The notification sound from the space indicating that the reward had been credited to my account never stopped.
Lin Yuan found it too noisy and simply blocked it.
He casually tossed the top-grade energy stone ore into his spatial storage as if picking up trash.
The fire beast and wind spirit beast, who were staying in the space, were initially very excited, but gradually became numb, and eventually simply stopped caring about it.
Sometimes, having too many good things can actually make a beast want to get tired of them.
There's only a limited time in a day, and Lei Jing owns too many energy stars—several hundred in total.
This is only his personal property; his family's property remains untouched.
When he took Lin Yuan back, he told the young emperor about it.
The young emperor was so excited that he wanted to offer up all the energy stars under his name and have Lin Yuan help him mine them!
"Your Majesty! Absolutely not!"
Startled by his impulsive nature, Lei Jing quickly stopped him.
Now that it was just the two of them, they were much more relaxed in their speech and actions.
The little emperor tilted his head and looked at him, asking, "Why not? Wasn't he very powerful? Look at this top-grade energy stone, it even exceeded the limits of the existing energy meters!"
This is an incredible boon for the entire Azure Dragon Empire.
Previously, because mining technology was not feasible, the entire interstellar space was like a gold mine that could only be viewed from the sidelines.
Now that it can finally be used, why can't it be done this way again?
"Have you forgotten that we're not the only ones here? There are other orcs and insectoids too?"
Lei Jing looked helplessly at the young emperor and reminded him.
His Majesty is excellent in every way. Although he is young, he is very steady in his dealings with others. Since ascending the throne, all the matters he has handled have been praised by thousands.
But it is only when he is alone with his family and friends that he reveals the innocence and simplicity that is unique to young people.
This isn't a bad thing, but someone needs to remind him that he can't be too naive.
That would only put him in danger.
"Oh right, I almost forgot about these troublesome guys."
The little emperor pouted in dissatisfaction.
Although the orcs belong to the Azure Dragon Empire, they actually have their own vassal states. If they were to know this, they would probably have different thoughts.
At that time, Lin Yuan will become the target of public criticism.
The number of people who want to take him away, hurt him, or even possess him will only increase.
The resulting chaos is unimaginable.
As for the Zerg, although they can also devour energy mines, strangely enough, they don't seem to be able to fully absorb even the highest quality energy mines.
Otherwise, the Zerg wouldn't be evolving so slowly these days.
Having figured these things out, he felt quite gratified.
At least Lin Yuan is now on the side of humanity!
"Therefore, we should handle these matters privately first, and not on a large scale."
Lei Jing whispered a reminder.
Moreover, the interests must first be secured with the royal family.
The ministers were not entirely loyal to the emperor either.
He understood the difference between close and distant relationships.
Even if the young emperor was unwilling, he could only entrust the matter entirely to Lei Jing and instruct him to keep Lin Yuan in check and not let him be seduced by others!
"A-choo!"
Lin Yuan, who was resting at Lei Jing's home, suddenly sneezed.
He paused for a moment, and a series of images flashed through his mind.
After learning where it came from, he smiled dismissively.
Everyone has selfish desires, and even the emperor of an interstellar civilization is no exception.
Fortunately, what they said in private was not detrimental to him; otherwise, he could have cut off cooperation with them at any time.
"Xiao Yuan, I can sense your spiritual power surging. Is it a bit unstable? Do you need to go to the space for a while?"
Jiang Rushi came to cultivate with him as usual, but was startled by the fluctuations of spiritual energy around him.
