6247 Chapter 6245-specially opposing
With their methods of hiding, they were able to move around the palace without making a sound, and they wouldn’t be discovered easily if they were spread out into the capital. Lin Yi was quite at ease with this.
Unfortunately, it didn’t seem likely that there would be a forbidden area in the capital that the spirit beasts couldn’t pass through. Lin Yi thought that they would have to search outside the capital in the end to get peace of mind.
This wasn’t something that could be solved in a short period of time, and Lin Yi decided to give up on the idea of releasing the frog to mess things up. He’d found five forbidden areas where the void chains were placed, and he still couldn’t destroy them.
Fortunately, he had placed LAN Guzha beside the Prince of the sea beast clan, Xiao Yan, and there was already some possibility of destroying the three-way Alliance. In addition, there was an unexpected spy, Zheng Dongsheng, so there was no problem at all.
When he returned to the side hall, he found that li Zao Yi had already closed up to refine pills. The spirit beast clan had probably started to urge him to refine pills when he wasn’t around. Although li Zao Yi had some survivors, he still had to do the necessary alchemy.
Lin Yi wanted to talk to li Zao Yi about the progress, but it seemed like he wouldn’t have the chance for now. As an elder, he couldn’t stop making elixirs. Since he didn’t have much to do, he went into seclusion to make elixirs.
The next day, Lin Yi guessed that the spirit beasts would come for a meeting again. He packed up and left the room. The spirit beast guard from yesterday was there.
Lin Yi didn’t disturb Li Zhaoyi as she was still refining in her room. He followed the spirit beast guard to the meeting hall. He wasn’t the first one to arrive today. Zheng Dongsheng arrived first and saw Lin Yi. The spirit beast guard on the side greeted Lin Yi with a cold nod.
As Lin Yi arrived, the other elders arrived one after another. After yesterday’s first meeting, they didn’t even bother with the small talk and went straight to the point.
“There was an emergency in the palace yesterday, so the meeting was interrupted. We’ll continue today.” The Vermilion Bird looked at the people in the room with an indifferent expression.
“Elder Vermilion Bird, what’s the matter that you need to deal with personally? If you need any help, just let me know. My abilities may be limited, but my intentions are absolutely sincere. ” Xiao Yi smiled, looking very friendly. Only Lin Yi knew that the guy was pissed.
“Thank you, Your Highness. It’s all done. If there’s a need, I’ll definitely ask Your Highness for help.” The Vermilion Bird revealed a smile. He was already giving Xiao Yan a lot of face.
However, in Xiao Yan’s eyes, because of his preconceived notion, he felt that the Vermilion bird’s smile had a deeper meaning. Even if he did not say that it was perfunctory, he felt that it was definitely hypocritical.
“If you ask, elder Vermillion Bird, I won’t refuse.” Xiao Yan laughed out loud, but an undetectable cold glint flashed across his eyes.
Lin Yi chuckled to himself-he knew that Xiao Yan meant that Vermilion Bird was more open and honest, and that they’d have more opportunities to work together in the future. If he were to stab her in the back, then there’d be nothing to say.
He didn’t know what LAN Guzha said yesterday, but it seemed to have worked. The Vermillion Bird might not have noticed Xiao Yan’s dissatisfaction, but Lin Yi saw through it as if it was a fire.
“Your Highness is truly a forthright person!” The Vermilion Bird complimented him indifferently and brought the topic back to the meeting. “Today’s first topic is about the sea beast race. I hope your Highness will take care of me. ”
“Elder Vermilion Bird, you’re talking about the joint exercise. In order for our plan to be carried out smoothly, we’ll need to invest a lot of manpower and resources, especially the sea beasts. It must be treated as a real battle, and the number of troops invested can not be less than 80% of the plan.” The Azure Dragon waited for the Vermilion Bird to finish and immediately added an additional explanation.
Lin Yi and Zheng Dongsheng were the only two people present who didn’t know what the plan was. The other six were obviously people who knew, so no one asked for the details.
“Elders, I’ve thought about the joint exercise carefully, and I don’t think it’s necessary! You have to know that we sea beasts are not interested in summoning such a large-scale sea beast tide, especially when it’s mainly for long-distance transportation. Anyway, when the plan is implemented, I guarantee that there won’t be any problems with long-distance transportation. Therefore, it’s better to reduce the number and scale of this joint exercise to 10% of the plan. ” Xiao Yan said lazily. He did not remember saying that he would not reject the Vermilion bird’s request.
“Ten percent of the plan? What was the point of such a drill? This is an exercise to ensure the plan goes smoothly. If we can’t test it completely, we might as well not do it!” The Azure Dragon was slightly startled. Then, his expression turned somewhat unsightly, and his tone of voice became unpleasant.
“If you don’t want to do it, then don’t do it! I don’t mind!” Xiao Xiao grinned and looked at the Azure Dragon fearlessly. After hearing about Central’s coveting of the genes of the Royal Marine beasts, this fellow already had the thought of falling out with them.
Since he was in the spirit beast clan’s Palace, the Vermilion Bird and the others would not attack him directly and give the sea beast clan a chance to take revenge. Thus, Xiao Yan had no qualms.
“Your Highness, if you have any other ideas, you can bring them up for discussion. Our cooperation is about mutual trust. Only then can we be sincere and United. If we keep our words to ourselves, nothing will be done!” The Vermilion Bird glanced at Xiao Yan and suddenly smiled. As expected of the actual leader of the spiritual beasts, his judgment and bearing were admirable.
“You’re overthinking things, elder Vermillion Bird. I’m just stating the facts, and I don’t have any other thoughts. Let’s discuss it. Is there any problem?” Xiao Yan shrugged his shoulders. Although he was prepared to fall out with them, he did not need to do so until the last moment.
“No problem! We’re all allies, so we can’t miss out on the joint exercise. Let’s not talk about the specific number first. Let’s vote to see if the joint exercise is necessary. I think it’s necessary. Please raise your hand if you object!” The Vermilion Bird did not continue to argue with Xiao Yan and immediately started the voting process.
Furthermore, the Vermilion bird’s way of speaking was very tactful. He first stated his position and then asked those who opposed to raise their hands. Under normal circumstances, even if Xiao Yan was really against it, he would not object when the Vermilion Bird had clearly expressed his approval.
If the Vermilion Bird asked those who agreed to raise their hands, Xiao Yan would most likely ignore it. But if he asked those who disagreed to raise their hands, he would have to consider carefully whether he should raise his hands. If he hesitated for a while longer and did not raise his hand, it would mean that he agreed.
Lin Yi didn’t have that many concerns-he didn’t want the Vermilion Bird to be happy with what he wanted, so he raised his hand to object.
