Fey Evolution Merchant (Web Novel)

Chapter 545: Guessing Identity

After he saw that the news was posted on the Purchase With No Loss store fan club, Lin Yuan’s eyes immediately narrowed.

The usually active fan club instantly erupted into chaos after seeing the news.

Island Blossom: “Bro, you even managed to eat this? Impressive!”

Lake Spirit: “Bro, is this real? Did you mistype?”

The original poster, Recluse Study, had anticipated that people would find his post hard to believe.

Instead of offering an explanation, Recluse Study posted: “I’m not impressive. I’m also not boasting. However, my uncle is a very powerful nomad spirit qi professional. He saw it with his very own eyes. There’s no way it’s wrong!”

Despite his assurance, many people still expressed their disbelief, and they started to conduct their own investigation.

In the beginning, the Purchase With No Loss store fan club only consisted of a small group of Lin Yuan’s online friends. Most of them came from the group that liked to snatch up Usnea and Spirit-Siphon Goldfish.

The number of people in the group did not increase up until Lin Yuan removed the Usnea and Spirit-Siphon Goldfish.

Since they had joined the group the earliest, they stood by it through thick and thin. They visited the Purchase With No Loss store almost every day to wait on Lin Yuan’s newest Usnea and Spirit-Siphon Goldfish.

As such, they were the ones who usually snapped up all the new stock.

Thus, it became more difficult for newcomers to join the group based on their interest in Usneas and Spirit-Siphon Goldfish.

Ever since Lin Yuan started using the Flower Brocade Pearls to conduct blind trading, more and more people who had a wealth of resources started joining the group.

Recluse Study had entered the group by using a large amount of mid-grade strange flames to blind trade for Flower Brocade Pearls.

People of a similar milieu to Recluse Study dared to say that one of their family members saw it with their own eyes.

This meant that there was a good chance that he was telling the truth.

Nine days ago, the bright moon had hung high in the sky, and the moonlight had been stained with blood. The radiant moon had totally eclipsed the proud sun that should have been taking center stage.

Such an earth-shattering event might boggle the minds of both people.

However, anyone with a little knowledge would link it to the ever-quiet moon.

That was why Recluse Study’s post attracted the attention of almost every person in the group almost immediately.

A member of the group called Sleep Addiction asked Recluse Study a question that many other people had also been asking.

Sleep Addiction: “Bro, you said that the daytime moon had something to do with a young person. Who is this young person?”

Recluse Study instantly replied. “My uncle said that it had something to do with a pair of Master and disciple.”

Recluse Study had just posted the message when Sleep Addiction followed up with a response.

Sleep Addiction: “I envy this young person!”

Lin Yuan’s eyes narrowed when he saw that the most recent message received a constant stream of likes.

80 more posts were swiftly uploaded.

Lin Yuan originally took a look at the people from Indigo Azure City that he had not had access to during his coma.

Yet somehow, the conversation had turned the spotlight onto himself.

Lin Yuan was completely oblivious to all that had taken place ever since he had been sucked into the dimensional rift.

Now, as Sleep Addict continuously posted news related to Lin Yuan, he could only watch on in a daze.

Although he was the person in question, Lin Yuan could not confirm the validity of what Recluse Study was saying.

However, it was rather juicy news.

Lin Yuan could tell from Recluse Study’s posts that the Moon Empress had been beside herself with anxiousness during the time that he had been sucked into the dimensional rift.

He could not experience this as the person in question, but he was exceptionally touched when he heard it from others.

During his chat with Recluse Study, Lin Yuan found out a piece of news.

Recluse Study: “My uncle said that this incident has something to do with the Zheng family of Indigo Azure City. You can’t tell anyone about this because I only came to know about it after eavesdropping on my uncle and mother’s conversation.”

Once he posted the message, Recluse Study’s concerns did not occur.

This was because Recluse Study was immediately deemed a liar by some of the group’s bigshots, and they branded him with disdain.

In the eyes of the bigshots, it was as though Recluse Study was saying that the Zheng family was in contact with the youth that was the Moon Empress’s disciple.

The Zheng family had no right to be standing on high horses just because they had the power to summon an eclipse.

Lin Yuan was stunned by Recluse Study’s most recent post. He could not help but be curious who this uncle Recluse Study spoke of was.

Recluse Study happened to know quite a lot. Not to mention he had also mentioned the Zheng family.

Lin Yuan could be sure that what Recluse Study said was true since his clash with the Zheng family was imminent and being sucked into the dimensional rift was in his past.

Two days had passed without anything happening.

He had definitely made his identity known to the two Guard Envoys who had the Moon Empress’ crest on them.

Those two Guard Envoys had also promised to keep this matter from getting out.

Since the two Guard Envoys had journeyed alongside the Captain of the Guard Envoys, they were sure to give him a head’s up.

There were only three people present who could be Recluse Study’s uncle.

One of them was Jiao Hanzhong.

Another one was Duan He, who had accompanied Jiao Hanzhong to aid him and helped his contracted fey Cold Snow Pine to break through Myth II and gain the ability to transform into a human.

There was also Nightmare VI, which had suddenly appeared to help Jiao Hanzhong.

Jiao Hanzhong and Nightmare VI were already dead, and dead men told no tales.

Hence, the only person left who understood the whole situation was Duan He.

It was impossible that the Zheng family had released the news on their own.

Lin Yuan was not in denial that the matter could be leaked out, but the reactions of the people in the group told him that they had no clue the event had taken place.

When he had called Liu Jie in the morning, Wen Yu also mentioned the Zheng family’s present situation.

Evidently, the Moon Empress had not done much to the Zheng family.

Lin Yuan felt that sometimes, a little push was needed for the truth to reveal itself.

However, he could not be sure whether or not his guess was 100% accurate.

In order to prove his hypothesis, he needed to put it to the test.
