I Have A Divine Tree In My Heart - Chapter 144

Chapter 144: What Could You Work On?

“His physical body has recovered, yet he has not regained consciousness. Aren’t all of you anxious?”

“It’s okay. It might be too painful to be tortured by electric current. You should know that human beings have this coma mechanism. Too much pain is enough to make people fall unconscious.”

While looking at Jiang Rong, who seemed anxious to find excuses, Qin Ya had already come up with her own guess. She clenched her fists, but in the end, she did not voice the thoughts in her mind. Instead, she took out a blue medicinal drink.

“This is Blue Dream, and it costs 300,000 yuan per bottle. It is concocted using Peacebloom, and it has a miraculous effect on mental recovery. Can you give it to him?”

“You are a little too concerned for him.”

“I can’t help it. Our contract talks are still ongoing.”

“I thought you two couldn’t reach a consensus?”

“I have changed my mind.”

Qin Ya noticed that Jiang Rong was hesitating and said, “After becoming his manager, I will try my best to assist him so that he will develop at the fastest speed possible. Don’t you want to see this happening?”

“Of course.”

Since Qin Ya had already said so, what else could Jiang Rong say? Finally, Blue Dream was poured into Lin Yao’s mouth.

As the blue medicinal drink flowed into his body, Lin Yao, who was groggy, suddenly felt a chill growing in his mind.

The refreshing coolness nourished Lin Yao’s spirit, quickly making the drowsiness in his mind dissipate. Lio Yao sighed in comfort. This abnormal state was dispelled by Blue Dream after 10 minutes, and he finally woke up.

“I feel so good.”

Lin Yao, who had sobered up, felt like he’d had a good night’s sleep, and all his fatigue and troubles had disappeared. He felt nothing but soothing comfort.

He was energetic and refreshed. He felt as if he had been reborn.

“What’s going on? The physical recovery is understandable, but how is the mental fatigue after the second layer of electric current development alleviated?”

Lin Yao was puzzled, but he soon noticed Jiang Rong and Qin Ya standing beside the bed.

It was not surprising that Jiang Rong was around. However, Lin Yao was shocked to see that Qin Ya was still there. “Why haven’t you left?”

“We have yet to finish discussing the contract.”

“You can’t agree to my conditions, and neither can I agree to yours. There is no point in discussing it more.”

Qin Ya did not answer him directly. Instead, she took out two bottles of medicinal drinks and placed them in front of Lin Yao.

“The green bottle is Water of Life, and the blue bottle is Blue Dream. Both bottles of medicinal drink can be produced by my father’s company. You recovered so quickly due to these two bottles of medicinal drinks.”

Upon looking at the medicinal drinks and feeling the recovery in his body, Lin Yao could tell that they were very beneficial.

‘It turns out that there are other medicinal drinks besides nutrition drinks that can aid my development. In fact, the nutrition drink is the lowest level of medicinal drink.’

As this thought crossed his mind, some questions also appeared in his head.

“How much is a bottle?”

“Water of Life costs 200,000 yuan, and Blue Dream costs 300,000 yuan.”

“Forget it.”

Lin Yao, who had noticed the benefits of these two medicinal drinks, initially wanted to take two bottles a day to go through electric current development twice a day. However, he dismissed those thoughts due to their prices.

He was not worthy of them.

“You gave me these two bottles of medicinal drinks when I was in a coma. Thank you, but I won’t pay for them.”

He did not have half a million yuan, and he had recovered very quickly after falling unconscious. Therefore, he had no need for those two precious medicinal drinks. Lin Yao was grateful to Qin Ya for giving him the drinks, but he would not pay for them. Otherwise, what should he do if she made him drink even more expensive medicinal drinks next time?

“Of course, this is a gift for you because we met for the first time. Let’s talk about the contract now.”

“I told you, we can’t agree on the money…”

“No, we can come to a consensus. The profits can be split 8:2, and I will discuss it with you before making any work arrangements.”

Qin Ya, who was in her business attire, flung her hair. She sat on a chair as she talked to Lin Yao, who was on the bed.

“Have you changed your mind?”

“Mr. Lin, your will is admirable.”

“Will? I thought it was my talent. Sure, you can draft a contract. I will sign it after reading it… You only agreed to two of the three conditions?”

“Yes, the duration of the contract needs to be changed. Five years are too short. You can’t develop and mature during this period. We will put in a lot of effort and hope that you will agree to a longer contract, Mr. Lin.”

“How long would that be?”

“Lifelong…”

“This is impossible.”

Qin Ya looked at Lin Yao as she tapped her fingers and quickly said, “Of course it’s impossible. I was just joking. It’s a contract for 50 years.”

“It’s too long.” After answering her, Lin Yao hurriedly voiced his thoughts before Qin Ya could continue.

“I can only agree to 10 years. You don’t have to worry, as I am an emotional person. As long as you prove to be a qualified professional manager, we can renew the contract when the time is up.”

“Mr. Lin, such a promise is not valid in the business world… However, I agree.”

“Huh?”

This time, it was Lin Yao’s turn to be surprised.

Soon, Qin Ya was drafting a contract next to Lin Yao. Lin Yao, who felt that he had recovered, did not go elsewhere. Instead, Senior Sister Jiang Rong took him to bask in the sun half-naked for an hour. He waited until his body was filled with solar energy before he went to the electric current development room for another round of in-depth electric current development.

Of course, tests had to be performed before the development.

“He is in good condition. The Water of Life and Blue Dream healed Lin Yao physically and mentally. He could go through in-depth electric current development again.”

“Then let’s start.”

