Chapter 2881  Sky City's New Strength!

Worship involved both protection and provision.

After accepting their provision, he also needed to take up the responsibility of protecting Treasure City.

Lin Yuan had already decided to build his team in Treasure City. The Purple Feather Rain Pigeons were already under his control. Apart from the Purple Feather Rain Pigeons, which functioned as a force working from the shadows, Lin Yuan was also linked to Fortune Treasure Palace.

With these two channels in Treasure City that he could tap into, Lin Yuan did not mind leaving another channel in the city that he could use to receive offerings.

However, Lin Yuan also wanted to see what kind of offerings Li Feng would give him.

Lin Yuan did not feel any bond to Treasure City. He saved it because it was part of him reaching his own goal. If Lin Yuan truly became Treasure City's guardian, he would definitely invest more effort into Treasure City.

"City Lord Li, from my angle, it seems that gaining more guardians will indeed be a way of helping Treasure City. You want to invite me to become Treasure City's guardian. What do I need to do for Treasure City? What will Treasure City offer me in return?"

Li Feng was afraid that Lin Yuan would turn him down without hesitation. He was not worried that Lin Yuan would negotiate terms with him. Rather, he looked forward to it.

Lin Yuan's desires shone through clearly when he was negotiating. It meant that he would only become more invested in Treasure City from now on.

Li Feng laid out his requests seriously, "Young Master Lin, Treasure City has never had a guardian before. If you are willing to become Treasure City's guardian, you'll be the first! This role won't require you to do much normally. You only need to help Treasure City when Treasure City is in danger. This incident was sudden. I don't know the reason for this situation, but I don't think that Treasure City will ever be in such a crisis again!"

Li Feng did not know the reason for this crisis, but Lin Yuan was fully aware.

It was likely that one of the chambers of commerce in the city had accidentally taken the Nine-Headed Snake egg. Alternatively, one of the factions who had come to Treasure City for the Treasure Convention had brought the egg to the city to trade during the Treasure Convention. The probability of such an accidental event was very low.

Treasure City was part of the Sky Beyond the Clouds that was under Honor Absent Palace's jurisdiction. As such, the probability of Treasure City being endangered was very low.

"As Treasure City's guardian, I will have to protect Treasure City when it's in danger. What will Treasure City bring me?"

Lin Yuan did not shoot him down after hearing the responsibilities that came with being Treasure City's guardian. This meant that Lin Yuan could accept this responsibility.

Li Feng had been thinking about the resources they could provide for the past few days. He now had an idea for a response.

"Young Master Lin, to be honest, I made a mistake with Treasure City's development. I can face that mistake now. Treasure City's defensive power is much weaker than that of other cities. From now on, I will be pivoting the direction of Treasure City's development.

"I won't be focusing all of Treasure City's resources completely on the development of finances. This will cause Treasure City's revenue to fall from its usual quantity. I will provide you with 2.5% of Treasure City's revenue periodically as compensation for your assistance."

For a grand and giant city like Treasure City, 2.5% of the profits represented an unimaginable amount of resources!

Li Feng's sincerity was evident from his willingness to give Lin Yuan all those resources.

Truthfully, Li Feng only intended to give Lin Yuan 1.5% of Treasure City's revenue at first. He increased it to 2.5% because he did not want any issues to crop up, with Lin Yuan being Treasure City's guardian.

Lin Yuan was silently surprised by Li Feng's determination. He was actually willing to give him 2.5% of the revenue.

However, Lin Yuan did not need any Honor Absent dollars. He could get his hands on resources like pure spirit qi and other elemental resources easily.

What Lin Yuan really needed were spiritual ingredients and feys with special effects.

Li Feng became anxious when he saw that Lin Yuan had yet to respond, thinking, Does he think that this amount of resources is too little? But 2.5% of Treasure City's revenue is the maximum that I can promise.

Despite being the City Lord of Treasure City, Li Feng could not be casual when it came to the utilization of resources. Li Feng's utilization of Treasure City's resources was audited by Honor Absent Palace's envoys. If Lin Yuan wanted more and Li Feng was unable to meet his demands, Lin Yuan and Treasure City's relationship would come to an end there.

Li Feng hurriedly began explaining, "Young Master Lin, I want to change Treasure City's development direction, but the city's net income won't be changing much. I hope you will give Treasure City this chance!"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "City Lord Li, given your sincerity, I also think that I am fated with Treasure City. I can become Treasure City's guardian, but I have a request. I would like the 2.5% of revenue to be in the form of spiritual ingredients and feys! I will send people to select the spiritual ingredients and feys when the time comes." Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Li Feng immediately agreed.

It made no difference to Li Feng whether he compensated Lin Yuan in Honor Absent dollars or resources and feys. Rather, giving Lin Yuan spiritual ingredients and feys would save Li Feng the trouble of exchanging the spiritual ingredients and feys into Honor Absent dollars.

"Of course, that won't be a problem! If you agree, you will become Treasure City's first guardian! I will make the arrangements now for someone to create a token. May I ask what your name is so I can engrave it on the waist token?"

Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow and told his name to Li Feng.

"My name is Lin Yuan. City Lord Li, I think that there's more to the star pirates' planned siege of Treasure City than meets the eye. I think they were trying to look for something here! I hope that you will lead the City Guards and factions of Treasure City to do a sweep. I will also send two of my subordinates to go with the City Guards to see if they can discover anything!"

When Li Feng heard that, he knew that Lin Yuan had to know something. However, Lin Yuan did not share what he had discovered.

Now that Lin Yuan was Treasure City's guardian, he would be receiving offerings from Treasure City. There was no reason for him to do anything that harmed Treasure City.

