1898 The More You Say the Happier I Am

The gold-robed man was a thearch-class expert from one of the Great Lush Federation’s secret aristocratic families. This meant that he was in the upper echelons of the Great Lush Federation.

He was in such a sorry state now because, from the moment Lin Yuan arrived, he had started to oppress and torture the gold-robed man. Moreover, Lin Yuan was much too powerful!

If Lin Yuan also only possessed therach-class power, it would be a level of power that Lin Yuan could understand and the gold-robed man would not be this terrified.

Alas, Lin Yuan had demonstrated power that was far beyond the gold-robed man’s understanding.

Even an expert could not stand up to the fear of the unknown.

When he heard Lin Yuan’s question, the gold-robed man said with much difficulty, “I don’t know why you kept me behind. I already told you that I’m not a member of the Lu family.”

Lin Yuan scoffed and said, “You already joined the Lu family’s troops. How is that different from being part of the family? Obviously, I kept you behind because I need to talk to you. If you provide me with a satisfactory answer, I will let you leave Oak City alive. If I’m unsatisfied with your answer, your friend Lu Han will be happy to receive you in the afterlife.”

The gold-robed man’s eyes lit up because Lin Yuan had essentially given him a path to survival.

Since the gold-robed man came from a secret aristocratic family, he had strong analytical skills and could guess what Lin Yuan was thinking.

If another member of a chamber of commerce from the Great Lush Federation was present, the gold-robed man would keep his lips sealed under all circumstances. But now, he was the only member of the Great Lush Federation who was present so he could afford to speak more freely.

As for Lin Yuan saying that Lu Han was his friend, the gold-robed man did not dare to deny it.

Lu Han was his subordinate as the Lu family was the elite family under the Jin family.

It went without saying that the Jin family had to control the Lu family. He had been sent to keep Lu Han under control.

There was no way that the gold-robed man would reveal this relationship. If he did, he would be admitting to Lin Yuan that he had agreed to allow Lu Han to cause trouble for the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce.

Since he knew that he would not die as long as he was cooperative, the gold-robed man said in a serious voice, “Lord, no matter what you ask me, I will tell you all you want to know as long as I have the answers!”

Lin Yuan pointed at the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce’s tree castle and said, “Since you understand the situation, let’s go in to talk!”

Lin Yuan took such an attitude toward the gold-robed man because he wanted to test what kind of person the gold-robed man was. This was the same situation as when he accepted Ding Chengshuo as his subordinate.

During his development into the Startling Lines Continent, Lin Yuan did not mind picking a few residents to nurture.

From what the gold-robed man said, it indicated that he did not feel loyalty to the Jin family or the person pulling the strings of the Great Lush Federation. Hence, Lin Yuan felt that it was worth picking him as a long-term investment.

However, Lin Yuan needed to be done questioning him before he could decide how he should treat him.

Since Su Yiren had been developing in the Divine Wood Federation for the past few months, she had to have more information than Lin Yuan.

Thus, he decided to use Thoughts Letter Paper to call Su Yiren over to the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce so they could question the gold-robed man together.

When Lin Yuan stepped into the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce’s tree castle, he saw Li Wan, Feng Jiazhi, and the rest of the Sincere Merchant Group waiting to welcome him uproariously.

Lin Yuan smiled and nodded at Li Wan and Feng Jiazhi.

When Li Wan and Feng Jiazhi saw the gold-robed man, they knew that Lin Yuan had business to attend to and hurriedly found a room for him.

Frankly, from the moment Lin Yuan obtained shares of the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce and Li Wan started to view him as a pillar of support, she had given up the president’s room on the top floor to him.

She had also done some remodeling to the president’s office.

Currently, Lin Yuan was sitting on the leather chair in the president’s office while Liu Jie sat next to him and was sipping on fresh juice.

Di Wanmi was silently standing behind Lin Yuan like a bodyguard.

This discovery caused slight shock to appear on the gold-robed man’s face.

Given the black-robed woman’s power, the young man should be paying respects to her. But now, it seemed as though she was nothing more than his tool.

Just how strong did the faction behind the young man have to be in order for him to take such an attitude toward such an expert?

This thought filled the gold-robed man with even more fill.

He suddenly thought about how Lin Yuan said that he would allow him to leave Oak City alive.

But what would he do once he left Oak City? He could not let the fate of his survival rest in the hands of whether this young man kept his word.

The gold-robed man had himself gone back on his word numerous times. Thus, he did not believe in promises.

While the gold-robed man was gripped with terror, Lin Yuan said, “Later, someone will be here to ask you questions. What you need to do is tell the truth. The more you say, the happier I’ll be. If you turn out to be as obedient as Ding Chengshuo, I don’t mind letting you live an existence of a higher quality.”

Lin Yuan stopped interacting with the gold-robed man and did not even bother to observe his reaction.

When Lin Yuan mentioned Ding Chengshuo, Liu Jie immediately realized what Lin Yuan meant.

Lin Yuan was telling the gold-robed man that he would accept him into his side if he gave the right answers.

Besides possible benefits in store, the way that Lin Yuan forced the other chambers of commerce to move to the north and south regions of the city had already developed Oak City to a large extent.

The gold-robed man could now breathe easier and much of his fear evaporated.

If he could meet the young man’s standard and side with him instead, his safety would be assured.

When Lu Han decided to cause trouble for the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce, the gold-robed man had gone to see Ding Chengshuo.

At that time, the Dragon Horns Mysterious Turtle had been by Ding Chengshuo’s side.

The gold-robed man noticed that in less than two years, the Dragon Horns Mysterious Turtle had evolved from Myth II to pinnacle Myth III. It was impossible that Ding Chengshuo was capable of such a thing.

It was likely that Ding Chengshuo’s increase in power came from this young man.

From the moment the gold-robed man entered the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce’s tree castle, he was ready to be fully candid.

Regardless, he still had some worries.
