As for the other newcomers present, with their mere Foundation Establishment Stage strength, standing here was simply like a small boat in a monstrous wave, swaying unsteadily, with the possibility of capsizing at any time.
This was still Xu Lingchong and Lin Yi, both focusing their attention on each other. Otherwise, if they were to switch targets, these ordinary newcomers would probably be directly crushed by the imposing manner.
People only need to look at you once, and you will fall to the ground by yourself. They were all newcomers, but this was the difference between them and Lin Yi!
Both sides confronted each other, and for a moment, the entire Welcoming Pavilion seemed to have the momentum of a coming storm. Perhaps the weather was just a coincidence, but at this moment, everyone's heart already felt a heavy pressure, especially to the surrounding ordinary newcomers, it was like the deja vu of mortals suffering in a battle between immortals.
However, although the imposing manner of both sides confronted each other tensely, regardless of whether it was Xu Lingchong or Lin Yi, neither of them had the intention to make a move. Lin Yi needn't be mentioned, and although Xu Lingchong wanted to kill Lin Yi, he couldn't attack Lin Yi without a reason, or else he would be arrested by the Law Enforcement Hall and punished in public.
"Lin Yi, this young master heard that you seem to be very arrogant recently?" Xu Lingchong suddenly curled his lips and smiled coldly.
"Hehe, Senior Xu, you flatter me. I'm just living my life, but I can't stand some people who don't have eyes. They always send themselves to be abused, so I can only reluctantly do it," Lin Yi replied indifferently.
"Very good, since you are already a Golden Core Initial Stage expert, it is rare for a newcomer to have such a performance, it is worthy of praise!" Xu Lingchong didn't seem to hear the mockery in Lin Yi's words, and instead suggested, "This young master can make the decision to make an exception and recruit you as an official disciple of the Soaring Sky Pavilion, are you willing?"
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding people immediately went into an uproar. The Soaring Sky Pavilion was the most powerful among the three pavilions, this was without a doubt, and regardless of resources or status, it was a lot higher than the other two pavilions. Under normal circumstances, any Profound Secrets Pavilion or Clear Cloud Pavilion disciple who had the chance to join the Soaring Sky Pavilion was a dream come true.
Xu Lingchong, as the Eldest Senior Brother in charge of the Soaring Sky Pavilion and the grandson of the Third Elder of the Soaring Sky Pavilion, Xu Yuanzheng, did indeed have such authority in his hands. As long as there was a suitable reason, it was not too difficult for him to get someone to join the Soaring Sky Pavilion.
"I'm not willing." Lin Yi's answer was concise and clear, causing the surrounding people to be taken aback.
"Huh?" Xu Lingchong was immediately stunned. The reason why he suddenly made this suggestion was because Actually, his ultimate goal was to teach Lin Yi a lesson.
After all, with his current identity, he was one of the representatives of Soaring Sky Pavilion. It was simply inconvenient for him to make a move against Lin Yi. Moreover, if he wanted to challenge Lin Yi like Su Zhaohe before, he would not have an official reason to do so. After all, he could not make the matter of his self-castration public.
However, if he could get Lin Yi into the Soaring Sky Pavilion, then as the Eldest Senior Brother in charge of the Soaring Sky Pavilion, it would be a piece of cake for him. At that time, it would be a piece of cake for him to pinch and flatten, and Lin Yi wouldn't be able to escape from his palms.
However, he did not expect that. Lin Yi rejected it without hesitation. Could it be that this guy had seen through his intentions?
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you reject it now, this road will be blocked by you. Don't even think about entering the Soaring Sky Pavilion in the future. Have you thought it through? "Xu Lingchong was still unwilling to give up.
"I'll just stay here. It's pretty good. Senior Brother Xu, you don't have to worry about me. " Lin Yi was stubborn. He looked Xu Lingchong up and down and then said with a playful expression, "Senior Brother Xu, it's great to see that you're fine. However … hehehehehe …"
Lin Yi's laughter was baffling to the bystanders, but Xu Lingchong was well aware of it. Motherf * cker, this kid was laughing at him for losing his family jewels!
"What are you laughing at!" Xu Lingchong was instantly pissed off by his laughter. He said furiously, "If you laugh again, believe it or not, this Young Master will kill you right now!"
"Hehe, you control the heavens and the earth, and you still care whether I laugh or not? The authority of the Soaring Sky Pavilion's Eldest Senior Brother in charge isn't so exaggerated, right?" Lin Yi looked at him mischievously.
"Hmph, Lin Yi, you have guts. You better be careful. Don't let this Young Master get hold of you!" Xu Lingchong was so angry that he gnashed his teeth. However, he could not make a move against Lin Yi. He could only turn around and leave with a gloomy face.
He really did not expect that Lin Yi, this fellow, was actually not afraid in the slightest when facing the current him. Looks like this kid is not as easy to deal with as I imagined. I have to plan properly in the future!
Lin Yi and Shangguan Laner, these two must pay the price!
As he looked at Xu Lingchong's disappearing figure, the corners of Lin Yi's mouth slightly curled. He has come with ill intentions. Since this fellow has returned, then he will surely look for trouble with me. I really have to be careful in the future.
In the following period of time, Lin Yi rarely went out, and he cultivated behind closed doors within his own abode every day. Originally, he had already faintly touched the barrier of the peak of the initial-stage of the Golden Core Realm, and he originally thought that he would be able to break through in one go. However, he didn't know why he seemed to have encountered a bottleneck. He was obviously only left with the last small step, yet he was unable to cross it all along, and he didn't know where the problem was.
Besides this, another matter caused Lin Yi to be rather surprised. Xu Lingchong actually didn't come looking for trouble with him!
During this period of time, Xu Lingchong continuously attended various occasions, and he once again became the Big Senior Brother in charge of the Soaring Sky Pavilion, and his power and status gradually stabilized. However, the only thing he didn't go looking for trouble with Lin Yi.
What was even more strange was that no matter where Xu Lingchong went, he always brought Meng Tong with him, and the two of them were actually inseparable like glue. It even caused Kang Ming Ming to feel jealous in his heart. He had always considered himself to be Xu Lingchong's number one underling!
Now, the trust and importance that Meng Tong obtained were obviously far above Kang Ming Ming, and what made him even more unhappy and bewildered was that Xu Lingchong still insisted that they must call Meng Tong as Brother Meng!
To treat Meng Tong, they must be at his beck and call with the utmost respect, just like how they treated him, Young Master Xu. Damn it, this is simply acknowledging an ancestor!
What bewitching soup did this fellow Meng Tong feed to Young Master Xu, to actually be so good to him? This is too good!
Moreover, the relationship between the two of them that was inseparable like glue, in the eyes of Kang Ming Ming, it was not at all like ordinary friends, or as simple as a superior and subordinate. The feeling it gave others was more like a pair of intimate lovers!
Lovers? As soon as this strange thought emerged, it gave Kang Ming Ming a fright, and the more he thought about it, the stranger he felt. However, he didn't dare to ask much, and could only continue to serve Xu Lingchong with a shudder.
Kang Zhaoming wasn't the only one who had this suspicion. Everyone else who was close to Xu Lingchong had the same question. Two grown men suddenly becoming so close to each other. This relationship was clearly beyond friendship. It was hard not to be suspicious. (To be continued …)
