Wu Miao was so ashamed that she wanted to die under everyone's gaze. She wanted to dig a hole and hide in it. She didn't dare to say anything else and hurriedly left with her guards.
There was dead silence inside and outside of Tiandan Pavilion. Everyone looked at Lin Yi as if he was a monster. Diao Huanshan, who was in the late-stage Nascent Soul realm, came to cause trouble and was sent flying with a slap. Zhao Youque, who was in the mid-stage Mysterious Ascension realm, came to cause trouble and was sent flying with a kick. Now, Wu Miao, who was in the late-stage Mysterious Ascension realm, was also sent flying with a slap. Where did this ruthless person come from?
"From the looks of it, he's going to be invincible on Middle Island. Even Wu Miao was defeated. Who else on Middle Island can be his match except the island lord?" someone whispered.
"Island Lord Pavilion, the only person who is more powerful than Wu Miao is probably the Island Lord. However, Middle Island is a place full of hidden talents. Setting aside the Island Lord Pavilion's elders, there are many hidden experts from the various sects. There should be quite a few people who are more powerful than Wu Miao. It's just that they usually don't show their faces," analyzed someone.
"Let's not talk about those who don't show themselves. On the surface, this Lin Yi is definitely one of the top geniuses in our Middle Island. He came out of nowhere. Is he really from Dongzhou?" someone guessed.
"I don't think so. Why did I hear that Tiandan Pavilion is related to the north island?" someone immediately retorted.
"The north island? You must be joking. There are only a few experts on the north island. I think the most famous one among the younger generation is called Gong Yang or something. I've never heard of anyone called Lin Yi … "someone sneered.
"Pretending to be knowledgeable when you don't know? That's the history of the north island. Have you been to the north island in the past two years? Let me tell you. The most powerful person among the younger generation on the north island is Ram Jie. However, the most famous person on the north island in the past two years isn't Ram Jie. Instead, it's someone from the secular world. His name is Lin Yi! "a middle-aged man said with a twitch of his lips.
"Really? Is this Lin Yi really from the north island? By the way, Boss Cui, how do you know so much? "Everyone looked over.
"I don't know if this Lin Yi is the same Lin Yi. But I was sent to the north island to build a branch in the past two years. Of course, I know everything about the north island. Otherwise, I wouldn't be here," Boss Cui said with a smile.
Everyone in the crowd was in awe of Lin Yi. No matter where an expert went, they would always be respected. However, Tian Chan, Sydney, and Wei Shenjin were all deeply worried and could not bring themselves to be happy.
"What if Wu Miao doesn't give up?" Tian Chan and Sydney glanced at each other worriedly.
"Although Boss was scared shitless earlier, from what I know, Wu Miao has a gloomy personality. I don't think she'll hand over the grade-7 Great Rejuvenation Pill obediently. She might even call for reinforcements …" Wei Shenjin reminded them.
"Calling for reinforcements isn't a big deal. People who are kind will be bullied. Since they're already here, our only choice is to fight back. We can't give in at a time like this, not even a small step. Otherwise, they'll take a mile after we give them an inch, and Middle Island will no longer have a foothold." Lin Yi shook his head.
Actually, he could tell that Wu Miao wasn't someone who could be easily intimidated. The only reason he had done this was to prepare for his upcoming counterattack. If Wu Miao continued to provoke him, he could kill her without hesitation. Even the Island Lord wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
After all, he had already given in to the Island Lord Pavilion. If Wu Miao provoked him again, he would be the one who didn't know what was good for him. According to the rules of the cultivation world, Lin Yi could forgive him for killing him. If the Island Lord Pavilion deemed him as Middle Island's mortal enemy because of this, it would be inexcusable.
"But what if he finds the Island Lord of Middle Island again?" Wei Shenjin was still a little worried.
"The Island Lord of Middle Island?" Lin Yi thought back carefully. Last time when Tianxing and Nantian Aurora were fighting for the position of vice island master, he had seen the Island Master of Middle Island from afar. Although he didn't see the other party make a move, he felt that this person's strength wasn't at an extreme level. At least the aura he released wasn't at a level that could shock the world.
After his trip to the East Continent and meeting Zhuang Yifan, who was a late-stage Earth Pioneering Realm expert, Lin Yi's standards had become much higher. So what if the other party was the Island Lord of Middle Island? If he was as unreasonable as Wu Miao, Lin Yi could only use his fists to talk.
Tian Chan and Sydney were not surprised by Lin Yi's nonchalant expression. However, Wei Shenjin could not help but smile bitterly. Not only was his boss powerful, but he was also ridiculously bold. If the next person to fight was the Island Lord of Middle Island and he was as unreasonable as Wu Miao, they would be in big trouble.
Perhaps the entire power structure of Middle Island would change because of Lin Yi. Unfortunately, this was not a good thing for Lin Yi. So what if he defeated the Island Lord of Middle Island?
Although the strong ruled Middle Island, it was not so chaotic that whoever defeated the Island Lord could dominate Middle Island. This kind of situation would only happen in the chaotic waters of the South Continent. It would never happen in the orderly Middle Island. If that happened, there would only be one outcome for Lin Yi. He would be hunted down by all the sects in Middle Island!
No matter how powerful Lin Yi was, could he go against the entire Middle Island? This was clearly unrealistic. However, if Lin Yi could not defeat the Island Lord of Middle Island, he would definitely not end up well.
After thinking about it, Wei Shenjin felt the only thing he could rely on was the Island Lord of Middle Island's character. He hoped that the Island Lord was not in cahoots with Wu Miao and the others. Otherwise, there would be no way out of this predicament.
"Sigh. It would be great if Elder Master Tian was here. With him around, there would not be so many problems. Even if it really came to this, at least someone would step in and deal with it …" Wei Shenjin sighed.
"Things are unpredictable. Since Elder Master Tian is not here, we can only rely on ourselves to overcome this crisis. There is no other choice." Lin Yi glanced at Wei Shenjin and patted him on the shoulder. "You have worked hard for the past two years. However, this has nothing to do with you. You don't have to face it with us."
"Huh?" Wei Shenjin was stunned.
"To be honest, I'm not confident that I can overcome this crisis. However, it doesn't matter if I fall out with Middle Island in the end. At most, I will give up on Tiandan Pavilion and take Tian Chan and Sydney back to the north island to seek refuge. No matter how powerful those people in Middle Island are, they won't dare to go to the north island to catch me, right?" Lin Yi smiled nonchalantly.
