Recruiting Duan He
Recruiting Duan He
Lin Yuan also set up the 36 Bronze/Epic Floating Cloud Flowers, placing one flower between three spinning roulettes.
Shortly after, elusive clouds rose from the flowers and shrouded the bright constellations and roulettes.
The light could not be completely hidden. The clouds were only meant to add an air of mystery and create the magical atmosphere of being amongst clouds.
Lin Yuan was basically done with decorating.
Lin Yuan thought for a while before raising his hand and storing away the jade-textured wood table Hu Quan had made.
He did not replace the complementary ordinary wood table that was given to all faction territories.
The ordinary wood table was extremely common. There was a Bronze/Legend Oath Lily of the Valley placed on it.
Each of the white bell-like flowers of the Oath Lily of the Valley gleamed softly. It was like the flowers were collecting the promises of the mortal world under the clouds and roulettes in the sky.
After Lin Yuan left his private territory, he noticed that the number of people gathering outside had increased by at least five times.
There were even more who were coming over.
Those first few people must have called more people over after seeing Lin Yuan go in.
Lin Yuan could not help but sigh as he wondered why these people were not enjoying the new year or sleeping.
Do they just gawk all day?
Lin Yuan did not have time to waste on these people.
On the third day of the new year, Sky City's spectacle of clouds would be even more stunning.
After leaving Star Web, Lin Yuan plucked the Cinnabar Sweet Osmanthus from the Pure Land of Bliss. He intended on planting the Cinnabar Sweet Osmanthus in front of the mansion's entrance.
Lin Yuan had been keeping the Cinnabar Sweet Osmanthus in the Spirit Lock spatial zone because of the Cinnabar Osmanthus Haworthia growing on it.
Lin Yuan really needed the Cinnabar Osmanthus Haworthia to increase his energy.
Since the Cinnabar Osmanthus Haworthia had left the Cinnabar Sweet Osmanthus, Lin Yuan wanted to pour out the soil on the Pure Land of Bliss.
The Cinnabar Sweet Osmanthus without its tree core would never recover.
Planting a new flower species in the mansion added a hint of elegance to the mansion.
The sky was starting to brighten. While Lin Yuan was instructing the Source Sand to dig in front of the door, he heard Wen Yu's voice.
"Young Master, you haven't slept the entire night. Why don't you drink some of the purple sesame lamb soup that Liu Jie slowly simmered last night."
Wen Yu knew that Hu Quan's Vitality Sloth had replenished Lin Yuan's vitality.
He would not have been able to sleep that night.
However, she did not expect to find him gardening at the break of dawn.
Wen Yu was a spirit attendant in the Radiant Moon Palace and immediately recognized that Lin Yuan was about to plant the Cinnabar Sweet Osmanthus.
The Cinnabar Sweet Osmanthus was not an outstanding species of osmanthus.
It was considered upper-middle, and its most interesting aspect was that it changed drastically when it evolved.
The legendary extinct species of osmanthus was an evolved form of the Cinnabar Sweet Osmanthus.
Even the Moon Empress had chosen to plant several Cinnabar Sweet Osmanthus in the Leaning Moon Mountain's garden.
Several of them had evolved to the higher grade of osmanthus feys.
According to Wen Yu's memory, not even the lushest Cinnabar Sweet Osmanthus in Leaning Moon Mountain's garden was half as lush as Lin Yuan's Cinnabar Sweet Osmanthus.
The clustering tufts of scarlet flowers were already weighing down the strong branches.
Lin Yuan took a sip of the purple sesame lamb soup Wen Yu served him.
When his taste buds were drenched in the freshness of the lamb meat and the spiciness of the purple sesame, Lin Yuan felt a warmth enter his body.
When he swallowed the soup, small beads of sweat appeared on his nose.
Liu Jie could not help but marvel at Liu Jie's improving cooking skills.
Recently, Liu Jie liked to cook medicinal food.
Medicinal dishes made of fresh ingredients and some feys with medicinal properties had a special flavor.
Lin Yuan checked the time and saw that it was only a little past 6:00 a.m.
"Why are you up so early?" asked Lin Yuan.
Liu Jie was usually the first one to wake up in the mansion. He usually woke up at 7:00 a.m.
When Liu Jie started making breakfast at around 7:30 a.m., Wen Yu would walk out of her room.
Wen Yu received the medicinal soup that Lin Yuan drank and explained softly, "Last night, you said that you wanted information on Duan He, so I asked a spirit attendant in Hidden Moon Pavilion to help me look through Duan He's personalized magazine."
Wen Yu was always aware of her skills and the role she needed to play in Sky City.
When she was a spirit attendant in Radiant Moon Palace, Wen Yu had regarded herself as extremely talented.
Apart from her aptitude as a Creation Master, she was considered rather powerful amongst the spirit attendants.
However, ever since becoming Lin Yuan's personal assistant and getting to know Liu Jie, Listen, and Chu Ci, Wen Yu came to understand that power was innate. It could not be compared with others no matter what.
Hence, Wen Yu had taken Mystic Moon's suggestion and had started focusing her efforts on managing the information and organizational aspects of Lin Yuan's private faction.
She was not determinedly striving toward governance.
Up till then, Wen Yu had been rather downtrodden.
It was because she had not managed to gather even one Willpower Rune.
After hearing what Wen Yu said, Lin Yuan knew that she had not slept last night as well.
"Wen Yu, what do you think about us recruiting Duan He?"
Wen Yu pondered over his statement.
"Young Master, I think it'll be good for us to recruit Duan He," replied Wen Yu.
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow. Ever since establishing Sky City, he had not contributed as much as Wen Yu.
Wen Yu was usually the strictest when it came to picking new talented individuals.
Duan He's character and skills must be impressive if he managed to tear a compliment from Wen Yu.
"Tell me about the information you learned about Duan He last night."
Wen Yu did not look through the organized information in her hands. She had already memorized all of the information surrounding Duan He.
"Duan He's character is beyond reproach. When he was king-class, he was once Captain of the Spirit Guards."
Lin Yuan was stunned to hear that he had been a Spirit Guard Captain.
Lin Yuan's parents had both been part of the Spirit Guards. Thus, the title of Spirit Guard Captain held a special meaning to him.
Any person who protected the sanctity of life in the face of danger was worth respecting in Lin Yuan's books.
They were also the most adorable people!
