They had to be at least as powerful as the entire West Mountain Evil Sect in order to have the right to intervene in this matter. However, that was all they had. It was almost impossible for the ambitious Vermillion Bird to stop just like that.
This kind of big event, which could easily affect the overall situation of the entire Heaven-Stage Island, could only be handled by the big figures of the famous sects after the matter was blown up. With Lin Yi's current strength, he could barely protect himself. Of course, he couldn't get involved in this mess. It was the right thing to do to return to the north island before it happened.
Although everything was normal in the Weiarc Sea Area, Lin Yi didn't dare to act rashly. The training in the past month had made him much more vigilant. Unless he was sure that nothing would go wrong, he wouldn't appear in public in front of everyone.
Even though Weiarc City was far less dangerous than the south island, Lin Yi still clearly remembered that West Mountain Old Sect clearly said that he would come to the Dragon Boat Escort Agency at the South Continent Escort Agency's conference. Before figuring out West Mountain Old Sect's movements, appearing rashly was tantamount to asking for trouble.
Because of all the previous legendary deeds, Lin Yi could be regarded as a well-known celebrity in Weiarc City. It was estimated that he would attract a large group of people if he stood in any corner. Fortunately, Lin Yi was now wearing the Thousand Silk Mask. In the eyes of ordinary people, he was just a vulgar person from the Martial Artist Path. Naturally, he wouldn't attract attention.
After entering the familiar Weiarc City, Lin Yi didn't do anything for the whole day. He just found a restaurant, ate something, and rested. At the same time, he pricked up his ears to listen to the discussions of other diners around him.
This was also a kind of experience in Jianghu. If you wanted to know what had happened in a place recently, the best way was to sit in the local restaurant for a day. Basically, even the slightest movement of grass in the wind could be known clearly.
As expected, almost all of the three most talked about things around him were directly or indirectly related to Lin Yi. One was the various legendary deeds of Lin Yi, and the second was the new hegemon of the South Continent's Equal Escort Agency. The third one was the evil cultivator giant, West Mountain Elder Sect, who was in charge of the Dragon Boat Escort Agency.
The first two items were just for show, but the last one was extremely valuable to Lin Yi. It was fortunate that he didn't show his face to the public, otherwise once the news of his return got out, with the old sect's unrelenting attitude, they'd be the first to come after him. That'd be troublesome.
Lin Yi waited in the restaurant until the sky turned dark before he left. Under the cover of the night, he made his way to the Equal Heaven Escort Agency. Initially, he wanted to enter the agency through the main entrance. However, when he saw a few vendors glancing at him from time to time, Lin Yi immediately gave up on the idea. Instead, he climbed over the wall in the backyard.
This was not the night market in the secular world. After dark, there were basically no stalls on the street. After all, this place was chaotic during the day, and it was even more chaotic at night. Those who were not brave would not even dare to stay on the street, let alone set up a stall.
At this time, there were only two kinds of vendors who would still stick to their posts. One was that they were really in need of spiritual jades, and the other was that they had ulterior motives. The few people opposite the Equal Heaven Escort Agency were not dressed shabbily. They did not seem to be in dire straits, and it was obvious that they were not in need of spiritual jades. It was obvious that they were the latter.
In the entire Velvet Arc City, there was only one force that would be so sneaky as to keep an eye on the Equal Heaven Escort Agency. That was the Dragon Boat Escort Agency. Lin Yi was eighty percent sure that these spies were placed here to keep an eye on him. Once he appeared, the West Mountain Elder Sect would be the first to receive news.
He had stayed in the Equal Heaven Escort Agency for a long time. Lin Yi was very familiar with the internal structure of the Equal Heaven Escort Agency. Although it was the overlord of the escort agencies in the South Continent's seas, the security of the Equal Heaven Escort Agency was much stronger than before. However, no matter how many people were on duty, they could not stop Lin Yi from sneaking in.
After a month of intense training, the heavily guarded Heaven's Equal Escort Agency was practically defenseless to Lin Yi now. There wasn't even a shred of difficulty in the slightest.
It was another day of socializing. Qi Wenhan rubbed his head as he staggered back to his room. He reeked of alcohol. He had no choice. Ever since he became the overlord of the South Continent's escort agency, there would be big customers coming to visit him every few days. As the young master of the escort agency, he naturally had to come out and entertain them. Drinking with them was something he couldn't refuse.
"I have to entertain customers again tomorrow. I have to accompany them all day long. F * ck, I used to be the young master of an escort agency, but now I've almost become a prostitute of the Drunken Flower Brothel …" Qi Wenhan sat on the edge of his bed in a daze. He smiled bitterly as he complained. In the past, he had dreamed of becoming the overlord of the escort agency. However, now that his dream had come true, he felt that it was no longer as easy as before.
"Hehe, it looks like Brother Qi is very familiar with the Drunken Flower Brothel. Come, have a cup of spirit tea to relieve your hangover." A figure had appeared at a table not far away from him. He smiled faintly at Qi Wenhan and poured a cup of tea for Qi Wenhan. At the same time, he poured a cup for himself and took a sip in satisfaction. He did not treat himself as an outsider at all.
"Sure, thanks a lot." Qi Wenhan subconsciously got up and walked toward the table. He only realized after walking halfway. His drunkenness instantly dissipated and turned into a cold sweat. As if facing a formidable enemy, he said warily, "Who's there?!"
Qi Wenhan immediately sobered up. He could not stop the lingering fear in his heart. He wanted to give himself two tight slaps. He did not even know that someone had entered his room. He must have drunk himself into a drunken stupor! Fortunately, the other party did not attack him immediately. Otherwise, even if he had a hundred lives, his neck would have been sliced off.
"What? It's only been a month, and Brother Qi has already forgotten about me? " That person turned around with a smile. It was none other than Lin Yi who had snuck in silently. However, this was not his original appearance, and he was still wearing the Thousand Silk Mask.
"Brother Ling?!" Qi Wenhan was immediately overjoyed when he heard this voice. However, looking at this completely unfamiliar face in front of him, he was suddenly stunned. Looking at his incredulous eyes, it was obvious that he had already guessed Lin Yi's identity. He just did not dare to be a hundred percent sure.
"Brother Qi need not be suspicious. It is indeed me, Lin Yi." Lin Yi nodded with a smile.
"Ah? It really is you, Brother Ling?! " Only then did Qi Wenhan completely confirm Lin Yi's identity. Although his appearance had changed, his voice and figure had not changed. That was enough.
"Hehe, it's been a month since we last met. Brother Qi, how have you been?" Lin Yi nodded affirmatively. At the same time, he gave Qi Wenhan a look, indicating that he should not make too much noise. (To be continued …)
