Lin Yi looked at him calmly. After a while, he grinned without any sincerity. "I've already told you, he's your Martial Granduncle."
"Hmph, looks like I won't be able to hear the truth." Chen Jiu's expression changed and his aura became extremely sharp. For the first time, he released the aura of a Nascent Soul cultivator without holding back!
Xin Yijie was taken aback. Facing the opponent's imposing manner, it was extremely difficult for him, an expert in the Early-stage of Gold Core, to even stand there. If it wasn't for Lin Yi standing next to him, he might have knelt down on the spot. After all, the power and terror of a Nascent Soul Old Monster was deeply rooted in the ancient Jianghu.
"What? Is Grand Elder going to go back on his word? " Lin Yi's expression was still the same. He was not moved by the other party's aura at all. In his eyes, the so-called Yuanying stage old monster's aura was actually just like that. There was really nothing to be surprised about.
"It's not that I'm going back on my word. It's just that as the old guy of the Blue Cloud Sect in the north island, I have to keep a close eye on this kind of thing. If I let some shady people in, I'll be criticized by others." Although Chen Jiu's tone was calm, his aura became more and more intense. It was obvious that he wasn't going to let this matter rest.
To be precise, he didn't have this plan from the beginning. No matter whether Lin Yi, the Primordial Uncle-Master, was real or fake, he was destined to never let Lin Yi enter the Green Cloud Sect of the North Island as he wished. After all, two tigers couldn't share one mountain.
Apart from Chen Dongcheng's concern, the other key reason why he didn't directly turn hostile for so long was that he didn't want to take risks before he figured out the strange means that Lin Yi had displayed before.
Therefore, Chen Jiu had not been idle during this period of time. He had been searching for all sorts of information related to absorbing souls. Unfortunately, it was to no avail.
This was not strange. Even if the Primordial Underworld had always focused on the cultivation of the primordial spirit, and there were all kinds of primordial spirit techniques, such as the Soul Reaping Hand and the Primordial Spirit Devouring Technique were unheard of. After all, the strongest among them was only a Nascent Soul Old Monster. This was the limit of his level. So what if he researched more?
Without information, it meant that he had no confidence. That was why Chen Jiu had been patient. Until today, when his patience was completely exhausted.
Of course, the unknown meant risks, but Chen Jiu didn't think that he would really fall into the hands of a mere Lin Yi. At most, it would be a little troublesome.
He was a Nascent Soul cultivator. Naturally, he had the arrogance of a Nascent Soul cultivator.
"Hehe, at the end of the day, it's still the same thing. Burning the bridge after crossing the river. As a Grand Elder, you change your attitude pretty quickly." Lin Yi didn't show any anger on his face. He didn't expect the other party to talk to him about honesty. If he really foolishly believed the other party's character, there was only one explanation. He was out of his mind.
"You can say whatever you want. Since you've chosen to challenge me, you should've been prepared for this. Isn't that right? " Chen Jiu did not feel the slightest bit embarrassed. At his level, his face had long been honed to the point of perfection, so what was this?
"Hmm, no wonder you're a Nascent Soul cultivator. You look like you're going to eat me alive. Very scary." Lin Yi said with a faint smile.
"Hmph, you're about to die, but you're still quite stubborn." Chen Jiu replied with a cold snort.
Listening to the conversation between these two people, Xin Yijie on the side was completely motionless. The two big shots were ready to do it themselves. What should a small fry like him do? Should he stay and help or should he escape?
In terms of helping, Xin Yijie knew that he couldn't help at all with his little strength. It would be good enough if he stayed and didn't help. But if he just ran away like this, not to mention that it would be hard to explain to Lin Yi, he was still a Gold Core stage elder after all. He was still a person who cared about his reputation.
Glancing at Xin Yijie who was hesitating next to him, Chen Jiu suddenly said, "I heard that you also brought a few disciples from the secular world with good qualifications. If you don't want to get involved, let them hide first. Don't worry, as long as they don't make trouble in the future, I won't take revenge. I still have this little bit of tolerance. "
This was the truth. Chen Jiu went back on his words to Lin Yi because Lin Yi had his weakness. Whether it was status or strength, Lin Yi had the potential to threaten him. To a certain extent, he could be considered as someone who was qualified to be his opponent. Of course, he could do anything at this time.
But Lingshan and the others were different. Although they were all Lin Yi's people, for a Nascent Soul cultivator like Chen Jiu, it would be too narrow-minded to even care about these people.
Now, not only House Chen of the north island, even the entire Jadeon of the north island was in a state of no successor. As long as he killed Lin Yi, Lingshan and the others would be a group of dragons without a leader. They wouldn't be a threat at all. Instead, they were all good prospects. The price was just to spend some time to train them.
"No need." Lin Yi's answer was straight to the point. In fact, until now, Lingshan and the others hadn't shown themselves. They were all in their own rooms practicing in isolation, not paying attention to the outside world.
"Oh?" Chen Jiu couldn't help but be surprised. His lips curled into a mocking smile, "You're so cruel to your own men? I've really underestimated you. What a character."
The Sky-climbing Cliff was not a big place, and the area covered by the One Step to Sky-climbing Formation was even smaller. Even if it was a fight between two ordinary Gold Core experts, it could easily sweep everything away. Now, if it was a Nascent Soul old monster like Chen Jiu, he could easily destroy this place with just a wave of his hand. In other words, if these people, including Xin Yijie, stayed here, they would inevitably be implicated. With their strength, no one could leave this place alive.
From Chen Jiu's perspective, what Lin Yi did was equivalent to sentencing them to death. Cruel and merciless was absolutely appropriate.
"Cruel and merciless?" Lin Yi smiled and looked at the Nascent Soul cultivator, "I say, are you misunderstanding something, Grand Elder?"
"Oh?" Chen Jiu paused.
"I never planned to fight with you. Even if we were to fight face to face, I would at most make you follow in Chen Dongcheng's footsteps. There's no need to go through so much effort." Lin Yi said seriously.
"What?" Even Chen Jiu couldn't help but be stunned by his tone. It was true that he still couldn't understand the strange method the other party used on Chen Dongcheng, but he was a Nascent Soul old monster ah. Did this brat think that the same method would be effective on a Nascent Soul old monster? He was too naive!
