Duan Zhaonan suddenly discovered that the aura on Lin Zhong's body was undergoing some mysterious changes.

Due to his limited knowledge of the realm, he didn't understand what this change meant.

But in his perception, Lin Zhong became purer, more ethereal, more transparent, and more unattainable.

Although he was sitting within three feet of him, he seemed thousands of miles away.

Time passes slowly.

Only a few minutes have passed since I entered the teahouse.

But for Duan Zhaonan, who was sitting on pins and needles, it seemed like centuries.

He straightened his back, put his hands flat on his knees, and sat upright, but his eyes were always staring at the tip of his nose, not even daring to look at Lin Zhong.

Because even just looking at it would make his heart tremble, fear abound, and even his soul seemed to be burned.

"Didn't Ruyi Gate block the news?"

I don't know how long it took, but Lin Zhong's calm and indifferent voice reached Duan Zhaonan's ears again: "Lin Youhan has gone crazy. Isn't it a major blow to Ruyi Sect?"

"They did block the news, but the effect was not good."

Duan Zhaonan replied: "Although the Ruyi Sect Ancestral Court is located deep in the Shiwan Mountains, it cannot be completely isolated from the world. In the past two days, some mixed true and false news have begun to spread, and the Ruyi Sect may also be aware of this.

, so I simply chose to take the initiative to make it public."

"Did you mention me?"

"......have."

"What did they say about me?"

"Uh...yes..."

Duan Zhaonan was sweating on his forehead and he hesitated for a long time before he plucked up the courage to say: "Leader, why do you care about the opinions of a group of women?"

Lin Zhong originally just asked casually, but now seeing Duan Zhaonan hesitate to speak, he became interested: "Just tell it truthfully, I won't blame you."

"They said that you, leader, are bullying, arrogant, cruel, and ruthless. You relied on your status and strength to bully a group of weak women from the Ruyi Sect, and even insulted the elders of your own family..."

Duan Zhaonan was sweating profusely, and after a lot of effort, he finally finished his sentence.

"Bullying, arrogant, cruel, callous?"

Lin Zhong couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Listen to what they said, I seem to be a big devil who does all kinds of evil?"

"Please rest assured, my subordinates will investigate thoroughly when they return. Anyone who dares to slander your reputation, no matter what their identity, will be severely punished!"

Duan Zhaonan, who was sweating profusely, beat his chest loudly.

"Forget it, justice is in the heart of the people. They can say whatever they like. How can you still silence others?"

Lin Zhong waved his hand in an understatement, and then changed the topic: "However, you must pay close attention to the trend of public opinion to see if there are other forces behind it that are fueling the situation and taking this opportunity to pour dirty water on the Wu League and me and destroy our reputation.

"

"You mean?"

"Zhenwu Sect, Wuji Sect, and their allies and vassals."

Lin Chong's eyes were dark: "If we want to completely reform the martial arts world, we will definitely touch the core interests of those famous sects, and they will never just sit back and die."

"I obey my orders!"

Duan Zhaonan immediately stood up and held his hands solemnly.

"Is there anything else?"

"Actually... there is one more thing."

"Um?"

"The Fifth Ancestor Sect, Tianluo Sect and other sects have learned that you are visiting the southern province and want to come to see them. Are you willing to meet them?" Duan Zhaonan asked cautiously.

Lin Chong thought for a while: "Okay."

Duan Zhaonan was overjoyed: "When will you have time? We can prepare in advance."

"Tomorrow."

"Okay, then my subordinate will pick you up in person tomorrow."

After talking about the business, Lin Zhong didn't want to chat with Duan Zhaonan, so he nodded and picked up the tea cup to see off the guests.

"My subordinates resign."

Duan Zhaonan was quite sensible and immediately turned around and left the teahouse.

It wasn't until he walked out of the door of the teahouse and out of Lin Zhong's perception range that Duan Zhaonan let out a long sigh of relief, as if a thousand kilograms of burden had been lifted.

A breeze blew by, and Duan Zhaonan felt a little cold.

During the seven or eight minutes of talking with Lin Zhong, he actually broke into a sweat.

Especially the back was almost completely soaked, which shows the great pressure.

"Head of the Club!"

At this moment, a large group of warriors came running from a distance and surrounded Duan Zhaonan.

These warriors are the middle and high-level cadres of the southern branch. Most of them are in their prime. They are wearing the martial arts uniforms. Some are tall or short, some are fat and some are thin. They are all full of energy and extraordinary bearing.

They were not qualified to meet Lin Zhong, so they could only wait outside.

Duan Zhaonan calmly circulated his inner breath, instantly evaporating the sweat. At the same time, he put his hands behind his back and raised his chin.

"Leader, have you seen the alliance leader?" asked a warrior who was stronger and taller than Duan Zhaonan.

"certainly."

Duan Zhaonan nodded reservedly: "Although the alliance leader has heavy affairs and many things to deal with, he still took the time to meet with me."

"What did the leader say?"

"What instructions does the leader give us?"

"Is the alliance leader really as powerful as the rumors say?"

"Do we need to hold a banquet to welcome the alliance leader?"

Everyone spoke in all directions.

The corners of Duan Zhaonan's mouth twitched vaguely, he glanced at these subordinates, and said four words expressionlessly: "We'll talk about it when we get back!"

****

The aftermath of the Ruyimen incident gradually spread within the martial arts world.

So many things happened during this period that it felt overwhelming.

Du Huaizhen, the martial saint of the town, abdicated and retired to seclusion. The Martial League branch of Bigang City was attacked. A fierce battle broke out between factions in the eastern province. Chen Hanzhou, the leader of the Wuji Sect, broke the pill and entered the Gang. Xiao Shitong, the leader of the Tianlong Sect, and Cao Hong, the leader of the Yaori Sect, fell one after another.

, Lin Youhan, the head of the Ruyi Sect, went crazy...

One pile, one piece.

It all heralds the coming of a turbulent and magnificent era.

And all of this was caused by Du Huaizhen's abdication.

Because Du Huaizhen suppressed the martial arts world for too long.

Over the past sixty years, the Yanhuang martial arts world has lain at the feet of Du Huaizhen. Although it has become peaceful and stable, it is still like a pool of stagnant water, losing the possibility of change.

Now that the martial arts saint who has been invincible for a hundred years has disappeared, and the martial arts world that has lost its suppression will move towards chaos or a new life?

No one knows the answer.

Only one thing is self-evident.

Under the avalanche, no snowflake can survive alone.

All over the world, no matter it was a bustling downtown or a remote town, wherever there were warriors, almost everyone was talking about Lin Zhong and Ruyi Sect.

"That guy from the Martial Alliance really broke into the Ruyi Sect's ancestral court and started a fight?"

"It's true. I can testify that I have a sister who is a disciple of the Ruyi Sect. She saw it with her own eyes."

"Why exactly? Did the Ruyi Sect offend him somewhere? It's impossible, right? The Ruyi Sect all have female disciples, and they have always kept aloof from the world. How could they offend him?"

"Haha, he has a sharp weapon and a murderous intention. He has unparalleled power and can do whatever he wants. Naturally, he will not take us shrimps seriously anymore..."

"After all, that person is still too young and his behavior is not mature enough, but it is understandable. Who hasn't had the time to be impulsive?"
