A luxury carriage galloped along the main road toward the Blue Tide City. In the carriage, Yun Lintian looked at the scenery outside boringly. Previously, he didn't want to take the carriage at all, but he couldn't keep refusing Su Minghai's enthusiasm and accepted his offer in the end.
Su Minghai looked outside through a small window while holding a glass of wine in his hand. He would occasionally glance at Linlin a few times as though he wanted to ask something.
Yun Lintian naturally noticed this, but he had no intention of saying or explaining anything.
Su Minghai could feel that Yun Lintian had raised his guard up since the last night's conversation. He thought for a moment and let out a sigh. "Alright, Brother Mu. It's my fault."
Yun Lintian turned to look at Su Minghai and asked with a faint smile. "Oh? What do you mean, Brother Su?"
Su Minghai cursed inwardly when he saw Yun Lintian's expression. Anyway, I am a genuine monarch here. Can't you show me some respect?
His lips twitched slightly, and he said. "I hide something from you. Actually, I had recommended you to the Black Wing group. That's why I want you to join them."
Yun Lintian's expression did not change in the slightest, as though he had already expected this. He continued to look at Su Minghai without a word.
Su Minghai was uncomfortable being stared at by this junior. He took a gulp of wine and said. "The Black Wing group is founded by a young lady named Lei Feifei. She has a great ambition to make the group number one in the world. Recently, several groups constantly suppressed her, and her talented members had been poached away. If it continues like this, her Black Wing group will definitely become the past tense soon."
Yun Lintian was surprised to hear this, but he didn't show it outside. He stared at Su Minghai for a moment and asked. "Even the peak monarch like you cannot help her. Don't you think it's ridiculous to recruit me?"
Su Minghai was taken aback and couldn't help taking a deep look at Yun Lintian. He didn't expect the latter to know his strength like this. After all, his concealment art was not ordinary. It seemed he had to reevaluate Yun Lintian again.
Su Minghai quickly wore an admiring expression and said. "As expected from Brother Mu. My eyes didn't lie to me at all. You are really the most talented person I have ever seen so far." He paused for a moment and continued. "When you showed a tiny portion of your strength yesterday, I had discovered that you have already mastered a conceptual intent. Do you know what this means? As long as you didn't die halfway, your future is limitless, and you are destined to be one of the strongest persons in this world. With you in the Black Wing group. Why would they need to fear those jumping clowns?"
A strange light flashed across Yun Lintian's eyes as he looked at Su Minghai in confusion… Conceptual intent? Since when did I master it? Did this uncle make a mistake?
As Yun Lintian pondered further, he seemed to understand something. Conceptual intent was represented an absolute control. Perhaps his control over the water element made Su Minghai believe he had mastered the conceptual intent.
Of course, Yun Lintian wouldn't expose himself. He replied after thinking for a moment. "There is no benefit for me. On the contrary, joining the Black Wing group means carrying an unwanted burden. If it was you, do you want to join it, Brother Su?"
"Of course not. Who would do that?" Su Minghai replied in almost an instant. "I have already thought about this and discussed it with Lei Feifei before visiting you last night. She wanted to invite you to be a guest elder of the group. In this position, you don't need to take regular responsibility. All you need to do is lend a hand when the group is facing an unavoidable crisis."
Yun Lintian didn't react and kept pondering on Su Minghai's words. In fact, befriending the Black Wing group was not a bad idea. In the future, he would travel between the continents often, and the Black Wing's ship could play a significant role in this. Unless he established the Grand Transmission Formation by himself.
Su Minghai thought that Yun Lintian couldn't see any benefit in joining the Black Wing. He explained further. "Although the Black Wing group has been surrounded by the enemies, its business is still good. As a guest elder, you can enjoy various benefits, such as a high-grade artifact and magical plants. There is also a high salary. If I remember correctly, it should be around one million medium grade Profound Stones."
Su Minghai observed Yun Lintian's face carefully, waiting to see a trace of surprise on the latter, but he was disappointed in the end. Yun Lintian didn't show any emotion in the slightest, which made Su Minghai doubt whether Yun Lintian was too stunned to speak or he was genuinely uninterested in these benefits.
Yun Lintian responded after a short period of silence. "I can see Brother Su is sincere enough. I can be a guest elder, as you said. But…" His voice became solemn as he spoke further. "I will put an ugly word here. I won't participate in any dispute between the Black Wing group and an enemy outside the current ones. And the Black Wing's owner has no right to order me around. If I want to help, then I will help. However, if I don't want to, I won't do it no matter how hard she tries. If the group owner can accept this, then I will join the group."
Su Minghai almost accepted Yun Lintian's condition in Lei Feifei's stead. The conditions Yun Lintian proposed weren't excessive at all. It is all fair, in his opinion.
He nodded his head firmly and said.. "I will tell her now and see her decision."
