"But you are also trapped here and can't get out. This is not a good idea, right?" Duan Muyu frowned. She also thought that the sect's higher-ups might take the initiative to let Lin Yi out, but this was unlikely. Perhaps in the eyes of those people, Lin Yi was a bargaining chip sent to their door. Exchanging the Divine Knowledge Grass for Lin Yi's freedom, this kind of proposal might have already been put forward for discussion.
Lin Yi glanced around with an indifferent expression: "It's okay, you don't have to mind."
This was the truth. He was now a genuine Yuan Shen of the Mysterious Ascending Stage. Even the One Step To Heaven Array couldn't trap him. This unknown array naturally couldn't trap him either. After all, the One Step To Heaven Array was personally set up by the legendary Great Emperor. No matter how great the background of this array was, it would be difficult to match it.
"How can I not mind …" Duan Muyu smiled bitterly, but then she thought about it. In the River of Spiritual Knowledge, even a terrifying existence like Jiu Ying was subdued by Lin Yi. This might really be a small matter for him. Thinking of this, she suddenly felt a lot more at ease.
"Let's not talk about this. Anyway, we have nothing to do. Why don't we do something?" Lin Yi suddenly suggested.
While they were talking, he had carefully explored the array that trapped the two of them. It was not much different from the One Step To Heaven Array. It was a relatively tricky array, but with his strength, it would not be a problem for him to get out. If he spent a little more effort, he could even uproot this array. However, that would be equivalent to completely falling out with Ye Ling Sect. Judging from Duan Muyu's attitude, she probably did not want to go to that step. Otherwise, she would not have stayed here and done nothing. She even deliberately left the Divine Knowledge Grass untouched.
"Do something?" Seeing Lin Yi's gaze falling on her, even Duan Muyu could not help but shiver. She was a man, but after all, she was still a girl. Especially in this situation, a man and a woman alone in a room, anyone would have a perverted thought …
"It's rare to see you, I want to take this opportunity to help you break through to the Jiedan stage, and also help you refine the Spiritual Awareness Grass. It's a small gift, why are you blushing?" Lin Yi asked curiously. He had been with Duanmu Yu for a while now, and this manly woman didn't blush often.
"Uh …" Duan Muyu suddenly felt embarrassed. Just now, the scene in the mirror world where she was hugged by Lin Yi in a disheveled state unconsciously appeared in her mind. At that time, she acted extremely carefree, but now that she thought about it, she inevitably felt a little embarrassed, especially in this kind of situation.
At this moment, the metal door suddenly opened, and a young man with a slightly tanned face stood outside. Without Duanmu Yu's reminder, Lin Yi only needed a glance to recognize him. This person was Qiu Mingchong.
"The Sect Master and the Elders asked me to come over and ask, what is Eldest Senior Sister's decision?" Qiu Mingchong's eyes fell on Lin Yi.
"No." Duanmu Yu's answer was simple and direct.
Qiu Mingchong was not surprised by this. He had come over to ask the same question every few days, and now he was used to it, but this time he did not turn around and walk away. Instead, he continued, "Okay, but the higher-ups specifically told me another thing. Eldest Senior Sister, you said before that there was only half of the Spiritual Awareness Grass in your hand, so the remaining half of the Spiritual Awareness Grass is most likely with Lin Yi. Since he has come to our Ye Ling Sect this time, I hope he can return it to its rightful owner."
"Return it to its rightful owner?" Lin Yi was not surprised that the other party wanted him, but returning it to its rightful owner, what did this mean?
"Yes, the Spiritual Awareness Grass has been a treasure of our Ye Ling Sect since ancient times, and it is only clearly recorded in the ancient books of our Ye Ling Sect, so is there anything wrong with saying that it should be returned to its rightful owner?" Qiu Mingchong said.
Lin Yi was stunned for a long time when he heard this. Was it really appropriate to say such a shameless statement so openly?
If there is information about the Spiritual Awareness Grass in your family's ancient books, then all the Spiritual Awareness Grass in the world can only belong to your family. What kind of weird logic was this?
Duan Muyu, who was on the side, blushed a little and held his forehead. Even in his own family, these words were at most a joke, but now they were directly used to mock Lin Yi. Wasn't he ashamed?
"The Sect Master said that Ye Ling Sect and the Blue Cloud Sect of the North Island have always had a good relationship. He doesn't want to hurt the relationship between the two sects because of this matter, so as long as you can hand over the Spiritual Awareness Grass, then nothing will happen, and we will naturally treat you well and thank you." Qiu Mingchong continued to add.
"That's …" Lin Yi thought about it and concluded, "The reason you gave me isn't very flattering, but I get the gist of it. I'm in a situation where I'm being held captive, and the only way to redeem myself is to hand over the spirit grass, is that what you mean?"
Duan Muyu almost laughed out loud, and Qiu Mingchong's face was a little ugly, but he still nodded and said, "Your Excellency must be joking, but in general, you are not wrong. I believe that Your Excellency should be a smart person who knows how to adapt to the situation, right?"
"Of course I know how to adapt to the situation. Unfortunately, the half of the Spiritual Awareness Grass that you want is not with me at all. I gave it to Bing Wuqing. If you want it, you might as well go directly to Snow Sword Sect to find him. Anyway, it's not far from here." Lin Yi said casually.
"What?" Qiu Mingchong was shocked when he heard this, and his face was obviously filled with disbelief. "How can such an important thing as the Spiritual Awareness Grass be given to an unrelated outsider? Your Excellency must be joking."
He had only heard in private that Lin Yi had obtained the Spiritual Awareness Grass, and Duan Muyu had gotten half. As for the specific situation, he was not clear about it. Naturally, he thought that Lin Yi had kept the other half for himself. The two of them had been together since the Primordial Trial, and they were a living pair. After obtaining the Spiritual Awareness Grass by chance, they divided it in half. This kind of thing could be said to be logical.
Unfortunately, Qiu Mingchong did not know that the most important thing about the Spiritual Awareness Grass was not the Spiritual Awareness Grass, but the huge Spiritual Awareness Grass root. Not only did he not know about this, but even the senior members of Ye Ling Sect did not know about this. After all, there were no records of this in the ancient books.
Otherwise, Qiu Mingchong would have asked for the Spiritual Awareness Grass root, and would not have stared at a mere half of the Spiritual Awareness Grass.
"Am I familiar with you?" Lin Yi asked.
"No … not familiar …" Qiu Mingchong was stunned, and his face was inexplicable.
