Lin Wan couldn't help but fall silent. Although she was reluctant to admit it, she had to acknowledge that Lin Shen's blade technique was indeed quite sothing.
Although it had deviated significantly from her Universe Inverting Right and Wrong Hand, the effectiveness of Lin Shen's adaptation was not inferior, and in so aspects, it even surpassed it.
"This man is truly a genius, to be able to take the incomplete and radically altered Universe Inverting Right and Wrong Hand and cultivate it to such an extent with his unique innovations. It seems that the disappearance of the Death Powder's effects on is very likely related to him." As Lin Wan watched Lin Shen practice his blade technique in the sky, she silently contemplated how to gain his trust further in order to uncover the secret of the Death Powder's disappearance from his being.
Lin Wan knew that under normal circumstances, gaining Lin Shen's trust might require a lengthy period of testing.
Though she now presented herself in a human guise, it was apparent that Lin Shen didn't place an unwavering trust in his own people.
Apart from his own small group, Lin Shen hadn't made extensive use of humans within the Celestial Master Institute, making Lin Wan's approach to getting close to him in her human identity sowhat awkward.
She had originally thought that approaching Lin Shen as a compatriot would make it easier to gain his trust, but this turned out not to be the case—it was even harder to win his trust.
"It seems that I must take drastic asures." Lin Wan didn't have the patience to wait for Lin Shen to trust her and had to think of another strategy.
As Lin Shen continued to refine his Bloodlife Blade Skill, his defense beca increasingly fierce, the world had probably never seen such an aggressive defensive blade technique except for his own.
Feeling that there were no major issues with his blade technique anymore, Lin Shen finally descended to the ground and called Tian Buluo to leave Blade Wind Star with him.
Prior to mastering the technique, Lin Shen had been very diligent, but now that he had, he had lost interest and no longer wished to practice.
Tian Buluo didn't mind. After all, he had co just to accompany Lin Shen. Since Lin Shen wanted to go back, Tian Buluo saw no reason to stay and practice; he too would return to Celestial Star alongside Lin Shen.
Upon returning to Silent Residence, Lin Shen pondered that he must wait until Nirvana of the Death Powder was complete before he could safely venture into the underground space, so he decided to first visit Gourd Mountain to figure out what was really going on there.
If he could clarify the situation with Gourd Mountain, the next ti the strange visitor ca looking for him, he could simply return the chanical wristwatch to him.
While Lin Shen was considering when to set out for Gourd Mountain, Tian Congyun ca running over.
"Dean, the Heavenly Emperor has decreed that the Celestial Master Institute is responsible for the safety of Princess Yunxiang, escorting her to the Supre Clan," Tian Congyun said, handing over an official docunt to Lin Shen.
"Escort Princess Yunxiang to the Supre Clan?" Lin Shen was montarily taken aback. After reading the docunt, he learned that Princess Yunxiang was going to study and cultivate on the planet of the Supre Clan, which, in terms from the Human Mother Planet, was akin to studying abroad.
Their mission was to escort Princess Yunxiang safely to Supre Star and to wait until she was settled into the Supre Academy.
If it was any ordinary planet, no escort would be needed since one could simply use the teleporter.
However, there is no teleporter on Supre Star, so if one wants to go there, the only options are to fly from a nearby planet that does have a teleporter or to take a spacecraft.
If they were to take a spacecraft, the journey would likely take a bit more than two days, and this is the ti during which Lin Shen and his team must be vigilant, to make sure no one takes advantage of them.
In fact, there aren't many who dare to make a move against Princess Yunxiang. If soone were to harm Princess Yunxiang there, it would be tantamount to offending both the Celestial Race and the Supre Clan at the sa ti—who in the universe has the courage to offend these two powerful families simultaneously?
So, this assignnt is actually a sinecure, just accompanying Princess Yunxiang on a stroll, not much different from a tourist trip.
The Heavenly Emperor had finally assigned a task, which was to escort his daughter, Lin Shen naturally could not slack but also could not draw attention. It would be best to deliver Princess Yunxiang to the Supre Academy without anyone being the wiser. Stay updated with My Virtual Library Empire
Therefore, Lin Shen did not attend the eting at the Celestial Master Institute but instead discussed with Ouyang Yudu and Wei Wufu, asking them to accompany him to Supre Star.
To prevent leaks, Lin Shen did not even make use of the Nirvana Beings recruited by Ouyang Yudu.
If it were a debt collection, Lin Shen would definitely take them along. But for the task of escorting a prince, the fewer people who knew, the better; only those who could be absolutely trusted could participate.
Ouyang Yudu is the head of the Special Service Departnt, and this is precisely his responsibility; of course, he cannot shirk it.
Wei Wufu also had no objections, so Lin Shen prepared to secretly set off with them to escort Princess Yunxiang.
Before going to fetch Princess Yunxiang, Lin Shen sent a ssage to Tian Buluo, inquiring about her to avoid any potential taboos that he might not be aware of, which could lead to conflicts with the princess.
Upon hearing Lin Shen's question about Princess Yunxiang, Tian Buluo imdiately guessed what was happening and asked with so surprise, "Did the Heavenly Emperor ask you to escort Princess Yunxiang to the Supre Clan for studies?"
"Is this matter already common knowledge?" Lin Shen's expression turned sour as he had been extrely cautious; yet, the news had sohow leaked, making his previous actions seem clownish.
"It might be said that it's not a secret anymore," said Tian Buluo with a laugh: "Yunxiang is quite young and spoiled, and she has always been infatuated with outstanding figures like Di Esi, desiring to go to Supre Star for a learning journey. This is no secret on Sky Pinnacle Star. The mont you asked about her, I knew what was going on. Your responsibility this ti is quite heavy."
"What do you an? Is soone actually daring to kidnap Princess Yunxiang?" Lin Shen was taken aback, startled at the possibility.
"That's unlikely; if soone dares to abduct her on her way to a learning journey, that would be tantamount to opposing both our Celestial Race and the Supre Clan. I believe no one would want to do such a thing," Tian Buluo pondered before adding, "Princess Yunxiang is deeply obsessed with Di Esi, to an unescapable extent. The Heavenly Emperor was quite displeased and thus had always refused to let her go to the Supre Clan. His sudden agreent to let Yunxiang go to the Supre Clan, and specifically appointing you to escort her—you don't really think it's just a simple study journey, do you?"
"Does the Emperor an for to correct Princess Yunxiang's views?" Lin Shen finally understood the true intention of the Heavenly Emperor.
Tian Buluo laughed, "That seems to be the case. Your performance on the racial ranking list isn't inferior to that of Di Esi, so it seems the Emperor wants you to prove to Princess Yunxiang that Di Esi is not as perfect and invincible as she thinks, in the hopes that Princess Yunxiang will co to her senses and stop being infatuated with him. This task truly could not be entrusted to anyone else but you."
"You're giving too much credit. I'm no match for Di Esi," Lin Shen sighed, realizing the tasks assigned by the Heavenly Emperor are never as simple as they seem.
