Divine Beast Creator

The results of Veronia’s test were finally obtained in the afternoon. Despite many uncertainties, their comprehensive assessment concluded that the Qi Realm Stance did not cause any real mental impact.

Of course, since they didn’t know how Qi Realm pollution would manifest on the Qi Realm Timeline, coupled with Veronia’s special nature, this could only serve as a reference and cannot be used for judgment.

"Leave this to you then, me... I’m planning to relax a bit first~"

Stretching lazily, Feng Yuan said to Meng Binglan, to which she smiled and said

"Thanks to you being busy back and forth during this time, otherwise we might not have this tranquility now."

She will not forget what Feng Yuan has done, or rather, everyone in Maomu City is aware of Feng Yuan’s actions. Whether it’s the City of Death hanging in the sky now or his attack on The Imperial Timeline, fundamentally it’s a deterrent to prevent The Imperial Timeline from targeting Maomu City for attacks.

No one would think it’s because Feng Yuan provoked them that Maomu City was repeatedly attacked. This kind of thinking is proven to be wishful thinking by examples like Baiman City. When The Imperial Timeline decides to strike, they won’t care about such things. It’s truly foolish to place safety in the fantasy that the enemy won’t attack voluntarily.

Although there have been several consecutive attacks from The Imperial Timeline, the most recent is considered to have left a deterrent effect on them. At least, when The Imperial Timeline attacks Maomu City again, they are merely thinking about containing them. This already proves that Feng Yuan’s actions have been effective.

After being busy with so much, Feng Yuan wanting to rest for a while now seems very normal to Meng Binglan. If it were her, she might not have the ability to handle all these messy matters.

"By the way, there’s a ritual being held on Changfu Road. If you’re interested, you can go take a look, though the atmosphere there might..."

Remembering something, Meng Binglan said, scratching his head, Feng Yuan asked

"A ritual? What are they praying for this time? Such activities won’t impact the Temple, right?"

After all, compared to those vague prayers, the Temple needs to rely on the Power of Prayer to maintain itself, especially in times like now, keeping the Temple operating is a top priority. By contrast, folk beliefs are something that can be temporarily set aside.

"It won’t. The Power of Prayer is literally just that, not about sincerity or not, at most it’s the difference in numbers generated. With our city’s population, there is nearly half the surplus that can be used to handle emergencies."

Shaking her head, Meng Binglan said, although the Temple needs the Power of Prayer for operations, this thing doesn’t adhere to science nor fantasy, completely ignoring the conventional energy balance limits. The power consumed daily is fixed and not affected by the Temple’s usage.

This means the active use of the Temple’s various abilities doesn’t consume additional Power of Prayer, just like unlimited monthly plans, using it as however they want.

Of course, had it not been like this, they wouldn’t dare to let the ritual proceed without at least investigating and assessing whether it affects the generation of Power of Prayer.

"The surplus is really large, so in this case, I’ll go back and ask if they are interested. Going to such places alone would be weird."

Laughing, Feng Yuan said, after all, he can’t be considered a local, so appearing there alone would make him seem out of place.

Considering nobody close to him fell into danger.

"If it wasn’t for me being busy with research, I could accompany you there. Although the atmosphere is special, the activities after the ritual are quite good."

With seriousness, Meng Binglan said to Feng Yuan, that in this world, rituals not only commemorate the deceased but also have the intent to put aside sorrows and face the future with a smile. If not for this, Maomu City wouldn’t have permitted rituals to be held at this time.

"A ritual? I’m not really interested. If you are going, I’ll consider going elsewhere."

Veronia floated over and said to Feng Yuan, having heard the conversation between Feng Yuan and Meng Binglan, it was not interested in rituals. Whether they are interesting is secondary; it simply doesn’t like such places.

"Uh, then I’ll find Qi Chen and see if Big Cat and the others would join."

Feng Yuan didn’t force Veronia’s idea, thinking of something, he looked at Tamur and asked

"And you?"

"Whatever."

Gently swaying its body, Tamur said calmly; it really didn’t care. Farewells were not something it experienced much, nor felt much towards. Even regarding rituals, in its view, probably would not stir any negative feelings.

"Then let’s go together. Although there are many people, it may not be a very lively event."

Scratching his head, Feng Yuan smilingly said, Tamur did not mind this, or rather, during the time spent following Feng Yuan, there’s rarely anything Tamur cared about.

"Ritual? I remember the rituals we have here should be only..."

Receiving Feng Yuan’s call, after agreeing to go together, Qi Chen suddenly found it odd, muttering to himself, Qi Xiaoshuang glanced at Qi Chen and said irritably

"Brother, did you forget? Mom and dad are participating in the lantern ritual at Liuyun Temple today? The ritual happening now is only there."

"Liuyun Temple? I remember this place... Why would he be interested in a ritual?"

Pausing for a moment, Qi Chen realized he hadn’t guessed wrong. However, precisely because of this, he felt strange. Feng Yuan wasn’t a local; such a ritual commemorating war victims should not be of interest to him.

Moreover, due to the solemn nature of such rituals, they don’t usually include any entertainment content.

"Maybe he wants to take a tour within the city? After all, there aren’t many ongoing activities within the city right now. Those events at Data Square might not interest him much."

Qi Xiaoshuang guessed Feng Yuan’s intention, or rather, his thoughts were easy to discern.

"If it’s because of this, then perhaps..."

"Perhaps what, there’s no place to have fun now."

Rolling her eyes, Qi Xiaoshuang said irritably, it’s still wartime, and who would dare hold entertainment activities now; apart from city-arranged leisure activities, other places, including tourist spots, are already shut down.

They had to shut down; not to mention getting criticized for operating during such times, even staff wouldn’t dare to go to work. Because apart from some city areas, other tourist spots are outside the city boundaries.

Currently, it’s much more dangerous outside the city than usual. Even with Divine protection, it only restricts the enemy from appearing directly in Maomu City. If they walked over, the Temple would be ineffective.

Despite patrol squads, areas too far from the city remain unattended. Right now, no one would suggest sending people to guard those distant tourist spots.

This results in fewer leisure spots in the city. Other Beastmasters might not feel much as they aren’t idling like Feng Yuan, who has all the time in the world. The current leisure activities suit them just fine, but Feng Yuan, who has completely free time, finds those activities rather uninteresting.

"Then what can we do?"

Qi Chen looked at Qi Xiaoshuang with a troubled face; truly, he couldn’t think of a solution.

"There’s nothing much to do. Brother, you and Yanlan sister often go to play with him, maybe that’s all you can do. You can’t exactly drag him to play games, right? Those things aren’t doing too well at the moment."

Slightly shaking her head, Qi Xiaoshuang said, had Feng Yuan been interested in online games, it would have been manageable. Many of her classmates enjoy playing them, letting them play along, even Big Cat could take Feng Yuan through those online games effortlessly.

But Feng Yuan clearly wasn’t interested in those, so this idea was doomed to fail.

Touring mountains and rivers is even less possible, not due to Feng Yuan’s abilities, but because he likely wouldn’t leave Maomu City at this time.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have bothered with those tasks before; of course, this also involves those folks provoking him, generally speaking, Qi Xiaoshuang believed Feng Yuan would consider Maomu City’s safety concerns and opt not to leave unless necessary.

"If you’re really caught up on this, brother, why not directly ask him? I think he wouldn’t mind you asking about this."

Thinking it over, Qi Xiaoshuang passed the problem over to Qi Chen.
