After all, as an Alchemist, even if he was not a mainstream Alchemist, he still had to prepare his own medicinal material warehouse. Otherwise, in the future, he would have to go to the market to buy all the necessary medicinal materials for any pill he wanted to refine. Many of them might not even be available, just like the heart-devouring exquisite grass. That would be simply a scam.
And with such a medicinal material reserve, although it was still inevitable to collect some specific medicinal materials at the last moment, it could save some unnecessary trouble. At least, there was no need to travel all over the place for some basic medicinal materials and waste too much energy. !!
The next day at noon, Lin Yi showed up at sanxikou as promised.
He thought that Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai would be here soon. Even if it was hard to locate them in the dense forest, the spot he chose at sanxikou was easy to spot. Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai were Sky Class Masters at the great circle, after all, and they should be able to do this.
However, Lin Yi had been wandering around sanxikou and waiting for two whole hours, but he still didn’t see the two. He couldn’t help but wonder if these two were in trouble.
It would be understandable if they had arrived at different speeds. After all, in the outer area of the back mountain, it was very likely that unexpected things would happen during the process. It was very normal for them to not reach the destination according to the plan. However, now that the two of them had disappeared, there was a problem.
“Could it be that Meng Tong and his men have made a move on them in advance?” Lin Yi’s heart moved.
Judging from the time, it was the last day for the newcomers to return to the back mountain Hall. Taking action at this time would be the best choice to maximize the benefits. However, on the other hand, any newcomer would definitely be more careful at this time and would not easily leave any flaws.
On the other hand, if he were to do the opposite and make his move a little earlier, although the harvest would be less, it would catch the target off guard. This might not be a bad choice.
According to their performance before the test, Meng Tong and his men were definitely looking for an opportunity to make a move. Lin Yi thought that he would be their first target since he had always been the thorn in their side. He didn’t expect them to make a move on Xiao ran and Lin Yi first.
He knew that he should pick the soft persimmons. If this guess was true, Meng Tong had improved a little!
Lin Yi wouldn’t mind showing the guy why the flowers were so red if the guy dared to come to him directly with his men, but if the guy skipped him and went straight to Xiao ran and Lin Yi, then even Lin Yi wouldn’t be able to think of a suitable countermeasure in a short time.
The most troublesome part was that Lin Yi had no idea where Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai were!
After all, there were no mobile phones on Sky Class Island, and even if there was, there wouldn’t be any signal. If he went out to look for them now, the chances of finding them in this vast forest would be very slim, and what if he was wrong?
If Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai were delayed because of some other trouble, Lin Yi would really miss them if he left sanxikou now.
The location of the three streams was one of the harder to find places on the map provided by the back mountain Hall. Since Lin Yi’s group had set this place as the meeting point, what about Meng Tong’s group? they had the advantage in numbers, and they needed a highly recognizable place to meet up. Wouldn’t they come here?
And if he was wrong and left the place to look for the two now, Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai would be in a more dangerous situation by the time they came here!
After some consideration, Lin Yi decided to wait at the three streams for another half a day. It was the wisest choice he could make at this moment.
In the next half a day, if Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai arrived, it would naturally be a happy occasion. It wasn’t a bad thing if Meng Tong and the others were here-Lin Yi was more than enough to deal with them all by himself!
As for the last possibility, if Lin Yi didn’t see anyone here, it wouldn’t be good news, but at least he could confirm that Xiao ran and Lin Yi were in trouble, and it was Meng Tong’s doing!
Lin Yi asked Skybolt pig to look for spiritual herbs near sanxikou as he waited. Half a day passed in a flash, and the sky was getting dark, but Lin Yi didn’t see a single person from beginning to end.
Lin Yi now knew that Xiao ran and Lin Yi had been ambushed by Meng Tong’s men.
Xiao ran was a Sky Class full master to begin with, and he should’ve touched the wall of the path of heaven after all this time of training. Qiao hongcai, on the other hand, was Sky Class late phase peak, but he’d successfully advanced to Sky Class full master.
The two of them weren’t weak in the GreenCloud Pavilion’s group, and they should have a good chance of winning in a one-on-one fight. But the problem was that two fists couldn’t fight four hands, and the other newbies weren’t easy to deal with either. Even if they couldn’t beat the two of them in a one-on-one fight, they were still Sky Class full Masters-they wouldn’t be easy to deal with.
Facing so many people, even if Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai were lucky enough to meet each other, they would have no chance of winning and could only run away.
If it was someone else, they would run in the direction of sanxikou. After all, if they could meet up with Lin Yi on the way, they would have more strength.
But Lin Yi knew that with their honest characters, they wouldn’t go in the direction of sanxikou if they were in trouble. Instead, they would choose the opposite direction!
If they ran towards the direction of sanxikou, they’d have a chance to meet up with Lin Yi, but they’d also put the danger on Lin Yi. No matter how confident they were in Lin Yi’s strength, they didn’t think he could take on ten Sky Class Masters at the full completion, led by Meng Tong.
After all, they were the same as everyone else-they didn’t know that Lin Yi was already in the early phase of the Foundation Stage. They only thought that Lin Yi was a Sky Class full master who was a little stronger than the others!
Due to this concern, Lin Yi guessed that the two would sacrifice themselves to protect Lin Yi’s safety!
This way, even if their herbs were all stolen, Lin Yi’s side wouldn’t be in any danger. With Lin Yi’s strength, it shouldn’t be a problem to get a higher ranking. Although it was hard to get first place in the trial, it was better than the three of them being annihilated together.
