I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second - Chapter 449: A Disgusting Decision

Chapter 449: Chapter 449: A Disgusting Decision

The bustling voices poured in from outside the window, leaving Lin Yi puzzled.

Since entering Shenxiao, having lived in the villa area for quite some time, he had never encountered such a noisy situation.

All the students of Shenxiao were well-behaved. To be able to study there, who was not an outstanding and aspiring young person?

With this confusion, he pushed open the door and immediately saw not far away the deans of the five major academies and dozens of exceptional strongmen from Xia.

The moment Lin Yi appeared, this group’s gazes instantly fell on him.

Regardless of Lin Yi’s astonished face, Lan Ruoxi immediately pulled her proud disciple into the crowd.

“Lin Yi, meeting again so soon…”

Zhou Heyu, full of kindness, shook hands with Lin Yi.

“Oh right, let me introduce you. This is the Grand Marshal of the Xia Professional Alliance Army, He Zhenyuan. You can just call him Uncle He.”

….

At this moment, Lin Yi finally realized that the reason the villa area was so noisy was that many prominent figures from Xia had come to Shenxiao, drawing students to stop and watch because of him.

These big figures were here precisely because of him.

Seeing these often unattainable big shots warmly shake hands and greet Lin Yi, the students of Shenxiao finally had a realization.

Indeed.

Shenxiao is undoubtedly the number one academy in Xia.

To simultaneously attract dozens of big shots, probably only Lin Yi has such capability.

The title of the Great Demon King isn’t called for no reason.

After the necessary introductions, led by the five deans, the group headed to the Shenxiao conference room to discuss Xia’s mastery of the Dragon God power.

The oath of secrecy must be signed.

The Dragon God power that Xia regained is considered a secret weapon capable of turning the tide of battle.

In order to ensure that the secret weapon can work wonders at critical moments, Xia’s high-ranking officials hope Lin Yi can keep this matter confidential.

This secrecy oath has no downside for Lin Yi.

Importantly, acting low-key could provide Ao Xuan’s child with more time and space to grow, rather than being targeted by the powerful beings of the Blue Star countries as soon as acquiring potential, eager to eliminate.

“Of course, I have no problem with this, Mr. Zhou, Uncle He.”

“Even if I didn’t sign a secrecy oath, I wouldn’t publicly disclose my opportunity to master the Dragon God power. Ao Xuan’s child is still young, and I have yet to imbue her with the Dragon’s essence to grant her a soul.”

“Even with the Dragon God bloodline, she requires much time to fully develop and potentially decide the fate of nations.”

“Perhaps I might not even live to see her storm across the world.”

“But Mr. Zhou, you, Uncle He, and the seniors personally coming this way, it shouldn’t just be about a secrecy oath, correct?”

The military officials, led by He Zhenyuan, seeing Lin Yi so straightforward, stated their purpose explicitly.

A normal lifespan is no more than a century, and even achieving the status of a powerful War God provides just 360 years.

But the Dragon Race is different.

Especially those powerful beings with the Dragon God bloodline, their lengthy lifespans are unimaginable. It’s said that the five-clawed golden dragon that passed its entire bloodline to Ai Linlin had a terrifying lifespan nearing one hundred thousand years.

Upon hearing what happened in the Nibelungen Dungeon, Xia’s upper echelons were initially elated.

Having a Xia descendant wield the Dragon God power, how could they not be pleased?

However, their joy was short-lived.

Human nature is inherently greedy.

Xia’s high-ranking officials had to consider a realistic issue — once Lin Yi dies, then no one else would be qualified to control the Dragon God power, leaving them in a predicament.

Initially, Lin Yi’s eyes towards Xia’s big names were full of respect.

Upon hearing He Zhenyuan’s words, his face immediately darkened.

The secrets of the Dragon Race, perhaps others didn’t know, but didn’t Lin Yi?

When needed, we are good brothers.

Once peace prevails, or when Xia’s humans can secure that peace through their strength alone, does the powerful and uncontrollable foreign ally become a threat?

Why?

Do they wish to reenact the tragedy from hundreds of years ago?

“Ha, what a calculation, Grand Marshal He!”

“Planning to enslave the Dragon God power through me?”

“If you’ve come for this, then please leave.”

The dragon race’s downfall battle wasn’t related to He Zhenyuan and his group.

But He Zhenyuan’s group could well represent Xia’s upper echelons.

How much has the leadership changed from those hundreds of years ago to now?

Lin Yi knew well.

If agreeing to the leadership’s demands meant that in hundreds or even thousands of years, should Ao Xuan’s child become uncontrollable and a threat to Xia,

would Xia re-enact the tragedy from hundreds of years ago?

“Lin Yi, do you even know what you’re talking about?”

“On the day you became a professional, you made an oath to give your all for Xia.”

“Now, we’re just discussing this with you, yet you have this attitude. How can you live up to the country’s nurturing of you?”

In one corner of the conference room, an eighth-level male general spoke.

His eyes were full of a ’why are you disappointing’ sentiment, even a hint of impatience towards Lin Yi.

After this general spoke, other members of the Alliance began to voice their opinions, starting moral accusations, slowly pressuring Lin Yi.

Among this group of military people, there were quite a few regular professionals (non-combat roles).

How they achieved such high positions in a military filled with talent is truly thought-provoking.

The words they said were indeed unpleasant to hear.

“Ha, He Zhenyuan, who would’ve thought that bringing me here would be for this charade?”

“I do have a friendship with Lin Yi, but speaking of obligations, I don’t owe any. If there’s nothing else, then I’ll leave first. I’m feeling a bit unwell.”

Zhou Heyu hadn’t anticipated that some among the upper echelons could make such disgusting decisions.

The disaster that nearly wiped out the entire Dragon Race, in their eyes, could just be washed away with the passage of a hundred years?

Do they wish to put shackles on Ao Xuan’s child?

Who can guarantee she won’t become a tool or even a victim of the power struggle?

How can they speak such shameless words? Are they human?

Lin Yi observed closely.

Throughout the conference room, a small portion of the military members, including He Zhenyuan, showed signs of surprise.

Clearly, they didn’t expect that many of their colleagues would speak such shameless words.

A group of seasoned veterans wandering between military and politics had the audacity to morally accuse a mere nineteen-year-old junior, truly shaming the military.

Amid the voices of persuasion from several military members, Lin Yi slowly stood up. In the next second, with thunderous speed, he slapped the table before him to pieces.
