Chapter 3073 The Feeling of Being Protected!
However, compared to Lin Yuan"s ident.i.ty, everyone was more concerned about the Grade 5 Creator who was presiding over Traveling Dragon Palace.
Since Traveling Dragon Palace had made this Grade 5 Creator famous, they would most likely show up later.
Among the present factions, those with power were interested in establis.h.i.+ng connections with this Grade 5 Creator. On the other hand, those without power were motivated by the idea of admiring the charisma of this Grade 5 Creator. Indeed, even witnessing their charisma would be worthwhile.
"Brother Lin, are you here to meet this Grade 5 Creator of Traveling Dragon Palace or to exchange resources here?"
Lin Yuan smiled and said, "I"m not very interested in this Grade 5 Creator from Traveling Dragon Palace. Compared to this Grade 5 Creator, I"m more interested in the foundational resources that Traveling Dragon Palace is selling. I have plans to acquire all of these blessed lands."
To others, Lin Yuan"s words would likely come off as boastful and insincere, as who wouldn"t want to make connections with a Grade 5 Creator in this world?
However, Lin Yuan maintained such an att.i.tude toward Grade 5 Creators. Moreover, with so many factions present, Lin Yuan actually expressed his intentions to acquire all the blessed lands.
Lin Yuan"s words sounded very pretentious, but Zhao Chen was extremely convinced by them.
Zhao Chen was well aware of Lin Yuan"s power and foundation. Since Lin Yuan could easily dispatch a Grade 5 Creator, he naturally wouldn"t be too interested in this Grade 5 Creator from Traveling Dragon Palace as he did not lack Grade 5 Creator resources at all.
When You Di revealed the ident.i.ty of this Grade 5 Creator, he did not emphasize the level of this Grade 5 Creator. Most likely, the Grade 5 Creator from Traveling Dragon Palace was a beginner Grade 5 Creator.
"Brother Lin, there are many factions here who have their eyes on these blessed lands. At that time, you will have to compete with other factions and spend a lot of resources to outbid them."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan replied indifferently, "I don"t mind investing these resources. With Creators in place, the Creator resources can be obtained endlessly. Acquiring the blessed lands is all that matters!"
Traveling Dragon Palace was now a faction supported by Lin Yuan. No matter how much Lin Yuan spent to obtain these blessed lands from Traveling Dragon Palace, he wouldn"t suffer any losses.
Since Lin Yuan already planned to invest resources into Traveling Dragon Palace, even if the final transaction price negotiated by other factions was higher, it wouldn"t have any impact on Lin Yuan.
As soon as Lin Yuan arrived at Traveling Dragon Palace, Sun Yin noticed Lin Yuan and asked for instructions. Lin Yuan gestured for Sun Yin to act on his own and not ask for his opinion.
Sun Yin had previously appeared in Diverse City, so it was inevitable that some people would recognize him when he appeared in the public building this time.
The fact that a Creator like Sun Yin, who had previously appeared in Diverse City, had suddenly become a guest of Traveling Dragon Palace was unlikely to arouse the suspicion of the various factions.
Upon hearing Lin Yuan"s words, Zhao Chen looked envious. Given Zhao Chen"s background, he rarely envied others. However, Zhao Chen was indeed envious of Lin Yuan now.
Among all the people Zhao Chen knew, Lin Yuan was the most generous. Zhao Chen had also interacted with disciples of secret elite families whose power far exceeded his own.
While they may behave arrogantly, none of them treated Creator resources with the same indifference and used Grade 4 Creator resources as recklessly as Lin Yuan.
If Lin Yuan were to use Grade 4 Creator resources as he did when bidding for talents, there wouldn"t be any faction in Diverse City qualified to compete with him.
Zhao Chen would not let go of any opportunity to please Lin Yuan.
"Brother Lin, I have some connections with Traveling Dragon Palace. I wonder if you"re interested in meeting the new guardian of Traveling Dragon Palace after the trading session ends? If you have such thoughts, I can help introduce you!"
Zhao Chen"s main reason for saying this to Lin Yuan was to hopefully have Lin Yuan owe him a favor.
Lin Yuan wasn"t accustomed to casually owing people favors, and he also didn"t see the need to meet with Sun Yin, who was one of his subordinates. There was a high chance that Sun Yin might reveal a flaw in his att.i.tude during their encounter and thus revealed the depth of their relations.h.i.+p to others. For Lin Yuan, this situation would bring him no benefits and leave him owing Zhao Chen a favor for no reason.
"Brother Zhao, I don"t plan to stay in Diverse City for too long. so I won"t be getting acquainted with this guardian of Traveling Dragon Palace anymore. After I leave Diverse City, I won"t have much chance to interact with this Grade 5 Creator.
