“Does it not make sense?” Wu Tong slightly shook his head. “President Hong Yuan, I must say, I don’t like hearing that. Dayan is a vassal state of our Yun Hao Empire, and as an envoy from the sovereign state, is there anything unreasonable about showing concern for a prodigy from a vassal state who feels aggrieved?”
Hong Yuan fell silent for a moment.
The threat implicit in those words, he had heard it.
The others gathered around had also perceived it.
Regret instantly appeared on their faces.
Updated by ℕ○vG○.c○Before them, in the face of the power Lin Su demonstrated through Guardian Beast Co-operation, avarice had nearly driven them mad, and they had been eager to unearth the truth from this young man’s lips.
Now, as Wu Tong openly courted Lin Su to join the Yun Hao Empire, they realized something very important.
Their prior actions had likely pushed Lin Su toward the Yun Hao Empire.
But now, whatever they said seemed too late.
All they could do was maintain their silence.Standing in front of Lin Su, Mu Yuxing opened his mouth but then closed it again.
From his standpoint, he, of course, did not wish for Lin Su to join the Yun Hao Empire.
But thinking of how everyone had just treated Lin Su, Mu Yuxing chose to remain silent.
Wu Tong was right, by joining the Yun Hao Empire, Lin Su could receive better treatment. In Lin Su’s case, even being admitted as a Disciple in the upper sects without the usual qualifications wouldn’t be difficult.
Updated by N○vG○.c○Dayan did not even possess the means to contact the Immortal Phoenix Sect.
Thus, facing Lin Su’s gaze, Mu Yuxing opted to keep silent, even closing his eyes.
He decided not to influence Lin Su’s decision, letting Lin Su choose everything by himself.
Seeing this, a smug look filled Wu Tong’s eyes even more.
He hadn’t fully believed what Lin Su had said.
Even with Mu Yuxing’s demonstration, he had only believed a fraction of it.
But that did not prevent him from taking action.
Lin Su couldn’t represent Dayan in the competition among nations.
That was Wu Tong’s bottom line.
Clearly feeling the growing power of Lin Su under Guardian Beast Co-operation was more visceral than just observing it on a screen.
This special Secret Technique called Guardian Beast Co-operation not only allowed the Beast Tamer to merge with his beast, overcoming the Beast Tamer’s own physical weakness, but it also greatly enhanced their strength, yielding power greater than the beast itself.
He was sure that once Lin Su appeared before the Immortal Phoenix Sect, they would definitely be interested.
Not to mention a common Disciple, even the position of a Direct Disciple might be directly available.
Therefore, Lin Su representing Dayan in the competition would certainly bring substantial resources from the upper sects as a reward, allowing Dayan’s strength to rapidly increase in a short time.
At that point, Wu Tong, who had done nothing, might find himself on a path leading to death once he was held accountable.
Therefore, courting Lin Su had become a necessity.
Initially, he had planned to contact Lin Su privately after the event.
Given the pressure from everyone, Lin Su’s good feelings towards Dayan had surely dropped to their lowest.
The timing seemed just right to make his move.
However, due to Hong Yuan’s change of attitude, the atmosphere in the room seemed to be warming up again.
This made Wu Tong unable to sit still.
Without delay, Wu Tong instantly decided to change his plan and publicly court Lin Su.
With the vast disparity in strength between the Yun Hao Empire and Dayan, drawing Lin Su into the Yun Hao Empire was something nobody dared to obstruct during this process; this emboldened him.
And indeed, this was the case; after he had leveraged the relationship of Dayan simply being a vassal state of the Yun Hao Empire, Hong Yuan could only silently stand by and watch.
And now, this strong protector who had been guarding Lin Su throughout also chose to remain silent.
Excitement was evident in Wu Tong’s eyes.
He believed that without anyone else interfering, Lin Su would definitely make the right choice.
Come on!
Tell me!
What is your choice?
“Young friend, you need not worry about others,” Wu Tong’s smile deepened as he looked at Lin Su. “If you agree, you are one of us in Yun Hao, and if anyone in Dayan were to obstruct a Yun Hao person…”
“Yun Hao will certainly send troops! Swords pointed at Dayan!”
Hearing these words laden with such strong threatening tones, everyone’s faces showed anger.
But at that moment, no one dared to speak.
If the Yun Hao Empire truly used this as a pretext to deploy troops, all of Dayan would be plunged into misery.
They could only hope that Lin Su would refuse Wu Tong.
But thinking about it, they felt this was akin to a pipe dream.
Wu Tong’s offer was too tempting, and putting themselves in his position, even they would be tempted.
Moreover, just moments ago, they had nearly offended this suddenly emerged prodigy due to their impulsive greed.
With this in mind, the crowd’s gaze towards Lin Su carried a hint of nervousness.
Under the various gazes of the crowd, Lin Su calmly shook his head, “I apologize, but I have no plans for that.”
After everything that had happened, his disappointment with the Beast Taming Union had deepened.
But the Beast Taming Union did not represent Dayan.
His home was here, the Lin Family was his only attachment in this world.
So wherever the Lin Family was, there he would be.
There was no reason to run off to the Yun Hao Empire because of this.
However, Wu Tong’s mention that the upper sects might be interested in his Guardian Beast Co-operation and might directly recruit him as a Disciple even without the competition among nations had alerted him.
In the competition among nations, only the top hundred prodigies could be recruited as Disciples by the six great upper sects.
But if he displayed more of his Guardian Beast Co-operation techniques on the battlefield of prodigies and caught the attention of the upper sects, could he possibly be specially recruited by the Immortal Phoenix Sect without being in the top hundred?
