Chapter 6966
6966 Elder Liu’s support
Lin Yi frowned. Threats were useless against him, but it made him unhappy!
If it weren’t for Gu Xiangdong, Lin Yi might have retaliated. Now, he’d just let Gu Tiannan and Jing Hua fight each other while he watched from the side.
“Gu Tiannan, be careful with what you say. Are you saying that I’m abusing my power to take revenge?”
Jing Hua suddenly broke into a smile, looking rather honest. “You’re wrong about that. I’m doing this for the sake of the public. If I can clear Gu Xiangdong’s name, it’ll be a good thing! Of course, the punishment for the perpetrator must also be carried out, or it won’t be enough to serve as a warning for the future generations!”
Lin Yi hmphed coldly in his heart. What the hell was this “honest” guy? this guy was a mountain donkey, he was a cunning bastard!
He actually retreated in order to advance and wanted to deal with him, using this to force him to change his testimony!
If he didn’t do anything, he would have to face the revenge of the mountain sect and Jing Hua’s faction. Moreover, they had the right to do so because he admitted that he had destroyed the transmission channel of the abandoned land!
“Jing Hua, don’t go too far! Quit while you’re ahead!”
Gu Tiannan frowned and snorted,”Lin Yi is a witness I personally invited. He’s also under the watch of President Huang Yuntian. If you dare to touch him, the mystic Sea division’s Alliance will fight back with all their might!”
The mountain sect’s strength was indeed above all the other schools, but in the face of the entire Mystic division sea Academy Alliance, especially under the personal call of Huang Yuntian, they would have to think twice.
Jing Hua paused. From the news he received, Lin Yi and Huang Yuntian were indeed close friends. Perhaps Huang Yuntian would really help Lin Yi.
But so what?
“Gu Tiannan, you don’t have to use Huang Yuntian to pressure me. Lin Yi broke the rules of our mountain sect, so it’s reasonable for him to be punished by us. What right does Huang Yuntian have to seek revenge from us?”
Jing Hua smiled coldly as he looked at Lin Yi,”Therefore, I advise you not to use Huang Yuntian as your backing! Then, you’ll be the scapegoat for some inexplicable people!”
“I’ve never treated President Huang as my source of confidence. If you want to make a move on me, then do it!”
Lin Yi’s face was calm, not taking the threat to heart. “I’m still going to say the same thing. I opened the passage! But because of this, I’ve also saved so many of your mountain sect’s lives. Are you trying to repay kindness with enmity?”
Jing Hua snorted disdainfully. What ingratitude? You actually want the mountain sect to thank you?
“Elder Jing, I don’t think Lin Yi did anything wrong. From the results, he did save everyone from the abandoned land!”
Liu Zhanggong suddenly spoke up, clearly speaking up for Lin Yi,”Even if Lin Yi really did commit some crimes unknowingly, it’s enough to make up for it-we shouldn’t use this against him!”
“Elder Liu, why did you suddenly remember?”
A trace of anger flashed across Jing Hua’s face. He obviously didn’t expect the neutral Liu Zhanggong to suddenly side with his opponent.”Then can you tell me the truth?”
“Elder Jing, I don’t remember anything. I’m not too sure what happened back then, but I don’t think Lin Yi did anything wrong!”
Liu Zhanggong spoke carefully, indicating that he was only protecting Lin Yi and not supporting Gu Tiannan.
Although protecting Lin Yi was the same as supporting Gu Tiannan, the difference had to be made clear!
The neutral party will still be the neutral party. You guys can continue to fight however you want to, there’s no need to hold back!
The rest of the mountain sect’s higher-ups in the hall also joined in the debate. They divided into different camps and attacked each other according to the people they supported. If people who didn’t know saw this, they would think that the mountain sect had already split!
Lin Yi was troubled, not understanding why Liu Zhanggong would protect him. Back in the abandoned land, she didn’t have much of a relationship with him, but they did fight …
Could it be that he felt that his talent was unparalleled and really wanted to take him in as a disciple?
He couldn’t figure it out, so he decided not to guess and continued to watch the mountain sect fight.
After a while, the dust finally settled and the case of the abandoned land was closed. The previous sentence was maintained, Gu Xiangdong was not guilty and Lin Yi was no longer pursued!
This result was entirely due to the support of a lot of neutral forces, otherwise Lin Yi would really be targeted by Jing Hua!
“Good! Very good! You’ve all done well, just wait and see!”
Jing Hua’s expression was extremely ugly. After leaving these words, he flicked his sleeves and left in a Huff.
The crowd dispersed, leaving only Gu Tiannan and his grandson, Liu Zhanggong, and Lin Yi in the hall.
“Lin Yi, you’ve done well. I like you, let’s forget about the past and follow me from now on. I’ll guarantee you a good life and endless glory!”
Gu Xiangdong regained his arrogance after the crisis was over. He even patted Lin Yi’s shoulder and wanted to take Lin Yi as his follower.
Lin Yi slapped Gu Xiangdong’s hand away, not giving him any face.
“Get lost! I’m only helping out of respect for your grandfather. Who Do You Think You Are? You still dare to ask me to work for you?”
Lin Yi said with a half-smile, his tone filled with disdain and mockery.
Who gave Gu Xiangdong the confidence to accept Lin Yi as his follower?
The corner of Gu Tiannan’s mouth twitched. He was also embarrassed by his grandson’s sudden idea … Lin Yi was Huang Yuntian’s brother, why would he be his follower?
After thinking about it, Gu Tiannan and Huang Yuntian were of the same generation, Lin Yi and Huang Yuntian were brothers, and Gu Xiangdong should be calling Lin Yi Grandpa …
Of course, Gu Tiannan would never tell his grandson this. It would be too embarrassing!
“Kid, don’t be so ungrateful! I’m talking to you nicely, but you’re taking advantage of me, aren’t you?”
Gu Xiangdong did not know the key point. He only felt a burning pain in his palm and was about to turn hostile on the spot!
Out of the blue, Gu Tiannan slapped him on the back of his head and growled,””You brat, how can you talk to Lin Yi like that? Hurry up and go back to face the wall and reflect on your mistakes!”
Gu Tiannan was really afraid that his stupid grandson would offend Lin Yi. Jinghua had just left the house, and it wasn’t long before he calmed down. What if something happened again?
Moreover, Lin Yi had Huang Yuntian’s protection. If Gu Xiangdong really offended him, it wouldn’t be a good thing for him!
Gu Xiangdong didn’t know about this. He felt wronged after being slapped by his grandfather, but he didn’t dare to resist. He could only glare at Lin Yi and leave.
“Lin Yi, don’t stoop to the kid’s level. It’s all thanks to you this time. I hope we can get along well in the future, or at least be good business partners, right?”
Gu Tiannan laughed dryly and expressed his gratitude,””This matter is over. If you want to leave the mountain sect, I can send you off first. By the way, is there anything that elder Liu needs?”
