Chapter 2080 - 2080 Hope to Die Before You!

2080 Hope to Die Before You!

Cicada Song had been frowning as he tried to come up with a way to extend the Spacetime Elder’s lifespan.

Cicada Song was not a Creation Master and did not have Creation Master abilities. Thus, the only solutions he could come up with involved searching for treasures.

Cicada Song was in charge of the City Lords of the Radiance Federation’s 36 major cities. It could be said that every City Lord was his subordinate.

Furthermore, Cicada Song was in charge of organizing the information from different federations to keep the Radiance Federation’s network of information up to date.

Thus, Cicada Song knew that there were some treasures that could extend one’s lifespan within certain federations.

However, these treasures could save lives.

By increasing the lives of the strongest experts in the federation, the life of the federation itself would be safeguarded.

There was no way that the other factions would be willing to trade these lifespan-extending treasures, even if they lacked Creation Master resources.

Furthermore, the Spacetime Elder was not the type to start a war just so he could extend his lifespan.

The Moon Empress was the youngest and had the most talent. However, she had only just awakened her birth horoscope and still needed an untold amount of time before she could set her spirit fire alight.

Although the Moon Empress had declared to the Freedom Federation and Azure Federation during the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection that she was a Class 6 Creation Master, there was no way she would be able to fend off the Freedom Federation, which was ready to go to arms at any time.

Thus, whether it was for the sake of their personal relationship or the Radiance Federation, Cicada Song did not want the Spacetime Elder to die.

While Cicada Song was thinking, he did not notice the Moon Empress and Lin Yuan. It was only when the Moon Empress spoke that his train of thought was broken.

Cicada Song was not shocked to see the Moon Empress, but he was confused to see Lin Yuan with her.

Cicada Song did not think too much of it and said to the Moon Empress, “The Spacetime Elder woke up yesterday evening. Xia Qing is tending to him now. Xiyue, you and Night Leaning Moon are on good terms with Xia Qing. Go and coax her. She is so pitiful now!”

Cicada Song could not bring himself to continue speaking. He sighed and walked out of the imperial court.

Lin Yuan knew about Xia Qing, but he did not know much about her. All he knew was that she was Sequence #2 of the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

It was only after he represented the Radiance Federation in the fight against the Freedom Federation envoy group that he was officially acquainted with her in the Radiance Sacred Hall.

Lin Yuan’s impression of Xia Qing was that she was sincere and friendly.

Liu Jie later told Lin Yuan about Xia Qing.

Liu Jie had said with certainty that when it came to power, she was above Zong Ze, Gu Lang, and An He.

It was practically a guarantee that she would become a Radiance Envoy a year later.

When Liu Jie had competed against Xia Qing, there was no way he could beat her even if he used all of the insect-species carcinoma feys under his control unless he used the Emperor Core of All Insects.

However, the price of using the Emperor Core of All Insects was too high. Liu Jie might not be able to rein it in properly, and it also had a large impact on the Insect Queen.

Thus, unless he had absolutely no choice, Liu Jie would not use the Emperor Core of All Insects’ power when he was competing in friendly matches.

Moreover, Liu Jie was not the only one with a sacred source lifeform. Xia Qing had one as well but had never shown it before.

Hence, in spite of the fact that Liu Jie now had two insect-species carcinoma fey fairies and the Halberd Corner Sky-Defying Rhinoceros Beetle, he could not be confident that he would be able to defeat Xia Qing.

Lin Yuan was shocked when he heard about Xia Qing’s power.

He knew that the extent of his power was due to Morbius.

However, Xia Qing was not a transmigrator, and there was no way she would have access to such external factors.

Although he had only been increasing his power for a year while Xia Qing had been doing so for over ten years, her talent alone was shocking enough.

Besides Xia Qing’s power, Liu Jie had also told Lin Yuan about Xia Qing’s background.

She was almost no different from a princess and had been born with a golden spoon in her mouth. Yet, she had never received the princess treatment.

Her parents had died protecting the Radiance Federation while she was young.

She already had memories at that time and experienced the full extent of the grief of losing her parents.

After that, the only family that Xia Qing had left was the Spacetime Elder.

But now, she was about to experience the pain of the Spacetime Elder leaving this world as well.

Xia Qing was indeed pitiful, as Cicada Song said.

The Moon Empress was silent for a long time and led Lin Yuan in.

The Spacetime Elder’s bedroom had minimum decoration. There was only a wooden table and chair, as well as a few wooden shelves outside of the bedroom. Inside the bedroom was a large wooden screen.

When the Moon Empress led Lin Yuan past the screen, the shriek of a young girl was heard.

“Grandfather, it’s not that I can’t take it! From the day that I learned that my parents gave their lives for the sake of the Radiance Federation, I knew that you would be leaving me one day too! I’m also prepared to sacrifice my life for the Radiance Federation.

“But Grandfather, this is all happening too quickly! Allow me to be selfish and say that I hope I can die before you. This way, I won’t have to bear the pain of you leaving me!”

The young girl’s shriek also had restrained sobbing, which indicated deep sorrow.

The young girl’s shriek was followed by an elderly and loving sigh.

“Little Qing, how can I continue living if you die before me? It’s only natural that the young see the old off. True sorrow comes from when the opposite happens.”

While she was talking, the source of the elderly voice seemed to think of something as he let out another sorrowful sigh.

The Moon Empress’ chest tightened when she heard this sigh. She knew that he always missed his son and daughter-in-law but never revealed his true feelings.

This was the first time that she was seeing him reveal his vulnerability.

Lin Yuan’s chest tightened when he heard Xia Qing’s shriek.

Luckily, he had the Lifespan Mouse and could effectively prevent this tragedy from happening.

When the Moon Empress pulled Lin Yuan across the screen, in actuality, from the moment the Moon Empress and Lin Yuan rode the Freezing Moon Pagoda Carriage to the imperial court, the Spacetime Elder knew that they were coming.

The moment that the pair crossed the screen, the Spacetime Elder smiled kindly and said warmly to them, “Come sit by the bed! Little Qing, don’t cry. Move the bench over so Xiyue and Little Yuan can sit!”
