Chapter 584: Silence

Ye Lin was completely silent.

To tell the truth, he felt that the current situation was not much better than when he transmigrated into the body of an infant in the slums of Qingcheng before.

However, at the same time, he also had a bold idea.

Ye Lin rubbed his hands and asked with a look of anticipation.

"Brother Kuai Yan, I have never seen an Immortal Source Ore; can you let me touch it and see?"

"Of course you can, touch it, touch it as much as you want."

Kuai Yan very generously handed the human-head-sized Immortal Source Ore to Ye Lin.

He didn't worry that Ye Lin would do anything to the Immortal Source Ore; the unrefined ore was full of impurities, and absorbing it directly would only be counterproductive.

"Wow! Is this an Immortal Source Ore?"

Ye Lin held the Immortal Source Ore, revealing a shy smile on his face.

Then he quietly activated Endless Devouring!

A wisp of pure energy entered Ye Lin's body, and at the same time, the fluorescence of the Immortal Source Ore dimmed slightly.

Ye Lin was happy in his heart, secretly saying that there was a play!

Sure enough, as long as it was something with energy, he could use Endless Devouring to refine it directly.

Whether it was the corpse of a powerful living being after death, or things similar to Demon Qi or Immortal Source Ore, he could refine them all.

This discovery gave Ye Lin confidence.

He originally wanted to find an opportunity to escape the mining area before him directly, but now, he changed his mind.

One hundred million low-grade Immortal Source Stones were not so easy to get, and he didn't have a bottom line on how strong the cultivators of this world were.

Instead of running around foolishly, it was better to stay in the mining area and develop for a wave first.

At the very least, he had to reshape his body first and adapt to the rules of Changsheng Continent before talking.

"What are you doing? Why aren't you working? Are you slacking off?"

A cold voice sounded, and Team Leader Qiu Weizhi walked over with a dark face.

Seeing this, Kuai Yan's expression changed; he was afraid that Ye Lin would not be able to think straight and go against Qiu Weizhi, so while giving Ye Lin a wink, he fawningly picked up the human-head-sized Immortal Source Ore and handed it to Qiu Weizhi's eyes.

"Team Leader, we aren't slacking off; we just dug out a large piece of Immortal Source Ore, and we were too excited, so we stopped for a while."

"Oh?"

Qiu Weizhi raised a meaningful smile.

"Are you looking for an excuse to shirk responsibility? Slacking off is slacking off; you were caught in the act and still want to quibble?"

"You, and that newcomer, each be fined one low-grade Immortal Source Stone, to be deducted from your salary next month."

Hearing this, Kuai Yan's expression became extremely ugly; Qiu Weizhi was clearly making things difficult for them on purpose.

But Kuai Yan could only painfully close his eyes and squeeze four words out from between his teeth.

"Okay, received."

Qiu Weizhi's mouth was frivolous, looking at Ye Lin with a provocative look and asking.

"What? Do you have an opinion?"

"The little one has no opinion!"

Ye Lin shook his head immediately.

"The Team Leader punished well, the Team Leader punished wisely! Heaven will place a great responsibility on a person, it must first suffer his heart and will, labor his muscles and bones, starve his body and skin, empty his body, and confuse his actions!"

"Team Leader, you look like you are punishing us on the surface, but in reality, you are giving us an opportunity to exercise! You are too great!"

"Team Leader! You have worked hard!"

Every word and sentence of Ye Lin was from the bottom of his heart.

True feelings, moving people to tears.

If Ye Lin had been eager to cause some trouble to be kicked out of the mining area before, now he was desperately trying to stay in the mining area.

Once these words were spoken, not only was Qiu Weizhi stunned, but the other ascenders who were still digging mines were also stunned.

What is the situation?

Has this guy's ass-kissing reached such a state of perfection?

Kuai Yan looked at Ye Lin with even more confusion; he had originally been worried that Ye Lin would continue to go against Qiu Weizhi, but he didn't expect Ye Lin to be even better at handling things than him.

Ye Lin, on the other hand, was calm and sincere.

Just kidding, who among those who successfully climbed out of the bottom wouldn't have the ability to read people, observe expressions, and flatter?

Ye Lin didn't use this ability later, just because he didn't need to do so anymore, not because he didn't know how.

Qiu Weizhi's cheeks were a little red.

He had originally thought of finding a fault to properly teach this newcomer Ye Lin a lesson, but Ye Lin flattered him so much that he felt a little embarrassed instead.

"Cough, cough, since you have realized my painstaking efforts, then your punishment will be exempted."

Qiu Weizhi waved his hand generously.

"NO!"

Ye Lin refused flatly and even gave Qiu Weizhi a suggestion.

"Team Leader! Not only must you punish! But you must punish heavily! A salary that is too high is not conducive to our ascenders' struggle!"

Qiu Weizhi was stunned; how did he vaguely feel... that this person was even more of a beast than him?

He only relied on his status as a Team Leader to squeeze, exploit, and target some ascenders who didn't listen to him.

But if Ye Lin were to become the Team Leader... Qiu Weizhi shuddered involuntarily just thinking about it.

"Alright, alright, stop talking!" Qiu Weizhi hurriedly made Ye Lin shut up.

He had already discovered that the gazes of many ascenders around him toward Ye Lin were already not quite right; if Ye Lin continued to speak, he probably wouldn't survive tonight.

"NO! I want to speak! I want the whole world to hear my voice!"

Ye Lin shouted with his arms raised.

"We just ascended to the upper realm, unfamiliar with the place, and it was the mining area that gave us the opportunity to work and gave us a place to stay. We still ask the mining area for a salary—isn't this putting the cart before the horse and returning kindness with ingratitude?"

"Therefore, I, Ye Lin, sincerely appeal to all ascenders here: Pay to dig mines!"

Pay to dig mines!

Pay to dig mines!

Dig mines!

Mines!

Ye Lin's voice echoed in the mining area.

Inside the entire mining area, there was silence, and one could hear a pin drop.

Pairs of scarlet eyes stared fixedly at Ye Lin, killing intent surging in their eyes.

The atmosphere inside the mining area was like a huge powder keg; at this moment, it only needed a spark to explode completely!

Qiu Weizhi was scared crazy and hurriedly covered Ye Lin's mouth.

"Shut your damn mouth!"

Before these ascenders ascended, which one wasn't a heaven-favored child and a top figure in their respective worlds?

Coming to Changsheng Continent after ascending and only being able to be a handyman doing miscellaneous work had already accumulated a resentment in their hearts.

If Ye Lin continued to talk about paying to dig mines here, when that time came, the entire mining area might riot.

Once the ascenders in the mining area rioted, he didn't know what would happen to others, but he, this Team Leader, would definitely be miserable.

In the mining area, he was a high-and-mighty Team Leader, but in the eyes of those big shots, he was just an ant.

The big shots wouldn't care why the riot happened in the mining area; they would only feel that the riot affected the output of the mining area and thus take it out on him, this Team Leader.

"What are you looking at? Go back and dig mines! Don't you want your salary next month?"

Qiu Weizhi shouted sharply, his eyes cold.

Due to his lewd power as a Team Leader, many ascenders could only continue to bury their heads in hard work in silence, but their gazes toward Ye Lin remained unkind.

They couldn't deal with the Team Leader, but couldn't they deal with a newcomer? ===== CHAPTER 585 =====
