Not yet. Weve only set up a three-person investigation group. Well have to discuss the specific investigation method further. Xin Yijie laughed bitterly. In fact, in his opinion, this kind of investigation was completely unnecessary.

No matter what, Lin Yi gave him the original version of the technique-this was an undeniable fact, and that alone was enough to give him a proper t.i.tle as a grand-master!

Whats more, the development momentum of the green cloud School in the North Island had been extremely sluggish in recent years. Now that the Taigu martial granduncle had returned, it was an encouraging shot for all the disciples in the school. Even if it was purely for the sake of morale, the ident.i.ty of the martial granduncle must not be doubted.

Why couldnt Chen Dongcheng and the rest understand such a simple logic?

Hehe, these people are just knocking on the mountain to scare the Tiger. Lin Yi immediately understood Chen Dongchengs intentions. To a cheap uncle like him, the sic was like a sharp sword hanging over his head. If he knew what was good for him, hed still be the ancient grand uncle-master that everyone respected. If he didn t, hed become a scammer that everyone wanted to kill.

Lin Yi didnt doubt the mans ability to prove that he was a charlatan at all. Even if he was a true martial granduncle of the blue cloud sect, Chen Dongcheng could easily label him as a charlatan.

What do you mean? Xin Yijie was still in the dark and didnt know how to react.

Nothing. By the way, since youre going to investigate me, shouldnt you avoid arousing suspicion at this time? Lin Yi said.

I Xin Yijie hesitated for a moment. He didnt have much ambition, and his strength wasnt outstanding among the sect elders. At this time, the best choice was to be honest and pretend not to see anything.Senior granduncle, you were strongly recommended by this disciple. I really didnt expect this to be the result. I really feel bad

Theres still more. Lin Yi just looked at him. Hed known Xin Yijie for a while now, and he knew that while the guy was honest and honest, he had a Black-bellied side to him. If there werent any other important reasons, the guy wouldve chosen to protect himself instead of taking the risk to come here and tell Lin Yi.

Also I heard something after I came back. I thought it was very strange. Maybe it has something to do with you, grand uncle-master. Xin Yijie said hesitantly.

What is it? Lin Yi asked.

Sect leader Hong is in trouble. Xin Yijies tone was heavy as he spoke, but Lin Yi didnt seem to care.When I first brought your matter back to the sect, there was a huge dispute among the higher-ups of the sect. Sect leader Hong and Deputy sect leader Chen had a fierce quarrel. Sect leader Hong, like me, raised both hands in favor of welcoming you back to the sect. I thought that since the final conclusion was reached, sect leader Hong would definitely be the leader, but I didnt expect it to be completely different.

Continue. Lin Yi revealed an interested expression. He didnt know that there was such an inside story. From what he heard, it meant that the sect leader Hong He had never met was on his side?

I heard that, in name, sect leader Hong visited the sects on the outer island, but in fact, he never left the North Island. Xin Yijie said.

How did they know? Lin Yi was suspicious-there wasnt any customs in this place, and they could just get out on an aerial spirit beast-who knew if sect leader Hong really made it out?

Because someone saw the corpse of the sect leaders Mount with their own eyes. However, they were killed afterwards and all traces were erased. However, some news still leaked out. Xin Yijie said grimly.

You mean sect leader Hong was killed because he supported me? Lin Yi felt that there was something wrong with this logic-even if it was as Xin Yijie said, and the sect leader Hong Hed never met was on his side, it was just a matter of att.i.tude, not life or death.

Moreover, how could it be so easy to deal with a sect leader?

Er, you cant put it that way, but theres still a connection Xin Yijie knew that this statement wouldnt stand up to scrutiny, but sect leader Hong was his backer. The reason he had been able to become an elder in the secular world was because of sect leader Hongs strong recommendation. Otherwise, how could he have been able to get such a glorious job with his mediocre strength?

Now that something had happened to sect leader Hong, the att.i.tudes of the higher-ups who used to follow sect leader Hongs orders had changed. When Chen Dongcheng mentioned investigating Lin Yis ident.i.ty in the elders meeting, no one stood up to object. This in itself was enough to explain the problem!

Other people might be able to play it safe and be a fence-sitter, but Xin Yijie couldn t.

Lin Yi, this Taigu great uncle-master, was practically welcomed into the house by him-he was naturally labeled as someone close to Lin Yi. If he decided to play it safe now, hed be the laughingstock of the entire sect, and hed offend Lin Yi!

Other people didnt know Lin Yis strength and thought that he was just a peak Foundation Stage soul, but Xin Yijie knew that this Taigu wasnt as simple as he appeared to be. He was an unfathomable existence!

And so, Xin Yijie had no choice but to come to Lin Yi. He didnt know what to do, but hed have to see if Lin Yi had any ideas.

Now, the green cloud School in the North Island has become Chen Dongchengs sole authority? Lin Yi asked, deep in thought.

Basically, no one dares to refute his words now. Xin Yijie said with a bitter smile.

It seems that the sect leader Hong You mentioned is not very capable. Lin Yi frowned. As a sect leader, he was supposed to be followed by the higher-ups of other sects. Normally, even if something happened, there should at least be some loyal followers. But this guy here just surrendered as soon as something happened to Lin Yi, especially when Chen Dongcheng was only a mid-golden core Deputy sect leader. It was nice to say that he was not capable. To put it bluntly, he was incompetent.

Er Xin Yijie was a little embarra.s.sed as he weakly explained,In fact, you cant blame sect leader Hong for not being able to control the overall situation. The main reason is that Chen Dongchengs background is too deep. The Chen family of the North Island has always been one of the top aristocratic families in the North Island. Back then, the green cloud sect of the North Island was barely able to survive by relying on the Chen family. Not to mention that the Grand Elder is the previous head of the Chen family. He is a top figure in the North Island who can rally hundreds of people with a single call. Even sect leader Hong cant handle him.
