"Don't talk about those useless things. When we were fighting the darkness demon beast, you didn't come out to take charge of the situation. Now that we've defeated the darkness demon beast, defended and repaired the node, you're here to tell me that you're looking at the big picture? What a joke!"
Lin Yi didn't give Gu Shi any face at all and spoke without mercy, "You're always missing when killing enemies, but you're always the first one to take credit. No one can beat you! As expected of the managing vice Hall Master, you're really brilliant!"
"What do you mean by snatching credit?" Gu Shi was furious. Do you know that you're looking down on the high ambassador's dignity?"
Lin Yi only smiled coldly and didn't say anything, dragging the martial Alliance's messenger down with him. The martial Alliance's Messenger was getting angry.
"Sima Yi, you've really gone too far! Even if the martial Alliance appointed you as the supervisor of the martial Alliance's branch and central communications, you're still considered a member of the martial Alliance. When fighting against the darkness demon beast clan, you should still obey the unified command and orders!"
The martial Alliance's emissary put on the airs of a high Ambassador and spoke with a serious expression,""The hall Master of the naduo martial Alliance branch has died in the line of duty. The highest position now is the executive Vice Hall Master, Gu Lishi. With vice Hall Master Gu taking over the command, there are no problems with the procedures. Are you still not convinced?"
"I'm not exactly unconvinced, but the first hall Master entrusted me with some matters before he died in the line of duty. For example, I'll temporarily lead the team and deal with the battle in the abandoned forest!"
Lin Yi took out the hall master's token. "That's why we have to look at the big picture. I think that someone like vice clan master Gu who looks at the big picture would be more willing to follow the great clan master's will and listen to my orders and arrangements. Don't you think so, vice clan master Gu?"
Gu Shi's face turned extremely ugly.
Lin Yi's words weren't the only ones that hurt him. The first hall master's token and will made Gu Shili curse in his heart. He felt that the first hall Master didn't even want to live in peace, why did he have to leave behind such a disaster!
"Steward Sima, just because you have the token doesn't mean you're the first hall Master of the martial union branch!"
The messenger frowned slightly and said with a cold face,""Back then, there might not have been a more suitable candidate, so the first hall Master gave the order at the last moment to temporarily hand the token to you. However, it's different now. With the martial Alliance branch's managing vice Hall Master present, it's no longer appropriate for you to continue holding onto the first hall master's token!"
gu shi was overjoyed. he laughed as if he had been injected with chicken blood,""that's right, that must be it! the first hall master is on his deathbed and has no other way, so i gave him to you for temporary safekeeping. i'm not letting you take the token and become the new first hall master!"
"the high ambassador's words make too much sense! sima yi, quickly hand over the token! this is not your place to make the decision! even if the first hall master reincarnated, he would still have to obey the orders of the high ambassador, let alone the fact that you're only holding the first hall master's token. do you still want to disobey the high ambassador's orders?"
"Hahaha, you didn't expect this, did you? The high Ambassador saw through you at a glance, and you actually want to use the token to fake the first hall master's will. This is simply preposterous! Esteemed envoy, Sima Yi is obviously a liar, a true liar. If not for the esteemed envoy's sharp eyes, we would have been deceived by him!"
Gu Lishi rattled on and on, not only stepping on Lin Yi, but also flattering the martial Alliance's Messenger-his plan was flawless!
The high Ambassador smiled smugly and nodded,""You can't say that. We still have to believe in others! Sima Yi, you must have forgotten something. After all, at that time, the situation was tense, so it was normal for you to not remember. Do you understand now?"
The guy thought he was giving Lin Yi face, but he didn't know that it was the same as humiliating him.
Lin Yi looked at the two of them, his face expressionless. "I'm telling the truth. There's nothing to understand. But the two of you, your ability to turn black into white is really unparalleled!"
Gu Shi and the Messenger's faces turned dark. They felt that Lin Yi didn't know what was good for him and was trying to slap him in the face.
"Sima Yi, you said that what you said is the truth, then show us proof! Although it's useless to prove it, at least we can believe that your character is not despicable to the point of being unbearable!"
Gu Shi felt that victory was in his hands, so he pressed on step by step.
"That's right. We still need evidence to speak for ourselves!"
The messenger nodded in agreement, asking Lin Yi to show evidence to prove that everything he said was true!
Lin Yi remained silent. He knew that the messenger was biased towards Gu Shi, and they might be acquaintances. So no matter what, there was no evidence, and it would not lead to a good result.
The artifact language couldn't take it anymore. It stood up and said,""I believe in brother Sima. He has never lied. What do you mean by lying by nature? this is simply slander! The first hall master's bestowment at the last moment can't be fake, or else how could there be such a great victory?"
"You shut up, you have a big problem yourself. You haven't even made it clear yet. If you have the time, why don't you reflect on what you've done wrong?"
Gu Shi's face was even more unpleasant to the language of monsters. He opened his mouth and sneered,""We don't have time to deal with your problem, not that we don't want to deal with you. Don't think that you'll be fine, okay?"
"You still believe in Sima Yi ... What's the point of believing in Sima Yi! Because you're not someone that can be trusted, you know? You've already been captured by the darkness magical beasts and brought into the spatial node. Did you see the first hall Master giving out orders with your own eyes, or did you hear the first hall Master say these words with your own ears? None of them, right? Then how can you have the nerve to speak up?"
The language of the living things was obviously not as eloquent as Gu Shi. After being rebuked by Gu Shi, it could not talk back and could only glare at Gu Shi in anger.
Gu Shi did not care about this kind of harmless glare at all and ignored it completely!
"Brother Hua, say no more!"
Lin Yi patted on the shoulder of the language of living things, then turned to Gu Shi and the messenger and shrugged,""It doesn't matter! It has nothing to do with me whether you acknowledge the Great Hall master's will or not. I have no interest in things like commanding, I just feel that Gu Shi is not worthy!"
"I won't mention the credit of snatching back and sealing the node to you guys yet. I'll just pretend that this credit was really done by Gu Shi, so what? Just this alone was not enough to make Gu Shi the leader of the martial Alliance's branch. In terms of contribution, brother Hua is the one who has worked the hardest!"
"In terms of contribution, everyone should listen to brother Hua's command. In this battle against the darkness demon beast, he was the biggest contributor. All of our contributions added together can't even compare to his!"
