Fey Evolution Merchant Novel - Chapter 2082
2082 You Don’t Owe Me Anything!
As Lin Yuan continued down the path of power increment, he realized something that many people did not understand: that the people in one’s life were more important than power increment.
Power could not only allow one to climb to greater heights, but more importantly, it could also protect those in one’s life.
This was why Lin Yuan had not fallen into the period of obstacles experienced by other young experts, where they became arrogant and unruly.
There was no limit to the power to protect.
Lin Yuan might already have four of the Lifespan Mice, but he would still use each one carefully.
But today, the Lifespan Mouse was demonstrating its greatest worth. It was going to save the Spacetime Elder’s life, as well as protect the sacred land that was the Radiance Federation.
The Spacetime Elder could not help but laugh when he looked into Lin Yuan’s honest and sincere eyes.
“Young man, you are full of spirit. Of course you’ll have the chance to fight for immortality! Moon Empress, you have blessed the Radiance Federation by accepting this disciple!”
The Moon Empress smirked.
“Spacetime Elder, after all that Little Yuan said, why don’t you go ahead and form a contract with the Lifespan Mouse? The young are blessed by having many years ahead of them. Let them go and make something out of themselves!”
The Moon Empress’ words sounded like a parent bragging about her child.
The small sapling that she used to need to watch over had now grown into a small tree that she could be proud of.
The Spacetime Elder circulated his spiritual energy and formed a contract with the energetic Lifespan Mouse.
When he formed a contract with the Lifespan Mouse, the Spacetime Elder sensed how badly it yearned for the Falling Moon Life Pear.
The Spacetime Elder handed the Falling Moon Life Pear over, and the Lifespan Mouse clutched it with its small paws and quickly chomped down on it.
While the Lifespan Mouse was eating the Falling Moon Life Pear, the Spacetime Elder could clearly sense that his lifespan was increasing.
The Spacetime Elder knew that the issue with his lifespan that had been plaguing him all this time had been perfectly solved. He no longer needed to worry about his lifespan.
Although he could no longer try to break through for now after his recent failure, he could try again five years later and not worry about his lifespan shrinking if he failed again.
While the Lifespan Mouse was eating the Falling Moon Life Pear, Xia Qing looked at her grandfather before she looked at Lin Yuan with gratitude.
However, she was a girl, and it would not be appropriate for her to express her thanks to Lin Yuan in front of elders.
So now that Xia Qing had confirmed that her grandfather’s lifespan had been rejuvenated, she extended an invitation to Lin Yuan.
“Lin Yuan, let me take you on a tour around other places in the imperial court. Auntie Moon and Grandfather will be chatting about formal business, and we won’t be able to give any input. It will be very boring.”
The Moon Empress immediately said, “Little Yuan, why don’t you go out for a spin with Little Qing? I will call you once I’m ready to return to the Radiant Moon Palace.”
Lin Yuan stood up and bowed to the Spacetime Elder and the Moon Empress before he walked out of the bedroom with Xia Qing.
Once they were out of the bedroom, Xia Qing sincerely thanked Lin Yuan, “Lin Yuan, thank you for allowing my family to remain complete! If there’s anything you want me to do, just say the word! I, Xia Qing, owe you a debt of life!”
Previously, Xia Qing already saw Lin Yuan as her friend. She was the one who had initiated the friendship.
She was not the type to beat around the bush with her friends.
As she faced Lin Yuan, she candidly told him what was going through her mind.
She was not the type to joke.
Since she said that she owed Lin Yuan a debt of life, she would not hesitate to give up her life in exchange for Lin Yuan’s if the situation ever called for it.
Xia Qing’s words were full of sincerity, but they put Lin Yuan in a slightly difficult position.
He hurriedly said, “There isn’t a debt of life to be owed here. I’m from the Xia Region. If your grandfather hadn’t been protecting the Radiance Federation all this time, my sister and I wouldn’t have been able to lead stable lives in the Xia Region after the death of our parents. You don’t owe me anything!”
Xia Qing did not say anything else.
She had always been stubborn and rarely changed her mind. This personality of hers had been the source of many headaches for her grandfather.
Xia Qing led Lin Yuan around the imperial court and happened to bump into Cicada Song and Iron Prison.
Both of them were frowning. It was clear that Cicada Song had roped Iron Prison into helping him find a solution for the problem he could not solve.
They looked shocked when they saw Lin Yuan and Xia Qing walking over to them from the distance, smiling away.
Cicada Song had just left the bedroom, where Xia Xing had been sobbing so pitifully that he could no longer stand to be there. The Spacetime Elder had been lying on the bed, with only about a year left to live.
No matter how much Xia Qing and Lin Yuan were in love, she should not be happily flirting with him on the streets at such a time.
At that moment, Cicada Song heard Xia Qing shout to him and Iron Prison, “Uncle Cicada Song, Uncle Iron Prison! The problem with Grandfather’s lifespan has been solved. You don’t need to worry anymore!”
Cicada Song and Iron Prison were stunned and looked elated.
Since Xia Qing was the one who spoke, there was no way it could be a lie.
Cicada Song and Iron Prison immediately rushed to the bedroom. They did not say much more to Xia Qing and Lin Yuan.
Although they knew that there was no way that Xia Qing was lying, they had to see the Spacetime Elder for themselves to rest easy.
Cicada Song remembered that the Moon Empress had also been helpless in the face of such an issue. Otherwise, the Spacetime Elder would not have had to give her the precious Earth Center Fine Milk.
The issue that the Moon Empress had been helpless to solve was later fixed without aid from anyone.
Now, the Spacetime Elder faced the same issue that the Moon Empress had, which was solved once the Moon Empress arrived.
This caused Cicada Song to instinctively think of Lin Yuan, who the Moon Empress had brought to the imperial court.
Could it be that Lin Yuan was the one who had solved the Moon Empress and Spacetime Elder’s problems?
While Cicada Song and Iron Prison were heading to the bedroom, the Moon Empress and the Spacetime Elder were chatting normally.
“Xiyue, I used to think that my granddaughter was too much of an introvert. But now, it seems like she just hadn’t met people on the same frequency!”
