Chapter 50 Lin Yi: I have a suggestion
He was taken in as a personal disciple.
Ten thousand times compensation?
Even Venerable Guiyi, who was standing to the side, was moved by what he heard.
The Lord of Chaos City is fair and just, and he does not show excessive favoritism or pampering towards his disciples. Therefore, none of his personal disciples are wealthy.
"Lord of the city, may I hear about a third option?" Lin Yi swallowed hard and asked earnestly.
The Lord of Chaos showed no impatience and nodded.
"Of course, the third option is to hand over the 'Bodhi Tree,' and I will nurture it for you for one hundred million epochs, after which I will return it to you!"
"Believe me, with the full support of the human race, your Bodhi tree will surely grow into a magnificent tree, far surpassing its current height of seven or eight meters. At that time, the effect you will have in cultivating with its help will be far more than ten times what it is now."
Borrow one hundred million epochs?
At that time, what use will he have for the Bodhi tree?
Lin Yi shook his head and said softly, "Lord City Lord, I don't want to choose any of the three options above... I have a suggestion!"
"Lin Yi! Don't be so presumptuous!" Venerable Guiyi shouted anxiously.
He warned Lin Yi that this was the main battle avatar of the Chaos City Lord, with the heaviest baleful aura, and that Lin Yi should be careful, but Lin Yi simply wouldn't listen.
The Lord of Chaos City remained calm and waved to Venerable Guiyi, who wisely refrained from further discussion, only growing anxious in silence.
Lin Yi stared at the expressionless Chaos City Lord, and forced himself to speak.
"Lord of the City, I am willing to offer up the Bodhi Tree, and I will not ask for it back in the future. Moreover, you do not need to take me as your disciple, nor do you need to compensate me with ten thousand times the resources."
The Chaos City Lord's expression softened slightly. "Go on!"
His ultimate goal is the Bodhi tree. As long as Lin Yi can offer up the Bodhi tree, everything else is negotiable.
"My condition is that a Bodhi fruit be cultivated within ten years, and the first one is mine to use."
"Furthermore, I want to receive 10% of the future production of Bodhi fruits and leaves!"
The Lord of Chaos City laughed!
Venerable Guiyi rubbed his eyes in disbelief. He actually saw a smile on his teacher's main battle avatar, and it was a smile directed at a little guy at the Domain Lord level!
"This Lin Yi is a bit strange!"
Even Venerable Guiyi himself didn't realize that when he looked at Lin Yi again, he no longer regarded him as a little guy at the Domain Lord level.
"Lin Yi, you... are not bad!" The Chaos City Lord looked Lin Yi up and down and spoke seriously.
The future ownership will be converted into a 10% usage right!
Lin Yi's suggestion was simple, but also arrogant!
He was arrogant, believing that he could grow to a height that required no Bodhi tree within a hundred million epochs or even less.
The Lord of Chaos City found himself growing increasingly fond of this little fellow who was at the Domain Lord level.
"Alright, we'll do as you say... Within ten years, I will use the resources to cultivate Bodhi fruits and give them to you. You will receive 10% of the mature Bodhi leaves and fruits!"
The Lord of Chaos City made the decision!
"Okay!"
Lin Yi clenched his fist in satisfaction, secretly delighted.
The Bodhi Tree is far from reaching its peak. The known essence of the Beast God can accelerate its growth, but Lin Yi cannot afford to provide these resources in large quantities at the moment.
Rather than spending a lot of time nurturing and developing him himself, it would be better to hand him over and let the human race nurture him.
On the surface, he lost the Bodhi tree, this sacred tree.
In fact, that is not the case. With the help of other groups cultivating Bodhi trees, the amount of Bodhi leaves and fruits harvested in the future will far exceed the amount he could have cultivated on his own.
The stronger your talent, the faster your strength will increase, and the faster and more you will gain luck. With luck, why worry about not having treasures?
Offering the Bodhi tree has another great benefit: it's equivalent to 'endorsing' the Chaos City Lord and even the human race, naturally gaining them a bit of goodwill.
Lin Yi generously offered up the divine tree, and later he received some treasures. You can't just forcibly take them, that's against the rules!
Besides, even the Lord of Chaos City didn't try to steal it by force, but you insist on doing so...
What... are you stronger than the Lord of Chaos City?!
This is equivalent to adding another layer of insurance for Lin Yi's life.
It is foreseeable that after Lin Yi leaves Earth and sets foot in the universe, he will inevitably manifest many supernatural objects and touch the nerves of the higher echelons of humanity. With the relationship of offering the Bodhi tree, he will have some chance to negotiate.
It's good to have a chance to negotiate. Lin Yi's biggest fear is being overpowered and having his treasure stolen by a powerful figure without knowing why!
"Lin Yi, I've agreed to your conditions, so shouldn't you also agree to one of mine?" The Chaos City Lord asked with a smile that was hard to decipher.
Lin Yi readily nodded, "No problem, please give your instructions, City Lord!"
"Become the leader of my City Lord's personal guard!" the Chaos City Lord declared in a startling statement.
"The leader of the Imperial Guard?!" Venerable Guiyi looked up at the Lord of Chaos City in a daze, thinking to himself,
"How come I didn't know the City Lord's Mansion had such a position?!"
The Chaos City Lord's Mansion has guards and a guard leader.
But when did the position of leader of the personal guard appear? How come he, a disciple who is always by his teacher's side, didn't know about it?
High-ranking officials and nobles are fine, but they need personal guards to protect them.
But does the Chaos City Lord still need that thing?
What use are there to have more bodyguards if the opponent can hurt the teacher?
Lin Yi was also a little confused. He didn't remember this setting in the original work. The leader of the personal guard sounded quite domineering, but how could a little guy like him, a domain lord, be qualified to be the leader of the personal guard of the Chaos City Lord?
It would be more appropriate to replace him with the Venerable Guiyi next to him.
The Chaos City Lord spoke with a clear smile, gazing intently at Lin Yi, "Yes, he is the leader of the Imperial Guard!"
"I have just activated the permissions for this position through Virtual Universe Company."
"The Imperial Guard will consist of 100 men. You will recruit geniuses below the Realm Lord level to supplement the ranks. Their primary responsibility is to protect the inner sanctum of the City Lord's Mansion!"
"The leader of the personal guard has the same status and authority as a Venerable One. He is not required to bow before a Cosmic Venerable One. His specific authority will be available for review after his appointment..."
Lin Yi: ...
Having power really makes you capricious!
The Virtual Universe Company grants VIP-level job privileges, which can be added at will.
He placed the little guy, who was at the Domain Lord level, in the position of leader of the personal guard, and did it without hesitation.
You really think it's all your family's property?
"Lord City Lord, is there any restriction on freedom?" Lin Yi asked the question that concerned him the most.
The Lord of Chaos City shook his head. "There are no restrictions. Everything is unrestricted. The only requirement is that you must build your personal guard into an army within 10000 epochs."
"I don't expect them all to reach the level of Cosmic Master, but at least they should achieve immortality!"
"Of course, there will be corresponding assessments every 10 eras, and resources will be deducted if the standards are not met."
After saying that, the Lord of Chaos City couldn't help but reveal a smile.
Lin Yi understood. Since it was all so bluntly stated, how could he not understand? The so-called personal guard was nothing more than a way to continue robbing him—using the authority and status of a cosmic venerable to continue to plunder that proportion of Bodhi leaves and Bodhi fruits!
Of course, this method is still fair.
After all, the choice of who to serve as his personal guard was entirely up to him. Even without this personal guard, he planned to give the Bodhi leaves and fruits to some of his close associates.
