Chapter 347: Chapter 243: High Levels of the Holy Land! Rustic Savage Husband!

Mr. Lu’s small courtyard.

Lin Yan, Lin Lei, and Lv Tang, all stood outside the room in silence.

Mr. Lu was inside, changing his clothes, preparing to meet the so-called unwelcome guests.

Logically, now that Mr. Lu had achieved Refining God and with the fierce reputation of Lin Yan, the visitors in High Willow City should only be there to offer congratulations.

Unwelcome guests!

They must be from outside the city!

Is it from Qifeng Prefecture, or the Holy Land?

As Lin Yan was thinking this, he looked up only to see his elder brother looking at him with a strange expression.

"..."

The two brothers fell into silence.

After a long while, Lv Tang coughed and said, "If you have something to say, just say it. Why sulk like this?"

Lin Lei glanced at Lv Tang and said, "My youngest brother Lin Yan, working at Linjiang Station, is often said to be highly regarded by the Inspection Envoy Wu Chang, almost as if he were his own..."

Upon hearing this, Lv Tang sneered.

What do you mean almost as if his own?

This is indeed his own!

"Elder brother?"

Lin Yan hesitated slightly.

"I guessed that you have many secrets on you, not just an ordinary small commander."

Lin Lei said expressionlessly, "I never expected you to be so bold as to impersonate the Inspection Envoy Wu Chang!"

Lv Tang’s expression stiffened for a moment, about to speak.

Then he heard Lin Yan laugh lightly and nod his head.

"What was done in the past will still be done in the future."

Lin Lei, saying this, did not elaborate further.

In fact, he had been suspicious for some time.

However, he had not seen the "Inspection Envoy Wu Chang" often in the past.

And with the Inspection Envoy’s renowned reputation, he dared not make any outrageous guesses.

He only felt that his younger brother had some hidden secrets not known to others, not as simple as he seemed on the surface.

But he had not expected it to be this complicated!

Remembering the deeds of Wu Chang, which had recently turned the entire High Willow City upside down, causing storms and rivers of blood, with decapitations abound.

Even the ancient ancestor of the Liu Family, considered an old immortal in legends, died by Wu Chang’s hand.

This person turned out to be his own younger brother?

He looked deeply at Lin Yan, then withdrew his gaze, his thoughts inevitably complex.

At that moment, the door of the room was pushed open, and Mr. Lu came out.

At this moment, Mr. Lu’s qi was contained, seemingly no different from before he advanced to the Refining God Realm.

"Though it was dangerous, fortunately, all the things previously planned were successful."

Mr. Lu’s expression was also quite complex as he sighed and said, "This time’s unwelcome guests are not to be underestimated. During the conversation, if there’s no directive from me, don’t draw your sword rashly. Try to control your killing intent."

Then, Lin Lei’s and Lv Tang’s gazes both fell on Lin Yan.

The only one in the courtyard Mr. Lu would advise to restrain his killing intent and refrain from drawing his sword was Wu Chang.

"What are you saying, Mr. Lu? I am not a bloodthirsty person..."

Lin Yan slightly frowned, "As long as the other party does not seek death, I do not need to draw my sword and kill people at will!"

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment.

Lv Tang silently pointed his hand towards the several heads hanging high in Linjiang Square.

Lin Yan’s expression remained unchanged as he lightly said, "The heads hanging up there, which one did not come seeking death themselves? It is fulfilling their own wishes, not bloodthirst!"

"..."

Seeing the odd atmosphere, Lin Lei coughed and then said, "Now that Mr. Lu has succeeded in Refining God Skill, what capabilities does he possess that still require honoring the other party?"

"The upper echelons of the Holy Land!"

Mr. Lu’s expression grew solemn as he spoke, "The leader is the Chief True Man who oversees the sixth lineage of the Holy Land, accompanied by two elders, four officials, and eight disciples."

"There is also one person, a direct disciple of the current Master of the Holy Land, ranked thirteenth, known as the Thirteenth Young Master."

Pausing for a moment, then we heard Mr. Lu continue, "This Chief True Man also has another identity, he is the uncle of the current Great City Guard of Qifeng Prefecture!"

Lin Yan pondered and said, "Are these figures coming for Mr. Lu’s advancement to Refining God?"

Mr. Lu shook his head slightly and said, "He set off from the Holy Land before I had planned to advance to Refining God!"

Lin Yan’s gaze sharpened, yet he did not speak.

Not for Mr. Lu!

Within High Willow City, what else deserved the personal attention of this Chief True Man?

Either for the Lord of the Blessed Land or for High Willow City!

After a moment of thought, Lin Yan suddenly asked, "How powerful is this Chief True Man?"

Mr. Lu, Lv Tang, and Lin Lei were all slightly shaken in their hearts.

How did they hear an eagerness to try from Lin Yan’s words?

"Boy, keep your thoughts in check, and stop always thinking about killing."

Mr. Lu said gravely, "This Chief True Man, born in the Holy Land, cultivated from a young age, a prodigious talent, and by the age of forty-six, had refined the Qi Refining Realm to its limit."

"At the age of fifty-six, he took over as the Sixth Vein Master, and within the Token, there were blessings accumulated by all generations of Chief True Men."

"With this token, though not in the Refining God Realm, one could still possess the power of Refining God!"

"He is seventy-nine this year, has held the Token for twenty-three years, and manipulates its divine power with ease, not to be underestimated!"

As he spoke, Mr. Lu seemed to recall the past, quite emotional.

