NOVPUBChapter 907: Chapter 483: Sensational_2 Chapter 907: Chapter 483: Sensational_2 Seeing the newcomer, the cultivator in charge of the inspection didn’t lift his head and asked routinely,
“Name of the comer? From which power do you hail?”
Lin Tianming’s expression remained unchanged, and he stood silently in place.
Seeing that there was no response, the inspecting cultivator then realized what was happening.
The Ninth Layer of Qi Refining cultivator lifted his head, his face showing a trace of anger.
It was known that now that the crisis of the Zhenyang Sect was resolved and the victorious troops were surrounding and suppressing the remnants of the Golden Sword Sect, their momentum was at its peak.
Even years ago, disciples under the Zhenyang Sect were very proud, especially those on external missions for the sect.
And this Qi Refining cultivator was just like that, having always been complimented and admired by fellow cultivators of the same rank, and even when encountering some Foundation Establishment cultivators, they would also have to give some face.
...
Now, with the fall of the Golden Sword Sect, the Zhenyang Sect’s reputation was greater than before, and its disciples had become even more arrogant.
Under these circumstances, the cultivator was just about to lash out and curse when the words he was about to blurt out were abruptly swallowed back.
At the same time, his complexion alternated between green and white, as if he had seen something unimaginable.
Having barely calmed down, the cultivator hurriedly paid his respects, stuttering, “Greetings… Greetings to Elder Lin!”
Hearing what the Zhenyang Sect disciple in charge of the inspection said and seeing his panicked expression, many cultivators were puzzled.
After all, in the past six months, disciples of the Zhenyang Sect had been both high-profile and proud, and even Qi Refining disciples were not overly enthusiastic when they encountered Foundation Establishment Loose Cultivators.
But now, they were extremely deferential to a single cultivator, and their tone and demeanor seemed anxious and fearful.
Such an occurrence had been very rare recently.
Consequently, many cultivators turned their gaze curiously towards Lin Tianming, wanting to see who had arrived that made the Zhenyang Sect disciple so frightened.
Soon enough, many cultivators recognized Lin Tianming and identified his status.
“It’s Elder Lin!”
“It’s actually Elder Lin! He has actually come to Qianchuan Market!”
At that moment, a large number of cultivators became excited, as if they were seeing some incredible figure.
Following, a large number of cultivators bowed their hands in respect, with an extremely reverent tone and attitude.
Not only that, his appearance immediately caused quite a stir.
In just a short time, many cultivators who had left the city rapidly returned upon hearing the commotion from behind.
Remembering the name, they began, just like the cultivator at the entrance, to pay respects to Lin Tianming.
Lin Tianming’s expression remained unchanged in the face of the inspecting cultivator’s words, showing no signs of pleasure or anger.
As a large number of cultivators paid their respects, Lin Tianming did not pay too much attention, simply gesturing with his hand for them not to be overly courteous.
Afterward, he directly passed by the inspecting cultivator and disappeared from everyone’s sight.
It was only after Lin Tianming had been gone a while that the cultivator in charge of the inspection’s complexion eased, and he let out a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his heart.
Thinking back on his actions just now, he couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat.
Fortunately, Lin Tianming was approachable and did not take offense to his arrogance.
Otherwise, if it had been some other hot-tempered Golden Core cultivator, it could well have made him suffer.
If really unlucky, being killed on the spot was not an impossibility.
Understanding this, the Zhenyang Sect cultivator quickly sent a message to the Market City Supervisor, reporting Lin Tianming’s arrival in Qianchuan Market.
After all, the Lin Family was now incomparable to its former self, the powerful lineup of four Golden Core cultivators nearly being on par with a force like the Zhenyang Sect.
In addition, Lin Tianming had been as resplendent as the midday sun in the Wei Kingdom’s Cultivation World these past few years.
Combined with his terrifying battle record on the battlefield, many cultivators held him in very high esteem.
With such a fearsome presence now in Qianchuan Market, it was necessary to report to the higher-ups promptly, to send someone to pay their respects to avoid neglecting such a power.
Such occurrences were actually not uncommon in the Cultivation World.
After all, the identity of Golden Core cultivators was such that wherever they went, they were always treated as honored guests.
“`
Although Lin Tianming had often appeared in Qianchuan Market even before his Golden Core had formed,
the status between a Foundation Establishment Cultivator and a Golden Core Cultivator was worlds apart.
