Fey Evolution Merchant

Chapter 821: Beast Head Forest

Wang Fuxiang lowered her head again after Ah Jing left and gently caressed the purple bamboo.

A single teardrop fell from her eye and splashed onto the leaf of the purple bamboo.

It was as though the bamboo leaf could not bear for the teardrop to fall as it gently held the drop up and allowed it to slide down the stem where the tear was finally hidden in the roots.

“If only I could tear myself away from this bad luck,” murmured Wang Fuxiang.

A look of inexplicable bitterness appeared on Wang Fuxiang’s face.

…

At that moment, Lin Yuan and Liu Jie arrived at the Midnight Palace.

The Midnight Palace was different from the Radiant Moon Palace as the Midnight Palace was situated in the Royal Capital.

The Beast Head Forest surrounded the Midnight Palace, and all the beast heads were carved from stone.

The combination of the over 10,000 stone-carved beast heads with the night irises that covered the floor of the forest made the area surrounding the Midnight Palace look like a piece of night juxtapositioned against the daytime.

It was already after 6:00 p.m., and the sky was only beginning to darken, but as he walked into Beast Head Forest, Lin Yuan felt that he was walking through an illuminated path in the dead of night.

The stone-carved beast heads’ mouths had a glowing gem inside each of them.

The light from the glowing gems was different from sunlight, and the night irises could not absorb the light from the gems at all.

This was why the light from the gems could illuminate the path through the Beast Head Forest to the Midnight Palace.

As he walked along the path in Beast Head Forest, Lin Yuan realized that there were many people around him, their auras exuding elitism as they were dressed in spirit qi clothes.

There were normally no attendants in the Midnight Palace. Thus, the people with the lowest status that would appear at the Midnight Palace came from the veteran factions, while those of a higher status came from the top factions.

The people of the highest status were the true bigshots that could almost be called royalty.

“The grades of the stone-carved feys’ heads are becoming higher. These feys are already Diamond grade. If we walk forward more, we should be out of the Beast Head Forest,” said Liu Jie.

Liu Jie could not help but sneer. “Who designed Master’s Beast Head Forest? Why does it feel like we’re walking through a fey graveyard?”

Lin Yuan nodded instinctively.

But a moment later, he looked at Liu Jie in shock due to how Liu Jie looked when he was complaining and why Liu Jie was not complimenting his Master’s residence instead.

After they walked out of the Beast Head Forest, Lin Yuan was met with another stunning sight.

The entire Midnight Palace was built from stone and exuded a stern and rough beauty.

The pillars and beams had various spirit beasts carved on them.

Lin Yuan peered at the carvings on the pillars and beams and noticed that there were no dragon species feys.

Did Chief Guard Ye not like dragon-species feys, or was there some special reason?

Since the Guard Ye Banquet started at midnight, the Arts Stage, Martial Stage, and Martial Arts Stage took place beforehand.

Those who came to attend the Guard Ye Banquet could choose not to participate or watch the competition.

Liu Jie was the main character of the Guard Ye Banquet, so it was slightly late for him to arrive at the Guard Ye Banquet at 6:00 p.m.

But it was just the right time for the veteran factions and top factions.

At that moment, the leaders and disciples of the veteran and top factions who came to attend the Guard Ye Banquet simultaneously held their breaths.

They noticed an elderly man with average features dressed in a black robe standing at the entrance of the Midnight Palace.

However, this elderly man was not average in the eyes of the veteran factions and top factions.

This elderly man was Lordess Night Leaning Moon’s right-hand man, Lord Zuo Ming.

From Lord Zuo Ming’s straight posture and how his hands were behind his back, he seemed to be waiting for someone.

The younger generation of the veteran factions and top factions did not think much about it, but the leaders immediately started to ponder.

Who was so important that Lord Zuo Ming would stand out here waiting for them?

Those who were considered royalty should have arrived at the Midnight Palace a few days ago.

This meant that it was highly possible that Lord Zuo Ming was waiting for someone from the younger generation.

Meanwhile, Sun Ningxiang had just stepped out of the Beast Head Forest. Although she felt unbelievably melancholic, she kept her expression calm and unbothered.

When Condense Fairy Orchard had received the invitation for the Guard Ye Banquet, Sun Ningxiang had anticipated that she would run into Connected Beast Park.

Besides Connected Beast Park, who intended to subsume Condense Fairy Orchard, there were other top factions who could also be after Condense Fairy Orchard.

Sun Ningxiang hated the feeling of being hunted, but she could not avoid the situation because there was no one else in the Sun family who could attend the Guard Ye Banquet.

However, there was a hint of hopefulness laced into the melancholy.

After her grandmother had received the Legend Muscle Growth Camellia from Sky City, the decaying of her muscles had slowed.

This significantly reduced the amount of stress on her grandmother.

Her grandmother usually used spirit qi to counter the decaying of her muscles.

Now that she had the Legend Muscle Growth Camellia to counter the decaying of her muscles, the addition of the spirit qi led to new muscles starting to grow.

Her grandmother used to only have a year to live, but the new muscle growth would allow her to live for two more years without any problems as long as she did not do anything that would lead to a soul injury.

Sun Ningxiang started to make silent plans.

Given their plethora of Creation Master resources, there’s no way that Sky City will not have received an invitation to the Guard Ye Banquet.

Although Condense Fairy Orchard only had a trading relationship with Sky City, Sun Ningxiang was still incredibly grateful to Sky City and that strange mask-wearing young man.

Given Condense Fairy Orchard’s perilous situation, Sky City was the only faction that not only did not take advantage of Condense Fairy Orchard but was even willing to help them.

While Sun Ningxiang was deep in thought, she caught sight of two figures walking ahead of her.

The sight of these two figures made Sun Ningxiang’s eyes narrow.
