The next day.

Four batches of people from the outer cities had already arrived at Ding’an City.

In the living room of the Demon Suppression Division.

“Everyone, i hope the journey didn’t wear you out. I’m Liu Lanqing. I’m sure all of you have heard of my name.”

Liu Lanqing tapped her fingers on the edge of the table, crossed her legs, and looked at the six people below him with interest.

Behind her, Lin Yan, Qin Xiang, Xiao Ye, Fan Xiaopeng, and another patrol team captain, Zheng Luanying, stood solemnly.

At the guest seats, there were three chairs on the left and right. There were six people with different expressions, both men and women.

Some of them looked old, and some looked similar to Liu Lanqing.

The clothes they wore were of different styles. It was not the difference of colors and patterns, but the style of clothes themselves. It was as if they came from completely different eras and customs. It was said that they wore the clothes of their original cities.

However, they all emitted a terrifying aura. They were clearly people on the same level as Wu Qinglei or even stronger.

However, in front of Liu Lanqing, they all chose to remain silent.

Liu Lanqing was very satisfied with their sensible attitude and revealed a charming smile. “Very good, everyone is smart. Unlike that fool from Heavenly Watch House this morning, who actually dared to mention beauties and privileges to me?

“Hehe, you’ve been underwater for too long. Has water entered your brain? Do you think you’re out to be an emperor?

“When you work, you have to have the awareness to work!

“I’ll say this first. Ding’an City is indeed a lower city, but with me, Liu Lanqing, here, if you’re a tiger, lie down. If you’re a dragon, coil up for me. Follow the rules. Naturally, it’s good for you, me, and everyone. If you don’t follow the rules…

“The guy from the Heavenly Watch House will be your example!”

The six of them could not help but recall the tragic state of the Noble Realm martial master from the Heavenly Watch House. It was said that he could not get out of bed for half a month…

Their faces turned cold as they cupped their hands and said, “Lord Liu is right. We naturally abide by the rules.”

Liu Lanqing raised her jade-like hand and gestured for them to look at the five people behind her. “These five are the captains of Ding’an City’s Patrol Camp.

“From now on, they will maintain the order in the inner city.

“They’re young and not strong enough. They still need the cooperation of the seniors of the Noble Realm martial masters.”

Did this mean that they were also under the jurisdiction of these five young people?

The six of them had ugly expressions.

You, Liu Lanqing, are strong and have a deep background. It’s fine if you suppress us, but now, you’ve pushed out a few subordinates and you want them to ride above us?

One of them said coldly, “Lord Liu, the most powerful genius seeds in the entire Qianyuan Prefecture are gathered in Ding’an City. Can you control them with the five children behind you?”

“That’s right. In the end, strength speaks for itself. Us old fellows naturally follow the rules. However, these genius seeds we brought are all at the age of vigor. Can these young people suppress the scene?”

“If there’s a conflict at that time and they’re beaten down, it will be your face that’s ruined, Lord Liu.”

“That’s right. Why don’t we do what we did in the prefecture capital? We’ll each take care of our own matters. Otherwise, we’ll have to clean up the messes when the time comes!”

“You guys are looking down on my people.” After hearing them finish, Liu

Lanqing slowly said, “Hehe, Qin Xiang, Xiao Ye, come to the front.”

The two of them went forward as instructed.

“You can try if they’re strong enough.”

Liu Lanqing was very confident. The six of them naturally knew that these two were definitely not weak.

However, some people did not believe it. The cold-faced woman in the second place on the right snorted coldly and widened her eyes slightly. Power immediately seeped out of her body, and an extremely heavy pressure instantly pressed down on Qin Xiang and Xiao Ye’s shoulders.

Her name was Tong Baiwei, and her Force Feature was called Thousand Mountain Fading. Among the Yellow Grade Force Features, it was quite precious.

Its characteristic was that the force carried a heavy weight.

She was only casually using it now, but it was already a huge force. If an ordinary Tough Realm cultivator was pressed by her like this, those with inferior strength would directly be pressed to the ground.

