"Hmph! I've put down my pride and tried to be nice to you. Since you don't know what's good for you, don't blame me for being rude! I forgot to tell you that in my heart, if you can't be my friend, then you're my enemy. I won't let any of my enemies live so leisurely! "Murong Zhen sneered.
This time, she was really angry out of humiliation. The aura of an expert at the peak of the early stage of the Foundation Building Realm poured out of her body without reservation and pressed down on Lin Yi's head.
No matter how weak she pretended to be, she was still an expert at the peak of the early stage of the Foundation Building Realm. To her, dealing with Lin Yi, who was merely an expert at the early stage of the Foundation Building Realm, was a piece of cake.
Women were not to be trifled with. A woman like her, who was not broad-minded but was not weak, was even more so!
"I'll ask you one last time. Are you going to be my friend or my enemy? Think carefully before you answer this question. Otherwise, you'll regret it. I promise! "Murong Zhen said coldly.
"Hehe, seduction didn't work, so you're trying to threaten me? This is only her first day in the Welcome Pavilion, but she can't wait to build her own force. This woman seems to be plotting something big! "Lin Yi couldn't help but laugh in his heart when he saw this. However, his face remained indifferent.
Under the pressure of Murong Zhen's aura, Lin Yi paused for a moment. Then, he replied with a normal expression, "Miss Murong, well water doesn't interfere with river water. I have no intention of being your enemy. However, if you insist on doing this, then I'll have to reluctantly do it."
"Hey! Reluctantly do it? You're just an early stage of the Foundation Building Realm from the secular world. Do you have the right to say such things in front of me? You're too arrogant! "Murong Zhen was about to attack him angrily.
If he wasn't a friend, then he was an enemy. There was no third possibility!
As for what Lin Yi said about not interfering with each other's business, in Murong Zhen's eyes, it was a load of bullshit. If she wanted to take revenge on Shangguan Lan 'er, she needed to accumulate strength and influence at all costs. There were only a few people who had the potential to be her cannon fodder.
Among these people, people like Meng Tong were Meng Jueguang's direct subordinates, and Meng Jueguang was Xu Lingchong's man. She, Murong Zhen, had no way of contending against them in a short period of time. In other words, even if she lowered her status and took the initiative to seduce them, it would still be impossible for her to make Meng Tong and the others truly loyal to her. At most, she could make use of them behind Young Master Xu's back.
But Lin Yi and the others were different. They were real grassroots. Murong Zhen did not have any powerful background or backing. As long as she played some tricks, it was very possible for her to make these people worship her.
If he wanted to subdue Lin Yi and his gang, the most crucial step was naturally to subdue Lin Yi. To catch a thief, one must first capture the leader. As long as he could subdue Lin Yi, his subordinates, Xiao Ran and Qiao Hongcai, would naturally be easy to deal with.
Moreover, from Murong Zhen's point of view … Lin Yi was indeed the most capable and had the most potential among all the newcomers. After subduing him, if there were any opportunities in the future … Perhaps he could really become a top figure.
Therefore, subduing Lin Yi was a must for Murong Zhen. Even though she was treated coldly during the day, now that it was night time, she still lowered her status and took the initiative to seduce him. She decided to lower herself to seduce Lin Yi. If necessary, she wouldn't mind giving Lin Yi a taste of sweetness. After all, Murong Zhen had always been very confident in herself.
Her plan was perfect, but unfortunately, everything had already become fleeting. Since seducing him did not work, she could only change her way of thinking. If the soft approach did not work, she would use the hard approach. She would use her strength to force Lin Yi to yield.
In the cultivation world, the strong had always been respected. She believed that Lin Yi would fall for that too.
Just as Murong Zhen was about to use her strength to subdue Lin Yi, Lin Yi suddenly spoke, "Is this really okay? If you fight without reporting it, you will be severely punished in the Welcome Pavilion. Lady Murong, aren't you afraid that someone will kick you when you're down? "
As he spoke, Lin Yi's expression was calm as usual. He did not seem to be flustered at all. It seemed like he was merely giving a casual reminder. If Murong Zhen insisted on not listening to him, he would not mind playing along with her until the end.
Hearing that, Murong Zhen's aura froze. She could not help but shiver when she regained her senses.
Just as Lin Yi had said, her current situation was not good!
Originally, she could have become a member of the inner circle of the Soaring Sky Pavilion's second generation, but now, she was suddenly knocked down to the ground, becoming a lowly Clear Cloud Pavilion newcomer without any status. If she committed any crime at this time, she believed that those who banished her to the Clear Cloud Pavilion, in order to curry favor with Shangguan Lan 'er and Xu Lingchong, would not mind stepping on her again, adding insult to injury!
If that happened, Murong Zhen might be blacklisted by Welcome Pavilion. When that time comes, she might not even be able to enter Blue Cloud Pavilion. She would be completely cut off from the Three Great Pavilions. That would be a real tragedy. She would never have the chance to turn the tables in her life!
Thinking of this, Murong Zhen quickly withdrew her aura and glared at Lin Yi. It was all because of this arrogant and despicable bastard that I almost made a huge mistake!
"Just you wait, this beauty. You'll regret it!" Murong Zhen said with a face full of hatred. She then turned around and left. Her seduction did not work, and she could not threaten him with force. If she continued to stay here, she would only be asking for trouble.
Looking at Murong Zhen's enchanting figure, Lin Yi took a deep breath. This is ridiculous. She failed to seduce me, and now she's threatening me? If it weren't for Lin Yi killing her now, it would be too troublesome. Otherwise, she would be dead by now!
Lin Yi didn't want to expose his strength before the Southern Sky Gate's matter was settled, but the girl was already in his blacklist.
Although there might be trouble in the future, there was nothing he could do now that things had come to this. This woman was not a good person anyway. So be it. Lin Yi had enemies all over the place. One more wouldn't make a difference.
What Lin Yi did not know was that even if he did not offend Murong Zhen today, he would still end up on the opposite side of Murong Zhen and Shangguan Laner in the future. What he did now was to clarify the relationship between him and her.
However, it did not matter. He would deal with the situation as it came. Lin Yi shook his head and smiled. He then entered the space inside the jade pendant and continued to cultivate as if nothing had happened.
Taking advantage of the fact that the Heart-Devouring Exquisite Herb's seedling had yet to mature, Lin Yi needed to stabilize his cultivation base at the peak of the early stage of the Foundation Building Realm. He also needed to strengthen his foundation as much as possible in preparation for his breakthrough.
