Chapter 565: Friends Reunite

This was the best season to cultivate Angelfish of Bliss because they grew up quickly in cold environments.

Once they were full-grown fishes, Angelfish of Bliss would increase the rate at which they shed their fish coats when they were in warm weather.

If he nurtured the Angelfish of Bliss now till they matured, they would start shedding a layer of fish coat after a set period when the weather turned warm.

Initially, Lin Yuan planned to approach Gao Feng after New Year’s.

Lin Yuan did not want to disturb Gao Feng during the holiday for fear of causing Gao Feng to be too preoccupied with procuring Angelfish of Bliss for him.

Now that Gao Feng was looking for Lin Yuan, the latter would be able to broach his request with Gao Feng before New Year’s.

The Angelfish of Bliss were less than a finger long. Even fully matured, they were only about the size of a palm.

The man-made lake was already extremely large, and the size would increase by at least twice once it was expanded.

Thus, Lin Yuan would gladly take however many Angelfish of Bliss that Gao Feng could get his hands on.

When the rainbow-scaled Angelfish of Bliss swam around together, they formed an exquisitely lovely picture of movement.

Lin Yuan nodded in acknowledgment and said to Wen Yu, “I’ll give Gao Feng a call later to ask him what he needs.”

While Lin Yuan was speaking, he heard Liu Jie’s voice from behind him.

“Young Master, it’s great that you’re fine!”

After the close shave with death they experienced together in the dimensional rift, Liu Jie had used his body to carry out his service to the shield on his crest by blocking Lin Yuan from the deadly blow.

Because of this, Liu Jie’s consciousness had slipped into a daze.

However, there had still been enemies in the dimensional rift at that time, and Liu Jie was well aware of how perilous the situation had been.

Liu Jie had not been worried ever since he saw Lin Yuan during his internship. But now, he could truly relax after seeing Lin Yuan with his own eyes.

Lin Yuan saw Liu Jie carrying many rare spirit ingredients.

Most of the spiritual ingredients he was carrying were sea-type feys.

Liu Jie had asked Lin Yuan in advance what Chu Ci liked to eat and had gotten an idea of her tastes.

The mansion’s occupants did not always eat fish, and it was clear that Liu Jie had bought so much for the sake of Chu Ci.

Lin Yuan was still rather worried about the state of Liu Jie’s Insect Queen.

“Big Brother Liu, you mentioned that there’s a problem with your Insect Queen’s transformation. How is it now?” asked Lin Yuan.

At the mention of the Insect Queen, Liu Jie thought back to the issues that had persisted from yesterday afternoon to morning today. It seemed like a dream to him.

However, during this dream-like period, Liu Jie had watched as the transformation was completed.

“The Insect Queen is done transforming. It’s now much stronger.”

Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow.

Liu Jie was not a boastful person. In fact, he was exceptionally humble and down to earth.

If Liu Jie said that the Insect Queen was now much stronger, it meant that the Insect Queen’s powers had increased tremendously.

Liu Jie was elated for Liu Jie.

“Congratulations, Big Brother Liu.”

When Liu Jie heard Lin Yuan’s congratulations, his heart felt heavy yet relaxed.

Before falling into a coma, Liu Jie understood the injuries that he and the Insect Queen had sustained.

There was only one way that he could have survived those injuries—Lin Yuan must have done emergency treatment on him.

Hence, when Liu Jie had woken up and found out that Lin Yuan was in a coma, he blamed himself immensely. He felt that Lin Yuan had wasted too much spiritual power trying to heal him, which was why Lin Yuan had suffered such severe injuries and had been comatose for a week.

Now that Lin Yuan was right there before him, Liu Jie felt the knot in his heart loosen.

Liu Jie thought to himself that he was finally worthy of being the strongest shield for Lin Yuan on his journey to the top.

Lin Yuan’s sharp eyes caught sight of the change in Liu Jie’s gaze. It was obvious that Liu Jie was now much more confident.

Liu Jie looked toward Wen Yu and Chu Ci, whose arms were linked.

“Miss, you...”

Before Liu Jie could finish, Chu Ci had already stretched out her hand to him.

“Big Brother Liu, I’ve heard my brother talk about you. You know my name is Chu Ci.”

Chu Ci even winked at Liu Jie.

Liu Jie took Chu Ci’s outstretched hand, and his large hand shook her smaller one.

“Chu Ci, I bought some Shiny Star Groupers and Fire Tail Snow Sea Bass. I remember Lin Yuan saying that you don’t like eating spicy food. I’ll cook some sweet and sour fish, as well as honeyed steam fish for you.”

Chu Ci, who had grown up alongside Lin Yuan, was exceptionally sensitive. She was skilled at sensing the emotions of others.

She had initially been nervous about meeting all the new people.

However, she could tell from Wen Yu and Liu Jie’s attitudes that they were brimming with kindness.

They gazed at her with an affection that only older siblings had for their younger sister.

Chu Ci felt a surge of warmth from the sudden influx of people who cared about her.

There was a hint of astringence.

Chu Ci used to be unaware of what kept Lin Yuan so busy. Whenever they spoke on the phone, Lin Yuan would always ask about how she was.

Lin Yuan was not a talkative person.

However, whenever they were about to hang up, he would remind her to take care of her health and some other advice.

Lin Yuan had never said that it was hard for him, but having seen all this, Chu Ci could imagine how hard Lin Yuan had been working all this time.

At that moment, the Mother of Bloodbath, Endless Summer, and Hu Quan walked out of the mansion. They must have heard the discourse at the entranceway.

Endless Summer walked up to Lin Yuan and placed its hand on his shoulder to sense his condition.

Once it assured itself that he was fine, it moved on to Chu Ci and handed her a purple flower-shaped Diamond fey storage box.

After Chu Ci received the fey storage box, Endless Summer said, “My cherished accessories and clothes are inside. Feel free to wear any of them if they’re to your liking.”

When Lin Yuan heard what Endless Summer said, he hastily snatched the Diamond fey storage box out of Chu Ci’s hands and returned it to Endless Summer.

“You should keep these treasures for yourself, Endless Summer. Don’t give them to Chu Ci,” said Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan remembered that Endless Summer had gone through an unconventional style and rural heavy metal phase.

Endless Summer had bought the most accessories and spirit qi clothes.

Chu Ci had not come of age, and her style had yet to be decided.

What if she was influenced by the things that Endless Summer gave her?

From behind Endless Summer, the Mother of Bloodbath noticed the glint in Lin Yuan’s red eyes.

The Mother of Bloodbath had many things to say to Lin Yuan, but once it remembered what Mystic Moon and Moon Empress had said, as well as how it had failed as a Path Protector, the Mother of Bloodbath suddenly found it difficult to talk to Lin Yuan.
