Lin Yu sat cross-legged on the back of the Spirit Beast Sect's flying magic beast, the Swan Eagle. He looked at the white clouds that seemed to be moving slowly but were actually moving fast outside the protective shield. Two years ago, he left the Qu Mountain and entered Liuyun City. He experienced the ruins of the Kun Sect in the wild forest and finally settled down in Wuling City. His cultivation level had also increased from an Advanced Martial Apprentice to the current beginner Martial Arts Grandmaster.
Along the way, it was difficult for her to survive through life and death. Not only did she gain love, but she also rooted herself in this hot-blooded land. From then on, she would not be a rootless duckweed. Lin Yu sighed softly and calmed himself down to start cultivating.
There were countless cities in the vast Eastern Region, but the most famous ones were Willow City, Flame City, and Nine Cloud City. Many forces of all sizes gathered in these three cities, so it was most likely that something would happen in these three cities.
After flying for seven days, the swan eagle landed in Willow City. Wu Lan's letter did not mention the specific city in the eastern region, so Lin Yu could only look for Wu Lan based on his own speculation.?
As he walked on the streets of Liu City, Lin Yu could clearly feel the smell of gunpowder in the air.?The purpose of Lin Yu's trip was to contact the people that the Lin family had arranged to contact Bai Ping in Liu City. Although Bai Ping no longer needed to be contacted, he believed that they would help Lin Yu.
In an alley paved with bluestone, the flag of the Yu Family's wine shop fluttered in the wind, and the mellow fragrance of wine spread throughout the entire alley.
The Yu Family's winery had a long history in Liu City. It was famous for its mellow and fragrant red wine that did not go to the head. However, it had been passed down for a long time and did not expand its scale. It did not do any publicity and only provided it to regular customers. The wine that the Bai Residence drank was supplied by the Yu Family's winery, so it was very convenient to enter and exit the Bai Residence.
Butler Ouyang had contacted him. Furthermore, there was no risk in passing on the message. Of course, the reward was very generous, so he agreed.
Lin Yu pushed open the door of the wine shop. There was a simple decoration in the shop. There was a wooden counter with a row of wine vats behind the counter. A middle-aged man with a martial master cultivation base was sitting in front of the counter and counting on an abacus.
"Sir, who do you need?" Yu Shen asked out of habit when he saw someone coming in. When he raised his head and saw Lin Yu's expression, he knew that he was not the person who bought the wine, so he changed his question.
"Boss Yu, I'm from the Lin family of Wu Ling City in the Wu Province. Do you still remember me?”Lin Yu smiled.
Yu Shen was stunned. After all, the Lin family had already known that the Bai family had been exterminated. Why would someone still come to inquire about the news now? He looked at Lin Yu carefully as if he was confirming his identity and asked with some doubt,""You were sent by Butler Ouyang?"
"Boss Yu, don't worry. I'm the young master of the Lin Mansion. Did I come here for the Bai Mansion's matters? I'm not familiar with this place, so I thought of you.”Lin Yu explained with a smile.?
?" Young Master Lin, please come inside." Yu Shen was stunned. He invited Lin Yu to come inside and pushed open the door to let him in.
In the inner hall, there was a painting of a pine crane hanging on the snow-white wall. There was a mahogany counter, a few carved chairs, and an antique coffee table on the floor. It seemed that this was where Yu Shen usually met guests and talked about business.
"Young Master Lin, sit. I'll make a pot of tea and slowly answer you.”Yu Shen smiled at Lin Yu like a businessman.
Lin Yu sat by the coffee table and waited for Yu Shen to finish brewing tea before asking.
"Boss Yu, have there been any big movements in Liu City in the past few months?”Lin Yu said casually as he took a sip of tea.
Yu Shen sighed softly. He looked a little sad and angry as he slowly said,"Ever since the Bai family was exterminated, the whole of Liu City has never been peaceful. Whether it's the big or small families, some were destroyed by other powerful sects, some were annexed by other first-class forces, and some masked people came out of nowhere to rob everywhere. The whole Liu City is now in a state of panic, and many of my customers have also disappeared.”
"So rampant, is there no one to come out and control it?”Lin Yu asked because he wanted to know if Wu Lan and the others had been to Liu City before.
"The entire city was originally managed by a few aristocratic families and sects. Now that they are in chaos, who else can manage it?" Yu Shen smiled bitterly.”
"Then are there any external forces that come in to interfere and mediate, such as the four great clans?”Lin Yu was trying to find out more about Wu Lan.?
"No, if there were, it would definitely spread.”Yu Shen shook his head. Lin Yu agreed with him. If the Wu family had come, they would definitely have made some noise. He asked Yu Shenbai about the current situation in the Bai Residence with slight disappointment. "Boss Yu, what's the current situation in the Bai Residence?”
"The Bai Manor is still there. Now, the few Furen of the Bai family who are wandering outside have temporarily sent people to watch over it. However, no one dares to stay in it for fear that the Blaze Sect will send people again.”Yu Shen knew everything about the Bai residence, even the women outside Bai Ren.
