‘Path Protection’ was a very sacred term in the hearts of the Radiance Federation.
Path Protection referred to protecting a youth’s safety and growth, as well as the path of a very young unsurpassed talent.
A youth’s Path Protector would protect them from all the dangers encountered on the journey of growing up. As a bystander, a Path Protector would watch the path they were protecting, which was also the growth of the youth.Yôur favorite stories at novelhall.com
Those who were qualified to become Path Protectors were required to have a Willpower Rune. The Path Protector would then swear an oath at the Willpower Rune and protect the youth’s growth with all their might and even their life until they were satisfied with it.
The Path Protector would then activate their oath again and take on the duty of the youth’s butler.
They would not just protect the growth of the youth as a bystander.
If a Path Protector was dissatisfied with the path they were protecting, the Path Protector would dissolve the rune oath with the youth once the youth grew up. From then on, the Path Protector would leave the youth and no longer protect them.
Generally, the youths with Path Protectors were all from prestigious and high-ranking families. This was due to the fact that an expert would not gain any real benefits after becoming a Path Protector. They were just gambling on the youth’s future.
If the path they were protecting ceased to exist, the Path Protector would suffer a backlash from the Willpower Rune. The Path Protector would do their best to protect the youth’s future until the youth matured. Thus, a Path Protector’s protection was somewhat like the rite of a knight before the Spirit Qi Awakening.
Of course, a Path Protector did not just protect indiscriminately. Before the youth grew up, a Path Protector could only take action in the event of a life-and-death situation. It was a kind of life protection.
Usually, even if the youth suffered insults and endless torture, the Path Protector could only watch if it was not a life-and-death situation.
In Lin Yuan’s opinion, it seemed to be afraid of this rabbit. It slowly prostrated with its tail slightly curled up. This was how fox feys expressed their submission. Even though these feys were known for their arrogance and rarely submitted even to death, this fey was actually submissive.
The fox feys had always been outstanding among the beast-type feys, as few were comparable to them. Furthermore, fox feys were very rare, so it was usually hard to see them, let alone a white seven-tailed fox.
Lin Yuan remembered something recorded in some books on supernatural fables in his previous life.
When a fox has seven tails, a series of calamities will ensue. When a fox has nine tails, the world will be in chaos.
Before Lin Yuan could examine this white seven-tailed fox in front of him, the Moon Empress had finished combing its tail. She then raised her hand and stored this seven-tailed fox in the spiritual spatial zone.
Cold Moon went forward and said, “Moon Empress, your Calamity Sun-Swallowing Fox has evolved from six tails to seven tails. It seems to have evolved into Myth I.”
The Moon Empress nodded and saw Lin Yuan. Then she waved her hand and said as a smile spread across her face, “Now that you’re here, I guess you should have escaped from being assassinated.”
The Moon Empress examined Lin Yuan’s expression and was also relieved. Previously, she had been thinking about how to enlighten him.
Lin Yuan chuckled and revealed his white teeth, looking very cheerful.
“I’ve made you worried, Master.”
Actually, Lin Yuan was not frightened because of the previous assassination. His expression had looked ugly because Lin Yuan truly recognized how weak he really was after the assassination.
After living two lifetimes and died once, ordinary people could not imagine Lin Yuan’s firmness.
When Lin Yuan addressed her as Master, the Moon Empress beamed with joy right away, which left Cold Moon dumbfounded.
Cold Moon could not remember how many years it had been since the Moon Empress had smiled so happily!
