Chapter 2841 All the Members in Attendance!
Regardless of how much wealth Ta Lei amassed in Thick Soil City, he would never have a better quality of life than the lifeforms who went to the Sky Beyond the Clouds and continuously evolved their life rank.
Before coming to the Sky Beyond the Clouds, no one had a frame of reference for what they could encounter there. Not even Lin Yuan knew what the Sky Beyond the Clouds would be like.
But ever since arriving at the Sky Beyond the Clouds and being exposed to this wide world filled with such exquisite spirit qi, Bai Qinghuan felt as though she were given a new lease on life!
Bai Qinghuan did not envy the strong. Rather, now that she was in this wider world, she wanted to use her own capabilities to change this world. She believed that Lin Yuan would be willing to give her the opportunity to do so.
Su Yiren, Luo Lan, Wen Yu, and Liu Jie shared the same ambitions as Bai Qinghuan.
Lin Yuan looked at Sky City’s main members, whose eyes were blazing with ambition, and said with a smile, “We haven’t had a proper meeting in a long time. We have gained our footing in the Sky Beyond the Clouds and need to begin our development! During this meeting, you will be given individual responsibilities, and we can discuss how you’ll carry out these responsibilities.”
While Lin Yuan was giving out his orders, he emanated the aura of a superior.
Lin Yuan never intended to discuss the responsibilities of Sky City’s members with them. Rather, he would make the decisions on his own.
Firstly, as Sky City’s leader, Lin Yuan was aware of each of their abilities and knew which direction would be best for them.
For some of them, like Su Yiren and Luo Lan, Lin Yuan had already communicated his plans to them.
But there were a few members whose roles had yet to be set. Lin Yuan was going to use this meeting to confirm their roles.
Wen Yu spoke first. “Young Master, you should be the one to decide all our directions and responsibilities. In the past, you gave us space to make our own decisions. But if you have any requests, just let us know, and all of us will do our best to fulfill them!”
Wen Yu’s words immediately garnered a response from the group.
Lin Yuan smiled and said, “Wen Yu, you will continue to serve as my assistant and help with Sky City’s overall tasks.
“If anyone encounters any issues in the future, continue to inform Wen Yu of them. Wen Yu will collate the information before giving me a report on them. I will be leaving Sky City soon and might not be returning for some time. During that time, all of you will be working under Wen Yu’s management.”
Lin Yuan’s words demonstrated Wen Yu’s importance, and once again, the group was reminded of her status in Sky City.
Recently, all of Sky City’s main members had obtained substantial power and authority. All of them competed fairly for faith power, and it was easy for them to forget the authority that Wen Yu held in Sky City. This would not benefit Wen Yu when she began managing Sky City in Lin Yuan’s stead.
Hence, Lin Yuan needed to say these things before he left.
All of their expressions froze momentarily before they began looking at Wen Yu differently.
Now that Wen Yu’s role had been declared, Lin Yuan hurriedly went on to address the plan for Liu Jie.
“Liu Jie, you will continue to manage the white-clothed followers and oversee all of the reserve and combat sequence members. Duan He and Zhou Luo will be your assistants and help you manage the white-clothed followers.
“Big Brother Liu, I suggest that you spend more time increasing your power. You are no longer restricted by the limited number of Firefly Demon Fetuses and will be able to turn all the carcinoma feys into fairies in a short time before beginning to nurture these fairies.
“I will give you all the resources you’ll need before I leave. As the leader of the white-clothed followers, increasing your power is a priority for you!”
Lin Yuan’s affection for Liu Jie shone through in his words, and his arrangement for Liu Jie cemented the latter’s position in Sky City.
Liu Jie had an unshakable hold on the third-place position in Sky City, and he had status equal to Wen Yu. The two of them and Lin Yuan made up the triangular pinnacle of Sky City’s pyramid.
Listen, Bei Xu, Su Yiren, Luo Lan, and the rest were all well aware of Liu Jie’s position.
Liu Jie had always presented himself as Lin Yuan’s retainer, but it was easy for others to underestimate him because he never undertook any of Sky City’s management tasks.
