The red and white forces between the two of them slowly receded, as if the scene just now was just an illusion.

Lin Yan clearly saw that when the beautiful woman finished speaking, the inspectors behind her, the people in the prefecture, and even Qin Xiang and Xiao Ye looked at each other. Their eyes wandered back and forth between Liu Lanqing and the woman. It was obvious that they were extremely shocked that the two of them did not continue fighting.

At this moment, the other people from the Demon Suppression Division, including Fan Xiaopeng, Ning Xiaohui, Wu Qinglei, and the others, arrived one after another and gathered beside Liu Lanqing. “Issuer Liu! What’s wrong?”

Is Issuer Liu alright?”

“Hiss- Why are there so many people from the prefecture capital!”

“Eh? Isn’t that… Venerable Issuer Bai of the Black Tortoise Hall? Why is he here too!”

Fan Xiaopeng exclaimed. The few people from the Demon Suppression Division immediately looked up. Their gazes gathered behind the beautiful woman on one of the people from the prefecture capital.

That person was in his early forties and looked rather elegant. His thick beard was trimmed extremely finely. He was wearing a grayish-black high-collared cardigan and brown leather shoes.

Seeing that the few of them were looking at him, he raised his hand and waved at them. He revealed a helpless smile and walked out step by step.

His clothes were elegant and clearly not in the ancient style. However, his hair was tied up with a wooden hairpin, making him look cla.s.sical.

Behind him was a short-haired young man dressed similarly. He carried a black wooden box on his shoulder and walked all the way to Liu Lanqing.

Liu Lanqing had long seen them, but her attention had been on the beautiful woman. She clearly recognized this man. At this moment, she frowned slightly and said, “Old Bai, what’s going on?”

The elegant man surnamed Bai smiled helplessly. “Shall we go in and talk?”

Liu Lanqing pointed at the beautiful woman. “What about her?”

“Together.”

Liu Lanqing narrowed her eyes and carefully examined the beautiful woman. Then, she raised her hand and gestured for Fan Xiaopeng and the others to listen. “Settle down the new guests. Lin Yan, come in with me.”

After saying that, she did not even look at the beautiful woman and turned around to enter the Demon Suppression Division.

Lin Yan had no choice but to follow.

The elegant man surnamed Bai reached out his hand. “Teacher Ling, please.”

The beautiful woman nodded slightly and followed Liu Lanqing and Lin Yan.

The man surnamed Bai turned around and greeted the others in the prefecture capital behind him. “Please help yourselves!”

He entered the back room.

Liu Lanqing walked straight to the head of the table and sat down. Her slender jade legs were crossed and placed. She did not invite the beautiful woman to sit down and just looked at her coldly. “Ling Shuangxue, what are you doing here?”

“Let Venerable Issuer Bai tell you.”

Ling Shuangxue’s voice was neither light nor heavy. She did not stand on ceremony. She looked around, picked a chair at the side, and leisurely walked over to sit down. Her posture was dignified, like a young lady from a wealthy family, forming a sharp contrast with Liu Lanqing’s rough att.i.tude.

Liu Lanqing raised her eyebrows and pursed her lips. She said disdainfully, “What are you pretending for?”

Ling Shuangxue’s expression did not change as she said indifferently, “After all, I’m a teacher. I’m not like you, Ah Qing, who is exposed to the wind and sun. You don’t have to pay attention to your image.”

Crackle!

Lin Yan subconsciously took a step back. The wooden chair under Liu Lanqing’s b.u.t.t suddenly ignited with a faint flame!

Ling Shuangxue’s body also emitted a chill, and a cold frost spread from her seat.

“Why are you fighting again? Ah Qing, quickly put away the flames. Teacher Ling came from afar, and you’re welcoming her so warmly?”

The man surnamed Bai brought his subordinates in and shouted hurriedly.

Ling Shuangxue smiled lightly. “Venerable Issuer Bai, you don’t have to worry…

This little fire is only enough to light flowers, tables and chairs. It can’t hurt me.”

