The Peerless Emperor-Chapter 426 - 427: Countless Family Lights

The Heavenly Art Department had a way to burn Soul Crystal Lamps without affecting the spiritual stability inside the house, but it would significantly increase the cost.

For an ordinary Soul Martial Artist to light one for a few days might not be a problem, but if used year-round, it would be a loss not worth the cost.

Therefore, after obtaining the Fire Fruit, Lin Qian had asked Zhuge Ming whether this item could be used to create a convenient and practical light source?

Low consumption, good brightness, not affecting the stability of spiritual energy, and low cost!

Not long after, Lin Qian held in his hands an eight-sided hollow crystal box. At its center floated a Fire Fruit, emitting a soft, warm glow that was also quite bright but not glaring to the eyes.

Clearly, this was the result of the research from Zhuge Ming’s Heavenly Art Department.

Just at that moment, the door of a Human Clan house nearby suddenly opened, and a figure rushed out toward him.

In the gathering place of the Four Clans, although everyone lived together harmoniously, the architectural styles of their houses were quite distinct.

The Human Clan’s houses were mostly constructed from cut Spirit Wood, giving the buildings an elegant appearance, and they also used sturdy stones to reinforce them.

By comparison, the houses of the Red Horn Clan seemed more rugged, built from huge cut stone blocks a zhang in width and length.

As for the shorter houses, without much thought, one would know they belonged to the Dwarf Clan.

The houses of the Spirit Hoof Clan were the most simple, made by bundling Spirit Grass, but they were actually exceptionally sturdy.

However, the Spirit Hoof Clan’s houses needed frequent repairs because their clan greatly enjoyed eating Spirit Grass.

Actually, when they were on the road, Liu Fan had mentioned this to him— if one sees the Spirit Hoof Clan’s houses missing a piece here and there while in the settlement, there was no need to think twice, it was definitely because they had eaten it.

“Can’t you control your mouths?” While strolling through the settlement, Lin Qian often heard the deep roars of the Dwarf Clan.

After all, the architecture of the entire settlement was the masterpiece of the Dwarf Clan.

The Human Clan’s house before him, Lin Qian recognized at a glance, but what surprised him was that the person who rushed out of this house was that child, Little Jiang.

Little Jiang ran up to Lin Qian, his skin all red and sweating profusely.

Seeing the other’s appearance, Lin Qian knew for sure that he had taken one of his Potions.

The Huaxia Empire’s Potions differed from Pills, allowing one to choose between cultivating to digest the potion’s power or letting the potion’s effects manifest on their own.

However, if one cultivated while digesting the potion’s power, the speed was evidently much faster.

But for an Alchemist’s Pill, there was no such luxury, as one must enter a state of cultivation after consumption. Otherwise, there could only be two outcomes.

One was that the potency of the Pill was too overwhelming, causing the one who consumed it to literally explode, and the other was that the power of the Pill was not utilized, wastefully expending itself inside the body.

The Huaxia Empire’s Potions had none of these concerns, they were convenient and safe to consume.

“Lord, thank you!” After Little Jiang ran up to Lin Qian, he bowed in the same way he had seen Liu Fang and the others do, thanking him. When he straightened up, his face was beaming with excitement.

Seeing Little Jiang’s gesture, Lin Qian teased with a bit of amusement, “What, you’re not going to make me compensate you for the Strong Body Fruit anymore?”

Hearing Lin Qian say this, Little Jiang sheepishly scratched the back of his head, apologizing, “Lord, Little Jiang was wrong to blame you, please don’t be angry with me.”

“Hahaha, I won’t get angry,” Lin Qian touched Little Jiang’s head and then looked towards his house, “What, are you home alone?”

“Yeah, Dad went out with others to hunt nearby Soul Beasts, and Mom went to tend to the Spirit Fields,” Little Jiang nodded earnestly to Lin Qian.

After looking at Little Jiang and the Fire Pot that he had modified in his hands, Lin Qian suddenly thought of something and said, “Little Jiang, can I take a look at your house?”

“Of course, you can!” Seeing Lin Qian say this, Little Jiang nodded vigorously, pulling him into his own house.

The land within the settlement was also limited, so the house was not very big, just a small hall and a small room constituted everything.

After carefully observing the situation inside the house and noticing Little Jiang’s fixed gaze on the object in his hand, Lin Qian laughed, “What, want to know how to use this?”

“Yes!” Little Jiang nodded vehemently, his eyes filled with anticipation at the beautiful item in Lin Qian’s hands.

Lin Qian shook the item before Little Jiang, then threw it high into the air— the object in his hand already colliding with the roof.

However, the crystalline surface of the modified Fire Fruit in Lin Qian’s hand, upon touching the beam, stuck firmly in place, its emitted light was noticeably much brighter.

“Wow!” Little Jiang looked at everything before him and immediately exclaimed in astonishment. The warm light brightened the entire interior of the house as if the whole place had come to life, eliciting continuous amazed exclamations from him.

Seeing the result before him, Lin Qian felt extremely satisfied. He was very much looking forward to a night in the Huaxia Empire being as bustling as ever—eager to behold the day when thousands of homes in the Huaxia Empire would be alight with lights.
