2488 Don’t Do Anything Stupid!
They did not even have the most basic sense of wariness. Such Samsara Realm Dictators were not worth utilizing.

Lin Yuan felt that Evening Crystal was the only one who would be worth connecting with after he took control of them.

If Evening Crystal turned out to be capable, Lin Yuan could rely on her from now on.

Lin Yuan would definitely keep the other pinnacle Samsara Realm Dictators so he could use them to conquer the alien insect world.

Lin Yuan could not take full control of the subterranean world until he produced the subterranean world’s treasure.

But due to the complex terrain of the marsh world, it was possible that the news of him trying to take over the subterranean world would reach some Dictators and cause them to go into hiding.

Hence, he had to leave more than one Samsara Realm Dictator behind to watch the subterranean world.

There needed to be a leader amongst these Samsara Realm Dictators.

Lin Yuan looked at Red Thorn seated on his shoulder and said, “Red Thorn. Take control of them. If any of them tries to resist, break their source totems.”

Red Thorn immediately instructed the Abyss Great Emperor to release his Afterlife Realm aura.
The Afterlife Realm expert’s aura was extremely ferocious. Evening Crystal, Lhalu, and Ice Forest had no time to react before the aura choked them. Their legs lost all strength, and they fell to their knees.

All three of them were floored.

The three of them all came from the Earth Ancestral Palace, and the aura of the three figures from the Earth Ancestral Palace could not be compared with the aura that they were feeling.

The three of them had been able to resist the auras of the three figures from the Earth Ancestral Palace but were completely stripped of their courage when facing this figure’s aura.

Lin Yuan spoke in the subterranean world’s language. The three of them had no doubts that the lifeform that this aura belonged to had the ability to shatter their source totems.

Ice Forest and Lhalu, who had been entranced by their beauty, promptly woke up and came to several realizations.

It was likely that Sweet Vanquish was also under control and had been taken hostage earlier than they had.

Given that the other party chose not to kill Sweet Vanquish and accepted his loyalty instead made it likely he would not kill them either.

Lhalu, Ice Forest, and Evening Crystal had thought about resisting, but these thoughts did not last long. If they tried to resist, the only result would be death. Thus, any attempts to do so would waste the years of effort that had gone into increasing their powers.

There was no doubt that he was going to take control of them. But what they needed to think about was how they could do so while still securing as many benefits as possible. It would be much humiliating if they ended up being ranked below Sweet Vanquish!

Unfortunately, Lhalu and Ice Forest had no idea that Lin Yuan did not consider them to be valuable at all, so they had no leverage that they could use to negotiate their terms.

Evening Crystal was the most stubborn of them all.

Now that she was under duress, she wanted to fight back.

At that moment, she heard Sweet Vanquish communicating with her through their souls, “Evening Crystal, our only choice is to become loyal to this Lord. I trust that you’ll make the right choice. Don’t leap toward death! Don’t do anything stupid!”

Sweet Vanquish knew that Lin Yuan would definitely sense his soul communication. Yet, he still did so because he was trying to help Lin Yuan persuade Evening Crystal. Thus, Lin Yuan would not place blame on him.

Sweet Vanquish’s words set Evening Crystal at ease, and she stopped pushing hard against the ground and let herself kneel fully and comfortably.

At that moment, Ice Forest’s hoarse voice sounded out. “Lord, I am willing to become loyal to you! I hope that you will allow Lhalu and me to manage Sweet Vanquish and Evening Crystal in the future! We are both stronger than Evening Crystal. Lhalu has the Vein Land Imp bloodline, which is many times more elite than Sweet Vanquish’s bloodline!”

Ice Forest believed that his request was more likely to be granted since he had willingly offered his loyalty.

Furthermore, he had only spoken the truth and even tied Lhalu to himself so they both had access to the same potential benefits. It was unlikely that Lhalu would oppose his actions.

This act of tying two people together demonstrated the power of strength in numbers.

Red Beauty and Blue Umber shared a look when they heard what Ice Forest said. They felt that he not only lacked a sense of wariness when being threatened but was extremely shortsighted as well!

From Sweet Vanquish’s reaction, Red Beauty and Blue Umber could be certain of one thing. He saw them as his rivals from the moment he became loyal to Lin Yuan and had been secretly competing with them ever since.

However, he would not act too ostentatiously.

While the two of them were scorning him, he still tried to establish a positive relationship with them while simultaneously competing with them on the down low.

This behavior was exactly that of infighting in a powerful organization.

Sweet Vanquish had cleverly predicted what the situation would be like after he became loyal to Lin Yuan.

However, Ice Forest was still only focused on Sweet Vanquish and Evening Crystal. He was not aware of the truth of the situation at all.

Red Beauty and Blue Umber were rather suspicious. How did such a character make it in the subterranean world? Was the subterranean world an easier environment to live in than the water world?

From Lhalu’s words, Ice Forest sensed that something was wrong. Given the circumstances, he felt there was no point in trying to fight with Sweet Vanquish and Evening Crystal.

Rather than fighting to retain autonomy, it was more important to try to gain favor with the master.

Although he had sensed that something was off, Lhalu did not say anything about it because he knew that he might let slip something that resulted in them failing to achieve their goal. It might even cause him to lose an ally in Ice Forest who had voluntarily bound the two of them together.

Lin Yuan looked at Ice Forest, but unlike what Ice Forest expected, he did not agree to his request. Instead, he hissed at the three of them. “You either submit or die! Your source totems might be more valuable to me rather than your living selves! If you intend to become loyal to me, swear it on your source totems! I don’t want to waste too much time on you.”

After Lin Yuan was done speaking, Evening Crystal was the first to swear her loyalty on her source totem.

Neither Lhalu nor Ice Forest had expected the situation to take such a turn.

The two of them had already decided to become loyal to Lin Yuan. All they were trying to do was gain some benefits before they gave away their loyalty.

But in the end, not only did they fail to obtain a sliver of benefits and even ended up angering this figure and allowing Evening Crystal to outperform them.

Very few Samsara Realm Dictators were willing to accept such a price.

However, the current circumstances were the most important consideration. They were in the midst of a life-or-death situation, so there was no margin for error.

Ice Forest and Lhalu had no choice but to follow Evening Crystal and swear on their source totems to become loyal to Lin Yuan.

From Lin Yuan’s attitude, the two of them could guess they would not receive much acknowledgment from him from now on.
