With Nan Tianba's protective nature, if he could confirm that Kang Ming Ming was Lin Er, then he would not hesitate to kill Kang Ming Ming to avenge his third brother, Nan Tianyong. However, it was only a suspicion, and there was no concrete evidence. This matter was not easy to deal with.
One had to know that the agreement between them and Xu Lingchong was not made by the few of them alone. The fact that the two sides were able to shake hands and make peace was the result of the mutual compromise between the powers behind them. If they acted rashly, not only would they offend the other party, even the powers behind them would be dissatisfied.
They would offend both inside and outside. No matter how hot Nan Tianba's temper was, he would not do such a stupid thing.
Hearing this, Nan Tianba could only remain silent. He was currently at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm, and the temptation of the Star Ink Stone was greater than anyone else's. However, he was currently in a situation where he could not act even though he had his suspicions.
As he spoke, Nan Tianba had already led the way. The direction he was heading towards was where Ram Jie and Lin Yi were.
"Hallmaster Ram, long time no see." Walking forward, Nan Tianba took the initiative to greet Lin Yi. As for an insignificant person like Lin Yi, he was completely ignored.
Ram Jie raised his eyelids and glanced at him, "About the proposal from last time, have you thought about it?"
"This matter … I still need to think about it carefully …" Nan Tianba hesitated for a moment and glanced at Lin Yi, as if there was a secret that couldn't be revealed to outsiders. He immediately said in a harsh tone, "Who do you think you are? How dare you sit here and disturb the conversation between Hallmaster Ram and me. Hurry up and scram!"
Lin Yi immediately furrowed his eyebrows. Although Nan Tianba was strong, compared to Ram Jie, there was still a huge gap. Even Ram Jie wasn't this arrogant, so who did Nan Tianba think he was?
"I'm sorry, I don't have the habit of giving way to others. If you want to talk with Hallmaster Ram, why don't you consider changing the location? "Lin Yi raised his eyebrows and said calmly.
"Brat, what did you say?" Nan Tianba's temper immediately flared up.
As for Ram Jie, he was still lazily reclining on his chair, looking as if he had nothing to do with this matter.
"I'm not interested in repeating myself. If Your Excellency has a problem with your ears, I suggest that you find a doctor. You might be able to cure it." Lin Yi was still indifferent.
No matter how strong the other party was, as long as the other party provoked him, Lin Yi never knew how to retreat. When enemies meet on a narrow path, the courageous will win. A coward would never be able to stand at the pinnacle of experts.
"You are courting death!" These words were completely squeezed out from the gaps between Nan Tianba's teeth. He never thought that he would be provoked by such a weak ant in front of everyone.
Lin Yi's strength in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment couldn't be hidden from his eyes. In front of an aloof Gold Core stage expert like him, Lin Yi could only be regarded as a weakling.
As his voice fell, Nan Tianba's ferocious aura suddenly rose to the extreme, causing the audience to cry out in alarm. A Gold Core stage expert was no small matter. However, what was even more surprising was that there was still someone who dared to make a move on such an occasion.
"This is Miss Shangguan's birthday banquet. Before Your Excellency makes a move, it's best to think about the consequences first." Lin Yi calmly said.
If the other party was Ram Jie. Perhaps it was really possible for him to make a move here without any scruples. However, if it was someone else, even if it was a fierce character like Nan Tianba, they might not have the guts to do so.
Making a move here. It was equivalent to smashing Shangguan Laner's place. Even more so, it was equivalent to smashing Shangguan Tianhua's place. Not just anyone could have this kind of confidence. In front of a super big shot like Shangguan Tianhua, a Gold Core stage expert was just an ant.
Moreover, intuition told Lin Yi that Nan Tianba wasn't as hot-tempered and brainless as he looked on the surface. He wouldn't do something so stupid as to put himself in danger just to teach a small character like him a lesson.
Sure enough, Nan Tianba's aura suddenly stagnated. He coldly looked down at Lin Yi and said: "Brat, you have guts. What's your name?"
Without waiting for Lin Yi to speak, Southern Sky Gate and Yu Zhe had already moved forward and whispered a few words into his ear. Not only did they know Lin Yi's identity and name, they even told Lin Yi their previous test.
To be honest, seeing Lin Yi in a place like this, especially when Lin Yi was sitting so openly in front of Ram Jie, Southern Sky Gate and Yu Zhe couldn't react at all. Even if they recognized him at first glance, they still couldn't believe it. It wasn't until now that they could finally confirm that this guy was the newcomer from Blue Cloud Pavilion that they had suspected before.
"Heh, what kind of world is this? Even a mere newcomer from Blue Cloud Pavilion can sneak into this place. Or could it be that you simply took advantage of the fact that the guards were lax to sneak in?" Nan Tianba sneered as he listened to the whole story.
"I heard that for Miss Shangguan's birthday banquet this time, half of the guards are elites transferred from the Hall of Law Enforcement at the last minute. You're insulting their abilities in front of the Hall Master, isn't that appropriate?" Lin Yi's face was as calm as ever.
Nan Tianba's expression couldn't help but change. After hearing Lin Yi's words, he felt like he was indirectly scolding the locust tree.
At this moment, Yu Zhe, who was behind them, suddenly spoke up, "Eldest Martial Uncle, Second Martial Uncle, disciple's master died mysteriously. This Lin Yi is one of the suspects. Martial Uncles, please help disciple find out the truth and let master's soul rest in peace."
His sudden interruption was naturally to give Nan Tianba a way out. At the same time, it also didn't dispel their suspicions towards Lin Yi. Although their focus was currently on Kang Ming Ming, they didn't dare to act rashly because of Xu Lingchong. Now that Lin Yi, the second suspect, had bumped into the muzzle, they obviously couldn't let go of this opportunity.
Unknowingly, Yu Zhe had always felt that Lin Yi's temperament was very similar to Lin Er's. As a cultivator, his strong intuition was very accurate most of the time.
As soon as these words came out, Nan Tianba's eyes suddenly lit up. He secretly gave Yu Zhe a look of praise and immediately said righteously, "When Third Brother Nan Tianyong died, the higher-ups of the Three Great Pavilions clearly stated that they would investigate this matter. However, there hasn't been any progress. Taking advantage of today's opportunity, Hall Master Gong Yang might as well investigate this Lin Yi. With your ability, if you want to find out anything, it should be very simple.
