Fey Evolution Merchant Novel - Chapter 2271

2271 A Verbal Slip-Up Leads to Trouble!
For some reason, White Speak had a strange hope—it hoped that many Dictators would come to attend the Banquet of Everything.

Lin Yuan could reveal his Dictator’s body and show the other Dictators what true beauty was.

If someone with Star Splendor’s appearance could be called the biggest beauty of the Marsh East Circle, Lin Yuan’s appearance would surely be reputed throughout Marsh Abyss.

Lin Yuan instructed White Speak, “Go and bring another bench into the main hall for Dictator Everything.”
White Speak hurriedly nodded.

!!
Meanwhile, Dictator Everything said softly, “Call me Cleansing Rain. That’s the name my mother gave me when I was young. I’ve never revealed the name, so no one from the Palace of Everything knows about it.”

Lin Yuan had not expected Dictator Everything to use her real name to conceal her identity.

From what Dictator Everything said, Lin Yuan could tell that she was threatened by something in the Palace of Everything. Otherwise, she would not insist that no one from the Palace of Everything find out the truth.

The Palace of Everything was under Dictator Everything’s supervision, and it would be impossible for the entire Palace of Everything to rebel against her. Hence, there was a high chance that Dictator Everything had been forced to this place because of Second Born, who had become a Dictator.

To confirm this guess, Lin Yuan said, “You can call me Lin Yuan.”

Dictator Everything shook her head gently and said, “Lin Yuan might be your real name, but I would rather call you Ten Thousand Source. I applaud your courage to add the word ‘source’ into your name and to the back at that.”

Lin Yuan frowned slightly. He could tell that Dictator Everything was trying to get at something.

Could it be that the name he had come up with on the fly had a hidden meaning?

With that thought, Lin Yuan looked at Dictator Everything with an expression that made it clear that he needed an explanation from her.

Dictator Everything saw that Lin Yuan had turned austere and immediately thought back to what she had just said.

But even after a moment passed, Dictator Everything could not figure out which part of what she had said had been strange.

Could it be that by applauding Lin Yuan’s courage for including the word ‘source’ at the back of his name, Lin Yuan felt affronted and was now angry?

Dictator Everything’s expression immediately turned panicked.

Dictators took pride in their names and were willing to safeguard their names with their lives.

If Lin Yuan felt that she was trampling on his pride, she might instantly become his enemy.

Dictator Everything hurriedly explained, “I meant to say that it’s brave for you to be unafraid of the seven Dictators from Marsh Abyss! Once news of your name gets out, the seven Dictators from Marsh Abyss will definitely send someone to you. If my guess is right, it’ll either be Dictator Evil Source or Hornless Dragon Source.”

Lin Yuan suddenly realized that so much thought went into a Dictator’s name! Had he just fixed a ticking bomb to himself by calling himself ‘Ten Thousand Source!?

From the information he gained from East Glow, Lin Yuan knew Marsh Abyss’ position in the marsh world.

It was likely that Evil Source and Hornless Dragon Source, who Dictator Everything had mentioned, were two of the seven figures who East Glow had spoken of.

Lin Yuan would be rather troubled if he offended a Samsara Realm Dictator because of his name.

With Begin Lady around, Lin Yuan did not have to be afraid of either Dictator Evil Source or Dictator Hornless Dragon Source. But if both of them appeared together, the situation would turn sticky.

With a wave of his hand, Lin Yuan summoned Green Vine, who started to converse with Dictator Everything on Lin Yuan’s behalf.

Dictator Everything froze when she sensed Green Vine’s aura.

This cold and beautiful woman was clearly weak, so why did she have such a startling aura?

Dictator Everything was already planning on bootlicking Lin Yuan in the hopes that he would help her. Hence, she could only answer honestly to Green Vine’s superficial questions.

Lin Yuan found out a lot of information that had been previously unknown to him from the conversation between Dictator Everything and Green Vine.

It turned out that once an Apostle who followed a Dictator broke through to the Dictator level, they would definitely betray their Dictator. It was a path that almost all Dictators had to go down.

It was as though this was the world’s way of keeping down the number of Dictators in the world.

This would explain why Second Born had unsavory intentions for Dictator Everything.

White Speak broke out in a cold sweat when it heard the conversation between Dictator Everything and Green Vine and turned to look at Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan had been trying to nurture White Speak into a Dictator. Could it become a traitor to Lin Yuan after it became a Dictator?

White Speak could not believe that it would ever decide to do so. Yet, there was no way that Dictator Everything was lying.

White Speak was unsure how Lin Yuan would react once he learned of this piece of information.

East Glow, who was about to break through to Dictator, might be even more worried than White Speak.

Lin Yuan looked into the distance as he mulled over Dictator Everything’s words, but there was no worry in his eyes.

He only took in Apostles so he could accept their faith power.

However, Dictators also needed to lock their Apostles’ source totems after absorbing their faith power.

He was not a true Dictator and had different methods from regular Dictators.

After Lin Yuan saved Dictator Everything, he could clearly sense that a glowing dot that represented Dictator Everything’s faith power had appeared in the fountain of faith.

However, this dot of light was almost pathetically small.

This situation informed Lin Yuan that he could also receive faith power from Dictators. As such, he did not have to worry about East Glow and White Speak betraying him after they became Dictators.

Alas, he could only be certain once he had tested this out. Lin Yuan intended to find the time to do exactly that.

He decided to help East Glow to become a Dictator before the Banquet of Everything began so he could see if East Glow ended up straying.

What would happen when he boosted a Dictator with his faith power?

With that thought, Lin Yuan decided to do a test on Dictator Everything first.

He raised his hand, and five pillars of glowing light appeared behind him, enveloping him in faith power.
