“It’s fine, you don’t have to worry about me. I have a map with me, and I can go back without an aerial spirit beast.” Lin Yi said, shaking his head.
Apart from looking for the life phase mushrooms, the other goal of this trip was to gain experience and break through. If he were to use an aerial spirit beast to return, it would be ineffective.
“In that case … Alright. Senior, we will return first. If you need anything in the future, you can come to the GreenCloud Pavilion to look for me. The two of us will definitely go through fire and water for senior.” Huang xiaotao immediately raised her head and whistled, summoning the spirit Bird that was circling above her head. She supported Cong Zhima and was about to leave.
But at this time, Lin Yi suddenly reached out and stopped them, his expression serious,””Wait!”
Huang xiaotao and Lin Yi were shocked and scared. They thought that Lin Yi was going to change his mind and take back the Wandu golden core fruit.
“Someone’s coming,” Lin Yi said.”Don’t take off yet, run in this direction for a while. I’ll Cover You guys.”
The Jade was already signaling, and Lin Yi could feel an extremely powerful aura quickly approaching them. If Huang xiaotao took off now, she would be too obvious a target and would be easily targeted.
Huang xiaotao and Lin Yi finally realized that they had misunderstood Lin Yi. They were ashamed, but seeing Lin Yi’s serious expression, they knew that the situation was urgent. They didn’t say anything more and left with the spirit Bird after telling senior to be careful.
Lin Yi watched the two leave and continued to wait. From the other party’s obvious intention of approaching quickly, he had a feeling that the other party was also here for the Wandu golden core fruit.
Soon, a middle-aged man in his forties appeared on top of Lin Yi’s head on his flying spirit beast. He looked down at the ground and landed in front of Lin Yi.
The middle-aged man looked at Lin Yi coldly,”The Mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the Oriole behind. I didn’t expect that a little sparrow like you would beat me to it. What are you waiting for? Hurry up and take it out!”
“What is it?” Lin Yi pretended to be confused.
“Hmph, you’re just a peak late Foundation establishment cultivator, and you dare to play tricks on me? Fine, then you don’t have to take it. When you die, I’ll personally find it from you!” As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, his aura skyrocketed, and his already powerful aura became even more terrifying and violent.
Lin Yi was shocked-from the aura, this man was at least a mid-stage golden core!
Lin Yi thought that the strongest people who came to this mountain were at most Foundation Stage cultivators, and it wouldn’t be easy for them to meet a golden core stage cultivator. After all, which golden core stage cultivator would lower themselves to come to a place like this to collect herbs?
But he didn’t expect that he would not only meet a Jindan expert, but also a middle Jindan expert. This was an unprecedented strong enemy!
Lin Yi was still in shock when the middle-aged man made his move. With a casual wave of his hand, a huge claw formed from pure energy appeared above Lin Yi’s head without warning.
If it wasn’t for Lin Yi’s quick reaction and butterfly microsteps, he would’ve been heavily injured or even killed by this attack!
A middle jiedan stage expert was indeed not to be trifled with! Lin Yi’s heart froze, but before he could let out a breath of relief, two more giant claws came at him, followed by the middle-aged man’s cold smile. “You’re only at the peak of the late Foundation establishment stage. To be able to escape from my claws, you’re not ordinary. It’s a pity that you won’t be able to escape death today!”
The two giant claws came from the left and right, not giving Lin Yi the chance to react and Dodge. Even with butterfly microstep, he couldn’t completely avoid it this time. Running away would only lead to death. Helplessly, Lin Yi had to brace himself and face it head on.
The 28th style of the wild fire Eight Trigrams palm! Lin Yi gritted his teeth as he chose one of the claws and slammed it out. He followed closely behind, ready to break out of the encirclement. This was the strongest skill he had at the moment. If he couldn’t even break through the claw, he would be in deep trouble.
