One skill point per second, I turn fireballs into forbidden spells.

Chapter 427 The Two-Faced Little Loli
A moment of hesitation flashed across Edward's face, but in the end he chose to let Lin Yi and his group leave.

The gray-skinned dragonman, who had landed on the ground, stared at the direction Lin Yi had left, his brows furrowed.

It seemed as if he was muttering something to himself.

For a powerful individual with exceptional strength, a distance of tens of kilometers is nothing more than the time it takes to brew a cup of tea to cross.

Under the girl's command, the black dragon beneath her feet carried Lin Yi to the northwest area of ​​the instance.

This area is covered in ice and snow, with a biting wind and bone-chilling cold.

Looking around, all I could see was a blank stare.

Dragons and dragon people are both cold-blooded animals, and they do not like the freezing cold environment.

Therefore, settling down here is a good choice.

Lin Yi opened the map and checked Edward's current location.

That troublesome fellow did not choose to continue the pursuit after Lin Yi was rescued.

Lin Yi knew the reason very well.

Naturally, it was because the girl who saved him had reached a terrifying level of strength.

"Eileen, I'm curious, why did you save me?"

"Aren't we enemies?"

As soon as Lin Yi had a thought, a crack appeared in the ice beneath his feet.

With a slight adjustment of gravity, Lin Yi drew out the gently flowing glacial water, which froze instantly with a wave of his hand.

He made simple stools for himself and the little girl named Eileen in front of him.

Lin Yi didn't stand on ceremony and sat down first.

He then looked at the girl seriously and asked the question that had been bothering him.

On the map, Lin Yi could clearly see the girl's name and the country she belonged to.

Despite her cute little dress and innocent face, this young girl has features typical of the Great Xia people.

Looking at her nationality, it was revealed to be American.

This information was very easy to find, so Lin Yi didn't bother to play dumb with her and started asking about the little girl's identity.

Unexpectedly, when asked about this, the little girl in front of him not only didn't get angry, but also blinked her big, watery eyes and patiently explained to Lin Yi.

"Brother Lin Yi, I have indeed acquired American citizenship, but my heart has always remained in Great Xia!"

"Three years ago, my parents were targeted by professional assailants in China. We were forced to move away from China and flee to the United States. But God is so cruel."

"Although my family and I arrived in the beautiful country safely, my parents, they..."

The little girl cried her eyes out as she recounted her tragic past to Lin Yi.

He also used this as an opportunity to find a suitable reason for saving Lin Yi.

Her superb acting skills and the tears that welled up in her eyes did indeed make her quite endearing at first glance.

But in Lin Yi's eyes, this scene was incredibly awkward.

Well, to be honest, your acting skills are really quite good.

The story is also well-made and reasonable. He cares about his compatriots and is willing to risk offending his current allies to take action. He sounds like a righteous and benevolent national hero!
If it weren't for the All-Seeing Eye telling me that it would take fifteen days to analyze your information, I, Lin Yi, would never doubt what you said.

What does a 15-day timeframe for interpretation mean?
Even when analyzing Wan Chongshan and Cheng Xiao, the All-Seeing Eye didn't say it would take this much effort.

This shows that the seemingly pitiful little girl in front of us is no ordinary person.

Her strength is definitely at the level of a war god or higher, and there is a very high probability that this little girl possesses power that transcends ordinary laws.

Such a terrifyingly powerful individual, whose family was targeted by professionals from Great Xia, was forced to flee to the United States?
Why is it so hard to believe this? The flaws are so obvious, they're all there.

No matter how much Lin Yi tried to convince himself to trust the girl in front of him, he just couldn't do it.

Sometimes, you have to play dumb.

This is especially true when facing a powerful opponent against whom you have no way to resist.

Lin Yi was very open-minded about this.

Since someone saved me, and even saved me from the hands of a colleague, it means I have value!

If we take the way out offered by this little girl, we can at least keep our lives safe for now!
I haven't saved enough skill points yet, and the amazing skill [Flash] hasn't been upgraded to the forbidden spell level.

Why not go along with the little girl's wishes and let her develop further?

While buying time to strengthen their own forces, let's also see what this young girl is up to.

Since there's no way to get rid of this little girl anyway, I might as well just accept it.

It's clear from the fact that Edward didn't dare to chase after them that the little girl and the black dragon she led were definitely stronger than the Dragon King level!

To start a war with a powerhouse of this level is just asking for trouble!
"Little Lin, thank you for saving me! I understand how you feel!"

Sometimes, we have to make the decisions we hate the most!

"You saved me from the dragon people of the beautiful country, how could I not believe you?"

"Little Lin, don't cry, don't cry, brother will pat your head."

As he spoke, Lin Yi actually placed his hand on Ai Linlin's head and gently rubbed it.

At that moment, both the dragon and the human were caught off guard.

Especially the black dragon that followed Eileen, its huge vertical pupils filled with disbelief, muttering to itself:

Having lived for tens of thousands of years, you are the first person to dare to do this!
Lin Yi didn't continue down the path of self-destruction and quickly changed the subject.

"Edward is very strong. You saved me from him. Won't that get you into trouble?"

"My actions against the Dragon Clan of the United States will soon be made public. If we continue to stay together, you will probably be added to the kill list as well."

Eileen had clearly already prepared her explanation for this matter.

Without a second thought, he gave Lin Yi a definite answer:

Brother Lin Yi, I have already betrayed America, and I will surely die if I go back.

It's rare for us fellow countrymen of the Great Xia to meet in this instance. Why don't we travel together and take care of each other?
I will absolutely not hold you back.

The young lady had already put it so clearly, so how could Lin Yi have a reason to refuse?

Even if he had a legitimate reason to refuse, he wouldn't dare to say it.

It's best not to offend terrifying monsters of the Dragon King level or above.

After this conversation, Lin Yi was certain of one thing.

That means I possess something that this little girl desires, something that is difficult to obtain.

Otherwise, what reason would a powerful figure of this caliber have to pretend to be an innocent little girl and stay by his side?

Using his control over ice, Lin Yi quickly built some ice utensils in the snow and ice and leisurely enjoyed iced coffee.

The second release of Dragon Crystal is about to begin.

However, Lin Yi did not show any intention of competing for it.
