"What?"
"I don't quite understand these so-called land gods and false gods."
"My God, I've really seen something new today. Not only have evil spirits come out, but even our local earth god from Tongqiao has appeared."
"I thought Master Lin spoke with great conviction, even swearing to the heavens. Does that make him seem more credible? But if he's telling the truth, then the Qilin God is a fake, isn't it?"
The people in the open space looked at each other, and none of them immediately took sides.
They were racking their brains trying to figure out what was going on, and just wanted to see how things would develop.
The Qilin Divine Envoy on the stage was truly drenched in sweat this time. What was going on?
How could a real deity appear in a dream?!
Knowing that the Qilin God was fake, the Qilin God Envoy had always been fearless, but when he suddenly heard what Master Lin said, he was truly startled.
Won't he be punished by the gods for doing this?
Seeing his timid and hesitant demeanor, Zhou, the richest man in the audience, rolled his eyes in disdain once again.
He knew all of his master's plans for Tongqiao, so his first thought wasn't that a miracle had happened, but that someone else had the same idea as his master and wanted to climb the ladder by stepping on their achievements.
Thinking of this, a hint of murderous intent flashed in Zhou Shoufu's eyes as he looked at Lin Sanye.
It's unbelievable! Lin Laosan has kept his true identity hidden all these years. I only found out today that Lin Laosan has other masters behind him.
Zhou, the richest man, felt as if he had been bitten hard by his own dog, which made him feel disgusted and uncomfortable.
"Lin Laosan, what nonsense are you spouting? Just based on that small statue in your hand, you dare to spout such arrogant words and slander the Qilin God? You don't really think we believers are so easily fooled, do you?"
Looking at Zhou Shoufu who had stood up, Third Master Lin snorted coldly. These people were indeed in cahoots, just as the local deity had said.
The thought of his family being harmed by that false god caused Lin Sanye's fighting power to surge.
“Zhou Dabing, you’re no better. You’ve colluded with outsiders to harm the people of your own hometown. You deserve to be childless and have no descendants.”
You probably don't know this, but your little grandson was brought back from the ghost market by someone sent by your daughter-in-law, because your real grandson died shortly after birth!
And your concubine isn't carrying your child either; I haven't told you this all this to save face for you.
Zhou, the richest man in China, hates it when people call him by his name. He used to be called Zhou Dabing (Big Pancake Zhou), but after he became rich, he wanted to change his name. However, his clan rules were strict and did not allow him to change his name.
He paid a heavy price to barely manage to change one word.
Although he changed his name, he still hated it when people knew it.
Therefore, upon hearing Lin Laosan call out this name, Zhou Dabing called to the guards not far away, preparing to have them teach Lin Laosan a lesson.
But before he could give the order, he heard the news that shattered his world.
That clever and bright grandson wasn't actually a member of the Zhou family.
The fact that his concubine, who was just diagnosed with pregnancy, proved that his still-active concubine was not carrying the child of his Zhou family.
Zhou, the richest man, felt his head buzzing. He thought everyone around him was talking about him. In a fit of anger, he fainted.
"Master!"
"Zhou, the richest man! Zhou, the richest man!"
"Hurry and fetch a doctor!"
The Qilin Divine Envoy was quite anxious. He hadn't expected that Zhou, the richest man who worked so well with him, would be so easily angered by Lin Sanye's few words that he fainted. He was at a loss for what to do.
The Qilin envoy on the stage frantically winked at the people behind him, trying to get them to return to the temple to get reinforcements and have that person arrest Lin Laosan first.
But Master Lin became more and more courageous in battle, and laughed loudly at the people: "Did you see that Zhou, the richest man, has given away half of his fortune in order to get the blessing of the Qilin God?"
The Qilin God didn't even bestow upon him a child carrying his bloodline; instead, he made him raise someone else's child. What use is such a deity? Do you also want to raise other people's children?
Master Lin's words were undeniably scathing, and the people exchanged bewildered glances, their hearts slightly tipping in their favor.
Meanwhile, the wealthy people sitting in the chairs were even more uneasy. If Zhou Dabing, the richest man in the county, was like this, could it be that they themselves were also raising someone else's child?
Countless people thought this way, and even the way they looked at the Qilin Divine Envoy on the stage was no longer as respectful as before.
Because the lantern festival was not far from the Qilin Temple, reinforcements arrived quickly.
"Those who offend the Qilin God shall be killed!"
The young man in black, walking at the head of the group, said these words expressionlessly when he saw Master Lin and Xu Jinhuan on the stage.
"Yes, sir."
As soon as he finished speaking, the guards behind him, dressed in the same tight-fitting clothes, echoed loudly in unison.
Seeing that the people around him were startled, the Qilin Divine Envoy immediately smiled and stepped down from the stage, addressing the crowd.
"Everyone, do not be afraid. This is a protector personally appointed by the Qilin God. The guards behind him are all the Qilin God's guards, just to prevent something like what happened today from happening."
Although everyone had heard his explanation, they still dared not let their guard down, fearing that they might be stabbed to death by the murderous Qilin Guardian.
The Qilin Divine Envoy was quite satisfied with the deterrent effect these people brought, and he respectfully spoke to the Dharma Protector.
"Guardian, it was these two who ruined today's blessing. Please lend me a hand."
The Qilin Protector nodded arrogantly and waved his hand at his subordinates, saying, "Clean it up."
He had just heard the retelling from those present and thought the same as Zhou, the richest man in the country. They both believed that someone was trying to cause trouble using the same method, and therefore, they would absolutely not give these people a chance to live.
As for the frightened civilians, they were not even within his consideration.
Perhaps a certain degree of military deterrence would be more conducive to managing the people.
The moment the Qilin Protector gave the order, the guards rushed towards Master Lin.
Unexpectedly, Master Lin was not afraid at all. He smiled and looked at the long sword and saber that were slashing at him, and chuckled.
“I’ve already told you all, what I hold in my hand is the true god. These false gods are just ignorant; they have no idea how powerful the true god is.”
The onlookers looked on with puzzlement, while Lin Sanye, who was not making any move to hide, muttered under his breath.
"Is this Third Master Lin scared out of his wits? Why doesn't he know how to dodge?"
"Yes, I just glanced at them, and they were all genuine, shiny weapons. They wouldn't even need a few cuts to kill someone."
"Oh dear, I can't bear to watch this bloody scene. I'll close my eyes first. Let me know when it's over."
Just as everyone was talking, the long knife had already reached Lin Sanye's front.
But……
