Chapter 1335 – Xiaoke’s Suspicions

Lin Yi didn’t care if these people followed him, but Lingshan did give him a look, hinting him.

Lin Yi remembered suddenly that this was Lingshan and Yutian’s mission this time- they were here to catch these guys, so they were important to him!

Lingshan didn’t want to go tomb raiding on her own, that was a bonus to their mission. She wanted to be monitoring these people, so she’d be able to call for backup surrounding them at the first notice! She was worried these guys would give up after seeing how dangerous the tomb was!

If that were the case, then it’d be a lot harder to apprehend them if they left. Lingshan wanted to go back first.

Lin Yi sighed. He was worried, but remembering that Xiaoxiao was already frozen, it shouldn’t be a problem if they postponed one day. The tomb wouldn’t run away or anything, and even if these guys gave up he could raid the tomb himself.f

“Alright, let’s go back then. We’ll make a plan!” Lin Yi nodded.

Old Hao let out a breath of relief, his face friendlier as well. “We’ll go as a team then- what if something went wrong, after all.”

Everyone went up by the machinery, although this time Old Keng and Mister Qiu weren’t with them!

Mister Qiu was fine, but Old Keng had men up there! How would Old Hei handle this? Or, did he already contact his men into killing Old Keng’s men?

Old Keng’s closest aides weren’t there anymore by the time they got up, with only some of his men turning to Old Hei’s team.

That was how the world was- Old Keng was dead, and there was no reason for these men to fight for him to their deaths.

But Lin Yi didn’t care about all this. Old Hei was a tragic chess piece as well- though it seemed as if he got some benefits, killing Old Keng and getting his men, Lin Yi felt that he was being used as well!

There was an immense net covering everyone here, with a puppetmaster behind them pushing them according to his plans.

Lin Yi looked at these thieves coldly and didn’t say anything, leaving for his tent with Lingshan and Yutian. After two steps, he turned around to Xiaoke. “Be careful. This place is dangerous, and with that little skill you’ve got, it’s best if you go home!”

“Ah?” Xiaoke paused- she wanted to say something, but Lin Yi left already.

Nobody paid any heed to that, that was how the couple was, after all, barking at people like that. Old Hei thought that Lin Yi was just making a statement about how useless Xiaoke was, indirectly targeting that Old Hei!

Could it be that they didn’t like the splitting of the rewards? It was normal; perhaps, since Old Keng died today, he had a fifteen percent extra. Were they interested in that?

Old Hei’s face was a bit dark as he thought about that- he knew that it would be impossible to raid this tomb without Lin Yi’s help now. They even almost got lost today! If he didn’t give Lin Yi more benefits, he might just up and leave. Then it would be completely hopeless.

With their personality, it really was something unreasonable that they would do. OLd Hei thought about it and decided to give a part of this benefit to Lin Yi. After all, he was an important team member.

“Everyone, get some rest, come to my tent later, and we’ll talk about the plan!” Old Hei said to everyone. “Hope that you’d give some more ideas later, Old Hao…”

“Hmph! Some people already don’t care to listen to what I have to say!” Old Hao hmphed, pissed off as he looked at Lin Yi’s leaving figure. “Old Hei, don’t bring people who don’t follow the plan next time!”

“Old Hao… That’s how the couple is, but they’re capable people, that’s for sure. We need them for this raid…” Old Hei said. He was in a difficult position, but he was already a bit displeased with Old Hao already. He wouldn’t have told him if he’d known about this, not only was he not helping, he was causing some trouble!

But now that he was here already, he couldn’t just ask him to leave or anything. It was a bit troubling.

“He just got lucky, not a big deal.” Old Hao hmphed.

Lin Yi and Lingshan and Yutian went back into the tent, with Yutian checking for bugs right away. Lin Yi waved a hand. “It’s fine, don’t waste your strength- he’s not so dumb as to use this tactic twice to irritate people. He doesn’t want to piss us off yet.”

Lin Yi left out a piece of information, and that was the fact that his jade didn’t alert him at all. The tent was safe.

“You’re right- they still need you to help them with the raid, but Lin Yi, how did you know which path to take?” Yutian nodded, surprised as he thought about what happened today. He knew that Lin Yi was good at stuff like this, but there weren’t any hints or anything in the tomb, yet Lin Yi found the correct way!

“Instinct- you believe that?” Lin Yi smiled, not really wanting to get into the explanation of his jade. He just shrugged.

Yutian paused but nodded. “Yeah, of course. Why not?”

“Ha…” Lin Yi smiled. “Alright, let’s not talk about this- let’s talk about the tomb. You guys should be prepared. There’s probably a practitioner here!”

“Practitioner? You mean the one who killed Mister Qiu?” Lingshan and Yutian weren’t stupid- they guessed the problem as well. “Is that Mister Qiu really a Golden class early phase peak?”

“Yes, Old Hei didn’t lie.” Lin Yi nodded. “Someone who can kill him with one hit so silently can only be an Earth class, or maybe a Mystic late phase peak, although even I have no guarantee of just killing Mister Qiu completely silently…
