Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess
Chapter 426: Commotion

Chapter 426: 426: Commotion

In an instant, the news about the new contracted spirit beasts of the scion of each sector, including the pavilion owner of Crimson Cloud Pavilion, plus two other disciples from the Heavenly Sword Sect, who got to sign with a spirit beast from the core region of the Fantasy Forest. The sects were actually shocked by the existence of the core region, which their disciples were talking about. Especially the part where the ruler of the core region wasn’t the white tiger king at first, but a sentient plant spirit, a blue lotus flower, which leans towards water elements. Moreover, there are two of these plant spirits who gain a human form under the contract with this young lady called Yue Xuexia.

Plant spirits, especially those who gain human form, are a natural treasure from the world. There are too many who desire it. It’s just that no one dares to make a move against her, especially those who had connections with the children who come to the fantasy forest with them.

At the Crimson Cloud Pavilion

Some older workers of the pavilion requested the presence of their young owner. Most of them are free slaves bought by the Lin Clan. The Lin Clan is a mid-sized sect that is said to have the greatest connection with the Crimson Cloud Sect in the Earthian City. Some were fully loyal to the young master, while the others were loyal to the Lin Clan. Thus, when the news about Yue Xuexia had reached them, those who were greedy either for their own sakes or for the sect all targeted Yue Xuexia, who was living alone.

Gathering for a meeting, the elders were waiting for the young owner to arrive. Those who were truly loyal to Lin Chiru had no reaction while waiting for their master; as for those elders whose masters are from the Lin Clan, they were impatient and even talked back behind the young owner of the Crimson Cloud Pavilion.

"Elder Shi, did you inform the young master about the meeting?"

"Elder Yu, if you cannot wait for the master to arrive, why don’t you pick him up from his room and send a complaint? If you can speak such words before the master."

"Hmph! A loser who chooses to serve a youngling. As expected from a slave!"

The elders who chose to serve Lin Chiru as their master all frowned. Though they were indeed used to being enslaved, the kindness of their master gave them their freedom and allowed them to leave after coming to this place, which is far away from the place where the territory of the Lin Clan resides.

"What can a loyal dog abandoned by his own master do?"

"Who the hell are you calling a dog?! We weren’t abandoned. We are here to do our job and watch over the young master! This is to prevent what happened in the second young master’s case!"

"Just say that you are a spy from the main family! You cannot even lift your head before the master; what kind of spy are you? The master has longed to know!"

"You!!!"

Before this elder could act out, he felt a presence behind him. The elders all look terrified as well. When he turns around. He saw a huge white tiger opening its mouth, about to bite him alive. The elder was frightened that his face turned pale and shouted, and just as he thought he would be dying at this moment, he heard his young master’s voice.

"Xiao Bai, come over," said Lin Chiru as he arrived with his long black hair flowing down his back, looking like he had just woken up.

Lin Chiru looked at the elders with a nonchalant, lazy gaze. He sat at the main seat with the white tiger sitting behind its master like a guardian protector.

"What are you guys looking at? Begin the meeting. It should be important, right? For you to wake up this master from his sleep," said the young owner of the Crimson Cloud Pavilion.

The elders were terrified by the sudden appearance of the huge white tiger. This is a Peak Innateness realm, White Tiger, and also the brother of the Beast King in the Fantasy Forest. The elders didn’t know why this spirit beast had chosen to sign with their young master (master). In fact, they didn’t know what the spirit beast saw in him.

Lin Chiru said, "What are you guys wasting my time for? Begin the meeting!"

"Yes!"

The elder started reporting about the store’s revenue for this month, and afterward, the topic of the meeting fell on the information about the sentient plants that gain human form. The one leading this conversation is none other than Elder Yu from before.

"The existence of sentient beings, especially plants, is considered a treasure by everyone. After all, some plants have medical uses or are poisonous. Once they gain intelligence, they can be considered a high-grade treasure. Young master, the sect has put this much importance on this thing," said Elder Yu.

