Fey Evolution Merchant (Web Novel)
chapter-2927

After inspecting the resources of this spatial equipment, Emerald Lady felt that the spatial equipment in her hand had become more valuable. With just the resources in the spatial equipment, she could replenish all her consumption. The fact that the people in front of her were willing to give her this spatial equipment made them appear as kind existences in Emerald Lady's eyes.

Emerald Lady needed these resources very much, but she didn't immediately put them away and use them. She knew very well that the resources surely came with a price. Using these resources meant she needed to repay the group of people before her. Emerald Lady didn't know what this group of people wanted her to do.

"You have provided me with so many Creator resources. What do you need me to do? My abilities may be unique, but clearly, they cannot create this much value. As a member of the Faerie Institution, I will never betray the Faerie Institution and let you use me to control more faeries!"

Emerald Lady looked at Lin Yuan warily. The group of people before her had brought her there from the encirclement of the major factions using a method that she had never heard of before. If it was for her sake alone, the price was really too high. Previously, she had heard that some faeries were controlled by evil factions. They would use the controlled faeries to attack more faeries. The Emerald Lady would rather give up her life than do such a thing.

Lin Yuan could see the wariness in Emerald Lady's eyes. It was normal for her to be wary of him. If the Emerald Lady did not guard against him at this moment, wouldn't she be a fool?!

Lin Yuan did not explain much to Emerald Lady. Instead, he released Begin Lady and Celestial Sight from the Spirit Lock spatial zone. Certainly, some things were easier for fellow faeries like Begin Lady and Celestial Sight to convey to Emerald Lady. As a faerie, Emerald Lady would also be more likely to listen to the Begin Lady and the Celestial Sight.

In terms of bloodline, the Begin Lady's bloodline was higher than Emerald Lady's. Fairies were very obedient to bloodlines. Using Celestial Sight as an example, it was extremely obedient to Begin Lady.

Emerald Lady hadn't expected that two faeries would suddenly appear by Lin Yuan's side, and one of them had a bloodline that surpassed her own.

Before Lin Yuan had summoned Begin Lady and Celestial Sight, he had already communicated with them.

Begin Lady's heart ached for Emerald Lady. Upon sensing Emerald Lady's state, she used her root power to nourish her. As an underground river that had nurtured countless lifeforms, Begin Lady's root power was extremely healing. While there was a fundamental difference between this healing ability and Emerald Lady's healing ability, they could complement each other to some extent.

As Begin Lady helped the Emerald Lady nourish her damaged roots, she conversed with her. Celestial Sight chimed in from time to time.

It did not take long for Lin Yuan to notice that Emerald Lady's hostility toward him had decreased significantly. Despite maintaining a certain level of vigilance, Emerald Lady has begun to warm up to Begin Lady, who was willing to expend root power to help her.

"I'm Begin Lady, and you're Emerald Lady. Our names are fated. Sister Emerald Lady, my path to becoming a faerie is much more difficult than yours. If it weren't for Young Master's help, I would have died in Heaven's Trial. Celestial Sight was also supported by Young Master like me.

"Young Master sensed your aura and brought you here, but he won't force you to do anything you don't want to do. Now is not the time to talk about anything else. Use these resources to reach your optimal state as soon as possible so that you can welcome the Heaven's Trial. We'll talk about the rest after your bloodline evolves!"

After she finished speaking, Begin Lady busied herself helping Emerald Lady and placed the resources in the spatial equipment in front of her. Begin Lady was exceptionally earnest in persuading Emerald Lady about the matter. Given her understanding of Lin Yuan, if Emerald Lady remained stubborn and refused to express any intention of surrendering to Lin Yuan, he would not keep helping her. No one would help a person who was wary of them for no reason, especially if they had to invest such a huge amount of resources. Of course, Lin Yuan wouldn't continue to help Emerald Lady indefinitely. However, if Emerald Lady clearly refused to join, he probably wouldn't bother her either.

