Chapter 12520
"Die out there? How is that possible?"
Cheng Zhiyu simply couldn't understand those words.
In his deeply ingrained belief, his father, as one of the Five Saints of the aristocratic families, was the most powerful figure in Tianjun.
As long as he doesn't fight with the other five saints, he can do whatever he wants.
The Food Saint said coldly, "You think that the Ending Society is the only one behind this incident? There are people working together from the inside and outside, clearly trying to kill your old man, and you're still stupidly walking into it!"
Cheng Zhiyu still couldn't understand: "Working from within and without? Who is it?"
"..."
The Food Saint glanced at him, too lazy to continue the nonsense.
He used to think that his youngest son was just like him in every way, which is why he doted on him so much. He even told the people around him that he planned to let Cheng Zhiyu take over in the future.
But with this incident, the filter suddenly shattered.
No matter how you look at it, he's a complete coward.
How can someone like this possibly inherit the glory of the Culinary Saint lineage?
A hint of disgust flashed in the eyes of the Food Saint. He summoned Jiang Xuyan and calmly instructed, "From today onwards, confine him to the house. No one is to let him out without my permission."
Jiang Xuyan suppressed his shock and quickly nodded in agreement.
Cheng Zhiyu cried and begged for mercy, but the Food Saint didn't even bother to look at him, let alone soften his heart and let him go.
The Food Saint turned to Jiang Xuyan and said, "It's not just him. Everyone in our Food Saint lineage must be extra careful from now on, and we must never be used by those with ulterior motives again."
Jiang Xuyan frowned and asked, "Is Master worried that the other five sages might make some underhanded moves?"
"The tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease."
The Food Saint sighed: "If I hadn't been alert enough to sense the danger in advance, I might have perished at the final meeting."
Jiang Xuyan's eyelids twitched: "How is that possible?"
"Yeah, I also think it's impossible?"
The Food Saint's eyes flickered: "Even if that guy from the Termination Society manages to get a slight advantage over me, he definitely won't have a chance to completely eliminate me."
"To keep me here, you would need at least three experts of the same level to have even the slightest chance."
"In other words, besides him, at least two other people have already directly participated in this, and have even targeted me!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xuyan couldn't help but gasp.
According to this logic, at least half of the other four saints are evil!
If that's really the case, it's no exaggeration to say that the Food Saint lineage is currently in a precarious situation.
It's not impossible that the entire area could be completely wiped out if one isn't careful.
The most critical issue is that it's impossible to discern which of the other four saints is black and which is white in a short period of time.
This means that the Food Saint lineage must be on high alert against everyone else!
The Food Saint sighed softly, "The Five Saints of the Noble Families are about to become history, and Tianjun is about to change drastically."
If Lin Yi heard these words, he would definitely be left speechless, both amused and exasperated.
He never imagined that his whim to capture the other person through the new world would lead to such a wonderful misunderstanding.
However, from the perspective of a culinary master, the information he could obtain was limited, so it's not surprising that he came to such a conclusion.
Moreover, the Five Saints are indeed not of one mind.
This was naturally good news for Lin Yi.
The more serious the distrust among the Five Saints, the larger the rift will inevitably be, which means that when the showdown finally comes, the Five Saints will suffer more and more intense losses against each other.
The key is that once a chain of suspicion takes hold, it's impossible to suppress.
If a food connoisseur is suspicious of others, others will naturally be suspicious of him as well.
Especially at this critical juncture where the quota for the three-zhang Dharma Image has been filled, Lin Yi could potentially reap the benefits even if he does nothing.
Of course, Lin Yi wouldn't let this excellent opportunity slip by.
However, the most important task right now is to master the Resurrection Technique to further enhance our combat capabilities!
As one of the core inheritances of the Food Saint lineage, the Resurrection Technique is naturally quite difficult to cultivate. Even with a cheat code like the New World, it took Lin Yi two whole days to finally master it.
In this way, Lin Yi's power system has already taken initial shape.
With high evasion, high defense, and high health regeneration, along with powerful ranged attacks and top-notch agility and speed, anyone who faces this combination will be in for a world of trouble.
If Lin Yi ever gets the urge to play dirty tricks, he could probably disgust even three or four opponents of the same level to death, let alone one-on-one.
But that's not enough.
In Lin Yi's mind, unless he had the confidence to easily defeat five opponents, he would never easily overturn the table.
After all, Tianjun is a place where hidden talents abound, and no one knows how much more is hidden beneath the surface.
It's always better to leave yourself a little more room for error.
Currently, the most readily available way to further enhance immediate combat effectiveness is through special track matches.
Special race tracks offer powerful gear.
Now that I have the Wuhou Star Chart, it would be perfect if I could collect more divine equipment, especially if I could synthesize one or two high-level divine equipment that would bring about a qualitative change.
Say Cao Cao and Cao Cao will arrive.
Just as Lin Yi had this idea, an announcement was suddenly issued in the racetrack lobby.
Special track mode is now open!
However, the way it was opened this time was completely different from the previous times.
"The racetrack has arrived?"
Lin Yi was stunned when he received the message.
Lu Bukui explained, "It is said that this special race is not like the previous ones where a few participants were randomly selected to enter the race. Instead, it will be held directly in Tianjun's territory."
"The track will be located in this area."
Lu Bukui took a map of Tianjun and circled a red circle on it.
The area circled in red is not large, less than five square kilometers in total, but it is far from densely populated areas. There is only one small mountain village within the area, and the rest are deep mountains and dense forests.
"Anyone who can enter this area can become a participant."
Lu Bukui said excitedly, "In other words, theoretically everyone could potentially receive the rewards from this special race."
Lin Yi narrowed his eyes slightly: "If that's the case, Tianjun will soon be in chaos."
"It's already in chaos!"
Lu Bukui reported: "Now, including the Twelve Groups of the Heavenly Palace and the major families, all have gathered their experts and gone there. Chairman, shouldn't we also make a move?"
Lin Yi thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I'll go over there first to check the situation, and you organize people to follow. But remember one thing, try not to fight other forces head-on, it's unnecessary."
"clear."
Lü Bukui immediately agreed and left.
Lin Yi then set off for the target area.
Dayang Village.
The entire village has fewer than a hundred people, and within the Tianjun territory, it has never had any presence whatsoever.
If it weren't for the arrival of this race track, even an official organization like the Heavenly Palace wouldn't have been aware that such a place existed within its jurisdiction. (End of Chapter)
