Chapter 3030 Sun Yin"s Epiphany!
In any case, Lin Yuan had Sun Yin in his grasp.
Sun Yin had never interacted with Lin Yuan before and he had never offended him.
Lin Yuan"s actions were equivalent to forcing Sun Yin, making him look like a villain.
Lin Yuan had never done such a thing in the main world.
In fact, in an environment where the law of the jungle prevailed, there was no need for Lin Yuan to stick to the bottom line of his previous life. In a place like the Sky Beyond the Clouds, where the environment was even harsher, Lin Yuan naturally changed.
Lin Yuan looked at the six Grade 5 Creators and the 32 Grade 4 Creators under his command and said solemnly, "Since everyone has joined me and become a member of Sky City, as Creators with endless lifespans, you will definitely be able to achieve new breakthroughs in the future. In the future, be it in terms of improving the abilities of Creators or resources, I will provide them for you. I hope you can work for me well."
All the Creators present were actually waiting for Lin Yuan"s promise. Since Lin Yuan had given Si Xue such good benefits, there was no reason for him not to give them some as well.
Lin Yuan"s words were equivalent to a bowl of water for the Creators who had submitted to him.
After these Grade 5 Creators joined Lin Yuan, they used his words to express their loyalty to him.
While these Grade 5 Creators were expressing their loyalty to Lin Yuan, the other Grade 4 Creators had no chance to speak.
Twenty minutes had pa.s.sed while everyone was talking.
In these 20 minutes, Sun Yin struggled violently. In the end, he supported his old body and knelt on the ground. He placed his forehead heavily on the ground and used his actions to express his att.i.tude.
Lin Yuan was somewhat surprised to see Sun Yin prostrating on the ground. Lin Yuan was not surprised that Sun Yin would submit to him, but he was surprised that Sun Yin had taken such a long time. It seemed that Sun Yin was more stubborn than he had expected.
Even so, due to the circ.u.mstances, Sun Yin still became one of his subordinates.
Lin Yuan was not afraid that Sun Yin would resent him because of his dissatisfaction.
Firstly, Lin Yuan would have complete control over Sun Yin and would not give him such an opportunity.
Secondly, the fact that Sun Yin could make such a choice meant that he wanted to live more than die.
It was not easy for him to obtain the chance to live and obtain an endless lifespan. Sun Yin was destined to be even more unwilling to die.
An old, helpless, and fearful voice sounded in Lin Yuan"s ears, "Lord, I was blind previously. I hope you can give me a chance to work under you. From now on, I will pledge all my loyalty to you. I will never have any disloyal thoughts!"
After saying that, Sun Yin touched the ground with his forehead again. Sun Yin, who had his forehead on the ground, could already feel that his lifespan was completely exhausted. It was very likely that if he had agreed a second later, he would have died.
Sun Yin anxiously needed to plead with Lin Yuan.
Zhuo Yan stood beside Lin Yuan and looked at Sun Yin. She felt a little upset, and she had the thought of pleading on Sun Yin"s behalf.
In Zhuo Yan"s opinion, Sun Yin did not do anything overboard to Lin Yuan. It was just that when Lin Yuan wanted to take these Creators under his wing, Sun Yin raised his doubts.
Now, Sun Yin was willing to join Lin Yuan. Regardless of whether Lin Yuan knew about Sun Yin"s talent, a living Grade 5 Creator was more valuable than a dead one.
At that moment, Sun Yin"s lifespan had been drained by the two leaves in an unknown manner, causing his lifespan to be exhausted.
Even if the lifespan that was extracted could not be returned to Sun Yin, as long as Sun Yin contracted the Lifespan Mouse, he could continue to live.
Sun Yin had a good relations.h.i.+p with him to begin with. However, Sun Yin was more or less wary of others.
Although they were close, there was still a barrier between them, unlike the sincere relations.h.i.+p between Yi He and Si Xue.
If she could help Sun Yin plead for leniency now, Sun Yin would definitely thank her after Lin Yuan decided to take her under her wing.
Apart from having her own plans, Zhuo Yan did not want Sun Yin, her extremely talented friend, to die.
