"I'm sorry to have wronged you these days. I'll reward you well when I go back." Lin Yi stroked the spirit bird's neck happily. The nursing station wouldn't embezzle the spirit beast's food, but that was all. Spirit beasts, like humans, needed companionship and communication. After returning to the north island, Lin Yi had to spend more time on this spirit bird. Otherwise, how could he repay Huang Xiaotao's kindness?
The spirit bird responded clearly, bending its head and rubbing against Lin Yi intimately. It seemed that it was very satisfied with its male master.
Lin Yi smiled slightly and then jumped onto the spirit bird's back. After a loud cry, the spirit bird spread its wings and flapped them slightly. Immediately, it rose quickly and steadily into the air. It was true that the spirit bird was a flying spirit beast made for human cultivators.
Feeling the whistling wind in his ears and looking at the rising red sun in the distance, Lin Yi was in a good mood. After being out for so long, he was finally going back.
The spirit bird was very intelligent. It could clearly remember any route it flew over once. Therefore, this time, Lin Yi didn't even need to point the way. The spirit bird could find the way back to the north island by itself, and it was more accurate and reliable than Lin Yi. Therefore, he only needed to sit on the back of the spirit bird and practice.
Lin Yi stretched comfortably on the back of the spirit bird. When he was about to sit down and practice, the jade pendant suddenly sounded a warning. Even the spirit bird seemed to sense some danger and became very panicked. Lin Yi's heart suddenly tightened. He quickly looked around vigilantly. "What's going on?!"
"Wa ya ya ya, Ling Yi junior, you really didn't die?" A cloud of black fog appeared behind him out of thin air. At the same time, it was accompanied by the West Mountain Patriarch's sneer and exclamation with some disbelief. "Even I was covered in dust and almost died in that damn place. With your insignificant strength, you were able to escape. How lucky are you?"
Looking at the West Mountain Patriarch who was gradually becoming visible in the black fog … Lin Yi was so shocked that his heart skipped a beat. His expression changed. The reason why he had been so cautious on his return this time, even going to the Equal Heaven Escort Agency in the middle of the night without showing his face, was to guard against this West Mountain Old Sect Master. Who would have thought that he would still end up like this? How did this guy know about him?
However, Lin Yi quickly understood. Not only did the Dragon Boat Escort Agency have spies around the Equal of Heaven Escort Agency, but they also had spies at the docks. Perhaps even the manservants at the spirit beast nursing station were their people.
Lin Yi's actions could not be said to be careless, but there was a hurdle that he could not bypass. He had to retrieve the spirit bird that Huang Xiaotao had placed here. This was the only flaw, and it was also a fatal flaw.
Once he took Huang Xiaotao's spirit bird, it would be useless even if he changed his appearance. People could easily guess his identity just by looking at him riding on the spirit bird. The West Mountain Old Sect Master received the news. Naturally, he would rush over immediately like now!
He was too careless! Lin Yi secretly regretted it, but he really had no choice. Even if it was to avoid the West Mountain Old Sect Master, he couldn't just give up Huang Xiaotao's spirit bird, right?
"Hum. If it wasn't for someone informing me, I wouldn't have been able to recognize you if you had changed into such a vulgar appearance. However, looking at your current performance, you're undoubtedly Ling Yi. This is really the will of the heavens helping me. Jie Jie Jie Jie! "The West Mountain Old Sect Master sneered complacently.
He now hated Lin Yi to the core. This was not only related to the death of his two disciples, Wu Bao Liang and Cheng Haonan, but also not just to refine the trump card puppet. It was also for his own face.
The last time he chased after Lin Yi under the watchful eyes of the public, he did not expect to be defeated. Lin Yi could neither kill him nor catch him. Instead, he was embarrassed in the south island. How could he, a dignified evil cultivator tycoon of the opening period, endure this?
As a tycoon of evil cultivators, to be honest, West Mountain Old Sect Master did not care much about his disciples being killed. Anyway, he had always regarded human life as grass. If a disciple died, he could take another disciple. It was no big deal. But at his level, he could never lose his face no matter what the occasion was. Otherwise, he would not only be laughed at, but it would also greatly affect his deterrent power.
If a tycoon of evil cultivators could not scare people and control the situation, what was the point of showing up?
The sudden appearance of West Mountain Old Sect Master made Lin Yi, who was in a good mood, feel as if a bucket of ice water was poured on his head. But fortunately, his nerves were tough. After seeing West Mountain Old Sect Master, although he was inevitably stunned, he quickly reacted and hurriedly drove the spirit bird to escape.
The flying speed of the spirit bird was extremely fast. It was first-class among all flying spirit beasts. In terms of absolute speed, it was at least comparable to Lin Yi's extreme butterfly microsteps on the ground. Although West Mountain Old Sect Master seemed to be able to fly, compared with real flying spirit beasts, he could only be regarded as floating at most. His speed in the air was certainly not comparable with the spirit bird.
It was a pity that West Mountain Old Sect Master didn't need to be very fast to chase people. As long as his Divine Awareness locked on Lin Yi's position like last time, he could directly catch up with him in an instant. This kind of amazing skill couldn't be gotten rid of by speed alone.
One of the key reasons why he could escape last time was that Lin Yi was covered with swamp mud, which successfully isolated him from the West Mountain Old Sect Master's Divine Awareness. That was why he could escape with the help of the ghost. Otherwise, no matter how fast he was, no matter how hard he tried to use the extreme butterfly microsteps, it would be useless.
During the month in the south island, Lin Yi collected some swamp mud with the same effect in the space of the jade pendant. But now he was in a hurry, and it was impossible for West Mountain Old Sect Master to give him the chance to apply swamp mud on his body. Besides, it was useless to apply swamp mud on himself. West Mountain Old Sect Master only needed to lock on his spirit bird.
What was worse was that today happened to be a good day. Originally, the sea fog could more or less obstruct the West Mountain Old Sect Master's Divine Awareness. But now it was a rare clear sky …
Even if there was no Divine Awareness, he could see Lin Yi with his eyes!
"Don't be afraid. Run in the direction of the Five Poisons Swamp!" The ghost's voice sounded in his mind at the right time.
"Okay!" Lin Yi immediately nodded decisively. It seemed that he could only use the same trick again. He escaped to the south island like last time and scared the old devil away. Looking at all the surrounding places, perhaps only those spirit beasts in the south island could make West Mountain Old Sect Master flinch.
