Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lin Yuan realized that his group of acquaintances included Sun Ningxiang, who controlled Condense Fairy Orchard that supplied most of the plant type feys to the market, Long Tao, the young leader of Coiling Dragon’s Valley that had the most dragon-species feys and Creation Master Resources, Li Xuan, who came from Dark Clouds Bird Shrine that supplied most of the avian-type feys to the market, and Gao Feng, who came from Gao family, which was a major player in the deep sea resources industry and had a massive amount of aquatic-type fey resources.

Although Lin Yuan’s network was not enough to cover every type of fey in the market, these factions would be able to aid in the proliferation of the Warm Sun Fund’s efforts.

Lin Yuan planned on talking to Sun Ningxiang, Gao Feng, Long Tao, and Li Xuan when he had the chance.

As they walked, the middle-end talked non-stop.

Lin Yuan’s mind was full of thoughts about the Warm Sun Fund, but the middle-aged man kept asking him questions.

It was clear that the middle-aged man had recognized Lin Yuan as the young man who had defeated Meng Xu at the Allstar Match.

The middle-aged man praised Lin Yuan endlessly to the point that Lin Yuan became embarrassed.

When they turned a corner, the middle-aged man pointed straight ahead and said, “Keep walking straight, and you’ll find the spirit lifeform store. You can’t miss it. I have to go back to continue cleaning out the store. If my wife discovers the mess, she’ll start calling me lazy again.”

Lin Yuan nodded.

The middle-aged man was lazy, but he was a good person.

Lin Yuan walked ahead and saw Ah Yu walking toward him carrying a water basin.

Lin Yuan had also done such chores before when the tap in the bathroom was damaged.

It had been sweltering in Redbud City, and the least of one’s worries was catching a cold.

However, the Royal Capital was only beginning to turn warm now, and pouring water on oneself in the gusty environment would definitely result in one catching a cold.

Ah Yu sneezed as he wiped himself down with the water from the basin.

At this point, Ah Yu had also noticed Lin Yuan. His eyes lit up, and he ran over to Lin Yuan.

“Big brother, why are you here? Do you want to buy something from the store?”

Lin Yuan was about to nod when a feeble voice said from inside the store, “Little Yu, the basin is missing. Did you take it out? I told you that it’s still too cold. If you pour water on yourself out there, you’ll definitely catch a cold!”

The voice sounded extremely weak, but the tone of consideration was prominent.

Ah Yu hastily grinned and hid the basin behind him as he walked back into the house shouting, “Big brother, a customer is here. He’s the one who ordered plum blossom branches from me! I’m going to buy medicine for you now! Your health is the most important. If only I could buy enough medicine for you to consume every day. I don’t want to go to school! I want to stay in the store to help you.”

Ah Yu dashed out of the alley.

Lin Yuan strode into the store and saw a young man slightly younger than him dressed in a large black robe.

Only his pale and sallow face could be seen.

Although his body was wrapped up in the robe, it was clear that the young man was only skin and bones.

The young man looked at Lin Yuan with a wary yet thankful gaze.

Lin Yuan understood why the sickly young man was looking at him in such a way.

If someone had ordered so many Usneas from him back when he and Chu Ci were at Xia Region, Lin Yuan would also be on alert when the person came to the store.

Weak creatures needed to have such cautiousness to survive.

Lin Yuan also scanned the young man and felt that something seemed to be sucking away the young man’s vitality. Rather, something seemed to be stewing within the young man. This was the reason for the young man’s feebleness.

Otherwise, Lin Yuan could not sense any other problems with the young man.

Since the young man was weak due to a lack of vitality, all Lin Yuan had to do was replenish his vitality.

Lin Yuan waved his hand, and a beam of green light landed on the young man.

The young man was initially going to dodge the green light, but he was too slow.

When the green light landed on the young man, he suddenly felt himself being filled with strength. He had not felt this strong since before he contracted the strange illness.

The young man was delighted by this development, and all his wariness disappeared. Now, he was only looking at Lin Yuan with gratitude.

However, Lin Yuan furrowed his brow.

The amount of vitality that the Jasmine Lily’s Bud of Mountain Jade provided the young man should have been more than enough. It should have been sufficient even to bring him back from the brink of death.

Yet, the vitality was slowly being drained from the young man’s body.

The young man’s body was just like a bottomless pit that greedily gobbled all the pure vitality.

Lin Yuan used True Data and saw that dark energy swirling in the young man’s body. True Data also made Lin Yuan sure that the young man was nothing more than a human.

This was the first time that Lin Yuan had encountered such a massive amount of dark energy within a human’s body, and he could not help but be curious.

The young man had been able to survive because the dark energy had been in an unconscious state.

But now, Lin Yuan had triggered the dark energy awake, and he immediately stopped supplying vitality. Otherwise, all the vitality would be drained away by the pure dark energy.

Lin Yuan had supplied vitality for over five minutes, and he noticed that the dark energy disappeared the moment it grew to its maximum extent.

Soon, a dark glow radiated from the young man.

The dark glow rose from the young man’s chest and seemed to be forming a pattern. It moved up the young man’s neck until it turned into the image of a hooked tail on the young man’s left cheek.

The hooked tail looked just like a menacing scorpion tail.

Lin Yuan widened his eyes, and a guess formed in his head. He quickly walked up to the young man and said, “Can I see what’s on your neck?”

The young man seemed oblivious to the change that had just occurred. All he knew was that he no longer felt weak, and he wanted to test if he was still afraid of the light.

When the young man removed his black robe and hat to reveal his neck, Lin Yuan’s guess was confirmed.

The pattern that had appeared on the young man’s body was a beast pattern.
