Chapter 5024: Another Foundation establishment cultivator

But just as he was about to open the door, he heard footsteps outside. Lin Yi subconsciously became alert and stopped.

In order to cultivate in peace, he had carefully observed the surrounding environment. There were not many people living in this community, and the building he was in could be counted with his fingers.

Other than the convenience store on the first floor, only the third floor was occupied. On the fifth floor, there was no one opposite the door. The sixth floor above was empty, and even the house had not been renovated, so there would not be anyone there. The same was true for the fourth floor. In that case, why would there be footsteps at this time?

Could it really be haunted? Lin Yis heart skipped a beat. He didnt open the door, but he still sent out his spirit sense.

The footsteps got closer and closer, and finally stopped outside the door. Lin Yi was still excited at first, but he quickly realized that it was all for nothing. The people who came werent ghosts, but two living people. Hed just seen one of them during the day, the agent.

Other than the agent, there was also a tall, cold-looking woman. Lin Yi didnt notice her at first, but he realized that she was a pract.i.tioner as well, and she was a Foundation early stage pract.i.tioner!

Itd only been a day since hed returned to the common world, and this was already the third foundation Stage pract.i.tioner hed met. Lin Yi couldnt help but wonder-what was going on here?

But this woman seemed to be injured quite badly, her breathing clearly unstable. Normal people wouldnt be able to tell from her face, but it couldnt escape Lin Yis eyes.

Miss, the rent of this house is indeed very cheap, but I have to say something first, in case you later Sue us for lying to consumers. If that happens, well be wronged to death. The agent said.

Speak, he said. The tall woman coldly spat out a word.

To tell you the truth, someone was killed by an electric saw during the renovation of this house, so its said to be haunted. Although your house is opposite, I still have to tell you in advance that no one believes in ghosts, but I think its better to believe it than not, dont you think so? The agent rambled on-perhaps it was because the girl was a beauty, but his att.i.tude towards Lin Yi was much more sincere than it was during the day.

Ghost? If it dares to come, Ill chop it to death. The tall woman said coldly. She took the key and walked into the room. She closed the door behind her, leaving the agent standing at the door, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

This woman was really tough! Lin Yi was speechless. Pract.i.tioners were strong, so they werent afraid of ghosts like normal people, but female pract.i.tioners were still women. No matter how strong they were, they couldnt change some of their habits, like being afraid of bugs or ghosts.

However, this female cultivator was obviously an exception. Her words and actions were cold and overbearing, without the slightest intention of being weak.

Looks like Ill have to find a chance to talk to this cold little girl. Lin Yi mumbled as he pinched his chin. He wasnt coveting the girls beauty-with all the girls he had right now, he wouldnt be too surprised by her beauty even if she was a real beauty.

The only reason he thought of this was because of the others strength. Lin Yi didnt believe that this early Foundation Stage pract.i.tioner had nothing to do with the two Foundation Stage pract.i.tioners from before.

But Lin Yi didnt plan on going to the door immediately. This cold girl was obviously hard to talk to, and she was injured now, so shed be extra careful around strangers. Going to the door and asking would be asking for trouble.

Plus, Lin Yis strength wasnt fully recovered yet-a Sky Cla.s.s late phase peak wouldnt have a problem dealing with an injured early Foundation Stage pract.i.tioner, but it wasnt enough to intimidate them. The most important thing for Lin Yi right now was to recover his strength-he didnt want to go head to head with someone unless it was absolutely necessary.

Therefore, if he wanted to ask questions, he had to have a suitable opportunity. Otherwise, if he forced himself to ask, it would only produce the opposite effect.

Lin Yi only pushed the door open when there wasnt any movement from the opposite door. He went to the store downstairs to ask around, only to find out that there werent any night food stalls nearby, only downtown.

It was a good thing that Lin Yi was fast-it took less than five minutes for him to get there, even when others took half an hour to get there on their e-bike. Hed be even faster if he didnt ask for directions.

As expected, the night food stall was indeed full of people. All kinds of people gathered here, drinking beer and eating barbecue, and bragging to vent their anger. If one was listening, one could definitely know everything as long as they stayed here for two hours.

There were all sorts of topics, from national affairs to neighborhood gossip-Lin Yi didnt even have to go talk to people, and hed know everything he needed to know just by eating.

The first thing that could be confirmed was that there was no chaos in the secular world, at least there was no chaos in the social order on the surface. From this, it could be inferred that the cultivators hidden under the social order were not in great chaos either. Otherwise, if the chaos was really out of control, the social order would inevitably be affected, and not as calm as it was now.

In other words, these heavenly Dao stage experts didnt have any major conflicts with the mortal worlds original cultivation forces. There were only two explanations for this. Either very few people knew of their existence, or these heavenly Dao stage experts had reached some kind of consensus with the hidden families and ancient sects, and werent hostile to each other.

No matter which one it was, it wasnt a bad situation for Lin Yi. As long as there wasnt any big-scale conflict, it meant that Lingshan and the others werent in any trouble yet. After all, there were so many people who were on the same side because of him, and if anything happened to any one of them, itd alert everyone. The investigation Bureau and all the n.o.ble houses would be in chaos, and it wouldnt be as peaceful as it was now.

After coming to this conclusion, Lin Yi could finally relax a little. He still had to figure out the background and intentions of these Tiandao Masters, but at least it wasnt as urgent as he thought it would be. He could wait until he recovered his strength before making any plans.

Other than that, Lin Yi also understood where he was now. He was in a small county in the southwest, a County city called xima. It was almost the entire Huaxia away from Donghai, and the distance wasnt an ordinary distance.

Moreover, the transportation in this place was not developed. There was no airport or train station. If he wanted to go far, he had to take a bus to the prefecture-level city on the side, where the airport or train station was. (To be continued.)
