Chapter 1635
"Oh? There's such a pill?" Jiang Xiaorou was taken aback .
How could any ordinary pill have any effects on the Heaven Fey Ancient Ruins bloodline? Even if there were any that could enhance the bloodline, making them required the most secret techniques possible . Furthermore, there was a need to expend large amounts of resources, and even so, the effects would be insignificant .
Jiang Xiaorou guessed that Yi Yun's pills were impressive, but they were mainly effective for humans . It was difficult to say how effective they were on the Heaven Fey royalty .
However, Jiang Xiaorou thought nothing of it . She thought for a moment before saying, "I will inform the Treasure Fey Pagoda to take note of the items . I'll get them to use private means to spread the news . "
"Alright . " Yi Yun nodded .
With Jiang Xiaorou being Princess Soft Clouds, he would naturally be able to find the materials faster than doing it alone .
"Yun'er, Xintong, stay in Soft Clouds Mountain Manor . I still have so many things to say to you . " Jiang Xiaorou held Yi Yun's hands as her eyes shimmered with delight .
Yi Yun smiled . "Don't worry, Sis Xiaorou . We wouldn't leave even if you wanted to chase us away . I'm just afraid that you will find me irritating whenever you see me . "
"Look at you making fun of me now," said Jiang Xiaorou with a giggle .
They conversed for a little longer and while Jiang Xiaorou was preparing to get someone to settle in Yi Yun and company, she sent out a few voice transmission talismans . She made Treasure Fey Pagoda spread the news and pay attention to any information regarding the herbs and Fey cores .
After this was done, Jiang Xiaorou ate lunch with Yi Yun . The siblings seldom had a reunion meal, so they enjoyed it thoroughly .
After lunch, Jiang Xiaorou planned on sending Yi Yun to Soft Clouds Mountain Manor when she saw Rain Numinous standing by the hall's entrance .
"Aunt Rain . "
"Young Master Lin is your younger brother?"
"Yes…" Jiang Xiaorou noticed that Rain Numinous did not appear to be happy .
"Does the news regarding the herbs you spread through Treasure Fey Pagoda have anything to do with your brother?"
Jiang Xiaorou turned embarrassed when Rain Numinous phrased her sentence that way .
"Do you know that your present status is very delicate in the Heaven Fey Ancient Ruins? Do you know how many eyes are staring at you?"
Jiang Xiaorou fell silent . She knew that it was impossible for Rain Numinous to like Yi Yun . If Yi Yun was a descendant of a family with a pure Fey bloodline, she would have definitely been happy, believing that they had an additional helping hand . However, Yi Yun was human .
Fey ostracized humans to begin with . And Jiang Xiaorou's identity was special . Her mother was of lowly birth and she was pampered by the Blood King . She was already under criticism, but now, there was the addition of a human brother .
Not only so, Jiang Xiaorou was even using the Treasure Fey Pagoda's resources to seek herbs for her brother .
"Leave Young Master Lin's arrangements to me . Treasure Fey Pagoda is still lacking a red-shirt store manager . He can be assigned there . It's best he does not stay in Soft Clouds Mountain Manor before you become a Fey Thearch . It's also best you do not meet often . As for the resources you wish to provide Young Master Lin, it's not impossible . However, it cannot affect your cultivation . Do you know how valuable those treasures you seek are?"
Rain Numinous's tone had become infuriated by the time she finished her sentence . She had been a follower of the Blood King for years . Her cultivation level was approaching that of a Fey Thearch's, so her standing in the Blood King Palace was higher than even the concubines . She was also considered Jiang Xiaorou's senior .
Usually, Rain Numinous was very polite to Jiang Xiaorou, but when she encountered anything she did not approve of, she would not hesitate to reprimand her .
"I have no idea how long it will take to become a Fey Thearch . " Jiang Xiaorou frowned . She understood Rain Numinous's intentions . She did not want her to acknowledge Yi Yun before she became a Fey Thearch .