Liu Jie had spent some time learning from Bai Qinghuan, and the latter had looked down on him. She never expressed this view, but this was how she saw him. To her, he was all bravery but no strategic mind.
This did not refer to Liu Jie’s combat strategies. As the Heart of Insect Swarm that was acknowledged by the entire Radiance Hundred Sequence, Liu Jie’s combat strategies were not lacking, and he could command the army of insects to perfection.
The strategy that Bai Qinghuan was referring to was the management of Sky City’s internal affairs.
Lin Yuan assigned Liu Jie to manage the white-clothed followers and Duan He and Zhou Luo to assist him.
This made Liu Jie’s job extremely simple.
Zhou Luo and Duan He had joined Lin Yuan earlier than Bai Qinghuan did, and they were both very respectful toward Liu Jie. They would never cause any issues while they were assisting him.
Bai Qinghuan hoped that Lin Yuan would allow her to participate in large-scale battles in the future.
Large-scale battles would definitely require the support of Liu Jie, who led the white-clothed followers. Thus, Bai Qinghuan intended to find the opportunity to improve her relationship with Liu Jie properly.
None of Sky City’s members lacked resources, but they would not think of themselves as having too many resources, either.
Lin Yuan had asked Liu Jie to turn all of the insect-species carcinoma feys into fairies. Before leaving for the Sky Beyond the Clouds, Liu Jie had searched the entire main world for insect-species carcinoma feys, and he had brought almost all of them to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
Liu Jie possessed more than 1,000 insect-species carcinoma feys and had nurtured all of them into fairies.
With the exclusion of Lin Yuan, Liu Jie was now the strongest member of Sky City and required an unimaginable amount of resources.
This knowledge affected Liu Jie as well.
He never expected Lin Yuan to use such a luxurious method to increase his power.
Liu Jie knew that Lin Yuan had to have thought the matter through carefully and deeply before making such an arrangement.
With a serious expression, Liu Jie said, “Young Master, I will nurture every fairy and will not let down the trust you have in me!”
Duan He and Zhou Luo were very anxious about their circumstances.
Both of them felt that they only managed to become Sky City’s main members because they became acquainted with Lin Yuan the earliest.
Zhou Luo was the first white-clothed follower Lin Yuan recruited, while Duan He was Sky City’s emperor-class expert. But now, that advantage had been nullified.
Now that Lin Yuan had given the two of them roles similar to what they had held in the past, Zhou Luo and Duan He relaxed fully.
Next, Lin Yuan moved on to Luo Lan and Su Yiren.
Su Yiren’s abilities were stronger than Luo Lan’s. Hence, Su Yiren took the lead when it came to governing the kingdom, while Luo Lan assisted her.
All of Sky City’s main members expected this, and Luo Lan agreed as well.
Even now, there were many things that Luo Lan could learn from Su Yiren.
Luo Lan had been growing rapidly, and Su Yiren had been teaching and guiding her because of the friendship they shared. The two of them were like teacher and student but were also sisters.
After settling Luo Lan and Su Yiren, Lin Yuan moved on to Listen and Endless Summer.
Lin Yuan mulled for a moment before he looked at Qin Yu and asked, “Qin Yu, I am now going to give you a choice. Are you going to manage the Lonely River as a means of training yourself like Bei Xu is going to do or will you join Listen and Endless Summer in building the trading network?
“The trading network is linked to Sky City’s assimilation into the Sky Beyond the Clouds. It will enable Sky City to have a stable source of the Sky Beyond the Clouds’ native resources. I will be giving a lot of support to the building of the trading network.”
Qin Yu used to work with Listen and Endless Summer. The three of them always butted heads over planning decisions.
Most of the time, they would end up following Listen’s decision. Occasionally, they could go with Endless Summer’s decision. Qin Yu did not feel like he was making much of a contribution, and he did not like that feeling.
Hence, despite Lin Yuan emphasizing the importance of the trading network and committing to investing numerous resources in this endeavor, Qin Yu did not intend to continue working with Listen and Endless Summer.
