Chapter 1346: Handsome Reward and Heavy Punishment

Lin Yuan shook his head and said to Liu Jie, “Big Brother Liu, do you remember the Vein Land Imp?”

Liu Jie was momentarily stunned when he heard what Lin Yuan said. When he thought about the amazing way that Lin Yuan had subjugated the Vein Land Imp, he immediately understood what Lin Yuan meant.

Liu Jie’s eyes lit up as he said, “I’ll go to the guild clubs immediately when we return to put up a job offer to catch Land Imps. The dimensional rift’s active period has only just ended, and the price of dimensional lifeforms is at an all-time low. Not long ago, I saw that the Snail-Clawed Snail, which used to cost 800,000 Radiance dollars, now goes for only 200,000 Radiance dollars. Even those high-quality ones only cost 350,000.”

Lin Yuan stretched and replied, “I will have to trouble you for this matter, Big Brother Liu. Let’s go. We will head to Raging Waves City first to see if our collecting of the large whale fall affected them. Then, we’ll return to the Royal Capital.”

The Kill Food Sky Butterfly returned to its original form when it heard what Lin Yuan said.

At that moment, the Kill Food Sky Butterfly suddenly thought about what White Speak had done to Silver Umber Black.

Some time had passed since Silver Umber Black had entered the Jeweled Cave Golden Toad. If Lin Yuan did not let Silver Umber Black out soon, Silver Umber Black would be scared to death by White Speak even if White Speak did not hurt it.

Silver Umber Black was useful to Lin Yuan, and it would do no good to allow it to be scared to death by White Speak.

The Kill Food Sky Butterfly decided to remind Lin Yuan, who scratched his head awkwardly.

Lin Yuan had been so focused on Sky City’s expansion that he had completely forgotten about Silver Umber Black. If the Kill Food Sky Butterfly had not reminded him, he would have brought it to the Royal Capital.

Thus, Lin Yuan opened the Jeweled Cave Golden Toad and let White Speak, Silver Umber Black, and the two sea-king experts out.

White Speak bowed respectfully to Lin Yuan and said, “Lord, I have offered suitable compensation and apologized. In order to prevent this smelly fish from insulting you, I gave it a friendly lesson on how to speak and act in front of you.”

White Speak narrowed its eyes at Silver Umber Black, and the latter immediately fell to its knees in front of Lin Yuan with terror as it greeted him non-stop.

Lin Yuan walked over to Silver Umber Black and said softly, “Everything is fine now that White Speak apologized to you. I wanted you and White Speak to communicate in order to build your friendship. It’s best if you’re not constantly on guard with each other when you’re working under me. I will ask you again. Are you sure that you want to become my servant?”

Silver Umber Black became even more terrified by Lin Yuan’s cold tone. It dared not to rebuke him.

It had been impressed by Lin Yuan’s countenance when it first laid eyes on him. Everything about Lin Yuan, from his features to his aura, was adored by Silver Umber Black.

But now, Silver Umber Black was terror-stricken by Lin Yuan’s affection.

White Speak was Silver Umber Black’s nightmare, and White Speak worked for Lin Yuan. A master collected servants that had the same character as them.

Lin Yuan appeared to be an innocuous bright young man, but he was definitely scarier than White Speak. Nonetheless, White Speak had conditioned Silver Umber Black to the point that Silver Umber Black knew not to say anything against him.

Silver Umber Black hurriedly said, “Lord, I, Silver Umber Black will start serving you from today and listen to your every command. I no longer live for the sea of the First Emperor Cutlass Clan. I belong to only you.”

Lin Yuan did not know what Silver Umber Black was speaking, nor did he know that White Speak had caused him to take on such a huge burden. But he would not mind even if he knew.

“If this is the case, I want you to swear on your Immortal body. Once you’re done, return to the sea and organize all of your and Shark Awn’s resources. Shark Awn is dead, and its territory is the closest to yours. Try to gather all the resources before the members of royalty from the Radiance Federation come to find you. Once they come to see you, come see me in the Royal Capital.”

Silver Umber Black’s eyes lit up.

Doesn’t this mean that I won’t have to be with White Speak again for a long time? This is great!

Silver Umber Black used its most sincere posture to pledge on its Immortal body to become Lin Yuan’s servant. From now on, Lin Yuan could control Silver Umber Black’s life with one word.

Before the joy could sink in, what Lin Yuan said next caused Silver Umber Black to plunge back into despair.

“According to the agreement between the Radiance Federation and the Eight Clans of Sea Experts, you need to testify on behalf of the Radiance Federation with regards to the crime of Shark Awn barging into the Radiance Federation’s territory to steal resources.

“You can’t stay in the sea anymore, and the Eight Clans of Sea Emperors will definitely want to make you pay. So, you have to do your best to collect everything valuable in the sea after the Radiance Federation’s royalty comes to see you.

“From now on, you just have to do your best to work for me. If you perform well, I can leave you in charge of all the sea resources I take control of in the future. If your performance is unsatisfactory, it will be because you’re incompetent. If so, you don’t have to work for me. I’ll leave you with White Speak.”

Silver Umber Black struggled to nod as it trembled in fear.

Lin Yuan was going to reward it handsomely as it did hope that it would be able to take control of all the Sea Emperors.

But at the same time, the punishment was cruel. It would choose death over staying by White Speak’s side.

In order to make Lin Yuan happy, Silver Umber Black was ready to give its all. It would return to the sea and go to Shark Awn’s territory to kill all of Shark Awn’s subordinates that could potentially threaten it. It would take control of those that were willing to submit to it.

Even if it had to work hard, it would gather all of its own and Shark Awn’s resources within three days.

Silver Umber Black kept kneeling respectfully even after Lin Yuan and the rest rode away on the Kill Food Sky Butterfly.

The two sea-king experts that had been practically invisible since Lin Yuan let them out of the Jeweled Cave Golden Toad helped Silver Umber Black up.

They knew that Silver Umber Black’s choice would cause them to never be able to return to the sea clans. They would have no choice but to work for this person named Lin Yuan for the rest of their lives.

While riding on the Kill Food Sky Butterfly, Lin Yuan spotted many spirit qi professionals dressed in uniform outside Raging Waves City. They wore striking standard masks, which indicated that they were Spirit Guards.

Lin Yuan let out a sigh of relief when he saw the Spirit Guards and the undamaged Raging Waves City.
