Chapter 1659 – Suppression

Chapter 1659 - Suppression

Zhao Hai was aware of the happenings in the Handyman Hall. Everything that Elder Hu said and did was intentional. Since Jin Zhengyin was going to look for him, Zhao Hai already made the proper preparations.

Zhang Hao and the others didn’t know that Zhao Hai was using Undead in order to take out the trash. Because of this, they didn’t inform Zhao Hai to make preparations. Instead, they told Elder Hu to expect the arrival of Jin Zhengyin.

Since Zhang Hao informed Elder Hu, Elder Hu told Jin Zhengyin that Zhang Feng admired Zhao Hai instead of the usual reason that Zhang Feng lost money betting on him.

Jin Zhengyin didn’t believe what Elder Hu said. This was because in Jin Fengyin’s view, sending people to the Ignored Valley as a punishment would only work on people from the Great World of Cultivation. Zhao Hai came from the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield, it was already an improvement for him to be in the Great World of Cultivation, even if he was in a garbage dump.

Jin Zhengyin was too familiar with Zhang Feng. He clearly knew that if Zhang Feng appreciated Zhao Hai, then he definitely wouldn’t send Zhao Hai to the Ignored Valley. Instead, he would keep him by his side and train him, just like Jin Zhengyin back then. So he didn’t believe what Elder Hu said.

But what Jin Zhengyin didn’t know was that Zhang Feng also knew him. Zhang Feng took Jin Zhengyin to the Inner Sect from the Outer Sect. Moreover, he gave Jin Zhengyin careful guidance. So how could Zhang Feng be unaware of Jin Zhengyin’s ambition? It was just that Zhang Feng didn’t expect Jin Zhengyin to be so cold as to betray him.

The reason Zhang Feng asked Elder Hu to say such a thing to Jin Zhengyin was to tell Jin Zhengyin in another way what kind of person Zhao Hai was. This way, Jin Zhengyin wouldn’t be suspicious of Zhao Hai.

As for the possibility that Sima Yin Long would win Zhao Hai over, Zhang Feng believed that it was very small. Zhao Hai was a Battle Slave with the position of Outer Disciple. Although Jin Zhengyin was also from the Outer Sect, he was already strong and was able to be promoted to the Inner Sect. Sima Yin Long would certainly win him over. It was completely different compared to Zhao Hai.

Not long after Zhao Hai sent the baskets back, there was a flash of white light in the transmission formation. Then Elder Hu and Jin Zhengyin appeared. Zhao Hai hastily gave a salute to Elder Hu, “I have seen Elder Hu.”

Elder Hu nodded, then he gestured towards Jin Zhengyin and said, “This is Brother Jin Zhengyin. Call him Martial Uncle.”

Zhao Hai gave Jin Zhengyin a salute and said, “I have seen Martial Uncle.”

Jin Zhengyin nodded and then turned his head to look at the Ignored Valley. Although there was a pile of garbage here, the valley was very deep so it wasn’t evident. There’s nothing good to see in this place. After taking a glance, Jin Zhengyin turned back to Zhao Hai and said, “How are you doing in this place?”

Zhao Hai wore a respectful expression as he quickly replied, “I’m doing very well. Thanks for Martial Uncle’s care.”

Hearing Zhao Hai, Jin Zhengyin couldn’t help but frown. He could hear the unwillingness in Zhao Hai’s words, which oftentimes represented ambition. If he let Zhao Hai go to Sima Yin Long’s side, then it would mean that he would have one more opponent.

Jin Zhengyin wasn’t a broad-hearted person, so he didn’t have any favorable impression of Zhao Hai. Naturally, he also has no malice towards him. But for Zhao Hai to be selected and promoted to the Outer Sect, it showed that he has talent. Such a person, Jin Zhengyin has to be more careful about.

Jin Zhengyin has followed Sima Yin Long for some time. He knew clearly what kind of person Sima Yin Long was. If Sima Yin Long discovered that Zhao Hai was a material worth training, then he would train Zhao Hai with his full power. When the time comes, Zhao Hai would become a real threat.

Jin Zhengyin dislikes being in a position where he feels threatened. Even if this person was as harmless as an animal at this time. Jin Zhengyin unconsciously thought about himself and Zhang Feng. Zhang Feng has been kind to him in the beginning, and now, although his words towards Jin Zhengyin were cold, he still couldn’t do anything against him. Moreover, Jin Zhengyin still has a possibility of becoming a Core Disciple while Zhang Feng was stuck in the Inner Sect.

This point caused Jin Zhengyin to be proud. And this was also where most of his attention was pointed to. He wouldn’t allow anyone to threaten his position. So when he heard unwillingness in Zhao Hai’s voice, he immediately knit his brows.

However, Jin Zhengyin’s expression quickly turned to normal as he nodded to Zhao Hai and said, “Then, you take care.” After he said that he turned around and walked towards the transmission formation.

Elder Hu paid attention to Zhao Hai. He found that Zhao Hai had a sarcastic smile on his face the moment Jin Zhengyin turned around and left. Elder Hu immediately understood, Zhao Hai deliberately toned his words.

