"Everyone, don't you know? A few days ago, when the new emperor ascended the throne! The entire capital was covered in brilliant light that stretched for millions of miles!”
"At that time, those envoys from the small countries were all scared silly! Hahaha…"
In a teahouse called Yixiang Pavilion.
The storyteller gently waved the fan in his hand as he recounted what he had heard from his friend.
The guests were obviously very supportive as they asked,
"What happened after that?"
" You don't know what happened after that. Aiyo, tens of thousands of people worshiped him, and auspicious signs descended from the heavens…"
The more the storyteller spoke, the more exaggerated he became. In the end, he almost described Lin Xiao as a god-like figure.
"Young Master, how do you feel after hearing this?”
He looked at the storyteller in front of him who was constantly describing how talented Emperor Xiao was and how handsome he was.
Qingfeng Li held back his laughter and said to Xiao Lin who was listening with great interest.
"Well said!"
Lin Xiao was extremely satisfied. You should be rewarded!"
Qingfeng Li was dumbfounded.
Why didn't he realize that His Majesty was so thick-skinned?
This was not inferior to those officials who had lived for dozens or even hundreds of years!
"What's wrong? Could it be that you think…there's something wrong with what he said?”
Lin Xiao looked over with a dangerous gaze.
"No, no!"
Qingfeng Li quickly took out a few spirit stones from his storage ring and shouted,""Look at the reward!"
Then, he threw the spirit stones over!
When the storyteller saw that it was a spirit stone, he immediately beamed with joy and hurriedly took it."Thank you! Thank you!"
Spiritual stones were an extremely precious cultivation resource.
For cultivators with lower strength, it was more precious.
The storyteller was a Qi-gathering cultivator.
To him, these few spirit stones could already be considered a huge sum of money!
Therefore, he was naturally overjoyed.
"If you want to thank someone, thank my young master!”
Qingfeng Li laughed and waved his hand.
As soon as he said that, everyone turned to look at the " Young Master " Qingfeng Li mentioned.
Those were spirit stones!
Who was so generous?
When they saw Lin Xiao's appearance, they could not help but be stunned.
Then, he couldn't help but praise in his heart.
What a handsome young master!
Judging from his temperament, he must not have been born in an ordinary family.
There was a high chance that he was born into a noble family!
"Sir, what do you want to hear? As long as I know, I'll tell you everything!”
The storyteller hurriedly said.
"Let's talk about the sacred land.”
Lin Xiao raised his hand and said indifferently.
He actually wanted to know what ordinary cultivators thought about the Holy Land.
However, almost as soon as he said this.
The originally lively environment suddenly became silent.
The expression of the storyteller changed drastically.
"Sir…why don't we change the topic?”
Lin Xiao didn't say anything and just looked at him quietly.
The storyteller felt his hair stand on end from being stared at. Then, he gritted his teeth as if he had made a decision."Everyone knows that the Holy Land is a high and mighty existence!”
"It's a place that countless cultivators dream of!”
"Because if we are lucky enough to enter…"
As the storyteller spoke, the tea guests no longer supported him as before and chose to remain silent.
The atmosphere became a little oppressive.
Qingfeng Li's face turned green,""Enough! Shut up!"
He was so angry that he stood up and said resentfully,"If that so-called Holy Land is really as good as you say, then why…"
The storyteller did not refute. Instead, he lowered his head in shame and did not say a word.
"Alright."
Xiao Lin stood up expressionlessly and patted Qingfeng Li's shoulder, saying,""Let's go!"
Emperor Xiao spoke. As a subject, no matter how angry he was, he could only suppress it for the time being. In the end, he only said one word,""Alright."
"Two masters, wait a moment!"
The storyteller suddenly spoke. Then, he walked over quickly and handed the spirit stones back to Qingfeng Li with a pained expression.
"You…"
Qingfeng Li opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.
The storyteller smiled bitterly and said,""This reward is very valuable. Although it makes your heart ache, if you just accept it like this, my heart…will feel even worse!”
After saying that, he turned around and left, afraid that he would regret it if he was a second late.
Qingfeng Li seemed to understand something and fell into silence.
His eyes revealed a hint of sorrow.
Even in the Li Fire Capital, beneath the feet of the Son of Heaven, they didn't dare to speak ill of the Holy Land…
When they walked out of the teahouse, they saw Lin Xiao acting as if nothing had happened.
Qingfeng Li was confused.
Logically speaking, the one who should be the most furious should be the Sovereign Lord.
However, Lin Xiao seemed to have guessed what he was thinking and said softly,""If the human race wants to stand up again, it won't be something that can be done overnight.”
"But that's good too. At least this young lord has discovered that not everyone…has a broken spine!”
"Their hatred hasn't disappeared, it's just buried in their hearts.”
At this point, Lin Xiao could no longer hide the faint smile on his face.
"And this is enough!"
"The Prodigy Tournament in half a month will be the beginning of everything!”
……
After experiencing such a thing just now, Lin Xiao was too lazy to continue shopping and wanted to go home directly.
"What's going on over there?"
At this moment, he suddenly noticed that not far away, a small group of people was gathered there. They were noisy and he did not know what they were doing.
"Let's go and take a look."
Since there was nothing else to do, Lin Xiao directly walked towards the crowd.
To prevent any accidents, Qingfeng Li followed closely behind.
"Kid, do you know who you offended?”
In the middle of the crowd was a small empty space.
At this moment, a middle-aged man in his thirties stood there. He looked fierce and was not to be trifled with.
He was staring fiercely at the young man who had been beaten to the ground.
The young man's clothes were ragged and tattered. He looked like a beggar.
However, at this moment, his body was covered in bruises.
Obviously, it was caused by the middle-aged man's fists and feet.
However, even so, the young man still pursed his lips tightly and protected the seven or eight-year-old girl under him.
"Ling 'er, be good. Don't cry. We won't embarrass the village, understand?”
Although the girl was covered in dirt and her clothes were a little tattered, it was obvious that she was a beauty.
However, her big watery eyes were filled with uneasiness.
