…
Lin Wudao immediately pulled out his attribute panel and checked the various information. When he saw the ‘Note’ column, which said that the curse had been completely removed, he heaved a sigh of relief.
The massive stone in his heart finally landed!
From now on, he would no longer have to worry about being cursed and having his life taken away.
“I am brand new and complete!”
He muttered in a low voice.
He glanced coldly at Lin Tiannan and the rest who had gathered outside the manor, then left without looking back.
“Sigh…”
Feeling Lin Wudao’s indifference, the Lin Clan was terrified and bitter.
Everyone, including the clan leader Lin Tiannan, was wrong!
Initially, everyone thought Lin Wudao would be defeated in one blow and killed by the Taixuan Sect master. Then, however, even the people of the Taixuan Sect were suppressed.
He was killed with just one palm!
This result subverted their understanding.
“The Taixuan Sect Deacon, Zhou Tianzheng, is a powerhouse cultivated to the sixth level of the Dao Palace realm. Yet, he was killed by Lin Wudao with a single palm strike. What level has his strength reached?”
Someone exclaimed in shock.
“He’s definitely above the Dao Palace realm!”
“Sigh, we’ve wholly offended Lin Wudao. Once he retaliates, our Lin Clan will be in trouble!”
“Hmph, what’s there to be afraid of?”
“He’d better get past the Taixuan Sect first!”
Lin Tianhe’s expression was extremely gloomy.
He had an inexplicable hatred for Lin Wudao. Even if he had made a mistake or misjudged Lin Wudao, he would never admit it.
In his opinion, everything he did was for the Lin Clan!
The more powerful Lin Wudao was, the earlier he had to remove him from the clan.
He was only at the Dao Palace realm but had already offended the Taixuan Sect. If he became more robust in the future, given his personality, he did not know what trouble he would cause.
At that time, the entire Lin Clan would be implicated by him!
It was best to expel him from the clan as soon as possible!
“Let’s go back first. We’ll talk about it later,” he sighed.
Lin Tiannan immediately left Worriless Manor with his clan members.
…
After they left, Han Qingshan went to Lin Wudao’s room.
He was also shocked just now!
However, he was more excited and happy.
“Young Master, has your current cultivation level reached the sixth-level Dao Palace realm?”
“That’s right,” Lin Wudao responded softly.
Upon hearing this, Han Qingshan got more and more excited.
“Zhou Tianzheng was the Inner Sect Deacon in Taixuan Sect. You killed him in front of everyone, Young Master. The Heavenly Treasure Mirror has been updated.”
“Now, almost everyone in the entire land of Jiuzhou knows about it!”
“I’m worried they will send more powerful people here after the Taixuan Sect knows about this. By then, it will be challenging to deal with them. So why don’t we go to the Demon Subduing Division in Yuan State to hide in the meantime?”
He suggested in a low voice.
Lin Wudao’s expression was apathetic, without a trace of worry or fear.
“Uncle Han, don’t worry. I will deal with the Taixuan Sect!”
“Next, I will stay in Qing Yuan Ancient City for half a month. Then, if nothing unexpected happens, we will go to Yuan State’s Demon Subduing Division.”
“Alright, then…”
Seeing how insistent Lin Wudao was, Han Qingshan did not say anything more and left the room respectfully.
The real reason why Lin Wudao wanted to stay in Qing Yuan Ancient City for another half a month was to see the reaction of the Taixuan Sect.
Killing Zhou Tianzheng was no different from provoking the Taixuan Sect!
If everything went according to plan, the Taixuan Sect would send even more powerful masters to Qing Yuan Ancient City to take revenge.
If that were the case, it would be precisely what Lin Wudao wanted.
As long as the people of the Taixuan Sect dared to come, he would dare to kill them.
He could continue to collect the corpses and become stronger.
Thinking of this, Lin Wudao turned his hand and opened the Heavenly Treasure Mirror. Sure enough, the news of Zhou Tianzheng and Jiang Qingxue’s deaths had appeared on it.
[ Breaking news: Tianwu Calendar, Year 9984, Seventh of October, the Inner Sect Deacon of Taixuan Sect, Zhou Tianzheng, and the successive disciple, Jiang Qingxue, were killed by Lin Wudao in Qing Yuan Ancient City! ]
“That’s swift.”
Lin Wudao sighed with emotion as he read the message on the Heavenly Treasure Mirror.
Afterward, he kept the Heavenly Treasure Mirror and continued cultivating his powers.
…
In the next half a month, the deaths of Zhou Tianzheng and Jiang Qingxue of the Taixuan Sect set off a great uproar in the Jiuzhou land and became countless people’s laughingstock.
