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!”

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.
