Otherworldly Companions: Every Handsome Man is Extraordinary

Chapter 185 Considerations and Evaluation

“I have my own considerations. Choosing him as a partner may be more suitable than choosing some other humans.”

Although Lin Yi was sometimes impulsive, he was always very intelligent, and he quickly grasped Jiang Yu's general idea. Moreover, he subconsciously thought with a somewhat dark side that a rootless sea monster was far more advantageous to him than a human with a powerful background.

“But he is not human after all, and the Empire may not recognize him. How can we give him a reasonable identity?” Lin Yi still had some concerns.

“Chen Xin said Keslan could handle it, but if he can’t,” Jiang Yu’s eyes darkened. “The Empire is also implicated in my schemes, and we have to get this favor back.” Jiang Yu suddenly remembered something and quickly grabbed Lin Yi’s hand.

“We can’t trust everything that Keslan says. We’ve been apart for so long, there’s been an information gap. Yi, tell me quickly what happened while I was away.”

Jiang Yu has always had this kind of personality; she wants to control everything herself. Her greatest reliance is her own mind. If she can't keep up with the latest information, she can't guarantee who will have the initiative.

If you're not careful, you and those around you can become manipulated victims.

So, putting everything else aside, Moya's outrageous fighting prowess is exactly the trump card she needs.

Lin Yi recounted to Jiang Yu everything that had happened during this period in a simple yet detailed manner, including everything that had occurred in the palace before he returned to the capital.

When Jiang Yu heard that Fan Qingyin had repeatedly sacrificed herself to kill Madam Tini and Ren Kecheng to seek justice for her and save her, only to find herself now lifeless, and that if it weren't for the sacred artifact of the Yulia family... Jiang Yu painfully closed her eyes, trying to stop the tears that were about to flow again.

When she heard the news of Zhong Qin and Ren Kecheng's deaths, she felt a profound calm and indifference. Everyone must be responsible for their actions and atone for their sins.

Lady Tini's easy death was something she hadn't expected. Combining Lin Yi's words with her own thoughts of the kind and composed emperor she had first met, a chill ran through her.

The methods of imperial power politics are indeed extraordinary. Once caught in the vortex of power, one becomes a cog in the machine of the state. When the regime is in turmoil, no one can escape the catastrophe.

Everyone's fate is predetermined; the powerful hand that manipulates power has already written their ending the moment they step onto the table. In the blink of an eye, the difference between heaven and hell is not obvious. Fortunately, those she cared for and loved withstood the test of this calamity and survived.

Besides her soothing voice.

"So, Molinbia is actually a half-beloved of the legendary god? The Twilight Willow Clan? Moya is their last descendant?" Jiang Yu pondered. Altar physique? No wonder she can activate the sacrificial array. I just don't know if it will be of any help to Qingyin.

“Since he really exists, he’s no longer a legend.” Lin Yi’s mood finally calmed down a bit. The thought of becoming family with a sea monster made him feel a little strange, especially since the monster was a species with even higher bloodline power and explosive combat strength. But thinking about it from another angle, it seemed that Xiao Yu would receive better protection this way.

Ugh, I'm so conflicted.

"Xiaoyu, where is that sea monster?" Lin Yi asked curiously. It can transform into human form? How come he didn't see it?

"He should be at sea. I can't worry about him now. Let's talk about it after I see Qingyin." Moya's understanding was surprising, and Jiang Yu's feelings were also somewhat complicated.

Keslan's hostile and confusing words did not disturb her mind. Moya was naturally an indirect culprit in making Qingyin the way she was now, but ultimately, the root cause was still her.

There's no point in dwelling on past mistakes; what she needs to think about now is how to save Qingyin and awaken her lover. And she has a premonition that, barring unforeseen circumstances, she will need Moya's help to achieve her goal.

"When you meet him, don't call him 'sea monster,' just call him Moya," Jiang Yu instructed Lin Yi. Lin Yi pouted, "Okay, okay, Xiao Yu, why are you already favoring him...?"

"I know, it must be because it's novel, right? There's nothing we can do, they're a mysterious race and so powerful..." Lin Yi said with a reproachful, wifely expression, which immediately made Jiang Yu laugh.

"Alright, alright, I just felt like you suddenly grew up, why are you getting jealous again?" Jiang Yu raised her hand, pinched Lin Yi's noticeably thin cheek, and said with concern:

"Now that I'm back safely, you'd better get back to your prettier self. Being skinny doesn't look good at all, and it's hard to pinch your cheeks anymore. If you don't get back to how you used to be, I'll never kiss you again."

"No way! I'll eat properly, I'm sure I'll grow back quickly! I can't do without a kiss, I want it now!" Lin Yi exclaimed, then kissed him without hesitation. The two playfully bickered and cuddled for a while before starting to plan their next steps.

Jiang Yu and his group will stay at the rest stop for one night and continue their journey tomorrow. They should arrive at the Fan family's residence before evening.

According to Lin Yi's plan, Keslan would have nothing to do next, but now it seems that the leader of the powerful and eccentric 'Owl' organization is acting very enthusiastically for some reason.

His worried gaze fell on Jiang Yu's face. His male intuition made him a little nervous. Could it be that Keslan had taken a liking to Xiao Yu? But he didn't act friendly. Even when facing Xiao Yu, he was sarcastic and very sharp-tongued.

What a strange man.

I heard he's still a member of the Yuria family, though he's been expelled. He still controls such a dangerous organization as 'Owl,' so if something happens to him one day, he'll be going down with this giant ship.

No, no, such a complicated background isn't suitable for Xiaoyu. What if it drags Xiaoyu into danger and trouble? Lin Yi thought about it and began to shake his head in rejection.

Jiang Yu watched Lin Yi shaking his head like a big dog, finding it amusing and also curious, wondering what was going on in his head.

"Xiaoyu, what do you think of Keslan?" Lin Yi looked at Jiang Yu carefully, not missing any subtle expression on her face.

Then he saw his wife pause for a moment to think, and then look at him very seriously and say, “Although this person’s character seems questionable, and he’s crazy and sharp-tongued, he couldn’t have built an organization like ‘Owl’ out of thin air, so we can’t be his enemy.”

That's really objective. Xiao Yu's evaluation of Keslan is no different from her evaluation of a dangerous yet handy tool.

Lin Yi felt relieved and explained to Jiang Yu, "Little Yu, you probably don't know yet, but Keslan is the expelled Yulia."
