1782 The Moon Empress, Lin Yuan’s Teacher!
Xia Qing had always been arrogant. She had only ever played with Liu Yifan and the other current Radiance Envoys because her older brother was the first Radiance Envoy.
She had started training even earlier than Zong Ze, Gu Lang, and An He.
She had been born with a golden spoon in her mouth.
Although her parents had lost their lives for the sake of the Radiance Federation, her grandfather had brought her up, and he had doted on her since she was young.
She never saw Gu Lang, Zong Ze, An He, and the rest as her equals.
She did not look down on them, but power was irrefutable, and Xia Qing always lived by this creed.
Xia Qing had been willing to give up the position of Sequence #1 of the Radiance Hundred Sequence to Liu Jie because she was very impressed by him in a way that was unrelated to his power.
She was impressed by how he had been willing to sacrifice his future to protect Cold Frost City.
It was the same way she respected her parents despite never having met them.
Xia Qing’s parents had coincidentally encountered a Class 5 dimensional rift while they were out on assignment. It had appeared within Cloud Lake City’s city limits during the dimensional rift active period.
Once the Class 5 dimensional rift spread, the earth would collapse, and at least half of Cloud Lake City would be plunged into a crisis, leading to an extremely high death count.
Once a dimensional rift opened, a spatial block would be set up, and phones would stop working. As such, those near the site could only wait to be rescued or leave the affected territory to seek out help.
Xia Qing’s parents had been very powerful, and the two of them managed to keep the Class 5 dimensional rift under control for almost six hours.
They did not hope that they would be able to make it out of the Class 5 dimensional rift alive. Their goal was to prevent the dimensional lifeforms that charged out from the dimensional rift from entering Cloud Lake City.
By the time the Spirit Guards rushed to Cloud Lake City, Xia Qing’s mother was long dead.
Xia Qing’s father had also sacrificed his vitality to use his body as a shield. His injuries had been too serious, and he eventually succumbed to them.
Xia Qing related to Liu Jie because he had a similar experience with his parents. As such, she had been willing to give up her position.
If she did not feel this way, even if Liu Jie declared that he did not intend on fighting for a spot to become a Radiance Envoy, she would still have fought him for it. This would also be in spite of her having to reveal some of her power.
But just because she respected him, it did not mean that she also acknowledged his power.
Although Liu Jie’s use of insect-species carcinoma feys in his fight against Long Tao had astonished Xia Qing, she was still confident that she would be able to find a way to counter them.
Xia Qing’s fey with the Barren bloodline had evolved to the Desolate bloodline last year.
If not for the rule that she was unable to enter the Barren Mystic Realm because she was not a Radiance Envoy, her fey with the Barren bloodline would be even stronger.
Xia Qing had been very nervous from the moment the battle began.
Although she had not interacted much with Zong Ze, Liu Jie, Black, and the rest, she was still afraid that they would be injured. At the same time, she was afraid that the Radiance Federation’s pride would be blighted.
If not for the rules that stated that the Freedom Federation could pick the contestants, Xia Qing would have wanted to join the fray.
But when Lin Yuan summoned Chimey during his battle against Han Qi, Xia Qing realized that Lin Yuan was extraordinary.
But even then, Xia Qing did not think much of him. After all, Zong Ze, Gu Lang, and the rest were also B-rank spirit qi professionals who wielded Diamond X/Fantasy V feys that could produce attacks with Myth Breed power. For geniuses, rolling grades were common.
It was when Lin Yuan used Silver Turtle’s Reflection Attack to reflect the Creation Breed fey’s attack that Xia Qing acknowledged Lin Yuan’s power.
Despite being a B-rank spirit qi professional, Lin Yuan had been able to produce power that was an entire grade above his level.
Only such power could sit at the same table as Xia Qing.
It could be said that this was the first time that Xia Qing had found someone among her peers who she could communicate with. As a result of this acknowledgment, she felt increasingly closer to Lin Yuan.
When Na Na saw how livid Lu Ou was because Lin Yuan winked at him, she said, “Little Ou, you still have a long way to go. Remember this day. After just another two years, you’ll be able to scrub away the humiliation of today!”
After Na Na said this, the Moon Empress’ gaze changed.
From the way Na Na said such a thing given the circumstances, it showed that she had absolute confidence in her power.
At the same time that Lu Ou nodded in response to what Na Na said, the Goddess of Mercy said, “I have other matters to attend to and shall take my leave first.”
Li Yang and Na Na’s expressions changed again.
They were currently in the Radiance Federation, and the three of them represented the same interests.
The Goddess of Mercy was the strongest among the three members of the Freedom Federation’s royalty present.
Once the Goddess of Mercy left, the might of the Freedom Federation would be greatly diminished.
Thus, the two of them had no choice but to leave with her.
Na Na took out a Seed of Satan and three uncontracted sacred source lifeforms and tossed them to the Moon Empress along with the green gem.
The Mountain River Grain God Bells glinted beautifully, and the barrier in the air disappeared.
The Goddess of Mercy, Na Na, and Li Yang took the members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence who had not competed in the battle and Lu Ou, and they left the Radiance Federation together.
This year’s Radiance Hundred Sequence selection had finally come to a close.
The Moon Empress turned and handed over the resources Na Na gave her to him as she said, “Na Na saved Lu Ou from you. As such, you should be the one to take possession of these resources. As for the remainder of the stakes, I, your Master, will deliver them to you tomorrow.”
This was the first time that the Moon Empress had addressed herself as Lin Yuan’s Master publicly. Her words had been a declaration of Lin Yuan’s identity.
The broadcast on Star Web had not ended, so the entire audience heard what the Moon Empress said to Lin Yuan.
Ever since the mask fell from Lin Yuan’s face, rumors that Black was the Moon Empress’ disciple started swirling around Star Web.
However, that was all it had been then, unconfirmed rumors. After all, the Moon Empress had never publicly made known that Lin Yuan was her disciple yet, nor had he addressed the Moon Empress as his Master.
There were many people who found this speculation to be ludicrous as it seemed blasphemous to spread rumors about the Moon Empress!
But it turned out that the rumor was true.
The Moon Empress had personally confirmed the relationship between her and Lin Yuan.
This caused Star Web to immediately erupt into a frenzy.
