Zhang Tong sneered at Huang Yu. “Think of that young man and Luo Ya’s status. Do you think someone like him would go for her? The aristocrats of the Great Lush Federation are always monogamous. Don’t you know that? The young man will be leaving tomorrow, and there’s no way he will be taking Luo Ya with him. Once he leaves, I won’t stop you if you want to pursue Luo Ya. But if you’re going to force her, you might cause disaster for the Huang family. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. You better think this through carefully!”

Zhang Tong noticed that Luo Ya had been fully fixated on the young man, but he had not done the same.

If the two of them had a secret relationship, she would not have kept her mistreatment to herself.

Luckily, there was nothing between the two of them. Otherwise, no one would have been able to survive the attack from the army of insects.

Zhang Tong ignored the stunned Huang Yu and took a deep breath. He pulled out his phone to call his father to explain the situation before Jian Li arrived at the Zhang family’s residence.

He also wanted his father to come to a decision.

Lin Yuan, Liu Jie, and Ji Feng didn’t stay with the Luo family despite having been invited by Luo De and Luo Ya. Instead, they rented a treehouse nearby the Luo family’s residence so they could experience the Divine Wood Federation’s unique architecture.

Lin Yuan’s rejection had disappointed Luo Ya. However, she had gained enough experience and knowledge to know that there was no future where she and Lin Yuan could be together.

Luo Ya forced herself to bury this affection deep within her and decided to deepen their relationship in another way.

“Lin Yuan, have a rest in this treehouse before you come to my house to have a simple meal. I’ll pass you the Item-Storing Walnut Trees then,” said Luo Ya.

When Luo De heard that Luo Ya was going to give the Item-Storing Walnut Trees to Lin Yuan, he slapped his leg and said, “Our family has the most Item-Storing Walnut Trees out of all the four Class 2 families in the city. Besides the sprouts I replanted and am unsure of whether they will survive, we have a total of 26 Item-Storing Walnut Trees. If they please you, I can give them all to you.”

Luo De knew that someone like Lin Yuan would not take the Luo family’s Item-Storing Walnut Trees without giving anything in return. He also saw no hope of anything happening between his daughter and Lin Yuan. However, he could use their link to become acquainted with the powerful mountain that was Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan had come to the Divine Wood Federation to obtain the Item-Storing Walnut Trees so that he could travel freely between the Radiance Federation and Divine Wood Federation.

If he had to use spatial crystals for his trip back to the Radiance Federation, he would run out of them.

Thus, he accepted Luo Ya’s invitation to go to the Luo family. He wanted to see if the Item-Storing Walnut trees were easy to nurture and how long it would take for them to produce one Item-Storing Walnut.

After settling into the treehouse, Lin Yuan and Liu Jie headed for the Luo family.

Ji Feng stayed in the treehouse and released the Karma Sword Lily and Prior Decree Sleeping Lotus. The two feys changed into human form. One of them remained in Phoebe Zhennan City to keep watch over the situation while the other headed to Oak City as a scout.

Ji Feng was taking over Liu Jie’s role as the scout because his feys would be able to form a complete geographical map of Phoebe Zhennan City and Oak City and because Lin Yuan was afraid that with Su Yiren’s soul injury, an accident would happen if she stayed in Oak City by herself for too long.

Su Yiren was important to Lin Yuan because she would be useful to his development in the Divine Wood Federation.

Her status as a Dark Envoy was also a type of resource. If Lin Yuan wanted to break into the Dark Continent, everything would run smoothly as long as Su Yiren was around.

The Prior Decree Sleeping Lotus could heal soul injuries, so it was suitable for it to be the one to head to Oak City.

Ever since Lin Yuan saved Ji Feng, he had been tiptoeing everywhere in the Radiance Federation.

In the time that he had been in the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce, he had not left the place for fear of being spotted by someone from Ten Thousand Flags Trading. This excluded the times that Lin Yuan ordered him to return to the mansion.

Now that he could allow the Karma Sword Lily and Prior Decree Sleeping Lotus to move around freely, Ji Feng reclaimed a sense of freedom that he had not felt for a long time.

After Lin Yuan and Liu Jie arrived at the Luo family, Luo Ya hurriedly went to pick fresh fruits.

Meanwhile, Luo De ordered a servant to prepare a meal of the highest quality. He invited Lin Yuan to sit at the head of the table while Liu Jie was seated right next to Lin Yuan.

Luo De took another seat. The way they were seated made it seem as though Lin Yuan was actually the head of the household.

Luo De racked his brain to come up with a topic he could chat with Lin Yuan about. He was afraid of saying something wrong that would offend Lin Yuan and cause trouble for the Luo family.

The Luo family did not have what it took to offend a person that even Zhang Tong and Jian Li were trying to butter up.

Luo De was so anxious that he instinctively took two Item-Storing Walnuts out of his sleeve and started to toy with them in his hand.

Lin Yuan did not immediately recognize that the items in Luo De’s hand were the Item-Storing Walnuts. He had to sense the spatial energy within them and use True Data before he discovered that they were Silver/Epic Item-Storing Walnuts.

Luo De noticed that Lin Yuan was interested in the Item-Storing Walnuts. He smiled and plastered on a look of reluctance. After hesitating for a moment, he bit his lip and presented the two Item-Storing Walnuts to Lin Yuan as he said, “Lord, these are Item-Storing Walnuts that I have kept by my side to use as toys for about seven years. They are Silver/Epic. They are large and have smooth lines that make them look great as a set. If you like them, I can gift them to you.”

Lin Yuan nodded as he learned that Luo De had the habit of toying with the Item-Storing Walnuts.

He had seen regular Silver Item-Storing Walnuts. They were mud-yellow in color and did not look very appealing. It was likely that the ones that Luo De kept with him resembled rubies because he had been playing with them for seven years.

In his previous life, Lin Yuan had seen many wealthy old men keep walnuts with them at all times to play with. However, he had never found anyone with such habits in the Radiance Federation.
