102: Chapter 102 What if the fish don't bite?

"Commission Temple? After registering, can a demigod purchase any resources worth 300 divine power points at half price in the temple every month?"

"What is this thing for? Giving away divine power points for free? Even if you're rich, you don't throw money away like this, right?"

"I've actually heard of this. There are these kinds of Commission Temples in some large Star Domains. They post tasks inside, like searching for people, finding items, or escorting. You can get a certain reward after completing the task, but this thing is usually only found in large Star Domains. How did it open up here?"

"I don't care about other things; I just want to know if what's written on this thing—that you can buy 300 divine power points worth of resources at half price every month—is true?"

"It doesn't seem too far from here. Should we go take a look?"

Soon, the group changed direction and walked quickly toward the address on the flyer. As the flyers were distributed, a large number of demigods and even deities soon came seeking it out of curiosity.

In the Hu Family, Hu Rong was currently trying to persuade her parents.

"Dad, Mom! Just trust me. It doesn't take much effort to register. If it turns out to be fake later, you can just cancel it. The Lord would certainly not lie to anyone!"

"Saying 'the Lord' every other sentence, you have truly thrown away all of our Hu Family's Face! This so-called Commission Temple, I will not go no matter what! Give up on this idea."

"Sigh, Rongrong. How could you become a Slave God for someone just like that?! Listen to Mom, let's go over there right now and make that kid break the contract for you. If he dares to refuse, your father and I will risk our old Faces to ask an Elder to stand up for you!"

Hearing her mother bring this up again, Hu Rong appeared somewhat helpless.

"Mom! How many times do I have to say it, I initiated this contract myself. You saw the resources in my Divine Kingdom, there's even a Spiritual Vein worth hundreds of thousands of divine power points! You don't have these things, but the Lord just gave them to me like that. You can't bring yourselves to go together because of your Face, and now you won't even register to take advantage of the benefits. When the Lord has finished recruiting people, you'll know regret!"

Upon hearing her daughter's words, Hu Rong's father couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.

"Is that how you talk to your parents! Do you know what you're saying? Asking your parents to go with you and become Slave Gods for someone, you are truly filial!"

Hearing this, Hu Rong couldn't help but mutter in a low voice, "But the Lord really gives resources; those are Divine Artifacts…"

Seeing that his daughter still dared to talk back, Hu Rong's father's anger grew even more intense.

"So what if it's a Divine Artifact! A Divine Artifact is enough to sell your parents?! Are your parents worth so little?!"

"If you don't want to go, then forget it. I have things to do, so I'll be leaving first."

"You're going to be the death of us! Hurry up and go break that Slave God Contract. Otherwise, your mother and I will just have another child!"

Regarding her father's words, Hu Rong just threw back one sentence: "Suit yourselves."

Fang Yuan and the other juniors who had become Lin Xiao's Slave Gods were currently in the same situation as Hu Rong. They had been fiercely scolded by their parents, and some had even received a "loving education."

When everyone met up later and saw each other's appearance, it went without saying that they knew the outcome.

"These old antiques, they used to educate me every day about assessing the situation. Now, they can't see this clearly. How many resources does the Family distribute each month? Just the complete Divine Artifact the Lord gave me, my parents wouldn't know how long they'd have to save up to afford it. They're obsessed with Face!"

"Who's to say it isn't? My dad insisted on me breaking the contract. When I said I wouldn't, he gave me such a beating. He even said my account was considered ruined and that he wanted to start a new 'small account' with my mom. They don't even look at the resources the Lord gave me, never mind all those A-grade resources. Just a single Spiritual Vein is something my parents don't even have! If you ask me, they're just stubborn. The Lord's treatment is only because it hasn't been known to outsiders yet. Once they know about the treatment here, the deities will be fighting to get in!"

"It makes me so mad! Such a good opportunity, and my parents just can't grasp it. If I weren't weaker than them, I'd want to press their heads down and make them become Slave Gods for the Lord. Why can't they just change their perspective? The Li Family doesn't hesitate to place heavy bets to curry favor with the big clans in the first-tier Star Domain. The Lord is even from a big clan on Xuanyuan Star in the central first-tier Star Domain! Not only does the Lord not suck our blood, but he even cultivates us regardless of the cost. Such good treatment, why can't my parents understand it? They insist on waiting until things are clear to place their bets, but by then, where will there be any spots left?!"

At this moment, with the distribution of a large number of flyers, the newly opened Commission Temple was already crowded with demigods and deities who had come to inquire.

Meng Ning and the others kept repeating the answers that had already been said thousands of times.

"Yes, everything written on the flyer is true. As long as you register to become a member of our Commission Temple, you can purchase 300 divine power points worth of resources at half price every month."

"You can buy any resources. There are no restrictions on their use; once you buy the resources, they are yours. We, the temple, will not interfere with how you want to use them."

Following the explanations from Meng Ning and the others, people kept starting to register as temple members. It didn't cost anything anyway, and trying it wouldn't mean losing anything.

In just over half an hour, the number of members of the Commission Temple skyrocketed to 30,000! Among them were quite a few First-order Deities.

As these 30,000 people left, the number of people at the temple didn't decrease but instead increased. Demigods and deities who received the news kept coming upon hearing the word.

Seeing the situation at the scene, everyone was afraid that the quota was limited. They didn't even have time to ask carefully and registered as members first.

As more and more people arrived, the powerful families in Anping County and those high-order deities also received the news.

In the Chen Family meeting hall, a group of Chen Family Elders was discussing Lin Xiao's Commission Temple. An Elder with a somewhat pale complexion coughed.

During the previous battle, he had sustained quite serious injuries, and they hadn't fully healed yet.

"It seems this incident has also scared this kid. To make such a big commotion all of a sudden, is he trying to quickly establish his own power?"

"It looks like that's the intention. Using the name of this Commission Temple to scout the situation. Directly absorbing any deities he takes a liking to; it's quite a good calculation."

"Heh, the idea is quite good. But if the fish only eats the bait and doesn't take the hook, what will he do? 300 for demigods per month, 1500 for First-order Deities per month, 3000 for Second-order Deities. Tell me, if we send all the demigods and deities of our entire Family over, what will he do then?"

"Hahaha, aren't you just giving the child a difficult problem?"

"Hmph, if he wants to stir up trouble in Anping County, he naturally has to be prepared to be made things difficult for. Which of our families didn't come up this way? If he can't even solve this small trouble, then he should extinguish his thoughts early."

The Fang Family, Hu Family, Liu Family, and so on—not only these powerful families, but those large forces also made the same move at this moment.

They dispatched all the demigods and deities within their families, and even Second-order Elders and Family Heads were all dispatched. They didn't just go themselves; they didn't forget to call along some friends.

They wanted to see how Lin Xiao would refuse these people? And what would he do if he couldn't produce the promised resources at the end of the month?!

Under their instigation, even some Third-order Deitys, not knowing what they were thinking, actually followed along to join in the fun.

Regarding this, Lin Xiao's actions exceeded everyone's expectations.

He didn't refuse anyone! Regardless of whose Elder or Family Head you were. Regardless of whether you were Second-order or Third-order, as long as you dared to come, he registered everyone.
