It actually wasn't hard to guess General Yi's identity. If it had been a normal student who was bluntly told by General Yi that he wanted to take them as his student, they would probably have already jumped for joy by now.
But Wang Ling didn't immediately agree. Right now, continuing to remain silent was probably the best option. Actually, Wang Ling had thought before that it wouldn't be a bad idea to find a shifu to cover up his identity. But General Yi was, in the end, an old senior in the circle, and also one of the Ten Founding Generals of Huaxiu nation who had shaken the four cities. It would really be too eye-catching to be around such a person.
All in all, Wang Ling summed up his encounter with General Yi this time as a mistake … he should have been more careful.
However, with this old senior at his side, Wang Ling's plan to go all out and look for the old devil was completely ruined. He absolutely couldn't expose his true strength.
For the time being, he would wait and see what General Yi's next move would be …
Wang Ling sighed helplessly in his heart as the background music of "The Helplessness of the Immortal King" rang out in his head.
However, Wang Ling's silence didn't make the old man in front of him feel the slightest bit disappointed; instead, it piqued his interest even more.
General Yi's eyes were fixed on Wang Ling, and there seemed to be light in them. "Sure enough, I wasn't wrong about you. If a normal student heard that I was taking in a disciple, they would probably jump for joy, right?"
Wang Ling: "…"
General Yi: "You're very good! You've successfully attracted my attention! "
"…" Wang Ling already didn't have the energy to ridicule this strong sense of a domineering CEO meeting the heroine of a romance novel.
General Yi stepped forward and put one hand on Wang Ling's shoulder. "I don't think you know me well enough. Do you want to make some big news with me and try to improve our relationship? Don't worry, it won't affect your chances in the survival contest. Since I've taken a fancy to you, I'm going to give you some good luck. As long as you're willing to follow me, I promise you great luck and you'll get chicken dinner tonight. It won't take up too much of your time! "
Wang Ling once again chose to remain silent. "…"
Now … what other choice did he have?
General Yi actually wasn't very tall, and actually looked about the same height as Jingke. In order to put his hand on Wang Ling's shoulder, his entire body floated up.
Wang Ling was a little astonished. To be able to directly float in the air without the help of a magic artifact, he was already a True Immortal.
"I'm going to capture an old enemy. This time, I must capture him with my own hands."
Saying that, General Yi looked in one direction and said lightly, "Guess where he's hiding?"
…
…
As an old rival of Devil Emperor Gua Pi, it could be said that General Yi's understanding of the old devil was completely beyond Wang Ling's imagination.
"Based on what I know of him, given his character, if I can't detect his scent on the surface of the small world, then there's only one possibility left …" General Yi looked deeply at the ground under his feet.
Three minutes later, he dug a pit in the ground with his bare hands that could accommodate at least three people.
General Yi: "I'm guessing he's definitely gone underground, and he's using a magic treasure to hide his aura."
"…" Wang Ling looked at the huge pit under his feet, a little puzzled in his eyes. So, why did he have to use his bare hands?
"This guy is very cautious. If he uses spirit talismans like the Earth Expansion Spell, even the slightest fluctuation will immediately attract his attention. So at this time, choosing to use his bare hands is the best method. "
Saying that, General Yi jumped into the pit lightly. When he was done, he even waved at Wang Ling, who was outside the pit. "Come in, if you don't come in, how can I take you flying?"
Wang Ling looked indifferently at the deep pit, but in the end still jumped in. After all, this was an invitation from an old senior, and it wasn't good for him to refuse.
General Yi was famous, and to be honest, Wang Ling was quite nervous.
Wang Ling felt that the key now was to stabilize the rhythm and do his best to behave like a junior, and be a little more natural …
Unless it was absolutely necessary, Wang Ling really didn't want to directly knock this old senior out and then forcibly erase his memory. If a senior of this realm really did that, he would definitely give himself away.
…
…
As soon as Wang Ling stepped into the pit, General Yi used a spell to fill it up. This completely turned the place into an enclosed space.
Wang Ling was actually quite curious as to what this old senior was going to do next.
General Yi's body rippled with spirit energy, and a wisp of protective immortal light lingered around him, completely illuminating the enclosed space. He carefully sensed the old devil's aura and smiled confidently. "As I expected, this guy has been hiding underground. Furthermore, he's now planning to absorb the vitality of the thousands of students here to fill up his skeleton and rebuild his body, so that he can resurrect himself. "
Wang Ling was a little surprised. It sounded like this was the old devil's private plan, but General Yi actually knew about it?
"Are you wondering why I even know about this?" General Yi chuckled.
"Back then, this old man carelessly messed things up and sealed himself in the stone ghost mask. Although he managed to escape the strongest wave of arrest organized by the country at that time, he still managed to escape. Although he managed to escape the strongest wave of capture organized by the state at the time, he used the stone ghost mask to escape by accident.
"However, he would never have expected that the Palm Sword that I used to attack him at the end had a locator chip in it, which directly hit his soul. So all these years, I've been secretly monitoring his movements … "
Wang Ling: "…"
"But unfortunately, the proposal to capture him had just been submitted to the higher-ups. This old guy was actually so savage that he directly attacked those twenty or so delivery riders first. Because of this, considering the corresponding danger to society, the capture was brought forward. "
General Yi continued, "I've already personally called the insurance department to deal with those innocent delivery riders quickly through the green channel, and rebuild their bodies as soon as possible while their souls are still intact. As for the array that the old guy is preparing to absorb vitality, it was in fact impossible from the start.
"The most important part of the array to absorb vitality and rebuild the body is the skeleton. That Ancient Almighty's skeleton is in fact fake. "
Wang Ling: "…"
General Yi: "When our Huaxiu nation was founded back then, we were best at making knockoffs and imitations, the kind that could do anything."
Wang Ling: "…"
"So the skeleton that the old guy found is actually a high imitation that I specially prepared for him … When I took it out back then, I was almost criticized."
General Yi heaved a deep sigh. "Do you know that crystal coffin in Huaxiu nation's National Palace? Every year, the school should organize a group of people to worship this senior … In fact, the skeleton in the crystal coffin is a high imitation. The real skeleton has already been hidden. "
Crystal coffin?
Wang Ling: "…" The skeleton in this crystal coffin belonged to Huaxiu nation's founding ancestor!
General Yi: "Looking at your expression, I'm sure you've already guessed it. Hm … I took the high imitation skeleton that the old guy is using now from the crystal coffin. "