Soon, the testing process was completed, and they started the electric current development right away.

Due to the Armored Body Of Light, Lin Yao was able to go through longer physical development.

In the meantime, Qin Ya had already drafted a contract and was waiting outside the room for Lin Yao to come out.

Seeing that Qin Ya looked very determined, Jiang Rong approached her and said, “You listed some very good terms for him. It would be okay if he was a famous martial artist. However, he is merely a low-level martial artist. Is he worth the price you are paying?”

“Of course, Mr. Lin is worth the price.”

Seeing that Qin Ya did not hesitate at all, Jiang Rong continued. “Why?”

“You should know the reason, so there’s no need to spell it out.”

Half an hour later, Lin Yao was dragged out of the research institute like a dead dog again.

His body trembled, and he was very lethargic. However, after another round of development, the development of Lin Yao’s physical body had reached 62%, and he could maintain accelerated thinking for 16 seconds.

On top of that, he had better control of the electric current. After he attained Heavenly Thunder Manipulation LV2, Lin Yao’s proficiency would increase with each electric shock. However, the rate of the increase had slowed down. This was the case for most people.

Fortunately, he persisted for a long time and went through more than 30 minutes of electric current development twice, which was a total of one hour of electric shock. Hence, Lin Yao’s Heavenly Thunder talent had increased by 3 points and had now become Heavenly Thunder Manipulation LV2 (13%).

Since Qin Ya had no more medicinal drinks with her, Lin Yao had to lie on the bed in the research institute for more than three hours after the electric shock. He barely got up when the sun set in the evening.

Although he was awake, there was not much solar power left in his body, as it had been used to heal it. In the meantime, he was so exhausted that he had a splitting headache.

However, Lin Yao did not feel uncomfortable despite being tired. All he could think about was the advanced martial artist realm and the enhancement he would get after unleashing three vital energy seeds at one go. There was a smile at the corners of Lin Yao’s lips.

‘Now, I am on the same level as those people.’

There were mostly advanced martial artists in the youth competition in Ninghai City, followed by the peak martial artists and quasi martial artists who could break through but did not. As for warlords, there were only four of them.

Right now, Lin Yao had barely caught up with the rest of the martial artists.

It might seem that Lin Yao had poor talent, but this was not the case. Other advanced martial artists had talent or came from established families, so they had been developing for more than 10 years.

As for Lin Yao, he’d had no power or influence before awakening, and he had no foundation at all. After awakening, he had not become a diamond genius right away.

In the beginning, his talent had only been at the silver level, and he had benefited from the light talent, which was highly sought after. Afterward, Lin Yao had gone to the orphanage and fought hard in the mysterious land before his talent had finally increased bit by bit.

Now, his efforts had paid off. With the Armored Body Of Light and the Heavenly Thunder talent, in combination with Project Thunder God, which the country had studied for decades, Lin Yao took off and soared like a divine dragon flying in the wind and rain.

“I only needed one month to become an advanced martial artist. This is my current talent.”

Qin Ya watched quietly as Lin Yao smiled happily to himself. She finally spoke up when he calmed down. “Congratulations, Mr. Lin.”

“I have to thank you as well. Let’s talk and sign the contract at the coffee house nearby, and I will explain to you what I am going to do now.”

“Okay.”

Lin Yao stood up with Qin Ya and walked outside. He encountered Senior Sister Jiang Rong on the way and he naturally thanked her and invited her to join them. She gladly accepted.

“It just so happens that I’m off work too.”

“Then I will have to trouble you to look at the contract for me.”

“Forget it, I took the martial arts course.”

“You are still a student of the University of Monster Science and Technology.”

Lin Yao followed the two of them into the coffee house. After ordering coffee, he looked at the contract and did not notice any deceptive terms. However, Lin Yao still did not sign it immediately. He planned to go to a law firm tomorrow morning and have the lawyers go through the contract.

“Of course, you should do that. Let’s talk about your career plan first, Mr. Lin.”

Qin Ya adjusted her gold-wire framed spectacles, sat up straight on the seat, and said in a serious voice, “Mr. Lin Yao, you are participating in the competition in the city center. What you need to do now is do your best to play well. I will try to garner attention for you on the Internet. If you are lucky, you will have the opportunity to be the spokesperson of some dojos within a month and do live streams to increase your popularity.”

Lin Yao had thought of being a spokesperson for dojos, but he was not prepared to do live streams.

Besides, Lin Yao was not very pleased with the two plans that Qin Ya had arranged for him. In the past, he’d had no one to help him, so he knew that he had not been considered very clever. Thus, he had not done much. Now, he wanted to ask Qin Ya to explain further.

“Spokesperson and live-streams? This seems to be the path that celebrities take. Apart from this, is there anything else that I can do?”

“Not for now.”

Qin Ya left no room for discussion and refused right away. Lin Yao was stunned by her reply. Fortunately, although Qin Ya looked indifferent, she still explained to Lin Yao the reasoning behind her plans.

“Mr. Lin, your talent is very good, but talent is the only thing that you have right now. Before you transform your talent into strength, you can’t even defeat a middle-aged martial artist who is slightly talented.”

“Uh…”

Lin Yao could not argue. No matter how poor one’s talent was, a martial artist had practiced for decades and would therefore be better than Lin Yao.

At the same time, upon hearing her explanation, Lin Yao immediately understood Qin Ya’s reasoning. Therefore, he was not shocked by what she said next.

“You are not as powerful and experienced. Mr. Lin, if you plan to work on other projects now, there is no way you can compete with middle-aged martial artists. Besides, they already have no good projects to work on. What else do you think you can work on then?”
