Chapter 234 - Who Do You Think You Are!

Chapter 234: Who Do You Think You Are!

After he figured out moonlight, Lin Yao’s mental strength would recover quickly, and he’d only need to rest for two hours every three or five days.

Unfortunately, he was being too idealistic. This kind of knowledge was extremely difficult, and an entire night of studying had only given Lin Yao a head start.

‘The study of light is a long-term job.’

At the thought of needing to go to the Flowery Sect to perform today, he didn’t continue to study or train. Instead, he meditated in the room. He was planning to surprise the arrogant senior brothers of the Flowery Sect in the afternoon.

However, Lin Yao, who sat down only shortly, sensed someone arriving. After opening the door, he discovered that his manager, Qin Ya, had come.

“You’re that early?”

“Yes, I have something to discuss with you.”

She was not the only one who had come. The few young people she had previously signed a contract with were also with her.

They were planning to follow Qin Ya at all times so that the latter would not be able to spend time with Lin Yao alone.

Ignoring the few of them, Lin Yao looked at Qin Ya.

“What’s the matter?”

“It’s about your complete break from the Flowery Sect.” Upon seeing Lin Yao pull a long face, Qin Ya waved her hand. “Don’t worry, I’m not asking you to reconcile with the Flowery Sect. I’m here to help you deal with the subsequent trouble.

“The Flowery Sect is a powerful dojo, and they have numerous people in business, entertainment, the academy, the police, the Abnormal Ability Department, and so on… You can’t fight against them alone. Although you guys don’t have a life-and-death feud and they won’t go all out against you, it’ll be very hard on you if they put a spoke in your wheel. I’m sure you don’t want your reputation to be ruined by the netizens.”

This was indeed a problem. As Lin Yao was frowning and pondering a solution, Qin Ya, who was sitting on the sofa opposite him, spoke.

“The Flowery Sect is very strong. You can’t fight it alone, and you don’t have to.

“There is more than one dojo in Shanghai, and the Flowery Sect is just one of them. Their teaching ability is not bad, but they are far from the top dojo. They are not the top in strength, but because they are good at creating hype and strategizing, they are able to attract the top martial artists in Shanghai. Will the other dojos find this fair?”

These words made Lin Yao laugh.

“Of course not.”

The most common disputes in the world were caused by conflict of interests. These were also the hardest to resolve. Lin Yao understood what Qin Ya meant without needing her to elaborate further.

“You want me to join a dojo that sees the Flowery Sect as their enemy.”

“That’s not all. The dojo has to be able to help you too. I’ve contacted the Heaven and Earth Dojo. Your abilities are very compatible with theirs. They are the most suitable dojo for you.”

Qin Ya had it all thought out and had really fought for his benefits. However, he had more on his mind.

“I will join the dojo, but I will do so after the match.”

As soon as he said this, Qin Ya only frowned, but the person next to her was upset.

“What the crap? Do you really think you can become famous at the competition? Who do you think you are? A king seedling? What an arrogant kid. The power of the major dojos is not something comparable to that of your family…”

Lin Yao’s intent was very clear. He would be suspected of seeking refuge if he were to join the dojo before the competition. He wanted to gain the attention of other dojos after showing his strength at the competition to attain better terms.

The rest of the group understood this, but they didn’t think that Lin Yao would win. On the other hand, they believed he would be beaten to a pulp at the competition or even fail to enter it after being targeted during the preliminary screening. If that were to happen, the other dojos would offer him even lesser terms.

Qin Ya wanted stability, but Lin Yao had more confidence in his own strength.

Although he could endure Qin Ya’s persuasion, he didn’t want others to talk tirelessly next to his ears.

Fortunately, Lin Yao didn’t need to take action. As soon as he frowned, Qin Ya shot Jin Cheng a stern gaze.

“Jin Cheng, what did you promise me before we came here?”

“Sister Qin… Alright, don’t be angry. I’m saying this out of goodwill… Okay, I won’t say a word again. I won’t say a word.”

After Jin Cheng sealed his lips, Qin Ya sighed upon seeing the determined look on Lin Yao’s face. Soon, she said, “It’s okay if you don’t want to join the dojo immediately, but I’m planning to have you join the alliance against the Flowery Sect in the league. If you join them, you won’t be targeted during the preliminary screening.”

“This is fine.”

When Lin Yao nodded in agreement, Qin Ya smiled. “I’ve already contacted the chief instructor of the Heaven and Earth Dojo in Shanghai. Let’s visit him together. When the time comes, please show a better attitude. It’s good to form amiable relationships no matter what.”

“Okay.”

