Chapter 303: A Show of Power and Kindness
"If you are certain about pledging loyalty to me, you need to perform the Blood Pledge of Dominance."
Yi Chen reminded him.
He hadn’t figured out the soul contract yet and didn’t have time to research it.
However, he could control Chief Nika’s life and death through the Beast Taming Technique.
This was also his necessary means for bringing in followers from other races.
Otherwise, with his suspicious nature, it would be hard for him to trust the loyalty of others.
Only by having life and death in his hands could he feel at ease.
"Nika’s life is attributed to the master’s saving grace; everything will be arranged by the master."
Chief Nika showed no hesitation.
Long ago, he wanted to find a strong ally to rely on.
Unfortunately, there were no strong allies on the blood-colored planet for him to cling to.
Those large tribes were still raided from time to time, and their situation was precarious.
Even if he returned now and gathered the Nika tribe again, he would still face the possibility of being targeted by the Swift Tribe, or even retaliated against.
Yi Chen’s power, which defeated and eliminated everyone from the Swift Tribe, including King Ties, was exactly the super strong ally he had been dreaming of.
He had just thought about asking Yi Chen to take him back first and seizing the opportunity to get closer to him on the way, pleading for Yi Chen to accept him as a follower.
As a result, he didn’t know whether his bad luck had run out and fortune had turned.
After being captured for two years, he suddenly got rescued, and Yi Chen even willingly proposed the condition for him to pledge loyalty.
He would not miss this huge opportunity.
The Blood Pledge of Dominance, being controlled by someone else, wasn’t a pleasant experience, and there was a risk of being a pawn.
But wandering in the starry sky without returning to the blood-colored planet was just as dangerous, leading to a situation where he could easily lose his life.
Even if he returned to the Nika tribe and gathered his people again, he would have to live in constant fear of the Swift Tribe suddenly coming to investigate the matter of King Ties’ death.
It was far better to take the risk and cling to a strong ally.
Life and death are destined; wealth and nobility are in the hands of fate.
It might truly be a turning point in his fortune.
"Since that’s the case, do not resist!"
Yi Chen was equally decisive, lightly slicing his fingertip.
He activated the Beast Taming Technique, infusing his divine consciousness and immortal power into the blood, and let it drip onto Chief Nika.
Then, he used his divine consciousness to control this drop of blood, allowing it to seep into Chief Nika’s body, merging with his energy storage area.
With this, Yi Chen could at any moment summon the immortal power within the blood to instantly destroy Chief Nika’s energy storage area, similar to the Qi Sea.
"That’s it, one day will be enough to send you back. However, I have other matters to attend to, so for now, stick with me, and I will send you back to the blood-colored planet in a few months."
Yi Chen decided to wait until the teleportation array was created before sending Chief Nika and the others back.
With this, they could build another teleportation array on the blood-colored planet.
When the two teleportation arrays connected, the Great Flame Kingdom would be able to travel freely between the exile planet, Fengmang planet, and the blood-colored planet.
Two points connected, turning into three.
"Obey the master’s orders!"
Nika said respectfully.
"You all practice in the cabin first."
Yi Chen sat down nearby and sent his divine consciousness into the storage ring to begin testing the resource materials obtained from the cabin.
"Master…"
Nika hesitated to speak.
"Speak!"
Yi Chen motioned.
"It should not be far to Fengmang planet, and there are many Swift Tribe pirate ships coming and going. King Ties’ pirate ship is huge and conspicuous. Staying here for too long might attract unnecessary trouble… I think we should find a safer place."
Nika spoke cautiously.
"This suggestion is good, but do not mention it again. The decisions I make do not require questioning; just execute them."
Yi Chen said in a gentle tone while giving a domineering order.
"Yes!"
Nika felt a chill in his heart and quickly bowed and stepped back.
Yi Chen didn’t bother with him and continued to test various unfamiliar materials.
He knew that once he said this, Nika would see him as someone who acts independently and arrogantly.
But this was the attitude he had to show.
A big stick and sweet dates.
The Tree-Dwelling Tribe and the human federation wanted to use this method against him; he also wanted to use it to control the Nika tribe.
The difference was that he had an ambition and heart of a strong person that ordinary people could not understand. He needed allies and followers but would never accept any leader who could control him.
And Nika was more than happy to cling to a strong ally, willing to be a follower even if it meant his life was controlled.
To firmly hold onto the newly acquired follower, a mix of kindness and authority was undoubtedly the best method.
He needed to make Nika understand that he was not an easy person to deal with, even bordering on being fierce and ruthless.
Of course, he also had to let Nika know how generous he could be towards loyal and obedient followers.
After quickly testing all the resource materials, Yi Chen set aside the usable ones and removed the rest from the storage ring.
He sent a message to Nika with his divine consciousness: "Take these resource materials with you."
As he spoke, he tossed a Space Stone to him.
"Thank you for your gift, Master!"
Nika exclaimed with joy.
He immediately recognized that these resource materials were the ones King Ties had taken from their tribe.
Only a small amount of high-quality rare materials had been left behind by Yi Chen.
This was undoubtedly a tremendous surprise for him.
Because he had never considered the possibility that Yi Chen would give him these resource materials.
As they fought among themselves internally and faced the occasional raids from the Swift Tribe, no one understood the principle of survival of the fittest better than Nika.
These resource materials were originally obtained by the Nika tribe from some small tribes and fierce beasts for survival.
When the Swift Tribe stole them, they became the Swift Tribe’s resources.
Now that Yi Chen had taken them from the Swift Tribe, they naturally belonged to Yi Chen.
Whoever is strong claims them.
He hadn’t expected Yi Chen to give him these resources for free.
With these resources, upon returning to the Nika tribe, he could better gather his people.
But in his eyes, the most important thing was that Yi Chen was willing to give him so many resources even before any achievements.
This undoubtedly showed that this strong ally was not only generous but also powerful enough to not care about these resources.
Clinging tightly to this strong ally would surely lead to a bright future.
"What you got from King Ties, take that too."
Yi Chen quickly finished testing the resources in King Ties’ Space Stone, saved the lower quality immortal stones and useful materials, and tossed them along with the Space Stone to Nika.
Nika was nearly overjoyed.
No matter what happened in the future, at least for now, he was absolutely loyal to Yi Chen.
Even if it meant charging directly into the Swift Tribe on Fengmang planet to face death, he was willing to take the risk.
Yi Chen paid no more attention to Nika or the Black Tiger Tribe members.
He took out a mini Space Vessel from the storage ring and placed it directly in the cabin.
Activating the scanning system, he used the mini Space Vessel to monitor the surroundings.
Then, he began to research the skills that could extract memories from others.