BOOM! The wild fire Eight Trigram palm hit The Giant Claw head-on without any suspense. The unparalleled brutal Zhen Qi collided wildly, instantly setting off a terrible storm. The grass and trees within a radius of a thousand feet were all flattened. The storm caused by the powerful Zhen Qi swept up into the sky, covering the sky and the sun for a moment, as if the end of the world had come.
“Eh? It’s no less than the power of an early jiedan stage cultivator. Where did you come from?” The middle-aged man could not help but frown.
An ordinary expert at the peak of the late stage of the foundation building realm wouldn’t be able to leave a complete corpse with a single claw, let alone resist his giant claw. This kid in front of him was a complete anomaly.
However, even if it was comparable to the power of the early jiedan stage, compared with him, who was a real master of the middle jiedan stage, it was still a long way off. They were not on the same level at all.
Bang! Bang! In the chaos, Lin Yi’s body flew back like an arrow, and he spat out a mouthful of bright red blood. He’d already suffered quite a heavy internal injury.
The twenty-eight forms of the wild fire Eight Trigram palm couldn’t block the claw at all, and only nullified a part of its power. Although Lin Yi wasn’t killed directly, his internal organs were all shifted from the impact. His stomach was in a mess, and the situation was worrying.
“Oh? He actually didn’t die? You little brat, you’ve really made me look at you in a new light. A mere peak late Foundation Stage being able to hold on until now, you can be considered a rare genius. It’s just a pity that I’ve never understood how to cherish talent. What’s more embarrassing is that my greatest hobby is to kill you so-called geniuses!” The middle-aged man sneered.
As he spoke, the man’s expression turned extremely cold and fierce. Two more giant claws appeared out of thin air, and this time, Lin Yi could even hear the faint roar of an ancient beast!
Lin Yi’s face changed. He ignored the pain in his organs and activated the butterfly microsteps with all his might.
BOOM! Plants and vegetation flew everywhere as Lin Yi was hit by The Giant Claw again. He was sent flying by the pure energy again, and his already serious internal injuries worsened.
“If this continues, I’ll definitely die today!” Lin Yi knew that he was in a life or death situation-if he couldn’t come up with an effective plan, he’d die Here in the next moment.
“Hmph, you still don’t want to give up? However, I like to see geniuses like you struggling in death’s door. It’s really satisfying! Hahahaha!” The middle-aged man laughed, pleased with himself. He was ready to strike again and kill Lin Yi.
Chapter 1832: Chapter 1830-explanation
“You’ll understand when you hear me out whether our an family has done anything wrong to you!” Jianwen said.
Mengyao turned around and walked towards the living room. Yushu was looking at Jianwen up and down, giving him a chill. Was she planning something bad again? An Jianwen had been tricked a few times.
In fact, Chen Yushu didn’t mean to trick him. She was just guessing whether this guy was innocent or not.
“Alright, you can speak your mind now!” Mengyao said.
“Yaoyao, you may think that uncle Chu’s bankruptcy and his suicide were caused by the an family, but we’re innocent. My father was even scolded by Grandpa for lending money to uncle Chu!” Jianwen smiled bitterly.”If it wasn’t for grandpa’s love for me, your villa would’ve been taken back!”
“The business is already under your family’s name. What else are you not satisfied with?” Mengyao asked.
“Uncle Chu’s business and pengzhan industries” shares have all been transferred to our an family, but Yaoyao, have you ever thought that my father lent your father three billion Yuan? do you think the pengzhan industries “shares and the real estate add up to three billion Yuan? Even if it’s more than 3 billion, we’re taking out cash, and we’re buying back shares and properties. This is equivalent to losing a lot!” Jianwen explained,”after all, a business isn’t money before it’s sold. Shares, if the business doesn’t run, it won’t be able to earn back its capital. But now, our an family lost three billion, and even our own business is affected. Overall, we are also victims!”
“You mean, the three billion you lent my father is gone too, and it’s not in your pockets?” Mengyao, naturally, didn’t believe him.
