Section 918

"Hmm?"

The burly man's face changed slightly.

Crack!

Lin Chen shook his hand casually, and the guillotine broke directly from it. The piece in Lin Chen's hand chopped towards the burly man.

"Uh..."

The burly man's head flew up instantly, and his body flew backwards and hit the wall, and blood gushed out of his neck.

A headless corpse lay on the ground, and the blood dyed the ground red.

Lin Chen drank a glass of wine by himself, and then burned the place with a fire.

He slowly walked away...

Chapter 979 I warm the wine

Tianji City.

It is one of the 108 cities of Liuli Dynasty.

Most of the people in the city are ordinary people, while the cultivators are awe-inspiring and dare not provoke them easily.

In Tianji City, the most powerful force is Tianji Academy, which is full of cultivators with a deep foundation. People in the whole Tianji City are proud to join Tianji Academy.

The academy is aloof and will not interfere in worldly affairs. It is only responsible for teaching students to practice and solving some problems between practitioners.

Below the academy, there is also the City Lord's Mansion, which is responsible for all affairs in the city. If there is something that cannot be solved, it must be reported to the Tianji Academy, which will be handled by the academy.

In addition, there are some family forces in Tianji City, which ordinary people dare not provoke at all. Generally speaking, the forces in Tianji City are mixed.

Where there are living beings, there will be problems of survival.

On the streets of Jitian City, there are endless merchants coming and going, busy just for the "three taels of silver" that barely allows people to make a living.

Occasionally, some practitioners can be seen on the street, but the number is very rare.

In fact, this is normal. The so-called human-god world is not all practitioners above the true god realm. There are also many beings below the true god realm, which includes many ordinary people.

Every class has its own circle, and the same is true for the divine realm.

At this moment, outside the City Lord's Mansion.

Lin Chen appeared in a white coarse cloth.

"Stop!"

A guard came out from the door and stared at Lin Chen with a wary look, asking, "Who are you? What's the matter with you?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "I'm warming up the wine. I want to see the city lord Changsun. Please report it."

"..."

The guard looked Lin Chen up and down. Although Lin Chen was dressed simply and did not have any aura of a cultivator, his temperament was too unique to make people feel that he was not simple.

This guard was also a sharp-eyed person.

He thought for a while and said, "Wait a moment, but I'm not sure that the city lord will see you. I hope you are mentally prepared."

Unable to tell whether Lin Chen was real or fake, he did not dare to offend him casually. After all, there would occasionally be some unfathomable big figures in the city lord's mansion, so it was best not to mess around.

Otherwise, if he offended someone who should not be offended, he would not be able to survive even if he had ten lives.

"Thank you!"

Lin Chen nodded gently.

The guard went to report immediately.

Not long after.

The guard came back and said to Lin Chen, "The Lord of the City invites you to the hall."

"Thank you!"

Lin Chen walked into the mansion.

In the hall.

A dignified middle-aged man and a beautiful middle-aged woman were sitting. The man frowned, and it was unknown what he was thinking.

The beautiful middle-aged woman was holding a cup of fragrant tea, tasting it alone, with an extremely indifferent expression. Behind her, a pretty maid was gently massaging her shoulders.

These two people were the Lord of the City, Changsun Wuyong, and his wife, Tian Qingyue.

"I am warming the wine, and I meet the Lord of the City, Changsun!"

Lin Chen entered the hall and bowed slightly, but did not salute.

Changsun Wuyong stood up, and Tian Qingyue put down the teacup. Both of them were looking at Lin Chen.

Changsun Wuyong was secretly shocked. He was also a man who had seen many storms and had long trained a pair of fiery eyes. He could tell at a glance what kind of person was not simple.

The young man in front of him looked very ordinary, and there was no aura of cultivation on him, but his temperament was very unique. Even the big figures of the Liuli Dynasty did not have such a unique temperament.

It can be seen that the young man in front of him might not be simple.

Tian Qingyue glanced at Lin Chen and ignored him.

She did not have the eyesight of Changsun Wuyong. She felt that although the man in front of her looked good, he was just an ordinary person, and judging from his clothes, he seemed to be from the countryside.

Such a person was not qualified for her to pay too much attention.

Changsun Wuyong whispered: "I wonder what the little brother wants to see me for?"

Lin Chen took out the marriage certificate, handed it to Changsun Wuyong and said: "I have something to show you."

Changsun Wuyong was a little surprised, took the marriage certificate, and then opened it and took a look. Just one look, his face changed.

