Council hall in the President’s Mansion
Liu Wujun, Wei Lingzhen, Du Dongtu and other great figures attended the meeting.
Below them, there was a group of practitioners who passed the Province Test. They all looked solemn and did not dare to make noise.
The atmosphere was very dull. Liu Wujun and other great figures all showed a little bit of displeasure, while those practitioners were even more depressed and their looks became intolerant and gloomy.
They were waiting for Lin Xun.
But at this time, Lin Xun was still missing, which made them all unhappy.
According to the practice of unveiling, when the Province Test certificates were issued, the first one was for the first place of Province Test and then the rest would be carried out successively.
This was not only a routine, but also a set of rules, which showed the importance of the selected practitioners in the Empire. It was also the glory of every practitioner who had participated.
As the first place of the test, if Lin Xun didn’t come, the routine couldn’t be started, so that all the people in the hall could only wait there.
“Lin Xun is undisciplined. How could he not show up for such a big thing? Does he think the certificate of examination isn’t important to him?”
A bigwig couldn’t bear Lin Xun’s absence and grunted in a deep voice to express his dissatisfaction.
“Hum, it didn’t matter that he acted odd in Province Test as a talent young man. But now he keeps us waiting for him as the results have come out. He really goes too much.”
“When he comes, I won’t show him a good attitude!”
“That’s right. We should not only give him a hard time, but also need to teach him a good lesson and beat some sense into him. It’s also good for his future.”
All of a sudden, other big shots also started to express their strong dissatisfaction.
Hearing the words of these people, the practitioners who waited in the hall were all refreshed, gloating and waiting to see Lin Xun’s play.
They were also waiting in a bad mood. They wished those big people to teach Lin a lesson and make him suffer.
“Calm down. No matter what reason Lin Xun’s has, his behavior is wrong after all. When he comes, we should scold him severely.”
The Governor Liu Wujun opened his mouth.
At this time, a guard ran from the outside of the hall. He was so anxious, sweating all over, “New report. Someone intrudes into the President’s mansion without permission!”
As soon as this report was announced, the whole audience was stunned. Did this people want to die by breaking into the President’s mansion at this time? Which of the big shots here was powerless?
“What’s wrong?”
Liu Wujun frowned.
“The man said that he came to get the Province Test certificate on behalf of Lin Xun, Lord Ruan rejected him. Then he fought fiercely and intruded the mansion...”
Before the guard finished, someone sneered, “Lin Xun really doesn’t know what’s right. Even if he doesn’t’ come, how could he sent a maniac to make trouble in President’s mansion. He is absolutely taking us for granted.”
Other big people frowned. What was the matter with Lin Xun.
And those who passed the examination widened their eyes as they were shocked. Who dared to break into the President’s mansion? Did he think that he could act at will in name of Lin Xun?
Liu Wujun could not help feeling a little angry. He got up suddenly and said, “Let me know which arrogant person dare to behave fiercely in my place.”
At this moment, he was full of a terrifying momentum, which made the air in the hall suddenly frozen and thrilled.
At the moment, there was a heroic laugh outside the hall, “Sorry for keeping you waiting so long.”
With the sound, a majestic figure strode into the hall. In a trance, people felt that what they see was not a person, but a towering mountain moving horizontally, which made them feel suffocating and oppressive.
The practitioners in the hall were all shivering at the creepy and thrilling scene.
Even many great people slightly changed their faces. Their pupils shrank suddenly, and they got up from their seats.
Only a few people, such as Liu Wujun and Wei Lingzhen, looked a little stunned and incredulous.
The majestic figure was Shue Jin. He strode into the hall, glanced around all the practitioners and focused on Liu Wujun. He grinned and said, “Old Liu, I haven’t seen you for many years. You are becoming more and more powerful with the statue of the governor.”
“How come it is you?”
Liu Wujun suddenly retreated his momentum and looked at Shue Jin with a complicated expression, fear mixed with surprise.
“Why it couldn’t be me?”
Shue Jin also put away his imposing manner and recovered his careless appearance.
Only at this time did all the people realized that the powerful man who broke in unexpectedly was familiar with the governor Liu Wujun.
Liu Wujun sighed helplessly and said, “I haven’t seen you for many years. But you are still so arrogant. Let me guess the purpose of your coming. Are you here to fight with me again?”
People suddenly breathed in a cold air on these words. The Governor Liu Wujun was the best Tao Insight Realm practitioner in the southwest province. Obviously, he had fought with this majestic man more than once before.
Shue Jin laughed, “No, it’s not interesting to fight with you. It’s better to kill some of the Dark clan. I’m here to get Lin Xun’s certificate of Province Test.”
