Book 4: Near Blood - Chapter 227: Reward (2/2)
As a famous scholar, he himself was an ith made him quite a valuable individual to ally with
As such, as soon as Su Chen proposed an alliance, Lin Chenyuan had immediately come and even made an obvious show of his sincerity
Whether he was si shrewd or if he actually respected Su Chen, he at least had gone to proper lengths to ood first i Coiling City was not the Long Sang Consulate but the Wise Prince’s palace
Within the Wise Prince’s residence
Lin Chenyuan chuckled as he poured soing into the Iron and Blood Country alone and saving the Heavenly Might Battalion has already spread far and wide But you were arrested and interrogated ireat feat? That sends chills down ot wind of this, I personally alenerals what the hell they were thinking”
Su Chen chuckled, “Actually, what those generals think is not so iht?”
Lin Chenyuan shook his head “If he didn’t have the support of the generals, the Crown Prince ht not have had the boldness to do so”
Su Chen understood his“There aren’t htenht Battalion’s Hao Jiantang”
Lin Chenyuan harru is totally under the command of the Crown Prince Lin Wenjun’s blatant nepotism see face any the Heavenly Might Battalion was so that he could place one of his trusted subordinates in charge of the new battalion After all, roping in people required there to be enough of a foundation to support these actions in the first place
Jin Shuas standing off to the side, said, “Lin Wenjun alsoGold Fort for so Qianzhu see, but he is actually extreenerals are war veterans and have lived through countless bloody battles; they could not possibly have survived just based on status alone Only a talented individual like you could obtain their support”
Su Chen said, “So the Crown Prince doesn’t see eye-to-eye with me”
Lin Chenyuan said, “That’s not the only reason why He’s getting quite a bit of pressure from the back lines as well”
Su Chen understood “The nobles don’t like the research that I andI would like to knohat the Wise Prince thinks about”
Lin Chenyuan chuckled “A thousand years is too long I just focus onthe best use of the ties that Su Chen could bring about would onlyperiods of tiht was not i to him was the present
As such, Su Chen’s research did not pose a problem to him
However, that didn’t mean that he would definitely support Su Chen’s research
Lin Chenyuan said, “Of course, if Sir Su can show sorateful”
Lin Chenyuan also needed the support of the Bloodline nobility Clans
And any Bloodline nobility Clan was aluaranteed to not want Su Chen’s research to continue
To Lin Chenyuan, if he could acco that Lin Wenjun could not do, then ould the general populace think?
Many would probably think that Lin Wenjun was not as worthy as Lin Chenyuan
Yes This was the true reason that Lin Chenyuan placed so much value on Su Chen
In that sense, Lin Chenyuan was actually sioal was different, and the oal were also different Lin Wenjun didn’t want to pay too much of a price; either his opponent would acquiesce to hi more than that However, Lin Chenyuan viewed Su Chen and his Instructor as a piece that would allow him to obtain the support of the nobles and knock Lin Wenjun down a peg at the sa Su Chen alive was of utmost importance to him And the letter that Su Chen had written to Lin Chenyuan otiable, which hat had caused Lin Chenyuan to be so excited This was also the reason why he illing to pay such an exceptionally high price
After Lin Chenyuan had spoken, he waved his hand His subordinates pulled out a trunk filled with Origin Stones and precious raw ingredients
Su Chen, however, didn’t even glance at it once
No matter how much money you have, could you possibly have more thanthe Ravagers and the Beasts, didn’t have eyes for these resources Perhaps not even the imperial storehouses possessed as much wealth as he
Soin Stones could not possibly take a gift of a few tens of thousands of Origin Stones seriously
As such, Su Chen shook his head “Many thanks, Wise Prince, for your good intentions, but I have no need of these things”
Lin Chenyuan was taken aback “But Sir Su, you mentioned in your letter that”
Su Chen chuckled “Don’t worry - I have no intention of going back on ifts”
Lin Chenyuan somewhat understood “Yes, Sir Su’s cultivation techniques have spread far and wide, so this presentHowever, this is a display of my sincerity, so I still hope that you would accept it As for any requests youit is within my power to do so, I will do my best to achieve it for you”
Since Lin Chenyuan had said as much, Su Chen would seeifts, so he stowed the that I would like to ask the Wise Prince for his help with If the Wise Prince agrees, I, Su Chen, a to swear a vow that any bloodline-less cultivation techniques I develop in the future will never be publicly distributed on the Dreamrealm or sold for a low price Instead, they will be prudently and carefully passed along from one individual to another”
Su Chen could not possibly agree to stop his research
However, he did agree not to disseminate his research for such a low price like he had done before
The Bloodline nobility Clans ht not be totally satisfied with this outcome, but it was much easier for them to accept it than what the situation was like before
The Bloodline nobility Clans opposed Su Chen notit far and wide, allowing anyone and everyone to cultivate them This caused the value of a bloodline to decrease, and the Bloodline nobility Clans’ noble status grew less and less iuard such a technique that they had researched, then it wouldup It wouldn’t affect nearly as e the status of the Bloodline nobility Clans As such, this kind of a situation was much easier to accept
After all, there had been people before Su Chen who had ed to develop cultivationRealm without a bloodline However, their use was extremely restricted and never really spread, so the Bloodline nobility Clans never felt threatened by the on carrying out such an inheritance, they probably would think twice about it
But at the , influencing Lin Chenyuan’s thoughts and emotions
When he heard what Su Chen had said, Lin Chenyuan laughed loudly “Good, good! As long as Sir Su is willing to make such a promise, I will answer any request you ree any request Su Chen made of him”, an obvious indication of how important Su Chen’s prohtly “Actually, what I want is very simple I want the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain”