Based on Emerald Lady's attitude toward Lin Yuan's resources, Begin Lady could come to a conclusion. The resources that Emerald Lady had previously used in the Faerie Institution could not compare to the resources that Lin Yuan had provided. Wouldn't joining Lin Yuan be an opportunity for Emerald Lady?

Begin Lady and Celestial Sight had said everything that needed to be said, so she would let Emerald Lady think for herself.

After hearing the Begin Lady and Celestial Sight's persuasion, Emerald Lady's attitude toward Lin Yuan had subtly changed. Being acknowledged by two faeries like this, the group before her surely couldn't be bad people. Since the other party was willing to provide her with such abundant resources, it would indeed be extremely beneficial for her to join this faction.

As highly intelligent lifeforms, faeries were capable of contemplating their future. Through the resources that Lin Yuan had provided for her, Emerald Lady had confirmed that her growth here would be much faster than in the Faerie Institution.

As the Emerald Lady absorbed the resources provided by Lin Yuan to stabilize her damaged bloodline, she spoke to Lin Yuan with an extremely serious expression, "Before discussing whether or not I want to join you, I would like to tell you about my abilities. I'm transformed from a hundred million years of green mountains. Originally, ordinary natural landscapes like green mountains don't have the chance to transform into faeries. When I was still a natural landscape, I encountered many great opportunities.

"It was these great opportunities that allowed me to grow. I transform into a faerie much slower than other natural landscapes, yet my talent is by no means lacking. However, in terms of abilities, mine are rather limited. I can only enhance the growth and evolution speed of plant-type lifeforms.

"This makes it impossible for me to contribute much to the Faerie Institution with my abilities. I can say that I'm not good at fighting at all. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been controlled by those evil people from the start."

Emerald Lady's description of her capabilities was very objective, she didn't exaggerate her capabilities.

When she first became a faerie, Emerald Lady was treated as a genius in the Faerie Institution. Later, because of her ability, she was moved out of the core circle. These two matters had a huge impact on Emerald Lady, to the extent that she began to feel inferior.

What Emerald Lady was unaware of was that Lin Yuan already knew about her ability. The reason Lin Yuan valued her so much was precisely because of her ability. The most precious thing in the faith country was food, and the faith country had developed too quickly. Even if they kept nurturing Soldier Ration Radishes, their production was too low, and they could not keep up with the development of the faith country. Soldier Ration Radishes also could not be nurtured blindly as they had their own lifespan.

If the Emerald Lady was willing to submit to Lin Yuan, he would bring her to Sky City and let her nurture the Soldier Ration Radishes. In that case, the faith country would no longer need to worry about food and clothing, and the speed of development of the faith country would not need to decrease. Emerald Lady's ability solved a fundamental problem that Lin Yuan urgently needed to solve. This made her ability extremely important to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan said directly, "You don't have to be so pessimistic about your ability. To me, your ability is extremely important. If you join me, you will feel a sense of accomplishment because of your ability in the future. I will also be responsible for the subsequent improvement of your bloodline and strength. I can't give you much time to think here. I hope you can immediately respond to me after passing the Heaven's Trial. If you're unwilling to join me, I won't force you. I'll let you leave and return to the Faerie Institution."

Begin Lady knew Lin Yuan well, and he would not be a good person for no reason. At most, he would help Emerald Lady survive the danger like he was doing now. He would not invest more resources in her. The existence of a faerie could benefit an area. Lin Yuan would treat his investment in Emerald Lady's resources as a good deed.

Even though Lin Yuan had become increasingly decisive along his journey, his original intention had remained unchanged.

Emerald Lady nodded at Lin Yuan and began to absorb the resources silently. Although Emerald Lady did not give Lin Yuan an answer, she had already made up her mind. She had already decided to join Lin Yuan. On one hand, it was indeed because of the resources that Lin Yuan had invested in her. Emerald Lady needed these resources to grow quickly. On the other hand, Emerald Lady also wanted to experience the sense of accomplishment her bloodline could bring her.

