Fey Evolution Merchant

Chapter 1238: Align Karma

Chapter 1238: Align Karma


The Moon Empress was at a momentary loss as she knew how little time she had left.


As one of the strongest experts in the world, she had gathered and nurtured all her feys herself except her first fey. which that old man had given to her.


She could not remember another time when someone had given her a fey to contract.


Back then, that old man had given her a Bronze fey storage box just like Lin Yuan was doing now.


At that time, she had just become a spirit qi professional and was interested and curious in any type of fey.


But now that she only had three years left to live, it would be cruel to contract another fey knowing that it would have to end its life three years later alongside her.


As troubled as Mystic Moon was, he was still stunned by what Lin Yuan said.


Besides Lin Yuan, there was no one else on earth who dared to say such a disrespectful thing to the Moon Empress. Even the other members of royalty would be deemed as insulting her if they recommended a fey to her.


But since it came from Lin Yuan, it was an act of filial piety rather than an insult.


Mystic Moon recovered when he saw the Moon Empress smiling back at Lin Yuan.



After spending over 50 years by the Moon Empress’ side as a Moon Envoy, Mystic Moon was well aware of how powerful her spiritual energy was.


Although she had already contracted many feys, she still had more than enough spiritual energy left to contract another fey.


As he thought about the Moon Empress’ a.r.s.enal of feys, Mystic Moon could not think of any fey that she needed.


Lin Yuan had said that the fey in the fey storage box was suitable for the Moon Empress.


If the Moon Empress had more than three years left to live, she would have immediately contracted the fey and started nurturing it out of her love for him.

...

But now, she only had three years left to live and was already struggling to handle the feys she already had.


Hence, there was no way she would form a contract with this fey that Lin Yuan was giving her.


Lin Yuan still did not know that she only had three years left.


But what would happen once three years pa.s.sed?


As he looked at the Moon Empress and Lin Yuan, tears welled up in his eyes for the first time in his life.


The Moon Empress was about to reject Lin Yuan. However, when she saw his hopeful expression, the words died on the tip of her tongue.


When she received the Bronze fey storage box from Lin Yuan, a surge of warmth that she only experienced after accepting Lin Yuan as her disciple washed over her.


She was about to keep the Bronze fey storage box away when Lin Yuan said, “Master, Zixi looks a little lifeless. The little creature in the Bronze fey storage box is about the same size as Zixi, and they should be able to play together.”


Lin Yuan reached over to pat Zixi.


He would often pat Zixi secretly when he was at the Radiant Moon Palace.


When Zixi was in a good mood, Zixi did not show an adverse reaction to him because he was the Moon Empress’ disciple. It would just close its eyes and let it pa.s.s.


But ever since Lin Yuan ate half of Zixi’s carrot, Zixi would hop far away whenever he tried to pat it. Occasionally, it would even bat away Lin Yuan’s hand.


Lin Yuan could not figure out what had happened to this stingy rabbit to make it act so coldly toward him all of a sudden.


Given Zixi’s listlessness, Lin Yuan felt that it would not be opposed to him petting it.


When he reached out his hand, however, Zixi immediately leaped over to the Moon Empress and glared at him out of the corner of its eye.


It seemed to be saying that it did not need any play buddy.


I’m having a difficult time because Xiyue only has three more years left to live. Who cares about a play buddy? Even if you spit out the carrot you ate now, I’ll still be as sad as I am now!


The Moon Empress did not look inside the Bronze fey storage box. Instead, she circulated her spiritual energy and summoned the Lifespan Mouse.


The moment that she summoned it, she, Mystic Moon, and Zixi were dumbfounded.


The Lifespan Mouse had spent all of its life in the Divine Wood Federation and was afraid of new people.


Now that it was suddenly in a strange place, all its hair stood on end.


Its eyes lit up upon spotting Lin Yuan, and it ran up his body to hide in the crook of his neck.


Lin Yuan did not attend to the s.h.i.+vering Lifespan Mouse. He could not shake the feeling that something was off.


If the issue was only with the two Silver Stamen Gold l.u.s.ter Ca.s.sias, Lin Yuan would not dwell too much on it.


However, Mystic Moon’s troubled demeanor and Zixi’s lifelessness were evidence of something serious.


Moreover, at the center of their strange behavior was the same person, the Moon Empress.


Could something have happened to his Master?


The Moon Empress recovered from her daze while Lin Yuan was deep in thought. She could not remember how long it had been since she was last dazed like this.


As a Cla.s.s 5 Creation Master, she immediately discovered the Lifespan Mouse’s Knotted Lifespan ability.


This moment automatically carved itself into the Moon Empress’ mind.


The Moon Empress had been in a resigned state of mind. But now, a spark erupted into a raging flame within her.


She finally did not have to live like a person about to expire.


At that moment, she seemed to return to the person she was ten years ago.


Excitement, joy, and marvel bubbled up within her. They took control of her and caused her to start trembling slightly.


Her feelings swirled within her in a tangled mess.


Eventually, she pushed all of them down and smiled a small yet warm smile at him.


She was just as quiet as when she had first found out that her life was coming to an end.


Ever since the Moon Empress accepted Lin Yuan as her disciple, she regarded him as her crowning glory. There was nothing more important to her.


Although she did not talk about her limited lifespan, she was extremely indignant about it.


She was most upset that she would not be able to see the bright future that Lin Yuan would make for himself.


But today, her indignance morphed into hope.


Thanks to Lin Yuan, her lifespan was going to change.


Somehow, in this strange reality, fate would align everything on its own.