"However, when the Grade 5 Creator I dispatch to Diverse City arrives, I can arrange for her to interact with Traveling Dragon Palace. Perhaps, the two of them can form a good friends.h.i.+p."
Grade 5 Creators were typically very arrogant. If they did not feel that the other party had a status that was comparable to theirs, they wouldn"t even consider the idea of forming any sort of relations.h.i.+p with the other party.
Zhuo Yan and Sun Yin had a good relations.h.i.+p, so when Zhuo Yan arrived in Diverse City, they were bound to interact with each other. By mentioning it now, even if it was observed that Zhuo Yan and Sun Yin interact, it wouldn"t seem strange.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Chen couldn"t help but feel a bit disappointed, realizing that he couldn"t fulfill his intention of extending a favor to Lin Yuan. It was too difficult to get a favor from Lin Yuan.
Based on Zhao Chen"s understanding of Grade 5 Creators, they were indeed as arrogant as Lin Yuan had said.
Zhao Chen planned to meet this Grade 5 Creator of Traveling Dragon Palace through Sun Yin, but he was not certain that this Grade 5 Creator would even pay attention to him.
However, since he had the chance to meet a Grade 5 Creator, Zhao Chen would not give up no matter what. Befriending another Grade 5 Creator would give him a channel to obtain Grade 5 Creators" resources. It would be enough for him to go further along the path to success in the future.
During Zhao Chen"s conversation with Lin Yuan, the entire room suddenly fell silent, and Lin Yuan looked up to see You Di stepping forward.
You Di walked in front with an extremely humble posture while Sun Yin followed behind him.
With the way You Di, the Second Palace Master of the Traveling Dragon Palace, was treating this person, it was obvious who this person was.
Without waiting for You Di to introduce himself, Sun Yin said loudly, "Everyone, your presence at the trading event held at Traveling Dragon Palace is a great honor for us. Allow me to express my grat.i.tude to each of you for gracing this occasion with your presence. Thank you all for your willingness to attend and support this event.
"In order to express our grat.i.tude, we will auction off 20 more pills that I personally refined at the end of this trade fair. Each of these pills has a different effect. I hope that they can be of practical help to everyone during the process of increasing your strength!"
Sun Yin"s words caused many people to gasp. At the same time, Zhao Chen"s face revealed a surprised expression. Zhao Chen thought that Traveling Dragon Palace had somehow gotten a Grade 5 Creator and paid a huge price to invite him to stand up for them. However now, it seemed that that was not the case.
This Grade 5 Creator was sincerely helping Traveling Dragon Palace. He was even willing to use Grade 5 Creator resources to help Traveling Dragon Palace.
Many factions in Diverse City had intentions of attacking Traveling Dragon Palace. However, after the Grade 5 Creator had spoken those words, it was likely that no one would dare to do so anymore.
Zhao Chen looked at the seats of Bizarre Plant Demon Hall. The expressions of the two masters of Bizarre Plant Demon Hall were exceptionally ugly.
The plan of Bizarre Plant Demon Hall to target Traveling Dragon Palace simply could not proceed any further.
Zhao Chen had already made up his mind. After this trade fair ended, he would take the initiative to suppress Bizarre Plant Demon Hall, which could be considered as doing a favor for Traveling Dragon Palace.
With this Grade 5 Creator expressing support for Traveling Dragon Palace, giving them a favor would be equivalent to giving this Grade 5 Creator a favor.
Sun Yin didn"t give You Di a heads-up before saying these words. When You Di heard Sun Yin"s statement, he was pleasantly surprised and couldn"t help but feel a sense of admiration. It felt so good to have someone protecting him!
Traveling Dragon Palace used to be a faction that was controlled by You Di and his brother, You Tao. With Traveling Dragon Palace under someone else"s control, You Di couldn"t help but feel uneasy despite knowing that Traveling Dragon Palace was controlled by a faction with a Grade 6 Creator presiding over and it was a huge opportunity for them.
However, You Di no longer had such thoughts now.
Upon sensing the att.i.tudes of the various factions present, Sun Yin could not help but reveal a look of enjoyment. Sun Yin"s biggest fear by Lin Yuan"s side was losing his freedom. However, the reality proved that being by Lin Yuan"s side not only didn"t strip him of his freedom but also granted him more opportunities.
You Di took charge of the trade fair, and while doing so, he hosted it with great enthusiasm and felt no pressure whatsoever.
Even though Traveling Dragon Palace had gotten out of their predicament, the resources that Traveling Dragon Palace had invested in Extreme Wood City had been completely wasted.
