Cold Moon responded by looking at Elder Du with her deep eyes and said, “It seems like Cheng Wu has really taken up a role in your Royal Capital’s Creation Master Association. It is such a huge matter, but why didn’t you announce it?”
Elder Du quickly replied, “Elder Cheng has only arrived at the Royal Capital’s Creation Master Association recently. For the recent period of time, he doesn’t have any plans of becoming a Vice President. When Elder Cheng makes the decision, we will announce it.”
Cold Moon was rather surprised that Cheng Wu, a pinnacle Class 4 Creation Master, would actually choose to take the role as a Vice President in the Royal Capital’s Creation Master Association, instead of being an honorary elder. But after slight contemplation, Cold Moon understood.
“That is true. Since he already knows that he doesn’t have a chance of becoming a Class 5 Creation Master, he should plan for the Cheng Family’s younger generation. But if this Cheng Rui is really talented, why would Cheng Wu allow Cheng Rui to form a contract with the source-type lifeform, Spine Gu?”
Cold Moon’s words were clear and cold, but when Elder Du heard them, he revealed an awkward expression and didn’t know what to say for a moment.RêAd lateSt chapters at novelhall.com Only
Lin Yuan didn’t really understand the conversation between Cold Moon and Elder Du, but he knew that it would be extremely inappropriate for him to suddenly seek clarification.
Who would have expected for Cold Moon to look at Lin Yuan and ask, “Lin Yuan, do you know what is the source-type lifeform, Spine Gu?”
Lin Yuan shook his head. Cold Moon could see the desire for an answer in Lin Yuan’s eyes, so she explained, “The Spine Gu is a source-type lifeform, and after forming a contract with it, it won’t be stored within the spiritual spatial zone like other feys. The Spine Gu will reside within the contractor’s spinal column and empty out one of the spine segments as its nest. Those who form contracts with the Spine Gu will damage their innate vitality. Therefore, Creation Masters who form contracts with the Spine Gu will never reach Class 5.”
Lin Yuan was flabbergasted and didn’t know that the Spine Gu was such a source-type lifeform. But it was rather understandable too, as his Red Thorn was also very special. However, Red Thorn’s special trait was its need for fresh blood when forming the contract, and that it didn’t follow a specific model, requiring the contractor to specify the evolution.
Red Thorn’s peculiarity allowed Lin Yuan to quickly accept the existence of a special source-type lifeform like the Spine Gu.
Seeing that Lin Yuan had already digested her information, Cold Moon continued talking, “The Spine Gu might damage the contractor’s innate vitality to a certain extent, but to Creation Masters, they are supreme treasures. The Spine Gu can rapidly synthesize massive amounts of spiritual ingredients that the contractor consumes and form a concentrated spirit fluid within the body. When concocting spiritual ingredients, the Spine Gu can devour and catalyze all the spiritual ingredients accumulated in the body, allowing the effects of the spiritual ingredients to be pushed to the greatest extent.
After speaking, Xi Cha bowed to Cold Moon before returning to her corner. Xi Cha’s words had stunned Cheng Rui, whose face was as red as a pig’s liver.
Elder Du wanted to go up and console Cheng Rui, but Long Tao unexpectedly gave a big applause and laughed heartily. “Truly exciting!”
Cheng Rui’s eyes turned blood-red after getting agitated by the applause, and he glared at Long Tao. Long Tao didn’t think anything of it and raised his leg to pat off the inexistent dust on his boots. It felt as though Long Tao had casually swept off Cheng Rui’s glare.
“Long Tao, I swear that we will always be in hostile terms!”
Long Tao didn’t even bother about the enraged Cheng Rui and ignored those harsh words.
As Cheng Rui flipped out, a bone-chilling pressure nearly froze Cheng Rui in place. It caused Cheng Rui to stagger, and he was about to kneel on the ground.
Elder Du quickly went forward to help Cheng Rui and said to Cold Moon, “Envoy Cold Moon, Cheng Rui isn’t intentionally being presumptuous in the Radiant Moon Palace. This is Cheng Rui’s first visit, and he doesn’t know the rules. Will Envoy Cold Moon please forgive him?”
Cold Moon’s aura instantly burst out as she said with a chilly voice, “He doesn’t dare to be presumptuous, but it still happened. To speak of such threatening words in the Radiant Moon Palace, are you the one that asked him to do it? Or did you not teach him the rules of the Radiant Moon Palace before bringing him here?”
Cold sweat was dripping off Elder Du’s head.
During this decade, the Moon Empress had been in seclusion, and the two Moon Envoys had been quietly cultivating in the Leaning Moon Mountain. Thus, they rarely ventured into the world.
How could Elder Du have forgotten about Envoy Cold Moon’s temperament?
One of the aristocrats in the Royal Capital, Marquis Jing Shi, had been insufferably arrogant 15 years ago and had been disrespectful to Envoy Cold Moon. She had simply broken his legs, and he had been sitting in the wheelchair ever since.
On that night, Marquis Jing Shi’s residence had been completely frozen. The marquis residence hall had been cleaved into two, and no one knew what had happened.
Given Marquis Jing Shi’s strength as a high-ranked king-class expert, his legs should have already recovered by now, but he didn’t dare to stand back up from the wheelchair until now. He had been sitting in the wheelchair for 15 years, and there wasn’t a need to explain why.
