Chapter 121 (continued)
This is great news!
It's good to take shelter under a big tree; by following a Peak Eighth Grade alchemy Master, they won't have to worry about being bullied!
However, the Star Wielders Pill Department shook his head and said, "No."
The look in Blue Crystal King's eyes darkened.
The Star Wielders continued, "It seems it was transferred to one of the Grandmaster's auxiliary disciples."
Blue Crystal King felt a chill run down his spine and asked, "A disciple who assists Eighth Grade alchemy Master must also be at a very high level?"
"I heard he's only at the Fourth Grade Realm..." The Star Wielders from the Pill Department said, feeling a little sorry for the Blue Crystal Realm Domain.
He knows very little about the situation, after all, he has been in charge of external affairs for many years.
Cross-border communication is extremely expensive, and ordinary Star Wielders are unwilling to waste this merit.
The Blue Crystal King looked even more uneasy. He gave a dry laugh and asked nervously, "Your Excellency, our production of Blue Crystal Stone has been very stable these past few years... Surely the Heavenly Palace wouldn't abandon us?"
The Pill Division actually transferred them to a Fourth Grade Realm Star Wielders.
This is very disturbing.
A figure involuntarily appeared in Blue Crystal King's mind... Not long ago, that Nature Department Heavenly Fortune Bearer, although only at the Third Grade Realm, easily killed a Fourth Grade Realm Bone Clan.
But such a brilliant and talented person is one in a million.
Even the Huaxia Heavenly Palace could not possibly have a second one.
Seeing that the Blue Crystal King wanted to ask something more, the Star Wielders of the Pill Department decided to stop talking and said, "That's all I know. I still need to hand over my work. Your Majesty, if there's nothing else, please leave!"
Blue Crystal King dared not ask any more questions and could only return to the Blue Crystal King.
For the past two days and two nights, the Blue Crystal Realm Domain have been in a state of panic.
Lan Yu couldn't wait for Li Yang anymore; his mind was filled with thoughts of the Blue Crystal Clan's future fate.
The Blue Crystal King was shrouded in gloom, and no one knew what to do next.
Lan Yu suspected that the matter of the Blue Crystal Soil had been exposed, which was why the people from the Pill Division had withdrawn from the Blue Crystal Realm Domain.
Because the Blue Crystal Realm Domain no longer holds that much value, and even harbors significant hidden dangers...
As for the Fourth Grade Realm Star Wielders is about to take over...
Lan Yu knew what was going on; she figured he was probably being pushed out to take the blame.
Even in this situation, Lan Yu dared not reveal the matter of the Blue Crystal Soil.
What's the point of saying it?
It will only make everyone more anxious and uneasy!
Lan Yu had no way to contact Li Yang, so he could only wait silently, hoping that Li Yang would send him a letter and tell him that... the Blue Crystal Realm Domain had not been abandoned by the Huaxia Heavenly Palace.
After all the people from the Pill Department had left, a new face arrived... Blue Crystal King personally went to receive him, wanting to see what was going on.
"May I ask, Venerable One, who is currently protecting the Blue Crystal Realm Domain...?"
The person who arrived was none other than Li Yaowan's trusted confidant, whom he had assigned to Li Yang.
His name is Zhen You, a Sixth Grade alchemist. He is not Li Yaowan's direct disciple, but he is the child of Li Yaowan's direct disciple.
This relationship is far more secure than Li Yaowan taking on another personal disciple.
Zhen You said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, the right to protect the Blue Crystal Realm Domain has now been transferred to the Heavenly Fortune Bearer of the Nature Department!"
Upon hearing this, Blue Crystal King was taken aback.
Lan Yu, standing behind him, suddenly stood on end with her hair standing on end.
Lan Yu's voice trembled as she asked, "Is it that Venerable Li Yang?"
Zhen You said, "That's right, it's her!"
Zhen You noticed Lan Yu's unusual behavior and asked, "Your Highness Lan Yu, do you know Master Li?"
Lan Yu tried very hard to calm herself down, but she just couldn't.
It felt like a large rock was stuck in his throat; he wanted to say something but couldn't.
At this moment, a clear female voice rang out. "I have been to the Blue Crystal Realm Domain before and got along very well with His Highness Lan Yu Jade. We have been corresponding since then."
Li Yang has arrived in the Blue Crystal Realm Domain.
She teleported using a protective contract, appearing directly in the palace.
Although Zhen You's cultivation level was higher than Li Yang's, he still politely bowed to Li Yang and said, "Greetings, Senior Sister Li."
Li Yang politely returned the greeting.
According to seniority, Li Yang and Zhen You's father were of the same generation, so it was reasonable for Zhen You to call her "Shigu" (a term of respect for one's aunt).
The other members of the Nature Department also followed them to the Blue Crystal Realm Domain.
Blue Crystal King and the others were still in a daze, unable to come to their senses for a while.
Li Yang bowed to Blue Crystal King and said, "Your Majesty, we meet again."
Now, even Blue Crystal King's hair stood on end!
It took Lan Yu a long time to find her voice. "Venerable One..." Just those two words were already choked with sobs. The panic, unease, and anxiety of the past few days erupted at this moment, and crystal tears slid down her delicate face.
Zhong Kun: "!"
Lin Zhaoqin: "!"
They were seeing the Blue Crystal Clan for the first time and were genuinely stunned by their appearance.
