Chapter 233 Gathering! The Sole Exotic Treasure (Added 28, 29)
"Li Yuan?" Lin Quan was stunned for a second.
Immediately after, he figured out who it was from the way the other party addressed him.
Although he had been far away in Feixing and hadn't followed the global college Martial Path competition's virtual battles,
Li Yuan had become extremely popular in the past month, even on the virtual networks of Feixing, gaining a certain fame.
Naturally, Lin Quan was also aware of this.
"Hello, Li Yuan," Lin Quan immediately changed the way he addressed him, remaining extremely polite.
As a 29th level Prime Warrior, and with both parents being Flying Heaven Warriors, his perspective was not like that of an ordinary Prime Warrior.
Just from Li Yuan's performance in the virtual battles and the 'Flying Heaven Warrior privileges' displayed on the phone, he had already deduced... Li Yuan, his younger sister's high school classmate, had suddenly obtained an astonishing influence.
At least, his status in the Starfire Martial Hall was now extremely high.
"Big brother Lin," Li Yuan got straight to the point, "My mentor just spoke to me about the 'Blazing Flame Family' matter, inviting me to join the battle in the World within Worlds. Are you aware of the outbreak in the World within Worlds?"
Li Yuan was extremely grateful in his heart towards Lin Quan.
At that time, had it not been for him daring to bring Heavenly Materials Treasures just in time, his uncle would have certainly died.
"The Blazing Flame Family?"
Lin Quan hesitated, then said, "I'm not a member of the Blazing Flame Family, but I do know about this matter. Li Yuan, what is it that you want to know?"
"About Lanyue," Li Yuan said directly, "After being eliminated from the Blue Star competition, she told me she was going to Feixing's Fierce Feather Star Realm to seek her fortune. But I've just learned that your mother is a Flying Heaven Warrior from the Blazing Flame Family... I want to confirm if Lanyue has gone to the World within Worlds."
Lin Quan was shocked inside.
Firstly, from Li Yuan's way of referring to Lin Lanyue, he could tell that their relationship was at least that of very close friends.
Secondly, how had Li Yuan come to know so much information in such a short time?
Li Yuan waited quietly for the other party's response.
After a silence of three seconds, Lin Quan stated in a low voice, "Yes, my little sister is trapped in the World within Worlds, and we've lost contact with her. But according to my parents... she is, with a high probability, still alive."
"One of the demands the Blazing Flame Family has made in revealing the World within Worlds to the alliance is that they must rescue my sister... She is extremely important to the entire Blazing Flame Family," Lin Quan explained in detail.
Logically, there were some things he shouldn't say.
But after a moment of reflection in his mind, he chose to reveal them to Li Yuan.
"Alright, I understand," Li Yuan said.
"Li Yuan," Lin Quan finally couldn't help saying, "are you thinking about going to the World within Worlds? You're just a freshman, and your Physical Quality might not be high enough, so don't be impulsive."
"This World within Worlds, where the Blazing Flame Family has long arranged for several junior Prime Warriors to rotate guarding duties, was still overwhelmed by raiders from the Immortal Ruins Civilization, it's extremely dangerous," Lin Quan solemnly said.
Lin Quan knew that Li Yuan was skilled, able to match even himself.
But under normal circumstances, while skills could be comprehended instantly, Physical Quality needed time to accumulate.
In Lin Quan's view, like Lin Lanyue whose Physical Quality as a freshman had already grown to level 15, it was thanks to her bloodline gifts plus a large amount of resources.
What about Li Yuan? How strong could his Physical Quality be if his skills were high but he lacked High Rank Cultivation Methods to assist him?
"I won't be impulsive," Li Yuan said in a low voice.
"That's good," Lin Quan let out a sigh of relief.
"I'll make thorough preparations before entering," Li Yuan stated seriously.
Lin Quan was taken aback.
"Alright, big brother Lin, I'm going to start preparing now," Li Yuan said, then promptly hung up the communication.
Leaving a bewildered Lin Quan behind.
He wondered if he hadn't made himself clear just now.
...
In the Martial Arts Room of the villa at Kunlun Martial University.
"Lanyue, really went to the World within Worlds? And lost contact?" Li Yuan's heart tightened; he was far from as composed as he had appeared.
Until confirmation from Lin Quan, Li Yuan had always hoped she would not be there.
Contrary to his wishes.
The only saving grace was that Lin Quan's words still gave Li Yuan a last glimmer of hope—she was alive.
"From what Lin Quan said, does Lanyue hold an extremely high position in the Blazing Flame Family? Seems to be much higher than her two older brothers, and one of the conditions that the Blazing Flame Family has asked of the alliance is to save her?
Could it be that she's able to cultivate the 'Nirvana Divine Scripture'?" Li Yuan pondered silently, "Even so, her importance to the Blazing Flame Family shouldn't be this high, right?"
According to what Dean Hai had implied, if one could cultivate the 'Nirvana Divine Scripture', the hopes of becoming a Flying Heaven Warrior were greatly increased.
A Flying Heaven Warrior is indeed very important.
But is it that important to a high-grade Spiritual Nature family that already has dozens of Flying Heaven Warriors?
"It doesn't matter now."
"The more the alliance's upper echelons value her, the greater the hope of rescuing Lanyue," Li Yuan muttered to himself.
The moment he knew Lin Lanyue was trapped in the World within Worlds, Li Yuan had made his decision—to take on the challenge!
Scenes with Lin Lanyue began to drift through Li Yuan's mind.
Their every encounter in the elite building of high school, exchanging martial skills; the invitation event at Jiangbei Martial University; Lin Lanyue rushing back from the Lantis Continent especially when Xu Bo, their teacher, passed away... and her many times of assistance.
Especially the time when she saved his uncle, an act Li Yuan would forever remember.
The two of them, at this moment, could only be said to be friends with a very good relationship.
But in a nebulous way, they both had some fond feelings for each other, only both consciously avoided many things... both were dedicated to Martial Path and didn't wish to be distracted in their prime cultivation years.
"However, when she saved my uncle and helped me many times... I have never been able to repay her," Li Yuan's eyes carried a hint of killing intent: "This time, if I have the ability to do something, I cannot shrink back."
"The Immortal Ruins Civilization? The Gu Yue Divine Kingdom? No matter how many Prime Warriors there are, I'll kill all those who dare to block my way." Stay tuned to empire
Li Yuan was always a person of passion.
Just like before, when senior Liu Jing sacrificed himself to save him, seeing a sliver of hope for victory, Li Yuan risked his life to turn back and save him.
