2274 No Respect!
Lin Yuan spoke the truth, but it still made East Glow uncomfortable.
However, there was nothing that East Glow could do. Even if it could defeat these Apostles, doing so would offend the Dictators who supported them. Thus, the loss it would suffer would outweigh the benefits.
Yet, it could not allow the Marsh East Palace’s pride to be trampled along with its own.
It was said that Star Splendor had become acquainted with Dictator Return to Ruins’ Apostle and had been recommended to Dictator Return to Ruins.
Meanwhile, East Glow followed Lin Yuan so it could attain a breakthrough and reach a brighter future.
It was clear that Star Splendor had not attached itself to Dictator Return to Ruins just to obtain such things.
After all, East Glow had chased Star Splendor for many years. Although it knew what kind of character Star Splendor had, East Glow still could not shake the bad taste in its mouth.
Lin Yuan’s words had hit a nerve. But since it was Lin Yuan who had spoken, East Glow still nodded seriously.
As Lin Yuan sensed the change in East Glow’s mood, he gently tapped the table twice as he said, “Since this is how things are, why don’t I help you to become a Dictator? Once you become a Dictator, none of the other Dictators will speak against you while you’re managing trivial matters as long as you act reasonably. You are my follower, They have to consider my pride.”
Lin Yuan’s decision for East Glow to break through to Dictator was not a last-minute one. He had only come to this decision after contemplating for some time.
Firstly, Lin Yuan wanted to test to see if East Glow would betray him once it became a Dictator. Secondly, the other Dictators were all keeping a close eye on him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEast Glow had been an Apostle when it entered. But when it left the hall, it would be a Dictator. Such an action would surely astonish the other Dictators.
One had to be strong in order to establish a network in society, so Lin Yuan needed to cultivate his image properly.
If someone still tried to cause trouble for him after he had cultivated his image, he would not mind gathering some Dictator source totems. It just so happened that it was time for him to contract his second sacred source lifeform.
East Glow was struck dumb when it heard what Lin Yuan said. It was so happy that it had no idea what to say.
This was a massive blessing!
Although it was a pinnacle Apostle and was only one step away from reaching Apostle, it was extremely difficult to take that step.
By being willing to help it, Lin Yuan would surely provide it with a sea of source-type power.
East Glow had already become Lin Yuan’s follower. Thus, it left everything to Lin Yuan to arrange.
It did not know how it should repay Lin Yuan.
But in order to become stronger, East Glow could not let go of such a chance.
“Lord, once I become a Dictator, I will do my best to carry out your orders!”
Lin Yuan did not respond.
East Glow’s loyalty would either persist after it became a Dictator because Lin Yuan was not a dimensional lifeform or would change its mind and betray him.
It was not up to a few promises from East Glow to determine which result would take place.
Lin Yuan did not believe such potentially empty promises either.
He had not used much source-type power recently, and the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen had not slowed in its absorption of Law Source Crystals either. Thus, Lin Yuan possessed an ocean of source-type power.
Lin Yuan manipulated a large amount of source-type power into East Glow’s body.
The source-type power flashed and shone around Lin Yuan. For a moment, East Glow almost mistook Lin Yuan for a celestial being.
A river of source-type power gilded within East Glow and unlocked the padlocks within its body. As wave after wave passed, East Glow’s life rank was unbolted and promoted, turning it into a true Dictator.
There were no trumpets or fanfare when an Apostle evolved into a Dictator.
East Glow fully retracted its aura.
Its source totem was no longer fixed at one spot but spread throughout its entire body until it settled just below its skin.
When East Glow opened its eyes again, it could be addressed as Dictator East Glow.
East Glow did not appear overly excited or overwhelmed now that it had reached the level it had been dreaming of.
This was because none of it had come from its own hard work but had been a gift from Lin Yuan.
East Glow understood that there were times when a strong source of support was much more important than one’s own hard work.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut it went without saying that such an opportunity only came about after its previous hard work. If it had not been strong enough, it would never have been able to receive such a blessing from Lin Yuan.
Although it had become a Dictator, East Glow did not forget its promise to Lin Yuan.
East Glow started to kowtow to Lin Yuan just like the first time it had met him.
East Glow’s actions and the look in its eyes told Lin Yuan that he had made the right guess.
East Glow had not developed a traitorous bone after it became a Dictator. Instead, it was now going to be a source of Dictator-level power that Lin Yuan could wield.
“East Glow, go and handle the affairs of the Palace of Everything. If there are any issues, you can let White Speak know and discuss them together.”
From Lin Yuan’s words, East Glow could sense how much affection Lin Yuan had for White Speak.
East Glow was glad that it had not looked down on White Speak when they first met. Otherwise, even after becoming a Dictator, a few nasty comments from White Speak to Lin Yuan would cause Lin Yuan to turn against it.
East Glow remembered Dictator Everything who it saw by the entrance and asked, “Lord Ten Thousand Source, Dictator Everything—”
Before East Glow finished speaking, Lin Yuan said, “You don’t need to talk about Dictator Everything. She will make an entrance during the Banquet of Everything tomorrow.”
East Glow was about to leave the hall when it suddenly remembered Dictator Return to Ruins’ invitation for Lin Yuan and asked softly, “Lord Ten Thousand Source, Return to Ruins would like to see you before the Banquet of Everything begins. Are you interested in meeting him?”
When East Glow had been an Apostle, it had to address Return to Ruins as ‘Dictator Return to Ruins’ as a show of respect.
But now, East Glow had transformed into a Dictator and could address Dictator Return to Ruins by name.
Lin Yuan immediately turned the offer down by saying, “I don’t have any ties with Return to Ruins. There’s no need to see him.”
Although East Glow did not have much experience, it had confirmed when Lin Yuan injected almost 3,000 units of source-type power into its body to turn it into a Dictator that he had to have reached the Samsara Realm and was much more powerful than Dictator Return to Ruins.
There was no need for Lin Yuan to look out for Dictator Return to Ruins’ pride!
