Chapter 2826 Secret Uncovered!
In truth, Fan Lou could have kept the Light Wind Wolves with him.
If he brought these Light Wind Wolves, who were stronger than him, to meet Lin Yuan, he would kill them. Then, Fan Lou would act surprised, and no one would see through him.
He was completely out of his comfort zone in the Lonely River and was incapable of laying a hand on the Light Wind Wolves, who were stronger than him.
However, logic convinced Fan Lou not to do this because he was afraid it would anger Lin Yuan. If his actions angered Lin Yuan, everything would be for naught!
The Dark Pufferfish wanted to obtain more benefits from Fan Lou. Hence, they would give him sufficient time to ruminate and ensure that his group was safe while they were in the Lonely River.
The Dark Pufferfish knew that Fan Lou and his group had docked on land and were exploring the barren area known as North of the Lonely River.
The Dark Pufferfish did not try to stop them.
Firstly, the Dark Pufferfish could not leave water for long periods as it would affect their power.
Additionally, the resources in North of the Lonely River were far and few. There were only a few resources to be found in the Bone-Corroding Valley of the western region.
The King Blood Jackals ruled over the Bone-Corroding Valley. Their bloodline had the ability of retrospective tracing and had been fearsome since ancient times.
There were very few King Blood Jackals, but all of them were obsessed with wealth and would never allow anyone to touch the sea of resources they controlled!
Hence, there were almost no resources in North of the Lonely River that were worth harvesting.
The Chaos Wind Demon Wolf group was definitely unaware of this. Otherwise, they would not have docked and begun searching the area.
Although resources were scarce in North of the Lonely River, there were a fair number of species. The species controlled numerous villages and collected extremely inferior faith power.
The Dark Pufferfish felt that these terrestrial species would never be able to prosper. The map that Fan Lou had was one that Feng Qing had asked from the Bloodians. Hence, he was aware of the King Blood Jackals' existence.
During his meeting with Lin Yuan, Fan Lou also intended to use the map as evidence of his accomplishments!
The Bloodians were an elite species and had an extremely high quality of life.
They were also very skilled at attacking and combat. Hence, they paid close attention to the details of their maps.
However, this map drawn up by the Bloodians stopped at the Bone-Corroding Valley, which was under the King Blood Jackals' control. This meant that the Bloodians had failed to break into the King Blood Jackals' territory and continue exploring the area beyond.
Jackal species had similar bloodlines to wolf species.
The King Blood Jackals' bloodline was much nobler than that of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.
The Chaos Wind Demon Wolves came from the Moon-Worshiping Wolves, but their bloodline had mutated. The mutation was like a shackle that limited them and prevented them from ever being able to reach the same level as the Moon-Worshiping Wolves.
Once the King Blood Jackals' bloodline reached a certain level, they would be able to transform into the Emperor Blood Jackals.
If the King Blood Jackals did not have such a small population, located in such a remote area, and were so uninterested in conflict, they would definitely have made it onto the Species Ranking!
Before Feng Qing injected the Chaos Wind Demon Wolf bloodline into Fan Lou, his bloodline was extremely inferior. He could swap out his bloodline for a higher level one, but attaining the King Blood Jackal bloodline was an impossibility!
If he obtained the King Blood Jackal bloodline, he would not be able to answer to Feng Qing when he returned.
If he did not have the Chaos Wind Demon Wolf bloodline, he would not be considered a Chaos Wind Demon Wolf.
Regardless of how much Feng Qing trusted him, he would never rely on him again.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNonetheless, everything would be determined by Lin Yuan's plans for him. Everything about him was contingent on the decisions that Lin Yuan made.
As a World Emperor/Divine Kingdom expert, Fan Lou could travel extremely quickly when he used his full effort.
Fan Lou followed the guide and arrived at a valley just outside of a village.
A curious expression appeared on Fan Lou's face.
This was the location he and Lin Yuan had agreed on. The jade in his hand had also led him here.
Was a bigshot like Lin Yuan truly living in that nearby village? It did not suit his identity at all.
At that moment, Fan Lou sensed an energy fluctuation from the sky.
The energy fluctuation had been intentionally released by Winter.
There was no need for Winter to hide and be sneaky when he was dealing with someone as weak as Fan Lou.
After releasing his aura and getting Fan Lou to notice him, he would begin guiding Fan Lou as per Lin Yuan's instructions.
