Cold Moon also revealed a rare smile on her normally cold face. She wasn’t just happy for the Moon Empress; she was actually influenced by the atmosphere.

After some casual talk, the Moon Empress’ face suddenly turned serious and stern.

“I have been considering and feel that it is better to pick a Path Protector for you early. If you are in danger, at least, your safety is guaranteed.”

Lin Yuan didn’t refuse and nodded. “Master, I shall listen to your arrangement.”

The Moon Empress’ smile was maintained on her face as Lin Yuan didn’t refuse. This disciple that she had accepted was rather strong-minded and wasn’t very used to relying on her. Therefore, as his Master, the Moon Empress struggled to speak some of the words.

Now that Lin Yuan accepted in such a straightforward manner, the Moon Empress made a rare joke. “Your Path Protector is in this inner palace and within your vision. Let’s see if you can find the individual.”

Lin Yuan looked around the large hall, and his eyes finally landed on Cold Moon. He involuntarily thought, Master wouldn’t have arranged for Cold Moon to be my Path Protector, right!?

Cold Moon smiled and looked at Lin Yuan; she didn’t speak nor nod.

At that moment, Lin Yuan suddenly felt a weight on his shoulder, while a strange voice echoed from it. The voice sounded rather chilly, and it made his hair stand on end. However, this eerie female voice was also abnormally pleasant.

“Kid, where are you looking? Your Path Protector is here!”

When Lin Yuan felt a weight on his shoulder, he knew that something had landed on it. He turned around and noticed that a red and crystal sculpture-like spider had actually landed on his shoulder.

The spider legs had bright red crystal-like hair and were so red that they were dazzling as if dipped in blood. Its outer shell looked like it was sculpted from a red crystal, bright red at that, that gave off a cruel beauty. This spider lifeform looked just like a flawless product of heaven.

However, its eight slender legs and body were filled with spikes that exhibited its prowess.

At the same time, Lin Yuan felt as though he could smell a faint aura of blood from this spider. It was as if it emitted a layer of sticky blood energy.

As Lin Yuan was observing this red crystal-like spider, the latter was also observing Lin Yuan carefully.

Lin Yuan observed for a moment before he turned to look at the Moon Empress, who nodded. “That’s right. This is your Path Protector. Mother of Bloodbath. It is a Suzerain/Myth I fey.”

After hearing the Moon Empress’ words, he couldn’t help but exclaim in his mind, My Master actually got a fey as my Path Protector, and a Myth I at that? But what is Suzerain grade?

“Suzerain fey?”

Before the Moon Empress could speak, the Mother of Bloodbath was already replying, “Suzerain-grade is above diamond-grade, Suzerain—”

Before the Mother of Bloodbath could finish talking, it suddenly closed its mouth as it could see the Moon Empress looking at it with cold eyes.

The Moon Empress looked at the Mother of Bloodbath with anger. My fine disciple is finally asking a question. As his Master, I haven’t even given my guidance, so why are you trying to answer?

The Moon Empress ignored the Mother of Bloodbath’s initial explanation and started from the beginning again. “Diamond-grade isn’t actually the limit. Suzerain-grade comes after diamond-grade. Suzerain feys will be able to produce a domain that is in accordance with their exclusive skill. The sky of moonlight that you saw previously was Cold Moon Lone Disk’s domain power.”

Lin Yuan was carefully noting down the Moon Empress’ words and heard her saying again, “This world doesn’t just have human experts, but also fey experts. For a fey to evolve into a Fantasy Breed, the easiest method is to form a contract with humans. Once its quality reaches Legend, and the fey fuses with the contractor’s Willpower Rune, it can become a Fantasy Breed. However, this isn’t the only method for a fey to become a Fantasy Breed.”

The Moon Empress paused for a moment, and when she noticed that Lin Yuan was listening intently to her, she nodded with satisfaction and continued. “A fey without a contractor will generally reach its limit at Diamond. However, if it can upgrade its quality to Legend at the Diamond, then they might have a chance to comprehend a Willpower Rune. It would allow them to fuse with the newly comprehended Willpower Rune and become a Fantasy Breed.”

Lin Yuan was flabbergasted. This was his first time hearing that a fey could evolve into a Fantasy Breed without a contractor. However, according to what the Moon Empress said, a fey would need to be at least diamond-grade before it could become a Fantasy Breed.

Lin Yuan couldn’t help but recall the two Silver Stamen Gold Luster Cassias planted at the Radiant Moon Palace entrance as they were already Diamond X/Legend. They were probably waiting to comprehend a Willpower Rune to upgrade into a Fantasy Breed.

Before Lin Yuan could continue thinking more, the Moon Empress continued speaking. “A wild fey might be able to become a Fantasy Breed at diamond-grade, but it would still be stuck at diamond-grade. It can only evolve to suzerain-grade after its quality reaches Fantasy V.”

Lin Yuan gasped with admiration as the evolution of lifeforms in the river of life was one that never rested. After hearing the concept of suzerain-grade for the first time, Lin Yuan involuntarily asked, “Is suzerain-grade much stronger than diamond-grade?”

The Mother of Bloodbath couldn’t keep its mouth shut anymore. “Diamond and Suzerain are two completely different levels. It isn’t possible to even compare them. When a Fantasy V fey evolves to the suzerain-grade, it will experience a World Cleansing. Only those who evolve to suzerain-grade after the World Cleansing have the possibility to reach Myth Breed. The Moon Empress rescued me during the World Cleansing, and thus I am willing to be the Path Protector for a young runt like you.”

The Mother of Bloodbath revealed a slight trace of fear when mentioning the World Cleansing. Hence, Lin Yuan understood that the World Cleansing was considered an opportunity and also a calamity for feys.

The beautiful thing about life was that it would transform and undergo rebirth after a calamity. If it couldn’t surpass the calamity, then the evolution process would cease to exist in the river of life.

The Moon Empress looked at Lin Yuan solemnly and said, “This is considered a top secret of the Radiance Federation. Only king-class experts are qualified to know, so most of the people place their attention on the quality of feys and neglect their grade, which is the most fundamental attribute. In order to evolve to suzerain-grade, the fey will have to reach Fantasy V at diamond-grade. In the eyes of any Suzerain fey, all feys that aren’t at the Suzerain are just ants that are slightly more powerful.”

Lin Yuan didn’t know much about the Myth Breed. He only knew that it was above the Fantasy Breed. But now, he learned that in order to reach the Myth Breed, a fey had to reach Fantasy V and evolve to suzerain-grade first.

Lin Yuan had always felt doubtful as to why all the Fantasy Breed feys were only at diamond-grade. He finally understood now. Only when a Diamond/Fantasy V fey reached suzerain-grade would the said fey be able to get access and ascend into a Myth Breed!