Thinking about this, Elder Hu couldn’t help but turn cold. He didn’t think that Zhao Hai could scheme this deep. It seems like Zhao Hai already decided to follow Zhang Feng. However, Elder Hu didn’t dislike Zhao Hai’s method. After all, he could also be regarded as someone on Zhang Feng’s side.

After Elder Hu and Jin Zhengyin returned to the Handyman Hall, they exchanged greetings before Jin Zhengyin left. As soon as Jin Zhengyin left, two Outer Disciples whispered between each other, “That was Martial Uncle Jin Zhengyin. Elder Hu, why did he come here?”

Another whispered, “You don’t know? Martial Uncle Jin came here to see that hopeless guy sent to the Ignored Valley.”

The previous cultivator answered, “You mean that unlucky fellow? Does Martial Uncle Jin want to save him? I heard that Martial Uncle Jin and First Senior Brother Zhang don’t like each other. First Senior Brother Zhang personally ordered that person to be sent to the Ignored Valley.”

Then the other person whispered, “That guy caused the First Senior Brother to lose a lot of money. Moreover, that fellow is very strong. I heard that he’s strong enough to win all 10 battles and be promoted to the Outer Sect. Because of this, First Senior Brother promoted him ahead of time and then threw him to the Ignored Valley to fend for himself. You might not know, but when Martial Uncle Jin came over, Elder Hu said that the First Senior Brother admired that unlucky kid, so he threw him into the Ignored Valley to hide. As for whether Martial Uncle Jin would save him, that’s none of our business.”

Jin Zhengyin didn’t fly too fast, so he naturally heard the conversation of the cultivators. At the same time, he heard other cultivators talking about the same time. It seems like Zhao Hai’s situation wasn’t a secret in the Handyman Hall.

Jin Zhengyin quickly returned to where Sima Yin Long was. In the Black Tiger Gang, The top Core Disciples would occupy the tallest mountains. In any case, the Black Tiger Gang has a lot of mountains.

And since Sima Yin Long was among the top ten Core Disciples, he naturally has his own mountain where he and his subordinates live. This was also one of the benefits the sect gave to the Core Disciples.

Besides the top ten Core Disciples, only Zhang Feng has a mountain of his own. However, his mountain was a bit far away from the top ten core disciples. But because he has been working outside for many years, he rarely returns to his mountain.

Sima Yin Long’s mountain wasn’t very big. Also it was built differently from those in the World of Cultivation. In the World of Cultivation, people would generally dig caves for residences. In the Black Tiger Gang, most of the residences were built above ground. Sima Yin Long’s mountain had a lot of beautifully designed buildings. If you look at it as a whole, it would be like a giant dragon that wrapped itself around the mountain. The buildings were covered with golden tiles, adding an effect of scales to the dragon.

At the position of the dragon’s head was a building ten stories high. There was a square in front of this building where a tiger ship was parked. The huge tiger ship was a contrast to the tall building. It looked like a lion and a tiger roaring at each other.

There were a thousand people occupying this mountain. More than a hundred of them were serving disciples responsible for cleaning and other chores in the building. The rest were mostly Outer Disciples under Sima Yin Long. The strength of these disciples were pretty good. These would be the people who would operate the tiger ship whenever Sima Yin Long went out.

However, Sima Yin Long’s true power were the hundred or so Inner Disciples. These Inner Disciples were the strongest weapons that Sima Yin Long had. Naturally, their strengths were extraordinary.

Sima Yin Long lived in the tall building in the middle of the mountain while the Inner Disciples lived not far off. The Outer Disciples lived farther away. As for the serving disciples, they lived on the outer edges of the mountain.

The mountain also has its own Mountain Guarding Formation. Moreover, this formation was quite advanced. It must be known that even Core Disciples competed against themselves. Therefore, a Mountain Guarding Formation was required.

Jin Zhengyin was one of Sima Yin Long’s favored men. Because of this, the serving disciples and the outer disciples immediately gave him a salute when they met him. Even other inner disciples would still give him face. Jin Zhengyin gave them all a nod before he flew towards the tall building.

After arriving at the square outside the tall building, Jin Zhengyin descended and then walked in. There were two outer disciples defending the doors to the building. They weren’t here to protect the building, instead they were assigned to see who to allow passage.

Seeing Jin Zhengyin arrive, the two outer disciples immediately gave a salute. Then one of them said, “Senior Brother Jin, the Lord said that you should go to his quiet room as soon as you arrive.”

Jin Zhengyin nodded before he walked into the building. The building had ten stories. Naturally, Sima Yin Long’s quiet room was on the tenth floor. Since this building forbade using any techniques, Jin Zhengyin can only use the stairs to go up.

The tenth floor was divided into two rooms. The first room was the quiet room while the other was the lounge. These two rooms were very big, not any smaller than a thousand square meters. The doors of the rooms were cast in bronze and were carved with a soaring dragon. They looked very imposing.
