2077 Problems That Can Be Solved by the Lifespan Mouse Aren’t Problems!

At that moment, Lin Yuan understood why the Moon Empress’ brow had been furrowed so deeply.

If the elderly man’s life came to an end, it would spell doom for the Radiance Federation.

It was apparent that the Moon Empress, or rather all the members of royalty in the Radiance Federation, were incapable of helping that elderly man.

The elderly man was not a Creation Master, and he could defend the Radiance Federation from any calamity.

When it came to prying into the secrets of life, Creation Masters were more knowledgeable.

Lin Yuan still had three uncontracted Lifespan Mice.

He was willing to give one of them to this elderly man who had dedicated his life to the Radiance Federation in order to turn it into a haven.

However, the Moon Empress said that the elderly man only had one or two years left.

The end of a person’s life was not only related to one’s lifespan. One’s soul, spiritual energy, and body also played big parts.

If a person ran out of soul power and withered and died, they would never be able to open his eyes again, even if he still had a remaining lifespan.

A soul that had withered would be scattered across the earth.

A legendary lifeform like the Remembrance Soul Whale could gather the pieces of souls but could not search for dissipated souls.

Hence, Lin Yuan could not guarantee that he would be able to help the elderly man despite possessing the Lifespan Mice.

Lin Yuan asked the Moon Empress seriously, “Master, can you tell me why the elderly man is only left with one or two years?”

The elderly man’s condition was the Radiance Federation’s biggest secret.

However, the Moon Empress had already mentioned it to him. This meant that she would definitely reply to him when he asked.

The Moon Empress sighed and said, “Little Yuan, by the time I found out about the situation, the elderly man had already fallen comatose. Cicada Song said that he had met backlash when trying to advance and breakthrough.”

The Moon Empress spoke while lamenting to herself.

She had also experienced backlash because she had been too impulsive in trying to break through.

But given that the elderly man’s level was higher than hers, the backlash he experienced was much more severe.

The Moon Empress could stand in his shoes and guess how he was feeling now. It was a helplessness of one’s life coming to an end, desolate loneliness that could send anyone into a spiral of despair.

The Moon Empress had been able to handle it on and soldier on as though nothing was wrong because of Lin Yuan.

At that time, she had placed all her hopes in him. She hoped that she could help him to open up a long path before her lifespan ended. At least then, she would not have wasted her time being his master.

The elderly man’s heart belonged to the Radiance Federation.

It was unlikely that he was feeling lonely and desperate because his life was coming to an end.

It was more likely that he was feeling deeply reproachful.

This was because he was the one who had made the two-year gamble with the Freedom Federation.

According to the information from the Freedom Federation, the Mirror God had already set his spirit fire alight.

Previously, the God of Fools had been stronger than the Mirror God.

In order to set one’s spirit fire alight, it was more likely to be the result of an opportunity rather than hard work.

The God of Fools might not have set his spirit fire alight, but it was likely that he already had.

The elderly man had already guessed during an imperial meeting that the two of the Freedom Federation’s members of royalty had set their spirit fires alight before the news came from the Goddess of Mercy.

Regardless, the elderly man had still dared to make the bet with the Freedom Federation for the Major Federation Meeting.

This was because no one could be allowed to trample over the Radiance Federation’s honor. The elderly man needed to put some pressure on the trouble-causing brats.

Furthermore, the elderly man had already set his spirit fire alight seven years ago. However, he could not leave the Radiance Federation because half of his soul had fused with his sacred source lifeform, which was then bound to the Radiance Federation.

After sighing, the Moon Empress said, “Little Yuan, Cicada Song said that the elderly man had a drop of the Earth Center Fine Milk, but he gave it to me. Otherwise, the drop of Earth Center Fine Milk would have allowed him to live another year.”

Cicada Song had told the Moon Empress about the Earth Center Fine Milk because she had said during the imperial meeting that her issue had been resolved.

Thus, Cicada Song had asked the Moon Empress if she had used the drop of Earth Center Fine Milk.

Since the Moon Empress had given the drop of Earth Center Fine Milk to Lin Yuan, there was no way she could use it to extend the elderly man’s life by another year.

In fact, the Moon Empress did have a way of enabling the elderly man to continue living.

Lin Yuan had given her the Lifespan Mouse, which had solved her issue. She could now live seemingly forever and did not have to worry about the passage of time robbing her life.

The Moon Empress could choose to break her contract with the Lifespan Mouse and give it to the elderly man to contract instead.

But this would mean that the Moon Empress would have to give up on her life in order to save the elderly man’s life.

The more powerful the person, the more terrified of death they would be. This was because he would have a greater longing to see the view from higher levels.

It went without saying that the Moon Empress was no exception.

Apart from increasing her power, she also wanted to see Lin Yuan grow. She wanted to see Lin Yuan fly with his strong wings and do her duty as his master.

But if the day truly came that the elderly man’s life was going to end, she would make him promise to protect Lin Yuan before she gave up on the Lifespan Mouse.

This was because she knew that without the elderly man, the Radiance Federation would stand no chance of fending off the Freedom Federation.

The Moon Empress had the character befitting a member of royalty.

From the day she became a Radiance Envoy until she became a member of royalty, the Moon Empress had been ready to lay down her life to protect the Radiance Federation, just like any other member of royalty.

If the Moon Empress needed to make such a decision, she would not hide it from Lin Yuan. She would have called him and told him about her choice.

She believed that Lin Yuan would understand her.

When the Moon Empress sighed, her frown deepened.

Meanwhile, Lin Yuan’s brow relaxed after he heard what the Moon Empress said.

The Earth Center Fine Milk could not only cleanse a body of its impurities and refine the genetic model, but it could also extend one’s lifespan.

Since the Earth Center Fine Milk could extend the elderly man’s life by a year, it must mean that his issue had been the same as that of the Moon Empress.

Both could be solved with the Lifespan Mouse.

Since the Lifespan Mouse could solve it, it was not a difficult issue at all.