The moment that Fan Lou saw Winter, he could not stop terror from surfacing on his face.
However, the terrified expression soon changed to one of suspicion and respect.
Fan Lou would never be able to forget how Winter had stopped Kong Huan's massacre atop the Abyssal Beast's back by just lifting his hand.
Technically, Winter was his savior. Otherwise, he would have been killed by Kong Huan that day.
However, Fan Lou could not bring himself to feel thankful to Winter.
Fan Lou had not expected Winter to appear in the sky. He could not see anything in the sky that Winter could land on.
Apart from his fear, Fan Lou was extremely respectful toward Winter because he was an expert by Lin Yuan's side.
"Lord Winter, I'm glad to see you again!"
At the end of the day, visitors needed to be treated with respect. Winter's serene eyes swept over Fan Lou before he raised his hand and pointed at Fan Lou.
Fan Lou was completely incapable of resisting as Winter picked his body up from the ground, and the two began soaring through the air together.
From the moment that Fan Lou touched the clouds, he sensed that something was different about these clouds.
It did not take long for a majestic scene to appear before Fan Lou's eyes.
Fan Lou felt himself being enveloped by spirit qi that was even purer than what was in the external space.
As the captain of a Boundary Patrol Team under Honor Absent Palace, Fan Lou's bloodline did not particularly stand out.
However, he did have a wealth of experience and insight.
Nonetheless, he had never seen such a paradise before!
He had visited Honor Absent Palace's main palace before. It was spectacular. That was undeniable.
However, the decoration in Honor Absent Palace had been far from the level of exquisite opulence atop this giant whale.
Fan Lou had made guesses about Lin Yuan's background many times. But the more he learned about Lin Yuan, the more Fan Lou realized that his understanding was lacking.
Fan Lou racked his brain but still failed to hypothesize where Lin Yuan came from.
Winter walked over to Lin Yuan and stood next to him.
Lin Yuan sensed Fan Lou's state before saying with a smile, "Many years have passed since we parted. You look like you're in a good state and haven't suffered in the past few years."
Lin Yuan raised his hand and pointed at a nearby chair. "Sit. The tea is still steaming, so have it while it's hot."
Fan Lou could tell that Lin Yuan was treating him graciously, but he was also aware of his identity. He was a servant whose soul was in Lin Yuan's control. Under no circumstances could he sit in front of Lin Yuan as though they were equals!
Even an expert like Winter was standing behind Lin Yuan!
Fan Lou would never dare to compare himself with Winter, nor would he dare to put on airs when Winter was present.
"Master, I'm okay with talking while standing! Thanks to the arrangements you made for me, I am now the most favored individual in Feng Qing, a member of the Honor Absent Parliament's circle! This time, I specially asked him to ask the Bloodians for a map of the area around the Lonely River!"
Fan Lou took out the map and held it out before bowing as a means of offering it up to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow and narrowed his eyes as he stared at Fan Lou.
He received the map and saw that there were locations that were clearly marked out.
It could be said that with this map, Lin Yuan's reason for asking Fan Lou to come had been fulfilled.
Knowing that Fan Lou could think this far and make requests to Feng Qing for his sake improved Lin Yuan's impression of him.
"This map is proof of your intentions. I will send people to verify the contents of this map."
While Lin Yuan spoke, he took out a brocade sack and tossed it at Fan Lou. It contained exactly 100 spirit qi crystals.
These spirit qi crystals filled with pure spirit qi were exactly the rare resource that Fan Lou needed to increase his power.
With a raise of his hand, Lin Yuan summoned Genius.
Lin Yuan had never summoned a fey in front of Fan Lou until now. Hence, Fan Lou had been unaware that Lin Yuan was a spirit contractor.
Yet, Fan Lou was not surprised to learn that Lin Yuan was a spirit contractor. He was curious to know the reason for Lin Yuan summoning his fey.
Lin Yuan did not want Fan Lou to report every single detail he had access to.
Firstly, Lin Yuan did not know what had happened to Fan Lou or how his experiences had played out.
Secondly, asking him questions would waste a lot of Lin Yuan's time. It would be far easier to use Genius' Connected Tails to understand his experiences.
"Genius will be using an ability on you. Do not use your spiritual energy or soul energy to put up a block."
Fan Lou nodded with half-understanding.
The moment Genius used Connected Tails to link up with Fan Lou, the latter immediately understood the ability that Lin Yuan had mentioned.