At the same time, the entire land of Jiuzhou was filled with curiosity toward Lin Wudao.
That was because no one knew how strong he was.
Even the Human World Tower did not provide any information!
This caused the outside world to be even more bewildered.
Lin Wudao turned a blind eye!
In the past half a month, he had been immersed in cultivation. Although his cultivation did not improve much, he was happy.
However, to his surprise, after waiting for half a month, no one from the Taixuan Sect had come.
“The Taixuan Sect seems not as simple as we thought. I’m afraid they won’t make any big moves before they completely figure out my background and strength.”
“In other words, they won’t be coming to kill me in the short term.”
Lin Wudao frowned.
He was pretty disappointed!
Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
…
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
“Young Master, someone from the Demon Subduing Division of Yuan Zhou is here…”
What?
The Taixuan Sect did not come, but the Demon Subduing Division came.
Lin Wudao was surprised.
He pondered for a while, then pushed open the door and walked out.
“Who are they?”
“Well, it’s a Honglu Messenger from the Demon Subduing Division in Yuan State. He wants to invite you to take up a position in the Demon Subduing Division. Then, if nothing unexpected happens, you should be able to take over the role of the old Master.”
“Lord of the Demon Hunter Hall?”
“Yes, indeed!” Han Qingshan’s eyes shone with excitement.
The son inherited his father’s career.
All along, he had hoped that Lin Wudao would achieve something. If he could take over the position of the Lord of the Demon Hunter Hall, it would be great, and he was happy to see it happen.
Lin Wudao did not say much about Han Qingshan’s thoughts.
He left his courtyard and came to the main hall of the manor.
In the massive hall, a blue-robed young man with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes were already waiting for him.
The peak of the Wheel of Life realm!
It seemed like he was a peerless genius!
Lin Wudao had an answer in his heart after a glance.
“I’m the Honglu Messenger of the Demon Subduing Division of Yuan Zhou, Yun Jianfei. Greetings, Young Master Lin…”
The young man in blue stood up and cupped his fists.
“I heard you are here to invite me to the Demon Subduing Division?”
“Yes, I am!”
“Half a month ago, Young Master Lin killed Zhou Tianzheng and Jiang Qingxue of the Taixuan Sect with a single palm. This news has shaken the entire Jiuzhou.”
“Of course, the Demon Subduing Division will try our best to invite an unparalleled prodigy like Young Master Lin!”
“This time, I am here under the orders of our Governor. Therefore, I sincerely request Young Master Lin to take up a position in the Demon Subduing Division of Yuan State: the Lord of the Demon Hunter Hall role.”
“The son will inherit his father’s career. So it would be a good story…” Yun Jianfei said with a smile.
Lin Wudao fell into silence as if he considered the invitation.
Yun Jianfei did not disturb him and waited patiently.
“Tell me about the general situation of Yuan State’s Demon Subduing Division.”
“Alright!” Yun Jianfei agreed happily.
Then, he began to introduce the Demon Subduing Division in Yuan State.
“The Demon Subduing Division in Yuan State is a powerful force in the Li Dynasty. It is mainly responsible for governing the cultivators in Yuan State and maintaining its order and stability.”
“Currently, there is a Governor, four Deputy Governors, eight Lords, 72 Guardians, 300 Deacons, and 100000 Demon Subduing emissaries in the Demon Subduing Division.”
“The current Governor of the Demon Subduing Division is Zhao Xuanxiao…”
Yun Jianfei kept on introducing. He spoke earnestly, and Lin Wudao listened seriously.
With Yun Jianfei’s explanation, he understood the situation of the Demon Subduing Division in Yuan State.
“Can a Lord be promoted?”
“Of course!”
“As long as your contribution to the Demon Subduing Division reaches a certain level and your cultivation and strength are sufficient, the Lord can be promoted to the position of Deputy Governor or even the Governor.”
“The Demon Subduing Division will do everything based on powers!”
“You can win respect and a high position if you are strong enough.”
Yun Jianfei seemed to be implying something.
Lin Wudao nodded indifferently.
“Alright, I accept the invitation to the Demon Subduing Division!”
“After I’ve settled the matters in Qing Yuan Ancient City, I’ll naturally report for work.”
Hearing this, Yun Jianfei smiled and left.
“Uncle Han, get ready. We’ll head to Yuan State’s Demon Subduing Division in three days.”
“Yes, Young Master!”
“I remember that in three days, the Lin Clan will be undergoing the test of the heavens. When that time comes, will the Great Tribulation of High Heavens descend?”
“Yes!”
“Okay.”
The Great Tribulation of High Heavens would kill people!
Lin Wudao felt that his corpse-collecting business had a new twist.
