Chapter 1378: I Might Be Able to Last Another Seven Days
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ta Lei did not think much when he was unable to enter the Astronomical Parliament because the Horseshoe Tribe had encountered a group of Bronze Long-Eared Sand Foxes while they were migrating and had been trapped in the wilderness.
The Long-Eared Sand Fox was a wily wild beast-type fey that liked to move in groups. When they encountered prey, they chose to trap their prey in order to prevent individual injuries. Then, they would charge together to tire out their prey.
After their prey was famished and dehydrated to the point that they no longer had any energy, the Long-Eared Sand Foxes would then kill them.
The strongest person in the Horseshoe Tribe was Ta Lei’s grandfather, whose main fey was the Silver Tunneling Mole.
Although the pinnacle Silver Tunneling Mole was stronger than the Long-Eared Sand Foxes, it would not be able to fight against a group of Long-Eared Sand Foxes in the wilderness.
!!
Eventually, Ta Lei’s grandfather used the Horseshoe Tribe’s treasure, the World Flower’s medicinal properties, to evolve the Tunneling Mole to Gold grade.
After the Gold Tunneling Mole killed a few of the Long-Eared Sand Foxes, the rest of the Long-Eared Sand Foxes realized how strong the Tunneling Mole was and gave up on trapping the Horseshoe Tribe.
Once a Long-Eared Sand Fox was injured in the wilderness, they would either be preyed on by stronger beasts or be consumed by the flesh-consuming insect-species feys.
Hence, even a starving beast in the wilderness would ensure that they did not become injured.
Due to the Long-Eared Sand Foxes, Ta Lei could not fall asleep for two hours, and he assumed that he had missed the meeting.
Since he could not participate in the meeting, he could not receive Lin Yuan’s advice.
Hence, he could only do as Lin Yuan had said and continue to lead the Horseshoe Tribe to the boundary between the Iron Hammer Federation and Divine Wood Federation.
It was not easy to migrate an entire tribe. There were people of all ages in the tribe, and the old and young moved at almost half the speed of the strong men. Moreover, the weaker people also needed up to 20 minutes of rest after every hour of moving.
When the Tunneling Mole was Silver grade, the people in the Horseshoe Tribe had been worried about the migration. But now that the Tunneling Mole had evolved to Gold grade and the Horseshoe Tribe was moving along the merchant paths, the Tunneling Mole would be able to handle most of the dangers they might encounter along the way.
Ta Lei only hoped that he would not be held back by another fey during the next meeting. He was not worried that Lin Yuan would be angry at him for missing this meeting. In Ta Lei’s eyes, the man wrapped in hundreds of laws and willpowers was as warm as an older brother.
Yin Lin, Bei Xu, and Ta Lei all had their own interpretations and disappointment about not attending the weekly meeting.
However, not even the combination of all their worries and negative feelings could compare to Su Yiren, who was cowering next to a trash can in an alley in Oak City.
She was a Dark Envoy from the Seven States of Darkness.
Any one of the Seven States of Darkness could not compare to the Divine Wood Federation. But when they joined together, their power could match up to that of the Startling Lines Continent, Divine Wood Federation, Iron Hammer Federation, and Great Lush Federation.
Su Yiren was used to being treated like royalty, and she only came to experience true helplessness and inner darkness when she arrived at the Divine Wood Federation.
She could not remember how many times she had been beaten up or crawled away from death’s door in the past month.
Besides external factors, Su Yiren also needed to struggle through seven or eight daily bouts of soul pain.
Luckily, she had chosen to cover herself in dirt and climb inside a trash can when her soul sent her into anguish. Otherwise, she might have been seen as prey if she had been spotted in the alley.
Previously, Su Yiren would not have been willing to be controlled by any group regardless of how bad of a situation she was in because that meant that she would have to give up her freedom. This was the reason she had not immediately agreed to join the Astronomical Parliament in the first meeting that she joined.
However, now that she had decided to join the Astronomical Parliament and had accepted Lin Yuan’s request, not a day went by that she did not hope that Lin Yuan would find her soon.
Lin Yuan had given the desperate Su Yiren a reason to keep living every day. She did her best to hold on and keep surviving until he found her.
But when the meeting did not take place, Su Yiren’s heart was plunged into cold water. She felt as though her entire world had darkened, and her life had lost all light.
Joining the Astronomical Parliament was her sole salvation.
She had realized the moment she entered the Astronomical Parliament that the meeting was a sacred source lifeform’s ability.
It was not easy to obtain sacred source lifeforms, and any faction that was able to obtain a sacred source lifeform had to be strong.
Moreover, the conversation between Yin Lin and Lin Yuan during the meeting had led Su Yiren to guess that there was more to Yin Lin’s identity than what met the eye.
Previously, she had not had a hint of sacred source lifeform aura at all. But at the last meeting, the sacred source lifeform aura suddenly appeared around her.
This was proof of how important the group of people that the Astronomical Parliament had gathered were.
By now, Su Yiren saw the Astronomical Parliament and Lin Yuan as her savior. She placed all their hopes in them.
At the first moment that she realized that the meeting would not be happening, Su Yiren considered death.
She lived like a refugee every day. Every time the smell of garbage wafted into her nose, she felt her pride being chipped away.
However, she remembered what had Lin Yuan said: “As long as you’re alive, there’s hope.”
This sentence had pulled Su Yiren out of the darkness and given her a reason to continue pushing on.
She clutched the phone she had found and mumbled to herself, “There’s still hope! I might be able to last another seven days. The last seven days.”
Su Yiren’s body started to tremble, and the intense pain from her soul caused her to lose
consciousness.

The Mother of Bloodbath, who was in its room dealing with its complicated emotions, immediately indicated that it wanted to go with Lin Yuan to the Divine Wood Federation to protect him.
But after some consideration, Lin Yuan turned down the Mother of Bloodbath.
He said seriously, “Mother of Bloodbath, your family will definitely come to the Radiance Federation to find you.”
