23: Chapter 23 My son became the village chief the moment he was born.

Wild Wolf slumped on the ground, his eyes glazed over.

He hadn't yet recovered from that server-wide announcement when the baby boy in Lin Zhe's arms slowly opened his eyes.

Those eyes didn't look at all like those of a newborn.

Clear, calm, and carrying an innate sense of majesty.

The players around them, who had been frantically spamming the world channel, suddenly quieted down.

Everyone was staring at the child in Lin Zhe's arms.

A small robe with golden dragon patterns, a faint golden light mark on his forehead, and wisps of golden Power of Rules circulating around him.

He was clearly just a nursing baby.

Yet the moment he appeared, the barrier of the Power of Rules over the entire Luofeng Village hillside became more stable.

The next second, Lin Chen opened his mouth.

A milky, soft voice, not very loud.

Yet it was clearly transmitted into everyone's ears.

"Revoking all entry permissions for the Wild Wolf Gang to Luofeng Village, effective permanently."

As the words fell.

Hum—

A more solid golden ripple suddenly rippled out from Lin Chen as the center!

A crimson notification instantly popped up before Wild Wolf's eyes.

[Warning: You have been permanently blacklisted by the Archon of Luofeng Village, Lin Chen.]

[Penalty: Permanently prohibited from entering the area of Luofeng Village.]

[Penalty: Teleportation array usage rights for Luofeng Village revoked.]

[Penalty takes effect immediately.]

"No!"

Wild Wolf's face turned deathly pale. He had just roared out a single word when golden light flashed beneath his feet, and his entire body was engulfed by the Power of Rules.

Swish!

He vanished from the spot on the spot.

Not just him.

The forty Wild Wolf Gang members on the hillside who were still wailing with low health didn't even have time to finish their screams before they were enveloped by clusters of golden light.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

In the blink of an eye, they were all gone!

At the same time, a chorus of terrified screams rang out from the direction of the Luofeng Village resurrection point.

Those sixty Wild Wolf Gang members who had just respawned had only taken one step out of the resurrection point when the same blacklist notification popped up before their eyes.

"What's going on?"

"I've been banned!"

"The village won't let me stay!"

"The teleportation array has turned grey too!"

The next second, golden light exploded beneath their feet simultaneously.

A large group of newly respawned Wild Wolf Gang players were forcibly ejected by the rules like trash and thrown directly outside Luofeng Village.

Some fell into grass pits.

Some slammed into the side of the dirt road.

Others rolled over a dozen times, even cracking their heads.

Most despairingly, when they looked back, the pale golden boundary of the Power of Rules at the village entrance had already been erected.

They couldn't get in.

Completely unable to enter.

They couldn't even use the teleportation array in the village.

With this, the Wild Wolf Gang had been uprooted.

Their territory, supplies, monster grinding spots, and teleportation points in Luofeng Village were all gone.

On the hillside, after a brief silence, a thunderous cheer erupted!

"Well banned!"

"Hahaha! Wild Wolf Gang, get out of Luofeng Village!"

"Permanently blacklisted! This is what you call satisfying!"

"That's what you get for stealing mobs, blocking the gate, and collecting protection fees!"

Several solo players who had been bullied the worst by the Wild Wolf Gang jumped up in excitement.

"I've been putting up with them for a long time!"

"Starting today, Luofeng Village is peaceful!"

"Big Shot Lin is awesome! Little Archon is awesome!"

The world channel went completely crazy too.

[Banning a guild the moment he's born?]

[An Epic-grade NPC becomes the Village Chief the moment he lands?]

[The entire Wild Wolf Gang has been kicked out of Luofeng Village!]

[They couldn't even stay at the resurrection point and were directly ejected outside the village!]

[Is that NPC really not a BOSS daddy?]

[Not like, he is!]

Xing Jianwan stood to the side, completely stunned for a moment.

She looked at Lin Chen in Lin Zhe's arms, and her eyes softened instantly.

Just a moment ago, he was the Epic-grade Archon in the server-wide announcement.

Now, after the little guy finished banning the Wild Wolf Gang, he blinked his eyes and actually reached out his little hand, gently grabbing the lapel on Lin Zhe's chest.

The contrast between his milky, fierce majesty and this action was shockingly huge.

Xing Jianwan felt as if her heart had been struck.

She subconsciously took a step forward, her voice softening.

"I... may I hold him?"

The surrounding players all widened their eyes upon hearing this.

The server's number one goddess actually wanted to voluntarily hold an NPC's son?

Lin Zhe looked down at Lin Chen.

The little guy raised his head and looked at Xing Jianwan; not only did he not reject her, he actually reached out his hands toward her.

Lin Zhe handed Lin Chen over directly.

Xing Jianwan's movements suddenly became extremely careful; she even put her staff aside before gently taking Lin Chen into her arms.

"Good boy..."

She coaxed him in a low voice, her eyes incredibly soft.

Lin Chen nestled in her arms, quiet and still, his little hand resting on her sleeve.

The surrounding players' jaws nearly dropped.

"Did I see that right?"

"Xing Jianwan is coaxing a baby?"

"And the one she's coaxing is Big Shot Lin's son?"

"This scene is just too absurd!"

Lin Zhe ignored those shocked gazes and directly pulled up the system panel.

[Eldest Son: Lin Chen]

[Grade: Epic-grade NPC]

[Identity: Archon of Luofeng Village]

[Control Permissions: Regional Access, Regional Management, Basic Rule Scheduling]

Immediately after, new notifications popped up in succession.

[Ding! Eldest son successfully born.]

[Host permanent permission unlocked: Player Muting]

[Host permanent permission unlocked: Player Expulsion]

[Host permanent permission unlocked: View Player Inventory]

[Power of Rules increased]

Lin Zhe scanned it, and the new data had already refreshed.

The Power of Rules had surged significantly.

Not only that, as Lin Chen officially took power, the underlying rules of Luofeng Village became clearer to him.

Who could enter, who should get out, what someone was hiding on them.

Now, it was all within a single thought.

Lin Zhe looked up, toward the direction outside the village.

Over there, the group of Wild Wolf Gang members were still outside the boundary of the Power of Rules, cursing wildly, beating against it, and trying to charge in.

But every time they got close, they were repelled by the pale golden light screen, looking as pathetic as a pack of yapping wild dogs.

Lin Zhe's expression was calm.

From today on, Luofeng Village was no longer a place where they could run wild.

Xing Jianwan held Lin Chen, looked up at Lin Zhe, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly.

"Your son looks more like someone in charge than everyone in the Wild Wolf Gang combined."
