Chapter 201: Chapter 147 Divine Blessing! [First Update]

Qifeng Prefecture, Feng City!

The entire city mobilized its military forces, all heading towards the third district, Anhua Building.

And in Feng City, numerous high-level powerhouses quickly gathered near Anhua Building.

They saw that person lifting his blade.

In the midst of the furious shouts from the high-level powerhouses,

the blade paused for a moment.

Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, thinking the situation could still be salvaged,

they saw the blade fall once again.

"It’s over!"

The high-ranking individuals in the city witnessed the firstborn son of the current Deputy City Governor of Qifeng Prefecture City being beheaded, and their hearts sank.

This eldest son of the Shi Family, ranked among the upper middle in the Refining Essence Realm, was highly valued in the Prefecture City and served as the commander of the city guard army.

But such a figure came to Feng City only to have his head chopped off?

"What deep hatred is this, to kill a man and still strike at his heart?"

Just then, they heard an old sigh, "Must you give a man hope before his death only to kill him after? Is it not enough to cut down his physical body; must you also sever his soul?"

They saw an old man on a distant tavern, holding a wine pot, looking over.

"Greetings to the Great Temple Priest!"

"Greetings to the Great Temple Priest!"

"Greetings to the Great Temple Priest!"

Outside Anhua Building, the crowd bowed in respect.

The commoners in the area also hurriedly knelt down, kowtowing rapidly.

Meanwhile, not far away, Feng City’s official emissaries, city defense soldiers, the city’s elite, the temple guard army, and the personnel from the Sky Observation Bureau had all completed the encirclement from all directions.

Anhua Building was completely surrounded, with no way out!

Many soldiers had drawn their swords, ready to strike.

The archers were already lined up neatly, just waiting for the order to unleash Ten Thousand Arrows Fired.

Yet, the criminal inside the building seemed completely unaware, casually wrapping the heads of the Shi brothers in a curtain.

Apparently finding the "knot" not pretty enough, he undid it and retied it.

Afterward, they saw him carrying a blade, attaching the bundle to his waist, and heading outside the building.

"Young and already in the Refining Essence Realm, a future without limits, what a pity to fall here," sighed the Great Temple Priest.

It was unclear whether he pitied the Shi Family’s eldest son or the young powerhouse of the Human Clan.

He placed the wine pot on the railing, looking down, and said, "Young man, do you know who he was?"

"Of course, I do."

"And yet you dared to kill him?"

"He committed a capital offense, naturally, he must be killed."

"For a capital offense, it should fall to Qifeng Prefecture for adjudication, not for you to draw your sword and commit murder."

"I personally judged and sentenced him to beheading, executed by me. Everything was done according to the rules."

"Who exactly are you?"

"High Willow City Sky Observation Bureau General Flag Envoy and acting New City Inspection Envoy, Wu Chang!"

"..."

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly fell silent.

This name, under a campaign initiated by Great General Li Shen Sect, had already spread throughout Qifeng Prefecture’s various cities.

By this day, he was no longer an unknown.

"Does the Great Temple Priest think I had the right to judge him? Do I still have the right to execute him?" Lin Yan asked, looking up towards the tavern above.

"..." The Great Temple Priest slowly said, "His father is the Deputy City Governor of Qifeng Prefecture City, and he himself is the commander of Qifeng Prefecture City’s guard army, a refining essence figure among the young generation, a paragon of the current Human Clan... His arrival in Feng City and death here demand an explanation; it’s hard to gloss over."

"He ambushed my Sky Observation Bureau Li City General Flag Envoy Pei Xiong and his brothers."

Lin Yan calmly said, "He orchestrated the Dayin River incident, leading to the transformation of a giant serpent, creating a new substantial threat to the Human Clan out of thin air!"

"Now, thousands of miles of the river are in turmoil, sweeping away numerous Pure Lands along its banks, destroying many Human Clan settlements!"

"No matter his background, no matter his status, beheading him was showing mercy."

"The matter is clear, this is the explanation!"

Lin Yan reached into his robe, took out the flag that signifies the General Flag Envoy, pinned it at his waist, then looked toward the crowd and blandly said, "This case was solely my doing, and I take full responsibility. I have now informed you of the incident, should anyone else obstruct, beware the edge of this blade..."

He raised the blade, pointing it forward, and calmly said, "Step back!"

As his voice fell, the area became silent.

And the first to step back were the subordinates of the Sky Observation Bureau.

Under the indications of the garrison commander and several General Flag Envoys, they cleared the way.

However, the city’s military forces, prefectural officials, temple guard army, and private soldiers from various factions and major families within the city did not step back.

"No one has ever been able to act recklessly in Feng City and then leave under heavy encirclement," just at this moment, a middle-aged man’s voice came from afar.

"Today, there should be."

Lin Yan looked toward the middle-aged man, slowly opening his mouth.

But his gaze turned somewhat solemn.

The Great Temple Priest, another high-level authority in Feng City, followed a cultivation method similar to Mr. Lu’s, still confined to a mortal body.

But this middle-aged man was a genuine Qi Refining Realm practitioner with deep cultivation, even slightly higher than Zhou Yuan, the Deputy Commander of the High Willow City Sky Observation Bureau.

"You killed a man, just like that, and walked away. Once the deputy governor of Shi charges the blame, the people of Feng City can’t bear it," said the middle-aged man with a sigh.

"Deputy Governor Shi is not here, but I am!" Lin Yan said calmly.

"Indeed,"

The middle-aged man rubbed his brow and looked towards the Great Temple Priest.

The Great Temple Priest’s expression was complex as he slowly said, "I serve the Heavenly Emperor Divine King, and all matters within the city fall under your jurisdiction as the Great City Guard of Feng City!"

"Has the Heavenly Emperor Divine King given any directives?"
