Lin Yi's deep thoughts made the two men on the ground even more nervous. They looked at each other but didn't dare to move. They didn't even dare to breathe, afraid that Lin Yi would misunderstand and kill them.
They knew very well that they had kicked an iron plate this time. The chasm between a Big Shot at the peak of the late stage of perfection and a Big Shot at the ultimate perfection was destined. It was impossible for the two of them to have any chance of winning, especially in their current state. There was no possibility of them retreating in one piece.
Lin Yi's strength level was different from what they thought, but in this aspect, there wasn't much difference. After all, he just killed the fallen Dragon before coming into the mysterious realm, and that was a true ultimate peak of a giant.
The two of them waited for five minutes in a tense situation before Lin Yi finally let go of the giant hand on their necks.
"Many thanks! Many thanks!"
The short man thanked him profusely, and the tall man beside him nodded repeatedly. The fear of death that was so close to them was not something that anyone could bear, even experts at their level.
Lin Yi looked at the two indifferently."Go back and tell me that I have no intention to be your enemy and I will not turn to the Yan Kingdom. But if you must force me, I don't mind paying you a visit."
"Yes, yes, we'll definitely help you pass the message."
The two of them readily agreed.
They were very clear that although they had previously vowed to get rid of the unstable factor of "Meng Jia," now that they had really encountered a tough one that could not be any tougher, the few people behind them would most likely choose to cower like them.
At the end of the day, they were only together temporarily because they were from the same camp. Other than having the same mission, there was no tacit understanding or trust between them.
If they encountered weaklings, they would naturally rush forward and be the first to be the first. However, once they kicked an iron plate, there was absolutely no one who would stand out and be the first to do so. Even the strongest among them, the expert at the pinnacle of perfection of a giant, was the same!
After all, being the first to stand out could kill. Who would be willing to take the initiative to offer their body for a group of strangers?
After letting the two go, Lin Yi didn't stay idle. He immediately went to the palace to meet the king.
Xianyang Palace.
Lin Yi's eyelids twitched as he walked into the majestic hall. There was an invisible pressure suppressing his strength-was this the legendary Emperor's might?
This familiar feeling made Lin Yi subconsciously think of Xu Anshan, that man who was born with the aura of a King. No matter where he went, he was born with a very similar pressure.
However, the other party was clearly not Xu Anshan.
Lin Yi looked at the tall and sturdy man sitting on the throne from a distance. He seemed to be surrounded by the aura of a Prince, and his face couldn't be seen clearly. Lin Yi followed the memories of Meng Jia that the secret realm gave him and went up to greet him.
"What's the matter?"
The voice was like thunder. The other party's calm question made Lin Yi's heart jump for the first time. He even instinctively wanted to submit to him. Although he suppressed it immediately, it still made Lin Yi shocked.
Could this be the aura of an Emperor throughout the ages?
Lin Yi suppressed his suspicions and said respectfully,""Your Majesty, the envoy of the Yan Kingdom asked me to tell you that the king of Yan is afraid of Your Majesty's power and does not dare to raise an army to resist. He is willing to become Your Majesty's Minister and pledge allegiance to the great Qin!"
These words were like a copy of history. In the end, Lin Yi still chose to help the Yan Kingdom. There was no other way. Even if there were deeper considerations behind it, Lin Yi could only cooperate with Dong que because he had something on Meng Jia.
There were a lot of hidden dangers, and Lin Yi couldn't guarantee that he'd be able to get out of this alive, but if he didn't come in, he'd probably be in jail tonight, or even die on the spot!
The King of Qin didn't reply for a long time.
Lin Yi didn't have to lift his head to know that the man was looking at him, but he couldn't figure out what that look meant.
Could it be that the King of Qin is suspicious of my identity?
Lin Yi had Meng Jia's memories in his mind, and he tried his best to imitate Meng Jia's every move, but even the most professional actor would have flaws. If someone saw it, they might see through it.
what would happen if meng jia's identity was exposed?
lin yi was suddenly curious about this question. he thought about it for a long time and came up with an answer. in this era, there was a high chance of being seen as a spy from another country, and the end result was still death.
the atmosphere froze for a long time.
if it was someone else, even the real meng jia would've been covered in cold sweat and would've been scared witless, but lin yi was still standing there with respect.
"you're good at maintaining your composure,"the king of qin finally said.
"are you also a cultivator who participated in the baptism?"
lin yi raised his head in shock and finally saw the face of the qin king clearly. it was a young face, and it didn't matter if he was pretending to be young or not, but one thing was for sure-the real qin king couldn't look like this!
Before this, Lin Yi had already calculated all the people involved in this historical killing scene, and had guessed the possible strengths and movements of all parties. He had only left out the most important person, Qin Wang.
Perhaps the emperor's aura was too strong, but Lin Yi still ignored him instinctively, even though he knew that the other party was the key to victory or defeat.
Subconsciously, they believed that no one was qualified to play the role of such an ancient figure. Even the killing God Bai Qi and the other ancient people would not dare to have the slightest blasphemy towards him.
However, it seemed that he had been overthinking it.
In the end, this was just a half-real, half-fake role-playing game. No matter how the Emperor of the ages was, it was only an identity here. At best, it was more eye-catching than any other identity.
The King of Qin said indifferently,"you can block the assassination of those two people. You have some strength. I've always valued talents. As long as you are loyal to me, I can spare your life."
Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat-could this be the ultimate completion of one of the big shots they were talking about?
However, Lin Yi rejected the thought as soon as it appeared. The pressure this man was giving him was no ordinary peak-stage giant. Even when he was in the meeting of the five Giants, he was still calm when facing tyrant and the others.
But in front of this person, the aura of a Prince constantly reminded Lin Yi that this was not someone he could fight against!
Was it another natural Emperor like Xu Anshan?
