"So he probably doesn't have a grudge against me. Since there's no grudge but he still sought me out, his purpose should be quite obvious," Su Ye said slowly.
"What purpose?" Consort Liu looked at Su Ye with some curiosity; she really didn't know this part.
"This idiot probably wants to recruit me as his Subordinate Lord," Su Ye said with a smile.
"Hmm?" Both Consort Liu and Dawn Moon looked at Su Ye.
According to what Su Ye said, that guy must really be mentally ill. Where did he get the nerve to actually want to take the Emperor as his Subordinate Lord? Does he want to die?
At this moment, unmasked killing intent rose in the eyes of both Consort Liu and Dawn Moon.
In the eyes of Consort Liu and Dawn Moon, this was an insult that deserved death.
Su Ye looked at Consort Liu and Dawn Moon with a smile. "Alright, while this guy has quite a few issues, they aren't that big. Now that we know his purpose, there's nothing to fear."
"By the way, there's another thing about this guy: he can be reborn once. Heaven knows if he can be reborn a second time." Su Ye looked at Dawn Moon and Consort Liu.
Hearing Su Ye's words, Dawn Moon and Consort Liu raised their eyebrows. Since Rebirth had already happened once, who could guarantee it wouldn't happen a second time?
This was also what Su Ye was worried about, though not excessively so. After all, Ye Xiu's appearance served as a reminder: before attaining absolute strength, he was just a Tech-side lord, and could only remain a Tech-side lord.
"How do you think we should deal with him?" Su Ye asked, looking at Dawn Moon and Consort Liu.
"We don't know yet if he can undergo a second Rebirth; that's the issue. Until then, we can either block him or cooperate. Since he's been reborn, it's normal for him to know a lot of future information, and he should have plenty of resources in hand," Consort Liu said slowly.
"The prerequisite is not to expose our true strength. Just treat it like playing with a fool; that guy doesn't seem very bright anyway," Dawn Moon added.
"Fine, we can keep an eye on this guy. In the future, he can be the one to clear the mines and take the risks," Su Ye said with a smile, now that he knew the other party was a reborn individual.
With that knowledge, he could be on guard. Reborn individuals were always a source of trouble, but for Su Ye, it was also a good thing. Such existences would often attract the attention of others.
With him taking the heat, the problem wouldn't be big. Su Ye could continue to develop in secret; if anything happened, he could just let the other guy handle it.
Thinking of this, Su Ye made his arrangements, deciding to treat him like a normal customer.
If he didn't act normal, Su Ye would just block him directly.
The guy only knew so much, which wasn't a disadvantage for Su Ye; instead, it was a benefit. He could even advertise for Su Ye. Most importantly, he didn't seem to have any enmity toward him.
In other words, Su Ye wasn't his enemy before his Rebirth.
On Ye Xiu's side, seeing that Su Ye hadn't replied to his message for a long time, a smile appeared on his face.
"This guy must have been intimidated by me. He's probably thinking about how to curry favor with me now," Ye Xiu thought with confidence.
After all, he could predict the future, while Su Ye was just a minor Tech-side lord with no prospects.
Having encountered a big shot like himself, wouldn't he come to cling to his thigh?
Ding!
The private message notification rang. Ye Xiu opened the message, and the smile on his face froze.
[Otherworld Traveler: Oh, I see.]
Ye Xiu:????
What kind of reaction was that? What did he mean by 'Oh, I see'?
Do you understand what it means to predict the future? Do you understand what it means to see the future?
Now, it was Ye Xiu's turn to get anxious.
[One Leaf Knows Autumn: Don't you want to know what will happen in the future? Don't you want to know what enemies you will encounter?]
Su Ye looked at the message from Ye Xiu and smiled at Consort Liu and Dawn Moon. "See, I told you. If I sent that, he'd get anxious. Look, he's anxious now."
Dawn Moon and Consort Liu watched Su Ye, who was full of mischief.
Su Ye had also thought about killing this reborn person, but there was no way. First, he couldn't find his territory, and second, even if he found and killed him, whether he would undergo Rebirth again was still a question.
Instead of that, it was better to let him take the heat and attract attention. Protagonists were a group of characters who came with their own trouble-attracting auras.
[Otherworld Traveler: Even if I know, so what? I'm just a Tech-side lord. Since you can predict the future, do you know what my talent is?]
Su Ye sent the message with a hint of curiosity, giving Ye Xiu one last test.
[One Leaf Knows Autumn: Concealment, a talent that only has the effect of hiding your territory.]
"Sure enough, this guy really is reborn. I only just thought of this talent recently, yet he already knows it without me saying a word." Su Ye was now completely certain. He had been ninety percent convinced before, but now it was a full hundred percent.
[Otherworld Traveler: Since you already know, then what does it matter if I know the future or not? I'm just an Arms Dealer; go find someone else.]
[Otherworld Traveler: By the way, if you want to buy arms, go find Little Merchant. I'm already cooperating with her. Talk to her if there's anything. Is there anything else?]
Ye Xiu looked at Su Ye's reply and fell into a complete silence.
How could there be such a person in this world? But thinking back, this guy really did seem like that kind of person. He claimed not to be interested in money, but everything he did was part of a highly profitable business.
He even put precious resources like faith statues, hero promotion cards, and Divinity up for sale.
This was the true reason why Ye Xiu wanted to recruit Su Ye as a Subordinate Lord. Su Ye would put too many good things up for sale later on—so many that even he, a reborn person, was green with envy.
[One Leaf Knows Autumn: Follow me and sign a contract. I can make you a god. You know that Tech-side lords cannot become gods; the path is different and has an upper limit.]
Su Ye looked at the message from Ye Xiu.
"As I thought, this lunatic wants to recruit me as a Subordinate Lord," Su Ye couldn't help but complain.
Unmasked killing intent flickered in the eyes of Dawn Moon and Consort Liu. Anyone disrespectful to Su Ye deserved to die.
This was a desecration of the Emperor, a heresy that was absolutely not allowed to exist.
[Otherworld Traveler: You lunatic, why the hell would I want to become a god? It's not like the Tech-side can't achieve eternal life. Becoming a god is so hard, just you become one. Why drag me into it? Lunatic. Blocked.]
Su Ye blocked Ye Xiu directly. If Ye Xiu had just looked for him to cooperate, Su Ye might have considered it despite him being a reborn person.
But this guy just had to be a lunatic who wanted him to become a Subordinate Lord. Su Ye had to stay far away from such people.
As everyone knows, the friends and family of a protagonist always end up in a miserable state. Su Ye didn't want to become a target for retaliation.
If he were to be implicated because of this lunatic, the losses would outweigh the gains. Looking at the things this guy said, he lived entirely in his own world, completely disregarding whether others were willing or not.
You're a reborn person? Well, I'm a Transmigrator. Didn't you see that even I am still staying low-key to develop? Being so flashy, aren't you afraid of getting beaten up?
