Although Qingyun Town was just an unremarkable town in the Heavenly Martial Continent, it had at least raised a hundred thousand people. It was considered the most powerful force within a radius of a hundred miles.
Usually, Lin Xun would just buy some food at the entrance of the town to fill his stomach, but today was completely different. Glancing at the dry food he had eaten before, Lin Xun walked straight into the town.
Speaking of which, in the past ten years, this was the first time Lin Xun had visited the town he lived in. In the past, Lin Xun would only go back and forth between the Lin family and the back mountain every day. Even if he was hungry, he would only buy some things at the town entrance.
It could be said that he almost never entered Qingyun Town. In Lin Xun's memory, he had only entered Qingyun Town two or three times since he was born. Even if he did enter, he would be in a hurry. He did not have the chance to look around because at that time, his heart was filled with the desire to become stronger.
In the town, there was an endless stream of pedestrians coming and going. However, more than 70% of them could only be considered ordinary people. They relied on the protection of Qingyun Town and lived nearby. They used their labor on Weibo to exchange for some money to live.
After all, no matter which world it was, ordinary people were the true foundation. Although life sounded quite difficult, it was much better than villages in the wild. There was no guarantee of safety in that kind of place.
However, one should not think that this mainland was a good place. There were no perfect laws on this mainland. In addition, the individual strength of humans was powerful. It could be said that most of the things that could restrain themselves were their conscience and morality.
Of course, there were also some experts who were in charge of an area. They had to abide by the laws set by this expert. Otherwise, they would definitely be hunted down. Those mountain villages in the wilderness did not have the strength to resist the danger at all. It was possible that they would all be wiped out if they were not pleasing to the eye. Therefore, the villagers living in Qingyun Town were quite lucky.
Other than mortals, most of the people on the street were itinerant cultivators. They always carried their weapons with them. They looked hostile and were alert to everything that happened around them. These people were usually from no sect and could only cultivate by luck. In terms of combat strength, they were quite low.
This was because they couldn't casually make a move in Qingyun Town. If it was outside the town, once there was any benefit, they would completely turn their backs on them. It could be said that they were willing to do anything for money.
Lin Xun didn't care about his surroundings at all. He completely ignored the gazes of the people around him and directly walked into the largest restaurant in Qingyun Town, the Falling Cloud Inn. The dishes here were rich and there was even fine wine. Of course, the premise was that you needed to have enough money.
As soon as he entered, Lin Xun couldn't help but frown because there was a burning gaze coming from around him. He even heard some people whispering in his ear,
"I didn't expect him to be a disciple of the Lin family. He should be quite wealthy. I wonder if he can do something.”
"Yeah, I heard that the three big families give their disciples a bottle of Body Refinement Pills every month. One bottle is equivalent to us risking our lives for a month outside.”
“……”
This made Lin Xun sigh. This group of itinerant cultivators was really afraid of poverty. They even dared to have designs on the members of the three great families.
However, it was precisely because rogue cultivators did not have any secret manuals or resources that they lived a precarious life. Therefore, no matter how much torture Lin Xun had suffered for so many years, he did not leave the Lin family because there was a shortcut for him to become stronger here.
"Waiter, give me two of your best dishes and a pot of sake.”
Lin Xun did not care about the whispers of these people. In any case, the other party did not provoke him, so he would not attack for no reason. Moreover, today was a good day, and he could not let this group of people dampen his mood.
"Yes, please sit." Being able to work as a shop assistant in Qingyun Town, he was naturally quite smart. He knew that he could not offend anyone who could come to this inn, so he was quite enthusiastic. He skillfully sent Lin Xun to a corner by the window on the second floor and then began to prepare the dishes.
From this angle, he could see Qingyun Town from the window, but it was completely different from the cliff at the back of the mountain. If the cliff was the peak and the pride of overlooking the small mountains, then what he saw at this moment was more of the common people on the road. If these people did not have the opportunity, they would only be able to do nothing for the rest of their lives. They might not even be able to leave Qingyun Town. It was quite sad.
