"How have you two been recently?" Lin Yi asked with a smile after the three of them hugged each other quietly for a long time.
"Yes, Big Sister Xinyan treats me better than a real sister. Master also loves me very much. No matter what happens, he dotes on us as if we were his own daughters. You saw it just now," Huang Xiaotao said with a blissful expression.
She originally thought it would be very hard to be separated from Lin Yi, but both Wang Xinyan and the Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea made her feel like home. Even if she missed Lin Yi all the time, her days were not as difficult as she imagined. On the contrary, she was very happy these days.
Since her parents died when she was a child, she was forced to stay with relatives. Everyone around her treated her like a commodity rather than a child. Even after they found out that she had a good aptitude for cultivation, she was just a rare commodity that could be hoarded. They never really cared about her.
But now, not only did she have Lin Yi, she also had a gentle sister like Wang Xinyan, and a motherly master like the Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea. Huang Xiaotao was a very contented person. She already felt very happy to have so many people care for her. She would not ask for more.
Lin Yi glanced at Wang Xinyan gratefully. He was secretly glad that all his women were so nice. Otherwise, it would be a headache if one of them got jealous easily.
Wang Xinyan naturally knew what Lin Yi was thinking. She rolled her eyes at him flirtatiously, but then she couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. She had always been kind to others. Moreover, Huang Xiaotao got along so well with her. She would naturally treat Huang Xiaotao well from the bottom of her heart.
Perhaps Wang Xinyan herself didn't realize that she was so understanding and magnanimous. Instead, it would make Lin Yi like her more, value her more, and love her more.
"Let's not talk about the two of us. How are you? You seem to be in trouble again?" Wang Xinyan asked with concern.
Although she did not know what Wei Zhaotong and the others were planning, this incident seemed to be a conspiracy no matter how she looked at it. If Lin Yi had not handled it properly just now, it might have been a disaster. Fortunately, the result was not bad. Not only did they not succeed. He even brought the other party into the picture.
"It is indeed a little troublesome, but it is not a big problem. I can handle it." Lin Yi said with a smile. It was rare for him to reunite with the two girls, and he didn't want to say anything that would dampen the mood at such a good time. Moreover, with his own strength, he was indeed able to deal with it.
"Tell us. Are you going to tell us the good news and not the bad news in front of us? Then we'll do the same thing in the future. I won't tell you, no matter what trouble I'm in! "Xinyan pursed her lips.
"Yes, I learned it from you," Huang Xiaotao added.
"I say, you two have only known each other for a few days, and you're already on the same side?" Lin Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He could only surrender and said, "Well, there's nothing else anyway. I'll tell you about it. "
"That's a good boy!" Wang Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao were finally satisfied. They hugged Lin Yi's arms and sat down, indicating for Lin Yi to speak quickly.
"This time, they suddenly recommended me to the Big Three of the Academy. It is certain that Wei Zhaotong and Cheng Ketian are behind it. I believe you can see this," Lin Yi said.
"It is not strange that Cheng Ketian is behind it. We have a grudge with him before, but Wei Zhaotong is the manager of the Hong Chamber of Commerce's branch, and he is Hong Zhong's old friend. There is no enmity between them, so why would he want to deal with you?" Huang Xiaotao asked curiously.
"It can't be said that there is no enmity between them. At least from his point of view, I spoiled his plans, so he bears a grudge. "Lin Yi smiled faintly.
"Spoiled his plans? What plans? "Wang Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao were instantly even more curious.
"Xiaotao, do you remember when we were on a mission and were robbed by four pirates? I told you that there was something fishy about it? Actually, the fishy thing was that these pirates were hired by Wei Zhaotong himself! " Lin Yi laughed coldly. "He found someone to take back his own goods, and at the same time, he extorted a large sum of spirit jades from the Heaven's Equal Escort Agency. It was a total of 300,000 spirit jades. Compensate according to the price! "
"Ah? This person is actually so black-hearted? " Huang Xiaotao couldn't help but be speechless. She was different from Wang Xinyan. Because she knew that Wei Zhaotong was Hong Zhong's old friend, she had a preconceived impression that Wei Zhaotong was a good person.
"That is the truth. If I hadn't caught those four pirates by chance, I wouldn't have believed that Wei Zhaotong was actually such a person. You still don't know that the goods that he took back were life-saving goods for the Fang Family on Roc Island. This is a life-saving item for the hundreds of people in the Fang Clan Village on Roc Roc Island. Otherwise, they would not have been able to escape this time. "Lin Yi sighed.
"What happened after that? After you caught the pirates and caught them red-handed, he couldn't deny it, could he? "Wang Xinyan asked.
"Although we caught them red-handed, this old fox is cunning and stubborn. Even if we brought witnesses to confront him, he would insist that it was false. After all, he was the manager of a branch of the Hong Chamber of Commerce. We couldn't force him, so we couldn't do anything to him." Lin Yi shook his head.
"So you're saying that the Heaven's Equal Escort Agency was cheated of 300,000 spirit jades by him, but they could do nothing about it?" Wang Xinyan asked in surprise.
"Everyone in the agency is helpless, but that is the truth. I can only say that people change. This time, even Hong Zhong was wrong about him." Lin Yi spread his hands and said.
"This Wei Zhaotong is really bad! He disregarded the lives of hundreds of people. Not only did he frame the Heaven's Equal Escort Agency, but he also framed you this time. We can't let him go so easily! " Even with Huang Xiaotao's gentle personality, she was filled with righteous indignation after hearing this. She turned to Wang Xinyan and said, "Sister Xinyan, why don't we ask Master for help and punish him?"
She knew that Lin Yi was going to stay in the Weiarc Territorial Waters for a while. If she didn't get rid of this threat, Wei Zhaotong, as soon as possible, she wouldn't be at ease leaving. Moreover, the Morning Star Academy had a high status. If the Godly Nun of the Eastern Sea personally intervened, no matter how cunning Wei Zhaotong was, he wouldn't dare to argue in front of a Mountain Opening Period giant.
"This …" Wang Xinyan was a little hesitant. After staying in the Morning Star Academy for more than a year, she knew more than Huang Xiaotao. She shook her head slightly and said, "Sister Xiaotao, although the academy has a high status, we can't ruin our relationship with a top Chamber of Commerce like the Hong Chamber of Commerce. Otherwise, we'll be in a passive position in the future. After all, we don't have any relations. Even a Mountain Opening Period giant like our Master can't casually punish someone from the Hong Chamber of Commerce. This is a big taboo. Didn't you see that Dean Ling was very angry just now, but he still let Wei Zhaotong go?"
