Chapter 3987: I know you
Translator: 549690339
This young master Xu’s attitude change was really fast! The crowd was speechless-it was Lin Yi who’d forced Lin Yi into a corner with one sentence, and now he was using the hierarchy to teach him a lesson. He was shameless.
However, they were just here to watch the show. They didn’t like Lin Yi to begin with, so they couldn’t just stand up for him. In fact, they wanted Lin Yi to be stomped to death by Gongyang Jie.
“Huh?” Lin Yi smiled faintly. Could it be that I heard wrong just now? could it be that the one who beckoned me to enter was not young master Xu, but some guard dog who didn’t know the rules? Or is it that the invitation you sent to me is fake? I’m not even qualified to enter, and I’m just being played by you?”
Xu lingchong was speechless. Embarrassing Lin Yi was just an idea he came up with on the spot. He thought that Lin Yi would be scared witless in front of Gongyang Jie’s overbearing power, but this guy didn’t show any fear at all. He even had the mood to mock him in a roundabout way?
Lin Yi didn’t do anything wrong-the three pavilions were all about hierarchy, but first come, first served. It was their own decision to give way to Gongyang Jie because they were afraid of him, but that didn’t mean everyone had to do it.
After a long time, Xu lingchong’s face darkened and she sneered, but she did not say anything.
As long as he didn’t open his mouth, the guards wouldn’t let Lin Yi in. This was the effect he wanted to achieve. No matter how sharp Lin Yi’s mouth was, he didn’t need to say anything. As long as he stopped them here, Gongyang Jie would come out and take care of Lin Yi.
As expected, Gongyang Jie quickly opened his mouth and the first sentence he said shocked everyone, “You’re Lin Yi?”
It wasn’t just the crowd-even Lin Yi himself was surprised. He’d only met Gongyang Jie once, and it wasn’t even considered meeting him once. After all, he’d only stood in the crowd and looked at Gongyang Jie from a distance during the pressure resistance test, and Gongyang Jie didn’t pay attention to a small figure like Lin Yi at all.
But Gongyang Jie’s words clearly meant that he’d at least heard of Lin Yi’s existence. It was an unbelievable thing in anyone’s eyes.
After thinking about it, Lin Yi felt that the only reason why the other party had heard of him was that Shangguan LAN ‘er had attracted their attention when she came to the law enforcement Hall to help him.
“That’s right, I’m Lin Yi. Greetings, Hall Master Gongyang. ” Lin Yi turned around and cupped his hands.
Gongyang Jie sized Lin Yi up and down, and this made everyone look at each other even more awkwardly. The pride of this Hall Master was well known on the entire North Island. He didn’t even bother to look at the elders of the three pavilions in front of him. What was this Lin Yi capable of to make Gongyang Jie look at him so differently?
After a while, Gongyang Jie spoke slowly with an unquestionable overbearing tone,”If it was anyone else, they’d be dead by now if they dared to block my way like this. But you, Lin Yi, I’ll let you go.”
The crowd went into an uproar again, and even Lin Yi himself was shocked beyond words.
With Gongyang Jie’s pride, he’d never lie. To be more precise, he’d never lie in front of anyone. If he said he wanted to kill someone, then even if it was Shangguan LAN ‘er’s birthday party, even if the three Pavilion Masters were here, no one could stop him. But he let Lin Yi go in front of everyone!
What kind of situation was this? Lin Yi himself was a little confused-he didn’t know Gongyang Jie at all, so why was he being treated so differently?
“You better not misunderstand what I mean. I have an old acquaintance who is under your care, so I’m only giving him face. As for you, you’re like an ant that can’t enter my eyes.” Gongyang Jie explained.
His disdain for Lin Yi was a pride that came from his bones. He didn’t hide it at all, and there was no need to hide it at all. With the difference in strength between them, Lin Yi was the same as everyone else here. They were all ants in his eyes, with no weight at all.
This feeling of being looked down on by someone was hard to come by even for someone as calm as Lin Yi, but he didn’t show it on his face.
“In that case, I have to thank that friend.” Lin Yi smiled calmly. The friend he was talking about was naturally Shangguan LAN ‘er.
After all, it was not difficult to deduce from Gongyang Jie’s words that he had let him go on purpose for Shangguan LAN ‘er’s sake.
This wasn’t anything out of the ordinary. In the entire North Island, Shangguan Tianhua was the only person who could make Gongyang Jie lower his head. As Shangguan Tianhua’s only granddaughter, Shangguan LAN ‘er was naturally important in Gongyang Jie’s eyes. The fact that Shangguan LAN’ er was able to bring Lin Yi out from the law enforcement Hall was proof of that.
As for Lin Yi and Shangguan LAN ‘er’s relationship, although he had been deliberately hiding it from Xu lingchong and the others, there was no way to hide it from this Gongyang Jie.
As the crowd had said, there were no secrets in the eyes of the law enforcement Hall, and it was even more so in the eyes of Gongyang Jie, the hall Master of the law enforcement Hall.
“I hope you didn’t find the wrong person.” Gongyang Jie’s lips curled into a playful smile.
Of course, he could guess what Lin Yi was thinking. Unfortunately, he might give Shangguan Tianhua face, but a little girl like Shangguan LAN ‘er didn’t have that much face in his eyes. It was simply laughable!
However, Gongyang Jie didn’t want to expose Lin Yi at all. He didn’t want to reveal anything to Lin Yi in the first place, and he couldn’t be bothered to talk to an ant like Lin Yi.
Lin Yi’s heart skipped a beat as he looked at Gongyang Jie’s half-smile, but he couldn’t figure out what he was up to if he didn’t explain. He turned to Xu lingchong,”I can finally go in now, right, young master Xu?”
Xu lingchong’s expression stiffened as he grinned. It was rare for him to embarrass Lin Yi in front of everyone, but he didn’t expect such a twist. Even Gongyang Jie was treating Lin Yi differently. Was the world crazy?
However, now that even Gongyang Jie had spoken, it was unrealistic for Xu lingchong to make things difficult for Lin Yi. Otherwise, it would be a big joke if he made Gongyang Jie unhappy instead of Lin Yi.
Even though Xu lingchong was arrogant, he was not a fool. Even his grandfather, Xu Yuanzheng, the third elder of the rising Sky Pavilion, did not have much status in Gongyang Jie’s eyes. He, the young master of the rising Sky Pavilion, was not even worth a fart. They were on completely different levels, so it was better for him not to invite ridicule on himself.