Furthermore, considering the Lin Family’s formidable strength and Lin Tianming’s fearsome reputation,
even the Zhenyang Sect had to handle matters cautiously to avoid offending them.
Thus, the Zhenyang Sect Disciples stationed in Qianchuan Market felt both anxious and excited at the prospect.
Anxious for fear of being less than perfect hosts, yet excited at the possibility of witnessing Lin Tianming’s elegance in person.
At this moment, Lin Tianming was unaware of these sentiments.
As he entered the interior of the market, he did not dally and headed straight for the Lin Family’s Cave Mansion Courtyard.
In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, he had entered the Cave Mansion Courtyard.
Upon receiving news of his return, Lin Xingli, accompanied by a few Lin Family Members, waited for his arrival.
Seeing Lin Xingli without the presence of Lin Tianyue and Lin Tianhong, Lin Tianming was somewhat puzzled.
However, he first greeted the members of his clan and then asked, “Uncle, isn’t my father at the market?”
Hearing the question, Lin Xingli chuckled and began to explain.
“Following the instructions of your Third Grandfather, your father is leading a team to the Golden Sword Sect’s domain to coordinate with them in eliminating the remnants of the Golden Sword Sect.”
“Tianhong and Tianyue are also in the team, and they set out more than a month ago!”
Upon hearing this, Lin Tianming nodded, thinking that Third Grandfather had moved quickly; he must have arranged this immediately upon returning to the family.
With more than a month’s time and their speed of travel, they must have already reached the Golden Sword Mountain’s domain and joined the siege.
But this was all within the plan, so it didn’t surprise him.
Given Lin Xingrong’s cultivation power, he stood among the top within the Foundation Establishment Cultivator ranks of the clan, and with his rich experience in handling affairs, it wasn’t strange for him to lead the team.
It was fortunate that the disciples of the now-fallen Golden Sword Sect found themselves in a desperate situation, like a wall collapsing and being pushed by all.
In such a difficult situation, with Myriad Medicine Valley and Zhenyang Sect’s disciples as the main force, the Lin Family members participating in the siege were unlikely to face significant danger.
Such an opportunity was also a chance for the clan members to broaden their horizons, meet disciples of other forces, and gain experience—a multitude of benefits.
Thinking this, Lin Tianming smiled faintly, feeling less worried.
Then, he chatted casually with Lin Xingli and others, inquiring about the family and the situation in Qianchuan Market.
According to Lin Xingli, Qianchuan Market and Luoyun Mountain had been quite peaceful over the past two years, experiencing almost no disturbances.
The Lin Family continued as usual, and the Huangyang Kingdom had made no moves, apparently choosing not to interfere in the affairs of Wei Kingdom’s Cultivation World.
However, in the last half a year, Qianchuan Market had become very lively.
The reason for this was twofold: firstly, cultivators who had originally left for fear of the great war were returning to the market upon seeing the Golden Sword Sect’s fall.
Secondly, it was because of the explosive news from the battle at Myriad Medicine Valley.
When the news of Han Hu and others fleeing in disarray reached the market, detailing severe losses for the Golden Sword Sect and the Blood Red Alliance, the entire Qianchuan Market was abuzz.
Before things quieted down, news of the Golden Sword Sect’s great battle reached them, with even powerhouses like Han Hu and Zhao Hongsheng falling.
This even more sensational news made the already lively Qianchuan Market buzz with activity in a very short time.
Furthermore, Lin Tianming’s consecutive slaying of Golden Core Cultivators, including several Mid Stage Golden Core strongmen, gave him a fierce reputation that shocked many cultivators.
Even the Lin Family Members were ecstatic upon receiving this news.
Following this, the Lin Family Members kept busy receiving guests for half a year, with an endless stream of visiting cultivators, including Zhenyang Sect Executive Officers and figures from various major forces, all eager to make connections with the Lin Family.
As a result, both Lin Xingli and Lin Xingrong dared not offend anyone, keeping them frantically occupied.
With Lin Xingrong away, Lin Xingli found himself even busier, with no time to manage even the Luoyun Pavilion.
Fortunately, after some time, the fervor slowly subsided, and everything returned to calm.
Knowing this, Lin Tianming smiled faintly again. After half an hour’s casual chat with Lin Xingli and others, and giving some instructions, he then headed back to the practice room.
