9326 Chapter 9325-
Using a piece of trash to get rid of Lin Yi and maintain the truce on the surface was a good move for the Man in Black.
The biggest problem was nothing more than embarrassment, so they had to exchange hostages.
As the person involved, Kang Zhaoming didn’t know his place at all. He was flattered.
To be fair, he’d given in right in front of the guy-he could come up with a hundred reasons, and it could even be considered a trap, but he’d still given in on the surface.
If he could escape this calamity, he was already prepared to be severely punished by the mysterious man in Black. Who would have thought that he would actually receive such treatment!
The mysterious man in Black was willing to compromise with Lin Yi for him?
This was the treatment of a son!
“Let me see the Wang family head first.”
Lin Yi wasn’t that naïve. What if the other party decided to throw Wang dingtian’s body at him?
“You’re a petty person,”
The mysterious man in Black snorted and waved his hand. An invisible force carried Wang dingtian out of the castle and stopped between them.
Lin Yi’s heart dropped when he saw Wang dingtian’s half-dead face.”What did you do to him?”
“Don’t worry, he won’t die. It wasn’t even a soul-searching technique. I just looked through his memories.”
In fact, if it was possible, the mysterious man in Black would definitely use the soul-searching skill. Only then could he really squeeze out all the value from Wang dingtian. In contrast, although he could see a lot of things from reading the memory, there would be some omissions.
The third elder’s strategy could only bypass the protection talisman’s monitoring of the primordial spirit status. Once it really touched Wang dingtian’s primordial spirit, the instant death mechanism of the protection talisman would still be activated.
To put it bluntly, he could only look, not touch.
It was for this reason that Wang dingtian was lucky enough to keep his life. Otherwise, he would have been dead.
But that way, there would be no room for negotiation between the two sides-Lin Yi would flip out, and there would be no way to end this.
Hearing this, Lin Yi spread out his spirit sense to check. He found that although Wang dingtian’s condition was very bad, his body and spirit were not really injured. He would recover with some rest.
The only troublesome part was the half-activated death warrant.
“You planted the seed of instant death in him?”
Lin Yi’s face was frighteningly dark-if he’d come a second later, Wang dingtian’s soul would’ve been destroyed.
The mysterious man in Black snorted.”Don’t speak carelessly. That was his own protective talisman. It has nothing to do with me.”
“Unrelated? Doesn’t your face hurt when you say that?”
Lin Yi chuckled and raised the price.”The Wang family’s master has been tormented by you. I need you to give me an explanation.”
“What kind of explanation?”
The mysterious man in Black frowned. At first, he thought that everything was under his control, but now, it seemed that it was easier to invite a God than to send him away.
“Compensation,” Lin Yi replied sincerely.
“Compensation?”
The mysterious man in Black’s eyelids twitched, and he couldn’t help but feel a sense of absurdity. He had worked for central for so many years, but this was the first time he had heard such a justified request. This guy actually wanted to seek compensation from central on behalf of the Wang family?
Even if central was willing to pay, would the Wang family dare to take it?
“Is there a problem? The Wang family head has been tortured by you all to this extent. Medical expenses, delayed work expenses, and most importantly, mental damage compensation, don’t you all deserve compensation? I’ll say it right here, not a single cent less. ”
Lin Yi’s serious face would’ve been the same as hiring a lawyer in the common world, and he’d be settling all the scores with his lawyer.
Mental damage?!
Suppressing the absurdity in his heart, the mysterious man in Black snorted coldly,””Just tell me what you want, there’s no point in beating around the bush, my patience is limited.”
“Forget about spiritual Jade, it’s too common. Why don’t you compensate me with two of the talisman-making machines you use? the Wang family is a talisman-making family, so it’s just right.”
Lin Yi said without hesitation.
The corner of the mysterious man’s eyes twitched. He couldn’t help but want to beat this greedy bastard to death. However, for the sake of the overall situation, he forced himself to hold back.
“Kid, if you’re determined to cause trouble, this Lord will accompany you. If you don’t intend to tear up the agreement and fall out with us, then you’d better conduct yourself with dignity. If you say something reliable, this Lord might consider it.”
Lin Yi smiled to himself-the man’s words seemed tough, but he’d already exposed his weakness.
Whether it was the fact that he had taken the initiative to show up just now or the fact that he had backed down in his words, it showed that the other party was most afraid of him making a scene, especially if he entered the castle and made a scene!
The more the enemy objected, the more they had to do it. Lin Yi really wanted to do it, but he gave up on the idea after considering Wang dingtian’s safety.
At the end of the day, it wasn’t the time to completely fall out with central. It was more important to seize the opportunity to develop quickly. Some debts could be settled in the future.
“If that’s the case, then I’ll take a step back and compensate you with 100 sets of profound-grade talisman materials. The Wang clan will be able to use them.”
This was Lin Yi’s true intention. He didn’t know about the existence of the lithograph machine, but he knew that it was something that the other party couldn’t touch. It was still possible to get some materials for profound grade talismans.
This was exactly what Lin Yi needed right now.
The Wang clan had a lot of normal talisman materials. With his relationship with the Wang clan, he could get as many as he wanted. However, it was difficult to get Mystic grade talisman materials. Even the Wang clan didn’t have many in stock.
After all, Wang dingtian was the only one who could barely use it before. Even Wang dingtian had only recently broken through the barrier and was officially promoted to a black-grade talisman master. In the end, he was targeted by the central government in the blink of an eye, so naturally, he had very few relevant reserves.
With Lin Yi’s current ability, as long as he had enough materials, he could make a couple dozen Mystic level talismans and carry them with him. It would be a trump card that he couldn’t defend against.
“You’re being whimsical,”
The mysterious man in Black immediately denied it. Central was rich and overbearing, but that didn’t mean that they had unlimited resources. For things like black jade, which had an extremely low production rate, even they wouldn’t be able to collect many in a short time.
Moreover, with the talisman lithography machine in his hands, he could easily convert the materials into profound grade talismans with a high success rate. How could he give it up so easily?
And he even asked for a hundred portions!
But seeing Lin Yi’s attitude, the mysterious man took a step back just in case,””At most twenty, but if you can tell me who the black-grade talisman master behind you is, I can give you another twenty.”