Blue Crystal King represents elegant and mature beauty, while Lan Yu represents youthful clarity.
The Blue Crystal Clan does not have a conventional gender, which makes their beauty all the more unique.
It is neither overly masculine nor overly feminine.
Beneath its cold, hard crystal exterior lies a magnificent yet transparent beauty.
Especially at this moment, the way Lan Yu looked at Li Yang was heartbreaking.
The Nature Department were all teenagers, and at that moment they wished they could pluck the stars Moon from the sky, hoping that Lan Yu wouldn't be so heartbroken.
Li Yang managed to maintain her composure.
She had seen Lianxin in adult form, and her threshold was much higher.
The Blue Crystal Clan is indeed beautiful, but it cannot compare to the Ninth-Grade Lianxin.
The latter's beauty is sacred and radiant, its allure so captivating that no one would entertain any thought of desecration.
Li Yang walked up to Lan Yu and said gently, "You've had a hard time these past few days."
Lan Yu's eyes welled up with tears, but she still bit her lower lip tightly, and asked softly, "Venerable One... Blue Crystal Soil..."
"Don't worry, my tutor is an Eighth Grade Realm Peak alchemy Master. I asked her to conduct a detailed analysis of the Blue Crystal Soil, and the final conclusion is... the Blue Crystal Soil contains a special ability that can greatly accelerate the growth rate of Star Plant."
Li Yang patiently answered Lan Yu, which also stunned the group of the Blue Crystal Clan members around him.
They had initially assumed that Lan Yu had fallen for this venerable figure from Huaxia at first sight, but now it seemed there was something else going on between them.
Blue Crystal Soil?
Blue Crystal Soil in the no-man's-land?
The Blue Crystal Clan is very familiar with Blue Crystal Soil. From the moment they are born, the first lesson they learn is to stay away from Blue Crystal Soil.
Most of the Blue Crystal Clan are at the first or Second Grade Realm.
This realm, once approached, will be corroded by the Blue Crystal Soil.
Therefore, Blue Crystal Soil is something they have known about since childhood, but it is also something they resist and fear.
Li Yang looked at the Blue Crystal King and said, "After my last visit to the Blue Crystal Realm Domain, I've always felt that you have even more room for development..."
She spoke eloquently, her voice clear and bright, echoing in the somewhat empty Blue Crystal King, striking a chord in the hearts of all the Blue Crystal Clan.
"I initially discovered that the Blue Crystal Soil had some unique characteristics. If we could figure out its properties, there might be better ways to utilize it. Once we find this way, the Blue Crystal Realm Domain wouldn't have to rely solely on Blue Crystal Stone for survival..."
Li Yang delegated his discovery, analysis, and research on Blue Crystal Soil to Li Yaowan's research institute.
This is more credible and avoids exposing the existence of Sister Longevity.
The Department of the Nature Department has been using Blue Crystal Soil for planting recently, and we have indeed been able to compile a detailed report.
Li Yang then looked at Lan Yu and said, "I didn't explain it to you in detail at the time because I was afraid of getting excited for nothing and causing you unnecessary trouble."
Lan Yu no longer cared about these things; his mind went blank. He clearly heard Li Yang's words, yet he couldn't believe them.
Blue Crystal Realm Domain is found everywhere in the Blue Crystal Soil.
And this can be used to grow Star Plant?
Can it also increase the growth rate of Star Plant?
This was something they wouldn't even dare to dream of!
Li Yang hasn't revealed anything about the Star Core yet—there's no need to—even though she trusts everyone in front of her, she doesn't want to expose it for the time being.
Li Yang added, "Let's go to the no-man's-land, I'll demonstrate for everyone."
The Blue Crystal Clan members slowly came to their senses. The Blue Crystal King excitedly stepped forward and said, "Venerable One! Please follow me!"
Li Yang instructed, "Please temporarily seal off the no-man's-land to prevent other Blue Crystal Clan from accidentally entering."
Blue Crystal King quickly agreed and gave the order to the leader of his personal guard.
Logically speaking, news of the Blue Crystal Clan should not be allowed to spread.
Because of Li Yang's protective contract, the Blue Crystal Clan is unable to leave the Blue Crystal Realm Domain.
However, adhering to the principle of being cautious, Li Yang still chose to impose a lockdown.
Firstly, she didn't need the Blue Crystal Clan's help with planting, so there was no need for them to know; secondly, the Pill Division had been in charge of the Blue Crystal Realm Domain for a long time, so it was hard to guarantee that they didn't have some special means of communication.
In short, being as cautious as possible is the best way to avoid unnecessary complications.
Blue Crystal King's personal guard was very efficient.
The Blue Crystal Clan's settlement is far from the no-man's land, and very few people come here. In order to protect the safety of his people, the Blue Crystal King has always arranged patrol teams.
Therefore, the lockdown can be completed very quickly.
Li Yang and his group boarded the Blue Crystal Realm Domain's flying vehicle and flew towards the uninhabited area.
The students from the Nature Department were quite curious, and even the well-informed scions of prominent families sat there with great interest.
Due to the presence of numerous isolation zones, the Huaxia Realm Domain has not developed any flying Star Artifact.
However, the size of the Huaxia Heavenly Palace is limited, and given the physical abilities of the Star Wielders, there is no need for flying vehicles for transportation.
So this was their first time riding it.
Before long, they arrived at the outskirts of the no-man's-land.
Looking down from the aircraft, the scene is magnificent and vast.
