Chapter 505 - 285: Yin Song’s Decision
Chapter 505: Chapter 285: Yin Song’s Decision
This earned Zhong Yi tens of thousands more Divine Origin Value.
After finishing his exploration of the Secret Realm, Zhong Yi’s mind felt muddled and groggy.
But Zhong Yi hadn’t forgotten that Xie Liansi and Yin Song should be waiting for him in the Soul Fighting Bar.
Zhong Yi forced himself to perk up and went to the Soul Fighting Bar.
He found that both Xie Liansi and Yin Song were on the Soul Fighting Platform, engaged in Soul of Battle duels.
When the staff members inside the Soul Fighting Bar saw Zhong Yi arrive, they immediately greeted him with enthusiasm.
This was especially true for the bar’s supervisor, Xu Nan, who had spoken with Zhong Yi before.
He treated Zhong Yi with even more warmth than last time.
Never mind that Zhong Yi was a Steward of the Wanyu Source Material Company, holding a core management position among the Four Major Companies.
Just his status as a Zhenxing C Level Talent or the owner of a Second Level Monopolizer Badge alone was enough to make Xu Nan pay special attention to him.
On top of that, Xu Nan had heard news in the past two days that Zhong Yi was listed in the Creation Sequence.
Zhong Yi was simply too young, and his personal strength was at the Second Level.
Although Xu Nan had his doubts about the authenticity of this news, he knew that as Zhong Yi’s strength continued to grow, he would very likely become the highest-status person Xu Nan had ever come into contact with.
Xu Nan would definitely do his best to accommodate such a figure.
Just then, a C Level Talent happened to arrive at the Soul Fighting Bar.
He saw Xu Nan and several other staff members of the Soul Fighting Bar gathered around the young man, completely ignoring him.
This couldn’t help but displease the C Level Talent.
Normally, whenever a C Level Talent came by, Xu Nan would personally greet them.
But this time, Xu Nan gestured for two other staff members to handle the C Level Talent.
The C Level Talent sensed the differential treatment, his face darkened, and he let out a heavy, muffled grunt.
Radiating an extremely foul mood, he followed the two staff members to a private Soul Fighting Room on the second floor.
Xu Nan was afraid this would displease Zhong Yi. After all, young people were often the most intolerant of others’ sour faces.
However, to his surprise, Zhong Yi didn’t seem to care at all.
Zhong Yi’s gaze fell on the upright hair crown Xie Liansi wore.
This meant his Soul Taming Seed had successfully allowed Xie Liansi’s Bloodline to advance from the Double Bun stage, surpassing the Piled-up Hairdo stage.
As for Yin Song, there were no obvious changes.
Xie Liansi was the first to regain consciousness on the Soul Fighting Platform.
Seeing Zhong Yi, Xie Liansi immediately left the Soul Fighting Platform and walked toward him.
Seeing this, Zhong Yi signaled to Xu Nan that he had something to discuss with Xie Liansi.
After bowing to Zhong Yi, Xu Nan hastily led the staff members of the Soul Fighting Bar away from the area.
Xie Liansi looked at Zhong Yi, feeling that the person who had been lingering in her mind for the past few days now felt even closer.
Xie Liansi pursed her lips and asked in a low voice.
"Did my Bloodline advance by skipping a level because of you?"
Hearing this, Zhong Yi smiled and nodded at Xie Liansi.
He pointed to Yin Song, who was still on the Soul Fighting Platform, and said.
"In a moment, I’ll take you two to my lounge."
"We can talk about whatever you want once we’re in the lounge."
"There are too many people and listening ears here. I don’t want anyone else to overhear our conversation."
Xie Liansi hadn’t encountered Yin Song before in the Divine Origin Slaughter Secret Realm.
But hearing Zhong Yi’s words, she turned her gaze to Yin Song.
She stood quietly beside Zhong Yi, waiting for Yin Song to finish his battle.
While Xie Liansi was extremely extroverted, even frenzied, in battle, she had a very quiet personality otherwise.
When Yin Song opened his eyes on the Soul Fighting Platform and saw Zhong Yi, a brilliant smile immediately broke out on his baby face, and he trotted over to Zhong Yi’s side.
Before Yin Song could speak, Zhong Yi took the initiative to add both him and Xie Liansi as friends.
Then he teleported into his lounge and sent them both an invitation message.
