73: Chapter 73 Everyone Who Sees It Has a Share

Master Yun Hua's Disciple?!

The remaining few finally realized what Lin Ming's words meant.

A Zichen Peak Disciple—isn't that just a Disciple of Master Yun Hua, who has already attained a Breakthrough to the Nirvana Realm?

The smile on Deputy City Lord Zhang Yukun's face and the confidence in his heart had long since vanished.

An Elder's son and a Nirvana Ancestor's Disciple were simply in completely different leagues.

He finally understood why Lin Ming had been so fearless from the very beginning.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Zhihui nearly fainted.

He had been framing a Nirvana Ancestor's Disciple?!

For a moment, he felt as if the world were spinning around him.

"Speak up. What other Elder's sons or grandsons do you know? Tell me, and let's see if I recognize any of them," Lin Ming said, looking at Deputy City Lord Zhang Yukun.

It didn't matter if it was an Elder's Disciple, son, grandson, or grandson-in-law; even if one knew a Peak Revered Master's Disciple, it wouldn't carry any weight before Lin Ming.

After all, his Revered Master had achieved a Breakthrough to the Nirvana Realm.

However, even if she hadn't achieved a Breakthrough to the Nirvana Realm, handling them would still have been an easy task.

One must know that even the Sect Master of Yuanxu Mountain had to respectfully address his Revered Master as Senior Sister upon seeing her.

It could be said that with Lin Ming's status, as long as he didn't commit any major offense, he could basically do whatever he wanted in Yuanxu Mountain.

The next second, Lin Ming moved.

In a single stride, he arrived before Zhang Zhihui, and amidst Zhang Zhihui's terrified expression, he brought a palm down onto the top of his head.

A single palm strike, and he was dead.

Zhang Zhihui collapsed instantly, losing all signs of life.

"Superior, Zhang Zhihui slandered you, and he has now been put to death," Deputy City Lord Zhang Yukun said in a deep voice.

What a joke; his own backing was nothing compared to Lin Ming.

He and his Family simply could not afford to offend this person.

If this person said just one word, he and his Family would disappear the next second.

Deputy City Lord Zhang Yukun knew how to weigh the severity of the situation.

Therefore, Zhang Zhihui had to die; using his death to appease this person's anger was already the best possible outcome.

"You are quite decisive," Lin Ming said with a smile.

Both of these men were quite decisive in their actions.

"This is what I should have done," Deputy City Lord Zhang Yukun said expressionlessly.

"For both of your families, one hundred thousand medium-grade origin stones each, and this matter will end here," Lin Ming said, looking at the two of them.

"Understood." Upon hearing Lin Ming's words, Deputy City Lord Zhang Yukun and Song Yushu both breathed a sigh of relief.

They were afraid that Lin Ming would refuse to let the matter go, which would have been a massive problem for them.

While one hundred thousand medium-grade origin stones was certainly not a small amount for them, they could grit their teeth and come up with it.

"City Lord Ji Ze." Lin Ming immediately looked at City Lord Ji Ze and said.

"Does the Superior have any instructions?" City Lord Ji Ze quickly replied.

"Tianyuan City has become a bit chaotic. As the City Lord, you need to clean it up properly. Otherwise, it will be time for a new City Lord," Lin Ming said.

"Understood." City Lord Ji Ze immediately nodded.

He seemed to understand what was meant.

Lin Ming's side of the matter could be considered resolved through the two hundred thousand medium-grade origin stones.

But his own side had not ended; he could use this incident to properly discipline these two families and, at the same time, clean up Tianyuan City.

This was an opportunity Lin Ming had given him, and also an opportunity he wanted.

He would not let this opportunity slip by.

"Alright, that's all for now." Lin Ming prepared to leave the City Patrol Bureau.

"Right, have the origin stones delivered to the inn where I am staying," Lin Ming suddenly stopped and said to Deputy City Lord Zhang Yukun and Song Yushu.

"Also, if anyone from the Yongzhen Sect arrives in Tianyuan City, notify me."

After saying this, Lin Ming left with Su Lianxue.

Leaving City Lord Ji Ze and the others at the City Patrol Bureau.

"Third Junior Brother, Fourth Junior Brother, restrain your families properly." After seeing Lin Ming leave, City Lord Ji Ze's gaze fell upon his two Junior Brothers, and he warned them.

You provoked someone you shouldn't have.

This is the consequence.

Be grateful that this Disciple of Master Yun Hua is not a bloodthirsty person; otherwise, even if our Revered Master stepped in, she would not be able to protect you or the families behind you.

Deputy City Lord Zhang Yukun only glanced at City Lord Ji Ze, then walked to Zhang Zhihui's corpse, grabbed it with one hand, and left the City Patrol Bureau.

Song Yushu did the same, though he was not carrying away a corpse.

But in his eyes, Song Lin was no different from a corpse.

He could only say that he was lucky to have barely managed to save his life, but he had also paid the price of one hundred thousand origin stones.

"Senior Brother, this person appeared in Tianyuan City, so why didn't we receive any information at all?" Second Senior Sister Qin Lu's tense state eased slightly at this moment.

From the moment she learned of Lin Ming's identity, she had been in a state of high tension.

Lin Ming appeared in Tianyuan City, yet they hadn't received any information at all; this was somewhat different from the past.

"Who knows?" City Lord Ji Ze shook his head.

If you asked him, who would he ask?

"Junior Sister, this time is an opportunity for us." City Lord Ji Ze looked at Second Senior Sister Qin Lu with spirited eyes and said.

Lin Ming's words had given them an opportunity.

"I know." Second Senior Sister Qin Lu nodded.

She knew what City Lord Ji Ze meant.

Indeed, this was truly an opportunity; if they missed it, things would become troublesome later on.

She had the same thought as City Lord Ji Ze: they could not miss this opportunity.

"Junior Sister, how was that? Was your Senior Brother cool just now?" After walking out of the City Patrol Bureau, Lin Ming looked at his Junior Sister and said.

It was finally his turn to show off properly.

He had never had such an opportunity in the Sect.

Now that he had this opportunity before him, he would not let it go.

Su Lianxue looked at Lin Ming somewhat strangely. She didn't know why, but in her eyes, Lin Ming had appeared a bit childish just now.

In her view, some of Lin Ming's actions were purely unnecessary, wasting so much time—wasting her cultivation time.

"So, Senior Brother, was your goal just these two hundred thousand medium-grade origin stones?" Su Lianxue asked.

Two hundred thousand medium-grade origin stones—this must have been the reason Senior Brother did all that.

"Junior Sister, you are being superficial. Is your Senior Brother the kind of person who would do that?" Lin Ming asked in return.

These two hundred thousand medium-grade origin stones were merely incidental for Lin Ming.

"You are." Su Lianxue said with a serious face.

"Sigh, spend less time with Yu Yaoqin." Lin Ming sighed at this and said.

His originally somewhat aloof Junior Sister had now become like this. In Lin Ming's view, that girl Yu Yaoqin was primarily responsible.

"Senior Brother, everyone who sees the spoils gets a share," Su Lianxue said.

Two hundred thousand medium-grade origin stones was not a small amount for Su Lianxue right now, especially since she had just stepped into the cultivation world; origin stones were an indispensable resource.

Lin Ming being able to obtain these two hundred thousand medium-grade origin stones also had something to do with her.

She would not let all these origin stones fall into her Senior Brother's pocket just like that.
