Chapter 100: Inner Qi Perfection at Age 20? Why Not Call Him an Immortal

The person who arrived was the Yellow-level Profound Bird Guard, Lin Mu!

After Lin Mu entered, he stood straight, casting a commanding gaze around the high-ranking members of the Celestial Sea Gang.

Until Lin Mu’s eyes fell upon the elderly man lying on the wooden chair.

Only then did Lin Mu’s scrutinizing gaze slightly recede.

Because that old man was Hua Tianhai, the former gang leader of the Celestial Sea Gang, a presence within the Inner Qi Realm.

Even as a Profound Bird Guard, he needed to show a certain amount of respect to someone of the Inner Qi Realm.

Lin Mu ignored the other members of the Celestial Sea Gang and cupped his hands politely towards Hua Tianhai, speaking neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Mr. Hai, we are from the Profound Bird Guards, following the orders of the Lord Xuan Envoy, to take over this street."

"If Mr. Hai has no objections, please immediately take away your Celestial Sea Gang members."

Although Lin Mu’s tone was very amiable, in the eyes of the Celestial Sea Gang members, it was extremely arrogant.

These words did not regard the Celestial Sea Gang at all, calling them when needed and dismissing them at will.

What did they think of the Celestial Sea Gang?

However, as the current leader of the Celestial Sea Gang, Hua Yunfei showed no strong emotions.

He had learned about the Profound Bird Guards from his father, Hua Yunhai.

They were an enormous entity even within the Great Xia Dynasty, not something the Celestial Sea Gang could provoke.

The next second, a violent wind rose, and a terrifying aura swept out from Hua Yunhai’s body.

Lin Mu instantly felt a wave of oppression, his blood and energy surging to resist this powerful aura.

Hua Yunhai remained lying on the wooden chair, staring deeply at Lin Mu before speaking after a long silence.

"Is this the idea of that old fellow, Li Chengfeng?"

Facing Hua Yunhai’s terrifying pressure, Lin Mu replied steadily, "Mr. Hai, I hope you won’t make things difficult for our Profound Bird Guards!"

"The orders from the Lord Xuan Envoy are that anyone daring to obstruct the actions of the Profound Bird Guards..."

"Will be executed without mercy!"

When Lin Mu said the last four words, he did so while staring at Hua Yunhai.

"How dare you!"

"Outrageous!"

"You’ve gone too far!"

Seeing this scene, even the leader of the Celestial Sea Gang, Hua Yunfei, couldn’t hold back, let alone the other high-ranking members of the Celestial Sea Gang.

Hua Tianhai, as a martial artist of the Inner Qi Realm, was like a deity within the Celestial Sea Gang.

Yet here was someone daring to humiliate Hua Tianhai, the former leader of the gang, right in front of them.

This was intolerable!

Several elders of the Celestial Sea Gang immediately drew their weapons, wearing fierce expressions as they looked at Lin Mu and the Profound Bird Guards behind him.

As if they were just waiting for the gang leader’s command to rush forward and fight these Profound Bird Guards right then.

"Is that so?"

After hearing Lin Mu’s words, Hua Yunhai’s face tightened, showing some doubt.

What is that old fellow Li Chengfeng doing?

He personally dealt with those ghostly matters for the Profound Bird Guards himself.

By all rights, that old fellow Li Chengfeng should be too busy laughing to trouble himself over this Wind Moon Tower Ghost.

Could it be that there truly was an astounding secret as he had guessed?

Upon considering this possibility, Hua Yunhai restrained his aura.

That old fellow, Li Chengfeng, was unfathomably powerful, a martial artist who had achieved mastery in the Inner Qi Realm, and even Hua Yunhai was not his match.

More so, Li Chengfeng was a Profound-level Profound Bird Guard, with a status far beyond what a mere gang member could challenge.

After a while, Hua Yunhai finally spoke leisurely, "Yunfei, have everyone from the Celestial Sea Gang withdraw."

However, Hua Yunhai had no intention of leaving; he intended to stay and see if the Wind Moon Tower held any secrets.

For a trivial, albeit bizarre, incident to warrant such attention from that old fellow Li Chengfeng, it was far from simple.

After giving his instructions, Hua Yunhai ignored Lin Mu, closed his eyes, and continued to lie on the wooden chair.

Just as he ended with a mild statement.

"This inn belongs to my Celestial Sea Gang."

"I will stay in this inn for the next few days. Your Profound Bird Guard members have no objections, do they?"

Hua Yunhai’s words made Lin Mu’s eyebrows raise slightly, seemingly conflicted.

However, given that Hua Yunhai was a martial artist of the Inner Qi Realm, Lin Mu dared not press too hard.

Even though Lin Mu knew the other party wouldn’t dare strike at the Profound Bird Guards, what if they did?

Life is precious, so one must be cautious!

Never mind, since they’ve withdrawn the Celestial Sea Gang members, it’s best to wait for the arrival of the newly appointed Lord Xuan Envoy to handle it.

In the Profound Bird Guards’ hall, sitting on the chairs below Li Chengfeng were a man in his fifties, appearing just a bit younger than Li Chengfeng.

He was He Yan, the Vice Xuan Envoy of the White Dao Prefecture’s city mansion Xuan Bird Guards, an initial stage Inner Qi Realm martial artist.

At the moment, after hearing Li Chengfeng’s words, he could hardly believe it.

"What? Li, you plan to leave White Dao Prefecture’s city mansion for several months?"

"And you’ve found a young person to temporarily serve as the Xuan Envoy of White Dao Prefecture?"

"And he’s a martial artist around twenty years old with Inner Qi Perfection, this..."

Li Chengfeng’s words led this Vice Xuan Envoy, He Yan, to doubt his own reality.

He had lived so long and had never heard such an unbelievable story.

Twenty years old? Inner Qi Perfection?

Why not just say he’s a god?

"Old He, Xuan is currently in secluded cultivation, and there’s no time for him to meet you."

"In due time, you will know. I’ve already handed over the Xuan Envoy token of the White Dao Prefecture’s city mansion to him."

"All your actions in the coming months must be reported to this Xuan."

Seeing He Yan’s face full of disbelief, Li Chengfeng felt a triumphant feeling rise in his heart.

Seeing these old fellows showing the same skepticism he initially had, gave him reassurance.

"By the way, has Yu Hong not returned from Quicksand County yet?"

Li Chengfeng suddenly remembered another Vice Xuan Envoy, Yu Hong, and asked He Yan.

Seven days ago, not far from the Quicksand County outside, someone reportedly heard a tiger’s roar, seemingly coming from deep within the Hulao Mountain.

Hence, Li Chengfeng sent Vice Envoy Yu Hong to investigate.

Li Chengfeng’s inquiry prompted He Yan to suppress his inner shock and adopt a serious attitude.

"Old Yu has not yet returned."

After all, that roar from Hulao Mountain was no trivial matter.

"Never mind, just do as I said, and send a notification to personnel of at least Yellow-level Profound Bird Guard status."

Originally, Li Chengfeng intended to convene all Yellow-level Profound Bird Guards today.

But since Lu Xuan was going to be in secluded cultivation for two more days, Li Chengfeng dismissed the idea and simply had He Yan arrange for the notification.

Regardless, with Xuan’s martial arts realm of Inner Qi Perfection, managing the White Dao Prefecture’s city mansion should be no problem.
