Everyone was surprised.
"Are you joking, Brother Zhui Yun?" Saita-kun immediately objected. That Lin Yi just humiliated us, and now he wants to invite him to the conference? If word gets out, wouldn't people say that we're scum?"
Then, there was a chorus of agreement.
It was not just Saita-kun's hardcore faction, but the other neutral upper echelons also expressed their opposition.
No matter how talented Lin Yi was, in their eyes, it was far less important than the face of King Qi's mansion.
"Let him come," King Qi finally said."This king truly does want to meet him. I want to see how he's grown his courage."
Everyone was silent.
Qi Zhuiyun glanced at Qi Tian-kun and cupped his hands with a smile.
Saita-kun's expression did not change, but a hint of gloom appeared in his eyes.
In his eyes, Lin Yi wasn't important at all. What worried him was the inclination behind King Qi's words.