"Do you know, when Tribulation Ash first created the Daluo Immortal Body, it allowed those out of control to maintain their sanity, but this Physical Body Evil, freed from the limitations of human meridians, caused the amount of True Qi to exceed the natural limits of the human body, far surpassing the range defined by the Human Clan for the Qi Refining Realm."

"Tribulation Ash’s Daluo Immortal Body posed a great threat to various cities, and upon learning this, the high echelons of the Holy Land sent this Sixth Vein Master to be stationed in Qifeng Prefecture City!"

"He was stationed in Qifeng Prefecture for ten years, and those who cultivated the Daluo Immortal Body and became Physical Body Evils, more than five died by his hand!"

With Mr. Lu’s words, the expressions of the three men became extremely solemn.

Lv Tang couldn’t help but whisper, "In High Willow City, the highest cultivation is just at the peak of the Qi Refining Realm! Now that such a person has come from the Holy Land, he is even capable of dominating the entire High Willow City!"

"Before they set out, they did not expect that this old man would have advanced to the Refining God Realm; their visit this time was to suppress High Willow City!"

Mr. Lu slowly said, "These are true people of the Holy Land! The Gui Lin you killed last time was a disciple casually accepted by that Holy Land Envoy, incomparable in status."

At this point, he sighed, looking at Lin Yan, and then said, "You also know that the people inside High Willow City, regard the people of the outer city as lowly."

"The citizens of the outer city, when facing the refugees outside the city, also can’t help but feel superior."

"And those born from the Holy Land often have a superior attitude, looking down on all beings, despising the common people."

"Moreover, the person who has come today has a high status in the Holy Land, and he is sure to be extremely arrogant."

"Old man knows you dislike these kinds of people, but after all, they are born from the Holy Land of the Human Clan, and it is the birthplace of the new laws of this era!"

"During the discussions to come, you can speak up if you feel displeased, but be prudent when you think about drawing your sword!"

As he spoke, Mr. Lu was about to say something but he frowned slightly and looked outside, saying, "They have arrived!"

"Mr. Lu resigned from his temple priest position to retire in High Willow City, thinking it was a decline in his later years, but who would have guessed that today he would successfully achieve the Refining God Realm, ascending in one step, surpassing his past by countless times, a truly congratulatory event!"

The voice of an elder from outside the courtyard was quite loud as he laughed, "It is fortunate to witness the birth of a Refining God Realm being, a grand event not seen in many years!"

"Chief True Man, you are too kind."

Mr. Lu personally opened the door to welcome the visitor inside and with a smile said, "An honored guest at the door, what a radiant blessing! Not knowing Chief True Man would arrive, I failed to welcome you from afar, I hope you forgive me!"

"What are you saying, Mr. Lu, in terms of status and position, you are not beneath me."

The elder walked into the courtyard, laughing as he said, "If we talk about the height of cultivation, I am merely relying on the blessings of my ancestors, far less than Mr. Lu who genuinely achieved the Refining God Realm!"

The two elders, like old friends who had not seen each other for many years, entered the house hand in hand, exchanging pleasantries and feeling the emotional shifts of the years.

Follwing the elder, about a dozen people walked into the courtyard one after another.

One of the younger men, dressed in brocade clothing, was only slightly less distinguished than the Chief True Man.

This must be that Thirteenth Young Master!

This young master, slightly raising his head, made no effort to conceal the arrogance between his brows.

His glance swept over, looking at the modest courtyard, his brows slightly furrowed as if he found it too shabby, showing a look of disgust with no attempt to hide it.

Lin Yan silently watched him, his face expressionless.

Mr. Lu’s heart trembled slightly, and he suddenly turned around, smiling as he said, "This must be the distinguished disciple of the Holy Master, ranked among the thirteen direct disciples?"

"Indeed, the junior,"

The Thirteenth Young Master replied with a slight smile and a nod.

Facing a being of the Refining God Realm, not only did he not greet properly but also appeared so casually, showing just how arrogant his heart was!

Seeing this, the Chief True Man lightly coughed.

The Thirteenth Young Master seemed to remember something and immediately greeted Mr. Lu properly.

"The Young Master is too polite,"

Mr. Lu said so.

Then hearing the Chief True Man stroke his beard and laugh, he said, "I’ve heard that within High Willow City, a prodigious talent emerged, even more dazzling than the Li Shen Sect."

Mr. Lu laughed and said, "Coincidentally, Inspector Wu Chang is in the courtyard."

Lin Yan stood with his hands behind his back, his stance upright, he nodded lightly and calmly said, "Indeed, I am!"

"How dare you!"

Suddenly, someone from the Holy Land delegation shouted, "A barbarian from the countryside, how dare you be so disrespectful?"

"Hmm?"

Lin Yan’s gaze became sharp, his hand instinctively reaching for the hilt of his sword.

But remembering something, he reluctantly let go and greeted the Chief True Man respectfully.

"Truly a spirited youth, arrogant and rare in this world!"

The Chief True Man commented with a usual expression, then looked at Mr. Lu and said, "Shall we sit down and discuss the matters of High Willow City?"

"Lv Tang!"

Mr. Lu turned his head and slowly said, "Chief True Man has just admonished us for lacking the manners to host guests, are you not bringing over the chairs?"

Upon hearing this, the Chief True Man merely waved his hand and said casually, "Mr. Lu, you misunderstand, that’s not what I meant."

He continued slowly, "I have come to High Willow City this time actually for three matters! However, since Inspector Wu Chang is also here, it turns out to be six matters."
