His subordinates all wisely refrained from disturbing him, except...

"Why do you look like this again?"

Looking at Constance, who was shrouded in black mist, Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow.

Dahlia was on the verge of tears, her watery eyes looking pitifully at the other person:

"I didn't expect this either. That Void Envoy's strike was beyond my imagination. I thought I had burned the Void to ashes with flames in that instant, but I didn't expect it to rise from the ashes again... Help, sir!"

"Stop howling."

Lin Yuan stood up and shone his palm down on Lin Yuan's head. A bright light emerged, like the rising sun, and wisps of black smoke rose up and then disappeared.

A moment later, the black aura surrounding the other party dissipated. But Lin Yuan noticed that the dahlia's figure had also become transparent, like a female ghost.

"Are you OK?"

"I... feel much better."

Dahlia closed her eyes and sensed for a moment, a smile appearing on her face. But when she looked down at her transparent hand, she suddenly froze.

"My lord, your light is too intense, my body cannot bear it... Perhaps I will simply dissipate. It was truly a pleasure to know you, please... forget me."

A poignant expression appeared on her face.

"Alright, then I'll cremate you to save you the pain." Lin Yuan pretended to raise his hand again.

Dahlia quickly projected her image onto the porthole: "No, no, no! I'm just a little weak, I'll be fine after a period of rest."

"Why so much drama?" Lin Yuan scoffed. "Hurry up and rest. I have an important mission to assign you once we get to headquarters."

"No way, it's only been a short time and they're already starting to exploit my remaining value? I'm starting to regret it." A soft snort rang out.

Why sleep so much before death? After death, everything will fall into place...

"Tsk."

The sound disappeared, and the dahlia vanished without a trace.

Lin Yuan withdrew his attention, his expression returning to calm. He glanced at the star map; they were not far from Pierpont.

Unfortunately, neither Oswaldo nor the board of directors has responded yet.

"Dong dong dong."

His fingers tapped on the table, the crisp sound echoing in his mind, gradually merging with the sound of him smashing the Incarnation of Order with three hammer blows in Pinocchio.

"I'm giving you a chance, and I hope you can seize it."

The warship sped toward Pierpoint, and the massive stargate came into view ahead.

..........

Finally, the supreme guardianship order returned him to his loyal Pierpont.

Passing through the stargate, it was a familiar scene. Lin Yuan's flagship passed through without any hindrance, and he made no attempt to conceal his identity.

Soon, the colossal planet appeared before them. Although his view was obstructed, Lin Yuan could still sense the Amber King's majestic divine body.

In Pinocchio, he truly felt the gaze of this star god. Now, he could confidently say that he was the agent of the preserver's will.

Instead of going to the headquarters of the market development department, Lin Yuan went straight back to his own territory.

Looking down at the densely packed city below, Lin Yuan was somewhat surprised.

What was originally an empty lot has now been transformed into a sizable, technologically advanced city, and the entire city is his territory, serving him personally.

"That's the speed of a company," Lin Yuan remarked with some emotion.

The flagship landed at the massive airport in the center of the city. As soon as the hatch opened, several subordinates who had been waiting for a long time immediately came to greet it.

"Director, welcome back." Ai Bai stood in front, a smile on her face.

"Your crisis management department has been established."

"Well done." Lin Yuan looked around and nodded in satisfaction.

The group quickly boarded a flying car and drove through the clean city, arriving in front of a huge building with a simple yet majestic design.

The building's facade is adorned with a huge company logo, and numerous tall corporate mechs serve as sentries around it.

Upon entering the building, a spacious area came into view. Many company employees at the front desk stood up and bowed when they saw him arrive.

Lin Yuan returned the greeting briefly, then followed the others onto the elevator, which took them directly to the top floor.

The huge floor-to-ceiling windows offered a panoramic view of the entire territory. Lin Yuan sat in his seat, his gaze sweeping over the people in front of him.

"Then, let me give you a brief explanation."

During the next few systems sessions, he attended several briefings in succession.

Information regarding the department's personnel structure and operations, as well as the development of its armed forces, is available. The Celestial Race members on the Immortal Ship have completed their training, and their equipment is gradually arriving. Additionally, there are updates on intelligence, logistics, and public opinion.

