270: Chapter 271 Does Teacher Su Want to Move In?

The meticulous Xu Ruohan, while assisting him with affairs, remembered Su Qingyue, who had interacted with him many times and helped him quite a bit before. Consequently, she privately contacted Su Zongming and casually mentioned it, treating it as a favor and giving Su Qingyue an opportunity for rapid advancement.

Lin Muyang naturally wouldn't blame Xu Ruohan for taking this initiative. After all, from the start of his class transfer until now, Su Qingyue, his former beautiful class teacher, had indeed provided a lot of help in intelligence aggregation, data organization, and even the handover of some initial resources, indirectly accelerating his growth rhythm. Now that he had the ability to form a high-efficiency leveling team, bringing her along was a reasonable way to repay past kindness.

Of course, this also meant that in the future, when all members of this squad reached the peak of Level 99 and prepared to break through the Level 100 threshold, Lin Muyang would need to prepare an additional portion of top-tier Elemental Essence for the breakthrough.

"However, as long as we can successfully conquer a mythic grade secret realm and obtain its core resources, there shouldn't be a shortage of sky-opening grade Elemental Essence." Lin Muyang wasn't particularly worried about this. Resource issues were always gradually resolved as one's strength increased.

He turned his gaze toward Xu Ruohan beside him, his tone carrying a hint of regret: "Sister Ruohan, your current level has already exceeded 200, and you've completed two important breakthroughs... I remember you saying before that you used legendary-grade Elemental Essence?"

"Ah, yes." Xu Ruohan felt a bit unaccustomed to hearing Lin Muyang call her so naturally, but a warm current quietly welled up deep in her heart. Did this change in address mean that the relationship between them had moved a step closer than simple cooperation and employment?

"It's a bit of a pity," Lin Muyang admitted frankly. "If we had met earlier, perhaps I could have prepared something better for you. When you need to break through Level 300 in the future, I will definitely prepare the most top-tier Elemental Essence for you." He could only make such a promise. For a Class Transferee who had already completed a breakthrough and had a fixed path, his current abilities could not change their past foundation.

"It's fine, don't worry about it." Xu Ruohan smiled radiantly, her demeanor gentle and open-minded. "The most important thing right now is to raise everyone's overall level and strength. As for my previous breakthroughs, they were already very good opportunities. Now, collecting and organizing all information regarding secret realms, scrolls, and even mythic grade ruins for you is my highest priority and most important task."

"Mm, thank you for your hard work." Lin Muyang nodded, highly appreciative of her understanding of the big picture and her efficiency.

After the banquet, the Eternal Garden entered its usual leisure time.

Everyone dispersed. For Lin Muyang, even though he now had multiple channels like the Xia Country authorities, the American Empire's New Parliament, and even the Oracle Organization collecting various secret realm scrolls and resources for him, the consumption rate of these resources still far lagged behind his speed of conquering secret realms. Often, for a high-difficulty scroll, he would take the girls in and clear it in about an hour. Therefore, he rarely arranged intensive cultivation or combat missions after dinner.

This period became the exclusive time for the young ladies in the garden to move freely and relax. Whether they were partners he had summoned or girls who followed him later like Shen Muyao and Chiba Ruri, they could all find a leisure activity that suited them within the vast Eternal Garden.

Some were addicted to modern electronic games—Lilia and Seraphina often huddled in front of the treehouse's holographic projection, playing competitive controller games online. The Elf Maiden's noob skills formed an interesting contrast with the assassin girl's focus.

Some loved sports—Gui Wanwan was always full of energy, often dragging the relatively quiet Jialiya to a specially made badminton court that could withstand immense force, their figures flying back and forth.

Others focused on service and creating a better environment—the Angel Maid Elena was never idle. She moved lightly between the exquisite pavilions, tidying rooms for each young lady, changing the incense, and making enchanted beds with minor experience-gain effects to ensure everyone benefited even while resting.

The entire Eternal Garden appeared quiet and full of the breath of life under the night sky. Soft psionic lights dotted the pavilions, small bridges, and flowing water, reflecting the cheerful or tranquil figures of the young ladies, as if it were a paradise secluded from the world.

A short while later, at the Purple Jade Villa.

Lin Muyang went personally to pick up Su Qingyue. Brilliant Starlight Dragon Wings unfolded from his back, and amidst Su Qingyue's slightly nervous soft cry, he held her waist and soared into the sky, turning into a streak of light that pierced the night sky and landed steadily on the square in the center of the Eternal Garden.

Stepping into this legendary garden for the first time, Su Qingyue looked around curiously. Wherever they went, they would occasionally encounter young ladies of peerless beauty and varying temperaments. Seeing Lin Muyang, they would greet him naturally, and some lively ones would even pounce over to act spoiled. This scene made Su Qingyue feel both amused and somewhat sentimental.

"Lin Muyang," she chuckled, covering her mouth, her beautiful eyes filled with teasing, "the life you lead here is probably what countless people around the world dream of."