However, Qin Xiang and Xiao Ye’s expressions froze slightly. In the next moment, an incomparably sharp aura rose from their bodies, as if a sword had been unsheathed. A cold light appeared and forcefully split this heavy aura!

Tong Baiwei’s expression changed slightly and she instantly became serious. “Divine Weapon Valley!”

Such a sharp saber aura was clearly the ultimate technique of the Divine Weapon Valley!

Liu Lanqing was calm. “How is it? Is this strength enough?”

“There’s naturally no doubt about the strength of the geniuses of Divine

Weapon Valley…”

Tong Baiwei’s eyes flashed slightly as she glanced at the three people behind Liu Lanqing.

Since Liu Lanqing only pushed Qin Xiang and Xiao Ye out, it meant that the remaining three people were definitely not strong enough!

As a woman, she was already jealous of Liu Lanqing’s high and mighty attitude. She couldn’t wait to embarrass her, so she probed.

Now, her gaze swept across the three people behind Liu Lanqing and quickly locked onto the youngest one. It’s you!

She immediately opened her eyes slightly, and an even stronger force suddenly pressed down on Lin Yan!

“The geniuses of the Divine Weapon Valley are naturally powerful, but the strength of the others is probably…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Tong Baiwei’s expression suddenly changed drastically. She stood up from her seat and took two large steps back. Her body subconsciously assumed a defensive posture as she stared at Lin Yan sharply.

The expressions of everyone present changed drastically, and their forces were stimulated to varying degrees.

A savage and terrifying aura appeared, as if a terrifying ferocious beast had suddenly woken up and opened its eyes, shaking its body.

However, in the next moment, this aura instantly disappeared, as if it was just an illusion.

Everyone looked at Lin Yan in shock. Even Liu Lanqing was shocked. She could not imagine that the terrifying aura just now was actually emitted by Lin Yan.

It was this terrifying aura pressure again!

Qin Xiang recalled the humiliation of his sword being snatched away by Lin Yan in one move, and his face darkened.

Under everyone’s scrutinizing gazes, Lin Yan was habitually expressionless, but in his heart, he cursed the woman for suddenly attacking him!

When the pressure enveloped him, Lin Yan subconsciously reacted and released the aura of the Azure Dragon Riding Wind and Thunder as a defense. Now, he became the focus of everyone present.

Liu Lanqing looked at Lin Yan deeply and restrained the shock on her face. She turned around and said indifferently to Tong Baiwei, “You asked for it. If you wantonly test me next time, don’t blame me for being rude!”

Tong Baiwei’s face alternated between green and white as she slowly sat back down.

At this moment, the third person on the left suddenly said, “Lord Liu, from the looks of this young hero, he doesn’t seem to be from the prefecture capital, right?”

Liu Lanqing narrowed his eyes. “Huo Qing, what does it have to do with you?”

She clearly recognized this man. Her expression was not as casual as before.

Huo Qing chuckled and said, “Lord Liu, don’t be anxious. I’m just curious. The pressure just now was not produced by force, but it really existed. Don’t you think it’s strange that it’s so terrifying and powerful?”

Liu Lanqing said calmly, “Everyone has their own fortuitous encounters and ultimate techniques. What’s so strange about that?”

“However, a Tough Realm cultivator actually emitted an aura that even I was terrified of. This is definitely not simple. In my opinion, this is a little similar to the legendary… Heart Spirit!”

All the Noble Realm martial masters, including Qin Xiang and Xiao Ye, were shocked. Only Lin Yan, Fan Xiaopeng, and the other Demon Suppression Guard were at a loss.

“Impossible!”

The others did not speak, but Qin Xiang was the first to shout, “The Heart Spirit is the prerequisite to condensing the Heart Seed. That’s an ability that’s even higher than the Wondrous Realm. Only dragons and phoenixes among humans can have it. How is it possible for him, a Tough Realm cultivator, to have it?!”

Huo Qing smiled faintly and said, “Little brother from the Divine Weapon Valley, you’re quite knowledgeable.

“However, this Heart Spirit is said to be the embodiment of a person’s inner aura. It has nothing to do with realm.

