Moen, who had completely accepted the authority of the Goddess of the Night, was equivalent to a new original witch. Her blessing shone on Yue Sefu through the aether like moonlight.
Under the watery moonlight, Yue Sefu's body recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye, leaving no trace behind.
Although Moen did not understand the cause and effect, Yue Sefu was a customer of the bookstore. Since Boss Lin was not around, as an assistant, she had to take care of the business of the bookstore.
Yue Sefu was a Radiant Grand Knight of the Mystic Tower, but he was seriously injured and did not return to the Mystic Tower.
The problem was obvious.
Moen naturally could not let the Mystic Tower notice this place.
Yue Sefu woke up from the chaos and felt the intense pain in his body gradually become clearer, as if the pain of burning had just reached his body. However, he only frowned slightly. In his many years of life as a knight, this pain was nothing.
His five senses began to recover. The slightly moist smell of books and the rich smell of milk tea reached the tip of his nose. He slowly opened his eyes and saw a somewhat familiar ceiling.
"You're finally awake." A girl's tired voice came into his ears. "Grand Knight Yue Sefu."
Yue Sefu looked at Prima with difficulty, and the girl's figure slowly reflected in his eyes.
"This is..." Remember the website: m.9biquge.com.
Yue Sefu was temporarily unable to speak naturally because of his newly formed vocal cords.
But in fact, he almost recognized it. This is... Boss Lin's bookstore?
Prima said seriously, "This is Boss Lin's bookstore. That Knight Commander Winston asked me to send you here to recuperate."
"Boss Lin means...?"
Prima thought for a moment. Although it should be Vice President Andrew who sent me here, it must be Boss Lin's instructions, so it's not wrong to say that it was Boss Lin who asked me to come here... Prima confirmed her thoughts in her heart.
"Yes." She answered seriously.
Hearing Prima's answer, Yue Sefu had mixed feelings. At the same time, he clearly felt that some kind of power of a higher existence still remained in his body.
Yue Sefu, who had become a God, naturally knew where this power came from.
This is the authority of the night and the moon. Only they can hide everything and restore his body … Yue Sefu quickly looked up and saw Moen sitting quietly at the bar counter.
"Thank you very much." Yue Sefu said with difficulty. The previous doubts in his heart were solved, followed by shock — even the Original Witch was willing to be the assistant of the owner of the bookstore.
"You don't have to thank me. You are a regular customer of the bookstore."
Moen replied calmly, "As an assistant, this is my job. If there's nothing else, you can continue to rest. I still have things to do."
The so-called thing was, of course, to continue to research new milk tea recipes.
After saying goodbye to Moen, Prima reluctantly left.
Yue Sefu, who was still recovering his body, lay on the recliner with empty eyes. Countless thoughts spontaneously came to his mind after narrowly escaping death. He could not help but think carefully about the battle with Wang Erde.
He had completely decided to die together with Wang Erde and end everything in this fate. He had never thought that he would survive this battle … and be casually saved by Mr. Lin.
There might not be a winner in this battle, but for the first time, Yue Sefu understood the true horror.
The realm of a God was something that Yue Sefu had always dreamed of but could not reach. Now that he had completely entered the realm of a God, he had a better understanding of what the existence beyond a God was.
Casually reversing time and being able to control the situation of a battle from thousands of miles away without batting an eyelid — this kind of Lin Jie was no longer something that Yue Sefu could imagine. The little tricks of the Miyie Tower were simply child's play in Boss Lin's eyes. How powerful was this …
But between me and Wang Erde, why did Boss Lin choose me?
"Miyie Tower …"
Yue Sefu suddenly muttered these three words softly.
He had fought bloody battles for the Miyie Tower for so many years, only to discover that he was only a tool used by the Miyie Tower to speculate about Boss Lin. Of course, he could not say that he did not feel anything.
But, surprisingly, he was very calm.
Perhaps it was because he had expected this from the start. Ever since his wife died, he had been out on missions day and night, and the Miyie Tower had never stopped him.
Yue Sefu stared blankly at the ceiling … If they had sent me to the Miyie Tower when I was heavily injured, how would they have used me?
"Thank you, Winston."
Yue Sefu sighed. The pain in his body could no longer compare to the pain in his heart. He could not help but smile bitterly. He had done his best to protect justice and the Miyie Tower, but only now did he realize how laughable he had been.
No matter what, the Yue Sefu that he had protected for the Miyie Tower was already dead … The Yue Sefu now was saved by Boss Lin.
He stared speechlessly at the ceiling, thinking of Melissa's pretty face —
He also thought of her dazzling smile in the dim light when she was about to die. Yue Sefu felt that it was time for him to let go.
Melissa was already capable enough to hold her own. Rather than repeating the same mistakes as Yue Sefu, it was better to leave a way out from the start.
Hatred was the best nourishment for growth. But this time, Yue Sefu would not let the Miyie Tower control their fate.

A16 Manor.
The brief and unknown earthquake did not affect these wealthy people's gathering. To the wealthy Ji family, comforting the guests was a simple matter.
