After driving away the people who wanted to sow discord, Number One chuckled with a mixture of helplessness and disdain.
The lady, who came in carrying a teacup, smiled and shook her head upon seeing this. "Are you upset again?"
"They really are... I don't know whether to call them naive or stupid. Is this all the trick they could come up with? To sow discord?"
Number One was utterly speechless.
Having spent so many years navigating the political arena and witnessing countless people and events, he discovered that these people are truly regressing in their ways.
Do these people think that just because order has been destroyed and the environment is in chaos, they can become less intelligent?
If this continues, he worries that when these people are actually in danger, they might not even remember how to deal with it.
Why!
He picked up his teacup and sighed heavily.
"Out with the old, in with the new," the lady said softly, having roughly guessed what was going on even though she didn't know the whole story. "The more they jump around now, the harder they'll fall."
Lin Yuan is not someone who can be easily fooled.
Moreover, once he makes a move, he leaves no survivors.
These people who have offended Lin Yuan are practically offering themselves up for death.
"You're right, I really shouldn't waste my energy on those idiots."
Number One burst into laughter, suddenly enlightened.
Now, all we can hope is that these people will willingly run up to Lin Yuan and dance around, only to be dealt with by him in the end.
Then he won't be so upset anymore.
In such a chaotic environment and in such a crisis-ridden new world, instead of thinking about how to stabilize things and live a better life, these people are actually thinking about fighting for power and profit.
Human nature is sometimes insatiable, yet utterly foolish.
In the world of cultivation, Lin Yuan and his group were startled by the demonic energy not far away as soon as they appeared.
They've only been gone for a short time, how did this place become like this?
Just as everyone was filled with doubt and uncertainty, a group of people rushed towards them.
The leader, seeing Lin Yuan and his group appear out of nowhere, demanded sharply, "Who goes there?"
"Blue Star, Lin Yuan."
Lin Yuan stepped forward and spoke in a cold voice.
Upon hearing this, the voice, which had been wary, suddenly changed. The person hidden behind the thick fog waved his hand, and instantly appeared clearly in front of everyone.
He looked the man up and down, and then carefully stared at the strangely dressed people behind Lin Yuan before confirming, "I am Zhu Lian, the personal disciple of the Seventh Elder of the Ziguang Sect's Cangfeng Mountain. Greetings, True Lord."
True Lord?
Taken aback by this title, the people standing behind Lin Yuan were all somewhat confused.
Lin Yuan, on the other hand, remained quite calm.
His cultivation level has now reached the Nascent Soul stage, and according to the rules of the cultivation world, he is indeed worthy of being called a True Lord.
The rules here are very uniform: only those who enter the Foundation Establishment stage are officially recognized as cultivators, those in the Golden Core stage are True Persons, and those in the Nascent Soul stage are True Monarchs.
Based on Jiang Rushi's current cultivation level, she could indeed be worthy of the title "True Person".
However, he didn't intend to say anything on her behalf; such respect is something that must be earned through one's own efforts.
Anything you get by relying on others, no matter what it is, will always be lost faster.
Zhu Lian could discern Lin Yuan's cultivation level at a glance, so naturally he could also discern Jiang Rushi's.
The reason he didn't use a respectful title for her was mainly because his own cultivation level was the same as hers, so they were considered to be of the same generation.
"What's going on here?"
Lin Yuan turned his head to look at the thick fog and the unsettling demonic energy.
They've only been gone a short time, how come there's been such a big change?
"In response to True Lord, since you left, the sect leader and the major sects have sent people to clear away the demonic energy. Unexpectedly, the more they cleared away, the more there was. As the teleportation arrays appeared more and more frequently, cracks began to appear all over the continent. Taking advantage of these cracks, the demonic energy began to devour the entire continent with impunity."