Lin Yuan listened while taking notes on his terminal, occasionally interjecting with a few questions, and finally yawned, feeling somewhat bored.

"Well done, but not enough. Get ready, there might be big changes coming up."

He said earnestly.

.........

Later that evening, Lin Yuan hosted a banquet at the usual spot, inviting all his core subordinates to dinner.

The private room reserved just for him was packed with people, creating a lively atmosphere.

After several rounds of drinks and several dishes, Lin Yuan beckoned, and a figure emerged from the corner and walked to his side.

"Let me introduce you all." Lin Yuan clapped his hands. "This is Constance, my second-in-command, who will be helping me with things from now on. A powerful memory traveler, we can all help each other out."

Dahlia was somewhat surprised to see that Lin Yuan had several other seemingly extraordinary Destiny Walkers under his command.

She adjusted her glasses and gave a professional smile: "Hello everyone, nice to meet you."

"Of course, if Miss Constance goes a bit too far while I'm not around, you can let me know, and I'll teach her a lesson later."

Lin Yuan added.

Laughter broke out, and Dahlia rolled her eyes at him without saying anything more.

The banquet continued into the night in a lively atmosphere. Lin Yuanxing, having had his fill, returned to his lakeside residence.

He arranged a secluded spot for the dahlias, and before leaving, he earnestly instructed them:

"You are free to do as you please, as long as I can find you when I need you."

But let me warn you, Pierpoint is not like other places. Here, I have three overt messengers, and who knows what else is lurking in the shadows. Be careful.

Also, you can use your abilities, but you absolutely cannot tamper with my people, understand?

"Tsk, I'm not stupid." Dahlia's voice faded, and her figure vanished without a trace.

"Hopefully."

Lin Yuan returned to the pavilion and looked at the lake. He took out his terminal and first checked what information his department had, but unfortunately there was none.

But suddenly, a pop-up window appeared, and Lin Yuan's eyes lit up.

[Dear Director Lin Yuan, the Board of Directors is aware of your request and will appoint a director to meet with you online. Time: Ten system hours later. Please attend on time.]

"What a pity, Oswaldo." Lin Yuan shook his head.

"I gave you a chance, but you didn't do it."

Chapter 356 Taravan Keane

"I wonder which board member met with me?"

Lin Yuan put down the terminal and began to ponder. A night breeze rippled across the water's surface.

He closed his eyes and concentrated, when suddenly a thought struck him. As he silently recited a mantra, his figure vanished from this world.

Not long after he disappeared, a figure appeared near the pavilion.

Constance looked around, a hint of confusion on her face.

After sensing something but finding nothing, she pursed her lips.

"Where did you run off to? People want to see if there's anything interesting there."

..........

Lin Yuan opened his eyes, and the scene before him suddenly changed.

An endless white light filled his vision, and all around him was peaceful and serene. He was now in that void, with an endless, pitch-black world in the distance, and he was the only light in that darkness.

"Indeed, although this space is independent of the material universe, as its owner, I can come here at any time."

A smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face. He could feel the boundaries of this world constantly expanding, the white light refining the darkness, and slowly growing.

This is his world, where he can hide himself or increase his strength in the future.

"One day, this place will envelop the entire material universe, and everything will be rebuilt after everything is destroyed."

Lin Yuan closed his eyes, and in a daze, he was back at the lakeside, but not much time had passed.

"When there are less than ten systems left."

He picked up the hot drink on the table and sipped it.

...........

Time flew by, and a few system hours later, Lin Yuan arrived in the living room ahead of schedule and connected to the online meeting.

Once the image became clear, a slightly plump figure appeared on the other side.

The other person was in a dimly lit room, and despite his large belly, his face was indistinct.

Lin Yuan recognized the other person, which surprised him, but it was also understandable.

To meet him, the Protector of the Order, one would naturally need another Protector of the Order.

The person before me is P48, the head of the building materials logistics department and the storage envoy, Taravan Keane.

This most senior director on the board looks nothing like a diamond; he's more like a greedy businessman in the traditional sense.