At present, Traveling Dragon Palace was facing a shortage of resources. If Traveling Dragon Palace wanted to quickly develop again, they needed to raise their resources. Obviously, these resources couldn"t be obtained by simply asking Sun Yin. Not only that, if Sun Yin stayed in Diverse City in the future, Traveling Dragon Palace would have to fork out resources to support Sun Yin.
Under You Di"s instigation, the trade fair hosted by Traveling Dragon Palace was exceptionally successful. Part of the reason for this success was that various factions were deliberately inflating prices as a gesture of goodwill toward Traveling Dragon Palace.
The other reason was that Lin Yuan"s bid was too high. As long as someone made a bid, Lin Yuan would raise the price even higher!
If not for the fact that Zhao Chen was sitting beside Lin Yuan and seemed to be very familiar with him, You Di would not be able to help but wonder if Lin Yuan would be able to afford such a crazy bid.
Although it was difficult to find a blessed land and opportunities were needed to obtain one, it was not to the extent of overpricing all the low-grade and mid-grade blessed lands.
It was worth noting that the bidding conditions for the blessed lands of Traveling Dragon Palace required the use of resources from Grade 3 Creators or higher and bidding with Honor Absent dollars was not allowed.
Sun Yin saw the doubt in You Di"s eyes as Lin Yuan continued to bid. He wondered what You Di"s expression would be if he knew that Lin Yuan was the one who had taken Traveling Dragon Palace under his wing.
As Lin Yuan did not want to appear in public, Sun Yin did not reveal Lin Yuan"s ident.i.ty to You Di.
After completing the trading fair, Lin Yuan chose not to remain in Diverse City. Instead, Sun Yin was temporarily left behind in Diverse City by Lin Yuan. He would help Lin Yuan deal with the remaining matters in Diverse City.
Lin Yuan had a large number of talents that he had purchased. He planned to bring these talents to the North of the Lonely River and put them to use as soon as possible.
Lin Yuan met up with Ling Muzhuo, who had come to Diverse City after the trade fair. Ling Muzhuo wanted to invite Lin Yuan to travel in the North Universe, but Lin Yuan rejected him.
Lin Yuan, who had not developed well in the East Universe, did not want to take such a big step.
At the moment, it was most important to focus on developing in the East Universe!
Moreover, Lin Yuan had been away for such a long time that the Astronomical Parliament had been delayed.
Lin Yuan was in a hurry to return to Sky City to hold the next Astronomical Parliament meeting. The three members who had just joined the Astronomical Parliament, be it Jing Bai, Zhou Yu, or Ru Yi, had already experienced earth-shattering changes in their lives.
The three of them had fulfilled their wishes by joining the Astronomical Parliament.
Jing Bai had already become the actual controller of the Purifying Water Illusion Snakes. As Kong Huan had firmly controlled a Snow-Covered Fox Sir through his emotions, the status of the Alluring Foxes had greatly increased among the members of the Snow-Covered Foxes.
Kong Huan"s ability to a.s.sist Jing Bai has been increasing steadily. The first thing Jing Bai did after controlling the Purifying Water Illusion Snakes was to develop and increase the overall strength of the younger generation.
Members of the Snow-Covered Fox had the ability to transform individuals from other species outside the fox species into members of their own species.
In order to allow the Purifying Water Illusion Snakes to better survive in the territory of the Snow-Covered Foxes, Jing Bai discussed with Kong Huan to make the Purifying Water Illusion Snakes as a dependent species of the Alluring Foxes.
Kong Huan valued the potential of the Purifying Water Illusion Snakes and was willing to do Jing Bai a favor.
Every time Lin Yuan communicated with her, he would ask about Jing Bai"s situation, which meant that he cared about him a lot.
Hence, Kong Huan was very willing to extend this favor to Jing Bai.
After the Purifying Water Illusion Snakes became a dependent species of the Alluring Foxes, they could be considered to have completely integrated into the territory of the Snow-Covered Foxes. They would even have the opportunity to engage in trade with other dependent species of the Snow-Covered Foxes within their territory.
Out of respect for the Alluring Foxes" reputation, other dependent species of the Snow-Covered Foxes refrained from taking advantage of the Purifying Water Illusion Snakes during their trading cooperation. This allowed the Purifying Water Illusion Snakes to develop rapidly.
Although Jing Bai was young, he was extremely talented in the ways of the world. Jing Bai gave a large portion of the resources obtained from the Purifying Water Illusion Snakes to the Alluring Foxes, who were not good at trade.
This was not only to express his grat.i.tude to Kong Huan but also to let her introduce more trading channels to the Purifying Water Illusion Snakes so that both sides could achieve a win-win situation.
Kong Huan"s greatest fear was that despite doing so much for Jing Bai and investing her own resources to support him, Jing Bai would show no grat.i.tude or reciprocation. This was undoubtedly something that Kong Huan was unwilling to accept.
