Chapter 1178: Can I See Your Fey?
Fu Di was afraid that Lin Yuan would be able to sniff out the faint stench from the Decay Blood Hooked Scorpion’s tail, so he added two more scoops of jam.
He quickly trod over to Lin Yuan and smiled as he said politely, “Friend, when we arrive at the destination and begin trading with the merchants from the Great Lush Federation, it might end up taking a long time. We prepared many resources, so it’s likely that we won’t be done before sunset. Why don’t you have some bread so you won’t become hungry at night? I added some specialty jam from Phoebe Zhennan City. I promise that it’s delicious.”
Lin Yuan shot Fu Di a look of bemusement.
Fu Di was astonished by Lin Yuan’s gaze and instinctively feared that Lin Yuan had realized what he had done to the bread.
Before Fu Di could ponder over the possibility, his expression darkened when he heard what Lin Yuan said next.
“Luo Ya, he said that he put a lot of jam in between the bread. Do you want to eat it?”
Fu Di immediately retracted his hand.
The Luo family knew that Luo Ya was hanging out with the Withered Cliff Thief Death Corps.
If they found out that she had died from eating the bread he had given her, they would definitely hunt him down and dismember him.
Given the Luo family’s power and connections, there would be nowhere for him to hide.
If the Luo family put a bounty on his head offering Creation Master resources, there was even a chance that the other members of the Withered Cliff Thief Death Corps would sell him out.
In contrast to the terrified Fu Di, Luo Ya assumed that Lin Yuan was showing care for her by offering her the bread.
She was overjoyed and felt as though flowers were blooming within her.
However, she had already eaten a piece of bread and did not want Lin Yuan to think of her as a glutton.
Hence, in order to maintain her demure image, she replied shyly, “I have a really small appetite. I can’t possibly fit this into my stomach.”
Fu Di relaxed when he heard Luo Ya’s rejection.
Lin Yuan had no intention of teasing Fu Di, so he received the bread from Fu Di and gobbled it in front of Fu Di’s watchful eyes.
He was in no mood to entertain Fu Di as all his attention was on the Item-Containing Walnut that Fu Di had taken out.
The Item-Storing Walnut was a spatial spiritual ingredient. Although it did not have a large storage space, he could use them to travel between the Divine Wood Federation and the Radiance Federation if he had enough of them.
Lin Yuan had just witnessed the Item-Storing Walnut’s ability for himself, and it was considered a clumsy storage instrument.
Since the Withered Cliff Thief Death Corps were using such a clumsy item, it meant that the Item-Storing Walnut was common in the Divine Wood Federation.
Moreover, Lin Yuan had clearly spotted a poisonous substance sandwiched between the bread.
He did not know if it was his imagination, but he felt that eating poison with the Vicious Poison Law in effect made the food more delicious.
Lin Yuan also ate the bread to test this theory, and it turned out that he was right.
There was a fragrance that was strongly present amongst the sweetness of the jam and the fragrance of the bread.
Lin Yuan felt as though he was eating a fried chicken flavored scorpion.
As Lin Yuan munched on the bread, he said to Luo Ya with mock nonchalance, “Is the Item-Containing Walnut sold in Phoebe Zhennan City?”
Luo Ya’s eyes lit up as Lin Yuan asking her this question meant that there was a possibility he would go to Phoebe Zhennan City.
However, she was confused as even Class 1 families in small towns could obtain the Item-Storing Walnut.
This confusion made Luo Ya question whether Lin Yuan did not know much about the Divine Wood Federation.
If so, it would be all the more possible that he was the disciple of one of the secret elite families in the Great Lush Federation.
Most youths in the Divine Wood Federation would follow a group of merchants to do business in the Divine Wood Federation and Iron Hammer Federation from the age of 12 or 13.
In such an environment, even idiots would come to know of the Item-Storing Walnut.
Only the disciples of the secret elite families in the Great Lush Federation who had been brought up in an enclosed environment would lack such basic and common information.
The more Luo Ya thought about it, the more certain she was that she knew the truth.
She decided to test Lin Yuan.
First, she answered his question, “Silver Item-Containing Walnuts can be found at auctions in Phoebe Zhennan City. Occasionally, there will be Gold ones too. You can obtain Bronze ones from any Class 1 Creation Master. It just so happens that I’m a Class 1 Creation Master. I don’t have any Item-Containing Walnuts with me now, but around eight Item-Containing Walnut trees are growing back at my home. If you want the Item-Containing Walnuts, I can nurture many for you once I’m back home. If you come and visit Phoebe Zhennan City, I’ll give you ten!”
Suddenly, she asked Lin Yuan, “By the way, you said that you were separated from your retainers because of a Class 1 alien insect dimensional rift. Were your feys injured during the attack? If so, I can help you heal your feys now.”
Lin Yuan shook his head and replied, “I didn’t summon any feys. My feys don’t have combat abilities, so they’re useless in such a situation.”
Now, Lin Yuan was no longer thinking of the Item-Storing Walnut. Instead, he was thinking of the Item-Storing Walnut trees.
He had never seen any Item-Storing Walnut trees and did not know what conditions needed to be met in order for the Item-Storing Walnut trees to produce Item-Storing Walnuts.
Previously, Lin Yuan would need to think of a way to address this situation carefully.
But he now had Feng Shuang, Elder He, and Hu Tian, as well as Genius, who all had Class 4 Creation Master abilities.
With all these Class 4 Creation Masters, Lin Yuan would be able to produce a large number of Item-Storing Walnuts quickly.
Moreover, if the Item-Storing Walnut tree could produce ramets easily, he could even nurture a small forest of them.
Luo Ya’s eyes widened, and she asked gently, “If your feys aren’t skilled at battle, this must mean they’re support-type or healing-type feys. Can I see your feys?”
