"Really?" Lin Yi frowned and asked. ¤
Seeing that Lin Yi didn't seem to believe him, he quickly raised his hand and swore, "It's true, it's true, I swear to the heavens, I really don't know. Although those Profound ascension practitioners turned a blind eye to me, they never talked to me, and I didn't dare to ask, one wrong question might kill me …"
"Okay, next." Lin Yi did not continue to make things difficult for Sun Hengbiao, and immediately turned to the people next to him. Why were they caught, how long were they locked up here, and asked them one by one.
Although everyone was a little puzzled as to why Lin Yi did this, but with Sun Hengbiao's experience there, they would not dare to provoke such a cruel master. Moreover, it was just asking two questions. It was not a big deal, and they were not like Sun Hengbiao who would rob treasures at every turn. Naturally, they were happy to cooperate.
Everyone asked one by one, and everyone had different reasons. Some had a conflict with the Central Chamber of Commerce because they were buying things, some had a drink and went to the Central Chamber of Commerce to cause trouble, and some owed the Central Chamber of Commerce spiritual jades …
There were all kinds of strange reasons, no matter what they could think of, no matter what kind of messy reasons, some even made people not know whether to laugh or cry. But all of them had one thing in common, and that was that they were all related to the Central Chamber of Commerce.
After asking around, it was finally Lu Bianren's turn. Lin Yi deliberately asked them one by one. In addition to wanting to understand as much as possible, he actually wanted to ask Lu Bianren the most, but he did not want to expose his identity, so he could not name him alone, so he could only use this method to deceive people.
The two faced each other at close range. Lu Bianren felt that Lin Yi looked familiar, as if he had seen him before. Of course, he had never seen this rough and boorish face before, but Lin Yi's temperament was really familiar, and a little strange.
The strange thing was. Lin Yi's temperament really did not match his rough and boorish appearance. Most people would not feel it if they did not look carefully, but now that they felt it at such a close distance, they would feel out of place.
In the past, when Lu Bianren was in the Welcoming Pavilion, because his authority was taken away, he had nothing to do. Therefore, he had been studying all kinds of ancient books, especially the theory of face-to-face physiognomy.
As the saying goes, one's appearance is born from one's heart. Lin Yi's current rough and boorish appearance was completely incompatible with his temperament. For Lu Bianren, who was proficient in physiognomy, this was simply subverting common sense. It was not scientific at all!
However, Lu Bianren did not know that this fiend was Lin Yi. He was just as respectful as everyone else, not daring to be neglectful.
"I originally went to the Central Chamber of Commerce to gather information, but I don't know why or how I offended them, but I was inexplicably captured. Even now, I still haven't figured out the whole story. "Lu Bianren smiled bitterly.
Everyone was in disbelief, regardless of the reason, whether it was a big or small matter. When they were arrested, they had at least offended the Central Chamber of Commerce. This Lu Bianren was naturally the same. How could he be arrested just for gathering information?
These words were not entirely true. He must be hiding something! This was everyone's first reaction. However, Lu Bianren was telling the truth. This was the truth. Up until now, he was still confused and had no idea what was going on.
Lin Yi was also a little surprised, but he did not think that Lu Bianren was lying. Because Lu Bianren had always been open and aboveboard, and he was an upright person. He would not deliberately fabricate and deceive for this kind of thing.
"What information did you go to gather?" Lin Yi continued to ask without batting an eyelid.
"This … Can I not say?" Lu Bianren was a little embarrassed.
Everyone was suddenly in an uproar, and Sun Hengbiao looked like he was looking at a dead man. This fiend in front of him could even beat a ruthless person like him half to death. You are just a Golden Core expert, and you dare to put on airs in front of him?
It's just a question that doesn't matter. It's not like he will cut your flesh. Is it necessary to provoke such a ruthless person for such a small matter?
Even if there is something unspeakable in it, can't you just make up a lie? Why be so direct? Isn't this courting death?
However, this was Lu Bianren's style of doing things. If he could say it, he would say it. If he didn't want to say it, he would be straightforward. It was indeed easy to make up a lie, but if he would do that, then he would not be Lu Bianren.
Lu Bianren did not have any friendship with these people in the dungeon. Everyone was gloating, waiting for the fiend, Lin Yi, to flip out and watch the show. However, Lin Yi's reaction was far beyond their expectations.
"Alright, then forget it." Lin Yi nodded calmly, and then moved on to the next person.
Such a calm reaction made everyone wonder if they were blind, especially Sun Hengbiao, who almost cursed out loud on the spot. When he was dealing with him just now, this Demon God was ruthless. There was no way he was going to be so easy to negotiate!
Even Lu Bianren himself felt a little surprised. He was prepared to receive the other party's anger, but who would have thought that it would really be so easy? With just a few words, it was over. If it were anyone else, this person in front of him would probably have given them a kick …
Lu Bianren could not help but wonder if this strange sense of familiarity was really not an illusion. Had he really dealt with this person before?
Everyone looked at each other, but did not dare to make a sound. They could only watch as Lin Yi continued to ask questions with a belly full of questions.
Finally, after asking everyone in the dungeon, Lin Yi calmly found a place to sit cross-legged. Coincidentally, it was right next to Lu Bianren.
This time, even if everyone did not know what was going on, they began to understand. This fiend, who was even more ruthless than Sun Hengbiao, was obviously treating Lu Bianren differently!
In this dungeon, Lu Bianren had always been quiet, and had never done anything out of line. In everyone's eyes, he had always been the kind of person who was easy to bully. But now, they had to think about it a little more in the future.
Lu Bianren was indeed easy to bully, but if he made the fiend next to him unhappy, then he would not be able to find his grave even if he cried.
In this way, not only was everyone surprised and suspicious, even Lu Bianren himself was wondering if he had dealt with this person before. He did not look familiar, but his temperament was indeed very familiar.
