Chapter 702: Chapter 210: Gathering Together

The Flower Fairy harbored a deep grudge against being overtaken on a curve, so much so that even now, while being held in Lin Yun’s arms, her first instinct was to settle scores.

Upon hearing the Flower Fairy say she came first, Lin Yun couldn’t help but reflexively feel a twinge of stomachache.

It was this very statement that suddenly enlightened Lin Yun to the root of the Flower Fairy’s resentment.

She was annoyed that Lin Yun had found a new love, but what irritated her even more was the fact that she, despite coming first, had fallen behind in certain matters.

If Lin Yun couldn’t continue along this line of reasoning, pacifying the Flower Fairy would be difficult.

Even if she were to be soothed, she would still harbor some resentment in her heart.

As clever as he was, Lin Yun immediately thought of a way to resolve the situation.

He whispered a sentence into the Flower Fairy’s ear that turned her face red with embarrassment, her fingernails scratching wildly against Lin Yun’s body as if to punish him for his nonsense, but her mood had obviously improved significantly from before.

The exact words Lin Yun said couldn’t be repeated, but the gist of it was a high affirmation of the Flower Fairy. She seemed to be lagging behind, yet in reality, she was far ahead.

In the eyes of everyone, she was the only one who had not yet driven a car but had already started test-driving it.

And precisely because she had not yet driven, Lin Yun’s expectations for her were even greater.

Those direct and explicit words immediately caused the innocent young girl to blush and make a fuss, yet all her resentment vanished, replaced by a full heart of pride and joy.

Lin Yun was right; she might appear to have been overtaken on the curve, but in Lin Yun’s heart, she was truly the most unique presence.

The Flower Fairy felt joyful inside, but she couldn’t bear to show it on her face. Scratching and clawing at him, Lin Yun finally couldn’t resist grabbing her hand and threatened in a low voice, "Stop it, if you keep this up, be careful not to end up like them!"

The Flower Fairy paused for a moment before realizing the implications of Lin Yun’s words, and she was immediately overwhelmed with embarrassment.

This was broad daylight, under the clear, blue sky, out in the wilderness; being seen like this by others would be too shameful.

"Let’s go back quickly, otherwise, they’ll start worrying if they can’t find us."

The Flower Fairy now wanted to escape.

What does it mean to pretend to love dragons?

Initially, she was keen on overtaking others, but seeing Lin Yun’s wolfish look now made her a bit frightened.

She couldn’t deal with it, better to run away quickly.

Lin Yun merely smiled, changing into new clothes before returning to the ship.

Lin Yu and Fang Yu had arrived and were chatting with Jiang Chenyu, while Bai Jiaojiao, accompanied by Green Snake, was sitting in a corner. Green Snake’s strength was not weak, enough to be considered a Demon King and become a force on his own, which would be a combat asset for Lin Yun.

The small harem subtly presented a situation with three powers in equilibrium.

After the arrival of the Flower Fairy, it became four.

Once the Snow Maiden joined later, along with Zhen Li, the harem factions doubtless would become even messier.Some days, Lin Yun’s life would probably be like an episode of "Harem·XX Legend."

And this was just the simplest scenario. If he included Hu Yuling and Wu Xin, these two female slaves...

Eh, wait a second, they don’t count.

But Qian Qian and the Statue of Qing Nu might count, right?

Lin Yun boldly imagined this in his mind and suddenly felt that he had taken another step toward courting disaster. Gazing at the Statue of Qing Nu in his Dantian, her dull eyes also seemed to be looking at a dead man.

When Lin Yun and the Flower Fairy returned, they drew the gaze of everyone present.

Their attention was mainly on Lin Yun.

With this, Lin Yun’s grand harem was all but assembled, with only Snow Maiden absent.

Lin Yun’s mood was complicated. After little more than a year of struggle, the number of women around him kept increasing.

Following this trend, who knows? The number might double again next year. By the time everyone gathered together again, it would really be no different from holding a meeting.

With so many people, Lin Yun found it inconvenient to flirt with any one of them directly. With too many people around, he couldn’t spread his attention equally on the spot; there would always be someone missed. If one was overlooked, the others might not mind, but the one left out would feel heartbroken.

Even if he treated everyone equally, it’s likely that each one would feel they were getting the short end of the stick.

In that case, to truly be fair, he would have to treat every person with the same attitude.

To avoid seeming guilty, Lin Yun addressed them straightforwardly about his plan.

"The warfare in the Central Plains is about to come to a halt. Since none of you wish to see too many innocents die, why not give it our all?"

Basically, everyone present was a big shot with control over their own territory. Yuxuan’s "sacrifice" plan required their execution, and now, as the executors, they were almost unable to bear watching anymore.

If they were unaware of the reasons, they might refrain from intervening, conducting warfare through clashes among the lower ranks, allowing them to cope a little easier.

Now, knowing that they were sending people out to be killed, if executors did not have hearts of steel, their moral resolve would be damaged.

Of course, this was a challenge, but it could also be an opportunity.

Like Lin Yu, who, after her Sword Heart was clouded, quickly had an epiphany and successfully broke through her limits.

Like Jiang Chenyu, who grasped a deeper understanding. Without the Great Dao, there is only emptiness; one must cultivate diligently.