Zhuo Yan said tentatively, "Lord Lin Yuan, Sun Yin was just confused just now. Now that he has figured it out, I hope you can give him a chance. To be honest, Sun Yin"s talent should be the strongest among all of us here!"
After saying that, Zhuo Yan bent down and put on a pleading posture.
Zhuo Yan"s posture was not only for Lin Yuan, but also for Sun Yin.
Lin Yuan chuckled and said, "I remember that your name is Zhuo Yan, right? Since you"ve asked, I"m willing to give you respect."
Lin Yuan waved his hand gently, and the two leaves immediately returned to Sun Yin"s body.
Time was basically stuck at the moment when Sun Yin"s lifespan was about to end.
The moment the two leaves returned to their withered state and left Sun Yin"s body, the lifespan that was absorbed in Sun Yin"s body was replenished. Sun Yin returned to his original young state.
In his original healthy state, Sun Yin did not feel that his body condition was that rare. However, after sensing the weakness of his lifespan, Sun Yin completely understood how important health was. Sun Yin personally experienced the importance of lifespan to a life.
After understanding this, Sun Yin entered a mysterious state of epiphany.
Lin Yuan immediately fell silent. He was a little surprised that Sun Yin would have an epiphany at such a time. What a powerful comprehension ability!
Comprehension was extremely important to a Creator. Every epiphany would increase their Creator abilities to a certain extent.
All the Creators present looked at Sun Yin enviously. It was too rare to enter such a state of epiphany. Some Creators might not be able to enter such a state for the rest of their lives.
The Creators present restrained their auras to prevent their auras from leaking out and affecting Sun Yin.
There were indeed a few Cla.s.s 5 Creators present who did not have a good relations.h.i.+p with Sun Yin, including Si Xue.
However, no one dared to use any methods to interrupt Sun Yin"s epiphany. Sun Yin was now one of Lin Yuan"s subordinates and Sun Yin"s potential was equivalent to a portion of Lin Yuan"s a.s.sets. If someone interrupted Sun Yin"s epiphany and harmed Lin Yuan"s interests, how could Lin Yuan let this go?
Five hours later, Sun Yin recovered from his epiphany. If Sun Yin had submitted to Lin Yuan because he had no choice, then he had lowered his head and knelt on the ground because he had no choice but to think of a way to survive.
Now, Sun Yin was sincerely thanking Lin Yuan.
"Lord Lin Yuan, thank you for giving me an excellent opportunity to have an epiphany and being willing to create an epiphany environment for me. I"ve gained a lot from this epiphany. It"s now more convenient for me to serve you!"
After saying that, Sun Yin prepared to prostrate himself on the ground again to express his grat.i.tude to Lin Yuan.
It was usually the hardest for a person to overcome the hurdle in their heart when they bent down for the first time. However, after bending down once, they would not have so many worries.
Lin Yuan took a step forward and pulled Sun Yin up from the ground.
"Previously, when you were unwilling to join Sky City, I had to use some tricks on you. I think you should be able to understand this! After all, I have to ensure that the information does not leak out."
When Sun Yin heard Lin Yuan"s words, he could not help but s.h.i.+ver. Lin Yuan"s words were equivalent to telling Sun Yin that if he was unwilling to submit, he would indeed die.
Just as Sun Yin was about to express his loyalty to Lin Yuan again, he heard Lin Yuan say, "I heard from them that you are the most talented among all the Creators present. I wonder if you agree with this statement?"
Sun Yin looked gratefully at Zhuo Yan, who had just pleaded for him. After this glance, Zhuo Yan and Sun Yin had already gone through life and death together.
Sun Yin replied proudly to Lin Yuan"s question, "Lord Lin Yuan, I am indeed the youngest among all the Creators present. With my age, it is not impossible for me to become a Grade 6 Creator"s subordinate."
When he talked about his talent, Sun Yin could not help but reveal a condescending att.i.tude. Sun Yin had always been proud of his talent.
Sun Yin felt that there was really no need for him to be too humble in front of Lin Yuan. The more he displayed his strength, the more Lin Yuan would value him.
Lin Yuan raised his eyebrows. It was a good thing that Sun Yin"s talent was so powerful.
Lin Yuan actually did not have much of a concept of talents that could be recruited by a Grade 6 Creator.
