This was not just because his strength had increased by leaps and bounds. More importantly, this guy's identity was just too frightening. Not only was he the honorary vice president of the Hong Chamber of Commerce, but he had also become Qing Danzi's master.
In terms of identity alone, Lin Yi was at least on the same level as the three heavyweights of the Morning Star Academy. He might even be a level higher than them!
After all, Qing Danzi was the chief alchemist of the academy, and his status was not much lower than the three heavyweights. Yet, Lin Yi had actually become Qing Danzi's master. Just thinking about this was enough to make one faint.
However, although it sounded strange, the cultivation world was still a place where strength was respected. No matter what aspect you were extraordinary in, as long as you could reach a certain level of strength, you would definitely receive the respect of the world. The path of alchemy was the same!
With Lin Yi's current strength, he was naturally far from being on the same level as the three heavyweights. However, if he really was a legendary Profound Tier first level alchemist like Qing Danzi had said, then it would not be as simple as being on the same level as them. He might even be a level higher than them!
"Hehe, what an interesting young man." Ling Yuanqing glanced deeply at Lin Yi from within the crowd, then turned around and walked out of the first floor of the Morning Star Academy. There was no need for him, the dean, to stand out and say anything. Without a doubt, the Hong Chamber of Commerce would be the academy's only supplier in the future.
"Dean, you actually let that kid fool you back then. Don't you feel a little regretful?" Wei Hebei suddenly appeared behind Ling Yuanqing. He turned around with a strange expression to look at Lin Yi in the crowd behind him.
This was actually what he was thinking. In terms of thirst for a genius disciple, he, Wei Hebei, was the one with the greatest desire among the three heavyweights. In the end, he discovered that such a heaven-defying young man had slipped through his fingers. Right now, he was so regretful that his intestines were turning green.
"It's too late for regrets now. He's on equal footing with the two of you right now. If you still want him to become your disciple, he'll become a laughing stock if this gets out. At the very least, Qing Danzi's expression will be very interesting." Before they knew it, the Divine Nun of the East Sea had also appeared before them.
Beside her were Wang Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao, who constantly glanced back. From the moment they discovered Lin Yi, they were eager to reunite with Lin Yi. It was just a pity that there were far too many people here, so the Divine Nun of the East Sea finally persuaded them to stop.
At this moment, there was only one thing that the two girls wanted to do the most. That was to hurry back to the academy, then sneak off to the Hong Chamber of Commerce to see Lin Yi.
Hearing what the Divine Nun of the East Sea said, Ling Yuanqing and Wei Hebei could not help but smile wryly at one another. They could only look at Huang Xiaotao. "Xiaotao, oh Xiaotao, why didn't you remind me back then? Wouldn't it have been better to let your senior brother join the academy as well? With his talent and strength, his treatment would definitely be amazing. Sigh …"
Once Lin Yi joined, not only would their academy gain another genius disciple, but more importantly, they would gain a supreme alchemist who was suspected to be at the first level of the Profound level. The benefits of this were immeasurable, but unfortunately, it was too late to say anything now.
"Uncle-Master, this is my senior brother's decision. I can't interfere." Huang Xiaotao stuck out her tongue and looked at Wang Xinyan with a smile.
The passersby all gave way to them and watched the three heavyweights of the academy leave. On the other side, after the commotion of the auction on the first floor of the Morningstar Pavilion came to a dramatic end, Qing Danzi immediately suggested, "Master, do you want to go to our academy to take a look? The scenery inside is quite nice. You can also give me some pointers on the alchemy room. How about that?"
"That's fine." Lin Yi immediately nodded. He was still worrying about how he could sneak into the academy and meet Wang Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao. Qing Danzi's suggestion was exactly what he wanted.
Honest Chai didn't say anything else. After handing over all the matters on hand to Cui Mingshan, he hurriedly accompanied Lin Yi and Qing Danzi.
The following auction had nothing to do with the Chamber of Commerce anymore. The most important thing for him now was to accompany Lin Yi well. At the same time, he wanted to build a good relationship with Qing Danzi, his future alchemist. After all, after Lin Yi left, he would have to rely on Qing Danzi to provide high-grade pills.
Under the gaze of the crowd, Qing Danzi personally led the way for Lin Yi to the Morningstar Academy. Having just become Lin Yi's disciple, he was overwhelmed with emotions. He wanted to perform well in front of Lin Yi and think of ways to please him.
Qing Danzi took the shortcut. As a result, when they arrived at the gates of the Morningstar Academy, they bumped into Ling Yuanqing's group.
Qing Danzi was surprised and hurriedly introduced them to Lin Yi. He thought that Lin Yi only knew Ling Yuanqing and didn't know that the two people beside him were the other two giants of the Morningstar Academy.
As they listened to Qing Danzi's introduction, Ling Yuanqing and the others looked at each other. Speak of the devil, and the devil appears. On the way here, they had been talking about Lin Yi and didn't expect to bump into him again. This time, they were really dumbfounded and didn't know what to say.
However, Lin Yi didn't listen to him at all. His gaze landed on the two women behind the Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea. At the same time, Wang Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao also looked at him with joy. They were so happy that tears of joy rolled down their cheeks.
Although for cultivators, Lin Yi hadn't been separated from them for a long time, longing was like an illness. The deeper the feelings, the deeper the illness. When it came to Lin Yi and his female friends, it could only be said that the illness was beyond cure.
Thousands of words could only be said in this silent exchange of gazes.
"Young hero Lin, we meet again." Ling Yuanqing finally opened his mouth after a moment of silence. As the number one person in the Morningstar Academy, it was rare for him to greet someone with such a tone, especially someone as young as Lin Yi. However, with Lin Yi's qualifications, it was completely worth it for him to treat him differently.
"Senior Ling, Senior Wei, Senior Eastern Sea, long time no see." Lin Yi nodded with a smile.
At this time, Huang Xiaotao's eyes moved. She couldn't help but want to go over and hug Lin Yi, but because Wang Xinyan was standing next to her, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed. After all, Wang Xinyan was ranked before her, and as the younger sister, she couldn't always be ahead of her older sister. In this regard, Huang Xiaotao was a woman with a very traditional concept of seniority.
Wang Xinyan couldn't help but laugh and pinch her hand. The two of them had been together for so long, and they already understood each other very well. She could tell what Huang Xiaotao was thinking with just a glance. There was still a tacit understanding between sisters.
Huang Xiaotao blushed a little. Under everyone's gaze, she didn't dare to be too bold. She could only suppress the surging emotions in her heart and walk up to Lin Yi. Her voice trembled as she said, "Senior Lin."
