all Lin Yuan heard was the part about the Earth Center Fine Milk.
Lin Yuan had heard of the Earth Center Fine Milk.
The Moon Empress had paid special attention to talking about the Earth Center Fine Milk when she explained precious spiritual ingredients to him.
The 100 most precious treasures were listed down in a record.
The Earth Center Fine Milk was number 17 on that record.
Every precious treasure that made it onto the list had special abilities that the other treasures could not replicate.
Hence, the rankings did not quantify the treasure’s worth.
Lin Yuan’s Lifeform Sacrificial Fire did not make it onto the list.
But what did the Earth Center Fine Milk have to do with Lin Yuan?
Lin Yuan frowned at Mystic Moon’s perturbed expression and said, “Uncle Mystic, something seems to be bothering you. Do you need me to do something?”
Mystic Moon knew that the Moon Empress’ interruption was a warning to him.
After all, there was nothing truly interesting about the Spirit-Siphon Goldfish.
The Butterfly Telescope had evolved to Suzerain grade and awakened their hidden bloodline, which allowed them to glide through the water as though they were fluttering butterflies. They were not important enough for the Moon Empress to call Lin Yuan over just to admire them.
Mystic Moon’s brow was still deeply furrowed as he smiled ruefully and shook his head.
“Young Lord, the Moon Empress is waiting to admire the fish together with you. Don’t keep her waiting.”
When Lin Yuan and Mystic Moon arrived at the inner palace together, Lin Yuan saw the Moon Empress seated at a table. She smiled at him just as warmly as she usually did.
Just when Lin Yuan was about to sit down next to her, he saw the stingy carrot-loving rabbit’s listless manner and immediately thought of the Lifespan Mouse.
He had planned on giving the Lifespan Mouse to the Moon Empress when he was about to leave.
But now that he noticed how lethargic the rabbit seemed, he decided to give the Lifespan Mouse to the Moon Empress now so that it could start spending time with the rabbit.
Lin Yuan took out the Bronze fey storage box that contained the Lifespan Mouse and said, “Master, can you contract this fey? I think it suits you well!”
The Moon Empress was taken aback.
She had prepared feys for Lin Yuan numerous times and even had to come up with all sorts of reasons to convince him to accept them.
Yet today, he was the one giving her a fey instead.