He stared at Lin Chen in surprise and said: "You...you are..."

Lin Chen nodded gently.

Changsun Wuyong took a deep breath, held the marriage certificate tightly, and his face changed from cloudy to bright.

After a while, he said seriously: "Nephew Wenjiu, I already know about the matter. You will live in the City Lord's Mansion for the time being."

Lin Chen chuckled and said: "This thing, City Lord, you don't need to care too much..."

He was not interested in the so-called marriage. He came here just to ask Granny Wen to solve this matter. If Changsun Wuyong didn't agree, he would turn around and leave.

But Changsun Wuyong's attitude surprised him a little.

Changsun Wuyong immediately waved his hand to stop Lin Chen from continuing. He said seriously: "You don't need to say more about this matter. I understand. Don't worry, this city lord will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation!"

"Xiao Tao!"

Changsun Wuyong looked at the maid next to him, and then said: "Take the warm wine to the east wing to rest."

"Okay, Lord City Lord!"

Xiao Tao hurriedly walked towards Lin Chen and whispered: "Mr. Wen, please come with me!"

Lin Chen smiled gently and followed Xiao Tao away. He wanted to see how the city lord's palace would handle the matter.

After Lin Chen and Xiao Tao left.

Tian Qingyue frowned and said, "Looking at how serious you are, is there any mystery in this envelope?"

The eldest grandson Wuyong handed the marriage certificate to Tian Qingyue: "Read it yourself."

Tian Qingyue took the marriage certificate and took a serious look at it.

The next second, she knew what was inside.

He couldn't help but said angrily: "This kid is actually from the Wen family. I don't agree with this. What a genius is my daughter? How can she marry a loser from a declining family?"

"Looking at this kid's appearance, he most likely just came out of some countryside. He probably can't survive anymore, so he wants to use this marriage letter to get some benefits."

The Wen family used to be considered a big family in Tianji City, but unfortunately it declined later.

The eldest grandson's family and the Wen family used to be considered good friends, and they cooperated with each other. I remember that in the past, the old man of the Wen family and the old man of the eldest grandson's family were considered close friends. The two seemed to have set a marriage for their grandchildren. .

Unfortunately, with the decline of the Wen family, this matter should have come to an end. Unexpectedly, someone showed up with a marriage certificate.

Changsun Wuyong glanced at Tian Qingyue and fell into silence.

Tian Qingyue said coldly: "That girl Qianxue is extremely talented. In a while, during the Tianji Academy exam, she will most likely be valued by Liuli Tianzong. By then, she is destined to become a big shot above the Nine Heavens. How can she Let her marry a countryman. Give that boy something immediately and ask him to leave the city lord's mansion quickly! "

Changsun Wuyong hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Look carefully at the witness in the marriage certificate...that is the National Preceptor..."

Tian Qingyue's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he glanced again. The witness of the marriage certificate was named Dong Boting.

And this Dong Boting is the Imperial Master of the Liuli Dynasty!

Chapter 980 Changsun Zhiruo

Twenty years ago, the Wen family was considered a big family in Tianji City.

Especially the old man of the Wen family is a powerful being, even the city lord's palace gives him three points of respect.

Changsun Wuyong's father was the previous city lord and had a close relationship with Mr. Wen.

The two drank and talked freely, and while they were drunk, they decided on a whim to get married.

And Dong Boting was standing by as a witness. At that time, Dong Boting was not a high-ranking national master, but just an outsider.

He was often a guest at the Wen family, and received great favor from Mr. Wen, so he witnessed the marriage with his own eyes and wrote his name on the marriage book.

Now twenty years have passed, the Wen family has declined, the development of the City Lord's Palace has become stronger and stronger, and Dong Boting has become the national master of the Liuli Dynasty, with an extremely respected status.

If the witness of this marriage was someone else, perhaps the City Lord's Palace would not pay attention to this marriage.

However, since this witness is the National Master, the effect will definitely be different. The City Lord's Palace does not dare to publicly regret the marriage.

Today, Dongboting still has some connections with the City Lord's Mansion. It can be said that Changsun Wuyong is able to securely hold the position of City Lord thanks to Dongboting.

If the other party knew that their city lord's palace openly regretted their marriage to a descendant of the Wen family, perhaps the position of the city lord should be changed.

"As long as we do it without anyone noticing, the National Preceptor may not know about this..."

A faint light flashed in Tian Qingyue's eyes. She was not willing to let her precious daughter marry a person from a declining family, and this person could not practice cultivation.
