Although Su Yiren’s flesh and soul, as well as the Absolute Love Poppy, had been completely healed, she was still covered with dirt and dried blood.

When the vitality healed all her injuries, the infected cells quickly died and were discharged as pus. Thus, she was sticky all over, and her clothes seemed to be stuck to her body.

Moreover, the sticky substances had a foul smell that even caused Su Yiren to wrinkle her nose in disgust.

She instinctively took a few steps back to put space between her and Lin Yuan as she was afraid that Lin Yuan would get a whiff of her odor.

Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow and said, “You probably want a shower badly now. Coincidentally, we’re going to the capital to find a tree castle. You can help to bathe these two children as well. Once you’re all clean, we can have a chat.”

Su Yiren hurriedly nodded.

She did not swear her loyalty to Lin Yuan because she had lost all her pride after struggling to survive in the Divine Wood Federation but because she was resigned to her circumstance and decided to make the best choice for her future.

It would be too unreasonable to expect her to talk to Lin Yuan while she was still covered with dirt.

Su Yiren was touched that Lin Yuan was able to interpret her body language to learn how she was thinking and offer gestures that were for her benefit.

She would not find it torturous to work under such a person.

Just as Su Yiren was about to thank him, she heard a chittering noise.

A small mouse popped out of the pile of leaves near Su Yiren. It looked around furtively.

Once it was certain that it was far enough from Lin Yuan and the rest, it raised the broken twig it had just picked up.

Lin Yuan’s eyes lit up when he saw the mouse. It looked exactly like the one he had seen when he first arrived at the Divine Wood Federation.

The amber-button-shaped Source Sand fell from Lin Yuan’s sleeve and dove into the ground. Soon, threads of gravel wrapped around and trapped the Flower Branch Mouse.

Lin Yuan brought the Flower Branch Mouse over to him, and it immediately went into hysterics.

He circulated his spiritual power and used an almost undetectable thread of spirit qi to calm the panicking Flower Branch Mouse. It did not take long for the Flower Branch Mouse to calm down.

Even when Lin Yuan instructed the Source Sand to release the Flower Branch Mouse, it obediently rested in his hand.

Lin Yuan was in no rush to evolve the Flower Branch Mouse.

Although Su Yiren had already sworn her loyalty to Lin Yuan and became someone that Lin Yuan could trust, there were still some things that she did not need to know.

When Su Yiren saw Lin Yuan’s interest in the Flower Branch Mouse, she said, “Lord, there are many types of mice that appear in the slums. This type of mouse with brown fur prefers independence. It often picks leaves and fruits by itself. In the slums, it also doesn’t transmit diseases. During the time that I’ve been here, I’ve seen this type of mouse at least 20 times.”

Su Yiren found it slightly strange as she did not understand why this mouse that was not even a fey would interest Lin Yuan.

In Su Yiren’s eyes, this type of mouse was worthless.

If it were valuable, the native elites of the Divine Wood Federation would not allow it to roam around the slums.

Lin Yuan’s eyes lit up when he heard what Su Yiren said.

He had guessed from the robbers’ reactions that the Flower Branch Mouse was very common. However, he did not expect to find it roaming in a slum.

Now he knew why the scout had looked at the Flower Branch Mouse on his shoulder with disdain.

However, the Flower Branch Mouse was a blessing to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan summoned Blackie and rode off to the capital with Liu Jie, Ji Feng, Little Flower, Little Grass, and Su Yiren.

Ji Feng booked an entire tree castle.

Lin Yuan had chosen a luxurious and family-style tree castle. There was only one level in the entire tree castle. There were numerous bedrooms around the large living room. This tree castle was mostly rented out to native elites who wanted to host banquets.

Su Yiren entered the tree castle. Before she even took a sip of water, she led Little Flower and Little Grass into the bathroom to shower.

At this moment, Lin Yuan called out to Su Yiren, “Su Yiren, do you have clothes to change into? If not, I have some fabric that you can sew into simple garments.”

Su Yiren raised her wrist, and Lin Yuan saw that there was a round orange-golden disk.

Lin Yuan was very familiar with this round orange-golden disk. It was exactly the same as the one he had obtained inside the Class 3 abyss dimensional rift that had appeared in the Royal Capital.

However, the one hanging off Su Yiren’s wrist was much smaller and more intricate than the one that Lin Yuan had obtained.

At first, Lin Yuan thought that people from the Dark Continent had targeted the Radiance Federation.

But later, he discovered from the evolving water world dimensional rift at the shores of Indigo Azure City that everything had been caused by Seventh Page War’s scheme.

From her life experience that he had seen during the Astronomical Parliament’s parliamentary meeting, Lin Yuan knew that the Seven States of Darkness had been destroyed, and the Dark Continent was under Seventh Page War’s control.

This was why so many people from the Dark Continent had appeared at the evolving water world dimensional rift.

Seventh Page War’s subordinates could order the spirit qi professionals from the Dark Continent around.

It was likely that the fall of the Seven States of Darkness and the Dark Continent was not solely due to Seventh Page War’s actions.

Lin Yuan still did not have any plans to enter the Dark Continent. Hence, there was no need to tell Su Yiren about the news he had regarding Tower Canon and the Dark Continent.

Su Yiren noticed Lin Yuan had been looking at the round orange-gold disk on her wrist and said, “This is spatial equipment from where I’m from. It can store both living and nonliving things. It’s about the size of four training fields. Since my spirit and soul had been injured, I couldn’t make use of it. But now I can. I have many of my daily clothes stored in the spatial disk.”

Lin Yuan did not say anything after he heard what Su Yiren said.
