Success in Deception

Although this little Qilin loved to impersonate a senior expert, there was no doubt that his strength was indeed formidable. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to kill a Heavenly Immortal level fierce beast with a single blow so easily. However, since his strength was so great, it would be a waste not to have him help with something.

Lin Yan secretly made some calculations in his heart and cupped his hands towards the Seven-Colored Qilin, saying, "Senior speaks the truth. Fierce beasts naturally love destruction. This magnificent Primordial Heaven and Earth has become so dilapidated because of them. But fierce beasts are numerous and powerful. We weak beings can only struggle to survive, living day by day with uncertainty."

Lin Yan looked up at the little Qilin and found no sign of impatience on his face. He continued, "Fortunately, in this world, there are Innate Divine Beast races with deep origins like the Qilin Clan, and seniors like you with boundless magic power, vast divine abilities, supreme strength, who fear no power and act righteously. Only then do we weak races have a glimmer of hope."

The Seven-Colored Qilin Mo Xuan's pair of watery eyes slowly narrowed.

"However, since we beings have inherited the legacy of Great God Pangu and were born in this Primordial Heaven and Earth, even if our strength is weak, we should do something for this world to live up to Great God Pangu's will."

The Seven-Colored Qilin nodded in approval.

Lin Yan pointed to the Black Sha Valley, "This place, for example, is filled with dense malevolent energy, and the fierce beasts are brutal. All living beings can only struggle to survive. If Senior could annihilate the fierce beasts here, wouldn't all living beings be able to live freely? Wouldn't everyone be even more grateful to Senior? And if this place were restored to clarity and all things revived, it would be a significant merit for Senior." Lin Yan continued to persuade him.

"That's right! Eradicating fierce beasts and upholding justice is our duty. Who are you, Lin Yan? I'll go with you to annihilate the fierce beasts and restore a clear and bright world for all beings." The Seven-Colored Qilin was suddenly filled with righteous indignation, feeling the heavy responsibility on his shoulders, adopting an attitude of "Only I can protect this great Primordial Heaven and Earth."

Seeing the simple-minded Seven-Colored Qilin in front of him looking eager and full of fighting spirit, Lin Yan was secretly delighted.

The super henchman had been successfully tricked!

Next, under Lin Yan's guidance, the Seven-Colored Qilin began to annihilate fierce beasts in the surrounding area. With the Seven-Colored Qilin Mo Xuan, the super henchman, the task of clearing out fierce beasts became much simpler. The Seven-Colored Qilin, with his formidable strength capable of instantly killing Heavenly Immortal level fierce beasts, found dealing with ordinary fierce beasts to be child's play. Often, in just one encounter, without Lin Yan even needing to act, the fierce beasts were reduced to meat paste.

Lin Yan followed behind him, occasionally adding a finishing blow with the Earth Spirit Seal or Wutu Divine Light, but mostly acting as an observer, providing emotional support.

The Seven-Colored Qilin was still young and his nature was immature. He had almost no immunity to Lin Yan's mindless flattery. Every time Lin Yan crossed his own bottom line and uttered praises that even he found disgusting, the Seven-Colored Qilin would become as energetic as if he had been injected with chicken blood, disregarding fatigue, and charge into the next battlefield with a roar.

However, as the battles increased, Lin Yan became more and more shocked.

The cultivation of this little Seven-Colored Qilin was only at the Early Heavenly Immortal stage, but the Divine Ability Spells he used seemed to be innate abilities. He used them without any hindrance, almost effortlessly, and their power was immense.

Even with an Earth Element spell, the power Lin Yan could unleash was nearly ten times weaker compared to the Seven-Colored Qilin.

Was this the terrifying power of a top-tier Innate Divine Beast bloodline? Having a good origin truly allowed one to do whatever they pleased.

No wonder a little Qilin at the Heavenly Immortal Realm dared to roam the Primordial Heaven and Earth alone. No wonder the Qilin Clan would later dominate the Primordial Heaven and Earth alongside the Dragon and Phoenix Two Clans.

These top divine beasts were truly favored children of heaven and earth, and they had the capital for it, Lin Yan thought enviously.

However, since he couldn't participate in the battles, Lin Yan activated the Primal Chaos Plate and focused on absorbing the malevolent energy.

After the Primal Chaos Plate absorbed all the malevolent energy, Lin Yan began to mobilize the laws of the earth, guiding the earth veins, and changing the terrain. Sometimes he would also persuade the Primal Chaos Plate to release some of the transformed Pure Spiritual Qi to increase the concentration of spiritual energy in the area.

The cooperation between the man and the Qilin became increasingly tacit. One focused on killing and purifying, while the other focused on repair and construction. Their division of labor was clear, and their efficiency was extremely high. In just a hundred years, they had cleared more than half of the fierce beasts in the Outer Area of the Canyon.

The entire process had become Mo Xuan's "martial prowess performance show" and Lin Yan's "ecological restoration demonstration class."

However, the results were also significant. Patches of barren land, once contaminated by malevolent energy, had regained their vitality. Various spiritual roots and herbs continuously emerged from the soil, and spirit beasts finally had a peaceful land to rest and recuperate, no longer needing to be constantly vigilant against attacks from fierce beasts.

Lin Yan and Mo Xuan fought side by side for over a hundred years, and their relationship rapidly deepened. With Lin Yan's deliberate efforts to cater to him, the little Qilin Mo Xuan was always pleased, and subsequently, wholeheartedly served as his free henchman.

Although this Little Qilin was a bit tsundere, loved to show off, and enjoyed flattery, Lin Yan also discovered that Mo Xuan was actually a divine beast with a pure heart, simple mind, and was very easy to get along with. Thus, gradually, he came to regard him as a trustworthy companion.

Mo Xuan was actually very curious about Lin Yan's abilities. From the initial "Let's see what you can do," to "Huh? You can do this too?", and finally, every time he finished cleaning a place, he would actively approach Lin Yan, curiously watching his methods, and occasionally asking a few questions.

"Hey, Lin Yan, what is this sparkly powder you're mixing into this soil?"

"Xiao Mo, this is 'Star Sand.' It slowly releases Star Power to gently improve the soil quality."

"Then why are you sticking this piece of wood here? To burn as firewood?"

"This is a 'Pulse-Stabilizing Stake.' Refined from spirit wood, it can stabilize the earth's energy here and prevent the earth veins from becoming chaotic again."

"Oh... You really know a lot."

Lin Yan discovered that this Kirin Young Master was full of curiosity for the unknown, and was not ashamed to ask questions (although he always sounded a bit tsundere when he asked). So, he catered to his preference, often combining examples in his explanations, making them easy to understand and engaging for Mo Xuan.

Unknowingly, Mo Xuan's address for Lin Yan changed from the initial "Hey" and "You" to "Lin Yan," and his tone became much more casual and intimate. As for Lin Yan's address for Mo Xuan, it changed directly from Senior to "Xiao Mo."

Of course, the change in address was proposed by the Little Qilin himself, and Lin Yan couldn't refuse even if he wanted to.

Although being called Senior felt good at first, over time, it created a sense of distance. So, he took the initiative to ask Lin Yan to change his address to Xiao Mo, which was his nickname within the clan, and not something that could be called by just anyone.