Being crown designate was a very sensitive matter . If a future Ruins Empress were to openly announce her siblinghood with a human—one that was so close—the Heaven Fey Ancient Ruins would not feel at ease handing the throne of Ruins Empress to her . Perhaps, they might suspect, she would end up giving away all the resources of the Heaven Fey Ancient Ruins .
"Your Highness, you do know that the path to becoming a Fey Thearch is long and arduous . Only by becoming a mighty figure like the Blood King will Your Highness have the ability to protect those around you . Your Highness and Her Majesty are both protected by the Blood King . "
"Aunt Rain, I understand what you are getting at . In fact, the pills my brother wishes to refine are also beneficial to my bloodline . Besides… you do not know my brother . He will not become a burden on me . Back in the lower realm, I was protected by him . Without him, I wouldn't even be standing here alive . He headed to the 12 Empyrean Heavens alone and, without a bloodline or family clan's support, he has attained this much . And now, he found me before I could find him! Aunt Rain, do you think I'll become a Fey Thearch first? Actually, it's more likely that Yun'er will become a Godly Monarch faster than me . "
Jiang Xiaorou trusted Yi Yun wholeheartedly, but Rain Numinous shook her head .
Ignoring the fact that it was very difficult to produce a Godly Monarch—even if Yi Yun's talent was unparalleled, making it easy for him to become a Godly Monarch—Jiang Xiaorou was a royalty elite to begin with . For an elite royal to have the thought of being inferior to a human genius and even rely on them was unacceptable .
Rain Numinous felt that Jiang Xiaorou wished to groom Yi Yun into a Godly Monarch . That way, Jiang Xiaorou would indeed have a stabler future, but how could a future Ruins Empress rely on others?
Perhaps… Xiaorou was ultimately too soft in character . Although she had been fighting for the throne over the years, it was still too difficult to take it with her character .
"I'll arrange for Young Master Lin to live in Soft Clouds Mountain Manor… Also, I will report this to the Blood King . "
Rain Numinous did not continue since Jiang Xiaorou was unamenable to advice . She decided to leave everything to the Blood King .
…
Soft Clouds Mountain Manor was located in the city district behind Heaven Fey City . It was considered outside the city . There were all sorts of manors that housed the different members of royalty nearby .
The mountain manor occupied a vast amount of land . Although it was described as a mountain manor, it was actually no different from a tiny city .
Picturesque scenes and rare beasts could be seen everywhere . It was like an immortal's paradise .
Rain Numinous was silent the entire way while Yi Yun and Lin Xintong followed her in tow . In fact, Yi Yun had guessed what was on Rain Numinous's mind .
His appearance had brought immense pressure on Jiang Xiaorou .
Furthermore, the resources he was seeking were priceless treasures .
Unfortunately, he had expended too much of what he obtained in the God Confusion Valley . If not, he would not have put Sis Xiaorou into a difficult position .
"Tell me if there's anything you need during your stay here in the mountain manor," When Rain Numinous said this, she gave Yi Yun a deep, meaningful look . "It's a critical period for Her Highness; she needs large amounts of resources to nourish her bloodline . In two years, she will be vying for a spot for the Fey Altar, something that will determine her future! Her Highness cannot afford to fail!"
Vying for a spot for the Fey Altar?
Yi Yun's heart stirred, but he did not ask further .
Rain Numinous continued, "Everyone in the mountain manor is conserving resources . The Blood King has also provided Her Highness with large amounts of resources; so please be magnanimous if you encounter any poor hospitality from us . "
Rain Numinous's attitude was cold, but her words remained polite .
How could Yi Yun not understand what she was getting at? He had changed his looks because of the Heavenly Dao fragment, but he felt that he could not keep a low profile anymore . Sis Xiaorou was already in a terrible state, so if he continued keeping a low profile, it was unlikely she could persist on . Furthermore, it would make refining the Myriad Form Shura Pill impossible .
