Dong is a follower of Lin Yuan and worships Lin Yuan as a god. Normally, it is difficult for Dong, who has lived to such an old age, to get angry, unless this person does something disrespectful to Lin Yuan!
Dong did not know Xi Mei and Cen Ruyi, the two level four creators before. Level four creators are big shots in the eyes of others, but in Dong's eyes, they are just ordinary people.
Lin Yuan has just risen in this life, and the fourth-level creators still have some weight in Lin Yuan's power, but soon the weight of these fourth-level creators will decrease.
Xi Mei, who is also a fourth-level creator, is much smarter than Cen Ruyi. She knows that as someone whose lifespan is about to run out, she is at a disadvantage compared to Lin Yuan, so she puts on an attitude of seeking help.
But this fourth-level creator named Cen Ruyi not only did not show an attitude of begging for help, but was even prepared to use his power to suppress Lin Yuan.
It seems that after becoming a fourth-level creator, Cen Ruyi has been flattered to the point that she can no longer see the world clearly!
Cen Ruyi and the four waiters who were trapped in the solid ice had their minds and souls in an extremely active state and were enduring endless pain brought by the ice.
"Master, please go in and have a cup of tea. Let me teach them properly!"
"This Level 4 Creator is even worse than Huang An at that time. If we don't teach him well, he will be useless!"
"If they really can't teach them well, I might as well just clear them all out. When the Palace Master of Fubao Palace outside the door asks about it, I can just find a random excuse to talk them over."
"It's normal for a Level 4 Creator to master teleportation!"
Lin Yuan nodded when he heard this. Lin Yuan intended to bring these creators under his command, but he would not force them if they were unwilling.
But Cen Ruyi, like Huang An, took the initiative to cause trouble for him. Facing someone who took the initiative to cause trouble for him, Lin Yuan could not just sit there and wait for death.
If such a person wants to cooperate, he really needs to be taught. The fourth-level creator named Cen Ruyi in this room treated him with such an attitude. Lin Yuan didn't even have the interest to talk to Cen Ruyi.
Lin Yuan has a means of long-distance teleportation in his hands, and can escape from the house directly as long as the space is not restricted. Ling Muzhuo will not doubt himself at all if he finds such a reason.
No one would think that they had killed a fourth-level creator in this hall.
Dong's strength far exceeded Cen Ruyi's, and he directly took control of Cen Ruyi.
Ling Muzhuo, who was outside, could not feel the energy fluctuations in the hall, and Lin Yuan felt that even if Ling Muzhuo knew the truth, he would be able to figure out which was more important, himself or a dead fourth-level creator.
By then, Ling Muzhuo will most likely take the initiative to cover for himself.
Xi Mei and Lin Yuan walked into the house and Xi Mei took the initiative to pour a cup of tea for Lin Yuan.
Xi Mei said softly as she handed the tea to Lin Yuan.
"Master Cen Ruyi's character is indeed not good, but Cen Ruyi's essence is not bad and his abilities are pretty good. He has many special secret recipes and is very good at cultivating dragon spirits."
While Xi Mei was secretly cursing Cen Ruyi's stupidity in her heart, she was also somewhat glad that she had just made the right choice.
If I also treat Lin Yuan in the same manner as Cen Ruyi, I will surely suffer the same fate as Cen Ruyi at this moment.
Cen Ruyi is not really stupid. Xi Mei feels that based on her understanding of Cen Ruyi, Cen Ruyi should hope to use this strong approach to ensure that she can trade for spiritual materials that can increase her lifespan from Lin Yuan.
Cen Ruyi is much more afraid of death than herself, and Xi Mei has no selfish motive in speaking well of Cen Ruyi to Lin Yuan.
Cen Ruyi once snatched Xi Mei's opportunity, and there is a grudge between them.
Xi Mei would speak up for Cen Ruyi just to do her job well.
Lin Yuan did not immediately drink the tea poured by Xi Mei. Instead, he took out some snacks and placed them on the dining table and said to Xi Mei.
"Since Master Xi Mei loves tea so much, why not try these special tea snacks? I bet Master Xi Mei has never eaten these special tea snacks on weekdays."
Without exception, these snacks were specially prepared by Zong Ze for Lin Yuan and they were Lin Yuan’s hometown food.
Xi Mei explained Cen Ruyi's value to herself at this time, which was equivalent to showing her vision to Lin Yuan.
Xi Mei did not sit next to Lin Yuan, but stood respectfully beside Lin Yuan and picked up a piece of exquisitely shaped snack and started to taste it.
This tea has a sweet taste, rich frankincense inside, and the fruity aroma adds more flavor to the frankincense.
