6316 The continuation of the armistice agreement
A truce was just a truce-both sides didn’t take it seriously. The only thing that could keep the peace was their own concerns. This time, the wormhole pathway on the Sky Class Island was destroyed, causing them to lose contact with the center. That was why they took the opportunity to fight to the death.
Setting up the formation and talking had taken up a lot of time, and it was getting late. Lin Yi still had to go to the central Chamber of Commerce, so he bade farewell to Han Jing Jing and flew to Nakajima with his ghost speed wings.
Before dark, Lin Yi strolled into the cold central Chamber of Commerce. Kang Zhaoming was already impatient. He didn’t want to see Lin Yi again, but he couldn’t not wait for Lin Yi. He was very angry.
Seeing Lin Yi walk in, Kang Zhaoming couldn’t help but put on a smile and quickly walked up to him, “They’re here! Please come upstairs, Liang bro is waiting for you. ”
“MMH,” Lin Yi replied faintly, shaking off Zhaoming’s lead as he walked up. He knew where pinliang was, and didn’t need Zhaoming to lead the way.
Zhaoming’s face darkened as he hmphed quietly and followed behind Lin Yi. This negotiation seemed to be very important-he needed more information if he wanted to get into the higher-ups, so he decided to get in first.
He felt like he was on good terms with pinliang, and as long as pinliang didn’t kick him out, he’d be able to see what was going on. Maybe he’d be able to grab a chance to climb up the ranks.
“Zhong pinliang, I’m here. How do we sign the new truce agreement?” Lin Yi knew that Kang Zhaoming was following him, so he didn’t show any signs of intimacy when he pushed the door open.
“Lin Yi, come and sit down first. Our higher-ups will discuss the truce with you.” Pinliang glanced at Zhaoming, who had followed them in. He didn’t want Zhaoming to leave because he felt guilty about his relationship with Lin Yi.
As a result, Zhaoming was secretly praising pinliang for his good intentions. As expected, he went to a corner and stood there quietly.
Pinliang turned on the projection on his computer, and the person in charge of Sky Class Island, miss nie, appeared on the screen. Lin Yi couldn’t tell if this was the real miss nie or if it was just a clone.
“Lin Yi, I’m glad you’re here. We can start talking about the truce agreement now.” Miss NIE’s face was cold and didn’t seem to be too enthusiastic, as if Lin Yi had asked to come.
“Miss Ling, we haven’t seen each other for such a long time, and we haven’t even greeted each other. Isn’t it a little too quick to get to the point? Why don’t we have a casual chat first?” Lin Yi smiled faintly and sat down on the sofa casually, looking at miss nie on the screen. He knew that he would be able to gain something today!
The more desperate the opponent was, the calmer he had to be. Negotiation was also a game full of swords and blades. From the first words of the two, they had already entered this rhythm.
Miss Ling suddenly smiled, and her cold temperament was swept away.
“Of course. I heard that you recently participated in the spirit beast clan’s coronation ceremony on the southern island and became an external clan elder? You really are the center of attention wherever you go. It would be great if our Center had a young genius like you!” Miss nie wasn’t stingy with her praise for Lin Yi at all, not caring about how pinliang and the others were feeling.
People who didn’t know better would think that miss nie was trying to recruit Lin Yi, but only they knew that it was impossible. Ever since Lin Yi’s elders, they had been in a situation where they would fight to the death.
“Miss Ling’s news seems to be not timely enough. Didn’t the people you sent to the southern island report to you that I was being hunted down and ran back? By the way, I haven’t thanked the black bamboo hat guy from your Center in the South continent for taking care of me!” Lin Yi smiled faintly, emphasizing on the word “care.” He wasn’t really thanking her.
“Oh? Was it like this? I’m not too sure. You know that the southern island is too far away and we can’t establish an effective communication method, so there are many things I don’t know. I’ll ask about it later. ” Miss Ling gave a perfunctory reply, but no one knew if she was telling the truth.
Lin Yi laughed it off and only got to the point after a bit more nonsense.
“Miss Ling, let’s get back to the main topic. I didn’t think that there was a need to renew the truce agreement after it expired, but I wonder why you’ve asked me to come here?” Lin Yi smiled faintly, his face relaxed as he leaned back against the chair.
“Is there really no need? If it’s really not necessary, a busy man like you wouldn’t have come here. I heard that you’re in a hurry to the North Island to meet with the Shangguan family’s eldest miss, right? Is it appropriate to waste time here?” Miss Ling didn’t show any weakness and retorted in a light tone.
“I’m only here to listen to what you have to say on account of my two old classmates. Plus, I haven’t chatted with you for a long time, so I can at least take some time off. ” There was nothing wrong with Lin Yi bringing up pinliang and Zhaoming without any pressure.
However, Lin Yi was on his guard when miss nie mentioned meeting up with Shangguan LAN ‘er in the North Island. It seemed that Central’s spies were everywhere. Although the fact that he went to the East continent with Shangguan LAN’ er was not a secret, only a few people knew about it. If Central’s intelligence network found out about it, the consequences would be serious if they really pissed central off.
Lin Yi didn’t need to worry about his own safety, but the people he cared about would be in grave danger when they faced Central’s revenge.
“I’m really flattered. Should I thank you properly?” Although miss Ling said that she was flattered, there was no expression on her face.
Lin Yi knew that miss nie was trying to threaten him. It seemed that the destruction of the wormhole entrance was a huge blow to central, to the point that they had to resort to such a method.
“We’re already so familiar with each other, it’s too polite to say thank you. Alright, since miss Ling knows that I’m busy, let’s not waste any more time. Just follow last year’s terms, change the date, and re-sign it!” Lin Yi laughed coldly in his heart. He decided to stop beating around the bush and use his trump card.
Using last year’s agreement, the wormhole entrance to the center had been destroyed. How could they use last year’s agreement? Besides, central was in such a hurry to sign the contract with Lin Yi, all for the sake of the wormhole’s entrance.
That’s right, although they couldn’t find the entrance to the wormhole in Lin Yi’s hands yet, they could basically confirm that Lin Yi had a new one!
