"If he's really making trouble out of nothing, then it's only right for you to kill him." Okuda nodded faintly. This was indeed the unspoken rule of Heaven Stage Island. For example, if you went to another sect and behaved atrociously, then they could justifiably kill you, and even retaliate against your sect was a matter of course.
Of course, Lin Yi's words were a little overboard when it came to shops. After all, shops were open for business. They were completely different from sects, which were purely private territories. It was a little alarmist to apply the sect's practices to shops, but the logic was similar.
However, Okuda quickly added, "But as far as I know, Vice Island Master Wu isn't making trouble out of nothing. He brought his men to seal Tiandan Pavilion because your Tiandan Pavilion smuggled and sold seventh-grade pills from the East Continent. According to the agreement between the East Continent and Middle Island, this is a serious crime."
Lin Yi laughed when he heard that. "Hehe, this is a groundless accusation. Do you have any proof, Island Master Okuda?"
"My surname is Okuda." Okuda frowned and corrected him. He then turned to look at Wu Miao. "Vice Island Master Wu, since you're the one who exposed this matter, do you have any proof?"
Okuda? Lin Yi was stunned. This was the first time he had heard of this surname. However, he found it strange when he first heard about Okuda. Now that he heard about this unpopular surname, he suddenly thought of someone else. This was the only family with such an unpopular surname, even in the five great Heavenly Islands. Could it be …
"Of course I have proof!" Wu Miao sneered and jumped out. She was holding the five seventh-grade Great Rejuvenating Pills confiscated from Tiandan Pavilion. She handed them to Okuda and said, "Island Master Okuda, these are the pills that Tiandan Pavilion is selling. They are seventh-grade pills of the highest quality. If they weren't smuggled from the East Continent, where did they come from?"
"That's right. To be able to refine a seventh-grade Recover Pill of such quality, even if he isn't a Profound-grade Alchemist, he must be one of the best seventh-grade Alchemists. Logically speaking, it's hard to find an alchemist of this level outside of the East Continent." Okuda nodded. He believed Wu Miao's words a lot when he saw the pills because it made perfect sense.
Even so, Okuda didn't jump to a conclusion. Common sense was common sense, but he had seen many things that were beyond common sense. Lin Yi was able to injure Wu Miao, who was in the late stage of the Profound Ascension realm, when he was only in the early stage of the Profound Ascension realm. That in itself was beyond common sense.
"Okuda Master is right, but there are exceptions to everything. It's hard to find a refiner like this outside of East Continent, but it doesn't mean that there aren't any. Grandmaster Zhang Liju isn't from East Continent, so even he can't make this pill?" Lin Yi asked.
"Grandmaster Zhang Liju is a publicly acknowledged elixir god. Naturally, it's a different story. Are you trying to say that these pills came from Grandmaster Zhang Liju?" Wu Miao mocked. She smiled coldly. "Let's not talk about whether or not you have the ability to get Grandmaster Zhang Liju's pills. From what I know, it's been a long time since Grandmaster Zhang Liju made pills in Nakajima. Even if you really have the ability, why don't you have his consciousness imprint on these pills?"
Even high-level refiners had consciousness imprints. It was impossible for a elixir god like Zhang Liju to not have one. His consciousness imprint was widely known. Even people like Okuda and Wu Miao, who weren't refiners, could tell.
Of course, they didn't need to do so in this case. There was no imprint on the pills at all.
"First of all, I never said that these pills came from Grandmaster Zhang Liju. That's what you're thinking. Of course, there's nothing you can do about your low IQ. But you can eat some retarded pills. Perhaps you can fight poison with poison," Lin Yi suggested with a serious face.
"You!" Wu Miao's already swollen face contorted even more. How dare this guy mock her in front of Okuda! How dare he?! She didn't know what retarded pills were, but she was sure that it wasn't anything good.
Lin Yi ignored her and continued. "Second, these pills don't have any consciousness imprints on them. Vice Island Master Wu, which eye of yours saw me smuggling them? Can't I make them myself? "
"You? How is that possible? If you could make pills like this, would you still have your current identity? "Wu Miao snorted.
"Then what identity should I have? I'd like to hear your opinion, Vice Island Master Wu, "Lin Yi asked.
"Hmph, if you could make a level seven Great Huan pill, you'd be the head refiner of East Continent's Huangjie Academy. You wouldn't be running a small pill shop like this. Even if you're bluffing, can't you be a little more reliable? Do you really think you can fool me and Okuda with such a ridiculous lie? "Wu Miao sneered.
Okuda stood by the side without saying a word. However, it was clear from his suspicious gaze that his thoughts were similar to Wu Miao's. At the very least, the first half of Wu Miao's words sounded reasonable. However, Okuda didn't rule out the possibility of accidents, so he kept observing Lin Yi to see how Lin Yi would respond.
"You think it's ridiculous? Apart from the fact that you're short-sighted, there's nothing else you can say." Lin Yi glanced at him and sneered. "Since you're willing to be a lackey for the Medicine Sect, you must have heard about me from Zhao Youque, right? My identity is higher than you think. I already told you that I'm the master of Morning Star Academy's top pill refiner, Qing Danzi."
Wu Miao sneered. Just as she was about to retort, Okuda suddenly said, "Who can prove it?"
Lin Yi was delighted to hear that. The fact that Okuda asked this meant that he was seriously considering the possibility of what he said. At the very least, he wasn't like Wu Miao, who scoffed at his words. Okuda was reasonable, so it was no wonder he had such an imposing aura.
It was easy for Lin Yi to prove this. He just needed to make another supreme grade seventh level Great Revitalizing Pill, and he'd be able to prove everything. But it wasn't that simple.
