Chapter 840: Chapter 840: Naive Sweetheart
Not long after leaving the Undead Space, Ziyue’s figure appeared in front of Lin Yi.
He thought it would be a long time before they met again after joining the Dark Rising, but unexpectedly, just a few days later, Ziyue was standing before him again. It seemed the Dark Rising Organization was indeed paying close attention to him.
“I wonder what brings you to me this time, Sister Ziyue.”
Lin Yi carried himself as the perfect gentleman.
On the top floor of the central tower on Aiven Star, Lin Yi poured a drink for Ziyue as the wind blew gently.
This drink was similar to tea leaves from Blue Star, brewed in a similar way.
It served the same purpose, suitable for guests, but the taste differed significantly, resembling honey more, making it very refreshing to drink.
From the top of the central tower, one could clearly see the martial artists on Aiven Star working in an orderly fashion, with the less powerful ones laboriously exploiting the planet’s resources.
They were completely oblivious to the fact that their actions were already threatening the very foundation of the planet’s existence.
Xinyan stood by gracefully, pouring tea for the two.
The gentle breeze on the face and the sweet taste of the drink made this life feel utterly pleasant.
“Your abilities are far stronger than I imagined; in just a few short days, everything is proceeding in an orderly manner according to your plan. You truly haven’t disappointed me, nor the superiors.”
With polite flattery, Lin Yi responded with a courteous smile.
“Moreover, what you did on Depp Star, we all observed, and it was quite impressive. Such actions allow us to speed up the collection of Source Power without drawing the attention of the All Celestial Divine Beings due to any damages caused to Depp Star.”
“Do you plan to continue next?”
Of course, it has to continue.
There aren’t enough materials to activate the special attributes of the equipment.
It must continue, otherwise, who else would be counted on to find these materials?
“Dark Rising gave me this opportunity and also the method of refining Source Power. As a member of Dark Rising, I cannot just take advantage; helping the Dark Rising Organization on this planet to accelerate the collection of Source Power is the least I can do.”
After hearing Lin Yi’s words, even Ziyue was momentarily stunned.
The reason Dark Rising was so focused on Lin Yi was because of the Great Saint’s Residual Soul and the soul of Wo Zhiqi within him.
To obtain these two things, Dark Rising even specifically devised a series of plans for Lin Yi.
In previous conversations, Ziyue felt Lin Yi wasn’t an easy person to deal with; he rejected Dark Rising’s offers to avoid being manipulated.
This forced Ziyue to make plans targeting Lin Yi.
Now, with Lin Yi’s change in attitude, Ziyue couldn’t help but reassess the young man before her.
“Are you serious? Members of Dark Rising have no such targets like extinction of stars, so there’s no need for such eagerness in your actions. Although you’re very powerful, the Ten Thousand Realms are vast, and you’ll eventually encounter adversaries difficult to handle. You only have one life.”
At this moment, Lin Yi’s gaze was extremely firm, as if he were about to enter a league, he solemnly nodded, responding to Ziyue’s words.
“Since I was a child, my parents told me to do things according to my capabilities. After gaining power, I must not get arrogant, so I’ve decided to do more for Dark Rising.”
Upon hearing this, Ziyue finally wavered in her determination to eliminate Lin Yi.
She then revealed the purpose of her visit to Lin Yi.
“In that case, I wish you a bright future. Here’s a reward for becoming a member of Dark Rising.”
Ziyue took out a delicate crystal box.
The transparency allowed Lin Yi to see the item inside through the box.
They were four emerald green pills.
Lin Yi immediately recognized what they were.
But to avoid unnecessary trouble, Lin Yi feigned curiosity, inquiring about the item in front of him.
“You wouldn’t know this. This item is called the Source Power Elixir, the final product after refining the Source Power you’ve collected. With your current ability, you wouldn’t have access to this, but don’t worry. The Dark Rising Association will give it to you. Every person who earnestly serves them is favored by Dark Rising.”
Saying this, Ziyue handed the item to Lin Yi.
By sensing the Source Power emanating from it, Lin Yi knew what he held was genuine.
He truly hadn’t expected that the Dark Rising Organization would be so generous and provide such a rich reward.
Of course, Ziyue didn’t just bring four Source Power Elixirs.
To ensure Lin Yi’s subsequent tasks proceed smoothly, Ziyue compiled information about nearby planets and laid out those suitable for Lin Yi’s actions.
The purpose was to make Lin Yi’s task execution as convenient as possible.
Time passed quickly.
With Ziyue’s help, within just a week, Lin Yi had already gathered all the materials needed to activate the special attribute.
Before Lin Yi could activate the special attributes of his equipment, he received a letter.
This letter was given by the Dark Rising Association.
The Dark Rising Organization is vast, spanning all heavens and myriads of worlds.
Yet, only a small part of the organizations and individuals burdened with carrying Dark Rising can truly enjoy the benefits brought by the organization.
Opening the letter and reading its contents, Lin Yi couldn’t help but frown.
“It shouldn’t be. This organization has been so cautious, hiding for so many years, how could they stage such an event.”
“It truly is surprising.”
The letter was distributed through the medium of the Dark Rising Ring.
The content was simple: a gathering.
The eyes of the All Celestial Divine Beings were spread throughout the Three Realms and Six Paths, making it difficult to seize a portion of Source Power from their hands without being noticed.
But the members of the Dark Rising Organization acted with great caution. Since its establishment, the Celestial Divine Beings only detected that a unique organization was dividing Source Power that should belong to them, yet they were unaware of the detailed information about Dark Rising.
This action by Dark Rising was clearly inconsistent with their style.
“The location is on Antar Star, a planet in the middle Realm Human Path. After reviewing the shared information of this Dark Rising Organization, I didn’t find anything unusual about this planet.”
Possessing the Power of the Primordial and Divine Power, Xiyue was also targeted by the Dark Rising Organization and became one of its members.
After seriously examining the shared information in the ring, Xiyue earnestly joined in the conversation with Lin Yi.
This made Lin Yi burst into laughter.
Who could resist laughing in front of such a naive, innocent person?
“What do you mean, did I analyze something wrong?”
Xiyue pouted and complained to Lin Yi.
This girl had witnessed so much ugliness, yet still didn’t understand the cruel law of this world.
Whether it was the self-proclaimed righteous, the All Celestial Divine Beings, or the Dark Rising Association secretly seizing resources, weren’t they all organizations built on the foundation of interests?
What difference does such an organization have from those capitalists that devour everything without a trace?
“You’re too naive.”
