Tyrant gulped down a barrel of wine and stood up.””You really know how to put gold on our faces. A loss is a loss, what’s there to not admit?”
Yan Chi rubbed his aching old bones and said,”Do I look like the kind of person who can’t afford to lose?”
Tianji, on the other hand, looked at Lin Yi deeply.”If you really wanted to win, the three of us would’ve been dead long ago.”
Tyrant laughed and threw a barrel of wine at Lin Yi. “I’ve always despised this kind of cat-and-mouse game. But thanks to you, I finally had a good time this time. I’ve gained quite a lot. I’ll remember this favor.”
Lin Yi looked at everyone and said,”Since that’s the case, let’s merge the five Giants from today onwards.”
“……”
Apart from Tianji, who had already expected this, tyrant and flame Chi were both stunned.
They knew that Lin Yi wanted to use this opportunity to get to the top, but they thought that he was only going to be the head of the five in name.
Judging from the strength Lin Yi had just displayed, plus his subordinates, including little du Wang and Duan she, there was nothing to criticize about this.
After today, Lin Yi would become the most important name card of the retained students. Even the hidden Sea King Xiang Yusheng couldn’t compare to him.
After all, no matter how strong Xiang Yusheng was, he could only represent himself. Only the five Giants led by Lin Yi were the real face of the retained students.
However, this was a completely different concept from the merger of the five Giants!
The merging of the Big Five meant that Lin Yi was serious. He was preparing to merge all the repeaters who were in a state of disunity. He didn’t just want to be the number one in name, he wanted to be the actual number one!
If that day really came, Lin Yi would become one of the most powerful people in Jianghai. Other things aside, the repeat school had the most complete Masters in Jianghai.
The atmosphere suddenly froze.
If they had the advantage, they might not oppose the merger of the five Giants. After all, this would become a huge power lever in their hands. Once it was properly controlled, the benefits would be at least several times, or even dozens of times!
But now, Lin Yi was the one and only strong side. Even after the merger, Lin Yi might not treat them badly in the short term.
The few of them had always been used to doing things their own way. Now that there was suddenly a Big Boss giving orders above their heads, not to mention other things, just the psychological barrier alone was not enough.
Plus, who could guarantee that Lin Yi would always protect their interests?
Tyrant put down the wine barrel and stood up again.””If you really want to play like this, we’ll have to continue fighting. If we don’t fight to the death and get swallowed up, how can I, old Bao, explain to my brothers? It won’t be good for my face. ”
Yan Chi laughed.”Old Bao is a person who cares about his face, but I’m not. I’ve been free my whole life, but in the end, I have to listen to other people’s orders. It’s really awkward.”
Not to mention the Lin Yi now, even the legendary Managing Director back then wouldn’t give them orders so easily.
As for the remaining Tianji, he didn’t speak.
He had already anticipated that the future school of repeaters would be United by a powerful person. However, due to the interference of some mysterious power, he had not been able to see that person’s appearance and origin.
Before this, he had thought that it was Banshi Luo.
With Luo Banshi’s control over the rules of time, it wasn’t strange for him to be able to cut off his karmic spying. When Luo Banshi entered the repeat school and fought with the Sea King Xiang Yusheng, it had already shown his intention to get involved in the repeat school.
Everything was going according to plan.
But now, he knew that he was wrong. The person in the future wasn’t Luo Banshi, but Lin Yi!
Tianji was extremely certain about this.
Because he saw the black fire on the future man, it was the same as the one on Lin Yi.
He thought it was a mysterious force interfering with his vision, but now he was sure that the person was Lin Yi.
Only the black flames could completely cut off his karmic spying.
He’d always treated Lin Yi differently from the other five because he couldn’t see the future in Lin Yi, only the uncertainties.
In order to deal with the next great catastrophe, stability was no longer an option for humans, because in such an extremely disadvantageous situation, stability was equivalent to waiting for death.
If he wanted to find a way to survive, he could only embrace the huge uncertainty!
That way, he could at least take a gamble.
Hence, Lin Yi’s suggestion was within his expectations. He would be extremely disappointed if Lin Yi didn’t do it.
Because that would mean that he had completely misjudged.
Tianji’s silence surprised tyrant and Yan Chi. At least from the perspective of the old five, Tianji should be on the same side as them.
In fact, Lin Yi might not be able to have the last laugh if he were to fight to the death.
Most of the time, a duel was one thing, but a life-and-death battle was another.
But without Tianji’s support, they had no chance of winning against Lin Yi alone. They knew that Lin Yi didn’t use his full strength.
Without Tianji’s karmic law, they would lose to Lin Yi for sure!
Tyrant and Yan Chi’s expressions turned extremely ugly.
Logically, they could not criticize Tianji. After all, they did not have any subordinate relationship or any substantial Alliance agreement. Whatever decision Tianji made had nothing to do with them, and they had no right to speak.
However, they still felt betrayed.
“Tianji isn’t that kind of person …”
Yan Chi looked deeply at Tianji. Although they didn’t have much of a personal relationship, they still had a tacit understanding after so many years. Tianji was definitely not the kind of person who would sell his friends for glory.
“Unless they’re certain that we won’t win,” tyrant replied immediately.
Heaven’s secrets could see the future, and no one was as good as heaven’s secrets when it came to grasping the situation in the future. This was common sense that had long been verified.
Tyrant and Yan Chi, who were full of fighting spirit just a moment ago, instantly lost their confidence.
They were not masochists.
Although they enjoyed the fun of fighting, they were not interested in continuing to fight a battle that they were destined to have no chance of winning. After all, they were not alone, and they had to consider the large group of brothers under them.
Once they died, the fate of their subordinates could be imagined.