"Boss Yu, thank you for your information. I understand.”Lin Yu cupped his hands at Yu Shen. Since Wu Lan wasn't coming to Willow City, he was prepared to go to Blazing Flame City or Jiuxiao City to ask around.
Young Master Lin, you're too polite." Yu Shen hurriedly returned the greeting.
After leaving the Yu Family's winery, Lin Yu did not know where to go. He felt that there was a mastermind behind the chaos. Since that was the case, he would go to Flame City to take a look. The Blaze Sect must have a backer supporting him since they dared to be so arrogant. He might even meet Wu Lan.
Liu City, Flame City, and Nine Cloud City formed a triangle in the Eastern Region. Flame City was located in the easternmost part of the Eastern Region and was very close to Lin Yu's previous sect, the Xuantian Sect. Lin Yu did not know if the Xuantian Sect was related to the force that destroyed the Xuantian Sect. The enemy who had stepped into the air had also used a fire-type martial technique. If they were the same group, they would have an irreconcilable hatred for Lin Yu and Bai Ping.
At the city gate, Lin Yu looked at the tall city wall that was made entirely of flaming rocks. From afar, it looked like a flaming mountain that had fallen into the earth. The air was filled with rich fire spiritual energy, which was a very shocking sight. There was no one guarding the city gate or collecting fees. Only the martial artists were rushing out of the city.?
The commoners on the streets were also sparse. The usually popular shops were now empty, and the shop owners yawned in boredom. Compared to Willow City, Flame City gave off a lifeless feeling.
Lin Yu desperately needed someone to tell him what was going on, so he chose a restaurant that seemed to be of a higher class.?
"Guest, please come in." The waiter, who was originally in low spirits, came up to him with a smile when he saw Lin Yu.?
Lin Yu scanned the hall and saw that there were only a few guests. There wasn't even a single martial artist, so he was a little disappointed. He casually found a seat by the window and sat down.
"Give me a light meal and a pot of Nu 'er Hong.”Lin Yu was not in the mood either. It had been almost two months since he left Wuling City, but he had not heard from Wu Lan at all. He wondered how she was doing.?
"Alright." The waiter waved his towel and went to prepare the food. He had wanted to find out what had happened in the city, but the hall was silent. The few people in the hall were also eating and had no desire to talk.
"Sir, this is the specialty dish of our store, Blazing Ice Crystal. You will definitely like it when you eat it.”The waiter served the dishes and introduced one of the unique dishes.
Lin Yu sized up the Flaming Ice Crystal. There were about ten pieces of transparent ingredients that looked like vegetables, meat, and meat wrapped in ice on a white porcelain plate. They were still steaming. He picked up a piece and placed it in his mouth. As expected, it was ice-cold when he bit into it. The hot juice filled his mouth and it was ice-cold. It was indeed as the waiter had said.
"Not bad." Lin Yu could not help but praise.?
Hearing Lin Yu's praise, the waiter immediately beamed with joy and started chatting.
"Sir, I can tell that you are from another city. This Blazing Flame Ice Crystal is a famous dish in our Blazing Flame City.”
"Oh, did something happen recently? There are so few people eating.”Lin Yu pricked up his ears and waited for the waiter's reply. Although a person like the waiter could not possibly know any secret, he was still aware of the major events that happened in the city.
Sigh!
The waiter sighed and looked distressed." If this goes on, the restaurant won't be able to continue operating.”
"What do you mean?" Lin Yu asked.
Only then did the waiter speak," The originally peaceful Flame City has gone crazy recently. First, the Blaze Sect caused trouble everywhere. Then, other factions started to fight, and even the Green Mountain Sect that manages Flame City joined in.
If they want to fight, then so be it. But they also want to implicate us commoners. If we're not careful, we'll be caught in the melee and die. If we eat in a restaurant, we might encounter a fight and the restaurant might collapse. Countless customers will die. There are many such situations. Who dares to wander outside? They can only hide at home and hug their wives.”After saying that, he looked angry and helpless.
"Then have you invited some powerful forces to come out and mediate, such as the four great families?”Lin Yu asked the question he was most concerned about.
The waiter thought for a moment and said uncertainly,""Some time ago, I heard that the Green Mountain Sect invited the Wu family of the four great families to mediate, but I didn't hear about it later. I don't know if they sent anyone, but I don't think the Wu family came.”
Lin Yu was excited. He finally had a lead. Wu Lan and the others had indeed met with an accident in Flame City. However, he pretended to be unconcerned and asked,"Then what happened today? I saw many martial artists rushing out of the city.”
"It's all because of that damned Blaze Sect. We don't know which faction they're fighting outside the city. Fortunately, it's outside the city. Otherwise, how many people would be in trouble?”After the waiter finished speaking, he felt that his tone was not right. He quickly looked around and fortunately, no one was paying attention to what they were talking about. He then hushed his tone and said to Lin Yu,""Please enjoy." Then, he left in a hurry.
Lin Yu also ended the conversation in a hurry. He left the taels of silver behind and rushed out of the city. He was afraid that Wu Lan and the others would be the ones fighting the Blaze Sect.?