Firstly, it was difficult for him to stand out when he worked with them. Secondly, he shared Bei Xu’s preference for managing factions.
Previously, Qin Yu had only spent a short time learning from Jin Qianxun. Nonetheless, he had managed to organize Thick Soil City well, and there had been many things that Ta Lei needed to rely on Qin Yu for.
However, ever since managing Thick Soil City, Qin Yu had never had the chance to manage another faction or area.
Now that Lin Yuan was giving him the chance to choose, Qin Yu preferred to fight for his passions.
Qin Yu said firmly, “Young Master, just like Bei Xu, I would like to share your burdens. My talent for trading is mediocre, and I caused a lot of issues for Big Brother Listen and Big Sister Summer. I have always felt bad for that.”
Listen and Endless Summer had been working with Qin Yu for more than ten years and knew what troubled him.
It was true that he had made errors regarding planning for resource allocation, but his talent was not as lacking as he made it out to seem.
The talent to manage factions could also be translated to the allocation of resources.
Qin Yu might not have done as good of a job as Bei Xu, but he was not bad either!
The two of them wished Qin Yu a future that he would be satisfied with!
During this meeting, Lin Yuan would decide the development direction for all of Sky City’s key members, and this would essentially be permanent.
Lin Yuan approved of Qin Yu’s bravery in fighting for his future. “Okay. Since you’re interested in and have the determination to manage factions, you will assist Su Yiren and Luo Lan until a suitable territory for you to manage emerges!”
Qin Yu’s eyes filled with gratitude when he heard what Lin Yuan said.
By sending him to work with Su Yiren and Luo Lan, it was clear that Lin Yuan wanted him to work with them.
When it came to management, Qin Yu had only ever learned such skills from Jin Qianxun, who was very conservative and did not show any burning passion or determination for anything. All the skills that Qin Yu had learned were superficial.
Su Yiren and Luo Lan were more capable than Jin Qianxun when it came to this area.
If he were able to learn from them, he would definitely be able to improve his ability to manage factions in the future.
Qin Yu was on relatively good terms with both of them, and they were not considered rivals. He believed that they would be willing to teach him.
As Lin Yuan’s Path Protector, Blood Love would remain by Lin Yuan’s side in his future training and journeys. There was no need for him to make any arrangements for her.
Zong Ze and Gu Lang were part of Sky City now, but he had yet to assign them tasks that were related to Sky City. Instead, he had told them to spend time learning and gaining an understanding of Sky City.
After spending such a long time learning, both of them had to have come up with their own thoughts and opinions.
“Zong Ze and Gu Lang, which direction do the two of you want to take? Will you join the building of the trading network or work with Qin Yu in managing the faction?”
Gu Lang always had a clear plan for his life. He had been prepared from the moment he decided to follow Lin Yuan to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
“City Lord, I hope to work with Listen and Endless Summer in establishing the trading network! That is where my skills lie. As a newcomer, I will take on a learner’s mindset when working with Listen and Endless Summer.”
Gu Lang’s tone was very humble, but he was not trying to come across in such a way. This was just his plan.
He needed to understand Listen and Endless Summer’s styles and rhythms before he could coordinate with them. The three of them would become a tight-knit and well-oiled team.
After hearing that Qin Yu experienced numerous issues working with Listen and Endless Summer, Gu Lang would try his best to avoid encountering such problems.
Gu Lang always admired Listen.
When Gu Lang first became acquainted with Lin Yuan, Listen had only been the manager of a small chamber of commerce.
Lin Yuan never stopped providing Listen with opportunities that would enable any chamber of commerce to rise in prominence.
After the dead spirits crisis ended, Listen used his abilities to form a trading network with all the main world’s federations. Even the Bamboo Monarch could not help but sing praises of Listen.
Gu Lang was very willing to work with such an outstanding figure because this was the only way he would be able to continuously improve.
Given Gu Lang’s understanding of Zong Ze, the latter would be uninterested in managing factions and building a trading network.
Even without his curse, Zong Ze was a fighter through and through.