Once Yin Song and Xie Liansi arrived in Zhong Yi’s lounge, Zhong Yi first asked about their preferences and then made a large glass of juice for each of them.
Leaning back on the sofa, Zhong Yi felt his mind growing increasingly groggy and couldn’t help but frown.
Xie Liansi was the first to notice this and asked in a low voice.
"Are you not feeling well?"
"My home world produces a material from Hair-Tie Grass Seed Pods."
"This material works wonders on injuries to the soul."
Zhong Yi shook his head gently.
"I just finished a Second Level Secret Realm opened by the Wanyu Gambling Company. I’m just a little tired."
"I know you two probably have a lot of questions for me."
"Before you ask, let me first explain the ability of those two seeds."
Zhong Yi repeated the same explanation he had given to Luke for Xie Liansi and Yin Song.
Both of them were now considered Zhong Yi’s Guardian Beasts.
There was no need for Zhong Yi to hide anything from them; the Soul Taming Seed guaranteed their absolute loyalty to him.
After hearing Zhong Yi’s explanation, both Xie Liansi and Yin Song found that all the questions they had wanted to ask were now answered.
Not only were they not displeased that Zhong Yi had forcibly formed a Contract with them, but they were also immensely grateful.
Both Xie Liansi and Yin Song had received tangible benefits from the Soul Taming Seed’s Contract.
Xie Liansi’s Bloodline had leaped two levels.
Under the testing of an Elder from the Pigtails Race, Xie Liansi’s Bloodline potential had also reached the Perfect Level.
This washed away the shame her mother, a Ten-Perfection Elder of the Pigtails Race, had endured because of her existence.
It was as if Zhong Yi had given Xie Liansi a new life.
Yin Song, even more so, had awakened his Bloodline and obtained a Puppet Soul because of the Soul Taming Seed’s Contract.
And the Puppet Soul he obtained was the highest level of all: a Celestial Puppet Soul.
If Zhong Yi had unburdened Xie Liansi’s heart...
...then for Yin Song, Zhong Yi had allowed him to reclaim his dignity and sense of self-worth.
Otherwise, even if Yin Song had left the world of the Artifact Race, he would never have been able to forget his status as a pariah, as determined by his own people.
Zhong Yi really couldn’t hold on any longer and took the initiative to ask Xie Liansi and Yin Song.
"Do you two have any other questions?"
"If not, I’m going to log off the Virtual Source Network."
"This lounge will always be open to you. You can come over whenever you want."
Xie Liansi gently shook her head, but Yin Song hesitated for a long moment before asking Zhong Yi.
"Young Master, I don’t want to stay in my current world anymore."
"I was wondering if you could help me leave my current world?"
"Thanks to you, my Bloodline has successfully awakened. From now on, the Demonic Puppets I create can be sold for a lot of money."
"I hope you can let me come to your world."
Zhong Yi didn’t refuse Yin Song’s request.
In Zhong Yi’s opinion, Yin Song possessed the two Abilities, Heart Puppet Divine Communication and Puppet Divine Heart.
’A genius like him should have received all sorts of preferential treatment within the Artifact Race.’
’Under these circumstances, Yin Song actually feels no sense of belonging to the Artifact Race.’
In any case, Zhong Yi was now a Steward of the Wanyu Source Material Company, so he planned to go to the Wanyu Source Material library and look for books about races like the Fallen Energy Race, the Pigtails Race, and the Artifact Race the next time he logged into the Virtual Source Network.
First, he wanted to get a definite understanding of the races that Luke, Xie Liansi, and Yin Song belonged to.
It wasn’t difficult to take someone from their home world and teleport them to another world using coordinates.
It only required spending a little Divine Origin Value to do so.
However, there were a few things Zhong Yi needed to make clear to Yin Song beforehand.
"Ah Song, I don’t know why you have no sense of belonging to your current world."
"That’s your own business, so think it through carefully."
"If you truly decide to leave your current world..."
"...I’ll send you a message the next time I log into the Virtual Source Network and help you come to my world."
"But once you’re here, to prevent the coordinates from being leaked, there will be no way for you to leave again."
"I have many companions here."
"If you don’t have any friends in your current world, it might be good for you to come here."
Zhong Yi could see that Yin Song was not an ambitious person.
’If he were ambitious,’ Zhong Yi thought, ’having awakened a Puppet Soul and possessing those two abilities, he would have long been plotting how to rise through the ranks of the Artifact Race!’