All the people finally remembered that it turned out that this man in front of them was the riotous and arrogant man they just mentioned.
For a while, many people’s faces changed. They couldn’t believe it. They thought Lin Xun was too impolite to come in person. Moreover, the people he sent dare to break into President’s mansion at will. That was too arrogant.
Whoever would have thought that the servant sent by Lin Xun had such incomparable power?
Even Liu Wujun was stunned for a while before he sighed, “I should have guessed it, but I didn’t expect it would be you.”
Shue Jin just smiled and didn’t say much.
At once, Liu Wujun didn’t hesitate to give the provincial examination certificate belonging to Lin Xun, “Take it away.”
“Thank you. I’ll find a chance to have a drink with you later.”
Shue Jin glanced around with laughs, “Everyone, I’m a rough man, and I don’t know etiquettes. If there’s something wrong just now, please forgive me. Sorry for bothering. I’m leaving.”
After that, he walked out freely.
Liu Wujun just watched Shue Jin leave without letting him stay. Then Liu Wujin turned back to his seat and frowned and murmured, “This guy is really willing to stay there?”
It was said that Shue Jin was seriously injured in the blood Cang Mountain shrouded in the scarlet sunset. Since then, Shue Jin never appeared. He never thought about meeting Shue Jin here...
Wei Lingzhen also sighed, as if remembering some of the past.
When other big shots saw this, they couldn’t help but wonder, “What was the origin of that man?”
The practitioners in the hall were also curious.
But Liu Wujun only sent the message to the bigwigs after a short thinking, “Don’t discuss him too much. You just need to know that the Heiyao Posts received by more than ten powerful forces in the city some time ago should be related to him.”
The man of Hieyao Shrine
All of a sudden, those big shots made a clear judgment. They couldn’t help but feel shocked, looking complicated. Lin Xun asked a strongman of Hieyao Shrine to take his Province Test certificate. What was the relationship between Lin Xun and Heiyao Shrine?
Although those who passed the Province Test did not heard the secret messages between big shots, they had seen the scene just now. They all understood in their hearts that the majestic man was also a great man.
When they thought that Lin Xun could make such a big man run errand for him, they could not calm down for a long time.
At this time, Ruan lingdu stumbled into the hall, his face red and swollen and his hair totally messy, which made him extremely miserable. He cried out unwillingly, “Sir, why did you let the murderer go?”
All of a sudden, many people’s eyes became strange. This guy was obviously beaten by Shue Jin and still not knowing the situation.
Poor man!
Ruan lingdu was angry very much, but when he saw that all the people were looking different, he realized that something was wrong. He suddenly stammered, “Sir, is that man just now?”
Liu Wujun nodded.
Ruan lingdu felt like being struck by lightning. He was so ashamed that he wanted to hide himself underground. He not only offended a powerful big shot, but also humiliated himself.
It was all about the damn Lin Xun.
If Chu Feng knew Shue Jin accidentally taught Ruan Lingdu a lesson, he would be really happy.
If Lin Xun knew that Ruan lingdu blamed him for all his suffering, he would also cry out for it.
However, even Lin Xun knew all this, he wouldn’t care at all. He was about to leave Mist City. How could he care about these trifles?
The next day after Shue Jin brought back the certificate, Lin Xun, who had been staying in the room and making gadgets, finally walked out of the room.
He had packed his bags and was ready to leave immediately for the Forbidden City, the capital of the Empire.
...
Outside the city gate
“Old Jin, I don’t know when we can meet again. However, if you encounter any difficult things in the future that I can help, you must come to me.”
Lin Xun said seriously.
Shue Jin disdained, “Go away quickly. Bring these words after you have the power to defeat me.”
Lin Xun had a sulk to himself, “It’s the parting time. Can we be serious?”
Shue Jin responded, “No. I can’t.”
Lin Xun had no idea for continuing their talking. He turned his eyes and went straight to the distance.
“Boy, I won’t avenge you if you die, so you must not die.”
There was a drowsy voice of Shue Jin coming behind him, which made Lin Xun stunned. He waved his hand angrily, “Don’t worry, I won’t die earlier than you, so it is you who should be careful not to die.”
Shue Jin laughed fiercely.
Until seeing Lin Xun’s figure disappear on the horizon, Shue Jin stopped smiling, took out a bottle of wine and drank it up. He finally exhaled a long breath.
“A brave man is full of strength. If he wishes, he could be one against a thousand. Death is just a long sleep in contrast with the fighting will. Boy, we shall meet again someday.”
Shue Jin murmured and strode away without returning to Mist City. His task was completed and he must leave now.
