"My strength … isn't as strong as Xiaoxiao's." Mengyao smiled, "How did you get here so fast? I thought you'd have to wait. "
"How could I not come when you're in trouble?" Lin Yi said, "Don't worry about Jianwen, leave it to me. It's not a big deal."
"Grand Elder's injured …" Mengyao sighed, "She's injured now, and won't be able to recover in a short period of time. She won't have the chance to step into Sky class late phase peak, it's a loss to the palace …"
"Haha, Yao Yao, you don't need to say anything, I understand what you mean," Lin Yi smiled, "That old woman deserves it, she's so snobbish! But, you're the Palace Master of the Dark Palace, I'll still help. "
"En, thank you." Mengyao knew that Lin Yi had an opinion of Grand Elder, but she was the Palace Master now, and naturally, she couldn't consider her own feelings. She had to look at the bigger picture, and she was responsible for the rise and fall of the Dark Palace, "Grand Elder may be a bit snobbish, but her feelings for the Dark Palace are unparalleled."
"I know that, otherwise I wouldn't have helped," Lin Yi said, "When this is over, I'll help her heal! I actually want to raise your strength to Earth class late phase peak, but I'm afraid that it'll affect your own training! "
"En, I don't need it. I'm already very fast with my own training," Mengyao didn't really mind, "But, I don't know if those people will come today? Lin Yi, are you sure? "
"Don't worry." Lin Yi smiled, "If I wasn't sure, I'd just bring you guys back to Weststar Village."
"That's true!" Mengyao couldn't help but smile.
"As for whether they'll come today, I'm sure they will." Lin Yi said with certainty.
"Why? How do you know? "Mengyao paused.
"There's a mole in your Palace of Darkness," Lin Yi said.
"A mole?" Mengyao's face changed. But then he remembered something, "Zhao Qibing?"
"That's right, that's him." Lin Yi nodded. "It seems that Yaoyao's position as Palace Mistress wasn't picked up for nothing. She is still very powerful."
Mengyao's face reddened at Lin Yi's words. She hmphed. "You think I really don't know anything?!"
"Hehe, yeah, he can even manage me, what's the big deal about managing the Palace of Darkness?" Lin Yi laughed.
Mengyao was a little shy. He ignored the topic of Lin Yi and changed the topic. "Zhao Qibing, this kid sure has guts. It seems like my punishment was too light."
"Don't touch him for now. It won't be too late to deal with him after this matter is over." Lin Yi waved his hand.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Mengyao and Lin Yi walked towards the guest room. At this time, the Grand Elder got the news of Lin Yi's arrival!
Although Mengyao had full control of the Palace of Darkness, that wasn't the case. These people had betrayed the Grand Elder! The moment Lin Yi came, the other elders went to inform the Grand Elder!
In the eyes of these disciples, the Grand Elder was always behind closed doors, but these Elders could still go and look for the Grand Elder.
"Elder Su. You're saying that Lin Yi came with his head up high, without any worry or helplessness? "The Grand Elder heard Elder Su's report. It was strange. She didn't think highly of Lin Yi, and Lin Yi didn't show his face before. This time, he showed up as soon as Mengyao called him. What did this mean?
Was he really confident, or was he just acting for the sake of his woman? That arrogance was just to scare off the robbers? From the Grand Elder's perspective, Lin Yi shouldn't be that strong. If Lin Yi really was strong, why would he be chased by the overseas practitioners?
Plus, it'd been so long since the chase, why was he still hiding and not showing his face? If Lin Yi was really that strong, why would he need to hide? So the Grand Elder felt that it was the latter!
Lin Yi was an impulsive person for a woman- this made the Grand Elder look down on Lin Yi even more. She hmphed and shook her head. "Does he really think that acting can scare off those people? How naive! In the past, when the people killed by the Blood Clothed Underworld Sect all misunderstood you, you might be able to scare them off. But now, who would believe you?! Ah, Yaoyao, you're still too young. You're easily blinded by love, just like Ye Wan 'er back then! "
"Then … Grand Elder, what should we do now?" Elder Su smiled bitterly. If it was Ye Wan 'er in the past, he'd still talk behind her back, but now that it was Mengyao, he didn't dare say anything. He could only ask carefully and awkwardly.
"Forget it, when those people come again, I'll talk to them. If it really doesn't work, we'll just give them the Palace of Darkness first and I'll think of something. As long as there's life, there's hope. I'll talk to Yaoyao, after seeing that Lin Yi isn't reliable, she'll be disappointed. I'll talk to her again and let her marry into the Sky Elixir Sect. With the Sky Elixir Sect backing us up, these people will have to leave the same way they came in!" The Grand Elder said helplessly.
"Grand Elder, you're really thoughtful!" Elder Su quickly said.
The Grand Elder waved his hand. "Forget it, this is a good thing. Let Yaoyao understand that those practitioners aren't reliable at all."
But just as the two were talking, a disciple came running over, panting. This disciple was Elder Su's confidante, so he came here first instead of looking for Mengyao!
Every elder had their own confidante disciple, their personal disciple. On the surface, these disciples were under Mengyao's management, but they only listened to Mengyao in general. If you really thought about it, they were still the best with their own master.
But there was nothing she could do about it. Every sect was like that, and Mengyao couldn't change that. As long as they didn't cause trouble, Mengyao wouldn't care about them. After all, there weren't many direct disciples like that, and an elder would only have one or two. The rest were just normal disciples.
