2222 Honor Absent Palace and Faerie Institution!
Jia Ran had produced a total of five life treasures. They were the five dark gold snake scales that Lin Yuan had stolen.
Without any of his life treasures, Jia Ran's combat power would be greatly discounted. If he continued to partner with Yu Xin in his current state, he would be shortchanging him.
There were no shortcuts to forming life treasures.
Special precious spiritual ingredients could be used to speed up the formation of the first life treasure. But such methods were only useful a few times. Over time, the effects would dwindle.
In order to form these five life treasures, Jia Ran had spent a large portion of his finances on precious spiritual ingredients. But even after that, it still took him 3,200 years to form the five life treasures.
Without the help of precious spiritual ingredients, the formation process would be extremely slow. Essentially, it would take him a full 5,000 years in order to make up for his recent losses.
When Yu Xin saw how depressed Jia Ran was, he got a stronger feeling that something was wrong. He frowned and asked Jia Ran sincerely, "We have been partners for thousands of years. There isn't anything you should be hiding from me! Jia Ren, I might be able to help you!'
Jia Ran was silent for a moment before he suppressed his emotions, lifted his head, and said, "Yu Xin, you can't help me with this! No one can help me with this! I will request the captain to remove our partnership and assign me to a team that doesn't do combat."
Jia Ran's voice was trembling slightly but was full of unmistakable bitterness.
Yu Xin's eyes widened. "Jia Ran, you've gone insane! This isn't like you at all! Isn't it your dream to enter the Honor Absent Palace?"
Yu Xin knew better than anyone else how hard Jia Ran worked. Besides Jia Ran, not many people were willing to spend so many resources to purchase spirit attribute items to speed up the formation of life treasures.
Jia Ran was always extremely rational and responsible.
Yu Xin did not believe that Jia Ran's mindset had changed during his absence. He was certain that Jia Ran had fallen into deep trouble that he could not resolve.
Yu Xin placed his hand on Jia Ran's shoulder and pulled Jia Ran's head toward him.
"Speak! What happened? If I can't solve the issue, we can go and plead with the captain! He is connected to someone from the Honor Absent Palace. If you're in trouble, the captain will definitely go and seek help from that person on your behalf! You know how well the captain treats us."
Jia Ran understood Yu Xin just as well as Yu Xin understood Jia Ran.
Jia Ran knew that if he did not give Yu Xin an answer he found acceptable, Yu Xin would never let the matter go.
Jia Ran knew that he had not only lost all of his life treasures but also committed a grave crime. But he did need someone who he could vent to.
After their thousands of years of history together, Jia Ran knew that Yu Xin would never reveal this matter.
Jia Ran organized his thoughts and forced himself to calm down before he said in a hoarse voice, "Yu Xin, do you remember me asking you whether an intermediate faerie can appear in a Class 1 world? I encountered exactly that once. In order to investigate the reason, I decided to hide one of my life treasures in a Heaven's Trial."
At that point, Yu Xin could not help but cry out, "Jia Ran, that was stupid! You broke one of the Honor Absent Palace's rules! If this gets out, not only will you be punished by the Honor Absent Palace, but the captain and I will be dragged in too! If the Honor Absent Palace doesn't keep a secure lid on this matter, they won't be able to answer to the Faerie Institute! The Honor Absent Palace can't afford to cross the Faerie Institute!"
Jia Ran could hear worry and admonishment in Yu Xin's tone.
If Yu Xin had said that before anything had happened, Jia Ren might not have been so reckless as to use all of his remaining four life treasures at once to search for just one. But now, there was no point in saying any of this.
"Normally, I can't use my life treasure to investigate a world during a faerie's Heaven's Trial. But if the faerie dies during its Heaven's Trial, I will be able to do so. But, the intermediate faerie from that Class 1 world fended off its Heaven's Trial that was emboldened by my life treasure, and I ended up losing connection with my life treasure after that Heaven's Trial!
"The Class 1 world where the lower faerie was just born is the same Class 1 world where I lost my life treasure. This time, I hid four of my life treasures inside the Heaven's Trial that the natural landscape had to face."
Jia Ran's words caused Yu Xin to frown. He never expected his longtime partner to do something so audacious.
More importantly, Jia Ran was clearly trying to say that the four life treasures had also ended up lost in that Class 1 world.
What Jia Ran said next confirmed Yu Xin's guess.
Yu Xin looked at Jia Ran with a conflicted gaze for some time before he sighed. He finally knew why Jia Ran had said what he said.
No one could help Jia Ran with this matter. The only thing that Yu Xin could do was keep the secret for Jia Ran.
If this matter got out, it would just be a simple matter of Jia Ran dragging him in, but their entire team might be dispatched to the most chaotic districts.
If the Faerie Institution found out that one of the teams under the Honor Absent Palace had tried to kill an intermediate and a lower faerie just to try to find out the secret of a Class 1 world, it would definitely take great umbrage and react violently.
If the Faerie Institution turned its back on the Honor Absent Palace, it might even affect its position in the East Universe.
There were already more than 100 higher faeries in the Faerie Institution. Recently, the number of sacred faeries in the Faerie Institution had increased from seven to eight.
As a result, the Faerie Institution's influence had expanded significantly.
Moreover, unlike the Honor Absent Palace, the Faerie Institution was not rooted in just one universe.
Due to their special nature, the Faerie Institution held authority in all four major universes.
There was no way they could ask the captain to beg for help from his connection in the Honor Absent Palace. If the captain learned about this matter, he would become so furious that even his tail would pop out.
