Chapter 487: Chapter 487 Communication of Intelligence_1

"I thought you weren’t planning on coming back!"

"Have you forgotten our original purpose?"

...

Feng Yuan lay his head on the table, watching Yao Yin, who stood in front of him seething with anger, continuously reprimanding him. Guo Huai hid at the top of the stairs, secretly looking over and shivering, while the members of a merchant caravan who had just arrived in Yongning City at night looked fearfully at Yao Yin. At this time, the Shop Assistant hurried over to warmly receive them and lead them aside.

Those merchants occasionally cast furtive glances towards Yao Yin, who, busy scolding Feng Yuan, seemed to not notice their stares. She might have been aware but simply didn’t care, because, in Yao Yin’s eyes, those people weren’t worth mentioning. If they provoked her, she could easily send them to reincarnation with a flick of her hand.

After a while, when the Shop Assistant brought the food with a scared face, Yao Yin stopped her lecturing and sat opposite Feng Yuan, staring at him intently.

Glancing at Yao Yin, Feng Yuan picked up his chopsticks, tried a bite of the stir-fried dish, and said,

"How can I eat with you staring at me like that?"

"Hmph!"

Angrily, Yao Yin glared at Feng Yuan, got up, and returned to her room on the second floor. Guo Huai quickly dodged to the side to clear the staircase as Yao Yin glanced at him and said with disdain,

"Coward."

Guo Huai did not respond. He understood why Yao Yin was so furious. He sat down beside Feng Yuan and asked in a low voice,

"What on earth did you go off to do?"

"Uh... Mizuo sha..."

"Could you swallow what’s in your mouth before speaking, please..."

Feng Yuan glanced at Guo Huai and said,

"What’s with all of you? You seem quite off."

With a sigh, Guo Huai responded helplessly,

"Do you have any idea what big event has recently happened? All our previous conjectures were wrong..."

"What big event?"

After thinking, Feng Yuan said,

"Are you talking about Bei Ding? If it’s about that, let’s discuss it back in the room later."

Feng Yuan’s gaze swept over the merchants. Following his glance, Guo Huai didn’t notice anything unusual but understood that Feng Yuan was unlikely to be spouting nonsense. Nodding his head, Guo Huai said,

"Then we’ll wait for you in your room. Finish your meal quickly and don’t wander off again."

Waving his hand, Feng Yuan indicated he understood. Guo Huai looked at Feng Yuan worriedly before turning to return to the second floor. Agunas’s ethereal shadow flicked its tail somberly. The Little Green Snake, busy eating, glanced at Feng Yuan and, seeing he didn’t seem particularly worried, continued to eat while its eyes wandered, seemingly lost in thought.

Noticing Pomiti trying to jump off the table with food, the Little Green Snake gently swept her back to the center of the table with its tail. Xia Ji bumped into Pomiti with its body; the two plump little creatures collided like two bouncing balls, sending Xia Ji and Pomiti rebounding in opposite directions.

Seeing their antics, Feng Yuan played with Pomiti’s fur and said,

"Don’t run off; if someone else takes you, it’ll be troublesome."

Pomiti stared blankly at Feng Yuan, its bright little eyes blinking as if not understanding what he was saying. Feng Yuan tapped Pomiti’s forehead and said in exasperation,

"You, don’t run off. It would be very troublesome if someone took you away."

Confused, Pomiti looked at Feng Yuan before eventually giving up on thinking and contentedly nibbled on its food with narrowed eyes.

Seeing this, Feng Yuan had no choice but to tell the Little Green Snake and Xia Ji,

"Please, keep an eye on this one and don’t let anyone take it."

The Little Green Snake glanced at Feng Yuan and nodded. Xia Ji seemed a bit unhappy, shifted its body to show its back to Feng Yuan, and flicked its tiny tail. Feng Yuan reached out to turn Xia Ji to face him and, staring into its eyes, said,

"Did you hear that?"

Xia Ji let out a displeased chirp and wriggled free from Feng Yuan’s "clutches," moving to Pomiti’s side to eat.

"All right, you’re probably angry because of the situation in Bei Ding City, right?"

