Chapter 1424: Su Yiren’s Rescue

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At this moment, Su Yiren heard the rumble of footsteps coming from afar. The sound was stable and not rushed. It resembled the sound of a prince leisurely strolling in his garden.

Su Yiren immediately became nervous.

From the footsteps, Su Yiren knew that more than one person was approaching.

It was already a struggle for her to fend off one person, much less multiple people.

She sighed to herself and stood up without picking up the dagger.

Su Yiren lowered her head. Instead of looking ahead, she quietly stared at her feet.

Perhaps after my death, I’ll turn into a pile of dirt like the ground like the Dark Federation.

When Su Yiren reached a breaking point and decided to free herself in death, a pair of shoes with clouds embroidered on them entered her vision.

This pair of white shoes stunned Su Yiren because such shoes should never appear in the slums.

At that moment, she heard a clear voice say from above her, “If you can still pick up the long dagger, don’t leave it lying on the ground.”

Su Yiren’s eyes widened when she heard the voice. Her eyes shone with unspeakable delight, and the gray mist was replaced with a kaleidoscope of color.

Her head snapped up, and her gaze met with a pair of kind black eyes.

She had heard Lin Yuan’s voice during the Astronomical Parliament’s parliamentary meeting, and the voice had occupied many of her dreams in the following days.

Now that she was hearing it again, she felt as though both her soul and body had been saved.

She once had hope, but it had been slowly chipped away until all she was left with was desperation. But now that she could see the light at the end of the tunnel again, she felt as though she had just been reborn.

Su Yiren struggled to get to her feet before Lin Yuan landed. However, every part of her body was in bad shape, and she was unable to stand.

After struggling for some time, she ascertained that she would not be able to climb to her feet. Despite her pain, Su Yiren gripped the long dagger with her right hand. It seemed she had something to say to Lin Yuan but could not muster her strength.

Little Flower and Little Grass had also lived in a slum and had encountered their fair share of injured scavengers.

After Little Flower saw Su Yiren, she instinctively wanted to tug at the leaves on her body. However, when her hand touched her clothes, she realized that she was no longer wearing clothes woven from leaves but from brocade. Moreover, her clothes had been woven by Lin Yuan.

Little Grass held Liu Jie’s hand tightly as he looked between Lin Yuan and Liu Jie. It seemed that he wanted to speak but was struggling to do so.

Little Grass looked at Little Flower with pleading eyes.

Liu Jie noticed Little Flower and Little Grass’ reactions.

Lin Yuan and Liu Jie were happy but shocked at the same time.

Little Flower and Little Grass had been living in a harsh environment. They were family, and it was to be expected that they cared about each other. However, they were even compassionate and empathetic toward scavengers.

This was a rare virtue of existing in such a cruel environment.

They must have received help from kind people during their time in the slum.

However, the kindness and empathy they received had already been scrubbed away by the wickedness of life.

Lin Yuan calmly gazed at Su Yiren’s face. Her face was swollen and covered with dirt to the point that he could no longer make out her true features. To put it in a cruel yet truthful way, she looked pathetic.

He looked at the Prior Decree Sleeping Lotus. The Prior Decree Sleeping Lotus noticed Lin Yuan’s gaze and said, “Lord, I don’t have the ability to heal injuries of the flesh. When I found this place yesterday night, her injuries were already this serious. In order to make sure she made it until you arrived, I even got rid of some of the scavengers that were targeting her. Otherwise, she would have died last night.”

Lin Yuan nodded and shook his hand. A green beam landed on Su Yiren’s body.

With Lin Yuan’s treatment, Su Yiren’s injuries quickly healed. Now that she was fully healed, she literally became smaller. This proved how serious her swelling had been.

She was about to stand up when her soul injury sent her into another fit. She let out a grunt of pain, curled up, and started trembling.

Lin Yuan said to Ji Feng, “Ji Feng, tell the Prior Decree Sleeping Lotus to try and heal her soul injury. Her soul injury is linked to her almost-dead sacred source lifeform, so it might be difficult to heal her.”

When Ji Feng heard what Lin Yuan said, he immediately ordered the Prior Decree Sleeping Lotus to plant a soul seed in Su Yiren’s soul.

Once the soul seed entered Su Yiren’s soul, Ji Feng and the Prior Decree Sleeping Lotus’ expressions turned into ones of shock.

They realized that Su Yiren’s soul was cracked all over. An unknown and slightly withered plant was at the center of her soul.

The soul power from the soul seed activated the plant and caused its roots to move away gently.

The Prior Decree Sleeping Lotus immediately exploded the soul seed and used the energy from the soul seed to nourish Su Yiren’s soul. It completely ignored how much soul energy was being used up.

This nourishment caused Su Yiren to slowly stop trembling. However, the pain was still causing her to sweat profusely. Nonetheless, she could endure this level of pain.

It was not difficult for the Myth III Prior Decree Sleeping Lotus to use one soul seed.

The Prior Decree Sleeping Lotus planted and exploded six consecutive soul seeds in Su Yiren.

Soon, Su Yiren’s injury became mostly healed. Alas, the plant did not show any signs of recovery.

The Prior Decree Sleeping Lotus used energy from its soul, not true soul power. The plant needed a large amount of vitality and soul power to heal. The Prior Decree Sleeping Lotus did not have these.

Hence, it said to Lin Yuan, “Lord, her soul is 80% healed. But in order to fully heal it, we need to heal her sacred source lifeform. This will require a large amount of vitality and soul power. What do you think we should do?”
