Judging from their unfriendly gazes, if Lin Yi were to say a few more words, they might really make a move.
Lin Yi was speechless. This was a classic case of the King of Hell being easy to see but the little devil being difficult to deal with. They had no idea who Lin Yi was. It would have been strange if they had paid any attention to him just because he said he knew the commander.
"How about this, you guys go find the spirit beast commander of Wai Arc City. I'll talk to him directly. Is that alright?" Lin Yi used his divine sense to search for the location of the spirit beast commander as he spoke. Unfortunately, there were some buildings in Wai Arc City that blocked out divine sense, so he really couldn't find that fellow for a while.
The spirit beast clan probably had a way to communicate with each other. If these two guards were willing to help, it would be much faster and more convenient than if Lin Yi were to go alone.
"Who do you think you are? You said you wanted to find our commander, and he did it for you? " One of the guards sneered. He seemed to think that Lin Yi was indulging in fantasy. After shaking his head, he added, "Also, this is a prison. It is independent and not under the jurisdiction of the commander. Even if you really find the commander, you can forget about taking him away without paying a ransom!"
Lin Yi was slightly taken aback. Did he really have to bring up the name of the new Green Dragon Elder? Actually, 50 million spirit jade was no big deal to him, but using it to ransom those two annoying Zheng family bastards was really meaningless!
"Boss, what's the point of saying so much? Just watch me kill these two fellows. They aren't very capable, but they talk big. I hate these kinds of people the most!" Langouzha came over and said with a mischievous smile. Needless to say, this fellow was definitely itching for a fight. Lin Yi was also tired of carrying around such a thing that wished for the whole world to be in chaos.
The two guards simultaneously took half a step back and looked at Langouzha warily. They almost sounded the alarm because the faint aura emanating from Langouzha's body made them feel a sense of danger.
"Go away, what are you trying to do!" Lin Yi turned to glare at Langouzha. Did he really think that the spirit beasts were easy to bully in Wai Arc City? Perhaps the new Azure Dragon had already left, but who knew if there were any Earth Opening Stage or even Sea Splitting Stage cultivators among the spirit beasts?
"If you have Spiritual Jades, then redeem him. If you don't, then hurry up and leave. Don't talk nonsense here. Otherwise, we won't be polite!" The two guards looked at each other. Then, one of them roared in a threatening manner.
They had originally wanted to take advantage of Lin Yi and the others, but after realizing that their strength was far from enough, they could only give up on this idea.
It wasn't that they couldn't recruit experts, but when the spirit beasts had taken control of Wai Arc City, they had set very strict rules. If they casually issued a warning, they would have to bear the consequences. Therefore, as long as Lin Yi and the others didn't make a move, the two guards could do nothing.
As they spoke, Lin Yi's divine sense detected traces of the spirit beast commander. He seemed to have received a report that Lin Yi had returned to Wai Arc City, so he had rushed over. Ordinary matters didn't need to be rushed, but if Lin Yi and the spirit beasts got into a conflict, he would be put in a difficult position.
After all, this was a person that even the Azure Dragon Elder valued, so the spirit beast commander didn't dare slight him. As long as Lin Yi was in Wai Arc City, he had to receive the best treatment.
"Don't be anxious. Your commander will be here soon. Let's talk about this later!" Lin Yi waved his hands and smiled. The spirit beast commander was extremely fast. In a few breaths' time, he would be here.
"I already told you that we are not under the commander's control. Even if he comes, he can forget about interfering with our affairs. Furthermore, if you say he will come, does that mean he will? I even said that I could send him flying with a fart! "One of the guards was too nervous and blurted out something he would regret later.
"Why don't you try farting? Let's see if I will be sent flying by you!" An ice-cold voice descended from the sky. It was the spirit beast commander of Wai Arc City.
The speed at which he had arrived was faster than Lin Yi had expected. Clearly, he had used some tricks along the way. This was enough to prove how important Lin Yi was to the spirit beast commander.
"Commander!" The two guards jumped in fright and hurriedly stood at attention and bowed. Although the spirit beast commander wasn't in charge of the prison, the two of them were just prison guards and couldn't compare to the spirit beast commander's authority.
If he really wanted to deal with them, he could just issue a transfer order and have them serve under him. Then, he could deal with them however he wanted. It would be a piece of cake.
The spirit beast commander, who had appeared like a ghost, looked coldly at the two guards. When he turned his head, it was as if a spring breeze had brushed past his face. He put on a genial smile.
"Why did Master Lin come to such a lousy place? If there's anything, just let me know. I will naturally take care of everything!" The spirit beast commander smiled and cupped his fists in greeting to Lin Yi. Whether it was because of Lin Yi's status as a strategic partner of the Central Chamber of Commerce or because of Elder Green Dragon's high regard for him, the spirit beast commander had to humble himself.
"Commander, you are too courteous. It's just a small matter. The people from Middle Island's Pill Hall have some relations with me. They might have been imprisoned because of some misunderstanding, so I wanted to come and take them away." Lin Yi smiled faintly and cupped his fists in return.
"I see. It's indeed a small matter. If there's something like this in the future, Master Lin can just inform me to handle it at any time. There's no need for you to make a trip personally." The spirit beast commander laughed and waved his hand. Giving this kind of favor to Lin Yi at no cost was simply a matter of benefit and no cost at all. Not only could he get closer to Lin Yi, he did not lose anything. It was really — perfect!
"Didn't the two of you hear what I said? Hurry up and invite Master Lin's friends out! " The spirit beast commander turned to look at the two guards. His face became cold again. As he opened and closed his eyes, the majesty of a superior was instantly revealed.
"Sir Commander, we can't make the decision on this matter! The prisoners in the prison can't be released at will! " The two guards looked at each other. In the end, it was the unlucky guy who could make the spirit beast commander fly with a fart. He could not take it anymore and braced himself to speak.
"Hmm? What did you say? I didn't hear you clearly. Say it again! " The spirit beast commander's eyes widened and his aura surged. He was the dignified spirit beast commander of Wai Arc City. When he opened his mouth to say that he wanted to release a few insignificant people, he was actually rejected by the prison guards? How could he step down now?
Furthermore, this was in front of Lin Yi. He had just guaranteed that it was a small matter, but he was immediately slapped in the face by two insignificant people. How could he continue to mingle in the future?
