2250 Gathering of Dictators!

The other Dictators did not believe that Dictator Return to Ruins was heading to the Banquet of Everything for his original purpose. He had to have discovered something in Marsh East Circle to lead him to make such a big move.

As a result, many Dictators turned their attention to Marsh East Circle and decided to use the Banquet of Everything as well to go and take a look.

The five marsh circles were promptly stirred up into a huge wave of commotion.

Lin Yuan, who was rushing to the Banquet of Everything to gather resources, was completely oblivious to this.

Since Marsh Abyss was the core of the marsh world, it was extremely expansive.

The Apostles and Dictators from the six major marsh circles all assumed that everything was calm in Marsh Abyss. This was because news from Marsh Abyss rarely got out.

But it was only when these Apostles and Dictators from the six major marsh circles arrived at Marsh Abyss that they realized that fights were abound in the marsh world.

The only ones who survived in Marsh Abyss were those who were powerful enough to remain standing and those who piggybacked on these lifeforms.

Apart from these cases, accidents could happen at any moment in Marsh Abyss.

A figure dripping with black fluids was sitting within a palace that was next to the Palace of Everything.

The black fluids moved, writhed, and screeched as though they were the souls of the damned.

Occasionally, flecks of crimson light peeked through the fluids and turned into dark red worms that climbed up the body of this figure.

A flirtatious peal of laughter drifted out from the figure cloaked in black fluids.

“Hehe! Here I was trying to find an excuse to attend the Banquet of Everything to see if my sister can be harvested now that she has entered the Turning Wheel Realm.

“Lord Eternal Source doesn’t permit veteran Dictators from laying a hand on Dictators who have only just freshly entered the Turning Wheel Realm. Many sinners have been killed for this. Those sinners’ source tattoos are still hanging in Eternal Source Palace.

“I’m really afraid too! But as long as I stay under the radar and in a sterile place like Marsh East Circle, Lord Eternal Source shouldn’t be keeping that close of a watch.

“It’s almost time for Return to Ruins to enter the Turning Wheel Realm too. Return to Ruins won’t be acting so outlandish if he’s trying to enter the Turning Wheel Realm. It seems like he has encountered some troubles while trying to break through. With Return to Ruins’ brains and personality, he must be trying to solve his issues by setting his eye on Everything, who has only just entered the Turning Wheel Realm.

“I have been keeping my eye out for Return to Ruins for a very long time. I should be able to collect a double harvest this time. I am part of Lordess Evil Source’s camp. As long as I share some of the offerings with Lordess Evil Source, I’m sure she will be willing to protect me even if word gets out!”

The female figure disappeared from the black and red hall. This disappearance went unnoticed by all, even the eight Apostles standing outside the hall.

…

Lin Yuan accepted far more than 20 followers while he was on White Speak’s back and dashing through the marsh world.

Besides these followers, more than 100 Apostles had received the Deposit Ability Litchi Branches from him.

This allowed him to accumulate many more times the amount of power than he had in the past six months of his marsh world territory’s development.

His identity as a Dictator gave him an additional level of protection and authority in the marsh world.

This allowed Lin Yuan to realize that if he ever discovered the Freedom Federation’s territory in the marsh world, he could even use his identity as a Dictator to decimate the Freedom Federation’s territory without doing any of the work himself.

Although White Speak had come to understand many things, it felt increasing pressure with every follower that Lin Yuan gained. The pressure caused White Speak to feel an explainable inferiority.

Lin Yuan picked up on White Speak’s feelings easily.

He did not want White Speak to continue being weighed down by that pressure. Instead, he injected another 500 units of pure source-type power into White Speak’s body while he said, “White Speak, you have already been with me for some time. I intend to have you lead the Apostles who are following me.”

White Speak relaxed when it heard this. It was very touched when it sensed the 500 units flowing into its body.

With Lin Yuan’s promise, it would occupy a high position in the future. It did not have to be threatened by these Apostles and could even manage them as its subordinates.

But as touched as it was, White Speak did not respond to Lin Yuan immediately. Instead, it pondered for a moment before saying solemnly, “Lord Dictator, I don’t think I’m capable of taking up this task. I—”

Lin Yuan cut off White Speak before it finished speaking.

Lin Yuan was very happy to hear White Speak say this at such a time. It showed that it was a rational and responsible lifeform. He was not wrong for selecting and relying on it.

“White Speak, it’s true that you aren’t strong enough now. But you are smart enough and can learn anything quickly. This is your advantage! You’ll eventually be up to the job as long as you can use this advantage. I look forward to seeing the day when you grow to that point. Before that happens, I’ll arrange for two capable assistants for you. They will not only be your assistants, but you’ll also be able to learn from them for a long time.”

Lin Yuan spoke casually, but White Speak heard words that were full of hope of affection.

Since Lin Yuan had already said this, there was no way that White Speak would continue turning him down.

White Speak took a deep breath before saying seriously, “Lord Lin Yuan, don’t worry. I will definitely try to meet your goal as soon as possible and do a good job of managing them!”

White Speak had changed the way that it addressed Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan was well aware of what this change signified. It signified that they were now closer than they had been, that there was companionship between them besides just respect and worship.

This was the relationship that Lin Yuan hoped to have with White Speak.

When Lin Yuan arrived at Marsh East Palace, the name Dictator Ten Thousand Source and the mystical effects of the small source fruits had spread throughout the entire Marsh East Circle and even slightly beyond.

At that moment, all the veteran Apostles in Marsh East Palace were gazing at two purple-haired girls courteously and warmly.
