5960 A sudden fight
Lin Yi chuckled to himself. Who said this old scoundrel was impulsive and brainless? This was clearly an extremely shrewd old fox. He knew that making him owe him a favor was much more precious than a mere tens of millions of spiritual jades.
Maybe he bought the gold to get on Lin Yi’s good side. Dachang Lu probably knew which room Lin Yi was in, and knew that Lin Yi was interested in the gold after seeing him raise the price. He pretended to be a gangster and gave it to Lin Yi.
Otherwise, Dachang wouldn’t have given it away without even giving Lin Yi a chance to speak.
“If that’s the case, then I won’t be polite!” Lin Yi didn’t stand on ceremony with Dachang and kept the gold in his storage bag, giving his promise,”Old Lu, in the future, if you need to refine any medicinal pills, feel free to come to me. I can’t do it for free, but at least I can give you a discount.”
Dachang was overjoyed-he’d befriended Lin Yi for this promise! A Mystic class level two refiner didn’t just help you refine pills for free-sometimes, no matter how much you paid them, you might not even be able to get them to refine a pill.
“Hahahaha, Master Lin, you’re so forthright. I, old Lu, have the most straightforward personality. I’ll definitely trouble you in the future. If there’s anything that you need my help with, just ask, Master Lin. I won’t say anything else!” Dachang Lu thumped his chest loudly. The people who passed by looked at him strangely, but after being glared at by him, they immediately sped up and left.
Li Zeyu didn’t come to the auction today, probably because yesterday’s incident hadn’t come to an end yet, so he couldn’t attend to many things at once. Lin Yi decided to go find him alone to find out more about the progress.
Dachang Lu could tell that Lin Yi wasn’t in the mood to talk, so he left with xiaozhong.
Wei shenjin followed the old rules and sneaked off to find Shang Yuhua. Lin Yi brought LAN Guzha to the Li family’s mansion in the far north. If li Zeyu wasn’t there, he could have a chat with li zaixiang.
“Master Lin, I wonder if you’re here to look for the young master or the master?” The guard quickly greeted Lin Yi respectfully when he saw him-this was someone the two island Masters valued, who would dare to slight him?
“Is your Young Island master here?” Lin Yi asked casually. After all, he was more familiar with li Zeyu, and it would be best if he could find him.
The guard shook his head with a smile and gestured for him to enter.””The young Island master has left in the morning and hasn’t returned yet. Master Lin, why don’t you take a rest in the living room first? the young Island master will probably be back soon. Or should I go and inform the island master?”
Lin Yi and LAN Guzha waited in the living room for a while before li zaixiang came out.
“Hahaha, nephew Lin, why didn’t you come to see me these past two days? I’m still a patient, after all. Are you afraid that I’ll force you to refine pills?” Li zaixiang laughed heartily and made a joke before he came in.
“Uncle Li, you must be joking. If I could refine it, why would I need you to force me?” Lin Yi stood up and cupped his fists before introducing LAN Guzha.
Li zaixiang also greeted LAN Guzha warmly before he motioned for the two of them to sit down and talk.
“Nephew Lin, I’ve heard from my family’s stinky brat that you’ve been a great help to our Li family for the past two days. I won’t say any more polite words. Anyway, you and that brat are like brothers. In the future, the northernmost Island will be your home. I’ve already ordered people to clean up a small courtyard next to that brat’s residence. If you don’t mind, you can be his companion.” Li zaixiang smiled gently. He wasn’t trying to win Lin Yi over, but he really meant what he said.
Lin Yi was a little moved as well. He could feel that li zaixiang’s words didn’t have any intention of gaining anything from it. It was like an elder talking to a junior.
“Thank you for your love, uncle li. If I’m free, I’ll come visit you and brother li often.” Lin Yi smiled and cupped his fists in thanks. However, he was not destined to stay in one place for long, so he could only express his gratitude for li zaixiang’s invitation.
“Nephew Lin, you must have come here today because of what happened in the past two days, right? I wonder if there’s any new discovery?” After the small talk, li zaixiang went straight to the main topic. Although this matter was handled by li Zeyu, he, the island master, was also closely watching the development of the situation. He even had more information than li Zeyu.
Lin Yi thought to himself, I’m here to get some information, what new discovery?
“Uncle Li, I actually came to see how things are going on your side. Is there anything I can help you with?” Lin Yi told him the truth, but before li zaixiang could say anything, a loud explosion came from the center of the island, and strong shockwaves spread in all directions.
Li zaixiang and Lin Yi’s expressions changed at the same time. They sent out their spirit sense and found that the battle was not far from the auction house. The five cultivators involved were not weak. Two of them were at the early stage of mountain opening, and three of them were at the peak of the late stage of mysterious Ascension. If it weren’t for the defensive restrictions on the buildings on the northernmost Island, the area would have been razed to the ground by these five Guys.
“Preposterous! How dare you start a fight on my northernmost Island! Do you really think that our northernmost Island is a place where the Tiger Falls into the sun?” Li zaixiang stood up with a cold face and cupped his hands at Lin Yi,””Nephew Lin, it seems that I need to deal with this personally. Please sit for a while. I’ll be back soon, and then we can have a few drinks.”
“Uncle li, let’s go together. Although we don’t know what happened, we might have new clues.” Lin Yi was starting to get suspicious of the fight-how could people who came to the northernmost Island lack self-control? It was also because fighting was forbidden on the northernmost Island that those who had grudges with each other could safely participate in the auction on the island.
Now that there was an inexplicable fight, it was clear that something special had happened. Perhaps it was just a coincidence, but Lin Yi was more willing to believe that there was more to it.
LAN Guzha swallowed the pastry in his hand in one gulp and stood up with an excited expression. He thought to himself that there was finally a fight to be fought. There was someone he could beat up. He must not miss this great opportunity!
“Alright, nephew Lin, you guys can come after me. I’ll take my leave first!” Li zaixiang nodded and did not say anything else. His figure flickered and disappeared on the spot.
Lin Yi’s heart skipped a beat. He couldn’t tell li zaixiang’s strength, but that burst of aura just now was at least earth stage.