Lin Yuan let Emerald Lady recover her roots in advance so that her body could better withstand the benefits that would be bestowed at the end of the Heaven's Trial. He did not need Emerald Lady to use her strong body to deal with this Heaven's Trial.

Back then, even White Speak was able to help Begin Lady resist the Heaven's Trial. Now, with Spring and Winter, resisting the Heaven's Trial was naturally nothing difficult.

Spring and Winter sensed the aura of a faerie approaching them from afar, so they suggested to Lin Yuan, "Young Master, the people from the Faerie Institution are rushing towards us. I'm sure that the people from the Faerie Institution won't discover any traces of Emerald Lady. But if they keep rushing here, they'll meet sooner or later. If we don't want to have a conflict with the Faerie Institution, we have to leave this place!"

Winter did not send a voice transmission to Lin Yuan, allowing Emerald Lady to hear him clearly. He was forcing Emerald Lady to make a choice.

Lin Yuan nodded. If the people from the Faerie Institution were rushing toward him, Lin Yuan would indeed need to bring Emerald Lady with him.

Lin Yuan said helplessly to Emerald Lady, "Previously, I wanted to wait until you finished the Heaven's Trial. Now, it seems that you have to make a decision in advance. If you decide to join me, we will take you out of here. If you want to return to the Faerie Institution, you can just wait here for the people from the Faerie Institution to arrive. After we leave, your aura will be able to spread out!"

Emerald Lady had a feeling that Lin Yuan was testing her and was joking. Lin Yuan had just given him so many resources. Would he really let her go?

Since Emerald Lady had already made her decision, she wasn't prepared to change her mind. "I'm willing to leave with you and join you in the future. I hope you can be more tolerant in the future."

Emerald Lady had feelings for the Faerie Institution, but as a member of the Faerie Institution, she felt like she was being controlled. She could sense Sand Abyss's admiration for her, but she hated Sand Abyss's control over her. Leaving the Faerie Institution was equivalent to leaving the Sand Abyss's control. If she was stronger than Sand Abyss, even with her good temper, she would want to beat him up.

Having received Emerald Lady's accurate answer, Spring and Winter led Lin Yuan and the rest to move, including Emerald Lady. Before leaving, Winter had deliberately cleaned up Emerald Lady's remaining aura. Even if the Faerie Institution stood on the land where Emerald Lady was, they wouldn't be able to sense her aura.

For a considerable period, Lin Yuan's Sky City would hide in the North of the Lonely River to develop. The Faerie Institution's influence was not powerful in the East Universe to investigate the North of the Lonely River. The factions present were enough for the Faerie Institution to vent their frustrations upon.

After arriving at the new area, Emerald Lady activated the bloodline in her body and the Heaven's Trial descended.

Spring helped Emerald Lady resist the Heaven's Trial, allowing her to steadily evolve.

The Emerald Lady had evolved from a lower faerie to an intermediate faerie. Her strength hadn't increased too much, but her bloodline had increased several times over. The increase in her bloodline also increased Emerald Lady's ability to promote the growth and evolution of plant-type lifeforms.

Subduing the Emerald Lady was a huge gain for both Lin Yuan and Sky City. If not for such a huge harvest, Lin Yuan would not have slowed down his pace of returning to Sky City.

Despite extensive searching, Sand Abyss and Deep Mountain still couldn't find any trace of Emerald Lady. Sand Abyss and Deep Mountain didn't execute all the people who targeted Emerald Lady but left a portion for interrogation.

After a careful interrogation, these people who were interrogated all had the same confession. Emerald Lady was taken away by a snowflake.

In the entire Sky Beyond the Clouds, there were only a few species with powerful ice-type and snow-type abilities. The Snow-Covered Foxes, the Frost Ferrets, and the Cold Jade Vipers all possessed such abilities. However, the auras of these species were very obvious. If there were really members of these species, it was impossible for him not to detect them.

Sand Abyss and Deep Mountain were in an extremely bad mood, especially since Sand Abyss was on the verge of collapse the more they searched. However, no matter what, it was better for Emerald Lady to be taken away by a snowflake than to be killed.