Xi Mei is not a reserved person. She did not sit directly next to Lin Yuan because she felt Dong's respect for Lin Yuan.
People like Dong, who are much stronger than himself, would not eat at the same table with Lin Yuan and were extremely respectful to Lin Yuan.
If I sit directly in front of Lin Yuan and enjoy the meals, I will appear to be superior to Dong.
Xi Mei is a smart person and would never do such a thing.
"Master, these snacks are delicious. They are much better than those made by the chefs I hired before!"
"I'm afraid I'll be blessed with good food if I follow the young master from now on!"
Seeing that Xi Mei liked these snacks from his hometown, Lin Yuan smiled.
"Since you like Ximei, why not try it more!"
"After we have tasted these refreshments, it is about time to talk to Cen Ruyi. I hope that Cen Ruyi will not commit suicide again by then!"
Xi Mei was sure that Cen Ruyi had never thought that as a fourth-level creator, he would end up like this.
Cen Ruyi must have realized the gap and would have made the decision to surrender.
My current state is the best proof of Lin Yuan's ability.
Xi Mei no longer focused on Cen Ruyi. She had said everything she needed to say.
What will be Cen Ruyi's final fate is Cen Ruyi's own business. As long as Cen Ruyi is not stupid, she will definitely think clearly about what choice is most in line with her own interests.
Lin Yuan and Xi Mei were very comfortable taking sips of tea and taking bites of snacks. It took them nearly half an hour to finish enjoying the snacks.
After drinking the last sip of tea in the cup, Lin Yuan said to Dong.
"Dong, please let them out. I think they should want to talk to me now."
Upon hearing this, Dong hurriedly released Cen Ruyi and her followers.
After the ice melted, several people including Cen Ruyi lay weakly on the ground. Until now, they are still suffering from the cold and unable to recover.
Lin Yuan knew Dong's methods. If Cen Ruyi still couldn't learn her lesson in half an hour, then Cen Ruyi would be hopeless! Lin Yuan was not in a hurry. He waited until Cen Ruyi came to her senses and then turned his head to look at Cen Ruyi, waiting for Cen Ruyi to speak to him.
The endless bone-gnawing torture in the ice just now really frightened Cen Ruyi.
Cen Ruyi, who was trapped in the ice, could hear people talking outside.
Cen Ruyi did not expect Xi Mei to speak up for her, which made Cen Ruyi's look towards Xi Mei become somewhat complicated.
In any case, Cen Ruyi remembered Xi Mei's feelings for her.
Seeing Lin Yuan standing there looking at her, Cen Ruyi hurriedly lowered her head and said.
"Mr. Lin, I'm really sorry. I shouldn't have failed to manage my subordinates well and let them treat you like this!"
Cen Ruyi was interrupted by Lin Yuan before she could finish her words.
"I heard that you are very strict in managing your subordinates. I can see that your subordinates are very afraid of you!"
"How dare they do such a thing without your instruction!?"
"It seems that you did receive a lesson just now, but you only learned half of it."
"Dong, you made some mistakes in your teaching as a teacher!"
Lin Yuan's tone was extremely calm, but his words made Cen Ruyi's heart suddenly rise.
Just as Cen Ruyi was about to speak, the coldness enveloped her again, sealing her in solid ice.
Dong bent over and said to Lin Yuan.
"Young Master, I didn't teach her well. Give me ten minutes and either I make her learn her lesson or I will just get rid of her."
"There's no point in keeping someone like this around."
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Dong felt like murdering Cen Ruyi. Cen Ruyi was so stupid that she was still trying to find excuses for herself at this time.
In Dong's opinion, it was Cen Ruyi who made him mess up his job in front of Lin Yuan.
Xi Mei poured herself another cup of tea and took a few sips.
Rather than saying that Cen Ruyi was making excuses, it would be more accurate to say that she was just being stubborn in order to save her own face.
Cen Ruyi will definitely learn her lesson after this.
However, Lin Yuan's attitude towards Cen Ruyi is simply not comparable to his attitude towards himself. If I and Cen Ruyi work under Lin Yuan in the future, then Cen Ruyi will no longer be an opponent of me, but will become my subordinate and be managed by me.
Dong increased the intensity of Cen Ruyi's attack, and when he released Cen Ruyi, it took her nearly twenty minutes to recover.
This time, Cen Ruyi really learned her lesson. She didn't dare to explain to Lin Yuan anymore. Instead, she took the initiative to express her interest in joining Lin Yuan's team.
Cen Ruyi did not mention the matter of restoring her lifespan to Lin Yuan again. Her lifespan was almost gone, and if Lin Yuan was willing to accept her, he would definitely restore her lifespan.