"To be honest, it really is quite nice." Lin Muyang admitted frankly with a smile.

"Actually..." Su Qingyue's gaze swept over the young ladies playing or resting in the distance, her voice softening slightly, "for many girls, being able to live in your Eternal Garden is itself a dream come true."

"Oh?" Lin Muyang tilted his head to look at her, a smile in his eyes. "What about you?"

"Me? I, of course, also..." Su Qingyue's pretty face flushed slightly, and she stopped mid-sentence. She didn't continue, but the look in her eyes already made her meaning self-evident.

Seeing her rare display of shyness, Lin Muyang smiled knowingly and didn't press further. Instead, he pointed to a planned open space near the main building: "Once you settle in, I'll find two friends skilled in architecture to build a small building for you here. The style can be designed according to your preference."

"Ah? There's no need for such trouble, right?" Su Qingyue was a bit surprised and quickly waved her hands. "I heard there are many guest rooms in the garden with great facilities. I can just stay in any one of them..."

"It's no trouble. There might be more and more people moving in later, so it's better to plan ahead," Lin Muyang explained. "Moreover, having your own separate building is more convenient and comfortable. It's settled then."

"Well... alright then, thank you." Seeing his persistence, Su Qingyue no longer declined, a hint of sweetness rising in her heart. She continued to observe the surroundings, seeing the silhouettes of Lilia and Seraphina focused on gaming at the treehouse window, seeing Gui Wanwan's tricky smash draw a soft cry from Jialiya, and also seeing Elena carrying soft fabrics as she lightly entered the ice-blue styled building where Ao Qingyue lived... The entire garden was full of vitality, yet appeared spacious and well-arranged due to its vast area, with a peaceful and serene atmosphere permeating the space.

What she didn't know was that before long, this garden would become even more lively. Because once Lin Muyang successfully broke through Level 100, one of the primary items in his plan was to bring all of Elabess's succubus sisters—who were still struggling in misery in the Dark Abyss—to this relatively stable world.

That abyss filled with chaos and danger was by no means a place for long-term residence. As long as conditions allowed, Lin Muyang would never let his partners suffer there.

However, this matter also gave him a bit of a headache. Bringing over a large number of succubi and providing basic living security and resources wasn't a problem for him. The Eternal Garden was large enough, and with the channels he now controlled, he could fully meet the demand for various living supplies and cultivation resources.

The key lay in the fact that if they were to truly establish themselves in this world and become reliable assets, their overall strength had to be raised quickly. This meant a massive amount of secret realm scrolls and cultivation resources suitable for their levels were needed for rapid growth.

"Fortunately, with my current strength and influence, I'm basically mobilizing mid-to-high-end advancement resources on a global scale," Lin Muyang thought. Currently, the channels were just being established, and the speed of resource inflow hadn't reached its peak. Once Hansa and Helena fully sorted out the American Empire's side, and the Xia Country official channels fully cooperated, along with the Oracle Organization and other hidden channels exerting effort, the various secret realm scrolls and rare resources would likely be so numerous that he'd need to arrange his time carefully to digest them all.

In fact, not long ago, Xu Ruohan had just sent him an important notification. The highest levels of Xia Country had granted him an unprecedented special authority: he could directly extract any resources he needed from any level of Xia Country's strategic reserves without points or approval!

Even more startling was that this authority was directly opened to the top-secret T0-level National Treasury access!

Stored in this level of the treasury were the most precious strategic reserves accumulated by Xia Country over decades or even a century. Among them, there were actually several pieces of mythic grade equipment and as many as over twenty mythic grade skill books! These treasures were mostly kept as ultimate trump cards until now because no top-tier experts with perfectly matching attributes or rare class inheritances had been found to use them.

For any country, this was a staggering wealth sufficient to trigger a war. But after seeing the true combat power of Lin Muyang and his subordinates, and deeply realizing his value and potential, the Xia Country authorities made this extremely bold and visionary decision to open it fully to him!

Of course, in Lin Muyang's view, while these mythic grade equipment and skill books were precious, they weren't enough to make him particularly excited. What he valued more was this attitude of unreserved support, as well as the detailed historical data and research results regarding various secret realms that the massive resource library could provide.

Main building, study.

As soon as Lin Muyang returned here with Su Qingyue, the first batch of detailed data and analysis reports regarding the "patterns of mythic grade secret realm appearances" organized by Xu Ruohan was sent to his information terminal.

"Just in time," Lin Muyang said to Su Qingyue. "Teacher Su, you're skilled at data analysis and pattern summarization. Let's take a look together. We need to calculate the most likely time and approximate location for the next mythic-rank secret realm to appear."

"Okay, leave it to me." Su Qingyue immediately entered work mode, her gaze becoming focused and sharp, a world away from her shyness just moments ago.

While Su Qingyue began combing through the data, Lin Muyang didn't stay idle either. He decided to upgrade the talents of the demon sisters, Mo Mingxue and Mo Yingmei, right now.
