Chapter 1211: Chapter 1179: Journey to Celestial Nether City
"What?"
Lin Yi stood bewildered in the Mage Guild hall of Jialan City, looking at the elder who had suddenly appeared:
"I just want to use the Teleportation Array; there’s no need to pass the Guild President position to me as well, right?"
Even with protagonist luck, this ’generous gift’ comes way too inexplicably.
Upon hearing this news, Lin Yi even wondered if he’d misheard.
A dignified Mage Guild President position—is it like a cabbage? Saying to give it away just like that.
At the moment, not only Lin Yi was bewildered, but those around were also no better off, including Vice President Robinson.
Ling Yudao directly addressed Kamo:
"Old man, what’s the act this time?"
As the Grand Pavilion Master of Linlang Pavilion, Ling Yudao often dealt with Kamo.
Everyone felt terribly incredulous about Kamo’s sudden decision.
Meanwhile, Cardinal Holland looked calm, as if he wasn’t surprised by this at all.
Though Lin Yi is merely the Divine Son of the church, no one understands his status within the church better than he does.
The Pope stated before leaving that whatever the Divine Son said was as if he said it himself.
When Holland heard this directive, he understood Lin Yi’s significance to the church.
Therefore, this time out, even as the cardinal, Holland could only accompany Lin Yi as his guard.
Originally, when Robinson refused Lin Yi’s request to use the Teleportation Array, Holland was prepared to put pressure on the Mage Guild.
He didn’t expect Kamo to suddenly intervene in this manner.
Seeing Kamo’s arrival, Holland sensed hope and chose to observe quietly from the side.
Regarding Kamo’s sudden proposal, perhaps Holland was the only one who knew a bit about why he did it.
Kamo faced the shocked crowd, his face showing no trace of joking.
He seemed worried Lin Yi might refuse?
Facing Lin Yi’s inquiry, Kamo said:
"Nowadays, the construction method of the Teleportation Array has long been lost."
"Restricting its use is also a form of protection."
"Being the Guild President, of course, is not within the restricted range."
Kamo looked eagerly at Lin Yi:
"So, what do you say?"
"As long as you nod, from now on you will be our Mage Guild President, and you can freely use the Teleportation Arrays of the Three Great Empires."
At this point, Robinson reacted, quickly saying:
"President! This matter shouldn’t be done lightly, and requires careful consideration."
Yet at this moment, a guild elder pulled Robinson aside, seemingly explaining something.
After a while, when Robinson returned, apart from the inexplicable astonishment on his face, he no longer had any objection to Lin Yi succeeding the president’s position.
Lin Yi noticed something, looking at this group from the Mage Guild with some uncertainty, wondering why they suddenly wanted him to take over the president’s position.
Lin Yi firmly believed there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
For them to act like this, there must be hidden motives, it can’t simply be a momentary impulse.
This time, Lin Yi wanted to use the Teleportation Array because of Ling Yuwei; it was just a coincidence.
But it also allowed them an ’excuse’ to legitimately propose this request.
Lin Yi did not want to unwittingly board a pirate ship.
Perhaps being the Mage Guild President is tempting to others, but it hardly interested Lin Yi.
It’s just that Lin Yi now bears the identity of the Jialan King in the Jialan Empire and the Divine Son of the Light Church, neither of which is lesser than the president’s position.
Thus understanding this, Lin Yi answered Kamo:
"What if I refuse?"
"Hiss~"
A sudden inhalation sound came from around.
Probably no one present would not be shocked by Lin Yi’s answer, right?
This is the Nine Nether Continent, the position of Mage Guild President for the Three Great Empires!!!
At this moment, everyone couldn’t help but be skeptical in their hearts:
As an existence whose power and influence even exceeds the Three Great Empires.
When did the position of Mage Guild President—a ruler with hands over the skies—become something gifted so casually and even refused?
Kamo looked at Lin Yi incredulously:
"You want to refuse?"
At this time, Lin Yi, concerned about Ling Yuwei’s safety, was not interested in wasting time here, stating:
"The president’s position, how could I possibly deserve it, nor dare accept."
Lin Yi had heard before that Kamo was a super existence in the Nine Nether Continent’s Divine King power rankings, second only to the Pope.
As a mere Seventh Transformation Emperor Level, vastly inferior in power compared to him.
Lin Yi did not believe he was more suited for this position than Kamo.
Now, Lin Yi simply wanted to get to the Demon Forest as soon as possible to find out Ling Yuwei’s whereabouts.
But the Teleportation Array was the only way for Lin Yi to quickly reach there, Lin Yi also didn’t want people to say he bullied others with his position, so he added:
"But if there’s anything I can do to assist Senior, feel free to say it."
"This will serve as my exchange for using the Teleportation Array this time, how does Senior feel?"
At this point, Kamo still looked puzzled at Lin Yi:
"Are you sure you don’t want to reconsider?"
Lin Yi’s expression was firm:
"Today I must use the Teleportation Array, any condition Senior proposes, I will agree."
"If it’s something I can do, I won’t delay."
After confirming Lin Yi truly wasn’t interested in the president’s position, Kamo’s face showed a disappointed expression and said:
"Since that’s the case, I won’t force you."
"As for the Teleportation Array, I can make an exception for you to use it."
"But..."
Kamo looked sincerely at Lin Yi and said:
"As an exchange, it will be as if you owe me a favor."
"When I figure out what I want you to do, I’ll let you know."
Perhaps to reassure Lin Yi, Kamo added:
"Of course."
"You don’t need to worry that I’ll ask you to do anything you’re unwilling or unable to do."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi said without hesitation:
"Okay, let’s proceed as you suggested."
Seeing Lin Yi agree so readily, Cardinal Holland originally wanted to speak but had to swallow his words.
Receiving Lin Yi’s reply, Kamo directly told Robinson:
"Escort the Divine Son over."
No one knows what the Guild elder previously said to Robinson.
Hearing Kamo’s words, Robinson’s attitude became exceedingly respectful towards Lin Yi:
"Divine Son, this way please."
Finally, Lin Yi could breathe a sigh of relief and thanked Kamo:
"Thank you, Senior."
Kamo smiled in response:
"Handle your matters first, Your Highness."
At this moment, Kamo tossed something over to Lin Yi, who instinctively caught it.
Before Lin Yi could see what it was, Kamo said:
"This is an Honored Guest Elder Token from our Mage Guild."
"If you need assistance, you can show the token at any Mage Guild to seek help."
Even though Lin Yi still didn’t understand why the other party was being so generous, the help was tangible.
Lin Yi wasn’t pretentious, he directly accepted it and added:
"After handling my affairs, I will visit to express my gratitude."
Subsequently, Lin Yi, led by Robinson, arrived at the ancient Teleportation Array located deep within the Mage Guild.
At this moment, the White Tiger on Lin Yi’s shoulder emitted a childish voice:
"Her aura disappeared from here."
Lin Yi nodded in understanding and then told Robinson:
"Go to Celestial Nether City."
