Chapter 4078: Hongzhong’s return
Translator: 549690339
If this kind of thing were to spread out, it would simply shock a large number of people’s jaws. No matter how high one’s talent and potential were, no matter how good the assistance of medicinal pills was, one could only advance step by step on the path of cultivation. It could not be said that rising two levels in a row was unprecedented, but it was also rare in the world.
Lin Yi’s unbelievable performance, which no one knew about, was due to the four peak-grade foundation-level golden cores, but more importantly, it was due to his diligent training. Only by accumulating and accumulating could one’s true power be unleashed.
Feeling the change in the quality of his pure Qi, Lin Yi couldn’t help but feel that with his current strength, if he were to face a master like Zheng Tianjie again, he would have the strength to fight him head on.
Zheng Tianjie was a golden core stage expert. Even if he was only in the early stage of the Golden core stage, he was an existence that was completely above all Foundation establishment stage experts.
Foundation Stage and golden core stage were two completely different concepts. According to the common people’s knowledge, even the strongest Foundation Stage cultivator would not be a match for a golden core stage cultivator, even if the person was an Alchemist.
There might be a difference in strength between Sky Class full phase and Foundation early phase-after all, there was a gap between Sky Class and Foundation, and if one wasn’t used to it, it was possible that they’d be defeated-but golden cores were different.
However, Lin Yi didn’t feel that way at all. It would be fine if he didn’t fight with a golden core Master before, but he really felt that with his current strength, he wouldn’t lose even if he fought Zheng Tianjie face to face!
Lin Yi had a strong feeling that he’d be able to see for himself whether a golden core was invincible in front of a Foundation Stage cultivator.
After Lin Yi, Shangguan LAN ‘er and ning Xuefei had also broken through. Shangguan LAN’ er had broken through to the mid-stage of the Foundation Stage with the help of her golden core and Shangguan Tianhua’s personal guidance. Now, she had even broken through to the peak of the mid-stage of the Foundation Stage.
As for ning Xuefei, although she did not like to cultivate, her progress was not any less than Shangguan LAN ‘er’ s. She was now at the peak of the mid-stage Foundation establishment realm.
From refining to breaking through, the three of them stayed in their rooms for an entire day and night, not stepping out of their rooms at all. When they finally opened the door and walked out one after another, the five core disciples who were ordered to protect the two misses were looking at Lin Yi in a different light.
‘One on two, and two princesses at that. This kid is too awesome. He’s been hitting on girls to this extent. Even if he doesn’t do anything else in his life, his future is still limitless …’
Shangguan LAN ‘er and ning Xuefei didn’t notice the weird look in everyone’s eyes. Only Lin Yi grinned awkwardly. He seemed to have done something that made these people’s imagination run wild!
As he grew stronger, the Golden core stage Masters weren’t that far away in his eyes anymore. These Masters had their own emotions, and they had a gossiping heart. He could only hope that they wouldn’t spread this around, or he’d be pushed to the teeth of the storm again.
With nothing else to do, Lin Yi brought the two girls to the Hong Chamber of Commerce to see if there was any news on the life phase mushrooms.
However, as soon as he walked through the door, he saw a familiar figure. Lin Yi couldn’t help but stop and said happily,””Elder Hong, when did you come back?”
Seeing Lin Yi, Hong Zhong’s face lit up as well. He quickly came up to Lin Yi and sized him up, clicking his tongue in wonder,”Lin shaoxia, it’s been a long time since we last met, but you’ve changed again! The speed at which you improve your strength has really broadened this old man’s horizons. Congratulations!”
“Grandpa Hong, you only see Little Junior Brother, don’t you see us?” Shangguan LAN ‘er came up from behind and said with a smile.
“Hehe, little LAN ‘er, no matter who I miss, I can’t miss you, little girl!” Hong Zhong chuckled and turned to ning Xuefei. He cupped his hands and said,””This must be Ms. Nishijima, right? it’s an honor to meet you. Come, come, please come upstairs!”
“You can call me Feifei, Grandpa Hong.” Ning Xuefei said with a sweet smile.
After the three of them were invited to the private room upstairs, Hong Zhong immediately asked people to set up a banquet. After catching up with each other, he personally apologized to ning Xuefei and Shangguan LAN ‘er on behalf of the Hong Chamber of Commerce. However, the two women didn’t take it to heart at all. Even if they held grudges, they would find si tsunami to settle the score and not the Hong Chamber of Commerce.
After that, Hong Zhong told Lin Yi why he came back to the North Island.”I won’t hide it from you, young hero Lin. I came back to the North Island on my own initiative. After such a big scandal, I had to come back to clean up the mess. I am now the Vice President and the manager of the North Island branch.”
Lin Yi blinked, confused.”With your connections in the North Island, elder Hong, although you are indeed the best person to clean up the mess, why does it sound like a demotion to be the branch manager?”
Under normal circumstances, if Hong Zhong was really here to help clean up the mess, he only needed to come forward and say a few good words. He did not need to hold the position of Branch Manager at all. Staying in the North Island for a long time and away from the core power of the Nakajima headquarters was not a good thing for him as the Vice President.
Lin Yi’s intuition told him that Hong Zhong wasn’t doing well in the middle Island.
As expected, Hong Zhong sighed and said,””Young hero Lin, you may not know this, but although I was promoted to Vice President due to my contributions and am considered a high-ranking official in the Hong Chamber of Commerce headquarters, I have been operating in the North Island for a long time and do not have a deep foundation in the headquarters. Therefore, when I went to Middle Island, I was immediately ostracized by the Executive Vice President and a group of people.”
Lin Yi’s eyelids twitched-this situation caught him off guard. A strong Dragon couldn’t suppress a local snake, not to mention that the man’s position and power were above Hong Zhong ‘s-he was a real local Dragon.
Hong Zhong took a sip of wine and continued,””I have a position but no real power. I can’t do anything at all. I’ve already been made a figurehead by their alliance. If I continue to stay, I’m afraid I’ll become a completely idle person. So, I can only take this opportunity to return to the North Island. At least I can have some autonomy this way.”
“It seems that the Hong Chamber of Commerce is also full of people!” Lin Yi sighed and consoled, “It’s fine. We’ll do it step by step. Elder Hong, tell me in detail when you have time. I’ll see if I can help.”
“Alright, but today’s main characters are the two young ladies. Let’s not talk about these unhappy things first. Come, let’s have a toast!” Hong Zhong said with a forced smile.
