However, Lin Yi relied on the Godly Pesticide Cauldron to refine pills. How could he let outsiders see it?
Hence, this method was definitely not going to work. Lin Yi pondered for a moment before he suddenly said, "I have an elder brother at Middle Island. His warship just happened to be coming from the East Continent. He should still be docked there. You can ask him."
"Since he's your elder brother, how can we trust his words? Who knows if he's helping you lie?" Wu Miao questioned anxiously.
However, Okuda ignored her. He was slightly stunned when he heard what Lin Yi said. "Oh? What warship? "
"My elder brother's name is Okuda Ba. Coincidentally, his name is similar to the owner of Okuda Island. I'm the honorary vice-captain of this warship, so he knows everything I'm doing in the East Continent," replied Lin Yi.
"Hmph. Since you're the vice-captain of his warship, of course he'll speak up for you. In the end, he doesn't have any concrete evidence, so he can only rely on a fake witness to confuse us. Do you think the owner of Okuda Island will believe you so easily?" Wu Miao snorted disdainfully. She turned to Okuda and said, "The owner of Okuda Island can't find a reliable witness, but I have one. Zheng Dongsheng, a seventh-grade pill refiner hired by the Medicine Sect, is the second best pill refiner in the Morning Star Academy. However, he has never heard of Lin Yi before. This kid's words are all nonsense. He can't be trusted!"
However, Okuda glared at him coldly. Even though he didn't seem to be leaning towards Lin Yi, he was suddenly very displeased with Lin Yi's behavior. He snorted. "Put down the pills and get lost with me. As for whether he's telling the truth or not, I'll find out once I ask him! "
"Huh?!" Wu Miao was dumbfounded. She looked at Okuda in shock. What was going on? Wasn't this acting Island Master here to stand up for him? Why did he suddenly turn to Lin Yi? This brat had already clearly said that the captain had a close relationship with him. How could this kind of witness be trusted?
Wu Miao's face turned bright red, but she didn't dare to question Okuda's words. Although she was the executive deputy island master and the other party was only the acting island master, the other party was a big shot from a super family. Whether it was in terms of strength or background, the other party was many times more powerful than her. Wu Miao didn't dare to question the other party to her face!
Wu Miao wanted nothing more than to dig a hole in the ground and hide in the face of Lin Yi's smirk. However, he had no choice but to force himself to return the pill to Lin Yi in the face of Okuda's imposing aura. Luckily, he was thick-skinned. Most people would have covered their faces and fled long ago.
Lin Yi took the pill and handed it to Tian Chan. He purposely said, "Check to see if these are the five pills we gave you. If someone is unscrupulous and replaced them with ordinary grade-seven Great Rejuvenating Pills, we will suffer a huge loss."
Wu Miao nearly vomited a mouthful of blood. If looks could kill, Lin Yi would have died a hundred times by now!
However, Okuda was standing right behind her. Unless Lin Yi agreed to inspect the pills, Wu Miao had no choice but to stay here. Otherwise, if Lin Yi turned around and made a false accusation, he would never be able to clear his name.
But if it wasn't for Okuda's words, he would've kept the five level seven Great Huanhuan Pills for himself after this whole thing was over. After all, they were of the highest quality and couldn't be bought on the market. Lin Yi's words weren't wrong, but he didn't have the chance to do so yet.
Finally, Tian Chan pretended to inspect the pills for a long time under the onlookers' watchful eyes. Wu Miao was on the verge of breaking down when he finally nodded and accepted the pills. Wu Miao felt as if he had been pardoned. He did not even wait for Okuda and hurriedly covered his face and fled. He was utterly humiliated as the executive vice island lord today!
Lin Yi must die! Wu Miao's murderous intent surged as he fled. He had no intention of taking Lin Yi's life, but Lin Yi had humiliated him so much this time. In his rage, he was determined to kill Lin Yi.
In contrast, the acting island lord, Okuda, had no intention of going back with him. He glanced meaningfully at Lin Yi before he left the Tiandan Pavilion and headed straight for the docks on Middle Island.
Arriving at the Middle Island pier, Okuda saw the ancient warship at a glance. It was impossible for such a behemoth to not attract attention when it appeared on Middle Island. After all, even the largest treasure ship on the side was several times smaller in front of it. It was an existence on a completely different level.
"It's really him!" Okuda was delighted when he saw the special symbol on the warship's mast. He landed on the deck of the warship in a flash.
"Who's there?!" The crew members looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy. Since they docked on Middle Island without prior notice, Okuda had ordered his men to shut down all the formations to avoid any misunderstandings. Otherwise, they would be in big trouble if they accidentally fired their weapons.
However, no one had expected that someone would dare to jump on the ancient warship without prior notice. Did he think that this was a cruise ship for sightseeing?
In a short while, the crew members surrounded Okuda. No one who could stand firm on the ancient warship was a weakling. Most of them were experts that Okuda had recruited from the East Continent. If they went all out, they could even fight against those sects. With these people around, even if the ancient warship had shut down its formations, it would still be difficult to deal with.
However, after they surrounded Okuda, none of them dared to act rashly. This person's imposing aura was simply too powerful. It was so powerful that they found it hard to breathe, let alone act rashly.
"Everyone, disperse. Even if all of you attack him together, you won't be a match for him. Don't go and die." Okuda's voice suddenly rang out from behind them.
"Third brother! Sure enough, it's you. How have you been all these years? "Okuda's expressionless face suddenly had a hint of excitement.
Third brother? The crew members were stunned. They looked back and forth between Okuda and Okuda with a strange gaze. Now that they looked at each other, they really did look a little alike!
"Go, go, go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Do what you need to do! Are you looking for trouble by standing here?!" Okuda scolded everyone and then looked at Okuda with a wry smile. "Second brother, how did you know that I'm here?"
He had told Lin Yi that he would soon leave Middle Island. The reason was that he really didn't want to have any contact with Okuda's family members. He didn't expect that Okuda would still come looking for him.