Lin Yuan had actually intended to choose a Creator with the strongest potential to nurture. Now, it seemed that Sun Yin was the most suitable one.
"In that case, follow me from now on. I need a Grade 5 Creator by my side."
Lin Yuan raised his hand and handed a Lifespan Mouse to Sun Yin, indicating that he could contract it directly.
When Sun Yin heard that Lin Yuan wanted him to follow him, he could not help but feel excited.
Since he had already decided to join Sky City, he would undoubtedly be able to obtain the most benefits and resources by following Lin Yuan.
This was different from the treatment of other Creators.
Now that Lin Yuan had placed the opportunity in front of him, he definitely had to cherish it.
Sun Yin immediately contracted the Lifespan Mouse before giving it back to Lin Yuan and saying seriously, "My Lord, it"s my honor to be by your side. I"ll definitely improve my ability as soon as possible to share your burdens!"
Lin Yuan did not hide his preferential treatment of Sun Yin at all.
Everyone had thought that Lin Yuan might make Sun Yin suffer because he was dissatisfied with Sun Yin"s previous att.i.tude. They did not expect Lin Yuan to place Sun Yin in such an important position.
Firstly, no one dared to question Lin Yuan"s actions. Secondly, they knew that their talents could not be compared to Sun Yin"s.
The person Lin Yuan kept by his side would definitely be the most talented Creator.
Even though Sun Yin"s Creator abilities were not the strongest, he was definitely the one with the most potential.
Yi He looked at Sun Yin with a complicated expression. He could sense how much Lin Yuan valued Sun Yin.
Lin Yuan keeping Sun Yin by his side instead of placing him in Sky City"s Creator"s team was a good thing for Yi He.
Yi He knew very well that Sun Yin would run ahead of him sooner or later. With Sun Yin"s talent, he would not be able to form a compet.i.tive relations.h.i.+p with Sun Yin.
If he allowed Sun Yin to stay in this group, he would be in an extremely awkward position as the deputy team leader.
With Sun Yin by Lin Yuan"s side, the pressure on him would be much less as he was not in the group.
Lin Yuan took over Sun Yin"s Lifespan Mouse and controlled Sun Yin"s holy spirit. Then, he looked at all the Creators under his command and said, "I know that freedom is very important to you. I have no intention of restricting your freedom by taking you in as my subordinates. Therefore, I"ll give you a choice. You can decide whether you want to follow me back to Sky City or return to your own living environment. Enjoy your transcendent status as freely as you used to."
All the Creators present were stunned when they heard Lin Yuan"s words. They had never thought that Lin Yuan would give them their freedom.
However, Lin Yuan did not finish his sentence.
There was definitely a difference between choosing to return to their original living environment and obediently submitting to Lin Yuan.
No one present was in a hurry to make a statement. Instead, they waited for Lin Yuan to continue.
Lin Yuan promised to give Grade 6 Creator resources. Under such circ.u.mstances, no one would not be tempted by Grade 6 Creator resources.
Most of these Grade 6 Creator resources could only be obtained by people who followed Lin Yuan to Sky City.
After being chosen by Lin Yuan to stay by his side, Sun Yin had lost the right to make decisions.
Sun Yin had suffered so much previously because he was fighting for his freedom from Lin Yuan.
In the end, Lin Yuan did not intend to control them at all. However, his suffering was not in vain.
If not for the torture, he would not have been able to enter a state of epiphany to understand the essential relations.h.i.+p between lifespan and life.
Seeing that no one reacted immediately, Lin Yuan continued after a while. "All of you have invested in Sky City so you are now a part of Sky City. I will not exploit your benefits. You can rest a.s.sured about this! Even if you return to your original environment, I don"t need you to contribute anything. You only need to provide a portion of Creator resources to Sky City on a regular basis.
"I will use the pure spirit qi to exchange for these Creator resources. When the time comes, it will be convenient for you to befriend more Creators outside. You can find an opportunity to lure these Creators into Sky City! Every time a Creator above Grade 4 is brought into Sky City, you will receive a certain amount of merit. When the time comes, you can use these merits to exchange for Grade 6 Creator resources."
