"You flatter me. I am Ling Yi, and this is Junior Sister Huang from the same sect. How should I address you?" Lin Yi took the initiative to introduce himself. Since he had decided to join the group, even if he was secretly on guard, he still had to do something to show his face.
"I am Chang Daoping. You two think highly of me. You can call me Brother Chang." Chang Daoping nodded faintly and then said to the other five people, "You guys should also introduce yourselves."
"My name is Cao Shishi." The beautiful woman next to Lin Yi glanced at them with disdain. However, since Chang Daoping had spoken, they could only do as he said. They reluctantly said their names and were too lazy to say anything else.
"Luo Tuoxiang." Next was the younger brother at the peak of the late stage of the Gold Core Realm. He was arrogant and didn't put Lin Yi and the other two little ants in his eyes. In contrast, Chang Daoping, a master of the Original Infant Stage, was much more magnanimous than him.
The other three people didn't say much and just said their names. Two men and one woman were Hu Youli, Fan Dongji, and Fang Miaojin.
These people mocked Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao the moment they arrived. Now that they were afraid of Chang Daoping's power, they didn't dare to say anything. However, it was too much to expect them to be nice.
Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao only nodded faintly, not taking it to heart. They didn't have the habit of being snubbed, and Chang Daoping was the leader of the team. It didn't matter if their relationship with these people was good or bad. Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao only nodded faintly, not taking it seriously.
Chang Daoping didn't say much. He deliberately invited Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao to join the group. Naturally, he had his own reasons. As long as he could achieve his goal, everything else didn't matter.
As for how everyone got along with each other, it was not something he needed to care about. No matter how tense the atmosphere was, it didn't matter as long as they didn't piss off Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao.
"Alright. Let's go. " Chang Daoping commanded and immediately led the way. Cao Shishi and the others followed closely behind without saying a word. In the end, Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao looked at each other and followed behind the crowd.
Chang Daoping led the way at an extremely fast speed. He was clearly shuttling through the dense forest, and his footsteps were clearly not hurried, but his speed was inexplicably fast. One moment he was here, and the next moment he was fifty feet away.
If the people behind him were not Golden Core stage experts. If it was a Foundation Establishment expert, even if it was a Foundation Establishment expert who had completed the Foundation Establishment realm, they might not even be able to keep up with Chang Daoping's footsteps, let alone others.
Even the group of Golden Core stage experts had to constantly consume the True Qi in their bodies to keep up with Chang Daoping, who was at the front. During the journey, Cao Shishi, Luo Tuoxiang and the others deliberately turned back to look at the two of them, as if they wanted to see them make a fool of themselves.
After all, both of them were only at the early-stage of the Gold Core Realm. Chang Daoping's speed made it difficult for them to keep up with him, let alone these two at the bottom. They probably had to use all their strength. Only then could they barely keep up and not fall behind.
However, when they saw the calm expressions of Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao at this moment, their expressions suddenly became as strange as if they had eaten shit. The two of them felt even more relaxed than them. Even if they were strong and calm, they also had this kind of strength, right?
These two bumpkins at the early-stage of the Gold Core Realm. Could it be that they were still hiding some powerful trump card? At least it should not be as simple as it looked on the surface!
In fact, the current speed was not beyond the range of the two people's endurance. Not to mention Lin Yi, even Huang Xiaotao, who had been doing trial missions in the dense forest all year round, could completely adapt. Don't forget her martial arts skills and ability, the virgin forest was her best home.
Of course, such a fast journey for a long time would consume a lot of qi reserves. However, Lin Yi had been holding her hand and could replenish her qi at any time, so naturally there was no pressure.
After rushing for four to six hours, Chang Daoping, who was in front, finally stopped and gestured for everyone to rest for a while.
Everyone nodded silently and sat cross-legged to recover their qi. Chang Daoping himself did not speak, which was completely different from the amiable and approachable style he had shown before. The atmosphere was quite heavy.
Although Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao were full of qi, in order to not attract attention, they also sat cross-legged to recover.
Lin Yi could not help but ask, "Brother Chang, I have a question. You have been leading the way all the way, and it seems that you have not used us in any way. Why did you invite us to join and let us share for no reason?"
Only by showing enough value would people come to rope you in, and then you would have enough status and right to speak. However, in the current situation, no matter how Lin Yi looked at it, he felt that the two of them were superfluous. They were simply called to freeload the Star Ink Milk for no reason.
There must be something wrong when things were abnormal. This matter felt strange no matter how he thought about it!
"You will know in a while." Chang Daoping replied indifferently, but he only said this before continuing to meditate with his eyes closed, and he paid no further attention to Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao.
Lin Yi originally wanted to ask another question, but when he saw Chang Daoping's attitude, it had completely turned 180 degrees from when he was trying to rope him in earlier. Obviously, Chang Daoping was unwilling to pay attention to him, so it was useless to say anything more at this moment.
However, with the speed at which this person changed his attitude like flipping a book, the slight uneasiness in Lin Yi's heart was instantly magnified. This person is obviously not too reliable. If he doesn't keep his word later, then the two of us will probably really suffer a loss.
However, despite his misgivings, Lin Yi did not reveal any of it on his face, and he was still carefree as before. In any case, with the combined combat strength of him and Huang Xiaotao, if they were to really fall out and fight in the end, it was still uncertain who would be the one laughing in the end.
Moreover, from Chang Daoping's words, he could also tell that he must have a special intention to deliberately rope them in. Before they were put to use, he would not easily fall out with them.
The only thing that needed to be paid attention to was whether he would use the lives of Gold Core Stage experts as a sacrifice like Chu Bubai did before. He must be careful about this.
After resting for about one hour, Chang Daoping once again led everyone on their journey. After walking for another two hours, Chang Daoping, who was leading the way, stopped. Everyone only felt that there was suddenly a clear view in front of them, and they actually felt like they had walked out of a primeval forest.
Just now, it was still a dense forest that was overgrown with vegetation, and every step forward was difficult. However, there was nothing in front of them, and it was barren as far as the eye could see. There were no towering trees that were dozens of meters tall, nor were there dense weeds and shrubs. The only thing that everyone could see was a real wasteland. (To be continued …)
