After Lin Yuan held the sacred source lifeform in his hand, the Moon Empress spoke to Lin Yuan in a serious tone.
"In three years, if you want to try to contract a sacred source lifeform with your soul, you must be by my side. I will protect you."
As the Moon Empress spoke, she could not help but think about the time when Lin Yuan had been spat out by the dimensional rift.
The extent to which his soul had been shattered by the sacred source lifeform's impact.
The Moon Empress had insisted that Lin Yuan be by her side the next time he tried to contract a sacred source lifeform. It was not that only by protecting Lin Yuan would he be able to increase his chances of contracting a second sacred source lifeform.
The soul was not like a talent.
Even those with poor talent, as long as they worked hard enough, they could achieve the same results as those with high talent through hard work.
However, the gap between souls was already determined from birth. It was a chasm that could not be crossed.
Even the rarest spiritual ingredient could only protect the contractor's soul from the sacred source lifeform's impact when a spirit qi professional tried to contract a second sacred source lifeform.
It could not increase the chances of contracting a second sacred source lifeform.
The Moon Empress had said this because she did not want Lin Yuan to experience a second time when his soul was on the brink of shattering.
Upon hearing the Moon Empress' caring words, Lin Yuan smiled brightly, revealing his white teeth. He spoke as though he was making a promise.
"Don't worry, Master. When I try to contract a second sacred source lifeform, I will definitely be by your side."
When the Moon Empress heard Lin Yuan's childish smile and guaranteed tone, she was slightly startled.
Then, she smiled from the bottom of her heart.
The Moon Empress had always felt that Lin Yuan was a little mature.
Even though Lin Yuan looked like an 18-year-old handsome youth, be it the way he spoke or the way he did things, it was more like a seasoned adult.
The Moon Empress had always felt a little melancholic about this.
If Lin Yuan was someone else's disciple, the Moon Empress might admire his way of speaking and doing things.
However, Lin Yuan was her disciple. When it came to her disciple, the Moon Empress hoped that Lin Yuan would not put so many burdens on her shoulders.
As Lin Yuan's Master, the Moon Empress hoped that Lin Yuan would be like an 18-year-old youth and live a carefree life.
Now that Lin Yuan had inadvertently revealed his youthful side, the Moon Empress could not help but feel that it was very beautiful.
Lin Yuan stored the sacred source lifeform in the amber-button-shaped Diamond fey storage box and drank the jujube cheese that had the pure aroma of jujube flowers.
Lin Yuan could not help but think about how he should use this sacred source lifeform.
He raised his head and looked at Chu Ci, who was sitting on the table and filling a bowl with jujubes for Cold Moon.
Lin Yuan watched as she scooped the jujube cheese and suddenly reflected on himself.
It could be said that as the Moon Empress' disciple, he had always been receiving meticulous care from his Master.
He had also taken a lot of good things from the Radiant Moon Palace before, but every time he brought good things to the Radiant Moon Palace, the Radiant Moon Palace wouldn't accept it.
The Moon Empress would always say, "Why did you take things when you came to your own home? Master has everything here." Then, she would ask him to take it back.
Gradually, Lin Yuan stopped taking things from the Radiant Moon Palace.
But now, Lin Yuan felt that he had been thinking about something wrong. He had not expected to be taught a lesson by his younger sister.
He had never done something as heartwarming as Chu Ci filling a bowl of jujubes for Cold Moon for his Master, the Moon Empress.
Just as Lin Yuan was looking at Chu Ci, Cold Moon, who was next to her, looked at Lin Yuan with a strange expression.
Cold Moon hesitated for a few seconds before saying, "Your Highness, Chu Ci still has a few more days.
She will only be 16 after the New Year, and there is still a long way to go before she turns 20. There is no hurry to contract a sacred source lifeform.
"When the time comes, as her Master, I will also prepare a sacred source lifeform for Chu Ci."
When Lin Yuan heard Cold Moon's words, he felt that Cold Moon was a little like a lioness protecting her cubs on the prairie.
Although Cold Moon did not say it explicitly, Lin Yuan could see her expression and tone.
He could feel Cold Moon's possessiveness toward Chu Ci.
Lin Yuan smiled awkwardly. He could not help but feel that after Chu Ci had a Master, it was a little difficult for him, as her brother, to give her anything.
However, from Cold Moon's words, Lin Yuan could feel that she cared about Chu Ci.
"Aunt Cold Moon, I will have to trouble you in the future!"
When Cold Moon heard Lin Yuan's words, the coldness that had covered her face when she heard the words "Seventh Page War" immediately melted.
Her usually expressionless face revealed a rare smile.
"Lin Yuan, don't worry."
This time, Cold Moon did not call Lin Yuan 'Young Lord'. Instead, she called him by his name.
Therefore, Cold Moon did not treat Lin Yuan as the Young Lord of the Radiant Moon Palace. She only treated him as her disciple Chu Ci's brother.
Cold Moon's "don't worry" was in response to Lin Yuan's request as Chu Ci's brother.
Lin Yuan was not only happy that Chu Ci could become Cold Moon's disciple, but he also felt at ease.
Just like when he had been ambushed by Cheng Wu in the Royal Capital's suburbs and his life had been hanging by a thread.
Lin Yuan had subconsciously thought about what Chu Ci would do if he really died.
However, now that Chu Ci had Cold Moon as her Master, Lin Yuan did not need to worry about Chu Ci's safety and life even if his life was hanging by a thread.
Lin Yuan had looked at Chu Ci previously because the first person he had thought of after obtaining another sacred source lifeform was his younger sister.
However, Lin Yuan had never thought of letting Chu Ci contract a sacred source lifeform before she turned 20.
His Master, the Moon Empress, had mentioned many times that spirit qi professionals had to wait until their souls had matured before they could contract a sacred source lifeform. There must be a reason for this.
This meant that contracting a sacred source lifeform before a spirit qi professional's soul matured at the age of 20 would be extremely harmful to the spirit qi professional's soul.
Lin Yuan had Morbius, which had allowed him to survive through the reddish-gold light that enveloped the depths of his soul.
However, Morbius was an existence that only he had.
Lin Yuan was certain that Chu Ci had always been pure and clean since she was born. She did not have a Companion Fey like Morbius.
Since Lin Yuan did not need to care about Chu Ci, he made a choice about the sacred source lifeform.
Among the people in his faction, he felt that the most suitable candidates were Liu Jie and the Mother of Bloodbath.
However, compared to the Mother of Bloodbath, Lin Yuan was more inclined to let Liu Jie contract this sacred source lifeform.
The first choice was even better.