But all good things must come to an end.
The carnival that had lasted for a few days was about to come to an end. Lin Jie had presented his gifts and negotiated the price of the books with Luo Er.
In the past few days, Ji Bonong and his daughter had treated Lin Jie as a distinguished guest. Even the ignorant onlookers understood that this seemingly ordinary bookstore owner was not simple.
But no matter how they fawned over him, whether they beat around the bush or expressed their thoughts, Lin Jie treated them as usual, making them feel even more mysterious and unable to decipher his intentions.
This made them feel that this person's shrewdness was unfathomable.
At that time, after Lin Jie had given the gift, he very calmly began the bargaining technique that he had been brewing in his heart for a long time. However, it turned out that all his preparations were in vain, because no matter what he asked for, the Ji father and daughter listened to his every word.
Lin Jie felt rather guilty, wondering if he had gone overboard. In the end, he had only tried the immature idea of a thirty-seventy split. But Lin Jie, who had already thought of various reasons to refute him, looked at Ji Bonong in astonishment. "Even if I don't earn a single cent, I will let Mr. Lin spread his knowledge!" Her expression was resolute and resolute. Alright, actually, she had happily agreed to his request.
Lin Jie actually felt a bit of guilt that he hadn't felt in many years. He even felt a bit weak.
"This cooperation couldn't be more pleasant."
Ji Bonong hurriedly reached out his hand and excitedly shook Boss Lin's hand. "Boss Lin, you are so generous, kind, and benevolent. I look forward to working with you in the future. I will definitely do my best to serve you."
You're the generous one, right? Or are all the leeks in this world so easy to cut? If I said a fifty-ninety split, Ji Bonong would probably agree. But for the sake of more cooperation in the future … Lin Jie restrained himself.
Uh … It seems that I set my image a bit too high in their hearts.
Originally, negotiating the price should have been the highlight of the entire banquet, but Ji Bonong played it down so casually. It was as if everything was over and the last thing was just a formality.
Lin Jie rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.
Perhaps … he really found a confidant. The Ji father and daughter really loved books and respected knowledge.
"Boss Lin, please come with me. Let's go to the outer hall to participate in the last banquet. At the same time, let's announce to everyone that we have reached an agreement."
Ji Bonong stood up and spoke with a respectful expression.
Ji Zhixu smiled and gracefully bowed to Lin Jie.
It was already the last night of the banquet. If it was convenient, Lin Jie could go home tonight. Tonight was also the free banquet. All the guests were prepared to spend the last night in the main hall.
This was supposed to be a joyous and harmonious evening.
Unfortunately, there were many Extraordinaires among the guests. They had ulterior motives. They all carefully shifted their gazes to Lin Jie and the Ji father and daughter who were walking out of the VIP room.
Of course, everyone was waiting for Ji Bonong to speak, so they didn't seem out of place.
It was now the climax of the banquet. Ji Bonong straightened his back. The aura of the chairman of Luo Er Resources appeared spontaneously. He walked to the center of the banquet.
"Everyone, thank you very much for taking the time out of your busy schedules to attend my daughter's birthday banquet." Ji Bonong looked around. "Here, I would like to announce something."
Lin Jie smiled and watched from behind him.
However, he was ridiculing in his heart … No matter how he looked at it, this felt like a marriage proposal.
Ji Bonong took two steps back and walked to Lin Jie's side. He said respectfully, "The most honorable thing about this banquet is that I have reached an agreement with Boss Lin."
Lin Jie was stunned for a moment. He immediately revealed a calm smile. "It's just a few books. It's my honor to work with Luo Er Resources."
As soon as Lin Jie finished speaking, countless guests were stunned again.
For the average guest, the matter of "working with Luo Er Resources" took up most of their hearing.
What kind of company was Luo Er Resources? It was a terrifying company that had monopolized Nuo Jin for hundreds of years. Did it need to work with others? Even the Xingshu Chamber of Commerce did not have this qualification. What right did this nameless little bookstore have?
And for the Extraordinaires, it was because of those "few books."
Ji Bonong's uncontrollable expression clearly showed how excited he was in his heart.
And for someone who already stood at the peak of Nuo Jin in terms of wealth, what else was there to be excited about?
It was nothing more than … Ji Bonong's regret for not being able to become an Extraordinaire.
What kind of books were these?
To be able to make Ji Bonong defy a long-standing rule and give him the courage to defy this rule.
The owner of these books, the man who was smiling faintly behind Ji Bonong, who was he?
Ji Bonong turned around and waved at the housekeeper. He presented the five books —
"The books will be on consignment sale in three days. Those who are interested can come and try them out."
"Wow —" There was a faint commotion below. All the Extraordinaires with different expressions were stunned at this moment. Then, without prior agreement, they all shifted their gazes to the books. Their rapid breathing and greedy gazes were as clear as day.
Everyone felt the strange attraction of the books, but … they could not resist. They did not want to resist. They wanted everything in these books.
