148: Jiangcheng [Happy New Year! ]

With the matter resolved, Zhou Luo comforted, "Of course, if I can refuse this marriage, then you won't need to do those three things."

Lin Xin didn't reply, just walked out dejectedly, preparing to write a letter to the Family Head.

Wang Yuwei, who had been watching everything from beginning to end, finally spoke again, "You are even more cautious than I imagined."

"If I wasn't cautious, you wouldn't have seen me," Zhou Luo said, waving his hand, and also left.

Getting a batch of Cultivation resources this time without paying anything was truly a pleasant experience for him.

As for how Lin Xin would explain it to the Zhou Family, he didn't care.

No matter what, he wouldn't suffer any loss.

And there were those three things.

Given Lin Xin's status, perhaps she could really help him at a crucial moment.

In the afternoon.

Wang Li appeared again, bringing a Manager.

Perhaps due to the events of the morning, he no longer had his previous smile, and his expression seemed somewhat cold.

"It just so happens that the Wang Family is sending people to Jiang City this time, you can go together," Wang Li said.

As expected, the Wang Family was still not completely at ease about Wang Yuwei.

Even with Lin Xin present, they still arranged for someone to monitor the journey.

No one said much about this matter.

The next morning.

A group of five rode spirit steeds and galloped towards Jiang City.

Jiang City was still some distance from Qing City.

On the way, due to the sudden addition of the Wang Family members, in order to prevent her lie from being exposed.

Lin Xin had to maintain a close relationship with Zhou Luo, changing her previous arrogant demeanor and becoming somewhat approachable instead.

Zhou Luo quite enjoyed this kind of life where someone brought him water when he was thirsty and food when he was hungry.

Half a month later.

The group finally saw Jiang City.

This secular city was significantly smaller than Maple Leaf City, but the official road was bustling with people coming and going, making it very lively.

The five arrived at the city gate, where two Lin Family Cultivators were standing guard, inspecting the passing crowds.

Because Jiang City was relatively close to Azure Origin Sect.

Although it was a small city, there were quite a few Cultivators entering and leaving, and one could even see arrogant-looking Azure Origin Sect Disciples.

Even if the other party was just an Outer Sect Disciple.

In this place, it was enough to make everyone show respect.

When the Lin Family Cultivators saw that the arrivals were the Family's Third Miss, they were immediately frightened and respectfully led them into the city.

Jiang City was located at the boundary between the "secular world" and the "Cultivation World," so there were also many ordinary people here.

Walking on the street, Zhou Luo occasionally looked at the pavilion shops on both sides of the street.

He found that although the city was not as large as Maple Leaf City, it was well-equipped, with various shops related to Cultivation.

There were even various entertainment venues.

Passersby who saw the Lin Family Cultivators leading the way cast curious glances.

Especially Zhou Luo and the two women, who were like handsome men and beautiful women, causing those ordinary people to turn their heads repeatedly.

In the crowd, an ordinary-looking Middle-aged man stood by the roadside, silently watching the five people walk by, a strange light flashing deep in his eyes.

"Why would people from the Wang Family come here?"

He muttered silently in his heart.

He had seen the elderly man who looked like a Manager among the five in the Zhou Family and naturally recognized him.

And the Middle-aged man was none other than Wang Tong, who had previously wreaked havoc in Maple Leaf City.

Since he had led the remaining Joyful Union Sect Disciples to narrowly escape the pursuit of the Lin Family Elders last time.

They were again subjected to a massive manhunt by the Azure Origin Sect.

Ultimately, the remaining Disciples suffered heavy losses and had to flee to the Dragon Phoenix Mountain Range.

He, on the other hand, followed his injured Master, Liu Fuchen, to Jiang City.

Adhering to the principle of hiding in plain sight, they hid in this small city relatively close to the Azure Origin Sect, temporarily escaping disaster and not being discovered.

At this moment, Wang Tong's gaze was fixed on the five people.

Aside from the Wang Family Manager, he hadn't seen the others, but he was certain they were descendants of Immortal Family.

Especially the two stunning beauties, which made Wang Tong's lips dry and a wicked fire surge in his heart.

If he could abduct them, his Master's injuries might be alleviated.

Thinking of this, he quietly left and disappeared at the alley entrance.

On the other side, led by the Lin Family Cultivator, the five arrived in front of a vast estate.

At the entrance of the estate, someone had already been waiting for a long time.

It was an old man dressed in brocade and luxurious clothes, followed by a group of Cultivators wearing Lin Family clothing.

After the old man saw who had arrived, he quickly bowed.

"Third Miss."

The others also bowed, their postures respectful.

"Mm," Lin Xin responded and was the first to walk into the estate.

Zhou Luo and the others followed closely behind.

As for the old man from the Wang Family, he excused himself and walked towards the Wang Family's shop.

The pavilions within the estate were scattered in an orderly manner, each one exquisitely carved and painted, magnificent and grand.

The old man led Lin Xin all the way to the largest main building.

As the person with the highest status present, Lin Xin naturally sat in the main seat.

Zhou Luo and Wang Yuwei sat on the left side, and Lin Dong sat on the right side.

The old man stood in the center of the hall, his head lowered, not daring to act presumptuously in the slightest.

"Uncle Lin, you sit too," Lin Xin said gently.

Perhaps because of what happened along the way.

The arrogance she carried was completely gone, and her originally indifferent face also showed a hint of gentleness, no longer keeping people at a distance.

The Uncle Lin she referred to was the old man in front of her.

The old man's name was Lin San, the main person in charge of Jiang City, with a Qi Training seventh-layer Cultivation.

Hearing this, Lin San then walked to the right side and sat down, and began to explain the situation of Jiang City to the four people present.

The Lin Family controlled the entire city, so all important industries were under their jurisdiction.

Those foreign Cultivators and ordinary people could only open some daily shops.

According to the Zhou Family's instructions.

Next, the first thing Lin Xin and Zhou Luo needed to do was to familiarize themselves with the Zhou Family's industries and understand how they operated.

After all, as the outstanding younger generation of the Lin Family, they would definitely become the backbone of the Zhou Family in the future and must understand these things.

In addition, they could also explore the wilderness with the Cultivators in the city in their spare time.

The closest to Jiang City was the Dragon Phoenix Mountain Range.

The Dragon Phoenix Mountain Range was vast in area and extremely large, comparable to the entire Azure Origin Sect.

This was because it was originally one of the founding locations of the Joyful Union Sect.

Precisely because of this, this vast mountain range contained various natural treasures.

For hundreds of years, countless Cultivators had ventured into the mountain range one after another to explore.

However, the Dragon Phoenix Mountain Range was far more dangerous than imagined.

Whether it was the ferocious demonic beasts or the presence of Evil Cultivators and Rogue Cultivator, they made everyone who entered the mountain range walk on thin ice, not daring to be careless.

Even so, a large number of Cultivators perished within it every year.

This included Disciples of the Azure Origin Sect.

The Azure Origin Sect did not pursue accountability for this.

After all, without the threat of Death, how could Cultivators break through their own limits?

Therefore, the Azure Origin Sect publicly stated that no matter who, anyone who perished in the Dragon Phoenix Mountain Range would not be their concern.

Without rules, evil will breed.

This also led to the Dragon Blood Mountain Range becoming increasingly dangerous.

To this day, the Dragon Phoenix Mountain Range is still one of the most chaotic regions in the Qingyuan Domain.

Lin San reminded them to try to only operate in the outer areas and not venture into the depths.

In the depths of the Dragon Phoenix Mountain Range, people would not show mercy just because you were a descendant of a Immortal Family.
