Fey Evolution Merchant Novel - Chapter 2297
2297 Her Brain Turns Quickly!
Normally, Dictators or Apostles who were beloved by a powerful being were arrogant. This was a natural progression, and there was no way to avoid it!
However, it was clear that White Speak was not affected by this and was well aware of its position. It was no wonder that Lin Yuan thought so highly of it!
East Glow intended to properly learn from White Speak when it came to this.
Lin Yuan nodded slightly when he heard this.
White Speak and East Glow immediately moved to lead Pregnant Poison and Return to Ruins in order to meet Lin Yuan. It did not take long for them to enter the main hall.
Although Return to Ruins had chosen to become loyal to Lin Yuan and was prepared to bow to him, he did not expect Pregnant Poison to immediately fall to the ground and say in a pitifully sweet voice, “I have admired your majesty for a long time, and I want to serve you! I hope you will take me in and give me the chance to do so!”
Everything was not at all surprised by Pregnant Poison’s reaction. This fit perfectly with her idea of who Pregnant Poison was.
If Lin Yuan did not agree, she would not hesitate to do anything.
There were many Dictators who were unwilling to do such a thing even if their life was at stake.
But it had to be said that Pregnant Poison’s actions had brought her significant benefits. Otherwise, she would never have been taken in by Evil Source.
Return to Ruins looked at the seemingly pitiful Pregnant Poison with shock.
What is going on? Wasn’t Pregnant Poison loyal to Dictator Evil Source? Could she want to jump over to Lord Ten Thousand Source’s ship now that Evil Source had lost her authority?
If Evil Source found out about how Pregnant Poison was lowering herself, she would immediately reduce Pregnant Poison to ashes.
Pregnant Poison sure is daring! Could she be that confident that Lord Ten Thousand Source will take her in? She is gambling on her life! As much as Pregnant Poison wants to switch allegiances, she should not play with her life.
But it did not take long for Return to Ruins to figure it out.
Evil Source had come because of Tyrant Lizard, while Freezing Ember Hornless Dragon Source had come because of Freezing Ember and Frost Cold. They had come because they had heard of news pertaining to Lin Yuan.
Thus, Evil Source had actually been lured here by Pregnant Poison.
Given Evil Source’s recent behavior and temper, she likely placed all the blame on Pregnant Poison.
Pregnant Poison was doing this for self-preservation.
Return to Ruins was still shocked. But this time, he was not shocked by Pregnant Poison’s actions but by her brain. Her brain sure turned quickly!
If her brain had turned any slower and she had not immediately come to seek Lin Yuan out, Evil Source might have already killed her.
When Lin Yuan did not respond to Pregnant Poison, Return to Ruins learned from Pregnant Poison and went down on one knee.
If Return to Ruins had come on his own, he would never have done such a thing.
But now that he had an example in front of him, he was going to learn from it. He could do at least this much.
Pregnant Poison was waiting for Lin Yuan’s response. How Lin Yuan reacted would determine whether she lived or died.
However, she had still not received any response from Lin Yuan, and now came another competitor in the form of Return to Ruins.
Pregnant Poison had already made many nasty remarks about Return to Ruins to herself.
During this time, the expression on her face became increasingly pitiful.
Everything looked at Pregnant Poison with disdain. No one knew better than Everything what kind of character Pregnant Poison had.
Everything clearly remembered that the first Dictator she had encountered when she arrived at Marsh Abyss was Pregnant Poison.
At that time, Pregnant Poison had addressed her as ‘sister’, but only she knew of the vile thoughts that she was harboring.
Because of the way that Pregnant Poison addressed her, Everything treated her as family and did not put her guard up.
But there were numerous occasions that Pregnant Poison had forced her into danger for the sake of her own profits. These incidents had almost caused Everything to get on the wrong side of a powerful enemy.
Ever since then, Everything saw Pregnant Poison for who she truly was and decided to part ways.
After that happened, Pregnant Poison had sought her out to apologize, and she had accepted the apology. But eventually, she ended up being used by Pregnant Poison again.
Since she knew Pregnant Poison well, Everything did not believe that Pregnant Poison truly wanted to serve Lin Yuan. It was just like how Pregnant Poison had not sincerely served Evil Source.
However, Everything did not say anything.
Lin Yuan was more powerful than Pregnant Poison. With such a powerful source of support, someone as obsessed with profits as Pregnant Poison would definitely do all she could to try to make him happy.
During that time, Pregnant Poison would be much more useful than East Glow.
If Everything knew what kind of character Pregnant Poison had, there would be no way that Lin Yuan was ignorant of the truth.
Everything was glad that Lin Yuan had found her first.
Due to many issues, Second Born could not seek her out with as much fervor as she wanted.
Although Second Born had become a Dictator and her nature made her betray Everything, there was no way that she would be willing to cut off her ties of kinship with First Born and Third Born.
However, the same did not go for Pregnant Poison.
If Lin Yuan had not found her, she would have continued hiding.
Once the Banquet of Everything ended, Pregnant Poison would have sniffed her out. If that had happened, she would have eventually become a source totem in Pregnant Poison’s collection.
This was the only reason that Pregnant Poison could have come to the Banquet of Everything.
White Speak did not harp on the fact that Prayer Glow had acted in Return to Ruins’ name and almost killed it.
But there were still some things that Lin Yuan needed to remind Return to Ruins.
“Return to Ruins, do you remember teaching an Apostle named Prayer Glow?”
Return to Ruins’ expression froze.
Return to Ruins picked an Apostle every once in a while and guided them. He had taught at least 3,000 Apostles in his time, and there was no way that he could remember all of their names.
Return to Ruins did not understand why a Samsara Realm Dictator like Lin Yuan cared about a weak Apostle called Prayer Glow.
Could there be some ties between Prayer Glow and Lord Ten Thousand Source? If that’s the case, can I leverage the ties that Prayer Glow established?
Once this idea was formed, Return to Ruins pushed it out of his mind.
Return to Ruins did not believe that the Apostle by the name of Prayer Glow had the right or the ability to offend Lin Yuan.
But it was a fact that he had no memory of Prayer Glow. Since he could not remember, Return to Ruins dared not speak recklessly either.
“Lord Ten Thousand Source, I do have the habit of teaching Apostles, but I have taught at least 3,000 to 4,000 of them in my lifetime. Besides a few special ones who made an impression on me, I wouldn’t be able to recognize the rest even if they appeared in front of me again. None of the Apostles in my memory are called Prayer Glow.”
