The voice that suddenly appeared had a gentle tone, as if it was asking “good morning” and “have you eaten?”
However, in Lin Yan’s ears, it was no less than a thunderclap.
His blood energy suddenly boiled as he subconsciously retreated to the side. At the same time, he threw a punch with a thousand catties of strength.
“Eh?”
A surprised voice came from the other side. Then, a soft but tenacious force enveloped and digested Lin Yan’s punch, causing the force of his punch to be completely empty.
Lin Yan’s expression changed drastically. His punch was canceled out before it could touch anything!
Only when he was 30 feet away did Lin Yan become on guard. He turned around and his pupils constricted slightly.
There was not one person beside him just now, but two!
One of them was nearly 40 years old, and his hair and beard were exquisite. The other was in his twenties, and he had a warm white jade band tied to his forehead. His face was like jade.
The two of them had an air of nobility that was incompatible with Ding’an City. However, the clothes they were wearing were extremely loose. They were a full size smaller and stuck tightly to their bodies, revealing their wrists and ankles. It was obvious that they had put on the clothes at the last minute.
The 40-year-old middle-aged man in front sized up Lin Yan. His eyes lit up slightly, revealing a hint of surprise. “Little Brother, you’re good at fighting. How old are you? Are you over 20?”
Lin Yan moved his feet and cupped his hands warily. “Senior, you flatter me. 1 heard that Chengyang District has such a place. It’s the one in the southwest corner of the Nine Inner Districts.”
The man smiled and said, “There’s no hurry. With your skills and talent, it’s really a waste to stay in this small Ding’an City. 1 happen to be recruiting people recently. How about it? Do you want to try?”
Lin Yan took a step back. “Senior, you’re too kind. 1 still have something important to do.
If there’s nothing else, 1’11 take my leave.”
The middle-aged man could not help but laugh. “Little brother, you’re treating me as a liar.”
Lin Yan moved back.
“Alright, 1 have something urgent to do now, so 1 can’t keep you. If you change your mind, you can go to South Mountain Mansion and report the name of the Demon Suppression Division, Ji Ying. Someone will naturally tell you what to do.”
Lin Yan retreated again. “If there’s a chance, I’ll definitely visit you. Goodbye!”
With that, he turned around and left.
After watching Lin Yan disappear at the end of the alley, Ji Ying turned around in anger and amusement and asked the young man beside him, “Xiao Li, am 1 that scary?”
The young man’s name was Chen Li, and he said respectfully, “Master Ji, you must be joking. That kid is so arrogant because he doesn’t know your identity. If he knows what kind of fortune he missed, he’ll probably regret it to death.”
Ji Ying nodded.
“However, that kid does have the right to be arrogant. He looks to be three to four years younger than you, right? However, be it his speed or the punch just now, he’s only a little weaker than you. It’s really unbelievable.”
Chen Li’s pupils constricted. He knew his identity and naturally understood how unbelievable it was for a mediocre citizen of the lower city to be close to his strength despite being younger than him.
Ji Ying sighed. “This is a small pond. A big dragon has appeared.”
A look of dissatisfaction flashed across Chen Li’s face before he regained his composure. “No matter how big a dragon is, it has to die if it’s raised in a pond.”
Ji Ying laughed and said, “You’re not willing to admit defeat.
“However, you’re right. If you don’t jump out of this small pond and can’t come into contact with the true martial arts techniques, you’ll never be able to nurture the blood energy characteristics.
“When you break through in the future, you can only be like these useless martial masters in the lower city. They have the name of the Noble Realm, but they don’t have any force characteristics.”
At the thought of this, his heart itched as if it were being scratched by a cat.
Recently, he had just been promoted and happened to be short of subordinates. It was not easy for him to meet someone with high talent. He was delighted to see him.
If not for the strict rules of the higher-ups not to interfere with the lower city easily, he would have wanted to take action directly just now and capture Lin Yan first.
However, with such talent, he must be quite famous in Ding’an City.
After he investigated and resolved the question that Ding’an City had not participated in the Dingdeng Battle, he would definitely be able to find them after spending some time.
He tugged at his tight collar. “The design of the clothes in the lower city is too poor. It’s difficult to wear. Let’s go. Let’s hurry to South Mountain Mansion. These people are just wasting their time. They haven’t replied to me for ten days in a row. This isn’t how they should spend their retirement!”
The two of them walked quickly and arrived at Chengyang District according to Lin Yan’s instructions.
Every city would set up a secret office to monitor and contact the people. Even the City Lord did not know.
Although this was the first time the two of them had come to Ding’an City, there were special signs on the secret offices. After walking around, they quickly locked onto South Mountain Mansion.
Ji Ying waved his hand, and Chen Li immediately went forward to knock on the door.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Soon, an old man in his fifties opened the door.
Chen Li showed a hand sign, and the old man immediately bowed respectfully. Both sides exchanged secret signals, and the old man called the two of them in.
A blood-red lantern was lit. The old man hunched his back as he introduced the situation to the two of them and led them in.