All the hair on Fan Lou's body stood up. He had never expected such a thing to happen!
Fan Lou had not done anything wrong. He had done his best to assist Lin Yuan in safeguarding the secret that was the Class 2 world.
However, because there were times he needed to carry out tasks for Feng Qing as his subordinate, he could not pay constant attention to the Class 2 world.
This sudden evaluation had been Fan Lou's nightmare. Regardless of how perfect of a job he had done, it was still a nightmare that had tormented him for a very long time. He was terrified of Lin Yuan finding out about this!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGiven the circumstances, it seemed that Lin Yuan already knew!
When all the hair on Fan Lou's body stood up, Winter's eyes landed on him.
Lin Yuan's expression changed multiple times as well. He thought, It's a good thing I didn't help more experts or feys to evolve before I left the main world. Otherwise, this sudden inspection would definitely have resulted in the main world catching the attention of the Sky Beyond the Clouds' experts.
This discovery shocked and angered Lin Yuan.
But from Fan Lou's memory, Lin Yuan knew that Fan Lou had indeed done his best to carry out the task he had been given. There was no way that Fan Lou could have predicted this unexpected situation, so there was no need to blame him for it.
Now that Lin Yuan was in the Sky Beyond the Clouds, he could use his power to protect the main world.
When Genius severed the connection of Connected Tails, Fan Lou fell to his knees and began begging Lin Yuan for mercy.
Lin Yuan looked down at Fan Lou, who had terror written all over his face and tears streaming down his face. He knew that Fan Lou truly felt guilty and was not putting on a pretense of begging for his life.
Lin Yuan was not angry that Fan Lou had failed to be present during the sudden inspection. Another reason for Fan Lou remaining by Feng Qing's side was so he could secure his position as the captain of the Sixth Boundary Patrol Team. Without Feng Qing supporting Fan Lou, Fan Lou would not be able to hold on to his position.
Lin Yuan was angry that Fan Lou had not notified him immediately when the matter happened.
If Fan Lou had notified Winter immediately through the jade crystal, he could have learned of the situation in advance.
Although Lin Yuan did not blame Fan Lou, necessary punishment needed to be doled out.
When Fan Lou noticed that Lin Yuan had not responded to his pleas, he became even more alarmed.
Just as Fan Lou was about to climb toward Lin Yuan's leg and continue begging fervently, he heard Lin Yuan say, "Do you know where you went wrong?"
Lin Yuan did not give Fan Lou the chance to reply before he continued. "You erred by failing to notify me immediately! You have to remember that I can find out anything about your experiences at any time.
"I won't forget your contributions and will give you a bright future. I hope that going forward, you will get rid of any unsavory thoughts. Otherwise, I will not hesitate to swap you out! There are many people in the Sky Beyond the Clouds who can take your place!"
Fan Lou froze when he heard that.
Lin Yuan's tone was strict, but Fan Lou could tell that Lin Yuan had forgiven him.
Fan Lou hurriedly said, "Master, don't worry. From now on, I will report every matter to you, big or small!"
Lin Yuan took another two sips of the tea that had yet to go cold before saying softly, "Stand up to speak. Hold onto this paper. Once you leave, you can experiment with communicating with me through this piece of paper.
"If you are able to communicate with me through this paper, you won't need to use Winter's jade crystal anymore. You can keep the jade crystal and use it when you're in danger."
Lin Yuan was giving Fan Lou a Thoughts Letter Paper.
In the main world, the Thoughts Letter Paper was the best tool used among Lin Yuan's subordinates.
It would be just as useful in the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
However, Lin Yuan was unsure of the scope that the Thoughts Letter Paper could cover.
The Sky Beyond the Clouds was much larger than the main world.
Although the Elemental Paper had reached World Emperor/Divine Kingdom, Lin Yuan was unsure if he would be able to communicate with Fan Lou while he was here in North of the Lonely River.
Lin Yuan intended to use Fan Lou to test the Thoughts Letter Paper. If he could communicate with Fan Lou through the Thoughts Letter Paper, it could become a key tool!
Fan Lou did not think much when he received the paper from Lin Yuan.
There were many treasures for transmission. Fan Lou would not be at all surprised if Lin Yuan could produce any of such treasures.
Fan Lou cared most about the part where Lin Yuan said that the jade crystal would be able to protect him!
