Chapter 2388 - 2388 Focus on Work and Keep Your Mouth Shut!

2388 Focus on Work and Keep Your Mouth Shut!

Isa and the rest were patrolling sea envoys who had betrayed Extreme Ocean long ago, and he was aware of this.

But Extreme Ocean said what he said because he wanted to find a reason to send Smooth Flow away. This was so that he would not have to worry about protecting Smooth Flow when a fight broke out.

Smooth Flow found Extreme Ocean’s order to be slightly suspicious. Extreme Ocean usually did not ask Smooth Flow to do jobs like passing on orders.

But since Extreme Ocean had asked, Smooth Flow was not going to say no and immediately headed off in the direction where Isa and the rest were.

At that moment, Extreme Ocean heard a soft scoff.

“You sure take good care of your subordinates. However, your subordinates don’t seem too loyal.”

Extreme Ocean looked very awkward.

Vine Source was the helper that Lin Yuan had sent.

Extreme Ocean had been feeling at ease ever since he regained contact with Lin Yuan.

However, Vine Source’s tongue was forked, and he always had to add a few jabs between every few sentences.

It was true that Isa and the rest were disloyal. But they would not have betrayed him if Vine Source and the rest had not used such extreme methods! Even he had been forced into submission, much less Isa and the rest!

But all of them served the same master now and were considered colleagues. Did Vine Source have to make so many cutting remarks?

Extreme Ocean’s temper was not pleasant either. Just because he was fully submissive to Lin Yuan did not mean that he could remain as amiable toward Vine Source.

Extreme Ocean sensed a familiar mermaid emperor aura from Lin Yuan. It did not match the auras of his subordinates at all.

Extreme Ocean guessed that Vine Source and the rest were in the same situation as him. Lin Yuan had subjugated all of them!

Extreme Ocean immediately rebuked, “Are your subordinates very loyal to you? Aren’t you also doing the job of lackeys now? Take my advice and keep your mouth shut. If anything happens that impacts our Lord’s plan, I will report the entire situation to him without holding anything back!”

Vine Source was used to living a life of luxury in the marsh world and detested insubordination.

Although he was now under Lin Yuan’s control and needed to dedicate his loyalty, no one besides Lin Yuan dared to utter a word against him. Even Eternal Source, who Lin Yuan was most reliant on, had to show him sufficient respect when they spoke.

Yet, Extreme Ocean refused to keep his head down around Vine Source and even used Lin Yuan to exert pressure on him.

Nonetheless, Vine Source could not stand such behavior.

Extreme Ocean often caused trouble for him when it was unprovoked and even ordered him around.

That crossed the line for Vine Source.

“Extreme Ocean, you are the one in charge of this assignment. My suggestion is that you assume the proper position. Otherwise, you can’t blame me for being unable to help you!”

Extreme Ocean’s chest tightened, but he did not back down.

“Based on what you said, I can also report to Lord Lin Yuan before the assignment begins! I’m sure Lord Lin Yuan won’t mind switching out a helper for the plan’s success!

“Do you really think that you’ll be able to bring me down? I tested the effects of Evil Source’s poison. When combined with my own poison, the other royal attendants will definitely lose a large portion of their abilities for some time. I can flee without any issues while they are under the effects of the poison!

“Lord Lin Yuan is waiting to hear from me. What do you think will happen to you if I tell Lord Lin Yuan about everything that happened here? So it would be better for you to focus on doing your work and keep your mouth shut.”

After Vine Source was beaten in a battle of words, he transformed into a seed that Extreme Ocean planted in a nearby flower pot.

Next, Extreme Ocean called two servants over and instructed them to place the flower pot on a table in the hall.

The table was not in use. Thus, placing the flower pot on it did not make it conspicuous.

To add assurance, Extreme Ocean even buried a few shells that could create aura blocks in the flower pot.

Now that all the preparations were complete, Extreme Ocean changed clothes and waited for the other three invitees of the banquet to arrive.

When Extreme Ocean walked out from his bed chamber, he saw that Ancient Ocean, Ink Ocean, and Frozen Ocean were already waiting for him in the main hall.

When they spotted Extreme Ocean, Ancient Ocean, who never got along with Extreme Ocean, said in a cold voice, “You said that you will be serving the Wine of Exquisite Water Waves in a banquet that you want us to attend and that you have something that you need to discuss. We brought all the patrolling sea envoys over because of this. Yet, you, the host, arrived last. That is unacceptable! Extreme Ocean, don’t you think that you owe us an explanation?”

Extreme Ocean frowned when he heard what Ancient Ocean said, but his brow soon relaxed.

They were about to fall into his trap and meet their doom. Thus, he did not mind leaving them with some of their pride for now.

If Extreme Ocean and Ancient Ocean began squabbling, it would undoubtedly affect the progression of the plan.

He had used Lin Yuan’s plan to threaten Vine Source. If he acted without thought of Lin Yuan’s plan, Vine Source would definitely use his actions to deal him a blow.

Extreme Ocean did not want to give Vine Source such an opportunity!

Extreme Ocean adjusted his emotions and said in a pained voice, “I wasn’t planning on making such a late entrance. I was mulling over some matters and ended up delayed.

“Mermaid Forbidden Sea’s overall power is increasing. They might appear to be at peace but have been in turmoil for some time! I invited all of you over so we can discuss Grace Sacred Hall’s future together. I know that I’m not the strongest and that my abilities are limited. As such, I’m willing to offer my key to the treasure vault!”

Extreme Ocean solemnly took out his key and placed it on the table.

Ancient Ocean had intended to put Extreme Ocean on the spot.

Ink Ocean and Frozen Ocean knew of the deep hostility between Ancient Ocean and Extreme Ocean, so they did not step in.

Both of them were trying to guess how Extreme Ocean would react.

Although they had guessed that this gathering would not end on a positive note, they had not expected Extreme Ocean to say such a thing.

The four of them were the heart of Grace Sacred Hall and divided up the territory into four districts that represented each of the four directions, and each one of them occupied one of the districts.

The district that Extreme Ocean occupied happened to be the closest to Mermaid Forbidden Sea. It was completely possible for him to have caught wind of something that had yet to reach the other three.

Mermaid Sacred Hall had been oppressing Grace Sacred Hall.

Mermaid Forbidden Sea was now a common plague for the four royal attendants. All of them were terrified that Mermaid Forbidden Sea would suddenly attack one day.

Ink Ocean said in a low voice, “Extreme Ocean, if something has happened over in Mermaid Forbidden Sea, tell us about it quickly so that we’ll be able to make preparations as soon as possible!”

Extreme Ocean held up the teapot filled with the Wine of Exquisite Water Waves and poured the contents out into four cups before handing three of the cups to Ancient Ocean, Frozen Ocean, and Ink Ocean.
