141: Chapter 141: Hidden Array!

Lin Yi silently took out Mutuo and returned to Shu City.

Xu Sanqian looked at Lin Yi with surprise on his face and said, “Brother Lin Yi, what did you just go off to do?”

“My old man is looking for you!”

Lin Yi replied with a relaxed smile, “Nature called.”

“Had to find a place for a little relief.”

“Could relief take that long?”

Xu Sanqian looked at Lin Yi with a significant expression, “Brother Lin Yi, I’m afraid you might need to replenish your kidneys!”

“Today you’ve accomplished a great feat, when we get back home, I’ll have someone prepare an entire beef banquet for you!”

Lin Yi simply smiled and said nothing.

His opponent surely couldn’t even dream that in such a short period of time, he had already taken Mutuo’s little life.

Xu Yi, on the other hand, looked at Lin Yi with great interest and said, “For the spirit mine dispute this time, Lin Yi, my friend, you are the top contributor.

Just say the word for any reward you desire.”

The Xu Family having been able to seize the rights to the spirit mine, Lin Yi had played a major role – even Xu Yi himself hadn’t held much hope at the start, yet Lin Yi had defeated Mutuo in one fell swoop, winning the arena battle for the Xu Family!

Lin Yi responded with neither servility nor overbearingness, “As for the reward, let’s not worry about that.

Just don’t forget the matter that Family Head Xu promised to this young fellow.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Yi’s brows furrowed slightly.

Compared to the matter Lin Yi wanted him to consider, he would rather Lin Yi just ask for more rewards and be done with it.

That was the Martial Arts Academy, after all!

“What’s the matter, Family Head Xu?

Could it be that you still don’t want to trust me?”

Seeing his reaction, Lin Yi was not annoyed, “This is a win-win cooperation, if Family Head Xu does not wish to participate, I won’t insist.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Yi’s demeanor became serious and he said, “Do not underestimate me, I.

Though I may be timid, I am a man of my word!”

“We will lend our full support to the cooperation in dealing with the Martial Arts Academy!”

“However, my friend Lin Yi, when it comes to facing the Martial Arts Academy, we must not rush and should plan carefully.”

Lin Yi nodded, “When the time comes to move against the Martial Arts Academy and start the battle, I will inform Family Head Xu!”

Of course, he also knew that the strength of the Dragon Mountain Empire Martial Arts Academy was in no way comparable to the smaller academies of Shi Country and Jin Country.

He would formulate the battle plan after meeting with Lu Li!

Back at the Xu Residence, Lin Yi took out the storage bag he had seized from Mutuo and began to inventory his spoils of war.

Being a top heavenly pride of the academy, Mutuo had a considerable fortune – an enormous amount of spirit stones and elixir pills were a given, and among them, there were no less than eighteen top-grade spirit stones!

This was equivalent to Lin Yi’s previous haul from the treasure vault of the Golden Country Martial Arts Academy.

In fact, it was even more!

“These heavenly prides from the Dragon Mountain Empire Martial Arts Academy are indeed rich!”

Lin Yi exclaimed.

That was why as a martial artist, one must leave the smaller places behind.

Just as Lin Yi was about to stow away these spoils of war, an unexpected discovery caught his attention.

“What’s this?”

Lin Yi picked up a blood-colored token from among the booty.

The token, made from some strange material and carved with ancient runes, had a large “Blood” character at its center.

Although he didn’t know the purpose of this blood-colored token, Lin Yi’s intuition told him it was anything but ordinary.

“Better to keep it first for now.”

He put the blood-colored token away and began his cultivation.

With the resources he had obtained from Mutuo, Lin Yi was confident he could further enhance his cultivation level!

…

Five days later.

When Lin Yi stepped out of his room again, he had reached the Fourth Level of the Grandmaster Realm!

Feeling the surge of true qi within him, Lin Yi couldn’t help but exclaim, “If only there were a few more fat sheep like Mutuo.”

His breakthrough in cultivation was entirely dependent on the fortunes he had seized after slaying Mutuo.

On the experience of killing for loot and plundering fat sheep, Lin Yi had only one word: Exhilarating!

He had come to love this kind of thing.

It was just a shame that such fattened lambs were far too rare!

Otherwise, no matter how many came, he could devour them all!

“Ning’er, where did you and Little Jin go?”

Lin Yi looked around but could not spot Lin Ning or Little Jin, prompting his brows to furrow.

Where had this girl and her dog run off to now?

It was just at that moment when Lin Ning’s voice suddenly rang in his ear, “Brother, we’re right here!”

Lin Yi immediately turned towards the source of the voice, but something bizarre happened; his view was completely empty, he heard Lin Ning’s voice but saw no trace of her!

Just as Lin Yi was feeling utterly baffled,

the space before him suddenly rippled.

In the next instant, Lin Ning and Little Jin’s figures appeared out of the fluctuating space as if they had materialized from thin air!

“You two?”

Lin Yi’s eyes widened, “How did you do that?”

However, Little Jin looked at him as if he had just said something astonishing, “You ignorant boy, this is called a Hidden Array.”

“It’s an array that can temporarily make someone invisible.”

“Invisible?”

A sparkle appeared in Lin Yi’s eyes.

That was indeed a remarkable feature!

With this Hidden Array’s invisibility function, couldn’t he do whatever he wanted?

“Can this Hidden Array truly hide someone from everyone’s sight?”

Lin Yi asked with high hopes.

“What nonsense are you thinking!”

Little Jin gave Lin Yi a disdainful glance, “Ultimately, the Hidden Array is just another type of array; how could it be flawless?”

“This kind of Hidden Array can at most fool those below the True Man Realm.

As for those above it, they can see through the existence of the Hidden Array with a single glance.”

“That’s good enough.”

Lin Yi nodded thoughtfully; this thing could perhaps come in very handy!

“So, you seem to be quite interested in this Hidden Array?”

Little Jin seemed to notice Lin Yi’s eagerness for the Hidden Array and said teasingly, “But think about it, this is an invisibility function, the dream of many men.

Even if one were to peep at a beauty taking a bath, they would not be discovered…”

Lin Yi: “…”

“Can’t you think of something better?

Am I that kind of person?”

“Besides, wouldn’t you still have to control the Hidden Array?”

“Not necessarily.”

However, Little Jin shook his head, “This Hidden Array is very easy to control.

With just a Hidden Array Talisman, anyone can activate the Hidden Array.”

With that said, Little Jin took out a talisman and deliberately waved it in front of Lin Yi.

“Same old rules, I’ll pay ten million.”

Lin Yi tossed a Storage Bag to Little Jin.

“Deal!”

Little Jin caught the Storage Bag, confirmed the count was correct, and then handed the talisman over to Lin Yi.

“What a greedy Dead Dog.”

Lin Yi gave Little Jin a glare and then started examining the Hidden Array Talisman in his hands.

“Brother Lin Yi!”

Just then, a familiar voice unexpectedly reached him, and Lin Yi turned to see Xu Sanqian approaching him, with a woman in a black dress following.

“Look who’s here?”

Lin Yi focused his eyes and saw that it was none other than Lu Li, the leader of the Fierce People Gang!

The girl had finally arrived!

That also meant, their plan to bring down the Dragon Mountain Empire Martial Arts Academy could now begin!
