I dont know what kind of crisis it will be, but from the signs, its clear that the whole school, and even the whole of Jianghai city, will experience a disaster in the near future. Many people will die, Lin Yi said after some thought.

This was the conclusion that he and Shen Yifan had come up with after a long discussion and gathering all the recent information. He had never mentioned it in front of outsiders, and today was the first time.

No. The old man shook his head.Its not that many people will die. Its possible that everyone will die.

Lin Yi froze, and even Han Qis face changed. This was the first time hed heard of this!

Lin Yi wouldve scoffed if someone else had said that, but he had to believe it since it came from the old man.

What kind of catastrophe will it be?

Lin Yi asked with a frown.

According to his previous judgment, although the following steps would be very troublesome, as long as he could control enough power under him, he shouldnt have any extravagant hopes, but at least protecting his own people should not be a big problem.

But according to what the old man said, even if Lin Yis newborn Alliance grew in a short time, it would be a drop in the bucket!

Heavens secrets must not be revealed,the old man waved his hand slightly.

Lin Yi and Hanqi looked at each other, getting more and more confused. The same thought came to their minds at the same time. Was the old man trying to be mysterious?

It was true that the old man had left a good impression on Lin Yi from the moment they met, and the old mans position in Hanqis heart was needless to say, but the two of them werent easy to fool.

As soon as there was the slightest mistake, he would immediately notice the flaws and question it in person!

The old man smiled bitterly.Its not that Im trying to be mysterious, but there are some things that cant be said. If I dont say it, it can still drag on for a while. If I say it here today, there will be layers of induction immediately, leading to the arrival of the Great Tribulation in advance.

Is it that mysterious?

Han Qi was still skeptical.

Lin Yi reacted a little,Could this be the so-called b.u.t.terfly effect?

Thats right. Its quite similar to the b.u.t.terfly effect that the secular world talks about. However, to be more precise, there is a group of extremely powerful beings looking for us at all times. If we mention it, we will be noticed by them, and everything will be brought forward.

The old man explained briefly.

Lin Yi didnt want to get to the bottom of it, so he changed the topic,Senior, how are your preparations?

What I want to do is actually what Tian Xiangyang is already doing. I want to gather all the power that can be gathered as soon as possible to prepare for the Great Tribulation.

The old man replied seriously.

So youre an ally of the Tian family? Lin Yi said, deep in thought.

The general direction is the same, the old man replied.But the specific route will be different. After all, he has his position, and I have my position.

Then, what does senior think Im on? Lin Yi asked.

Han Li perked up and listened intently.

The purpose of bringing Lin Yi here today was to let him truly join them, and the following conversation would decide whether they could truly become one of their own.

Even if they didnt get along, he believed that with the old man and Lin Yis tolerance, they wouldnt become enemies just because of this. However, when it came to choosing a path in the future, it was inevitable that they would go their separate ways.

The old man sized Lin Yi up and said slowly,Judging from your style of doing things, you dont have a clear stand. All you care about is those few people, right?

Not bad.

Lin Yi nodded honestly-this was the reason why hed done all of this. Hed just walk away if the guy said something like the worlds for us.

The old man changed the topic and started talking about himself.The difference between the Tian family and me is like the difference between the gra.s.sroots and the elites.

The Tian family has always walked the path of the elite. Although its not to the extent of nepotism, such as the current family head, Tian Xiangyang, who is very good at picking talents from the gra.s.sroots to cultivate, in the end, its only an elite path that benefits a small number of people. All the resources will ultimately only fall on the heads of a small number of elites.

Im the opposite. Ive always advocated for the gra.s.sroots path. Cultivation resources should benefit as many gra.s.sroots as possible, giving the gra.s.sroots the possibility of growing at the very least.

Lin Yi raised a brow.The weak are prey to the strong in the world of cultivation. The weak get weaker, and the strong get stronger. Seniors way of doing things doesnt fit the big picture.

Thats why Im in this state,the old man smiled.

On the surface, his imprisonment was the result of the current Chief Xu Anshans counterattack, but the real truth was that the gra.s.sroots had lost to the elite.

With the same resources, there was a high probability that ten gra.s.sroots would lose to one elite.

Since thats the case, now that the Great Tribulation is coming, its time for us to unite our forces. If senior comes back to stir up a fight between the gra.s.sroots and the elites, wouldnt you be dragging the Tian family down?

Lin Yis question was impolite, and even Han Qi was worried for him.

Although the old man was now as approachable as an old farmer next door, he used to be a mighty Lord who held the power of life and death in his hands. In terms of decisiveness in killing, he was no less than anyone he had ever seen.

The old man did not seem to mind at all.My young friend is right. I was once obsessed with fortune-telling and almost lost my mind. But now, Ive become much calmer. Even if I still have some regrets, I wont go out and cause chaos for my own thoughts.

Then what are you doing?

If the elite route can withstand the Great Tribulation, this old man will not be stingy with this little bit of power. So what if I have to be dragged down by Tian Xiangyangs horse? But Ive deduced it nine times, and every time, its a dead end. After thinking about it, the only chance of survival lies in the gra.s.s.

Only by uniting the power of the gra.s.sroots as much as possible will we have a chance of surviving this great calamity in the future. Otherwise, we will definitely die.

The old mans clear eyes were looking at Lin Yi, open and honest, without a hint of slyness.

Lin Yi pondered for a long time before raising his head,Why do you think Im inclined to the gra.s.sroots?

He was a gra.s.s-root pract.i.tioner, but when it came to training underlings, Lin Yi was more inclined to the elite route. It wasnt that he couldnt do the gra.s.s-root route, but it would take too much time, energy, and resources. Itd only end up with half the result with twice the effort, and the loss outweighed the gain.

Because of what youve done, because you treat people equally, regardless of their status, the old man said with a smile.

Just this? Lin Yi asked, stunned.

Thats enough. Thats your background. When the real choice is placed in front of you, Im sure youll choose to believe in the gra.s.sroots.

The old man was very certain about this.

Youre even more confident than I am,Lin Yi smiled bitterly.
