Chapter 241: Chapter 241 Invitation_1

"What happened at Starforest?"

Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan with a puzzled expression, shook his head, while Feng Yuan, thumbing through the pitch-black ancient book in hand, said,

"Ernis from the Omeilia Region is causing trouble again. I guess the production of Spiritual Medicine and Materials that are specialties of the Omeilia Region will be affected."

"Ernis?"

"Yes, the Creation God of Omeilia Region. But I remember its authority was to create lifeless mechanical objects... How come it’s more medieval than Arnis, whose authority is to create lifeless magical creatures?"

"What’s medieval? What do you mean by that?"

"Nothing much, just think of it as meaning something very outdated."

Glancing at Feng Yuan, Qi Chen said irritably,

"You always come up with these weird terms. But since that’s the case... what about Ah Mu’s evolution potion?"

"I’ll see if I can find a substitute. If there’s really no other way, I’ll go to Starforest and get the Star Leaf for you. By the way, have you gathered all the other materials?"

"Most of them are ready, just a few left."

After looking at the list Qi Chen handed him, which already had many names of Spiritual Medicine and Materials crossed out, Feng Yuan said after careful examination,

"If that’s the case, then in a few days, when they return, I’ll help you collect the Star Leaf. But have you decided for sure? Once you use the potion, there’s no turning back."

Seeing Feng Yuan’s seriousness, Qi Chen smiled and said,

"Would you harm me or Ah Mu?"

"No."

"Then that settles it, doesn’t it? I don’t know much about evolution, and among the people I know in this field, you’re the most skilled. Since you won’t harm Ah Mu, what is there for me to regret?"

Handing the paper back to Qi Chen, Feng Yuan smiled and said,

"I’ll collect the Star Leaf and these things for you. You can handle the rest, right?"

After marking the Spiritual Medicine and Materials mentioned by Feng Yuan on the list, Qi Chen carefully checked the remaining items and said,

"I should be able to. But how do you plan to collect them? I can at least rest on weekends, but you have to work, don’t you?"

"Just get Gitalien to create a portal there, cross-continent transportation is still reliable with it. With Drudgeon, there might be some difficulty."

"Isn’t it a bit much to ask Gitalien for such a small favor...?"

Seeing Qi Chen slightly troubled, Feng Yuan smiled and said,

"No worries, it’ll understand, and besides, I’ll treat it to a meal afterward～"

Glancing at Feng Yuan, Qi Chen said somewhat helplessly, and after a moment of silence,

"Thank you."

"Eh? Are you saying you couldn’t handle it and had to call in reinforcements? Let me think... what can you give me to make it worth my while to reluctantly help you out..."

Seeing Chen Xin appear in the classroom, Feng Yuan walked over with a sneaky smile and said, noticing the hidden resignation in Chen Xin, she shook her head and said,

"I don’t have any issues on my end. I came back just to participate in the Beast Tamer competition. As long as Yue Bai proves its strength in the competition, that’s good proof in itself."

Feng Yuan, curious, said,

"Do you have to prove it through the Beast Tamer competition?"

"If it weren’t for Elder Li presiding over this one, it might not mean much. But... as long as I can demonstrate in front of Elder Li that the Yin Yang Spirit Fox is far stronger than the Bright Moon Spirit Fox, I’m confident I can persuade the Elder Council to take our side."

"Do you need my help?"

"No need. If you mix in with me, those people will list you as an enemy too. You’ve just caused a stir recently; you can’t get involved."

"But I also want to participate in the competition. If you don’t team up with me, doesn’t that mean we can’t..."

Chen Xin interrupted Feng Yuan’s words,

"My purpose in this competition isn’t to win the championship but to prove that he has deceived everyone! As for the championship, I’m not interested."

Listening to Chen Xin’s unequivocal words, Feng Yuan shook his head and said,

"That’s as you wish. But if we really meet on the field, I won’t hold back."

"That’s for the best."

Seeing others also crowd around intending to say something to Chen Xin, Feng Yuan turned to leave, then turned back to look at Chen Xin before departing and said,

"Is it worth it?"

Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, Chen Xin’s body trembled slightly. She looked down at Yue Bai who was obediently standing by her feet, clenched her fist, and whispered to herself in a voice only she could hear,

"Is it worth it... Even though it strays from the goal... it’s worth it!"

Yue Bai seemed to sense the fluctuation in Chen Xin’s emotions and rubbed its fluffy head against her.

Back in his seat, Feng Yuan saw Qi Chen studying the Beast Tamer competition documents and, after thinking for a moment, said to him,

"Later, let’s make a copy of that document and give it to Chen Xin."

Putting down the document he was holding, Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan somewhat curiously and asked,

"Why are you suddenly being so kind-hearted?"

"What do you mean suddenly kind-hearted? You make it sound like I’m usually so bad."

"I remember your relationship with Chen Xin isn’t too great, and you’re not the kind to consider strangers."

Seeing Qi Chen looking at him suspiciously, Feng Yuan sighed and said,

"It’s not that I have a particularly bad relationship with her; it’s just that last time she did come to see me off, so helping out where I can seems right..."

"You have some nerve, she came to see you off early in the morning, and it turns out you didn’t even need to leave."

"How was I supposed to know the punishment would be like that? After all, Elder Li had already given me a deadline to leave."

"Are you planning on letting her command with that document?"

Hearing Qi Chen’s words, Feng Yuan shook his head and glanced at Chen Xin, who was in the crowd, displaying a standard smile and talking to the others, and said,

"No, she won’t be on our team. Giving her the document is just so she’s in the know, probably she rushed back here in a hurry without having time to ask for those documents."

Qi Chen, now somewhat curious, looked at Feng Yuan and asked,

"How do you know she rushed back here? Did she tell you?"

"No, but she was still in Shangjing debating with them yesterday, and now she’s rushed back today, do you think that was planned?"

Thinking about the distance between the two places, Qi Chen fell silent. After conversing a bit more, Feng Yuan said,

"So I’ll leave the document to you then~"

"What are you going to do?"

"Help you collect things~"

Upon hearing Feng Yuan’s words, Qi Chen didn’t react at first, then after a moment, realizing Feng Yuan was referring to helping him gather Spiritual Medicine and Materials, he hurriedly said,

"There’s no need to rush, right? And we’re not getting out of school early today, are you not planning to come back tonight?"

Feng Yuan smiled mysteriously and said,

"Of course, I’ll come back tonight. You’ll just have to let me in~ As for why I’m in a rush... they’re only here to rest for a bit now, if I don’t take this chance, I’ll have to wait again."

Seeing that Feng Yuan seemed to have made up his mind, Qi Chen didn’t try to persuade him further and after a moment of silence, he said,

"In that case, try to come back early."

"I will do my best."

After school in the afternoon, Feng Yuan returned to the dormitory with Xiao Ji and Dreaming Dragon Baby, and saw Big Cat assembling something. Feng Yuan raised his voice and said,

"Big Cat, can you stop for a moment?"

"Meow?"

Stopping his work, Big Cat turned his head toward Feng Yuan with a puzzled look, while Najia grasped the upper bunk’s railing, sticking out his head and staring curiously at Feng Yuan.

"We’re planning to go out for a bit; pack up your things and come along, Big Cat. You too, Najia?"

"Gina?"

Seeing Najia looking confused, Feng Yuan smiled and said,

"I’ve arranged to meet with Lorraine Tower and the others later, and after we collect what Qi Chen needs, we’re going to a special place to eat. How about it? Do you want to join us?"

Looking at Feng Yuan’s expectant gaze, Najia hesitated for a moment before floating onto Feng Yuan’s shoulder. Feng Yuan petted Big Cat’s head and said,

"You too, hurry up~"

"Meow."

Glancing at Feng Yuan, Big Cat slowly gathered his things. After a while, Feng Yuan left the dorm with Xiao Ji and the others perched on his head, looking forward to meeting Lorraine Tower and its companions.
