Chapter 131 Why are you still here?

Lin Yu noticed this scene and couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

Good grief, they're keeping an eye on me!

Do you really think I care that much for your family's treasures?
After thinking about it, Lin Yu had to admit that he really did covet the Eye of Agamotto.

In particular, the Time Stone and the secret technique for observing the past and future can be of great benefit even to his own body.

Unfortunately, the old nun was too wary; she was willing to swallow her pride and move the treasure in person to protect it…

Lin Yu felt regretful, but still smiled and said, "As far as I know, some knowledge can cause great harm simply by being known, without needing to be put into practice. Does Kamar-Taj also maintain an open attitude towards this kind of knowledge?"

"That's natural."

Ancient One said with an unchanged smile, "However, these kinds of forbidden books are all sealed on my private bookshelf. Those who have the ability to break the seal and borrow forbidden books are all highly skilled sorcerers..."

Lin Yu glanced at him and said, "But there will always be someone who is interested in this kind of knowledge, right?"

Gu Yi fell silent for a moment, then sighed softly, "What you say is absolutely right, but such people are ultimately a very small minority."

"Moreover, I personally believe that it is better to guide than to block. If we simply prohibit this knowledge, it will only encourage those genius mages who are full of curiosity and thirst for knowledge to want to find out more."

"By then, there might be even more misguided genius mages than there are now..."

Lin Yu shook his head and said, "You said it yourself, it's just a possibility, what if it's even less?"

Gu Yi smiled without saying a word. Lin Yu looked at the expression on her face and suddenly realized that this old nun possessed the Time Stone. In her eyes, there was no such thing as "maybe" or "maybe." It was clearly just a humble remark!
"I see."

Lin Yu said thoughtfully, "It seems that after knowledge is banned, someone even more troublesome than Casillas will appear... Let me guess, could it be that famous neurosurgeon in New York?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, the smile on Gu Yi's face finally disappeared.

She gazed deeply at Lin Yu, realizing that this great being before her also possessed the authority to see through the river of time.

“Indeed.” The Ancient One sighed softly. “Stephen Strange will be an extremely excellent sorcerer. Compared to me, he will not follow the rules and will often break the rules and do unexpected things.”

"If this kind of personality is used for good, it will surely be able to achieve victory by surprise."

"But if one is not careful, it can turn into a rebellious spirit, causing him to deliberately defy all the rules I have set..."

Lin Yu laughed and said, "The mage has really gone to great lengths to cultivate a successor!"

As they chatted, the two entered the library outside the secret room.

At that moment, a bald Asian monk was sitting at a table by the entrance to the library, reading a thick-covered book.

Lin Yu glanced at him and knew that this bald, burly man was the current librarian of Kamar-Taj, the future assistant to Doctor Strange, and the next Sorcerer Supreme after the snap of his fingers—Wang!
Upon seeing Gu Yi and Lin Yu enter, Wang quickly stood up and respectfully bowed to the two of them.

But when Lin Lie tried to follow him in, Wang stretched out his hand and blocked his way with a blank expression.

"...?"

Lin Lie blinked, looking at Lin Yu and Gu Yi with an innocent expression.

Gu Yi glanced at him and said to Wang Dao, "Take the Sword Master to Kamar-Taj. You will personally entertain him. Do not neglect him."

"Yes, Your Holiness."

Wang respectfully accepted the order, then turned to the side, gesturing for Lin Lie to leave with him.

Lin Lie smirked and cast a questioning glance at Lin Yu.

Lin Yu said with a smile, "Go ahead, don't worry about me."

Is this what I want to say?

Lin Lie was somewhat helpless; he was also very envious of Kamar-Taj's library!

But there was nothing he could do; they clearly didn't welcome him, so he had no choice but to go along with it.

After Lin Lie left with Wang, Lin Yu glanced at Gu Yidao and said, "A mage shouldn't be such a petty person, right?"

Ancient One sighed softly, “You should know that beings like yourself have their own mystical anchors. To prevent them from infiltrating Earth through these knowledge anchors, the Sorcerer Supremes of all generations have been constantly reinforcing the seal of the Library.”

"And the presence of the Sword Master will also trigger this seal, leading to some extremely serious consequences."

"For the sake of the stability of the entire Earth, no matter how tolerant I am, I have no choice but to make this sacrifice for Your Excellency, the Sword Master..."

Sure enough, the reason why Gu Yi had repeatedly refused Lin Lie's visits was because of the ghost in his arm!

Lin Yu understood in his heart, but agreed on the surface, saying, "Indeed, although the ghosts and spirits on Lin Lie's body are not powerful, they are very troublesome, especially that kind of highly infectious berserk power. Once it spreads, it may affect the entire human civilization."

