A smile appeared on Lin Yi’s face, “Oh, you know me.”
Among the Inner Sect Disciples, many should have heard his name, but those who have seen him in person are quite rare, apart from the Golden Sword Lineage, the others from the Golden Core Lineage knew little about his appearance.
“Rec, recognize… The junior uncle master of the Golden Sword Lineage, the outstanding disciple among the Outer Sect Spirit Farmers, everyone in the Inner Sect knows, everyone knows.” This middle-aged man was sweating from his forehead, clenching his fist, and dared not put it down.
His relationship with this cousin was not particularly close. After Lin Yi became a Direct Disciple, this cousin had been giving offerings, giving him some Spirit Stones to help keep an eye on Lin Yi’s movements.
Just after Lin Yi became a Direct Disciple, the incident of the merchant named
Liu’s family getting engulfed in flames happened.
So, he undoubtedly knew Lin Yi’s features thoroughly.
“Unc, Uncle Master Lin, this issue today was a misunderstanding. This small token doesn’t represent much, I hope uncle accepts it.” Seeing Lin Yi not saying anything, just smiling and looking at him, the middle-aged man didn’t hesitate to pull out a Storage Bag and respectfully placed it on the table.
He is now just a disciple from the Hua Yang Lineage who had reached the complete ninth stage of Qi Refining in the Inner Sect, while Lin Yi is the Direct Disciple of Gold Sword Zen Ren, a Foundation Building cultivator.
The gap in their identity and cultivation levels were as vast as heaven and earth. If Lin Yi is bullied, Gold Sword Zen Ren will definitely take action, while if he’s bullied, Hua Yang Zhen Ren won’t intervene on his behalf.
He didn’t expect that Lin Yi was the prime investigator for this matter, if he had known earlier, he would not have come even if he were beaten to death.
Lin Yi’s gaze didn’t waver as he said indifferently: “Why didn’t Feng Yu Cheng come? I guess he must be engaged in some shady activities. I’ll give you a chance, immediately reveal his whereabouts, perhaps I’ll consider requesting the Law Enforcement Hall to show leniency.”
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man almost didn’t hesitate, he opened his mouth and said directly: “Uncle Master Lin, upon hearing someone is investigating the matter, Feng Yu Cheng, three days prior, went to Jade Peak City. That Miss Liu, she’s still alive, she’s been imprisoned by him.”
Since Lin Yi, the direct disciple of Gold Sword Zen Ren, is already involved in this matter, there is no advantage in playing dumb anymore, he can only opt to sacrifice his cousin for his own safety.
Maybe Lin Yi, who had just built his foundation a short time ago, did not have the ability to mobilize the Law Enforcement Hall.
However, the problem is that he is the most beloved junior brother among all his senior brothers and sisters in the Golden Sword Lineage. He brought back precious spiritual grass from the Secret Realm that could help Senior Brother Zhou Yun Feng mend his foundation.
Zhou Yun Feng, the eldest brother from the Golden Sword Lineage, had the ability to mobilize the Law Enforcement Hall.
“He really deserved to die.” Lin Yi said in a somber tone. If he had directly killed Liu Fu Shang’s family, it would just be a normal way to eliminate potential threats.
However, this guy took an even more cruel approach by leading Liu Qiao Ling on and continued to imprison and persecute her. It wasn’t just abnormal anymore, it was utterly inhumane.
He took out a Sound Transmission Talisman and after activating it, he briefly explained the matter and then casually threw it away.
Even if this Feng Yu Cheng’s cultivation is just at the seventh level of Qi refinement, he wouldn’t foolishly go alone, who knows if it’s a trap.p>
“Uncle Master Lin, can we step out first?” Seeing Lin Yi activate a Sound Transmission Talisman, the middle-aged man said uneasily.
Lin Yi must have contacted his eldest Senior Brother Zhou Yun Feng from the Golden Sword Lineage. There was a high chance that this teahouse would soon be surrounded by disciples from the Golden Sword Lineage.
“You can do as you please, but when your cousin exposes you, you won’t be able to escape the Law Enforcement Hall’s capture,” Lin Yi said indifferently.
The middle-aged man’s face changed, he dared not leave the room. If he stayed here, he could be acknowledged as having provided crucial information. If he left, he was certain that his cousin, Feng Yu Cheng, would inform them about him, and then he would lose any merits he had.
He deeply fist saluted Lin Yi and pleaded, “Uncle Master Lin, I ask you to clarify my part in informing the Law Enforcement Hall about Feng Yucheng’s location.”
Less than half an hour later, there were surprised cries and sounds of paying respects to the Foundation Building cultivators and uncle masters from outside.
