"Okay, I won't stand on ceremony with you, Captain." Lin Yi nodded with a smile and was then escorted off the battleship by Okuda.
Looking at the scene at Middle Island's pier, Lin Yi could not help but sigh. The last time he came to Middle Island, his knowledge was not as vast as it was now. At that time, he naively thought that Middle Island was the Supreme Land and the center of the five Heavenly Islands.
However, now it seemed that although Middle Island was the center, it was only the center in terms of geographical location. Its strength and status might not be much higher than that of North Island and West Island. Compared to the unpredictable East Continent and the South Continent with the Spirit Beasts, Middle Island was still far behind.
To put it bluntly, the middle island was only treated as the headquarters by many chambers of commerce because of its excellent geographical location. It wasn't because of how powerful the people there were. Only the Eastern Continent, which was filled with experts, could truly represent the peak of the Heaven-Stage Island.
But then again, although Middle Island's strength was far inferior to the East Continent, it was still the headquarters of the major Chambers of Commerce. It was also the transportation hub that connected the four Heavenly Islands of the North, South, East, and West. In terms of prosperity, it was not inferior to the main cities of the academies in the East Continent.
Walking through the commercial district of Middle Island, Lin Yi unknowingly arrived at the market street. He was worried about Tian Chan and Sydney, so Tiandan Pavilion was naturally his first stop.
As the owner of the Heavenly Elixir Pavilion, Lin Yi felt a little guilty at the moment. It had been more than two years since he left last time, and he hadn't come back even once in such a long time. He was really thorough in leaving the responsibility to others. If it weren't for his own people like Tian Chan and Xue Li, the entire Heavenly Elixir Pavilion might have changed hands a long time ago.
As a hands-off manager, Lin Yi was relaxed, but Tian Chan and Sydney suffered. Although they had the support of people like The Will of Heaven, they were women after all. It was not easy for them to establish a foothold in Middle Island. Moreover, Lin Yi disappeared from time to time, causing the supply of elixirs to be unable to keep up. The two of them were troubled because of this.
It could be said that Tian Chan and Sydney had made great contributions to Tiandan Pavilion. In contrast, Lin Yi did not do much for them. If he did not feel guilty, he could only be said to be too heartless and irresponsible.
Fortunately, they finally returned to Middle Island this time. Lin Yi could more or less make up for it. In fact, for the two women, as long as he appeared, it was a big surprise.
However, before Lin Yi walked to the front, he saw from a distance that the entrance of Tiandan Pavilion was bustling with a large circle of people. Lin Yi was suddenly stunned. After such a long time, Tiandan Pavilion was still so crowded?
When Tiandan Pavilion first opened, because there were all kinds of elixirs of the best quality, the business was extremely hot, just like the scene in front of him. However, even at that time, it did not last long. After a few days, the scene was not so hot anymore. Could it be that Tian Chan and Ning Xuefei were good at managing, and after more than two years of hard work, they had completely established the reputation of Tiandan Pavilion?
But it should not be so popular, right? Lin Yi could not help but feel a little strange. Although Tian Chan could also refine elixirs, she could basically only provide elixirs of high quality. As for the really popular elixirs of the best quality, he still needed to provide them.
However, even if he regularly delivered elixirs to Heavenly Dan Pavilion, due to the fact that he had to travel a lot of times, he could not guarantee the quality of the elixirs. Under normal circumstances, he would only sell a limited amount of elixirs. It was already good enough for Tian Chan and Xue Li to retain their popularity, but it was impossible for them to sell so well. After all, if so many people could buy the elixirs, the elixirs that Lin Yi delivered regularly would not last for more than a few days.
It was not desirable to have a flash in the pan, and a steady stream was the king's way. Once the supply of the best elixirs was cut off, the loss could not be made up by the hot sales in one or two days. At that time, the reputation and reputation of the entire Tiandan Pavilion would be damaged.
There must be something going on here! Lin Yi suppressed the curiosity in his heart and immediately went over quietly. Sure enough, this scene was not because the business of Tiandan Pavilion was booming, but because there was a villain playing tricks.
"Everyone, don't miss it. Our Medicine Sect has invited a Senior Alchemist from the East Continent, and he can refine sixth-grade elixirs on the spot. Everyone, if you are interested, hurry up and take a look. If you are late, you won't be able to line up!" The owner of the voice was a familiar face. It was the deputy manager of the Medicine Sect, Diao Huanshan.
Seeing this, Lin Yi frowned slightly. When the Tiandan Pavilion had just opened for business, this Diao Huanshan had come to make trouble, but at that time, The Will of Heaven was present and dealt with him casually. He did not expect this clown to jump out again today. Was he not afraid of attracting The Will of Heaven again?
Although he felt strange, Lin Yi did not show up directly. With his current vision, he naturally looked down on such a small character, but this matter was related to the reputation of Tiandan Pavilion. Before the matter was clarified, he was not ready to act rashly.
"Medicine Sect? Isn't this Tiandan Pavilion? "A new onlooker in the crowd asked in a low voice.
"My dear friend, where are you from? Medicine Sect and Tiandan Pavilion are mortal enemies. Don't you know this? "A busybody next to him curled his lips and said.
"That's right. Because of the big gimmick of the highest grade elixir, Tiandan Pavilion has stolen a lot of business from the Medicine Sect in the past two years. Now, this deputy manager of the Medicine Sect is obviously going to steal back the source of customers! Tsk tsk, even a sixth-grade elixir can be refined on the spot. That Senior Alchemist from the East Continent is amazing. Maybe he is the legendary seventh-grade alchemist. After all, an ordinary sixth-grade alchemist would not dare to do this! "Another onlooker explained in admiration.
"This time, Tiandan Pavilion is really going to be defeated. Although it has all kinds of highest grade elixir, after all, the grade is not high. At most, it is only fifth-grade. Even if the sixth-grade elixir is not of the highest quality, it is still much more popular than Tiandan Pavilion! What's more, after a certain level, everyone has to consider the sixth-grade elixir. Those fourth-grade and fifth-grade elixir are useless no matter how good the quality is. "The onlookers sighed.
"In the end, it is still because of the lack of foundation. Tiandan Pavilion has only been established for two years, while Medicine Sect has been around for hundreds of years. They can easily invite a senior alchemist from the East Continent to hold the fort. What does Tiandan Pavilion have?" Someone said disdainfully.
