Chapter 1020 - Easily Approachable? (1/2)

Seeing that Jing Yi was still intent on giving it a try, Shen An De just nodded and then called for one of the servants to come over. ”Bring this person over to meet Zheng Yin.”

The servant acknowledged the command and then turned to Jing Yi, motioning back to the door. ”Please follow me.”

Jing Yi got up, nodded at Shen An De and Hong Ai, and then followed the servant out. He had no idea who this Zheng Yin was. At the time when he had been at the Hei Dian Sect, he had never heard of him. But if the Grandmaster was able to come up with his name immediately, then most likely, he should be somebody important. Maybe he was one of the Elders?”

Seeing that he would have to convince this person, he felt that it might be better if he knew who he actually was. Thus, he turned to the servant and gave him a smile. ”I'm sorry but … Who exactly is this Zheng Yin?”

The servant looked back at him as if he was an idiot. ”You don't know who Zheng Yin is?” Why was the Grandmaster sending this person over to him then?

Jing Yi gave an embarrassed smile and coughed, pulling out the only excuse he had. ”I … was outside for quite a long time and only just returned.” He sure hoped that whoever this Zheng Yin was hadn't been here before that. But maybe … He already wanted to amend his statement a little but the servant already showed a knowing expression.

”So it was because of that. Well, you've really missed out on something. That Zheng Yin joined the sect some years ago. Actually, it's also been quite a while but I guess if you were out for a really long time, it isn't too surprising that you don't know him yet.”

Jing Yi nodded, not giving any more information. The more he said, the more unbelievable his story would likely become. It was better to keep quiet about this.

Seeing that he didn't intend to say anything else, the servant was a little miffed but still wouldn't dare to say anything bad. After all, this was still the person that the Grandmaster had told him to bring over there. He might be very important. ”Well, he is insanely talented at alchemy. The Elders in charge of the division have all been fighting over him since he came here. There are some rumors that he's of mixed heritage so that might explain his level of attainment. Why are you going to see him? Isn't it about alchemy?”

”There is a favor have to ask. It is about something with alchemy, yes. Say, is he easy to get along with?”

”Actually, looking at how much of a genius is, it's surprising that he's rather easy to get along with.”

Jing Yi heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that. If this person was somebody who would refuse no matter what even when it was about the Hei Dian Sect itself, then he definitely wouldn't have any chance to convince them. If things were like this, that would make it much easier. While it still wasn't a guarantee, at least it wasn't impossible.
