Chapter 1295: The Queen’s New Changes
The elderly man knew that An He would ask about this.
Amongst all the young men of the younger generation, An He was the most conservative of them all. He did not go onto Star Web, visit forums, or even use his phone.
When he was at the Bright Light Building, he remained there for two years straight without leaving. It was only half a year ago when Long Lamplight decided that An He needed character building that he left to forge his own path instead of continuing to be cooped up in the Bright Light Building.
After listening to Long Lamplight mention the rising factions that had cropped up over the last year and the names of the disciples that the Moon Empress, Chief Guard Ye, and Cicada Song once, An He soon forgot all of them.
Long Lamplight had wanted to take An He to the Guard Ye Banquet as he was the right age to participate in the Martial Arts Stage. However, when he returned to the Bright Light Building after training for a few months, An He had obstinately refused to move or leave to attend the Guard Ye Banquet. In the end, he refused to go with Long Lamplight.
It was due to this reason that Long Lamplight, who always indulged An He, became determined to iron out An He’s character. After being taught a lesson and training for another few months, An He was kicked out of the Bright Light Building again.
At first, the elderly man was going to personally tell An He about Sky City. However, Zhang Cheng and Sun Jiang took up the mantle instead.
An He listened to them while nodding slightly. He did not puff up his ego as the disciple of a member of royalty and say anything like Sky City was not fit to fight over the whale fall with him.
Instead, he calmly said, “If Sky City truly wants to fight over the whale fall with me, we’ll just have to pit our abilities against each other. If Sky City lacks the capability, they will end up paying the price of being pushed aside by me. If Sky City has what it takes to take the whale fall from me, they can go ahead and do so. I can’t blame anyone else for my inability.”

Perhaps it was because he had eaten too many fruits, but An He’s mouth stretched into a yawn.
…
He gestured to Zhang Cheng and Sun Jiang to keep silent before saying to the elderly man behind him, “Grandfather Gu, I’m so sleepy. I want to take a nap. Wake me up when we arrive at the island.”
An He closed his eyes while the elderly man behind him pursed his lips.
The elderly man looked at Zhang Cheng and Sun Jiang, who dared not utter a word and sighed.
He had experienced An He’s temper when he was woken up. His biggest hobby was sleeping. Whoever woke him up would be served a chilling glower.

The elderly man pointed at Zhang Cheng. When Zhang Cheng looked back at the elderly man, the elderly man pointed at the sleeping An He.
Zhang Cheng immediately understood what the elderly man meant and nodded happily.
An He was ticked off by Zhang Cheng for his slip of the tongue, and he needed to do a good job of getting back into An He’s good books when he woke up An He later.
Zhang Cheng pressed his hand to his throat to silently practice the best way to wake An He up.
He was so excitedly caught up in practice that he did not notice the elderly man’s apologetic gaze.
…
Meanwhile, Lin Yuan was at a hotel in Raging Waves City that Liu Jie and the Kill Food Sky Butterfly had rented.
Lin Yuan had already been in Raging Waves City for two days.
When Lin Yuan met up with Liu Jie and the Kill Food Sky Butterfly two days ago, Liu Jie had ordered the Insect Queen to produce 20 Hurricane Owlet Moths. He instructed them to fly to the Sea Bliss Clan’s islands.
The Hurricane Owlet Moths were skilled at controlling the strength of winds and could fly even faster in the wildest air currents. Moreover, each of them was only about the size of a fist and could easily hide as they conducted surveillance on the island.
From Liu Jie’s reports, Lin Yuan understood what the humans on the island were doing.
Besides the 2,000 members of the Sea Bliss Clan placed there to nurture the Angelfish of Bliss, there were four king-class experts and one emperor-class expert from the Five Thearch Soldiers.
The emperor-class expert had noticed and killed a few of Liu Jie’s Hurricane Owlet Moths.
The Sea Bliss Clan had hired the Five Thearch Soldiers to watch over the island.
The Sea Bliss Clan had definitely informed the Five Thearch Soldiers about their fight with Connected Beast Park. An emperor-class expert would not be enough to protect the island from a secret attack from Connected Beast Park.
Lin Yuan guessed that the thearch-class experts from the Five Thearch Soldiers were not on the island because they had gone to deliver news to Long Lamplight.
It seemed that it was inevitable that Lin Yuan would clash with people from Long Lamplight’s party.
Suddenly, the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen’s voice sounded out in Lin Yuan’s head. “Master, I’ve finished absorbing the Vast Ocean World Crystal.”
Lin Yuan’s eyes lit up as this was the moment he had been waiting for over the past few days.
He returned to the Spirit Lock spatial zone and summoned the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen.
Lin Yuan noticed that the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen had changed significantly after absorbing the Vast Sea World Crystal. But this time, the changes were not contained to its skirt like before.
Instead, the changes were to the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen’s general aura.
Ever since the Dark Death Law transformed into the Dark Death World, it took the form of a bat embroidered on the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen’s skirt.
After the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen absorbed the Vast Sea world crystal, the large whale embroidered on its skirt was enough for Lin Yuan to know that it had perfectly gained control of the Vast Water World.
Compared to the changes to the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen’s skirt, the change to its aura was more obvious as it had become much more mature than before.
This was not maturity in its looks. Previously, it seemed like a sheltered princess. But now, it seemed more like a princess that had been declared to and was ready to take over the reign and become a queen.
The Sacred Sword Wielding Queen’s aura was full of dignified pride, and there was contempt in its gaze.
This indicated that the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen had evolved from 2 Stars to 3 Stars.
Lin Yuan thought, If the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen continues to evolve at such a rate, will it start to act more and more like a queen?
While Lin Yuan was observing the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen, it said, “Master, I have two things to give you.”
The Sacred Sword Wielding Queen gave Lin Yuan two light gold crystal items.