Lin Yuan was the one who saved the entire Treasure City. If the two void passageways had not been punctured by the ice mountains, followed by the Abyssal Beasts being destroyed by the river of ice, Treasure City would already have been leveled by the attacking Abyssal Beasts.

"Young Master Lin, I will go and send out an announcement as the City Lord. Once your people arrive, I will send the City Guards to investigate immediately."

Li Feng held his fists in front of him and bowed to Lin Yuan before leaving to make the arrangements. It was his turn to be busy.

Lin Yuan told Li Feng to do this because he wanted to find the Nine-Headed Snake offspring. The best people to search for it were Liu Yao and Liu Chen.

Winter had already taken control of the two devil groups and would be meeting up with Lin Yuan soon.

Lin Yuan intended to take in Liu Yao and Liu Chen to strengthen his arsenal.

The frost that emanated from Winter's body could freeze the soul, spirit, mind, thoughts, and consciousness in a second, leaving entities suspended in animation. Hence, when Winter thawed out Liu Yao and Liu Chen, they would be in a state of combativeness toward him.

The frost from within Winter continued to freeze Liu Yao and Liu Chen's bodies but released their thoughts, spirits, and souls.

"The two of you shouldn't struggle futilely. My Young Master needs to speak to you. If you dare to act recklessly, I don't mind sending you down the same path that the Abyssal Beasts went."

Liu Chen and Liu Yao focused their attention on Lin Yuan next to Winter. Both of them could sense that Lin Yuan's power was weak.

However, Winter's words expressed Lin Yuan's position. If possible, Liu Yao and Liu Chen hoped to continue living.

But at the thought of their offspring being in Treasure City, both of them once again resolved to find their offspring.

They had been a couple for thousands of years. They were considered lucky to be able to have a child at this age. Both of them felt that they had been blessed.

The stronger the Nine-Headed Snake, the lower their chances of bearing offspring. Moreover, it cost female Nine-Headed Snakes a significant amount of energy to bear a single egg, and they could not bear any more in the future.

If they lost this offspring, Liu Yao and Liu Chen would probably never be able to have another child in their lifetime.

Liu Chen retracted his sharp aura and told Lin Yuan in a humble and amicable tone, "We come from the Moon Mist Swamp. We came here because we were afraid of other Nine-Headed Snakes stealing our child. If you want anything, just let us know. All we want is the chance to search for our child so our family can be reunited! Our child will be hatching soon and will urgently require us to inject our energy into it to feed it."

Liu Chen's power exceeded the Holy Spirit level, yet he was acting in such a humble manner toward Lin Yuan. This touched Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan said seriously, "Before you join me, your survival has nothing to do with me. If you're willing to join me and become my subordinates, it goes without saying that I'll make sure that your family is reunited!

"I won't give you much time to think it over. You are the most aware of the Nine-Headed Snakes' nature. If your offspring hatches while you're thinking, the one who picked up the egg will find out that there was a Nine-Headed Snake in the egg.

"I'm sure you can imagine what comes after. Your child will definitely be hidden away. If they don't receive energy, they will become weak. Even if they survive, they won't be able to grow well!"

Lin Yuan thought that taking over this Nine-Headed Snake couple would require considerable effort. Yet, they accepted his request easily.

"Lord, we're willing to join you. I hope you will promise to help find our offspring!"

Liu Yao and Liu Chen were both level-headed and knew that power ruled above all else in the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

Firstly, this young man had taken control of them easily. They were completely incapable of fighting back. Thus, they had no authority to speak, much less reject his request.

Additionally, Liu Yao and Liu Chen could both tell that Lin Yuan was far from ordinary. It would benefit them to join someone of this caliber. It was possible that doing so would also benefit their child's future.

Lastly, they knew that they stood virtually no chance of finding their offspring if they did not have Lin Yuan's approval.

Liu Yao and Liu Chen's direct acceptance of becoming Lin Yuan's subordinate saved Lin Yuan a lot of trouble.

However, Lin Yuan was still unsure about how to take control and gain the loyalty of experts like Liu Yao and Liu Chen, who were above the Holy Spirit level.

Winter guessed what Lin Yuan was thinking and said seriously, "Young Master, there is already a holy spirit living in your divine kingdom. As long as you have your holy spirit, you will be able to take control of another party's holy spirit. The loyalty of even Holy Spirit experts is assured when their holy spirits are under your control."

Lin Yuan relaxed when he heard what Spring said, while Liu Yao and Liu Chen looked at him in surprise.

The two of them could tell that he was less than 50 years old. They were also sure that his background was far from normal.

It was astonishing that a lifeform less than 50 years old had such an expert following him!

They never expected Lin Yuan's divine kingdom to already have a holy spirit living in it.

Did Holy Spirit experts who were younger than 50 years old truly exist in this world?

The speed at which a lifeform increased their power, as well as the limit of their power, was linked to their bloodline.

The Nine-Headed Snakes were a species from legend, and their bloodline was sufficiently strong. But compared to this young man's bloodline, the Nine-Headed Snake bloodline seemed insignificant!

Just what species had a bloodline like this that allowed him to attain such power at such an age?

While Lin Yuan was taking control of Liu Chen and Liu Yao, he noticed that both of them only had one holy spirit in their divine kingdoms.

But Lin Yuan's divine kingdom already had two holy spirits. If he wanted to, there could be even more!

Liu Yao and Liu Chen were not the only Holy Spirit experts Lin Yuan had interacted with. The other Holy Spirit experts he had interacted with also only had one holy spirit in their divine kingdoms.

This caused Lin Yuan to suddenly wonder if it was actually the norm for Holy Spirit experts to have only one holy spirit in their divine kingdoms.
