Cultivation Pet Shop

A week later, Lin Fan gathered with his group in a secret space port.

This was a special space port that had been built in secret by the Lin Astral Family.

This port was completely separated from the normal ports of the Lin Astral Empire's capital and was only used by the Lin Astral Family.

It was used for when they left the city on secret missions, which was what Lin Fan was on.

There was a decoy that had been left in the palace while Lin Fan snuck out.

When they arrived at the port, Lin Fan was surprised to see the spaceship parked there.

This was a ship that was comparable to the Lin Astral Emperor's ship, but it was completely brand new.

This was the ship that had been custom made for Lin Fan.

It was a ship that had been specially ordered by the Lin Astral Emperor and had all of the state of the art technology installed in it. Construction of it had started when Lin Fan first came to the Lin Astral Empire and they had been slowly building it over time.

It had just been finished recently and now it was being used by Lin Fan.

But of course, when he decided to leave a few days ago, the Lin Astral Emperor suddenly gave another request to the builders.

He had them install many different weapons and barriers into this ship just in case anything happened.

This ship was now at the same level as the top tier battleships of the Lin Astral Empire while also being built for luxury.

It should be said that it was even more expensive than the Lin Astral Emperor's own ship.

That was just how much he pampered and cared for his great grandchildren.

The day that Lin Fan left, there was no one there to send him off.

Both the Lin Astral Emperor and Lin Jian were people who were watched, so they couldn't just sneak out to send him off. They had privately held a sending off party last night at the palace, so it didn't matter that they weren't here today.

The only other two who would send them off were the empress, who was also at the party, and Lin Xue.

Lin Xue had been at the party as well, but she had left early with a scowl on her face when she had been told that she couldn't come along.

She had been left behind when Lin Ao went out and she was being left behind now that Lin Fan was heading out.

She didn't care as much when Lin Ao left since she knew what her father and mother felt, so she left them alone to give them the alone time they needed. But it was different with Lin Fan.

Since the Blue Star Planet, she had felt him getting further and further away from her. He was reaching a level that she felt that she would never reach and he would leave her grasp.

That was especially true since she wasn't as talented as Lin Fan and had never received the Lin Astral Family's resources since she was young like her cousins. So right now, she was the weakest member of the Lin Astral Family, other than the ones still stuck on the Blue Star Planet and the infants that had just been born.

She was only in the Soul Realm, while all of the cousins were in the World Realm.

This was not something that she could accept.

At the same time, now that she was reunited with Lin Fan, she went on the offensive after Zi Ling appeared in his life.

She knew that if she remained passive, nothing would ever change.

But Lin Fan, the Lin Astral Emperor, and Lin Jian all wouldn't budge on this matter.

It was just too dangerous.

So she was left behind in the palace.

She had locked herself up in her room, but after Lin Fan left, she went to go train.

She knew that unless she reached a certain level of cultivation, there was nothing that she could do.

So she would make the most of her time here.

After Lin Fan's group set off, the first thing that they did was go in the opposite direction.

It was impossible for them to hide themselves completely even if they did leave from a secret port, so they would be taking a roundabout route that would take much longer, but it was safer for them like this.

It would have taken them a single day to arrive with the direct route, but with the roundabout route, it took them three days.

When they arrived, the team that had been dispatched was already waiting for them.

This was a planet that had a colony under the Lin Astral Empire on it, which was why there had been reports of this strange energy.

As soon as the strange energy was reported, the Lin Astral Empire's army sent a team of scouts here to investigate. But after what had happened, they had sent a full army here as well to guard the place.

But of course, that army wasn't on this planet itself.

It was on a different planet nearby that had no inhabitants and was covered in beasts.

The excuse for that was that this army was here on a training session, so they were camped there to fight against the demon beasts and to fight against each other for training.

In reality though, the experts of that army had moved to this planet.

So the ones greeting them were the general and the experts of that army.

When they saw the ship, they immediately kneeled down in front of it and waited for Lin Fan to walk down.

Only when Lin Fan was standing in front of them did the general and experts give their greeting.

Lin Fan just gave a simple acknowledgement of this before saying, "Bring me to the site of the strange energy."

The general and the experts were taken aback when they heard this since they never thought that Lin Fan would act this quickly. However, they also didn't dare delay as they quickly led the way over.

As they walked along, they couldn't help looking back at Lin Fan with looks of admiration.

They had naturally already heard rumours of this heir of the Lin Astral Family, but they never thought that they would have a chance to meet him so soon.

This personality, this aura, and this overall feel that he had, he was worthy of all the rumours that they had heard.

This was definitely something that they would be able to brag about to their families and friends in the future.

It didn't take them long to reach the location of the strange energy. Even before reaching it, Lin Fan and the other three could feel the strange energy coming from there.

Only when they got close enough did the Lin Astral Family guards step forward.

Their job was to guard Lin Fan, so of course they couldn't let him explore this dangerous place by himself.

Before they could let him go, they would have to secure the area.

The Ruler Realm guard stood right by Lin Fan and created a barrier around him while the others headed forward to scout the area that the strange energy was coming from.

It didn't take long before they came back because there wasn't much to scout out.

It had been written in the report that there was just this strange energy that they could feel in this small area, but they weren't able to find a single thing. Even though the area was completely abandoned.

The strange thing about this area was that it was in the middle of a forest, but the surrounding plants had all died.

There was just a circle of death where this strange energy was coming from.

So it didn't take them long to secure the area.

While he had been waiting for the guards to finish their search, Lin Fan had checked the surrounding area.

He could see that there was a gradual change from the cleared land and the forested land. There was a layer of dying plants that was around the area that was completely empty.

When he took his first step into the cleared area, he couldn't help knitting his brows.

The feeling of this strange energy, it was…somewhat familiar…

It was as if he had felt this strange energy somewhere before, but he couldn't tell where.

So he just stopped moving and knitted his brows to think.

After a while, he suddenly remembered where he felt this energy before.

It was from earth!

Back when he was still that young master, he had tried many different things. That included playing around with some dangerous things.

So he had robbed his family's lab and stolen some precious materials, but that had resulted in him getting radiation poisoning since he didn't know that they were radioactive materials. It was a good thing that he only took a single vial, or he might have died from radiation poisoning.

The feeling that he was feeling now from this strange energy…was just like the feeling of radiation. However, the difference was that he had his life energy around him that formed a barrier, protecting him from the harm of the radioactive energy.

But why would there be radioactive energy in this place?

Lin Fan couldn't help looking around before looking at the very center of the circle. He looked right down at the ground as if he was looking for something.
