School flower's personal master

Chapter 12753

However, if you want to break the thousand mark as soon as possible and reach the threshold for the second-level Dharma Image, the fastest way is to continue recruiting people.

Bringing in the remaining three-zhang-tall Dharma Aspect experts, along with a group of four-zhang-tall Dharma Aspect experts, would be more effective than integrating a hundred small forces.

The value of a top-tier combat force cannot be built up by sheer numbers.

There are a total of five three-zhang-tall Dharma Aspect masters in Tianjun.

Lin Yi counts himself as one, Long Juefeng has already been taken down, and of the remaining three, Di Qingfan and Hua Chengying have both met before.

Hua Chengying is elusive and difficult to catch, even with the World Will Seed's location, he is not so easy to capture.

They're at least highly skilled with access permissions.

Di Qingfan had been hovering right under Lin Yi's nose, but the more Lin Yi observed, the more he felt that this Supreme Emperor was not so simple.

Every time I think I've seen through something, I look back and realize there's still something hidden.

Taking action rashly may not succeed and could even alert the enemy.

That leaves only one.

Lin Yi activated the locking device, locking onto the location of the nameless expert, and then his eyelids twitched violently.

The location of that point of light, and the place where he is standing right now.

Total overlap!

The locking device has an accuracy of one kilometer. In other words, at this moment, the last three-zhang-high Dharma Aspect expert is within a one-kilometer radius!

Lin Yi raised his head and slowly scanned his surroundings.

There were only four people on the hilltop.

He, Gan Niannian, Zhao Ning, and that squatting green duck.

Gan Niannian was preparing the seasonings, Zhao Ning was catching the dragon duck, and as for the duck itself...

The duck was still staring at the grill.

Lin Yi looked at the duck.

The duck looked at him, its eyes glazed over, staring blankly at him for a few seconds before turning its head back toward the grill.

Lin Yi's lips twitched: "It can't be you, can it?"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than an aged voice rang out from the side: "Oh, everyone's here."

Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat, and he turned his head sharply.

Suddenly, an old beggar dressed in tattered clothes appeared about twenty meters away, smiling as he walked towards them.

Lin Yi was completely unaware that the other party was approaching!

With his current level of spiritual power, he could detect even a mosquito flying by within a hundred miles, yet he hadn't sensed a single fluctuation before this person appeared.

What's even more terrifying is that the person was standing right in front of him, but when Lin Yi scanned him with his divine sense, it was as if he had swept into a fog, and he could not sense anything at all.

It wasn't about hiding or shielding; the area itself was empty, yet the person was clearly there.

Lin Yi immediately invoked the will of the world.

However, they also couldn't see through the other party's true nature.

This is very unusual!
It's not surprising that divine senses are obscured, after all, there are many secret techniques in this area. However, the world's will, with its dimensional reduction level, has always been invincible.

How could it be invalid?
The old beggar seemed oblivious to Lin Yi's wariness, and walked straight to the green duck, cupping his hands in greeting: "Brother Duck, you've come too."

Their movements were as natural as when old friends met.

The green duck nodded in a serious manner, and even raised one wing and waved it.

Lin Yi: "..."

The old beggar then turned to Lin Yi and explained with a smile, "This old beggar is just a commoner who likes to freeload. Like Brother Duck, I was lured here by this young lady's cooking skills."

He gestured towards Gan Niannian's direction with his lip: "The first time I came by because I was passing by and smelled the aroma. After that, I kept thinking about it and would come over for a meal from time to time. The girl is kind-hearted and never chases people away."

That's just like Gan Niannian's personality.

Lin Yi was surprised, but he kept a straight face and exchanged a few pleasantries.

The other person didn't seem to recognize him.

That's not surprising.

Tianjun doesn't have the internet, so although he's famous, not many people have actually seen what he looks like.

Many people only know that the Lord of Tianjun is named Lin Yi, but they have no idea what he looks like.

Just then, Zhao Ning returned with a plump dragon duck.

Gan Niannian immediately took it and skillfully began to pluck the duck's leg feathers. The duck beside her showed no discomfort whatsoever; on the contrary, it seemed eager to try.

everything's ready.

Gan Niannian then took out a compass to check the feng shui.

Lin Yi nodded. Sure enough, it was the same familiar recipe and the same familiar taste.

After the compass needle spun several times, and with the right timing, location, and people, Gan Niannian finally nodded in satisfaction and began to work.

The roasted duck was ready in no time.

The oil sizzled as it dripped onto the charcoal fire, releasing a wonderful aroma.

The green-feathered duck stretched its neck out long, its eyes wide open, and its beak opened involuntarily, drooling a large glob of saliva.

Gan Niannian cut off the fattest piece and eagerly held it to Lin Yi's lips: "Try it."

Lin Yi took a bite. The outer skin was crispy, and the inside was tender. A natural, fragrant aroma rushed straight to the top of his head, and even his entire primordial spirit trembled.

Lin Yi nodded repeatedly: "Your skills have improved again."

"whee."

Gan Niannian immediately beamed with joy, as if she had received a tremendous reward.

Beside them, two pairs of eyes were fixed on the roast duck.

Both the man and the duck crowded forward, their heads almost touching the grill.

Gan Niannian smiled and cut a piece for each of them.

The old beggar held the piece of meat as if it were a rare treasure.

First, I brought it close to my nose and smelled it, then carefully took a bite. My eyes immediately narrowed into slits, and my face was full of ecstasy. I chewed for a long time, reluctant to swallow.

The green-feathered duck simply picks up the meat, tilts its head back, and swallows it whole.

Then he continued to stare longingly at the grill, mouth agape, tongue lolling out.

One piece isn't enough; we'll keep hoping.

That look in their eyes—no one could refuse it.

After Lin Yi and the other two finished eating, the remaining bones and scraps of meat were eaten up by the man and the duck.

The old beggar chewed even the bones with a crunching sound, sucking out the marrow inside with great relish.

The green duck licked the crumbs off the ground clean, not even letting go of the grease dripping onto the stones. It was more like a licking dog than a duck.

The atmosphere was just right when a sharp voice came from below: "What are you going to do to my dragon duck?!"

Long Hongxiu rushed up the mountain, her hair disheveled and panting.

She stepped in front of the green duck, spreading her arms to protect her back, staring at Lin Yi warily:
"Lin Yi, you, the dignified Lord of Tianjun, don't you even have this much magnanimity? Just because I didn't flatter you in public, you want to roast my dragon duck as revenge?"

"..."

Lin Yi was speechless for a moment, then shook his head and said, "You have quite the imagination."

Long Hongxiu ignored his sarcasm and turned to call to the green-feathered duck, "Let's go home!"

The green duck looked at her, then at the roast duck scraps on the ground, hesitated for two seconds, then lowered its head and licked the last bit of crumbs clean.

Only then did he slowly move to her side, turning back every few steps.

He would look back at the grill every few steps, his eyes filled with reluctance.

Long Hongxiu dragged the duck away, turning back to glare at Lin Yi with a wary look.

On the other side, the old beggar wiped his mouth, stood up contentedly, cupped his hands in greeting to the crowd, and swayed as he went down the mountain.

The figure looked ordinary, but when Lin Yi swept it with his world will, it was still empty.
