No matter how much a trash like Meng Tong leveled up, he wouldn't be a threat to Lin Yi. However, he had to think about his underlings! If they were caught off guard and lost one of Xiao Ran and Qiao Hongcai, the loss would be unacceptable.
"Boss Lin, you're being too serious. This is all part of my responsibility- I don't deserve your thanks!" Li Zhengming was moved.
As expected, comparisons were odious. Both of them were new bosses, but when comparing Lin Yi to Meng Jueguang and Meng Tong, the difference between them was like heaven and earth!
"You deserve it. If it weren't for your information, something might have happened to them. So, you don't have to be humble. I'll remember your contributions." Lin Yi smiled and patted Li Zhengming.
Li Zhengming was touched. Then, he blushed and said, "It's a pity that I didn't dare to continue probing with Meng Tong. Otherwise, with Meng Tong's arrogant and stupid behavior, it wouldn't be difficult to get the specific plan out of his mouth."
"It's fine. It's right that you didn't continue probing with him. Otherwise, with a sly old fox like Meng Jueguang watching from the side, it would be easy for him to see something fishy. There's no need to lose the big picture because of small things. After all, safety comes first." Lin Yi comforted him. Then, he added, "Moreover, your information is enough for me."
Lin Yi wasn't being arrogant. He was speaking the truth. He suddenly remembered that when Xu Lingchong and Meng Jueguang were discussing in private, Miss Shangguan was present the whole time.
Whether it was Xu Lingchong or Meng Jueguang, they were consciously avoiding the eyes and ears of others. Even their underlings like Li Zhengming were not allowed to get close to them. However, they couldn't criticize Miss Shangguan.
Shangguan Lan'er's status was even higher than Xu Lingchong's. In addition, she deliberately pretended to be at loggerheads with Lin Yi. Whenever she wanted to hear something, she wouldn't hesitate. Xu Lingchong and Meng Jueguang couldn't wait to please her. Why would they stop her?
So, even if he couldn't find out the specific content of the plan from Li Zhengming, since he was already aware of this, Lin Yi could find a suitable opportunity to ask Miss Shangguan about it.
After saying that, Lin Yi suddenly slapped his forehead. "Right, I've got nothing to do these two days, so I'm planning to start refining pills. Zhengming, you can go back and adjust yourself a bit. I'll give you two foundation pills when the time comes. Then I can start preparing to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm. "
As soon as Lin Yi said this, Li Zhengming was stunned for a moment. Then, he couldn't help but feel a lump in his throat, and he almost cried.
The reason why he had personally come to look for Lin Yi today, apart from providing him with information, was mainly because of the matter regarding the Foundation Establishment Pills.
Li Zhengming didn't really want to ask Lin Yi because he didn't feel like he had done much, but to him, breaking through to foundation building was the most important thing right now. Otherwise, if this continued, they would fall behind others, and in the future, they would not be able to compete.
Previously, he had been rebuffed by Meng Jueguang. Now that he had turned to Lin Yi, the real boss, for help, Li Zhengming had no choice but to do so.
This could be determined from the fact that Qiao Hongcai and Xiao Ran both succeeded in breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Realm. The Foundation Establishment Pill that Lin Yi had received as a reward from the Back Mountain Trial should have already been given to Qiao Hongcai, and as a newcomer, it was basically impossible for him to have a second Foundation Establishment Pill on hand.
But now, Li Zhengming wasn't looking for Lin Yi to ask for a Foundation Establishment Pill, but he wanted to ask Lin Yi to help him refine a Foundation Establishment Pill. After all, he had just received three sets of ingredients for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill from Meng Jueguang, and Lin Yi had long been an alchemist in the secular world. This was already an open secret.
But even if Lin Yi was an alchemist, he might not have the ability to refine a Foundation Establishment Pill. He might not necessarily have the ability to refine a Foundation Establishment Pill, but now, Li Zhengming had no other choice but to look for Lin Yi to try his luck.
However, what Li Zhengming didn't expect was that before he could even think of how to ask, Lin Yi had already taken the initiative to bring it up. Moreover, from the beginning to the end, Lin Yi didn't make any additional requests. It was purely for the sake of helping him break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm!
On one side was Meng Jueguang's deceit, on the other side was Lin Yi's righteousness. With such a sharp contrast, if Li Zhengming still didn't shed tears, then he would really be said to be heartless.
Only when there was a contrast would there be a difference in superiority and inferiority. Compared to Lin Yi, Meng Jueguang, this time, in Li Zhengming's heart, it was as if he had been trampled into a cave. There was no comparison at all.
"Boss Lin Yi, actually, the reason I came to find you today, other than to report the information, is to ask you to help me refine the Foundation Establishment Pill." Li Zhengming rubbed his nose and suppressed his emotions. Then, he took out the three sets of ingredients that Meng Jueguang had given him and handed them to Lin Yi.
"Oh? You've even prepared the ingredients for the Foundation Establishment Pill? That's not bad, it saves me the trouble of making a trip out. "Seeing this, Lin Yi's eyes lit up.
Although the ingredients for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill were common goods that could be bought in the market square, Lin Yi didn't have enough on hand. After all, even if he had the intention to prepare his own Spirit Medicine Storehouse, it had only been a short period of time and was far from enough. If Li Zhengming didn't take them out, he would have to make a trip to the market square for a few of the Spirit Medicine Storehouses.
During the day, he had used his first impression to trick Yu Zhe so that he wouldn't connect the two identities of Lin Yi and Lin Er together. However, even if he used his toes to think, he would know that Yu Zhe and his master, Nan Tianyong, would definitely stay in the market square and continue to investigate. If they didn't dig out Lin Er, they absolutely wouldn't give up.
Therefore, if Lin Yi went to the market square with the identity of Lin Er, it would be quite risky. If he wasn't careful, he could be blocked by Yu Zhe and Nan Tianyong. Although Lin Yi didn't need to be afraid of Yu Zhe, the other side still had Nan Tianyong. A guy who was able to sit in the position of Supervising Deacon of Soaring Sky Pavilion, his strength could be imagined. He was definitely not a small matter.
Once he was blocked by these two people, with Lin Yi's current strength at the peak of the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage, he would definitely be in danger.
However, if he didn't use the identity of Lin Yi and instead used Lin Yi's original appearance to go to the market square, it would be even easier for people to be suspicious. After all, the good jade that Lin Yi had in his possession had already been exchanged for useless jade. If he were to buy anything in the market square, once it was seen by someone with ulterior motives, it was very likely that it would cause Meng Jueguang and the others to become suspicious. That would be somewhat bad.
