"Why?" Pei Yan was already ntally prepared for Elder Lin's previous answer, but was sowhat surprised by his ddling in the internal decisions of the investigation departnt.
"It's a decision I made after weighing the pros and cons with that person. Rest assured, your world is my world, I won't endanger you, and you will gain considerable benefits."
Listening to Elder Lin's proposal, Pei Yan nodded and then asked, "So what do we do next?"
"Today, I need to split into many pieces of the Origin Fragnt, requiring your body for at least one night. As for you, just proceed according to your plan, step by step. However, I advise you not to rush to break through your own realm for a long ti."
"Alright!"
Seeing Pei Yan agree so readily, Elder Lin was a bit surprised and asked, "You don't ask why? Or have you sensed sothing yourself?"
"Sort of. Although I can't wait to reach the ninth level and dominate the world, I've also noticed that my powers have been increasing too quickly, and I'm unable to fully control many abilities in battle. It feels like this might cause problems for later."
Elder Lin smiled with satisfaction and said, "At least you have self-awareness. To reach the sixth level within two years is unprecedented. Although in our world, the advancent of abilities doesn't stress ntal states, several forced breakthroughs have indeed hard your foundation, even if you haven't noticed any abnormalities yet."
Hearing this, Pei Yan recalled the excruciating pain during his breakthroughs and nodded helplessly in agreent. Elder Lin continued, "So from now on, focus not only on accumulating power for a solid breakthrough, but also take the opportunity to nurture your body to repair potential damages. The leap from the sixth to the seventh level is a crucial threshold; once you step into the seventh level, you truly enter the ranks of masters. If your abilities experience a fortuitous mont, they may resonate with nature itself—you might have experienced this."
Recalling the battle with Lelajin, Pei Yan nodded again in agreent as Elder Lin concluded, "So for your future developnt, focus on cultivating your mind and abilities, aim for a spectacular breakthrough to the seventh level. Once you reach the seventh level, I can rely on your power to restore myself, at which point I can help the top personnel of the investigation departnt undergo Origin transformation to strengthen overall capability for the coming battles."
"Got it!"
That night, after finishing his conversation with Elder Lin, Pei Yan fell asleep, and when he regained consciousness, it was already the morning of the next day. Seeing the sunlight filtering in through the curtain, Pei Yan propped himself up, moved his sore shoulders, and grabbed the two wooden boxes beside the nightstand, opening one to glance briefly at the nine Origin Fragnts inside. It seed Elder Lin had been busy last night, explaining why his body felt so weak.
After placing the wooden boxes securely, Pei Yan got up and opened the door, only to be startled by soone standing there. As soon as the person saw Pei Yan co out, they politely bowed deeply and said, "Mr. Shitang, oh! No, I should call you Mr. Pei Yan, I've been ordered to wait here for quite so ti."
Pei Yan, surprised by Samikina's respectful attitude, said, "Oh, she already told you my na. It's better this way; I'm not very comfortable using that false na. About yesterday's mishap with your Fragnt, I didn't really an to reveal it."
Samikina chuckled bitterly without any bla, "You overthink, sir. Sooner or later, the Demon God would have known about it. Alas, it's my brother's fault, wanting too much to overshadow the new aristocracy and forgetting what truly threatens our race."
"Old sir, there's no need for such courtesy between us. I'm just not used to it. My words yesterday didn't cause you any trouble, did they?"
"Not at all, sir. You are now honored as a Prince; not performing grand ceremonies in your presence is already being disrespectful. As for yesterday's issue, thanks to your protection and the accomplishnts of our cooperation with you, the Demon God has forgiven our transgressions." Samikina looked up with hopeful eyes and continued, "May I ask, regarding your encounter with Lord Xila yesterday...?"
"Oh! You an this!" Pei Yan finally understood why he was blocking the door, imdiately pulling out one of the wooden boxes from his pocket to hand over to the old man, "Everything you need is inside, not one missing."
"Thank you, sir!"
Samikina received the box with joy and gratitude and turned to leave, only to be called back by Pei Yan, "Mr. Samikina, may I trouble you with one more thing?"
"Please feel free to command , I will do my utmost to accomplish it!" Samikina turned and responded respectfully.
"After freeing the four newly elevated Demon Race mbers outside, will they trust and heed the orders of your envoy Xila and follow my command?"
Samikina paused and contemplated before replying, "From our conversation yesterday, I believe you should understand the unique status of Xila within our race. As long as they are not determined to rebel against the Demon Race, they would understand her orders are equivalent to the Demon God's will, hence unlikely to defy them. However, whether they will privately disregard your commands remains uncertain."
Samikina stepped forward and added, "Your Highness, do you wish to recruit subordinates? I can mobilize several powerful mbers from my direct line for you."
"No need, I'm rely conducting an experint. You may release them and then have them report here after following the envoy's orders."
"Understood, sir."
Watching Samikina's figure disappear at the manor's gate, Pei Jin, who had been waiting at Pei Yan's door the whole ti, handed her brother a wooden box, teasing, "You've beco quite prestigious now. This old man, upon hearing you were in seclusion, dared not disturb you, standing all night at the door. This item is the Origin Fragnt he agreed upon with you, delivering even more than promised. Elder Lin had him hand it to you through ."
Pei Yan took a glance inside the box, closed it, and said, "Sis, could you call Old Ye to my room? Oh, and also Su Xiang, but have him wait outside first."
Five minutes later, inside Pei Yan's room, facing the two people in front of him, Pei Yan took out five high-quality Demon Race Origin Law Fragnts that Xila had given him the previous day, handing one to his sister and said, "Sis, I've absorbed many pieces and gained experience. Plus, with the help of my right eye, you won't face any danger absorbing this now. I'll guide you through the process."
"Okay!" Pei Jin accepted the fragnt without hesitation.
Pei Yan then passed another fragnt to Ye Ruozai, "For now, keep this Fragnt with you. It's not the right ti to absorb it. When I get a chance in the future, I'll find you an Origin Seed for better absorption."
"Is it necessary?" Ye Ruozai accepted the Fragnt with hesitation.
Pei Yan gave Ye Ruozai a aningful look and said, "If you want to accomplish what you intended that day, it is necessary."
"Understood, I got it!"