Before Lin Xun could sigh about life, the dishes were already on the table. Two dishes, one soup, and a pot of sake. For a person, it was more than enough. Quietly savoring the dishes on the table, Lin Xun's tensed spirit for ten years actually relaxed a little.
"Hey, pretty boy, I've taken a fancy to this position. Hurry up and move away, or else you'll have a good time.”Suddenly, a burst of mockery broke Lin Xun's good mood, causing him to frown.
He immediately turned his head and saw an unfamiliar man standing not far away. His muscles were ferocious and his face was ferocious. The first impression that this appearance gave was that he was not to be trifled with. Most importantly, Lin Xun could not detect his cultivation realm at all. It was obvious that he was higher than him.
Lin Xun was sure that this was the first time he had seen the other party, but who was this person? Why did she provoke him for no reason?
Before Lin Xun could ask, the surrounding voices helped him clear his doubts.
"I didn't expect to meet the Fierce Tiger Fist Lu Jian today. His cultivation has already reached the tempered body sixth stage, and his Fierce Tiger Fist Technique is quite proficient. Moreover, he has a bad temper and is lawless.”
"That's right. Not only is the other party strong, but he also has good eyesight. He clearly remembers the people that the three great clans cannot afford to offend. Even if he were to rob them, he would only find some outer sect disciples.”
"I see." Lin Xun nodded his head. It was obvious that the other party was a rogue cultivator with a background. However, it was fine to rob others, but if he provoked him, he could not blame him. He immediately snorted coldly.
"Get lost!"
Lu Jian had always been arrogant. Moreover, in his impression, he didn't even know Lin Xun. It was obvious that he wasn't on his list, which meant that he could provoke him. If he had directly taken out the Body Tempering Pill, it would have been fine. However, he actually dared to say get lost. This couldn't help but touch Lu Jian's reverse scale.
He immediately clenched his fist, and the muscles on his right arm suddenly enlarged. He brought along a violent fist wind as he attacked Lin Xun. It was even accompanied by a faint tiger roar. This made Lin Xun secretly think that this was the Fierce Tiger Fist. It was really interesting.
However, the other party's action was clearly a little fatal. If he was hit like this, he would be severely injured even if he did not die.
This action caused Lin Xun's expression to turn cold. He had not expected the other party to actually dare to attack in such a public place. Therefore, he naturally had no scruples. The wooden sword was originally on the table. Everyone saw Lin Xun's hand on the hilt. Then, with a flash of sword light, he had already blocked the incoming fist.
A swordsman's attack was the highest among those of the same realm. Everyone present could clearly see that blood had appeared on Lu Jian's fist, and his face had even turned red. However, no matter how much strength he used, it was useless.
On the other hand, Lin Xun's sword not only blocked the other party's attack, but his expression did not change. Anyone with a discerning eye could see the difference between the two at a glance.
This scene caused everyone present to suck in a breath of cold air. One had to know that Lin Xun was only at the tempered body fourth layer, while Lu Jian was already at the tempered body sixth layer. There was a difference of two layers between the two of them, so one could imagine how terrifying it was. Immediately, the greedy eyes disappeared, and they were replaced by fear.
Because it happened in the inn, a plump fatty walked over in a short while. The other party's face was like Maitreya. He smiled and cupped his hands."I didn't expect this to happen today. This table is free. I hope little brother can forgive me.”
Then, he turned to Lu Jian and said in a cold voice,"Since you broke the rule of not fighting, then don't ever enter the Luo Yun Inn again.”
Lu Jian's face turned red and he even smiled awkwardly."Shopkeeper, I was just joking, right?”After saying that, he looked at Lin Xun with a threatening expression.
However, how could Lin Xun yield just like that? If not for the shopkeeper's timely appearance, both sides would have already begun a huge battle. He immediately watched coldly from the side.
Lin Xun's attitude made Lu Jian quite angry, but the shopkeeper was right there. There was no way to vent his anger. He stared at Lin Xun as if he wanted to kill him. After a long time, he left angrily.
Although his mood had been disturbed by a little thief, he was still hungry. Lin Xun did not go back immediately and continued to quietly enjoy the delicious food in front of him.