Having laid the Barrier, Feng Yuan leaned against the window sill and spoke to Yao Yin, who sat in a chair. Yao Yin glanced at him and responded discontentedly,

"I was starting to think you weren’t even aware of what happened in Bei Ding City."

"How could I not be? It’s been all over the Great Li, hasn’t it?"

"I never expected their target to be Bei Ding..."

Resting against the doorframe, Guo Huai spoke up in a resigned tone, "All our previous speculations were wrong." After they had nearly wiped out all the surrounding animals, to receive such news was almost laughable.

Feng Yuan glanced at Guo Huai and said irritably,

"Did you think they didn’t want to target Yongning?"

"Could it be..."

Yao Yin looked at Feng Yuan with some skepticism. Spreading his hands, Feng Yuan said helplessly,

"I happened to bump into it, otherwise why do you think I would be delayed for such a long time."

"What did they do!"

Yao Yin asked somewhat anxiously, her voice unconsciously raising a notch. Feng Yuan glanced at Yao Yin with some surprise and said,

"You’ve actually become friends with someone from a lower world?"

"Why not? As long as we get along, why can’t we be friends."

"Don’t change the subject. What exactly did they do!"

Yao Yin stared at Feng Yuan and asked loudly, waving her hand as Feng Yuan said,

"They didn’t plan on causing another beast tide, after all, they’ve already been hit once. If it were to happen again, everyone would be suspicious. What they want to do is to enrage Karnas."

"Karnas?"

Guo Huai was somewhat puzzled, and Yao Yin had never heard of this name before. Guo Huai asked his system in his mind.

[What is Karnas?]

『Searching, please wait...』

"Karnas, similar to Yognot, is a special Spirit Beast that carries special rules that cannot yet be integrated into the world. To some extent, they are beings with eternal life."

"But because those rules cannot be integrated into the current world, they are subjected to various special limitations and flaws."

『Search abandoned.』

Guo Huai was somewhat speechless about the system, and Feng Yuan glanced at Guo Huai saying,

"Remember Yognot? As long as it’s awake, it uncontrollably alters the weather, creating vast areas of drought, and even areas close to Yognot will experience combustion."

"Whereas Karnas causes mineralization. Although its range isn’t as exaggerated as Yognot’s, correspondingly, the mineralization caused by Karnas happens gradually around it, whether it’s awake or not."

"Could it be..."

Guo Huai thought of something and looked at Feng Yuan in surprise, saying,

"No living being can approach it?!"

Feng Yuan smiled and looked out the window, saying,

"That’s not the case."

Feng Yuan briefly explained about Karnas, and Yao Yin immediately understood the other party’s intention, looking at Feng Yuan with a complex expression and saying,

"I’m sorry, I thought... I thought you had run off to play..."

Feng Yuan looked at Yao Yin with surprise and said,

"I’m not that idle. Previously, I went to find someone, and later when I heard about Karnas, I had to rush to deal with its issues."

"I’ve been really busy, okay?"

Glancing at Feng Yuan, the shadowy figure of Agunas swished its tail and after some thought, decided not to expose him. Guo Huai looked at Feng Yuan with some concern and said,

"Are they really safe on Mist Island now? What would happen if they were enraged?"

Feng Yuan smiled slightly and said,

"What do you think would happen with a rule-based attack? Except for the Divine Beasts, which can resist the mineralization, other Spirit Beasts, even the Sacred Beasts, can’t handle it~"

"That’s to say, you’d see Divine Beasts urgently gathering to team up and fight a boss~"

Yao Yin looked at Feng Yuan and said,

"What puzzles me is, how did they come across information about Karnas? I believe you didn’t know of its existence at first, right?"

Nodding his head, Feng Yuan sighed and said,

"I really didn’t know, because in the original history, Karnas should have already been enraged and would eventually..."

"To think that would happen..."

Guo Huai said in a low voice with some distress,

"It did nothing wrong and yet had to bear such unfortunate curse... and still..."

"Didn’t they try to find a solution?"

Yao Yin looked at Feng Yuan incredulously and shouted, stroking Xiao Ji in her arms, Feng Yuan said in a low voice,

"Do you think if it were possible, it would really give up? It’s not the Divine Beasts that decide their fate..."

"It..."

Yao Yin had a complex look on her face, uncertain about how to view It.