The flames suddenly increased by another level.

“Teacher Ling, stop joking. Am I worried about the fire hurting you? Aiyo, my grandaunts, we’re already so far away from the prefecture capital. Stop!”

Ling Shuangxue blinked and smiled faintly. Without saying anything, the coldness slowly dissipated.

Liu Lanqing also snorted coldly and retracted her strength.

Lin Yan touched his forehead. When the two of them released their strength, he clearly wasn’t the target, but he could feel an extremely dangerous aura.

This strength was really terrifying!

Liu Lanqing knocked on the table. “Old Bai, what happened? Why are there so many people?”

The man surnamed Bai muttered, “You’re still in such a hurry. I’m your uncle after all. I came all the way here and you didn’t even invite me to sit down or get me a gla.s.s of water…”

He found a seat opposite Ling Shuangxue and sat down. Then, he sighed slightly. “Ah Qing, good news or bad news, which do you want to hear first?’

“Old Bai, don’t be so pretentious. You know my temper!”

“Then I’ll tell you the bad news first.”

The man surnamed Bai smiled helplessly.

His name was Bai Ling, and he was the Venerable Issuer of the Demon Suppression Division’s Black Tortoise Hall. His status was actually a level higher than Liu Lanqing, who was an Order Issuer.

However, he had watched Liu Lanqing grow up. In the entire Demon Suppression Division, other than Hou Zun, Liu Lanqing was the closest to him. They could be considered siblings.

“Forget it, 1 won’t keep you in suspense.” Bai Ling’s expression slowly darkened. “Elder Kong, the Venerable Issuer of the Azure Dragon Hall, you haven’t seen him for a long time, right? Half a month ago, he died!”

Liu Lanqing’s pupils constricted. “He died? Half a month ago? Why didn’t you tell me about this in the last communication!”

“You’re short-tempered, and the implications behind this matter are complicated. In order to prevent you from making a wrong judgment, they let me tell you after I get here.”

A look of disbelief appeared on Liu Lanqing’s face. “Elder Kong is a Wondrous Realm expert who has comprehended the Wondrous True Force with the foundation of the Yellow Grade n.o.ble Realm!

“Moreover, he has rich combat experience. Even I don’t dare to say that I can defeat him! He actually died?”

Lin Yan, who was behind Liu Lanqing, was slightly stunned. This was the second time he had heard of the Wondrous Realm.

Last time, it was Qin Xiang who mentioned that the Heart Spirit was a power of a higher level than the Wondrous Realm.

This time, Liu Lanqing mentioned the Wondrous True Force again. It was obvious that the Wondrous Realm was a higher realm than the n.o.ble Realm.

But why did Liu Lanqing imply that her strength was not inferior to the Wondrous Realm?

“Who did it?”

Bai Ling shook his head. “Not humans. Elder Kong died in the ancient ruins that had just appeared in Fengyang City! At the same time, three teams of Demon Suppression Guards and three Order Issuers under Elder Kong died there.”

Liu Lanqing’s body trembled. “1 remember that the Azure Dragon Hall only has four teams of Demon Suppression Guards. Doesn’t this mean…”

“That’s right. The remaining team of Demon Suppression Guards from the Azure Dragon Hall has already been a.s.signed to the White Tiger Hall. The Azure Dragon Hall… is already gone.”

Liu Lanqing was stunned for a moment and could not say a word.

However, Bai Ling continued, “The Demon Suppression Division lacks the Azure Dragon Hall, which is equivalent to losing an arm. Therefore, Hou Zun said… that there’s no time for you to train anymore!

“He’ll immediately promote you to the Venerable Issuer of the Vermillion Bird Hall. Take advantage of this Dingdeng Genius Battle to complete the Vermillion Bird Hall as soon as possible to make up for the shortage of manpower after the destruction of the Azure Dragon Hall.”

