Chapter 2983 Yi He’s Creator Alliance!
….
At this point, Yi He changed the topic and said without hesitation, “However, if I can get an endless lifespan, it will be a different story. “Endless lifespan represents eternal life. Immortality is still my greatest pursuit and the pursuit of all life. If there’s really a chance to live forever, even the other Grade 5 Creators will do their best to fight for it, let alone me.
“All these years, I’ve been running around to obtain a lifespan. I’ve long become a slave to lifespan. I don’t have any so-called freedom to speak of. At your age, everything is just beginning. I suppose you probably can’t understand what an elderly person like I am saying!”
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan knew what Yi He was thinking, so he spoke in an extremely serious tone. “Master Yi He, if I can give you an endless lifespan, would you consider joining me and working for me?!”
Yi He initially thought Lin Yuan was just speaking freely and hadn’t expected Lin Yuan to say such things to him so seriously. He did not think that Lin Yuan had spiritual ingredients that could allow a lifeform to live forever. Throughout his journey of growth, Yi He had received too many invitations that he had lost count of them. At present, Lin Yuan’s invitation was definitely new to him.
Yi He actually didn’t want to continue this topic anymore. The depletion of his lifespan was already a certainty, and Yi He could already foresee his own fate. It was a little strange to talk about such things at this time.
However, he still patiently replied, “If you can let me obtain an endless lifespan, I can naturally join you and work for you. It’s just that it’s best for young people not to have too many expectations, as you won’t be able to see the reality and lose your determination and courage to strive forward as a result. Alright, you should show me the spiritual ingredients you prepared first!”
Lin Yuan had already asked all the necessary questions, so he took the Lifespan Mouse out of the Spirit Lock spatial zone. Yi He’s originally lazy gaze suddenly erupted with light the moment it landed on the Lifespan Mouse. He hurriedly held the Lifespan Mouse with both hands and carefully observed it.
At this moment, Yi He suddenly understood why Lin Yuan had asked him such a question earlier. Lin Yuan was not just speaking freely to him, he was really genuinely asking to consider if he wanted to reveal this fey to him.
Yi He did not regret what he had just said. If there was such a chance, he was indeed willing to exchange it. However, the current situation was a little special.
Lin Yuan was a World Emperor/Divine Kingdom expert.
However, the aura emitted by the elderly man beside Lin Yuan was only at high-grade Holy Spirit level. Yi He had already captured the Lifespan Mouse and could kill both of them with a raise of his hand. In that case, he would still have an endless lifespan and would not have to be controlled by others.
With this thought in mind, Yi He regarded Lin Yuan with a complex gaze. Both Winter and Lin Yuan noticed the shift in Yi He’s expression.
They maintained their expressions, awaiting Yi He’s decision.
Should Yi He choose to pledge loyalty to Lin Yuan, as suggested, Lin Yuan would readily mentor him, allowing a Grade 5 Creator like Yi He to attain a high-ranking position within Sky City.
Honoring his promise would showcase Yi He’s character and integrity. However, reneging on his word, refusing to join Lin Yuan, and attempting to seize the Lifespan Mouse to attack Lin Yuan would prompt Winter to assert direct control over Yi He, akin to his handling of Cen Ruyi. This would underscore that Grade 5 Creators hold no special privileges under Lin Yuan’s authority.
After a while, Yi He resolved his inner conflict and addressed Lin Yuan, saying, “Lin Yuan, I’ll have to address you differently from now on. I am now one of your subordinates. If you require anything, just inform me. At present, I lead an alliance of Creators. If you wish for my allegiance, I can delegate management of this alliance to a trusted friend.”
Lin Yuan smiled and extended his hand, “Since that’s the case, I’ll have to trouble you to take care of me in the future. Welcome to Sky City!”
Lin Yuan pondered about the Creator Alliance mentioned by Yi He. A Creator Alliance could be said to be extremely valuable. He had previously heard Ling Muzhuo mention organizations like the Creator Alliance. It seemed that Yi He was the leader of the Creator Alliance.
