That was because Shangguan Tianhua was one of the top powerhouses of the five Heaven-Ranked Islands. Even their backers would have to clasp their hands in greeting when they saw him, to say nothing of juniors like them.
"Alright, for the sake of Deputy Island Master Shangguan, I'll bring you along to reap some benefits." Ren Zhongyuan snorted coldly and had to stop bitterly.
Deputy Island Master Shangguan? This time, it was Lin Yi who was a little stunned. He had been on Heaven-Stage Island for so long and had some interactions with Shanghai Tianhua, but he had never heard that this person was actually the Deputy Island Master of the North Island!
All along, the North Island had always emphasized the Three Pavilions. From top to bottom, everyone would say that it was the Three Pavilions of the North Island. Under this background, even the Island Master was extremely mysterious, let alone the Deputy Island Master.
Everyone knew that Shanghai Tianhua was the Pavilion Master of Soaring Pavilion, but not many people knew about his identity as the Deputy Island Master of the North Island. At least, newcomers like Lin Yi who were inexperienced had never heard of it.
Seeing how Ren Zhongyuan and the others looked at him as if they were giving him charity, Lin Yi didn't have the hostility he had before. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, especially Huo Yudie's pleading eyes, Lin Yi's lips curled up slightly, and he nodded noncommittally. "Alright, thanks for the trouble."
Although these people were not worth mentioning, if it was not necessary, Lin Yi did not want to have a conflict with the people of the East Continent for the time being. After all, these people had deep backgrounds in various academies. Unless it was absolutely necessary, Lin Yi did not want to make enemies with them.
Seeing that Lin Yi was so cooperative, Huo Yudie finally breathed a sigh of relief. From their previous contact, she had already seen that Lin Yi had an indescribable arrogance. Although it was not obvious on the surface, in fact, it was everywhere. She was really afraid that if Lin Yi had a conflict with these people, it would really be out of control.
Fortunately. Lin Yi might be arrogant, but he wasn't completely clueless. At least he knew when to yield and when to stand tall. He was not a brainless person.
"Junior-apprentice Sister Yu Die, let's go." Ren Zhongyuan immediately led the way forward. At the same time, he didn't forget to glance back at Lin Yi. "I hope you won't be a burden to us. Otherwise, even if you're Vice Island Master Shangguan's personal disciple, it'll be useless. If you die in the trial due to your lack of strength, no one will be able to say anything."
Carrie and the other man followed behind her. She also sized up Lin Yi with a profound gaze. With a mocking expression, she said, "Hehe, no wonder Senior Sister Huo took a fancy to you. So you have such a powerful backer. But still, be careful, don't die. "
Lin Yi shrugged his shoulders indifferently. It seemed that these guys really treated him as a punching bag. Did they really think that he was a pushover? It was fine if nothing happened along the way. Otherwise, he might end up kicking an iron plate!
"Don't take it to heart. They took their anger out on you because of me. I'm sorry." Huo Yudie deliberately walked at the back with Lin Yi and apologized in a low voice.
"Oh, it doesn't matter to me." Lin Yi replied with a faint smile.
"En, that's good." Seeing that Lin Yi's calm appearance didn't seem to be fake, Huo Yudie's eyes couldn't help but show some appreciation. A look of admiration appeared in Huo Yudie's eyes. Although her strength was far from Ren Zhongyuan's and the others', it was rare to see such an indifferent attitude. Compared to those people, it was obvious who was superior.
"Forgive me for asking, but are you sure there's no problem with moving with the three of them?" Lin Yi suddenly asked. His goal with Huo Yudie was the Thunder Xuan Rattan. Now, it was obvious that he had disrupted Huo Yudie's original plan and rhythm. If he couldn't obtain the Thunder Xuan Rattan like this, he didn't want to waste time with these people.
"This …" Huo Yudie was also a little hesitant. She said with some hesitation, "One more person means one more strength. Moving with them can be said to have advantages and disadvantages. Let's take it one step at a time. If it doesn't work, we'll think of another way. "
"Okay. If that's what you're saying, then I have no objections. "Lin Yi nodded. It was obvious that Huo Yudie didn't want to say too much. Her words were ambiguous, and he didn't know what she meant. He then asked, "Oh, by the way, who are they specifically?"
Although he could infer some identity information from just a few words, it was, after all, not complete. Lin Yi felt that it was necessary to first find out the other party's background. When there was a conflict, it would be convenient for him to weigh the pros and cons and not have too many misgivings.
"The man in the front is called Ren Zhongyuan. You also heard this. He is a disciple of East Continent's Soaring Cloud Academy. He doesn't have any background in Soaring Cloud Academy, but he is the son of our academy's Grand Chancellor." Speaking of this person, Huo Yudie's eyes clearly showed a bit of disgust. It could be seen that this suitor was really not in her favor.
"Grand Chancellor?" Lin Yi was stunned. He had heard of positions like Grand Chancellor. For example, his old rival Nantian Aurora was the Grand Chancellor of Middle Island's Cultivator Academy. However, this was the first time he had heard of Grand Chancellor.
"Yes, this is a special position of East Continent's academy. In terms of authority, it is basically equal to that of the Vice Dean. The two positions both overlap and oppose each other. To a certain extent, the control of the academy is even stronger than that of the Vice Dean, because all the Grand Chancellors and students are under the jurisdiction of the Grand Chancellor. Everything is decided by the Grand Chancellor." Huo Yudie explained.
"I see." Lin Yi roughly understood the meaning of this position. It was mostly because East Continent's academy was too powerful and powerful, so it was specially set up to balance the power of the academy, so that the Vice Dean could not cover the sky with one hand. After all, the Dean of each academy would not have the mood to personally manage the internal affairs of the academy.
"The other man is called Yi Xiaotian. He is also a disciple of Soaring Cloud Academy. His uncle is a Vice Dean of Soaring Cloud Academy." Speaking of this, Huo Yudie suddenly paused. She blushed and said in a mosquito-like voice, "He is Jiali's cultivation partner, so he often comes to our academy with Ren Zhongyuan."
"Cultivation partner?" Lin Yi could not help but look at the two of them strangely. Sure enough, Yi Xiaotian's hand was restlessly groping Jiali's body. He dared to do such a thing in front of them, he was really a weirdo.
However, this brat might not necessarily be uninterested in Huo Yudie. Although his reaction was not as big as Ren Zhongyuan's, his gaze towards Huo Yudie was clearly filled with lust. Eating from the bowl and looking at the pot, this was a common problem of young masters.
"As for Junior Sister Jiali, her full name is Yao Jiali. She is the granddaughter of our Morning Pride Academy's Vice Dean." Huo Yudie suddenly looked at Lin Yi with a deep meaning, then continued to say, "The secular world girl that I told you about before, only ended up like this because she offended her."