“Doesn’t your Divine Weapon Valley have a peerless genius who comprehended his true self at the Noble Realm and released his Heart Spirit?”

Qin Xiang’s expression turned even uglier. He seemed to have thought of something bad and said in a low voice, “Can he compare to Du Tianxing?! Du Tianxing is a sword genius that the world loves. He’s a natural sword leader and an overwhelming prodigy! However, Lin Yan is just a dog who struggled to crawl out of the mud of the lower city…”

“Shut up!”

Liu Lanqing suddenly interrupted him and said speechlessly, “Qin Xiang, watch your mouth!”

Huo Qing’s eyes lit up. “Little brother, your name is Lin Yan, right? You’re actually a local of Ding’an City?!”

Before Lin Yan could speak, Liu Lanqing raised her hand and clasped it. A burning flame rose from her palm, and the temperature in the living room suddenly rose. “Huo Qing, are you trying to poach someone in front of me? Heart Spirit? Hehe, you’re shallow. Don’t fool others!”

Huo Qing’s eyes flashed. “Why do you say that, Lord Liu?”

Liu Lanqing snorted. “The Heart Spirit is an extension of the heart. Once it blooms, it can’t be controlled and restrained for at least a year and a half.

“Lin Yan is only at the Tough Realm. How can he control it freely? He grew up right under my nose. If he really has the Heart Spirit, do you think I’m blind?”

Huo Qing opened his mouth and smiled helplessly. “Then Lord Liu, tell me, what is this?”

“It’s just a martial arts technique that erupts with aura. Why? Do you want to bully the weak and snatch the things of the younger generation?”

“Lord Liu, you must be joking.”

Huo Qing kept quiet, but he looked at Lin Yan from time to time with a kind gaze.

The surrounding people subconsciously heaved a sigh of relief. Thinking about it, it made sense. No matter how talented a Tough Realm cultivator was, his strength was only limited. Where did he get the mental state and soil to nurture such an aura?

But even so, this kid called Lin Yan was shockingly strong. He came from the lower city and was even more dazzling than Qin Xiang and Xiao Ye!

Liu Lanqing glanced at everyone coldly. “Everyone, don’t think about it. Lin Yan has already been valued by my Demon Suppression Division. You don’t have a chance.”

Huo Qing said indifferently, “You can’t say that. Since Lin Yan came from the lower city, he’s also in the selection of the Dingdeng Genius Battle.

“According to the rules, he has the right to make his own choice even a second before entering the prefecture capital!”

Liu Lanqing’s expression suddenly turned cold. To put it bluntly, the so-called Dingdeng Genius Battle was a meeting where the various factions in the prefecture capital chose people.

The reason why she didn’t let Lin Yan participate in the Dingdeng Genius Battle was because she felt that Lin Yan’s talent was not bad. She wanted to take him under her wing and couldn’t be bothered to snatch him from other factions.

Now, she realized that Lin Yan was like a bamboo shoot after a rain. He actually broke out of the ground and revealed himself to the world!

She couldn’t help but snort. “Why? Do you think that my Demon Suppression Division can’t compare to your Huo family?”

Huo Qing was calm. “1 wouldn’t dare, 1 wouldn’t dare. The Demon Suppression Division is naturally big and powerful. I just want to say that if you want to wear a crown, you have to bear its weight.

“The death rate of the Demon Suppression Division, especially the newbies, is the highest in the entire prefecture capital.”

Liu Lanqing was expressionless. “Could it be that we should be like you nobles, hiding our heads like turtles and not seeing anything?”

Huo Qing shrugged his shoulders. “I’m just stating the facts. In terms of safety, my Huo family is indeed more than ten times safer than the Demon Suppression Division.”

Liu Lanqing leaned back in her chair and raised her hand. Five thin flames appeared on her fingertips again. “Whatever you say. Everyone, you can leave.

The six of them looked at each other and stood up.

Before Huo Qing left, he still gave Lin Yan a kind smile before leaving.

“You guys can leave too. Lin Yan, stay behind.”

After the others left, only Lin Yan and Liu Lanqing were left in the living room..