Lin Yuan had originally intended to bring Yi He along and bring him into Sky City. However, upon knowing that Yi He had the Creator Alliance, Lin Yuan changed his mind. It was better to let Yi He continue to develop this Creator Alliance outside so that Lin Yuan could borrow their resources. This was much more beneficial to Lin Yuan than bringing him back to Sky City.
“Master Yi He, contract this Lifespan Mouse first. With its endless lifespan, you’ll find it easier to continue developing this Creator Alliance in the future. The endless lifespan in exchange for freedom that I mentioned before actually doesn’t impose many restrictions on you. hope you can tell me about the Creator Alliance in the future!”
In reality, Yi He was reluctant to disband the Creator Alliance, considering it his own close-knit circle. He had nurtured a special fey to facilitate communication among the Creators within this circle. Handing over control of the faction he had managed for countless years would likely leave him disappointed for a considerable time.
Yet, since he was now under Lin Yuan’s command, it would be unreasonable for him to continue leading the Creator Alliance. Therefore, he refrained from suggesting such a course of action to Lin Yuan. To his surprise, Lin Yuan granted him the freedom he desired.
Following his contract with the Lifespan Mouse, Yi He took the initiative to surrender it to Lin Yuan. Aware of Lin Yuan’s intention to reclaim the Lifespan Mouse, Yi He comprehended his actions fully. If the roles were reversed, Yi He would have acted likewise.
After giving the Lifespan Mouse to Lin Yuan, he released his holy spirit for Lin Yuan to control, “Since I’m in charge of this Creator Alliance, I’ll continue to stay in Cloud Splendor Palace outside Clear Peak City from now on. Young Master, do you have a communication fey? If you don’t, I have a Thousand Words Cicada here. You can contact me through a voice transmission at any time.”
After saying that, Yi He took out a small cicada that was completely emerald green. The cicada kept flapping its wings and letting out a pleasant cry.
Lin Yuan once again encountered a fey capable of long-distance communication.
The Thousand Words Cicada’s communication ability was stronger than the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower. The Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower could only transmit text messages, but the Thousand Words Cicada could transmit voice messages.
Lin Yuan did not need Yi He to introduce the Thousand Words Cicada to him. He had already found out about it through True Data. However, the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower was more suitable for Lin Yuan and Sky City.
The Thousand Words Cicada could only transmit messages from point to point. Only young cicadas born from the same mother cicada could transmit messages.
A fey like the Thousand Words Cicada could only give birth to two or three cicadas at a time, unlike the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower, which could form a huge communication network.
Lin Yuan received the Thousand Words Cicada and handed a Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower to Yi He, “Master Yi He, I’ll also give you one of the feys I use for communication. This way, even if one communication channel is broken in the future, we can still communicate through another method.”
Yi He immediately recognized that the communication fey that Lin Yuan took out was the ramet of the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower. He could not help but ask Lin Yuan, “Young Master, is your relationship with the Fortune Treasure Palace extremely close?”
After becoming Lin Yuan’s subordinate, Yi He felt it necessary to inquire about Lin Yuan’s relationship with Fortune Treasure Palace, so he could understand how to interact with them in the future.
It was thanks to Ling Muzhuo that he had the chance to meet Lin Yuan. If Ling Muzhuo had not repeatedly invited Yi He, he would not have come. In his heart, he was still quite grateful to Ling Muzhuo.
Lin Yuan pondered for a moment before replying, “We don’t have a close relationship. The Fortune Treasure Palace and I are just trading with each other. You can still maintain your previous identity when you travel outside. There’s no need to publicly say that you’ve joined another faction. If there’s anything you want to do, just do it. I won’t restrict you unless it’s necessary. Since you have recovered your lifespan, why don’t we leave this side hall?”
Yi He hurriedly said, “Young Master, as I just mentioned inviting you to a banquet, why don’t you give me this opportunity to tell you about the Creator Alliance?”
