Fey Evolution Merchant

Chapter 531: Two Choices

Liu Jie quickly thanked her.

“Thank you, Chief Guard.”

Upon hearing this, the brush in Night Leaning Moon’s hand stopped. She immediately placed it on the table and said, “Don’t thank me yet. This is your reward for everything you sacrificed in the evolving dimensional rift.

“However, I will still give you two choices...

“The first is to obtain the natal poison core from the Blade Queen Bee’s body and allow the Insect Queen to complete its mutation.

“Following which, if you can obtain one of the top ten seats of the Radiance Hundred Sequence and qualify to compete for a position in the Radiance Envoy, the Spirit Guards will give you a sacred source lifeform.”

Liu Jie was immediately shocked by the Chief Guard’s words.

This first choice actually had a reward in the form of a sacred source lifeform!

It was just that it would not be easy to obtain the sacred source lifeform.

The Radiance Hundred Sequence members all concealed their strength. Everyone was holding in their breaths.

By making it such that he had to get into the top ten of the Radiance Hundred Sequence in two years and qualify to compete for a position in the Radiance Envoy, the Spirit Guards would be making a huge investment in him.

However, Liu Jie would need to prove himself before he could attain this investment.

A sacred source lifeform was at stake!

Within each Class 5 dimensional rift that so many experts had to combine forces to resist, only a single sacred source lifeform could be produced.

This was something that Liu Jie did not even dare to think about.

However, his desire for a sacred source lifeform was no less intense than others’.

After all, Liu Jie had only been able to contract one source-type lifeform—the Insect Queen. He did not have as many choices as others.

Nevertheless, Liu Jie did not immediately agree after hearing about this generous first choice. Instead, he asked, “Chief Guard, what about the second choice?”

Night Leaning Moon proceeded to say cleanly, “The second choice is for you to become my disciple.”

While Liu Jie had been shocked deep down by the mention of a sacred source lifeform previously, he now felt his heart almost leap out of his chest upon hearing this.

This was simply too much excitement for one day!

Did one really need to choose if one were presented with the option of being the Chief Guard’s disciple?

Even someone who was not a fool would choose the second option without hesitation.

Although Liu Jie was no fool, he did not immediately make a choice.

Experts always strove to accept many disciples. Few could tolerate it if their own disciple had already sworn a rune oath to another with a Willpower Rune.

A rune oath made with a Willpower Rune represented a constraint that could never be resisted.

Liu Jie had already sworn to Lin Yuan with a Willpower Rune to become the latter’s retainer knight.

To Liu Jie, becoming the Chief Guard’s disciple could completely be considered an undeniably good thing.

Had it been in the past, he would have definitely fought tooth and nail for such an opportunity.

Yet, this was no longer his first priority.

He extended his hand to touch the Class 2 Creation Master retainer crest on his chest and could not help but feel a twinge of pain in his heart.

Perhaps it was because a small corner of the crest, which Lin Yuan had given him, had been blown up in the explosion within the evolving dimensional rift, but this crest filled Liu Jie with a new hope.

After Liu Jie had returned to the Radiance Hundred Sequence, because he had never hidden his identity as a Class 2 Creation Master retainer, he would always wear the crest on his chest every time he went out, regardless of what he was wearing.

In the Radiance Hundred Sequence, it had not caused a major disturbance that Liu Jie wore his Class 2 Creation Master retainer crest.

However, this had only been the case in the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

After becoming #30 in the Radiance Hundred Sequence, when the news of wearing of the crest spread outside, it had exploded on the Star Web’s forums.

Perhaps many people believed that becoming a Class 2 Creation Master retainer was not something to be proud of for someone like Liu Jie.

However, this Class 2 Creation Master retainer crest, which was not glorious in others’ eyes, was Liu Jie’s life!

Liu Jie was now already thinking of leaving the Spirit Guards’ land that night if the Chief Guard had nothing else to discuss with him.

He would first go to the Creation Master Association in the Royal Capital to fix his Class 2 Creation Master retainer crest.

If he did not have time, he would buy food first.

Then, when Lin Yuan returned to the mansion, he could cook a hearty meal for the both of them to eat.

Even though Night Leaning Moon was a top-notch Radiance Federation expert, who held one of 13 seats in the imperial court and was the Moon Empress’ equal, she had still felt somewhat nervous after presenting Liu Jie with the second choice of being her disciple.

The stronger one was, the more attention they paid to one’s fetters.

Night Leaning Moon had never accepted a disciple. She had only considered accepting one after seeing how it had changed the Moon Empress.

It was also time for her to find a successor.

However, after Night Leaning Moon had spoken about the second choice, she still did not receive a response after a long while.

Because of the shadow of her childhood, Night Leaning Moon detested waiting for others to make a decision.

What kind of human suffering was this!?

Night Leaning Moon made a few successive strokes with the brush in her hand while waiting for Liu Jie to make his decision.

Just then, Liu Jie raised his head firmly and said with great honesty, “Chief Guard, I... already made an oath with a Willpower Rune to become someone else’s retainer knight.

“Without him, I wouldn’t be who I am today. If you mind that I have become someone else’s retainer, I will choose the first option.”

Upon hearing this, Night Leaning Moon immediately placed the brush on the table.

She tapped her fingers lightly on the tabletop and only felt that the disciple she was about to accept seemed a little dense.

Since she had already decided to accept a disciple, would she not have already investigated clearly all that should have been investigated before?

As she thought about the relationship between Liu Jie and the Moon Empress’ disciple, Night Leaning Moon could not help but recall her and the Moon Empress’ youth.

Back then, she had almost become the Moon Empress’ retainer knight.

However, the Moon Empress had scoffed at her for not being capable of providing for herself and for singing out of tune.

Hence, she had not become the Moon Empress’ retainer knight.

That despicable, unsmiling Cold Moon and that horrid fey Mystic Moon had stolen the position first.

Time always turned tens of thousands of times. The distant years that had never seemed imminent now suddenly appeared before her eyes.

If she accepted Liu Jie as her disciple, everything would seem to form a cycle.

Night Leaning Moon was even more appreciative of Liu Jie’s honesty.

While her disciple was a little foolish, he was unexpectedly honest!

“I am Night Leaning Moon. From now on, I will be your Master.”
