“Martial granduncle, you’ve misunderstood. That’s just our arrangement for ordinary disciples. Special talents are given special treatment. I’m afraid that martial granduncle wouldn’t feel at ease to leave them in the hands of others, right?” Chen Dongcheng said.
“That’s good too. However, they still need an entry-level mentor who will be in charge of teaching them some of the most basic things.” Lin Yi nodded. He only wanted song Lingshan and the others to receive the system training regarding the spiritual sense. As for the other aspects, he really didn’t need anyone else. In the entire ancient martial world, there probably wasn’t a master as strong as him, a xuansheng stage master, let alone the Qingyun sect of the North Island.
Plus, for safety reasons, Lin Yi didn’t want to just leave Lingshan and the others to someone else. It was better to move with him before he understood the situation.
“No problem. As long as it’s an order from martial granduncle, we’ll definitely do our best. We won’t let martial granduncle down,” Chen Dongcheng could be said to grant all requests, and he immediately said,””Martial granduncle, we’ve already prepared your residence. Everyone, please follow me.”
“Oh? Don’t you need to see the sect leader? And your Grand Elder?” Lin Yi said casually. Even though Chen Dongcheng, the Vice-leader, had come out to welcome him with a group of high-level people, there was nothing to be picky about in terms of etiquette. After all, he was just a cheap grand uncle-master who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, not a real grand uncle-master with evidence.
But even so, Lin Yi still had to meet with the current sect leader and the Grand Elder-only then could he confirm his position as a grand uncle. If these two didn’t acknowledge him in person, it would be a big problem.
Any one of them would be able to make Lin Yi fall from grace and become a complete swindler.
“Sect leader Hong is currently busy, and as for the Grand Elder, he’s in closed-door training and doesn’t dare to disturb you. Therefore, I ask for martial granduncle’s forgiveness. I’m afraid that your meeting with the two of them will have to be delayed for a while. During this time, you can familiarize yourself with our current green cloud sect in the North Island. As time passes, there will always be many things that are different from the original. Is there a problem with that?” Chen Dongcheng said in a sincere tone.
“Then let’s do this.” Lin Yi nodded. He understood what the other party meant. It seemed that the Qingyun school still didn’t trust him, their senior granduncle, and had been hiding this from them.
If the Grand Elder or the sect leader saw Lin Yi, it would be a public acknowledgment of Lin Yi’s status as a great uncle-master unless they turned hostile on the spot. It would be hard for them to turn hostile then, as it would be like slapping their own faces. At the very least, they would lose all their face. At the very worst, the entire North island’s Qingyun sect would become a laughing stock in the ancient martial world, and it might even cause the sect to split.
And now, the two of them avoided this problem by not showing up, leaving enough room for them to advance and retreat.
After passing through the main hall, Lin Yi and the group were led by Chen Dongcheng to a steep part of the mountain, and the scene in front of them made their eyes light up.
Under a strangely shaped Eagle beak peak, an ancient hut stood next to a broken cliff. The soaring eaves and cliffs were stacked on top of each other. This scene could only be described with one word: Overlord covers the top, and the sky lamp hangs upside down.
The other higher-ups and disciples had all stopped. Only two people came with Lin Yi and the others-one was the Vice-leader, Chen Dongcheng, and the other was Xin Yijie.
“This is the residence that we have prepared for you and your disciples. In terms of scenery, this is the best place in the entire North Island. What do you think?” Chen Dongcheng smiled apologetically.
Lin Yi looked at the big red words carved on the cliff at the entrance, and his lips curled up.”A single step to the heavens?”
“That’s right, this place is called the ascending heaven cliff. Only those of high status can enter, so there are usually no disciples to disturb us, so it’s relatively quiet and the scenery is excellent. After discussing it, we can’t find a better place to live than this in the entire green cloud Mountain. I hope it will satisfy martial granduncle. ” Chen Dongcheng said with a smile.
“I’m very satisfied. ” Lin Yi smiled as he glanced at Xin Yijie. The guy’s expression hadn’t been right since they arrived, as if he had something to say but didn’t dare to.
“That’s good. We won’t disturb senior granduncle’s rest then. I’ll come to pay my respects to you again tomorrow morning. Goodbye.” Chen Dongcheng saluted.
“Take care,” Lin Yi nodded.
Chen Dongcheng immediately turned to leave. However, before he left, he called out to Xin Yijie,””Elder Xin, please follow me. The elder Council is still waiting for you to make a summary report on your experience in the secular world and the primordial trial. Don’t make everyone wait too long.”
“Yes.” Xin Yijie quickly replied and turned to Lin Yi,”Senior granduncle, disciple will take his leave first. You … You take care.”
With that, Xin Yijie left with Chen Dongcheng, leaving only Lin Yi and the others at the cliff. Chentian pinched his chin,”Boss, don’t you think that Xin Yijie was acting a little weird just now?”
“It’s not just him. I think everyone here is acting weird.” Ziyu pouted.
“Also, I think this place is a little weird.” Lingshan added.
“Hey, hey, hey, are you guys oversensitive? everything’s weird …” Qikun and qijiu looked at each other.
Lin Yi looked at everyone and finally nodded,”Your feeling is right, there is something wrong with this place.”
“What’s wrong?” Everyone looked at each other and quickly asked. They just felt that something was strange, but they couldn’t tell what was wrong.
“We’re under house arrest. ” Lin Yi’s words made everyone jump, and Ziyu quickly looked outside. There wasn’t a single guard around, and it looked like they could just walk out at will-why was he under house arrest?
“Uh … Boss, we have no grudges with them in the past, and this time we came to join the North Island’s Green cloud School. Why did they inexplicably put us under house arrest?” Chentian asked, confused.
The others were also confused. Unless they were crazy, no one would offend others for no reason. It was either for revenge or for benefits, but no matter which of these two reasons, they didn’t seem to be related.
“I can roughly guess a little.” Lin Yi’s tone was calm-he wasn’t surprised at all. He’d thought of countless possibilities before coming here, and this one naturally included. He couldn’t help but smile bitterly to himself-nice people were a rare species these days.