Liu Lanqing’s wrist tightened slightly. To Lin Yan’s surprise, the hair on the back of her neck stood up. She was actually… nervous!

Liu Lanqing took a deep breath.

In the Demon Suppression Division, the White Tiger Hall was established the earliest. Then, the Azure Dragon Hall and the Black Tortoise Hall were established one after the other.

However, the Vermillion Bird Hall had never been formally established because they had never found a suitable candidate to be the head of the Vermillion Bird Hall.

It wasn’t until she grew up and successfully achieved the Jade Grade Force

Feature named Invasive Fire that Hou Zun had the idea to create the Vermillion

Bird Hall.

However, she was still young, so hers was actually the only Demon Suppression Guard team in the entire Vermillion Bird Hall. She was the only Order Issuer, so she was not worthy of the t.i.tle of Venerable Issuer.

Now…

She glanced behind Bai Ling at the black wooden box on the young man’s back.

Bai Ling waved his hand, and the young man brought the black wooden box over. “Hou Zun will naturally support your work. Take a look. With these, you should be able to gather a group of experts in a short period of time!”

The black wooden box was placed on the ground and opened with a flip of his palm.

Before Liu Lanqing could speak, she heard a slightly hurried gasp behind him.

She turned around. “Lin Yan?

Lin Yan’s pupils dilated, and his cheeks flushed uncontrollably as he stared straight at the box.

There were four compartments in the box. The smallest compartment was stacked with a stack of books. The second and third compartments were filled with precious treasures that were colorful and emitted different halos. As for the last compartment…

It was filled with a layer of Spirit Marrows!

At a glance, there were ungraded, first-grade, second-grade, and even third-grade Spirit Marrows. They were all piled up, and there were at least hundreds of them!

If he could get all of these Spirit Marrows…

“Lin Yan, if you continue looking, your eyes will pop out.” Liu Lanqing knocked on the table.

Lin Yan blinked and retracted his gaze as if nothing had happened. “I’m sorry,

Issuer Liu. I was dazzled when 1 first saw so many rare treasures.”

Liu Lanqing nodded and didn’t mind. On the other hand, Bai Ling and Ling Shuangxue looked at him with interest.

“Old Bai, I understand what Hou Zun means. What I don’t understand is…”

Liu Lanqing pointed at Ling Shuangxue, who had been silent at the side. She sneered and said, “What about her? She’s not from our Demon Suppression Division. Why didn’t she stay in Qianyuan Academy and come here to cause trouble for me?”

Before Bai Ling could speak, Ling Shuangxue smiled faintly. “On the contrary, I’m here because of what you did in Ding’an City!”

Lin Yan’s eyes widened slightly. Was it the incident from last time?

Ling Shuangxue said indifferently, “I heard that you broke an inspector’s leg due to a word of disagreement and burned all his hair and eyebrows?”

Liu Lanqing sneered. “So what if 1 did? What’s so serious about beating up a few inspectors who are deliberately causing trouble?”

Ling Shuangxue smiled faintly. “It was nothing in the past, but not every time. For example, this time.

“You were arrogant and despotic in Ding’an City and wantonly humiliated the inspectors, causing public anger and impeachment. It caused the various large factions in the prefecture capital to complain.

“In view of what you’ve done, the Prefecture Administration, the various factions, and Master Hou have jointly decided to invite Qianyuan Academy to preside over this Dingdeng Genius Battle and take over Ding’an City!”

She looked at Liu Lanqing, whose expression was getting uglier, and revealed a stunning smile. “In other words, you’ve been kicked out. Now, I’m the City Lord!”

“Old Bai, is what she said… true?”

Bai Ling shrugged and said helplessly, “Not only is it true, but Hou Zun also personally nodded in agreement. If you don’t believe me, send a letter later and ask.”

He looked at Liu Lanqing’s suppressed anger and smiled dryly. “Think on the bright side. At least for now, all the bad news has been said..”
