“Not bad. As expected of a genius who has been glanced upon by the King of All-Knowing, your wisdom is truly extraordinary.”
Just then, a voice came from behind Jiang Lin.
It was Jing Yuan... Jing Yuan and Feixiao arrived at Jiang Lin's left and right simultaneously.
“If you are not here to apprehend me, then for what purpose have you gone to such great lengths?”
Jiang Lin looked at the lineup before him—three Emissaries and many Cloud Knights... This formation... If it were his former self, he would have surrendered immediately.
But if it were his current self... Hmm, at least retreating unharmed would be no problem... Whether he could win, he didn't know, as he had never truly fought an Emissary.
He could only roughly estimate an Emissary's combat power in his mind.
“If you are willing to be a guest on the Xianzhou, then the Xianzhou Alliance is willing to offer you some... resource assistance. And...”
Jing Yuan's tone was confident as he added,
“I believe there must be something you desire on the Luofu...”
Jiang Lin's brows furrowed. He did indeed have a need for what Jing Yuan mentioned, but how did he know?
He hadn't seen too much about himself being exposed... Feeling puzzled, Jiang Lin decided to ask directly:
“The Divine Foresight General is indeed extraordinarily shrewd.”
Jiang Lin first praised him, then his tone shifted.
“However, I have only known the General for a short time, and your understanding of my needs has reached an uncomfortable level.
May I ask, General, how did you come by this information?”
Jing Yuan was also stunned upon hearing this.
“Perhaps you could check the live stream?” Jing Yuan suggested.
Hearing this, Jiang Lin's heart instantly tightened, sensing that something bad was about to happen.
So he opened it and saw... “Elio: @Star, every word I say is true.”
“Star: Impossible, absolutely impossible! It's not like I haven't seen geniuses. Stop trying to fool me, I'm smart!”
“March 7th: Exactly, Asta is very smart.”
“Elio: You really shouldn't disbelieve me, @Jiang Lin, he's really poor. I bet he doesn't even have 5 Credit Points in his pocket right now.”
“Bailu: Doesn't that make him poorer than Star? Star gets 50 Credit Points in pocket money every day...”
“Asta: So not all geniuses are as lavish as Ms. Herta?”
“Topaz: Is there a possibility... that's because of you, Miss Asta...”
Hiss~ Jiang Lin saw this and instinctively checked his balance carefully... Then his mouth twitched. Elio was right... He really didn't even have 5 Credit Points right now... Yet Elio was still incessantly revealing his secrets in the live stream... “Elio: Let me tell you all... Not only is he poor, but he also likes to be abstract when he has nothing to do... And don't let his normal demeanor fool you; once he encounters something he's interested in, he goes crazy, and his laughter is so distinctive~”
Hearing this, Jiang Lin almost wanted to black out and faint... Does he not care about his reputation?
Does he care about his reputation or not?!
Although he complained internally, he didn't show much reaction on the surface, after all, he couldn't lose face a second time.
“Whew~”
Jiang Lin took a deep breath and looked at Jing Yuan.
“So how much do you know now?”
“A little.”
“If you don't want to say, then so be it. But since you are willing to pay such a great price to invite me to the Luofu, what exactly do you need me to do?”
Even though he already had a guess in his heart... he still had to ask clearly.
“Oh? It seems you are unaware of this matter... How about we talk as we go?”
Jing Yuan smiled and invited Jiang Lin.
“Alright.” After a moment of thought, Jiang Lin agreed to Jing Yuan's suggestion.
Although this opportunity to hunt Phantylia was rare, rare didn't mean nonexistent.
Besides, he might not even be able to find her... A few days had passed, Phantylia should have run away by now, right?
However, the Xianzhou truly had the miracles of abundance... In his heart, if there were a choice of Aeon miracles, he would absolutely not choose to hunt down any Emissaries.
After all, no matter how powerful an Emissary was, their essence was still a person blessed by an Aeon.
Unless he had no other choice, he would only then consider the remains of an Emissary... At the same time,
“Elio: Alright, alright, things are settled over there. Let's start today's video.”
“Herta: Is it finally starting? I'm quite interested in him too.”
“Yanqing: Eh? The two Generals rushed over after receiving the news, but they didn't fight?”
“Yun Li: I don't understand either...”
“Elio: This person is a dangerous individual.”
“March 7th: It seems all geniuses are quite dangerous, aren't they?”
“Boot Hill: As long as he's not like that little cutie, Primitive Doctor, it's fine.”
“Sparkle: Hehe, little cutie~”
“Elio: Primitive Doctor is the type who preys on civilizations weaker than him, bullying the weak. Do you think he would dare to conduct atavistic experiments on the Xianzhou Alliance?”
“Feixiao: If he really dared to come, the Alliance would be willing to rid the universe of such a menace.”
“Ranpo: Therefore, the Evil Monkey Ninja will definitely be hunted by all ninja heroes!”
“Elio: @Jiang Lin, this guy is different. He won't bother with those weaker than him... Instead, he covets those stronger than him.”
“March 7th: Huh?”
“Sparkle: @Interastral Peace Corporation, unable to select.”
“Ruan Mei: I wonder what fields this person excels in.”
“Herta: @Elio, stop saying useless things. I'm still wondering whether to pull him into the Simulated Universe project.”
“Elio: First, @Jiang Lin, do you know that your research results can alleviate Mara-Struck?”
“Fu Xuan: What do you mean? @Jing Yuan, you two rushed over so fast, it couldn't be because of this, could it? Damn it, you kept it from me!”
“Jing Yuan: @Fu Xuan, it was not intentional concealment. It's just that this matter is indeed extraordinary... Only the Marshal and we Heavenly Generals know about it.”
“Jiaoqiu: There's actually a cure for the long-life sickness...”
“Mo Ze: It's alleviation, not a cure.”
“Ling Sha: What?! How... how was this achieved?”
“Ruan Mei: Very interesting... @Jiang Lin, could you elaborate?”
“Elio: The reason for such an effect is probably because he is quite interested in... human consciousness or soul?”