Lin Chiru could somehow guess what Elder Yu was trying to say. Everyone knows that of those who returned from the Fantasy Forest, only two people had signed with sentient plant spirits. One of them is the scion of the Heavenly Medicine Sect, Di Lou, and the other is the granddaughter of the Starfield Sect’s Supreme Elder, Xia Lianyu. Between the two, it can be said that the young lady possessed a powerful background compared to Di Lou. However, at the same time, her backing itself was far away. That’s what Elder Yu is trying to say.

"The sect wishes to possess these sentient plant spirits. With two targets to choose from, we had to make a choice of which one to target. The Heavenly Medicine Sect might not be as powerful as the Starfield Sect, but they are near, and this is their territory. So, why don’t we target the sole one without her guards and steal her sentient plant spirits? What do you think of the young master? This is a good idea, right?" Elder Yu said.

Everyone looked at the young master, or the Crimson Cloud Pavilion’s owner, Lin Chiru, who unexpectedly looked uninterested, but his eyes looked cold as he stared at them.

"Oh, good idea. So who thought of this?" asked Lin Chiru as he suddenly smiled, yet his eyes were full of coldness.

His subordinates, who knew their young master well, realized that their master was angered by this plan. That’s why the more he smiles, the more offended he is. Seeing him smile at Elder Yu like this made them shiver, and almost all the subordinates of Lin Chiru shut their mouths, not wanting to get involved. Elder Yu doesn’t seem to notice anything at all and even answers Lin Chiru’s question.

Elder Yu looked proud and answered, "Of course, it’s this old man, young master!"

"I see. Who else believes that this plan is plausible?" Lin Chiru asked.

The elders agreed to this plan and even raised their hands. As expected, almost all elders from the L Sect had raised their hands. There are some brainless ones from his side, but they were held back by some elders from his side. The ones who acted like this are some elders with brains who noticed that something was wrong with his mood.

Elder Yu didn’t notice and responded, "Of course. It is only a single young lady living alone. Comparing her with Di Lou surrounded by the Heavenly Medicine Sect, she is a safer target."

"I see," said Lin Chiru.

Elder Yu looked delighted upon hearing his words and seeing his reaction. He believes that even the young master was convinced and that he would be rewarded well.

Lin Chiru said, "This plan is simply amazingly stupid. Those who agree in this place right now, especially Elder Yu, can arrange their things and prepare to leave. You guys are all fired. You can complain to the clan as much as you want, but as of this moment, you guys are no longer connected to my Crimson Cloud Pavilion. You have until midnight to leave. If you choose to stay, that only means more food for my Xiao Bai here."

Elder Yu and the others who had sided with or agreed to the plans of targeting the young lady in the Heavenly Manor were all fired by Lin Chiru.

"What does the young master mean? You are firing us just because of the plan now!"

"Pick your things up and leave the pavilion by midnight, or else... You know what would happen," said Lin Chiru.

Once the smile of Lin Chiru had disappeared, the coldness in him had intensified. Elder Yu and those elders who had chosen to side with Elder Yu regretted it at this moment. They wanted to plead for another chance, but it was already too late, and they could only leave the room upon seeing the White Tiger behind Lin Chiru, standing up and growling at them.

Roars~

Elder Yu clicked his tongue and stood up, preparing to leave in a hurry. "Young master, you will regret this! Once we successfully took away those plant spirits, the clan would reward us. Let’s go!"

Watching this group leave, Lin Chiru’s eyes were as if staring at the dead. Once those he had fired all left the room, he immediately commanded his people to send the word to the whole city that the Crimson Cloud Pavilion no longer had a connection to those people. There are a lot of people who couldn’t understand this decision by Lin Chiru. Maybe only those with Lin Chiru in the Fantasy Forest can understand how scary the power of Yue Xuexia is. After all, it was they who had witnessed how Yue Xuexia blocked someone else’s divine punishment by herself.

Lin Chiru said, "Listen to my commands. Starting today, those who left have nothing to do with us, the Crimson Cloud Pavilion. Their life and death no longer matter to us. Send the word to everyone in the city. Also, send a message to the Heavenly Manor for me and inform me of the danger looming over her."

"Yes, Master!"
