"This is just my conservative estimate, his true strength is beyond our knowledge,"
Baili Feng shook his head, "We should still try to reconcile with him."
Seeing Baili Feng had already spoken thus.
Cang Lei could only swallow his pride, walked up to Lin Yi, and forced a smile on his face, saying, "Brother Lin!"
"Regarding today’s matter, the Cang Family admits defeat!"
"We hope that Brother Lin can disregard past grievances and make peace with our Cang Family!"
Seeing this, Cang Yun behind him couldn’t help but panic.
He had suffered such a big loss at Lin Yi’s hands, and it was just going to be left at that?
Cang Lei glowered fiercely at Cang Yun, wishing he could step forward and give this youngster a couple of hard slaps to relieve his anger.
If it weren’t for your trouble, would I need to humble myself to this extent, cleaning up your mess?
"I didn’t suffer much loss, but the Lin Family did,"
Lin Yi said indifferently, "Apologize properly to the people of the Lin Family. They are the true victims."
Cang Lei immediately bowed to Ling Zhong, "The young scamp Cang Yun offended the two daughters of the Ling Family, and I deeply apologize!"
"I hope Family Head Ling has a large and generous heart to forgive Cang Yun’s offenses!"
After finishing, Cang Lei then looked toward Cang Yun not far away, "Cang Yun, get over here now!"
Cang Yun reluctantly walked over and was immediately kicked in the calf by Cang Lei, screamed in pain, and knelt down in front of Ling Wan and her sister.
At this moment, Cang Yun instantly portrayed a pitiful figure, devoid of his earlier arrogance. Even his elder brother Cang Lei was kneeling, how could he dare to think otherwise?
"Please stand up, Second Young Master Cang."
Ling Zhong promptly helped Cang Yun up from the ground. Lin Yi had made the Cang Family submit through his strength, but who was the Lin Family to dare to make Cang Family members kneel and apologize in front of them?
"My Family dares not blame Second Young Master Cang, just let those two daughters of mine go..."
"I won’t do it again!"
"Definitely not anymore!"
Under Lin Yi’s ominous gaze, Cang Yun shook his head like a sieve and hastily assured Ling Zhong.
These two sisters from the Lin Family, they are Lin Yi’s women!
If he had known earlier that Lin Yi was such a formidable person, he would never have messed with the Lin Family!
Ling Zhong nodded, "With Second Young Master’s assurance, I feel relieved."
He didn’t know that Cang Yun took Lin Yi’s previous words seriously and really considered Lin Yi’s claim over the Ling sisters, daring not to reconsider them.
Seeing that the Lin Family finally had nothing more to say, Cang Lei’s hanging heart also returned to his stomach, and he then bowed to Lin Yi, "Brother Lin, since the matters here have concluded, we will take our leave!"
Lin Yi nodded, signaling they could leave.
Having finally resolved this thorny issue, Cang Lei promptly waved his hand, ready to lead Cang Yun and others away!
However, just as they were about to leave, Baili Feng approached Lin Yi, bowed, and said, "Brother Lin! May we talk for a moment?"
Lin Yi nodded, "Of course!"
"Brother Lin, with such strength yet so unrecognized in our Yun Country, you must not be from our country, are you?"
"I come from Jin Country,"
Lin Yi casually fabricated.
Shi Country and Yun Country were adjacent, and there was always the risk that Baili Feng might have some understanding of the younger generation of Shi Country that could expose his identity. Jin Country, on the other hand, was located to the north of Shi Country, with almost no interaction with Yun Country, so the likelihood of being exposed was low.
Surprise appeared on Baili Feng’s face.
He indeed didn’t know much about that country!
"However, no matter which country Brother Lin comes from, in one month, the Emperor of Yun Country will hold the Talent Night Banquet, inviting all the talented young people within Yun Country. If Brother Lin is free, you can come to the Cloud Country Capital to attend this grand event."
"Talent Night Banquet?"
A flicker of intrigue passed through Lin Yi’s eyes.
Baili Feng continued, "The Talent Night Banquet will gather the strongest young stars of our Yun Country. And it is said that many of the powerful noble families in the Imperial Capital of Yun Country place great importance on this banquet, planning to select suitable dragon riders on that night."
"Of course, that’s just a side note. The most important thing is the chance to compete on the same stage with the strongest young talents of Yun Country—a precious opportunity. What do you think, Brother Lin?"
Lin Yi nodded, "If I’m free, I’ll go have a look!"
Baili Feng’s eyes lit up, indicating that the young generation of Yun Country was about to face a formidable rival!
If Lin Yi were to appear, the pattern of the Talent Night Banquet might be disrupted!
"Then I will wait for Brother Lin’s arrival in the Imperial City."
Having said this, he clasped his fists at Lin Yi and then turned and left.
"Lin Xiu, are you leaving?"
Hearing the conversation between Lin Yi and Baili Feng, Ling Wan approached, her eyes wistfully gazing at Lin Yi.
Lin Yi nodded, "It’s time to go!"
"Since I’ve come to Yun Country, naturally I want to explore more."
"Can you stay a few more days?"
Lin Yi promptly refused Ling Wan.
Yun Country was just a temporary place for his cultivation. He needed to quickly enhance his strength and then return to Shi Country!
Hearing this, Ling Wan quietly nodded, her beautiful eyes slightly sad, but she soon rallied her spirits and smiled, "You just arrived in Yun Country and are alone out there, so be extra careful..."
Lin Yi smiled, "I will."
Looking at the young girl in front of him who cared deeply for him, Lin Yi also felt a warmth in his heart. If he didn’t carry so much on his shoulders, staying in the Ling Family as a son-in-law might not be a bad option.
Under Ling Zhong’s orders, Ling Wan saw Lin Yi out of Yang City.
Lin Yi clasped his fists slightly towards Ling Wan and then led Little Jin, preparing to embark on a long journey.
But just at that moment, suddenly a fragrant breeze came rushing towards him and, to Lin Yi’s surprise, Ling Wan boldly ran up to him, her soft red lips brushing swiftly against his like a dragonfly touching water.
Then, with cheeks flushed red, she fled like the wind.
Ling Wan’s voice contained deep regret.
She clearly knew that a man as outstanding as Lin Yi didn’t belong to her, but having left a mark of her own on him was already enough!
However, Lin Yi still stood dazed in his spot, not yet recovered from Ling Wan’s fragrant kiss.
"What’s the matter, kid, did it feel that great?"
Seeing Lin Yi savoring the moment, Little Jin covered her mouth and giggled.
Lin Yi’s face suddenly darkened, the corners of his mouth twitching fiercely, "Damn, there goes my first kiss..."
