Nonetheless, Lin Yuan would not mistreat these people.
He could promise the Spirit Craftsmen working in the marsh world high-quality Bronze feys and bright futures, but the same prize would not be appealing to ordinary people who could not become spirit qi professionals.
Thus, Lin Yuan planned to raise these people’s standard of living.
Just as Sun Ningxiang was about to ask Lin Yuan about any other conditions he had for these people, Lin Yuan said, “Each of these people will gain ten boxes of various fruits that will be able to improve their health and 7.5 kilograms of various meats. There will be Spirit Craftsmen there who will be able to build 200 square meter houses equipped with household feys like the Jasmine Lily. There will also be healing-type spirit qi professionals there to provide free healing services.”
Sun Ningxiang felt that such a life would be a paradise for ordinary people.
The people working in breeding bases were from a small community. They mostly stuck with their family any time that they were not working. All they wanted was a stable and comfortable life.
Besides the ten times higher wages that Lin Yuan was going to provide, the standard of living that he was offering would be attractive to any of them. These people usually worked hard their entire lives in the Radiance Federation and still would not be able to buy a 200-square-meter house.
“Lin Yuan, I will get this done as soon as possible. How many people do you have in mind?”
Lin Yuan pondered for some time before saying, “I’m planning on setting aside 200 square kilometers. You can estimate the number of people who will be able to run a breeding base of such size and hire that number.”
Sun Ningxiang was astonished by the area that Lin Yuan declared. It was as large as a district in a major city.
Such a large area would indeed require many people. At least 100,000 people were required.
Both Lin Yuan and Sun Ningxiang were decisive people, and they settled the matter with a few statements.
As Liu Yuan listened to Lin Yuan and Sun Ningxiang’s conversation, she blinked a few times when they were done.
She had often represented Condense Fairy Orchard in discussions with other factions during her youth. Each time, the discussions had involved both sides fighting for a larger share of the benefits. Neither side would compromise or try to scheme.
However, Lin Yuan and Sun Ningxiang seemed to have a sort of compatibility.
It could also be said that Lin Yuan did not care about the number of investments he would have to provide if it meant that he could accomplish his goal.
Liu Yuan had wanted Sun Ningxiang to fight for a chance to become a Radiance Knight.
But now that Sun Ningxiang’s eyes were full of fiery passion over how she could fulfill the task that Lin Yuan gave her, there was no way she still had any space in her mind to think about increasing her power and becoming a Radiance Knight.
Now that Sun Ningxiang was closer to Lin Yuan, she might be able to become even better friends with Lin Yuan. However, if they continued along this trajectory, it would be even more unlikely for any romance to blossom between the two of them.
Liu Yuan had experience and saw everything clearly. Yet, she did not know how to talk about it with Sun Ningxiang.
Liu Yuan sighed.
Forget it. Grandchildren have their own way of living life. I shouldn’t worry. Since this involves the Moon Empress’ disciple, I don’t have the right to worry either.

At this time, Liu Jie had already laid out the food.
Ever since the Mother of Bloodbath saw that ribbon of sunlight, its emotions had been a tangled mess.
In order to distract the Mother of Bloodbath, Lin Yuan sent the Mother of Bloodbath off with its foodie friends to visit restaurants that were popular online. Hence, it was currently not in the mansion.
As such, only Lin Yuan, Liu Jie, Sun Ningxiang, and Liu Yuan were present for this meal.
Liu Jie had prepared food that Sun Ningxiang had listed, which were all suited to Liu Yuan’s tastes.
Liu Yuan and Sun Ningxiang almost swallowed their tongues while scarfing down the food.
After the meal, Liu Yuan and Sun Ningxiang left quickly to prepare administrative affairs.
After Condense Fairy Orchard became a part of Sky City, Sun Ningxiang would have to start on the task that Lin Yuan gave her.
Sun Ningxiang and Liu Yuan would be kept busy for a long time.
While Lin Yuan and Liu Jie were discussing the expansion into the Divine Wood Federation, Mystic Moon was stuck between a rock and a hard place in the Radiance Federation’s imperial court.
This was the first time that Mystic Moon was attending a meeting in the imperial court. Given his endless achievements, Mystic Moon had the right to become a member of royalty. Although he could not take the test to become a member of royalty since he was the Moon Empress’ Moon Envoy, he could speak with the other members of royalty as an equal.
However, Mystic Moon felt wholly awkward because he knew that the Moon Empress was no longer doomed now that she had formed a contract with the Lifespan Mouse. As long as no one killed the Lifespan Mouse, she would be able to live even longer than the other members of royalty.
Mystic Moon had guessed that Night Leaning Moon had attacked the First Emperor Shark Clan because of Liu Jie and more so the fact that she found out that the Moon Empress only had three years left in her lifespan.
Evidently, his guess was right.
Ever since the imperial meeting started, besides that old man, Cicada Song, and Ji Changdeng, the other members of royalty had all asked Night Leaning Moon about what had happened.

Night Leaning Moon had not clearly explained herself, but it was impossible to keep the matter under wraps now that the matter had progressed to such an extent.
Under the other seven members of royalty’s questioning gazes, Cicada Song had no choice but to explain the situation frustratedly.
It would have been better not to explain the situation. But now that the situation had been exposed, the entire imperial court exploded.
The Bamboo Monarch, who owed the Moon Empress a favor, wanted to immediately ride out to search for spiritual ingredients that could extend lifespans.
This made Mystic Moon so touched as he knew that the Bamboo Monarch truly felt deep gratitude toward the Moon Empress and wanted to do anything to repay her.
However, as a Moon Envoy, Mystic Moon could not reveal the truth about her lifespan being restored without her permission.
Chef Supreme, who had been silent all this time, said, “I am on good terms with the Azure Winged Tiger family, which is one of the 12 Class 5 families in the Azure Federation. While the Bamboo Monarch is searching for spiritual ingredients to prolong lifespans, I will head to the Azure Federation. The Azure Winged Tiger family definitely has essence blood from the Azure Winged Tiger, and it can evolve lifespans.

“The Moon Empress just has to use one drop of essence blood every day for a year, and she will be able to gain another three months of lifespan. But after a year, the essence blood will not work anymore, and we’ll have to come up with another solution.”
Mystic Moon was at his breaking point now.
The Moon Empress had said she would only emerge during the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection. In the time up till then, he could not sit by and watch as the members of royalty drove themselves into a frenzy.