“Yaoyao, to be honest, it was my father who asked your uncle Chu to do this project. Perhaps it’s because of this that you misunderstood!” “But later on, my father tried to persuade uncle Chu to stop, but he was like a demon. He wouldn’t listen to my father no matter what my father said. My father couldn’t reject him because of his old friend, so he took the risk and lent him the money …” Jianwen said.
“Daddy is still in the hospital, unconscious. How can I believe you when you’re saying this?” Mengyao said, unmoved.
“I knew you wouldn’t believe me …” Jianwen shook his head helplessly.”But it’s okay, Yaoyao. Our company’s phone calls are all recorded. If you really don’t believe me, I can get someone to play the recording for you to listen to!”
“A recording? Is that true?” Mengyao wasn’t so sure anymore-was her father really that stubborn? Back then, when she called her father, he seemed to be crazy too, and when uncle Fu tried to persuade him, he didn’t seem to care …
“Our family’s company is different from your father ‘s. There are three people in charge-my grandfather, my uncle, and my father. Sometimes, when there’s a mistake in the decision-making process, we have to find out who made the decision. In order to prevent people from denying that they don’t have any evidence, we recorded all the phone calls …” Jianwen was obviously starting to talk nonsense. In the an family’s business, other than old master an, only an Mingyue had the final say. An Jianwen had a lot of power.
“Then … Bring it over for me to listen …” Chu Mengyao hesitated. It was impolite to check the recording of someone else’s company, but Chu Mengyao didn’t believe that an Jianwen really had the recording so she had to confirm it herself.
“Alright, I’ll talk to my father about it …” Jianwen didn’t reject the offer. He took out his phone and called Mingyue …
After an Mingyue finished the call, Chu Mengyao wasn’t even sure herself. Was the an family really innocent? Otherwise, why would he be so confident?
Of course, even though the an family was suspicious, they could not rule out the possibility that they were innocent!
“Then why did you make money before and lose everything later?” Mengyao asked.
“Sigh, it wasn’t supposed to be a loss, but for some reason, uncle Chu suddenly wanted to withdraw one billion. It affected the early stage of the plan and messed it up. So, not only did we not get the one billion back, but we lost everything …” Jianwen spread his hands and said regretfully.
“What? Was it because of the withdrawal of funds … That you lost it?” Chu Mengyao was stunned. She never thought that the root cause of her father’s bankruptcy would be his withdrawal of funds! Although an Jianwen’s words couldn’t be trusted right now, Chu Mengyao still fell into deep self-blame!
Was it because of him? If he hadn’t called his father to ask for one billion Yuan, would his father suddenly withdraw his funds? Was all of this caused by him?
Uncle Fu didn’t mention this before because he didn’t want to upset Mengyao. He was sure that the an family was behind this, and that the withdrawal was just an excuse.
But Jianwen wanted Mengyao to hate Lin Yi, so he said,”Yeah, for this kind of financial speculation, the most taboo thing is to withdraw funds after setting up a trap. This will disrupt the original plan all of a sudden …”
“Is that so …” Chu Mengyao lowered her head, feeling down.
Jianwen was a little disappointed that Mengyao wasn’t complaining about Lin Yi, but he couldn’t say anything else. Mengyao would get suspicious if he did, and she wasn’t an idiot. It wasn’t easy for Jianwen to make her suspicious, so he wouldn’t want to ruin the good situation.
Soon, Jianwen’s phone received a few messages. He opened it and looked at it before turning to Mengyao. “It’s been sent over, I’ll play it for you!”
“Alright!” Mengyao nodded without hesitation.
“Pengzhan bro, why are you calling again? Didn’t we just talk? “I’ve sent the current profits to your email, see if you’ve received it …”Jianwen’s phone started playing the recording …
At first, it was just a normal conversation, but towards the end, Chu Mengyao’s face changed slightly!
“Pengzhan bro, as an old neighbor, I’m telling you that futures are risky, not the guaranteed profit you think it is! It’s normal for others to suffer losses when you profit, so why don’t you stop when you’re done?”
