613 There’s Always Someone Better?
Moreover, as an ace at the peak of the Celestial Realm, the distance he could teleport each time was at most a hundred miles.
Lin Qiye’s ability to travel a thousand miles instantly and even bring his opponent along was beyond his understanding.
This piqued his interest in Lin Qiye, and he immediately gave up on keeping him as a prisoner.
“Please don’t blame us, Comrade Lin. We’ve just escaped the demons’ encirclement, and my friends’ emotions may not be too stable yet. If we’ve offended you in any way, please forgive us.”
Hall Master Qi apologized with a sincere look.
Other people might not be able to find Lin Qiye’s location, but he could.
However, it did not make him look down on Lin Qiye. On the contrary, he paid more attention to him.
Under the careful inspection of his spiritual sense, he could see everything within a range of thousands of miles, including many hidden formations.
He didn’t know the specific effects of those formations, but he could sense the terrifying energy contained in them.
Combined with Lin Qiye’s method of controlling the Earth Immortal Realm elder and teleporting the purple-robed Hall Master…
Hall Master Qi was almost sure that as long as Lin Qiye was within this array, he would be able to display strength not weaker than that of a powerhouse in the Celestial Realm.
Lin Qiye also noticed Hall Master Qi could see through his position, so he stopped hiding and appeared in front of him.
“Hall Master Qi, right? I see that your subordinates don’t seem very willing to listen to you.”
As he listened to Lin Qiye’s sarcastic remarks, Hall Master Qi’s eyes flashed with a cold light.
It was not because of Lin Qiye but because what he said had hit him where it hurt.
Ever since the disappearance of the High Gods, Hall Master Hong had become the undisputed leader of the Heavenly God Palace.
Although he was also an ace at the peak of the Celestial Realm, his prestige in the Heavenly God Palace was several times lower than that of Hall Master Hong.
Now that Hall Master Hong had died, he naturally became the group’s core.
However, the weight of this core was still somewhat weak.
Of the other fourteen Hall Masters, half of them did not respect him as much as he had imagined.
In the entire group, only a third of the people were willing to lower their stance and obey him.
“Comrade Lin must be joking. They are all companions of the Heavenly God Palace, not my subordinates.”
Hall Master Qi kept addressing Lin Qiye as ‘Comrade’ as if they were old friends who had not seen each other for many years.
Although he said those people were his companions, he had already begun to plan something in his heart.
The other Hall Masters and their followers did not say anything when they heard Hall Master Qi’s words.
After all, no one wanted to have a new target above their heads.
Lin Qiye observed the reaction of the people from the Heavenly God Palace.
He no longer harped on the previous matter but turned around and smiled.
“Then it’s my misunderstanding. Since it’s all a misunderstanding, I’ll make some arrangements. Everyone, please rest here for a while.”
“Alright. Then I’ll have to trouble Comrade Lin.” Hall Master Qi thanked him with a smile.
The two continued to chat about some random topics.
Only after Lin Qiye’s fiend soldiers had arranged the lodgings of the Heavenly God Palace’s powerhouses did they bid each other farewell and leave.
At night, Lin Qiye entered a secret room shielded from detection. He contacted Gui Nian and the others, preparing to hold a meeting with the four kings.
The people from the Heavenly God Palace also gathered and sealed the space, making it impossible for the outside world to investigate.
“Hall Master Qi, what are you thinking? Even if that Holy Infant Temple Master has some tricks up his sleeve, he’s only a little fellow in the Human Immortal Realm. If we tie him up, won’t it save us a lot of unnecessary trouble?”
