Chapter 322 - I Support It
Even though the Heavenly Emperor’s strength was on par with him, he was, after all, the leader of their faction. As such, Buddha was quite reluctant to offend him.
On the other hand, he had witnessed Lin Ming’s strength before, and it wasn’t worth the risk to fight Lin Ming either.
Therefore, his first thought was to split the dragon vein between themselves equally.
“Fortunately, Lord Laotse didn’t come, otherwise……” Buddha thought to himself. After all, Lord Laotse was the most powerful existence in their faction.
If Lord Laotse had appeared, then a share would definitely have had to be given to him as well.
Even the Heavenly Emperor couldn’t say anything against the distribution.
However, although Lord Laotse was powerful, there were many things that he wouldn’t participate in.
Moreover, the number of things he liked was much less than those they liked.
“The three of you are quite early, I see?” Suddenly, a voice sounded in everyone’s ears.
The smile on Buddha’s face who had just been rejoicing immediately froze upon hearing this voice!
“Lord Laotse, you’re interested in the dragon vein too?” Buddha squeezed out a stiff smile and looked at Lord Laotse as he spoke.
“Of course. After all, this is the Fate of heaven and Earth,” Lord Laotse nodded and said.
Lord Laotse was quite frank.
“How about the four of us split the dragon vein equally?” Buddha was feeling the urge to cry as he asked.
“Impossible,” Lin Ming stood in the middle and said resolutely.
Lin Ming had come to Earth this time because he was entrusted by Pangu to put the dragon vein back into Earth.
Even if Lin Ming hadn’t have come from Earth and this was not his hometown, his promise would not change.
Besides, this was Lin Ming’s first hometown!
“Lin Ming, the dragon vein means a lot. It can’t be that you want to take it all for yourself, right?” Buddha turned his head to look at Lin Ming, and questioned him.
“Bullsh*t. I told you, the dragon vein is to restore Earth. You don’t have to say anything more,” Lin Ming looked at Buddha coldly and said.
“Heavenly Emperor, Lord Laotse, Buddha!” At this moment, another voice suddenly appeared.
Xing Tian and Zhu Jiuyin had arrived at the same time.
The void’s big shots had all appeared at the same time!
Of course, Xing Tian and Zhu Jiuyin were slightly weaker when compared to the Heavenly Emperor and the others.
“We’re only missing Nuwa. Why isn’t she here?” Lin Ming suddenly asked.
“Nuwa herself is the embodiment of Fate. The dragon vein wouldn’t be of much use to her,” Lord Laotse said.
“A string of Fate of Heaven and Earth can create an existence on the same tier as Nuwa. As expected, the attraction of the dragon vein to you lot is really strong,” Lin Ming snorted and said.
Of course, Lin Ming knew of the allure of the Fate of Heaven and Earth. However, he didn’t expect that the dragon vein could directly create an existence on the same tier as Nuwa!
“So, Lin Ming, your idea won’t work at all,” Buddha looked at Lin Ming and said.
“Lin Ming, we’ve been observing the dragon vein for tens of thousands of years,” The Heavenly Emperor also spoke up at this time. The meaning behind his words was very clear. When they had been observing the dragon vein, Lin Ming hadn’t even been born yet.
“You’ve been eyeing it for tens of thousands of years, right?” Lin Ming sneered and did not give any face at all.
“No matter what, we won’t just allow something that is of great use to us at our tier to just be placed right before our eyes and allow you to have full control over it,” The Heavenly Emperor said.
He believed in Lin Ming’s feelings towards the Earth, but he could not allow Lin Ming to just put the dragon vein back into the Earth while they would not get any benefits at all.
“That’s right,” At this moment, Zhu Jiuyin also spoke up.
“Are you asking for a beating?” Lin Ming turned his head and looked at Zhu Jiuyin as he said coldly.
Lin Ming had not said such words to the Heavenly Emperor and the Buddha because he still had a certain amount of patience to beat around the bush with them.
However, if there were still other people who attempted to interrupt him at such a moment, Lin Ming would not let him be.
Lin Ming’s words made Zhu Jiuyin’s expression freeze.
By saying such words, Lin Ming was making it so he was unable to back down with good grace.
However, he did not dare to challenge Lin Ming directly because it was very likely he might not be able to beat Lin Ming.
“You…… Don’t be too arrogant!” Zhu Jiuyin’s expression was shifting as he said coldly.
“Do you want to fight?” Lin Ming did not answer but directly issued a challenge.
“Alright, Lin Ming, we are talking about the dragon vein,” Lord Laotse’s voice sounded in Lin Ming’s ears.
“The dragon vein must be put back into Earth, here I’ve said it,” Lin Ming spoke again. This time, he did not bother to waste his breath and spoke frankly.
“Alright, I agree!” Nobody expected Lord Laotse to say these words.
This sentence made everyone freeze on the spot.
Even Lin Ming was stunned.
All of them thought that Lord Laotse had come here to snatch the dragon vein.
After all, this dragon vein was also very useful to Lord Laotse.
No one had expected Lord Laotse to come here just to support Lin Ming!
“Thank you for your support, Lord Laotse,” Lin Ming cupped his fists and said.
The remaining Heavenly Emperor and the others were left at a loss of what to do!
At this moment, they were also at a loss for words!
“I’m only here to express my opinion. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving first,” With that, Lord Laotse actually left.
This made the Heavenly Emperor and the others who remained looked at each other in dismay.
Did Lord Laotse come here just to announce “checkmate”?
“The dragon vein is too precious. Among all the worlds, only Earth has given birth to them,” At this moment, the Heavenly Emperor spoke again.
“So?” Lin Ming turned around and looked at the Heavenly Emperor.
“You know what I mean,” The Heavenly Emperor snorted and said.
He could see that the benefits for him to resolve this matter through discussions with Lin Ming were too low.
Therefore, the Heavenly Emperor was now gradually losing his patience.
“My words stay the same. It’s impossible. Moreover, I will not take this dragon vein for myself either, not even a little,” Lin Ming waved his hand again and said.
At this moment, Zhu Jiuyin could not hold it in any longer and shouted, “Lin Ming, we are only giving you face. Don’t take it too far!”
Either way, if he were to make a move now, Buddha and the Heavenly Emperor would have to help him.
Otherwise, if he refused to be cannon fodder for them in the future, many of their matters would be harder to be carried out.
“Tsk tsk, the emperor is not in a hurry, yet the eunuch is anxious,” Lin Ming sneered. He could not be bothered with Zhu Jiuyin anymore.
“Bullsh*t, how dare you say such words about me?!” Zhu Jiuyin flew into a rage the second he heard these words.
He hated it the most when others said that he had only reached his current tier because he had sucked up to the Heavenly Emperor and the others.
Also, he had heard of eunuchs before.
This was also one of the points that would offend him the most.
However, Lin Ming had said it, and in front of so many at that……