Before Lin Yuan could nod, Yi He enthusiastically took out many dishes. Without exception, these dishes were all made with extremely rare spiritual ingredients and had extremely strong local characteristics of the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
Lin Yuan actually did not like to eat the food that Yi He had taken out. High-grade spiritual ingredients usually had a very strong taste. The food made from these high-grade spiritual ingredients resembled the medicinal cuisine that Lin Yuan had consumed in his previous life. Compared to these medicinal cuisines, Lin Yuan preferred normal food.
It was true that eating food made of rare spiritual ingredients could improve one’s physique, but Lin Yuan’s Body of All Spirits had no room for improvement.
After some conversation, Lin Yuan learned that Yi He was an intermediate Grade 5 Creator, and there was also a low Grade 5 Creator in the Creator Alliance that Yi He had founded. In addition, there were 27 Grade 4 Creators under him, and these people were all Yi He’s best friends.
Lin Yuan was rather surprised by the number of people in the Creator Alliance. There were actually 27 Grade 4 Creators in the alliance. This made Lin Yuan even more certain that he had to let Yi He manage this Creator Alliance well.
After introducing the Creator Alliance under his command, Yi He spoke to Lin Yuan warmly and seriously, “Young Master, if you need any Creator resources, just let me know. I can issue a mission in the Creator Alliance.”
Lin Yuan pondered for a moment before replying, “Yi He, I won’t stand on ceremony with you. I want to exchange for more potions to strengthen insect-type lifeforms and increase and recover spiritual energy through the Creator Alliance you control. Although you’ve joined me, I won’t ask you for help for nothing. I have many Grade 4 Creator resources on hand. I can use these Grade 4 Creator resources to exchange for them.”
As he spoke, Lin Yuan took out a few spirit qi crystals and shook them in his hand before handing them to Yi He to investigate.
Yi He did not take the spirit qi crystal from Lin Yuan and quickly waved his hand, “Young Master, why would I want your compensation for the things you arranged for me? It’s easy to concoct potions to nurture insect-species feys and restore spiritual energy. I’ll arrange for those Grade 4 Creators to concoct more!”
Upon hearing his words, Lin Yuan replied with a smile, “Master Yi He, you’ll definitely have to pay the other Grade 4 Creators for their work. It’s impossible for these Creators to work for you for free after joining your alliance. In the future, I might have to cooperate with these Creators under your command. Only by paying more can I ensure that they are willing to make potions for me for a long time!”
As Lin Yuan’s strength continued to increase, he began to pay more attention to the accumulation of potions because he realized that he could not solve everything with just spirit qi crystals.
Liu Jie’s increase in strength and Wen Yu’s spiritual energy growth and recovery were not achievable with just the spirit qi crystals.
Apart from constantly collecting special spiritual ingredients, Lin Yuan also needed to prepare some potions. It was time for Liu Jie and Wen Yu, his two right-hand men, to improve their strength.
As the leader of the Creator Alliance, Yi He would definitely not let his subordinates work for nothing. Those who could become Grade 4 Creators were all intelligent individuals, and Yi He did not want his friends to be suspicious.
Yi He was prepared to pay for the resources himself. However, now that Lin Yuan had expressed his intentions, he would not reject it no matter what the reason was.
After Yi He returned, he prepared to hold a meeting in the organization and tell everyone in the Creator Alliance that his lifespan had been restored. This news could rekindle the members’ fighting spirit.
“Alright, Young Master, I’ll make the arrangements now. I’ll try to rush back tonight!”
After Lin Yuan finished his meal, he left the side hall together with Yi He, who had already restored his youthful appearance. Yi He was extremely good-looking. Among all the individuals that Lin Yuan had encountered, Yi He’s looks easily ranked within the top five.
Upon seeing Ling Muzhuo, Yi He raised his hand and cupped his hands towards him. After expressing his gratitude to Ling Muzhuo, he immediately set off for his Cloud Splendor Palace.
As news of his lifespan nearing its end spread, many factions near Clear Peak City sought to capitalize on his situation. In the past, Yi He had no intention to deal with these factions. Now, Yi He was prepared to settle scores with them to let these factions know who truly held power within a 500,000-kilometer radius of Clear Peak City, Dragon Heart City, and Fire Stream City!