The path was dim. Every step he took seemed to lead him into deeper darkness.
As they chatted and walked, Ji Ying’s expression suddenly darkened. He stretched out his arm like a bolt of lightning and grabbed the old man by the neck. “1 felt that something was wrong with you just now! You said that the five inspectors have all gone back to sleep? However, there are only four inspectors registered on the case!”
His eyes were like copper bells as he glared. “Tell me! Who are you?! How did you know the secret signal?!”
The old man struggled with all his might. Suddenly, he took out a dagger and stabbed it at Ji Ying.
A cold light flashed in Ji Ying’s eyes. He shook his wrist violently, and a huge force passed through him. In an instant, all the bones in the old man s body were shaken loose. Then, he threw him to the ground. “You’re playing such a small trick in front of me?”
Suddenly.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
The rhythmic applause came from the darkness.
A weak-looking young man with golden-rimmed glasses slowly walked out of the darkness. Behind him, several strange figures hid in the darkness like ghosts.
“Cough, cough. As expected of the newly promoted Order Issuer of the Demon Suppression Division. Your eyesight and strength are first-rate. However, I don’t understand. Has the dignified Demon Suppression Division also begun to interfere in the affairs of the lower city?”
Ji Ying sized up the young man, especially when he saw his exquisite glasses. His eyes immediately narrowed.
Ding’an City didn’t have such exquisite gold-framed glasses. It should be said that Ding’an City didn’t have glasses at all.
His mind was like lightning. “So, you killed all the people of South Mountain Mansion?” “They’re not dead, but they’re almost there.”
Ji Ying was expressionless. “In that case, the reason why Ding’an City didn’t participate in the Dingdeng Battle this year was also because of you?” “I just saved a group of innocent people and led them into greater causes.”
A smile appeared on Ji Ying’s face. “Very good. 1 originally thought that it would take some effort to investigate. 1 didn’t expect you to come knocking on my door.”
He moved his fingers and walked forward step by step. The cold light in his eyes soared. “In that case, 1’11 capture you and bring you back. It’ll save me a lot of trouble!”
Behind the young man, the strange black shadows moved slightly, wanting to go forward.
However, the young man stretched out his hand and pressed it against the air. He coughed twice and said weakly, “He is not those useless martial masters in Ding’an City. This guy is in the Noble Realm and has terrifying strength. You should retreat.”
After saying that, he coughed twice again and walked out weakly.
“This time, I’ll do it myself.”
South Mountain Mansion…
Lin Yan only slowed down when he couldn’t sense the auras of the two of them at all. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his heart beat like a drum.
That middle-aged man just now…
Terrifying!
Without any warning, the man actually charged into his side and casually blocked his full-strength attack from afar.
If the man attacked him, Lin Yan would probably be no match for him.
“South Mountain Mansion…”
Lin Yan knew this place. At that time, the rice paper with the Thunder Token on it was found in the Black Tiger Gang. Behind it were the words “Chengyang District – South Mountain Mansion”. That was why Lin Yan could report South Mountain Mansion’s address in time.
Could it be that the expert just now was related to the Wind Thunder Pavilion of Qianyuan Prefecture?
But why did he mention a place called the Demon Suppression Division?
Did he look for Lin Yan because of Xiaozhi?
Could it be that he wanted to follow Lin Yan and find where Xiaozhi was?
Lin Yan quickly turned around and looked at the houses and alleys behind him.
The terrain in Ding’an City was too complicated. With the other party’s strength, if he really wanted to hide, Lin Yan would definitely not be able to discover him.
Unlucky, too unlucky.
Lin Yan heaved a sigh of relief. He had to buy the calming medicine first.
He ran all the way to the pharmacy in Chengguang District. The four wooden doors were closed.
Lin Yan was anxious and knocked on the door.
“What are you doing?! Can’t you see that the door is closed?! Get lost! Come back tomorrow!” “I’m sorry, my sister is sick…” “We ll talk about it after she dies! Get lost…”
Bang!
Lin Yan’s palm turned into a knife that cut through the wooden doors like tofu. With a forceful tug, a piece of the door flew away.
Then, he reached out and grabbed the other door. The two door planks were torn off and casually thrown to the ground.
Lin Yan strode into the pharmacy and said seriously to the waiter lying in the pharmacy who was about to flare up, “My sister is really sick. Please make an exception.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his right foot gently and stomped hard. A series of cracking sounds rang out, and a circle of deep cracks like a spider web spread out from under his feet.
The shop assistant’s voice was stuck in his throat. His entire face turned the color of pig liver, and he was so frightened that he could not say a word.
“Quickly call the apothecary!” “Aye, aye!”
The shop assistant trembled all over and hurriedly got up. He went in and called out the apothecary.
After the other party timidly prepared the herbs Lin Yan needed, Lin Yan put down an ingot of silver and left.
“Hey, hero, we don’t need so much!”
However, Lin Yan had already disappeared at the end of the alley without looking back..