Lin Yun’s women were all women of strong will and determination. Aside from the newbie Zhen Li, the others were all as resolute as iron. They could feel sorrow and grief but wouldn’t dwell in their emotions to the point of being unable to move on.

Despite all that, they still did not want to continue.

In the end, everyone agreed to just end it there. They really wanted to see what this so-called ’divine calamity’ actually looked like.

It just so happened that Lin Yun suggested this as well, almost as if there was a tacit understanding between husband and wife.

"The key event now is the Battle of the Four Kings. I believe that after the end of the Battle of the Four Kings, a new storm will arise."

Lin Yun’s view coincided exactly with that of Lin Yu and the others. They thought the same.

Even after the Battle of the Four Kings, the signs of the impending storm were already there.

A storm was brewing, the air heavy with tension.

The fermentation of a great calamity was certainly not something that happened overnight; it was already sprouting.

Lin Yu and others believed that, after the Battle of the Four Kings, the most likely candidates to become the calamity were the Divine Race and the Demon Race.

More precisely, it should be the inhabitants of the Divine Realm and the Demon Race.

The Divine Realm inhabitants were not synonymous with the Divine Race; they were still part of the Human Race but had mixed with the gods for many years. On the side of the camp, they were firmly on the side of the gods.

Though belonging to the same species, they were not of the same kin.

Therefore, classifying them as part of the Divine Race was not improper.

The signs of the Divine Realm inhabitants becoming a calamity had already appeared last time. If not for Lin Yun’s timely appearance, most of the Divine Realm inhabitants might have still been in hiding, instead of like now, where only a cat survived and a Yu Jiaolong took the chance to flee when Lin Yun disappeared. The rest of the Divine Realm inhabitants had all died.

This might be able to delay the day of disaster somewhat but it cannot completely remove its root cause.

What could really cause a great calamity was not these Divine Realm inhabitants, but the existence behind them.

As Yu Jiaolong said, powerful individuals like her amounted to a two-digit number when all of the Divine Realm was added up. Corresponding to them in the Defiant Heavenly Realm, counting the Snow Maiden and the recently advanced Flower Fairy, there were only four.

The gap was too large. Moreover, there was a living god standing behind them.

Cultivators did not have a clear concept of a god for the time being, only knowing that Divine Spirit power was not on the same level as mortals. In front of Divine Spirits, mortals had no resistance at all.

In such a situation, preparing for battle was like the other side having nuclear weapons, and we did not.

The other side’s nuclear weapon could be used at any time, although they might not use it, while we simply did not have one.

Lin Yun did think of Qian Qian, but Tai Bai was a true Divine Spirit, comparable to the Sun God. After the dream realm experience, Lin Yun even felt that Tai Bai might be stronger than the Sun God, perhaps she was truly the number one in the world.

Whereas Qian Qian still needed multiple conversions to contend evenly with Dongfang Yao. The gap was quite clear.

It was just unknown whether Qian Qian had made any progress in these hundreds of thousands of years.

Compared to the threat of the Divine Race, the Demon Race was not considered a threat now.

The leader of the Demon Race was serving as a maid under Lin Yun. Could they still count on others?

Of course, it could also be that luck was a little bad. The spatial rift had not healed yet, and who knew whether one day a rift in the Demon Land might open, and start teaming up with the Divine Race.

When the time came for the Demons and Gods to join forces, and attack the Human Race that was already a headache to fight against, in the face of two unbeatable opponents, they would probably only sigh in lament...

Of course, things probably wouldn’t be that coincidental.

No matter how powerful the enemy, for now, their only option was to join forces.

To get through the Battle of the Four Kings as smoothly as possible while accumulating their own strength, that’s what they should do at this stage.

According to Yuxuan, wouldn’t this seriously exacerbate the internal strife? In order to mitigate the disaster, a large part of the population would be sacrificed. It is possible that when the actual disaster strikes, the number of people who die wouldn’t even be as many as those sacrificed.

Wouldn’t that be awkward?

So much so that Lin Yu and the others felt it was better to take a chance. Even though victory was not certain, even if they lost, dying at the hands of the enemy would be preferable to dying at the hands of their own people.

Since everyone was prepared for the worst, when Lin Yun proposed to swiftly end the chaos in the Central Plains, no one objected.

"Now, among the Four Kings, the only one who is not one of us is Yuan Zidan. I’ve arranged to meet him in three days. At that time, let’s all make a move together. If he surrenders, we’ll let him go back. If he refuses..."

If he refuses, then Yuan Zidan would only have the heavens to seek.

Only then did the group understand the purpose of Lin Yun’s call to them.

"What if he doesn’t come?"

"Then we’ll go directly to Haizhou, and siege Yuan Zidan together, forcing him out first."

This Battle of the Four Kings was shaping up to be much like the previous ones, with the Sea-King being ousted first. Perhaps it was destiny!

Everyone nodded in agreement. With that, the serious talk was concluded, and what next...

Lin Yun suddenly sensed an ominous aura. All these women standing together, staring straight at him, clearly had mischief in mind.

This is bad, I need to run!

Lin Yun had already anticipated the danger. Something was wrong, and he was thinking of slipping away immediately.

"Brother Yun, I have something to say. Now that almost everyone is here, it seems like a good time."

As he was preparing to flee, Flower Fairy was the first to step forward. With her saying this, given the current situation, Lin Yun felt that he probably could not escape...
