Chapter 191 - A Commander With No Soldiers!
When the God-tier Great Elder awakened, they would be enslaved.
In addition, if the grand elder was indeed the traitors of the world, how could he be someone magnanimous?
"We are willing to call a truce," One of the Underworld Sage tier experts said.
"But what about big brother..."
Although they had stopped the Sage in the center of power from coming with them just now, and they hadn't left with him either, but he had always been the commander of the army for so many years.
Thus, they had an indescribable obedience to the Underworld Sage tier expert at the center.
"After being used by him for so long, the lot of you can't free yourselves from his grasp?" Lin Ming asked.
"Others may not know, but you, Sage tier experts, don't know? You've been fighting against our world all year round just for the sake of awakening the Great Elder," Lin Ming opened his mouth to state the truth once more.
"Just for this, the innocent villagers of the Underworld and all the experts below the Sage tier who had gone through all the trouble to get to a certain tier, have all lost their lives," Lin Ming continued.
"Alright, there's no need to say anymore. Let's raise our hands to vote," Another Underworld Sage tier expert spoke.
In the Underworld, the Sage tier experts were treated like emperors.
However, this Sage tier expert who had spoken didn't like the idea of using lives to awaken the great elder by transforming life force into the power of energy and blood.
"I agree!" Yet another Underworld Sage tier expert raised his hand.
"We'll follow the majority. Is that alright?"
Among all the Underworld Sage tier experts, only had one disagreed.
In addition, the Sage who had disagreed was the one who had been nurtured by the Sage tier expert in the center of power.
"Alright, let's call a truce!"
Seeing the majority had raised their hands in favor of calling a truce, one of the Underworld Sage tier experts said.
"Lin Ming, if the Aboveground World doesn't mind, can I stay here from now on?" An Underworld Sage tier expert asked Lin Ming.
"In any case, I've had enough of the tyrannical system of the Underworld," The Sage continued.
"Of course, we welcome you with open arms," Lin Ming nodded.
If this Sage tier expert chose to stay in the Aboveground World for a long time, the Underworld definitely wouldn't continue to attack.
After all, their own great elder was still in this world.
As for whether the Sage was a spy that the Underworld intentionally sent to the Aboveground World, Lin Ming could tell that this Sage was honest about disliking the Underworld's system.
"I'll be able to break through to the Sage tier in a few days," Lin Ming, who was in the middle, suddenly spoke.
This sentence shocked all the Sage tier experts present.
"What did you say? Are you serious?"
Lin Ming's words made them feel incredulous!
After all, a tier 10 expert could already be considered a genius if he could break through to the Sage tier within a few decades!
"You've only just broken through to tier 10. I'm afraid it'll be a little difficult." Another Sage tier expert said doubtfully.
"Didn't I only have the magic power of tier 7 a few days ago?" Lin Ming smiled and said.
"This..."
When Lin Ming said this, everyone fell silent.
It was a fact that Lin Ming was merely a tier 7 mage a few days ago!
In just a few days, he had jumped three tiers! He had become a tier 10 mage!
And he had the power to instantly kill a tier 10 powerhouse, someone who was on the same tier as he was!
It dampened all suspicions that Lin Ming did not have a solid foundation!
"I also wish to live in the Aboveground World from now on, I hope that you won't mind." At this moment, as Lin Ming said this, another Underworld Sage tier expert spoke up.
"Alright." Lin Ming nodded without hesitation.
Lin Ming's words caused the Underworld Sage tier experts, who were still feeling some reluctance earlier, to immediately change their minds!
They now completely believed that Lin Ming could break through that barrier!
After all, a monster like Lin Ming definitely had this ability!
However, they weren't certain of the time it would take for Lin Ming to break through to the God-tier!
After all, if he needed a long time for cultivation, they wouldn't be able to afford to wait.
Thus, some of them still had other thoughts before Lin Ming had said those words.
But now that Lin Ming had stated that he would be able to break through to the Sage tier soon, the distracting thoughts in their hearts had completely disappeared!
If it was someone else who had said such a thing, they wouldn't have believed it.
But for a person who could leap three tiers in a short period and had an extremely stable foundation, to say such a thing here...
They had no choice but to believe it!
Thus, right now, another Sage tier expert who initially hadn't made up his mind had directly said that he would live in the Aboveground World for a long time.
Actually, the meaning of them saying these words were obvious.
It meant that they would listen to Lin Ming's orders in this world!
After all, they would always be under Lin Ming's nose.
In the Underworld, Sages were kings, thus, it was somewhat difficult for them to accept the orders of a tier 10 mage.
"Me too. I hope you don't mind," At this moment, a third Sage tier expert spoke.
"I'm willing as well. I hope you don't mind!"
At this moment, more and more Underworld Sage tier experts expressed their willingness to live in the Aboveground World for a long time.
In the end, there was only one Underworld Sage tier expert who did not explicitly express his loyalty. He said that he would return immediately after settling some matters in the Underworld.
This Sage was the person who had been nurtured by the Underworld Sage at the center of power.
"Senior, please take care of your world upon your return. There's no need for you to come back here," Lin Ming smiled and said.
"You!" The Sage tier expert didn't expect Lin Ming to be so ruthless!
"I won't send you off," Lin Ming made a gesture and said.
Everyone present was Sage tier experts, it was a given they would weigh the pros and cons.
Lin Ming decided that he would give them the chance to do so.
However if at this point one still chose to go back to the Underworld and inform the Sage tier expert in the center, then sorry, but Lin Ming did not know himself as a saint who could tolerate everything.
"Fine!" The Underworld Sage tier expert was flustered and exasperated. With a flick of his sleeve, he left.
"Everyone, welcome to our half of the world. We were one world, to begin with. Please don't be reserved," Lin Ming stood up and spoke to the Underworld Sage tier experts of the Underworld.
"Yes, yes, yes!" The Underworld Sage tier experts all smiled and nodded.
"Lin Ming!" At this moment, in the Underworld, a furious roar sounded!
It was the Sage tier expert in the center!
And now, he had become a commander with no soldiers!
How could he accept this?
Furthermore, as the Underworld Sage tier experts surrendered to Lin Ming, his plan couldn't be carried out at all!
As for taking the families of the Sages who had surrendered as hostages to force them to return, wasn't such a thought a pure joke?
It would have been tolerable if there were only one or two of them who had surrendered, but right now, only the three of them were still in the Underworld.
Thus, in order not to provoke the anger of the masses, he could only bear the anger himself.
Right now, the Underworld Sage tier experts had decided to live in the Aboveground World.
With this, the attacks of the Underworld had completely stopped!
After all, no one dared to attack their ancestors!