Now all Cen Ruyi wants is to avoid being trapped in solid ice for the third time.
After taking Cen Ruyi under his command and taking control of Cen Ruyi's holy spirit, Lin Yuan did not directly hand the Longevity Rat to Cen Ruyi.
Lin Yuan did this for two reasons. On the one hand, even if he took Cen Ruyi under his command, Lin Yuan wanted to teach Cen Ruyi a lesson.
Secondly, Lin Yuan didn’t want Ling Muzhuo to think that he could help everyone who wanted to increase their lifespan.
If he could restore everyone's lifespan, Ling Muzhuo would inevitably become suspicious after a long time.
After making sure that Lin Yuan had already recruited Cen Ruyi, Xi Mei took the initiative to tell Cen Ruyi about Lin Yuan's previous instructions to her.
Cen Ruyi, who had learned her lesson completely, took note of Xi Mei's instructions to her, fearing that if she failed to do something well and angered Lin Yuan, she would have to endure endless punishment.
When Lin Yuan walked out of the door of the side hall, he saw Ling Muzhuo who was waiting there. When Ling Muzhuo saw Lin Yuan, he hurriedly came up to him and asked Lin Yuan with a smile.
"How is Brother Lin doing? Have you helped Mr. Cen Ruyi restore his life span?"
Ling Muzhuo, who had been guarding outside, did not feel the fluctuation of energy and did not think that Lin Yuan and Cen Ruyi had a conflict.
While asking Ling Muzhuo, he looked behind Lin Yuan.
When she saw Cen Ruyi walking out following Lin Yuan, she didn't regain her youthful appearance like Xi Mei, but still looked old.
He knew that the spiritual material in Lin Yuan's hand must have failed to successfully restore Cen Ruyi's lifespan.
This made Ling Muzhuo a little worried whether Lin Yuan could restore the lifespan of Master Yihe, a level 5 creator.
I have just reported to Master Yihe the news that Xi Mei's life span has recovered, which has aroused Master Yihe's interest and confidence.
If Lin Yuan failed, wouldn't it be equivalent to spreading false information?
Lin Yuan said indifferently.
"Brother Ling, you don't really think I have a magic medicine, do you? Anyone can help."
"I don't have such ability!"
"It has taken me nearly five hours since I met with Lord Xi Mei. I hope Brother Ling can take me to see the Level 5 Creator first."
"We can talk about this after I meet this Level 5 Creator. I don't want to keep this Level 5 Creator waiting for too long."
"Just now, Lord Cen Ruyi got angry because he waited for me for more than two hours. Fortunately, Lord Cen Ruyi did not blame me in the end."
Hearing Lin Yuan's words, Cen Ruyi's mouth twitched wildly. She was indeed angry because she had waited for Lin Yuan for more than two hours, and she had also caused trouble for Lin Yuan.
But in the end, it was not that I did not blame Lin Yuan, but that Lin Yuan chose to forgive me after punishing me.
Although what Lin Yuan said was not true, Cen Ruyi did not dare to refute Lin Yuan's words.
Ling Muzhuo felt a little regretful that Lin Yuan failed to help Cen Ruyi restore her lifespan, and that Cen Ruyi failed to owe him a favor.
Even though Cen Ruyi's life span was running out, Ling Muzhuo still spoke to Cen Ruyi very warmly.
"Even though I was unable to help you this time, Mr. Cen Ruyi, I will try my best to help you find spiritual materials that can increase your lifespan in the future."
"I will let you know as soon as I find it!"
Cen Ruyi knew that Ling Muzhuo was just being polite, and that Fubao Palace also needed spiritual materials that could increase lifespan.
Even if Ling Muzhuo really found it, he would give it to Fubao Palace first rather than himself.
If Cen Ruyi had not been controlled by Lin Yuan, she would have snorted coldly and left.
Thinking of Xi Mei's instructions to her just now, Cen Ruyi said to Ling Muzhuo.
"Palace Master Ling, although Master Lin was unable to restore my lifespan, he was still able to help me."
"Thank you for introducing Master Lin to me!"
"Mr. Lin has wasted quite a bit of time here with me. You should take Mr. Lin there quickly and don't keep that Level 5 Creator waiting for too long!"
Cen Ruyi's words brought a smile to Ling Muzhuo's face.
Ling Muzhuo didn't expect that even if Lin Yuan failed to help Cen Ruyi restore her lifespan, Cen Ruyi would still accept his favor.
This made Ling Muzhuo decide to spend more time and effort to help Lin Yuan and introduce some creators whose lifespans were about to end. (End of this chapter)
