Mengyao was probably Lin Yi's concubine now that Yushu was calling Mengyao sis. He didn't dare offend her, and could only ask meekly.
"Who are you? Why are you here to see Lin Yi? " Mengyao blushed, but didn't refute. She didn't even know this guy, so there was no need to explain so much to him!
Yushu, on the other hand, froze when she heard the way Mengyao addressed her. She realized that she'd misunderstood something. Mengyao was here for Lin Yi, not for her! Yushu subconsciously thought that Mengyao was here for her, and even said that they'd get to know each other better. That was why Yushu reacted so strongly.
Now that she heard Mengyao call her sister-in-law, she was very happy. "Oh, at least you know your place. I'm Shield Bro's concubine!"
"Shield Bro?" Mengyao paused. He didn't know who Yushu was talking about, but he channeled his practitioner's arts and evaporated the water on his body. He was a fire practitioner, so it was easy for him to do that.
"You're … a practitioner?" Mengyao was surprised, but she turned to Shu. "Why did you say that Lin Yi wasn't here?"
"Oh … Oh … That's because he's looking for Lin Yi or Lin Bro. There's only Lin Yi Shield Bro here, no Lin Yi or Lin Bro. That's why Shu chased him away!" Yushu explained.
"......" Mengyao clearly felt that Yushu was talking nonsense, but she couldn't ask in front of outsiders. She explained to Mengyao. "Shu just calls Lin Yi Shield Bro, there might be a misunderstanding."
"I'm Mengyao, the young master of the Southern Suburbs' Flaming Mountain sect. I'm here to visit Brother Lin, could you two please introduce me to him?" Even though Flaming Cloud was puzzled by Shu's reaction, he finally understood what was going on and quickly explained.
"Fiery Mountain's Fiery Cloud?" Mengyao nodded. She'd never heard of this sect before, but it was clear that this guy wasn't hostile. If he was, he wouldn't be talking to her so nicely if Yushu had splashed water all over him. "Lin Yi's out on some business, he's not back yet. Is there something you need from him?"
"It's like this, our Fiery Mountain sect has a deep grudge with Zhang Naipao of the Everyday and Every Day Sect. Have you guys heard of him?" Huo Hongyun asked.
"Zhang Naipao?" Mengyao blinked. "He's a classmate of mine, Shu, and Lin Yi …"
"Uh … you're all classmates …" Huo Shou was momentarily stunned, his expression changing slightly. "Could it be that you're also disciples of the Everyday and Every Day Sect?"
"How could we be disciples of the Everyday and Every Day Sect?" Mengyao paused as well, not understanding what was going on.
"So you're saying that Naipao is your classmate?" Huo Hongyun didn't think it was possible. If Lin Yi and Naipao were from the same sect, then he wouldn't have done anything to Naipao! He came from an ancient sect, so he wasn't too clear on the concept of classmates. He thought that they were from the same sect, but now that he thought about it, he understood. "Could it be that you and Naipao are classmates from the common world?"
"Yeah, we're high school classmates." Mengyao nodded.
"High school?" Huo Hongyun paused once more. He didn't know about Naipao's discipleship, and with how strong Naipao was, he thought that Naipao was a core disciple of the Everyday and Every Day Sect since he was young. But Mengyao said that they were high school classmates, and Mengyao didn't seem that old. Didn't that mean that Naipao had only been in the Everyday and Every Day Sect for a while? He quickly asked. "Then may I ask, what year are you guys in?"
"First year of university, why?" Mengyao felt that Huo Hongyun's question was a little strange.
"Then … So you're saying that Naipao has been in the Everyday and Every Day Sect for three years at most?" Huo Hongyun was in disbelief- Naipao had gotten this strong in such a short time- was it because the Everyday and Every Day Sect was too strong, or was Naipao's talent too overpowered?
"Less than a year." Mengyao shook her head. "His strength is indeed quite fast, even a little faster than Lin Yi. At first, Lin Yi was a Golden class, and Naipao was just a normal person, but now, both of them are Sky class early phase …"
"Pfft … Cough cough cough …" Mengyao's words made Huo Hongyun cough non-stop! He could admit that Naipao was fast, after all, the Everyday and Every Day Sect was one of the strongest sects in the ancient times. But Lin Yi was a freelancer, and yet he'd gone from Golden class to Sky class in less than a year! What kind of concept was that?!
One had to know that it was extremely difficult for a freelancer to break through, especially when Lin Yi was still so young. This was something that Huo Hongyun couldn't imagine! How was this Naipao faster than Lin Yi? It was Lin Yi who knew how many times faster than Naipao!
How could a freelancer and a sect disciple be compared? And … Huo Hongyun suddenly realized that Lin Yi was still an Earth class late phase before, wasn't he? He'd been able to beat Naipao in the test as an Earth class late phase, but how long had it been? And now Lin Yi had stepped into Sky class early phase? Didn't that make him even stronger?
As far as Huo Hongyun was concerned, Lin Yi's Sky class early phase was a lot stronger than Naipao's. If Naipao was still Sky class early phase, then Lin Yi would be able to beat him.
"What's wrong?" Mengyao looked at Huo Hongyun, surprised. Actually, Mengyao had pointed out Lin Yi's strength because she didn't trust him. She'd brought out Lin Yi's strength so that Huo Hongyun wouldn't dare act recklessly if he really had ulterior motives.
"It's nothing … Brother Lin is strong indeed. May I ask when he'll be back?" Huo Hongyun asked.
"That's hard to say- if you want to find him, you can come here often." Mengyao said.
"Then … Can I stay here and wait for Brother Lin to come back?" Huo Hongyun asked. His way of thinking was that of the jianghu. As far as he was concerned, visiting someone and staying in someone else's house was very normal. After all, many ancient sects were deep in the mountains and forests, and there were very few who had inns. Most of them stayed in other sects' houses.
"That's … not really convenient. We're not that familiar with each other anyway." Mengyao rejected his request.
