"Oh?" Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Although Bao Wuliang was a second generation cultivator, he didn't take it to heart. After all, with Wang Xinyan's beauty, it would be strange if no one pursued her. Even if Bao Wuliang didn't exist, there would be Zhu Wuliang and Ma Wuliang.
"Sister Xinyan is right. This Bao Wuliang is not a good person. He often harasses the female students in the academy. I heard that one of them was forced into a corner by him and committed suicide. It's just that his father's background is too powerful, so no one dares to speak up." Huang Xiaotao was also filled with righteous indignation.
"There's such a thing? No wonder you guys call him Bao Wuliang. You're right. He deserves it. " Lin Yi frowned. If it was just a normal spoiled brat, he wouldn't care. However, he couldn't just ignore a scumbag who had no regard for human life, especially one who had designs on Wang Xinyan.
However, this was Morning Star City, and Bao Wuliang was the son of City Lord Bao Farah. Even if Lin Yi wanted to take care of him, it wouldn't be easy. He needed the right opportunity.
"Actually, I feel that there's something fishy about today's incident. Bao Wuliang doesn't lack spiritual jades. Even if he doesn't need such a rare treasure like the Yuan Raising Demon Golden Grass, he wouldn't just take it out to auction it, right?" Wang Xinyan said thoughtfully.
"Yes, he even tried to use it to trick Sister Xinyan into becoming his cultivation partner. Although he was chased away on the spot, he wouldn't sell it just like that, right?" Huang Xiaotao shook her head.
This thing was a fatal temptation to any Original Soul Stage cultivator. With Bao Zuoliang's womanizing personality, even if he lost to Wang Xinyan, he would definitely use it on other female students. How could he be willing to auction it? Was it really for the spiritual jades?
The son of the City Lord of Morning Star City would actually sell such a treasure for some spiritual jades? Was that even possible?
Hearing this, Lin Yi also came to a realization. When he thought about how this guy seemed to be staring at him throughout the entire auction, he suddenly felt that things weren't as simple as they seemed. It would be understandable if he was staring at Wang Xinyan, but if he was staring at him, this was a big problem.
Could it be that this fellow was coming for him? The thought flashed through Lin Yi's mind- they didn't know each other, but it wasn't impossible for them to be enemies because of Wang Xinyan. Especially with the sudden appearance of Lu Dachang, a Mountain Opening Stage powerhouse, it wouldn't make sense to say that there wasn't something going on behind the scenes.
Looks like I really have to pay more attention to this guy in the future! Lin Yi gave Bao Zuoliang a meaningful look. Although it was just a speculation, the more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. Moreover, his intuition had always been very accurate.
After Lu Dachang's farce, the rest of the auction was much calmer than before. Even if the other bidders didn't lose interest in the least, the absence of Lin Yi's participation and Lu Dachang's absence made it hard for the crowd to keep their spirits up.
And Lin Yi didn't bid anymore. It wasn't that there weren't any good things, but they were all treasures and tools that were suitable for Original Soul Stage cultivators. Lin Yi didn't really care about them. To him, if he really wanted to get some support tools, it had to be something that could at least deal with Mysterious Ascending Stage cultivators. He didn't even need to look at the others.
So from the beginning to the end, Lin Yi only flapped a pair of Ghost-eyed Eagle King wings. After that, other than the disturbance caused by the Yuan Raising Demon Golden Grass, he just stood there and watched. Wang Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao were even more straightforward than him. They just stood there and watched the show.
This was actually very normal. All their cultivation resources were personally prepared by the Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea. They didn't need to worry about it at all. Also, the Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea emphasized on cultivating the mind and self-improvement. Therefore, other than the necessary support tools for breakthroughs, they rarely relied on external items.
After the auction ended, Lin Yi didn't go to the Hong Chamber of Commerce. Instead, he accompanied Wang Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao back to the Morning Star Academy. He was now living in the East Sea Pavilion, and this was personally requested by the Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea. Of course, he couldn't ask for more.
However, before they could walk out of the first floor of the Morning Star Academy, Lu Dachang had already caught up with them. He couldn't wait to hand over the Yuan Raising Demon Golden Grass to Lin Yi. After that, he complimented Lin Yi again and again. Only then did he leave with a satisfied smile.
"This guy is so unreasonable and shameless. He's clearly an Opening Stage powerhouse, but his every move has the temperament and slyness of a nobody. He's quite an interesting person." Lin Yi couldn't help but smile as he looked at Lu Dachang's back.
Wang Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao covered their mouths and laughed. Only Lin Yi could deal with this kind of shameless powerhouse with a few words. If it were anyone else, it would be a headache. Bao Wuliang was a living example.
The three of them returned to the East Sea Pavilion. After dinner, the two girls followed the Godly Nun of the East Sea to their evening classes. Two classes in the morning and one in the evening were common practice. Lin Yi also returned to his room, but he didn't cultivate. Instead, he took out the Ghost-eyed Eagle King's wings that he'd bought during the day.
"Senior, why did you ask me to buy this thing?" Lin Yi thought for a long time, but he still couldn't figure it out. He could only ask the ghost-eyed thing for advice.
"Hehe, aren't your eyes pretty good? Even you can't figure it out?" The ghost-eyed thing kept Lin Yi in suspense.
"I really can't figure it out. It's useless for refining pills, and it's not even good for forging weapons. It looks like it can only be used as an exhibition item." Lin Yi shook his head.
"Exhibition item? Hehe, the Ghost-eyed Eagle King is a super enhanced version of the Ghost-eyed Golden Eagle. Even the Ghost-eyed Golden Eagle has a body full of treasures. Do you really think the wings of the Ghost-eyed Eagle King are useless as an exhibition item? I can only give you four words. You're really blind! "The ghost-eyed thing didn't hold back at all.
"That's four words …" Lin Yi was speechless.
"Kid, do you know what kind of existence the Ghost-eyed Eagle King is?" The ghost-eyed thing asked.
"Could it be the king of the Ghost-eyed Golden Eagles?" Lin Yi guessed based on the name. After all, the ghost-eyed thing had just said that it was a super enhanced version of the Ghost-eyed Golden Eagle.
"Wrong. The Ghost-eyed Eagle King isn't just the king of the Ghost-eyed Golden Eagles. It's the king of all eagles. Eagles have always been the king of birds, so it's not an exaggeration to call it the king of flying spiritual beasts." The ghost-eyed thing explained.
"So fierce? Then what's the Vermilion Bird? " Lin Yi couldn't help but be surprised. He always thought that if there was a king of flying spiritual beasts, the Vermilion Bird would definitely be the winner.