While Lin Yao nodded lightly to express his agreement, upon hearing that Qin Ya had already contacted the chief instructor of the Heaven and Earth Dojo for Lin Yao, Jin Cheng and the group almost suffered an emotional breakdown. Their eyes were red with envy.

“Sister Qin, you are being too kind to this kid.”

They were aggrieved, as they felt that Qin Ya was too good to Lin Yao. Otherwise, she would not have spent so much money to invite the chief instructor of the Heaven and Earth Dojo.

They felt so aggrieved that they couldn’t care less about their earlier promise to Qin Ya about not speaking too much when they came.

However, just as they expressed their grievance and jealousy on their faces, a cold snort was heard beside Lin Yao.

“Come on! You’re in over your head!

“I’m talking to you guys. Who do you think you are? The heavenly king guarding the city is a direct descendant of a rich and powerful family. Humph, if it wasn’t for our Lin Yao’s outstanding talents, do you think that the chief instructor would care about Sister Qin?

“Why, you don’t believe me? Get Sister Qin to beg the chief instructor to teach a few useless pieces of crap like you guys and you’ll see if he will bother.

“Remember, it is Sister Qin who is relying on our Lin Yao to expand her connections. She did not pull any strings to invite that chief instructor…”

“Ying Yin! Yin Meng!”

Lin Yao had four assistants. Qin Xue had been brought in by Qin Ya. Apart from her, the other three ladies were related to Qin Ya but did not have a perfectly harmonious relationship.

If Lin Yao and Qin Ya had always been on good terms, of course, they would not have made Qin Ya lose face. However, as daughters from rich and powerful families, they could already sense the changes in the relationship between Lin Yao and Qin Ya. Therefore, they dared to bare their teeth at Qin Ya now.

Most importantly, the battle last night had influenced these ladies greatly.

When the twins had been sent to a genius, they had only been aware that they were the ‘tool’ of a joint marriage and a transaction item to boost their family’s situation.

They respected Lin Yao and were on fairly good terms with him. One of them stopped having that initial feeling of disgust because Lin Yao was too handsome. The other was really scared of not having a good life in the future.

All of them were children of rich and powerful families, and they knew they had to pay a price for getting something in return. They were already resigned to their fate and treated Lin Yao as someone they could rely on.

However, this was just a form of reliance, and there was no love about the respect they felt. Even Yan Yu’er had complicated feelings for Lin Yao, but only because he was the man who had taken her virginity.

However, the situation had changed yesterday. They had been suddenly transferred to the mirror space and had encountered extremely dangerous freaks. The group of girls had realized that there was malice and danger in this world. Especially after the tourists on the viewing boat had been pulled into the mirror space, they had known they’d inevitably encounter evil spirits so long as they were alive.

The terrifying freaks and the strange and mysterious mirror space had completely broken down their guard.

As they’d been terrified, trembling and panicking upon realizing that Yang Zheng and the others couldn’t protect them, Lin Yao had emerged like a god descending from heaven.

With tyrannical strength, he had swept away everything and pulled everyone out of the mirror space.

Although this was not in line with the common plot, it was still considered a hero saving the beauty. Even young policewoman Lin Ru had fallen for him, let alone those senior high school girls who loved fantasizing.

What kind of high school girl wouldn’t harbor hopes of being rescued by a prince charming one day? Lin Yao had completely fulfilled their fantasy.

It could be said that, before last night, Lin Yao had been a genius in the hearts of these ladies. After last night, he was the hero who had saved them and the man they had fallen for.

Among them, Yin Yin and Yin Meng were affected the most.

They were residents of Tianhai City and had experienced the chaos caused by the freaks several months ago.

Their family was powerful and wealthy, and their parents were also fairly strong. However, although they had escaped, their father had died during the journey in order to protect them.

They would never see the fallen areas of Tianhai City, where the hysterical freaks slaughtered everyone, nor could they forget the sudden death, mutation, madness, and disappearances of the people surrounding them while they were fleeing.

That was their nightmare and a great horror that kept them awake at night.

Because of their experience, they understood the despair of the weak when they entered the space of the freaks. When they’d suddenly entered the mirror space last night, their legs had turned wobbly from horror.

They’d experienced the same fright and terror over encountering the freaks, but the process and outcome were completely different this time.

Lin Yao had destroyed everything, so they didn’t have to run and panic. They just had to stand aside quietly. This kind of assurance and peace of mind had made them become deeply reliant on Lin Yao.

“If Ah Yao had been in Tianhai City, I wouldn’t have needed to be afraid. Father wouldn’t have had to die. Xiaoqing, Teacher Bai, and Uncle Tian wouldn’t have died either.”

“I don’t want to flee in panic and desperation anymore… I don’t want to feel despair anymore…”
