Fey Evolution Merchant

1954 Young Girl Digging Under the Scorching Sun!

Lin Yuan’s words caused the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil to instinctively reach out to hug him.

The Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil was now Lin Yuan’s contracted fey, and Lin Yuan was not going to turn down its sincere emotional gesture.

Nonetheless, he felt strange to be hugged by a female devil.

After it hugged Lin Yuan, the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil drank the rest of the grayish-green liquid in the bowl.

Soon, a dark green flower sprouted in the Flower Basket of Calamity and glowed with a dray light. A beautiful dark green embroidery of the same Calamity Flower appeared and bloomed on the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil’s robes.

The dark green flower did not stand out amongst the ten colored flowers.

But the dark-colored chain gave the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil’s robes a completely different feeling.

After the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil drank the bowl of pure elemental energy, Lin Yuan noticed that its bloodline had been refined to a noticeable extent.

Apparently, the Satan bloodline was not the limit of the devil bloodline. It was likely that the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil’s bloodline could transform again in the future.

Nonetheless, this could only happen if Lin Yuan managed to obtain more types of pure elemental energy.

Now that he was done evolving the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil, Lin Yuan returned it to the Spiritual spatial zone.

He did a quick count and realized that more than seven days had already passed since the last Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting.

Now that all the members of the Astronomical Parliament possessed the Thoughts Letter Paper, it had become their main channel of communication.

Bei Xu and Bu Po were the most communicative and had become close friends.

This was because they shared very similar experiences and because Lin Yuan, Wen Yu, and Su Yiren were much too busy.

Ta Lei used to be active in sending messages. But ever since he started to manage his territory, he did not even have enough time to sleep.

Wo Lun occasionally chimed in during Bei Xu and Bu Po’s conversations.

Overall, the Astronomical Parliament’s internal group had a good flow of communication.

Almost everything could be discussed using the Thoughts Letter Paper. Thus, there was no need to hold the parliamentary meeting most of the time.

This time, Lin Yuan was only going into the marsh world to see Wen Yu and ask her to hold the Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting because too much time had passed, and it was time for a new member to join.

Since Wen Yu was trying to strengthen her link to every member of the Astronomical Parliament, she could not accept too many members at once despite her substantial increase in spiritual energy.

However, Wen Yu and Lin Yuan were not bothered by this. They had always asserted quality over quantity when it came to the Astronomical Parliament’s members.

At the same moment that Lin Yuan entered the marsh world to see Wen Yu, a young girl with skin that was covered with sunburns was using her hands to dig the dirt by her feet on the cracked ground.

She did not use any tools because to her, her hands were her best tools.

Her fingernails were long, and the skin of her hands was pale, making her hands resemble knives.

As she dug under the scorching sun, it did not take long for her body to be covered in sweat.

When the sweat rolled over her burnt skin, her whole body started to itch, and her skin turned faint red due to the blood rising in her pores.

Nonetheless, she did not dare to stop because she knew that there were only three months of rainfall on the continent she lived in. At any other time, there was no way to obtain even a single drop of water.

As such, water was the most important resource in this continent.

The young girl doggedly dug the ground by her feet because she guessed that the Duck-Mouthed Lungfish had buried itself underground at this spot.

During the rainy season, the Duck-Mouthed Lungfish would tunnel out of the ground and enter the rivers formed by rains to consume the spirit qi professionals and feys who tried to fetch water from the river.

But during the dry season, it would bury itself underground and become immobilized as it entered a state of hibernation. During this time, it would be easy prey. Thus, the Duck-Mouthed Lungfish would try to bury itself as deep underground as possible.

The girl was searching for the Duck-Mouthed Lungfish so zealously because it took in water from the mud while it hibernated and because she hoped that the Duck-Mouthed Lungfish would be Silver grade and below so that she could form a contract with it.

Once she formed a contract with a water-type fey, even if it was just the Duck-Mouthed Lungfish, she would have the ability to produce water from the air.

In the Broiling Rock Continent, any person who had the ability to produce water would gain the respected title of Rain Master and be able to find a job in one of the large cities.

Hence, finding one of the Duck-Mouthed Lungfish in the parched lands was the most important test in the lives of every young person who lived in the Broiling Rock Continent.

If they could not live in one of the large cities, they would not be able to enjoy the lakes in the cities.

In the dry season, they did not have any life preservers, and no one wanted to live like that.

The blistering daytime lasted for more than 16 hours each day.

Without a water-type fey, spirit qi professionals below C-rank would not be able to hold out for more than eight hours in such searing weather.

Thus, any stone wall that could be used as a shelter would have many spirit qi professionals taking refuge under it.

Unless one lived in one of the larger cities of the Broiling Rock Continent or was a spirit qi professional, the only ending would be death in the sizzling weather.

After a spirit qi professional couple had children, they would bring them up till around the age of 15 years old. Then, the children would be chased away.

This was the same as when mother lions chased away their cubs when resources were scarce.

This girl was clearly younger than 15 years old, yet she was already digging for the Duck-Mouthed Lungfish. This was because her parents never returned after they left the rock shelter in the dry season the previous year.

The girl did not know if they had met with an accident or shed her as dead weight.

Regardless, this young girl that was not even 13 years old had to fend for herself in the dry season.

Recently, whenever she returned to the rock shelter region, she received looks of pity. The reason behind the sympathy was not her parents leaving, as this was common, but because she was so severely sunburnt.

With such serious sunburns and no Rain Masters to help to wash her wounds, the salt seeping into the open wounds and the burning rays from the sun would cause her skin to start festering in less than five days.

This morning, the young girl had already sensed a clear odor emanating from herself. She knew that she would not be able to last another two days.