Soon, several people entered the room, leading them was the Senior Brother Zhou Yun Feng of the Golden Sword Lineage. Looking at the gate that had been kicked and sent flying, he first asked with concern, “Junior Brother, are you alright?”
“Senior Brother, I am a Foundation Building Cultivator after all, I’m not so fragile that I’d break from a single touch.” Lin Yi joked.
Li Yuan Qing, with a cold expression, said, “Junior Brother, I heard from Senior Brother that someone stole your credit and even married a girl because of it, tormenting her day and night. How can you bear such monstrous actions that taint your honor?”
“Give me his location, I will bring back his corpse. As for the people in this room, are they his accomplices? Might as well wipe them out now.” As he spoke, an aura of murderous intent emanated from him, causing an involuntary tightening of the hearts of those present.
Lin Yi brought back invaluable spiritual grass, instrumental in mending Senior Brother’s foundation. He would do anything to express his gratitude to Lin Yi.
Hearing Li Yuan Qing’s words, the middle-aged man’s face drastically changed, and the other Qi Refining disciples at the middle stage were scared to tears.
“Brother Li, these people have made some contributions. Let’s not hurry to kill them.” Lin Yi said with a smile.
Zhou Yun Feng waved his hand and smiled, “Yuan Qing, don’t be hasty. Junior Brother, I have already reported this matter to the Law Enforcement Hall. Hall
Master Qi, upon hearing this, also wants to go with us.”
With these words, a middle-aged man with a serious face walked out from behind him, it was Qi Chun Shan, “Junior Brother Lin, I have heard the situation from Brother Zhou, why don’t you wait here? I will personally arrest
Feng Yu Cheng.”
Seeing the familiar faces before him, he couldn’t help but be filled with emotions. The first time he met Lin Yi was because of the Spiritual Field Manager – Zhang Yuan Cheng’s murder.
At that time, he was led by Li Yuan Qing. Who would have thought that this Outer Sect Spirit Farmer would later become an Inner Sect Disciple and also the direct disciple of Gold Sword Zen Ren.
To this day, he had broken through the realm and became a Foundation Building cultivator. It was truly an unimaginable feat.
He wasn’t from the Golden Sword Lineage, but from the Sect Master Green Jade Zen Ren Lineage, and had been in charge of the Sect’s Law Enforcement Hall for several decades. However, like Lin Yi, it was extremely rare to see someone rise so high in such a short period.
“Greetings, Brother Qi. Let’s go together. Since this incident started because of me, how can I just sit here and wait?” Lin Yi shook his head. He hadn’t expected Feng Yu Cheng to be so despicable as to take credit for his deeds in Qing Shi City.
At this moment, Zhou Yun Feng spoke up, “Then let’s all go together. Qi
Refining Disciples should return to the Sect.”
Feng Yu Cheng had set off for Jade Peak City three days ago. Even at the speed of a Flying Boat, it would take at least five days to get there.
Only they, as Foundation Building Cultivators could catch up rapidly by sword flight, and even potentially reach there ahead of time.
“Alright, you will take them back and keep a close watch.” Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, Qi Chun Shan nodded, pointing at the middle-aged man and others. He then took out spiritual power-locking shackles from his Storage Bag and put them on their wrists.
“Hall Master Qi, we’re innocent! Junior Uncle Master Lin, didn’t you say that you would plead for us?” The middle-aged man exclaimed as he looked at the shackles on his wrist.
“I will explain to Hall Master Qi about your help in providing information on Feng Yu Cheng’s whereabouts.” Lin Yi replied indifferently, then turned to Xu
Zhi Wu and said, “Brother Xu, you should return first.”
Lin Yi and Zhou Yun Feng then left Qing Yun City. They each took out their Flying Swords and rose into the sky, attracting the attention of all cultivators and martial artists around. Such a gathering of Foundation Building cultivators was a rare sight in Qing Yun City.
The sword Lin Yi wielded was naturally the top-quality Wind Thunder Sword bestowed by his Master, the Golden Sword Zen Ren. Lin Yi had not exposed the power of the Wind Thunder Sword, so it appeared to be just a beautiful Flying Sword.
Qi Chun Shan looked at the sword with admiration. A top-quality Flying Sword with dual properties of wind and thunder was every Foundation Building cultivator’s dream.
Zhou Yun Feng enlarged his sword slightly and said to Lin Yi with a smile, “Junior Brother, why not stand on my sword? You have only just recently reached Foundation Establishment. You might not be very skilled yet.”
“No need, Senior Brother. I have been practicing the Sword Control Technique for a year now and have made some progress. Even if I can’t keep up with your speed, I won’t be too far behind.” Lin Yi shook his head, standing on the same sword with another person felt a tad awkward.