Gu Yi nodded in agreement, which also confirmed a fact—

That was the problem with Lin Lie, and it was indeed Lin Yu who solved it for him!
Lin Yu turned his head and looked at the densely packed bookshelves stretching as far as the eye could see. The interior space here seemed to be protected by some kind of spatial expansion spell, making it much more spacious than it appeared from the outside.

Its collection is simply outrageous, with a dazzling array of old books, far exceeding the number of any other library in the world.

Looking at the ancient books, Lin Yu was extremely tempted and wished he could move the entire library to its entirety immediately.

However, considering that this was the territory of the Ancient One, and that Lin Yu was extremely satisfied with this world where he could 'stretch his body,' he wanted to maintain a good relationship with the local forces so that it would be convenient for him to come back in the future.

After a moment's thought, he raised his hand, and a burst of silver light appeared in his palm, intertwining to form two thick black books.

One of the books, with a relief of a unicorn engraved on its surface, is the sacred text of the demon god named by Vlame. The other book is simpler, with only the words "The Primordial Nourishment" written in brush on the cover.

There is an old Chinese saying: "It is impolite not to reciprocate."

"Since the mage is so generous, I cannot be stingy. These two books were acquired by chance and do not exist in this world. I will give them to the mage to supplement the library of Kamar-Taj!"

Oh?
Could it be that this great being before us is the kind who likes equivalent exchange?

Gu Yi's eyes lit up, and she immediately smiled and accepted the gift, saying, "Then I'll accept it without hesitation!"

Lin Yu replied with a smile, "No problem!"

His gift of these two books to the Ancient One was not only to build a good relationship, but also to subtly foreshadow some future events.

For example, that sacred book of demons contains a wisp of his consciousness, which, although extremely weak, is more than enough for locating.

As for the other book, "The Primordial Cultivation of Qi," it takes into account the inclusiveness of the power system in the Marvel universe, and perhaps some geniuses can cultivate it to a certain extent.

For example, Doctor Strange, who will succeed the Sorcerer Supreme in five years...

Gu Yi probably knew that Lin Yu had other plans, but she didn't care.

There are countless taboos here; one more or one less won't make a difference.

Compared to the potential dangers, Gu Yi wanted to use this opportunity to find out Lin Yu's background, as this was the key to dealing with dangers in the future!

The two ancient foxes, who had known each other for a thousand years, exchanged a knowing smile.

Lin Yu immediately took a step and stepped into the bookshelves in front of him, seemingly impatient.

The Key of Solomon, The Dead Sea Scrolls, The Book of Devil's Revelation, Dictionary of Hell...

As Lin Yu's gaze swept over the ancient books in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a deep sense of awe.

These books, which sound malicious, were placed prominently at the front, showing that he underestimated the freedom of knowledge in Kamar-Taj and, more importantly, the power of the Ancient One.

With such capricious rules, if it were a different Sorcerer Supreme, Kamar-Taj would probably have self-destructed long ago!
As Lin Yu sighed inwardly, he casually picked up a book titled "Abatel" and began reading it with great interest.

Gu Yi stood smiling outside the bookshelf, quietly waiting for Lin Yu.

She thought that someone like Lin Yu would only be interested in knowledge of the same level, but to her surprise, for a full three hours, Lin Yu was still in the initial area and showed no intention of leaving.

The smile on Gu Yi's face was somewhat stiff.

After a slight hesitation, she tentatively called out, "Your Excellency?"

Lin Yu looked up at her, seemingly surprised, and asked, "Why are you still here?"

Gu Yi: "..."

Is it possible that this is her territory?
Lin Yu looked thoughtful, then suddenly realized and said, "If the Master has something to attend to, please go ahead and do your thing. Don't worry about me. Just let me stay here and read quietly!"

"..."

Gu's eyelid twitched, and he smiled as he said, "Karmar-Taj has always been lenient, so I don't need to do everything myself. However, the Master of Fuxi Sword returned to New York half a minute ago. May I ask your presence..."

"So that's what happened."

Lin Yu suddenly realized, and then said with a smile, "It's okay, let him go back. I left a mark on him, so no matter what happens, he won't escape my eyes."

It seems this person is determined to stay in the library!
What happened to the promised tour?

Is this what they mean by "it's easy to invite a god, but difficult to send him away"?

The Ancient One had a headache and felt a little regretful about her previous rash actions.

After a moment's thought, she sighed and said, "Please, sir, do as you wish!"

After she finished speaking, she raised her right hand and drew a circle in the air.

With a hiss of golden sparks, a circular portal appeared before her.

Ancient One stepped into the ancient palace within the portal, smiled and bowed to Lin Yu, then turned it off... Hmm?

Why can't I turn it off?
