Lin Yuan had not returned to the Divine Wood Federation in spite of the dire situation there because he was waiting for Purple Love.

But now that the matter had been settled, Lin Yuan said, "Auntie Purple, I will need to trouble you, Wen Yu, and Liu Jie to remain in this item. I will let you out once you arrive in the Divine Wood Federation!"

Purple Love immediately understood what Lin Yuan meant.

When traveling over far distances, the more powerful the person, the more spatial energy they required.

Spatial equipment could perfectly counter the energy requirement.

Purple Love smiled and said, "It's no trouble at all!"

Purple Love entered the Jewelled Cave Golden Toad, followed by Liu Jie and Wen Yu.

After apologizing to Blood New Moon and Blue Lotus, Lin Yuan went to the basement to transport himself to the Divine Wood Federation through the Space Tunnel.

After communicating with Silver Corona, Lin Yuan found out that many tribe members from the Iron Hammer Federation had gathered at the border, all of them heavily armed.

The armed tribe members had already made contact with the sea of bone lotus flowers more than once.

The Truth Association had ordered Luo Cai to launch an all-out invasion into the Divine Wood Federation.

In order to invade the Divine Wood Federation, the imperial guards needed to cross the sea of bone lotus flowers that was in their way. As such, many imperial guards had already led teams of tribe members into the sea of flowers.

Lin Yuan could not allow the Iron Hammer Federation's imperial guards to cross the sea of bone lotus flowers. Thus, Lin Yuan instructed Silver Corona to mercilessly kill the imperial guards and capture the tribe members who never had much will to resist to start with, just like it had done with the adventurers.

As the sea of flowers shifted, the captured tribe members were herded to the center of the area.

Soon after, Luo Lan entered the sea of flowers.

Lin Yuan could not allow the tribe members that Silver Corona had captured to die and become fertilizer.

From the tribe members' display, it was clear that they had been forced to enter the sea of flowers. None of them actually wanted to invade the Divine Wood Federation.

It was currently deep in the winter season.

They were already starving, and many more died in the midst of the long journey.

If they truly had to invade the Divine Wood Federation, they much preferred to do so during the warmer seasons when there was no lack of food.

However, the imperial guards represented Luo Cai's will and rushed the tribe members forward endlessly.

Many of them took advantage of their identities as imperial guards to reserve most of the food.

If these imperial guards were not comparatively stronger and these tribe members did not want to betray the Iron Hammer Federation, none of them would have followed Luo Cai's order.

By strictly following Luo Cai's erroneous order to invade the Divine Wood Federation at such a time, it was clear that the imperial guards were fully under Luo Cai's control.

Since the imperial guards were now Luo Cai's men and would not be loyal to Luo Lan, it was better to kill them.

It was likely that Luo Cai had already heard of the sea of bone lotus flowers' existence at the border between the Iron Hammer Federation and Divine Wood Federation.

Once he understood the situation, Luo Cai would immediately inform the Truth Association.

The Truth Association would immediately send experts to the scene when they found out that the sea of bone lotus flowers was blocking the invasion's advancement and the plan.

Thus, it was already decided that the battle between Lin Yuan and the Truth Association would take place within the territory that Silver Corona had created.

When he arrived at the Divine Wood Federation, Lin Yuan just needed to quietly observe the situation.

The location where Lin Yuan would arrive after being transported through the Space Tunnel was the main area of the underground palace.

When Su Yiren learned that Lin Yuan was about to return, she pulled Luo Lan with her to wait for him by the entrance.

Su Yiren could no longer handle the situation. It now concerned a battle between two federations, or rather an internal conflict in the Startling Lines Continent. Thus, Lin Yuan had to be the one to make the decisions.

The consequences could be irreparable if her decision went against Lin Yuan's.

Luo Lan could only imagine how many people had died on the long journey in the food-scarce winter.

If all the tribe members who were of age had come, it was likely that at least one-third of them had died.

But according to what Su Yiren said, even underage manpower, women, and the elderly had also been forced to join the crusade.

Thus, the number of people who had made it to the border alive had to be half of the original number.

Luo Lan could not understand why Luo Cai had made such a senseless order.

Luo Lan could understand if Luo Cai had killed her father after being blinded by power.

But now, he was disregarding the lives of the Iron Hammer Federation's citizens. This was an unforgivable mistake.

But no matter how much hate was bubbling within Luo Lan, there was nothing she could do to prevent all of it from happening.

All she could do now was wait for Lin Yuan to arrive to change it all.

When Luo Lan saw Lin Yuan, she immediately kneeled before him and looked into his eyes as she said, "Lord Lin Yuan, please provide the border area with some food! Luo Cai sent all of the tribes out, and the elderly and children should have fallen long ago!"

"After the long journey, there can't be many of the weak elderly, women, and children left. Luo Lan, go and change into this set of clothes. You can give out the food within these Diamond Item-Storing Walnuts at that time," replied Lin Yuan.

Luo Lan received the ring that Lin Yuan handed her.

She saw that there was a long dress with a thousand white gems embedded in it. There was a long shawl next to the dress.

The outfit was so extravagant that even Luo Lan, the First Princess of the Iron Hammer Federation, was stupefied.

She did not understand why Lin Yuan wanted her to change into these clothes at such a time.

When she looked inside the ring with almost 100 Item-Storing Walnuts, she saw they were filled with green vines that resembled the Usnea.

The Usnea was slightly poisonous. Some plants were immune to the poison, but human spirit qi professionals would immediately feel their tongues go numb when they consumed the Usnea. The sap would infect their throats and travel down until their entire bodies went numb.
