"Uncle Ling, I'm really sorry. I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you!"
Lin Yi said, embarrassed."I was able to save uncle Ling because I previously had a magic treasure that could find the problem in the primordial spirit and then let my partner work together to solve the problem."
"Unfortunately, that magic treasure has a limited number of uses. The last time, it disappeared after I used it. If uncle Ling was planted with that kind of seed again, I'm afraid I would be powerless! So, uncle Ling, you must be careful. You must not be plotted against by anyone!"
Lin Yi was just bullshitting, and there were no flaws in his words.
It wasn't that Lin Yi didn't want to explain, but it was too troublesome.
Without Wu Linghai, his divine sense was not as powerful as Fei daqiang and Zhang Yiming, so how could he learn?
"So that's how it is!"
Ling lingjiu immediately revealed a regretful expression and let out a long sigh.
Lin Yi didn't care how regretful Ling lingjiu was.
However, if the other party really did fall into a trap again, and the seed of evil was planted in him, Lin Yi naturally couldn't just stand by and watch.
"Uncle Ling, I heard that you have a brother called Ling lingfa. He's the gray-robed manager of the central Chamber of Commerce in the Wutong continent, right?"
Lin Yi had always wanted to know the answer to this question. Even if he already had an answer in his heart, he still wanted to confirm it with Ling lingjiu.
"Yes, you two know each other. My brother once mentioned you and praised you as a rare young talent. He wanted us to get along well and help each other."
Ling lingjiu didn't try to hide anything and admitted it frankly,""But we don't have much contact with my brother. After all, we're separated by a continent. There are many things that he can't handle even if we tell him. It'll only add to his troubles."
Lin Yi didn't really believe that-if they really didn't keep in contact, why would the first hall Master be so afraid of Ling lingfa?
Come to think of it, Lin Yi himself wasn't honest with Ling lingjiu.
Naturally, there was no reason to ask her to speak without reserve.
"I didn't expect that there would be such a relationship between us. Then we really have to get along well and help each other!"
Lin Yi smiled and added,"house Ouyang and central have a relationship too, so you guys should be good allies with them too, right?"
"Nephew Sima, do you really think so? On the surface, it should be so, but it's not that simple. "
Ling lingjiu smiled and waved her hand."It's true that both our families have a central background. However, the Ouyang family is the partner of the blue robe Alliance of the Phoenix habitat continent. Our Ling family has a relationship with the Wutong continent!" Although we're all the center, we're in the great Fengqi continent, so we should be under the jurisdiction of the blue robe. "
"To put it bluntly, my elder brother is overstepping his boundaries by taking care of our Ling family. If he oversteps his boundaries, blue robe will not say anything on the surface, but he will definitely be unhappy in his heart. He is only taking care of his reputation and did not fall out with my elder brother."
"Under such circumstances, how could the Ouyang family, which represents the blue-robed clan, be as close as brothers with our Ling family? You've overestimated the relationship between our two families. If it weren't for the fact that there are still some interests between the two families, I guess we would have already begun to fight in the open and in the dark?"
Ling lingjiu had a self-deprecating expression on her face as she spoke without any reservations, as if Lin Yi was one of her own.
Ling Binbin was a little embarrassed. He had placed all his hopes on Ouyang cuantian during the most dangerous time.
If it wasn't for Lin Yi, his old man would've been dead by now.
"Big brother Sima, I'll toast you to thank you for saving my father. It's the same as saving our Ling clan."
Ling Binbin raised his cup with both hands to express his gratitude.
"You're welcome. You've already thanked me many times. If you continue to thank me, I'll be too embarrassed to stay!"
Lin Yi drank a glass with him and teased,"Unless you want me to feel uncomfortable all over and quickly finish eating and leave."
"Hahaha, honorable nephew Sima is really funny. However, you're right. Words can't express my gratitude for a great favor. It's meaningless to keep saying thank you in words. We're all on the same side. The friendship between us is in our hearts!"
Ling lingjiu raised her glass to Lin Yi as well and downed it in one go.
Then, he continued the topic,""Other than the Ouyang family, there are other powerful families in Feng Qi continent. Nephew Sima wants to live here, so we must know this."
"For example, the SU family is known as su banzhou in the Feng Qi continent. They have a lot of knowledge in the field of arrays. Many nodes of the underground Devil's Den are maintained by the SU family's array Masters. Therefore, they have a very strong voice in the underground Devil's Den, and even the strength of the family has risen with the tide."
Lin Yi understood.
The SU family was powerful not only because they had a powerful old ancestor, but also because they had the right to speak in the underground Devil's Den.
Although there was no clear evidence, from the information Zhang Yiming had gathered, the SU family must have a certain share in the black market of the underground Devil's Den.
"Nephew Sima, to be honest, the relationship between our Ling family and the SU family is not very good. If you get close to us, the SU family might hate you, so you have to be more careful of the SU family."
Ling lingjiu seemed to be concerned about Lin Yi, but she was actually giving him a heads up in case he went to the SU family.
No matter how one looked at it, Lin Yi, who was the Vice President of the continental alchemy Guild and the Dean of Tianxia College's alchemy division, could be considered an important figure in Fengqi.
Especially since Lin Yi was a diamond-grade Grandmaster, this was even more valuable!
Ling lingjiu had already said that she didn't get along well with the SU family, so naturally, she wouldn't let the SU family win Lin Yi over.
"I understand. Thank you for your reminder, uncle Ling, but I haven't had any contact with the SU family yet. I don't think they would provoke me for no reason."
Lin Yi didn't think much of it.
The SU family was powerful, but they wouldn't make enemies with others for no reason.
Plus, it was someone with a status like Lin Yi-house su had nothing better to do than take things too hard and make a move on Lin Yi.
They were looking for strong reinforcements for their opponents!
"This old man was just casually saying, you don't have to take it to heart. Come, come, come, let's eat, let's eat."
Ling lingjiu stopped there and immediately changed the topic with a smile.
It was really a family dinner next. Everyone talked about some unimportant and interesting things. They talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
After the banquet, Lin Yi had two more peaceful days.
During this time, he also went to the array Dao college and chatted with Shi longcai for a while, leaving the brainwashed spies in Tianxia college with the illusion that they were busy with a mission.
Zhen shuaqi didn't rush Lin Yi. It seemed like he had nothing to do with Lin Yi anymore after giving the order.
This guy went back to his normal life as if he wasn't the one who came to find Lin Yi last time.
