"You want to destroy the evidence? What a good plan!"
Lin Yi said indifferently, and Chang laiting froze in his spot, not knowing what to do.
If he was really convicted of destroying the corpse, it was hard for Chang laiting to imagine what kind of ending he would have. The assassins from hidden death sect did not seem to be easy to deal with ...
"I said, I didn't kill Lin Yi, he died on his own, it has nothing to do with me! So there's no such thing as destroying the corpse!"
Old man beiming was very annoyed. He didn't get to eat the mutton and got himself into trouble. What bad luck!
"I can't make the decision on this matter, let's ask the elder to make a decision!"
Lin Yi's cold eyes swept over the two before he cupped his fists to old man beiming. "I'll go and invite the elder over. This place must be kept as it is, there can't be any mistakes!"
Old man beiming's wizened face twitched a few times before he shot Chang laiting a look. "That's good too, let Chang laiting accompany you! I'll definitely protect the scene and wait for the elder to come and check. "
Upon receiving old man beiming's signal, Chang laiting immediately understood.
Now, they were still considered as new members in hidden death sect. If they were to be casually turned around by this assassin in green, they might be killed.
And so, they couldn't let Lin Yi go alone when they went back to invite the white-robed elder. One of them had to go with him.
Bringing the body back with them was the best option, but Lin Yi's order to protect the scene made it impossible. Old man beiming was afraid that something might happen, so he had to stay behind and guard the place.
Poor old man beiming didn't realize that he'd fallen right into Lin Yi's trap!
Lin Yi laughed inside, but didn't show it on his face. He nodded faintly,"Alright. Changlai ting, come with me to invite the elders. I'll leave this place to Hall Master beiming to take care of. Don't make any more mistakes!"
Old man beiming was secretly angry. I'm just a Hall Master. Do you have to look down on me like this?
However, the situation was more pressing than the person, so he could only pinch his nose and reluctantly agree.
Lin Yi turned around and left with Chang laiting, quickly returning to the cave.
However, Lin Yi deactivated the thousand changes of wood forest before he met the elder. The body disappeared without a trace. He wondered what old man beiming's expression was like.
Thinking about it, he was really looking forward to seeing that ghostly appearance! Would the old man run away because of this?
Lin Yi's eyes flickered, wondering if it'd be better for him if old man beiming ran.
Before he could finish, the two had already returned to the cave. Lin Yi quickly went up and bowed.
"Elder, Lin Yi's dead ... There was only the head of the beiming branch there. I was about to go arrange a mission with changlai ting, but I heard Lin Yi's screams right after I left. When I went back, Lin Yi was already dead!"
Lin Yi was pretty smooth with his words, but it was a little awkward to keep saying that he was dead.
"He's dead?"
The white-robed elder seemed to be taken aback, but he didn't mind. He'd already expected this when he handed Lin Yi to old man beiming,"Is Hall Master darknorth's punishment too severe?"
Although the white-robed elder didn't mind, he still had to ask. Of course, he wouldn't pursue the matter in the end. He would pretend to be kind and let old man beiming go. Therefore, it would be a waste of resources if he let it go now.
"The head said he didn't do anything, Lin Yi died after screaming."
Lin Yi replied seriously, as if he wasn't biased at all, as if he were just stating the truth."This subordinate does not dare to handle this matter on his own, so I have asked Hall Master beiming to remain at the scene and maintain the original state. After that, I brought Chang laiting over to invite elder to take a look."
Elder Bai Yi frowned. If Lin Yi died, then so be it. Although he was an enemy of hidden death sect, it was just a mission. He was a little unwilling to leave the cave to deal with such a small matter.
However, this matter involved old man beiming. No matter what, he was still an alchemy Grandmaster and the head of the newly established alchemy Hall. It wasn't a bad idea to take this opportunity to make him submit.
"Chang laiting, what he said is the truth, right? Are there any discrepancies?"
The white-robed elder turned to Chang laiting, feigning concern.""If there's anything wrong with it, you can speak your mind and I'll help you."
Chang laiting felt a bitter taste in his mouth. He felt that something was wrong, but Lin Yi didn't seem to be wrong ...
What to do?
Under the white-robed elder's intense gaze, Chang laiting didn't dare to lie. He could only grit his teeth and nod."Elder, there's nothing wrong. It's just like this!"
"In that case, I'll go and take a look! No matter what, Lin Yi is hidden death sect's biggest enemy!"
The white-robed elder grunted in agreement."Let's go. We'll return quickly!"
"Yes, this way please, elder!"
Lin Yi turned his body to the side and led the way.
I wonder if old man beiming is still around? If Lin Yi was in the same situation, he'd probably run away already. After all this trouble, what was he waiting for?
Unfortunately, his spirit sense was able to scan the stone room, but he couldn't find any living being. He wasn't sure if old man beiming was still there.
A while later, the three returned to the stone room, and Lin Yi looked at old man beiming in surprise. This old idiot didn't run?
Did he feel that he couldn't escape? Or did they think that he was important to hidden death sect and would not be punished?
"Darknorth greets you, elder!"
Old man beiming's old face was a little depressed and embarrassed. When he saw the three of them walking over, he quickly stepped forward and bowed."Lin Yi ... I really don't know where to start!"
Other than old man beiming, there was no one else in the room. Lin Yi's clone had disappeared without a trace, and old man beiming didn't know what to say.
Say that this place was haunted? That would really be a ghost!
"There's no need to be so polite, Hall Master darknorth! Where's Lin Yi's body?"
The white-robed elder waved his hand and a hint of surprise flashed through his eyes. "Didn't he die? Where did the corpse go?"
"Well ... Darknorth doesn't know!"
Old man beiming revealed a helpless and bitter smile, and the sparse beard on his chin was almost torn off by him."Not long after the two of them left, Lin Yi's body suddenly disappeared without any signs ... It's weird, so I don't know what happened!"
"Are you kidding us, Hall Master darknorth? You were there when Lin Yi died, and you said you didn't know how he died. You were also there when the body disappeared, and you said you didn't know how it disappeared! Do you think it's appropriate?"
Lin Yi sneered,"I said I wanted to keep the scene intact, but now it's gone. What's the point of elder coming?"
"I really don't know!"
Old man beiming was extremely aggrieved, and it seemed like he couldn't get rid of the blame."Elder, everything I said is true. If I'm lying, I'm willing to be struck by lightning!"
