“You still haven’t given up even at this point. You still want to keep up the act. Your acting is not bad, but it’s a pity that it’s all in vain in front of me.” Meng jueguang pursed his lips in disdain and then said with a ferocious expression,”I say, are you out of your mind from acting cool, Lin shaoxia? or do you prefer another name, Lin er?”
Lin Yi remained unmoved and continued to mine in silence. There was no point in hiding anything now, but he wanted to see what kind of evidence Meng jueguang had in his hands.
“Hmph, you still think you can continue to hide from the world? you really won’t shed tears until you see the coffin! Fine, then I’ll show you something out of mercy and destroy your unrealistic fantasy. ” Meng jueguang coldly snorted and took out an item from his bosom. It was the spirit Jade he had exchanged from the market stall owner.
Lin Yi’s eyes scanned the spirit Jade, which had some flaws, and his eyelids twitched. It was no wonder Meng jueguang was so sure-he’d found a fatal flaw.
As for this spiritual Jade, Lin Yi didn’t pay much attention to it because of the flaws on it, but he had some impression of it. He didn’t think much of it back then.
After all, there was no way he’d guess that Meng jueguang had personally marked it, and the chances of it ending up in the hands of the original owner after the deal were almost zero. Even if something like that happened, it wouldn’t pose much of a threat to Lin Yi.
He had never imagined that such a coincidence could exist in this world. He had clearly been extremely careful in his actions, but because of this negligence that could not be called negligence, Meng jueguang had managed to catch a flaw in his identity.
Lin Yi could only smile bitterly in his heart. Life really was unpredictable.
After noticing Lin Yi’s expression, Meng jueguang smiled proudly.”Oh, it looks like Lin shaoxia has finally come to terms with reality. What do you think will happen if I give this spiritual Jade to the southern Heaven Gate and explain the whole situation to them?”
“What do you want?” Lin Yi finally opened his mouth. At this point, it was impossible to get out of this by quibbling. He had to face it directly.
“Tsk, tsk, what a terrifying gaze. Is young hero Lin desperate and ready to kill to silence me?” Meng jueguang patted his chest in feigned panic and said in an unfathomable tone,”Speaking of which, young hero Lin is an amazing person. As a mere newcomer from the secular world, you have such powerful strength. You’re so powerful that you can even kill Nan tianyong, a peak late Foundation establishment stage expert. I, Meng jueguang, am probably just a reckless clown in your eyes?”
It was a weird statement, but the truth was that after realizing who Lin Yi was, Meng jueguang’s hair stood on end as he broke out in a cold sweat.
No matter what, the fact that Lin Yi was able to kill Nan tianyong was too shocking. If he could kill a peak late Foundation Stage cultivator in seconds, then he, Meng jueguang, who was only in the mid Foundation Stage, was so weak that he didn’t even have the right for Lin Yi to fight?
He had always thought that Lin Yi was just so-so, even if he could defeat Meng Tong and Murong Zhen, he would still be a newbie. If he could fight Lin Yi himself, even a hundred Lin Yis would be dead.
Now that he thought about it, the thought was laughable. Fortunately, Lin Yi didn’t have the chance to fight him. Otherwise, with everything he’d done before, he’d be dead without a corpse if he gave Lin Yi any chance.
“Do you really want to kill me in one move to avoid future trouble?” Meng jueguang sneered and pointed at the two guards in the distance. He sneered without fear, “It’s a pity. Although this place is a dead Kuangqu, there are always more than two guards. Even if I’m not your match, can you deal with these two guards at the same time? Besides, even if you can kill these two guards at the same time, do you have the confidence to escape the joint pursuit of the spirit Jade Hall and the law enforcement Hall, young hero Lin?”
Lin Yi only smiled and shook his head, “You’re talking so much and beating around the bush. Are you really that afraid of me, senior brother Meng?”
“Afraid? Of course, I’m scared. I’m scared of you to death!” Meng jueguang pretended to be scared, but his expression changed immediately. He picked up the spiritual Jade that he was threatening Lin Yi with and snorted.”But Lin shaoxia, I advise you not to misunderstand. I’m not afraid that you’ll kill me, but I’m afraid that you won’t give me what I want and force me to go to the southern Heaven Gate. That would be too disappointing, wouldn’t it?”
As expected, he was a troublesome fellow! Lin Yi let out a breath of air,”Tell me, what do you want?”
“Not bad, not bad. It seems that Lin shaoxia is quite tactful. This is the best, so that we don’t fall out later. What I want is very simple, I think Lin shaoxia will satisfy me, right? Hmph!” Meng jueguang once again tossed the spiritual Jade in his hand.
“You want the spiritual Jade? How much is it?” Lin Yi raised an eyebrow. It wouldn’t be a problem if Meng jueguang’s appetite was limited to spiritual Jade. He could get some spiritual Jade to calm Meng jueguang down and then find a chance to get rid of him-it was a safe plan.
Unexpectedly, Meng jueguang suddenly burst out laughing. Seeing that he had attracted the attention of the two guards, he lowered his voice again and said, “You’re actually asking me how much? Lin shaoxia, are you joking? If a pile of gold or a chicken that can lay golden eggs were placed in front of you, which would you choose?”
So that was how it was! Lin Yi finally understood-with Meng jueguang’s greedy nature, he wouldn’t be satisfied with just a few pieces of spiritual Jade. It wasn’t surprising that he’d set his eyes on Lin Yi, since he’d figured out that Lin Yi had a way to recharge the Jade.
“A chicken that lays golden eggs? What do you mean by that?” Lin Yi pretended to be confused. No matter what, he couldn’t let anyone know about his Jade space.
“I just complimented you for being sensible, and now you’re putting on an act. Lin shaoxia, is it really good for you to be so uncooperative? My temper may not be as good as you think. If you make me unhappy, I might sell you to the southern Heaven Gate. I’m sure they won’t treat me badly. What do you think, young hero Lin?” Meng jueguang threatened with an unfriendly expression.
Lin Yi didn’t say anything and just looked at the man calmly, unflustered.
