Fey Evolution Merchant



At that point, Luo Lan paused and was silent for a moment before she said nostalgically, "Frankly, I haven't been to the Absolute Cold Garden behind the palace in two and a half years, even though it's only a 10-minute walk away. I do miss it!"

Sha Sha and Ni Xing both looked shocked when they heard what Luo Lan said.

They did not know if Luo Lan was reminiscing about the previous court or missing her father. Nonetheless, they could sense that something was off with Luo Lan. Really wrong!

Could she have given up on taking control of the situation? But this was not like her.

But if she had come up with a plan, they could not tell what it was despite spending every day by her side.

When they saw the relaxed expression on her face, neither of them could say anything. All they could do was allow themselves to be dragged to the Absolute Cold Garden.

The Iron Hammer Federation's terrain was uneven. The area at the border of the Divine Wood Federation and Iron Hammer Federation was unkempt and barren. Only a few weeds were growing in the cracks of rocks and tiny patches of grass.

This was partly due to the geographical position but also because of the Divine Wood Federation.

Plants in the Iron Hammer Federation had to be rare in order for the imports from the Divine Wood Federation to fetch higher prices there.

It went without saying that the same went for metal resources in the Divine Wood Federation.

As a result, it was difficult for there to exist a garden in the Iron Hammer Federation that thrived all year round, much less in the Freezing Hammer Tribe, which was at the foot of Snow Celestial Mountain.

The Absolute Cold Garden was the most beautiful place in the Freezing Hammer Tribe and where Luo Lan played during her childhood.

A garden like this that even the disciples of veteran elite families had no access to was a mystical existence in the minds of the Iron Hammer Federation's people. This was akin to how people from the north felt bothered by the snow, but people from the south were fascinated by it.

The Absolute Cold Garden could provide a conducive environment for plants to grow because there was a top-grade strange flame, the Spring Bedding Dawn Fire, there.

Amongst all of the top-grade strange flames, the Spring Bedding Dawn Fire was one of the rare ones that could facilitate the growth of plants and had healing abilities.

The Absolute Cold Garden's construction began from the moment the Iron Hammer Federation's imperial court obtained the Spring Bedding Dawn Fire.

Since then, more than 170 years had passed.

Normally, the Iron Hammer Federation was very short on resources.

Any ruler with burdens and a sense of responsibility would not try to build a place of enjoyment when resources were in such short supply.

There was a more important significance behind the Absolute Cold Garden's existence, which was to use the Spring Bedding Dawn Fire to nurture a large amount of plant-type feys.

There was nothing rarer in the Iron Hammer Federation than plants. The main reason was that plants could not survive in such a cold climate.

But if the plant-type feys were contracted by spirit qi professionals, they would live in the spirit qi professionals' spiritual spatial zone. This would solve most of their problems for survival.

There was no better breeder in nature than plants.

When plant-type feys had sufficient nutrients, they would reproduce after set periods of time.

After many years of hard work, the Iron Hammer Federation's imperial court's support of spirit qi professionals who were affiliated with plant-type feys finally paid off.

Alas, such a payoff was insignificant in consideration of the entire Iron Hammer Federation.

Moreover, Luo Cai's series of despicable actions had damaged the Iron Hammer Federation's fundamental profits. During the long winter, his actions had caused many spirit qi professionals affiliated with plant-type feys to die.

After all, the spirit qi professionals who were in charge of food production were the first to use up their spiritual power.

If the entire group was healthy, the spirit qi professionals' lost spiritual power could be replenished.

But if the entire group was already at the end of their wicks, these spirit qi professionals would have no chance to recover and would become the weak links of the entire group.

Luo Lan had not felt much when she had been the First Princess of the Iron Hammer Federation.

But in the two weeks that she had occupied the throne, Luo Lan had come to fully understand the meaning of 'a million things to do.'

If the entire Iron Hammer Federation could run like a well-oiled machine and all the tribes to be united in the same goal, Luo Lan was confident that prosperity would arise from millions of things to do. But that said, there was also the condition of the Iron Hammer Federation being able to smoothly trade resources with the Divine Wood Federation.

But Luo Lan had forgotten that after solving the issue of hunger, the issues of corruption and greed would rear their ugly heads.

Luo Lan had always been soft-hearted and rarely did things that could be called cruel.

Ever since she gave the order to kill her relatives from the Freezing Hammer Tribe, Luo Lan had been carrying a heavy burden on her shoulders.

The discomfort only started to subside a few days ago.

But now, in order to wipe out the poverty and destitution that ran rampant on the streets of the Iron Hammer Federation, Luo Lan decided to personally hand out the knives.

After making this decision, Luo Lan found peace and could start planning for further in the future. She started thinking about how the development would carry on after the Iron Hammer Federation was cleansed.

Sha Sha and Ni Xing were well aware of the urgent situation in the Iron Hammer Federation.

Sha Sha and Ni Xing used to be elites from Black Gold tribes and had learned all the tribes' scheming ways.

But ever since they became Luo Lan's attendants, their angle changed from that of the tribes to the entire federation.

Now, both of them felt a deep sense of responsibility. It was this sense of responsibility that led Luo Lan to pick them.

Sha Sha and Ni Xing shared a look before they turned to watch Luo Lan leisurely stroll through the Absolute Cold Garden.

Ni Xing, who always acted decisively, spoke resolutely. "Your Majesty, you are the only one who can find a way to help the Iron Hammer Federation out of its crisis. You had a discussion with the six of us. No Black Gold tribe would have a legitimate reason for stepping in. The Platinum tribes that have become arrogant after all the fighting are showing clear signs of wanting to break free from the Black Gold tribes' control. You—"

Before Ni Xing could finish speaking, Luo Lan waved her hands and said, "I already said that the issue will be solved without a hitch in the next few days. For the past two weeks, I've asked you to keep watch of the changes to Snow Celestial Mountain and record them all down. Bring these records to me now."

Ni Xing bit her lip at Luo Lan's change of topic. A moment later, she bowed to Luo Lan and left to fetch the information on Snow Celestial Mountain.

Sha Sha was not as brave as Ni Xing, but she was more introspective. She could sense a deeper meaning behind Luo Lan's words.
