The surrounding neighbors couldn't help but exclaim in surprise upon hearing this.
Many ordinary people didn't know much about the first place in the Demon Suppression Division assessment.
Even if they knew it was impressive, they didn't know exactly how impressive.
But.
Being recruited as a guest elder by the Black Tiger Martial Arts School was a concrete display of power!
This was because the Black Tiger Martial Arts School was located in the north of the city.
It could be said to be an absolutely dominant force.
Many people, even those who served as guards at the Black Tiger Martial Arts School, felt it was a glorious matter that brought honor to their ancestors and conferred status!
And that kid from the Lin family was actually recruited as a guest elder – this was an incredibly important figure!
Hearing the widespread discussion, Lin Feng was stunned.
Had people from the Black Tiger Martial Arts School come to his home?
This was normal.
The Black Tiger Martial Arts School's sphere of influence was the north of the city.
Finding his home was not difficult.
However, why had they come to his home?
Lin Feng walked through the crowd of gossiping people.
Then, he saw two burly men standing guard outside his front door, holding sabers.
It was as if they were blocking anyone from entering.
These two men were wearing the uniforms of the Black Tiger Martial Arts School. Lin Feng glanced at them and felt that their cultivation was not low.
Because they were also at the Body Tempering sixth and seventh level.
Lin Feng's approaching figure was also noticed by many people.
"Eh? Speak of the devil, isn't that the kid from the Lin family?!"
"Shh, still calling him 'kid from the Lin family'? He took first place in the Demon Suppression Division assessment, his future is limitless, and he could very well become a Squad Leader in the future!"
"Keep your voices down, keep your voices down. It's not good to let such an important figure hear us discussing him!"
As soon as they saw Lin Feng arrive, many neighbors fell silent.
They looked at Lin Feng with fear in their eyes, like they were looking at a tiger, and then made way for him, only watching from a distance.
Lin Feng arrived at his doorstep and looked at the two burly men.
Upon seeing Lin Feng, the two burly men immediately became respectful.
"Guest Official Lin!"
"Greetings, Guest Official Lin."
These two had previously watched the Assessment at the Demon Suppression Division, so they recognized Lin Feng.
"What are you doing here?" Lin Feng asked.
Before the two burly men could answer.
A bold voice came from inside the house.
"Our Black Tiger Martial Arts School is here specifically to protect Guest Official Lin's family!"
The bold voice traveled from afar, full of energy!
A surge of True Qi carried the voice to Lin Feng's ears.
Lin Feng's heart stirred, and his gaze locked onto the scene inside the door.
He saw his own sister, Lin Qingxue, walking out with a slightly thin middle-aged man.
Upon closer inspection, the middle-aged man's appearance was extremely similar to Lü Pingyang, the master of the Black Tiger Martial Arts School, from before.
Of course, Lin Feng didn't care about these details.
The moment he saw Lin Qingxue.
The anxiety he had been holding instantly dissipated.
His sister was safe and sound, not harmed in the slightest!
In the distance, Lin Qingxue also saw Lin Feng.
Her face immediately lit up with joy!
Lin Qingxue, a young girl, had lost both her parents and was living a lonely and dependent life.
Just then, Lin Feng had left home to go to the Demon Suppression Division.
She was left alone at home, a weak woman!
It was impossible not to be afraid.
But Lin Qingxue also knew very well that she absolutely couldn't be a burden, couldn't drag Lin Feng down, so she pretended to be strong.
In these past few days, news of accidental deaths had been continuously coming from the north of the city, and Lin Qingxue was terrified.
Her longing for Lin Feng was greater than at any other moment.
Now that Lin Feng was back, her joy was beyond words.
"Brother! You're back, you're finally back!"
Lin Qingxue's expression was excited and slightly flushed, tears seeming to well up in her eyes.
She hadn't shed a single tear in the days Lin Feng had been away.
But after Lin Feng returned, her emotions felt on the verge of collapse.
Lin Qingxue ran a short distance and then threw herself into Lin Feng's arms.
Feeling the girl's delicate body tremble in his embrace, and thinking of Lin Qingxue's helplessness these past few days, Lin Feng felt immense heartache.
Lin Feng stroked Lin Qingxue's back and said softly, "Qingxue, I'm sorry."
"Brother came back late, making you worry for so many days."
Lin Feng felt incredibly guilty.
To become stronger, he had to go to the Demon Suppression Division!
It was a choice he had to make.
Fortunately, in the few days since entering the Demon Suppression Division, Lin Feng's strength had improved like a rocket.
After becoming a Squad Leader, he gained a privilege.
He could have a small courtyard within the Demon Suppression Division.
Now that Lin Feng was back, he could take Lin Qingxue to live in the Demon Suppression Division.
The interior of the Demon Suppression Division was arguably the safest place in Wancheng City, bar none.
Lin Qingxue, held in Lin Feng's arms, didn't say anything. For a while, she didn't want to leave his embrace.
She had been too scared these past few days.
Lin Feng's gaze shifted to the middle-aged man who bore a striking resemblance to Lü Pingyang.
He was the deputy head of the Black Tiger Martial Arts School.
Seeing Lin Feng look over, the man quickly returned a smile and said:
"I am the Black Tiger Martial Arts School Vice Head, Lü Anyang."
Lü Anyang stated his name and then said, "Little brother Lin, we have also caused you some trouble by coming here."
"But don't worry, we have no ill intentions."
"Recently, there have been sightings of the Black Lotus Cult north of the city, and many demons are waiting for an opportunity to cause trouble."
"I know that little brother Lin has a younger sister, so I brought people here to provide protection."
Lü Anyang explained his purpose.
Lin Feng's heart stirred.
Looking at it this way, the Black Tiger Martial Arts School really knows how to act!
They even knew to bring people to protect his sister.
"Thank you."
Lü Anyang waved his hand, "We are all people of the Black Tiger Martial Arts School, why be so formal with thanks!"
Lin Feng nodded slightly, then stepped inside with Lin Qingxue.
The door closed, and the two burly men outside continued to stand guard.
Many neighbors outside watched, their faces showing envy.
From the conversation between the two parties, they had already understood that Lin Feng had likely joined the Black Tiger Martial Arts School.
To have someone of the Vice Head's caliber personally bring people to ensure their safety.
It could only be said that the Black Tiger Martial Arts School highly valued Lin Feng!
Many people sighed, thinking that after Lin Feng's father's accidental death, these two would be helpless in these chaotic times and likely wouldn't last long.
Who would have thought that this Lin Feng was even more formidable than his father!
Entering his own small courtyard.
Lin Feng felt a sense of emotion.
Returning here, it hadn't been many days, but his state of mind was vastly different.
He looked at his sister, Lin Qingxue, and said softly, "Qingxue, I am now a Squad Leader in the Demon Suppression Division, with certain privileges. I can bring our family to live here."
"You're coming with me to the Demon Suppression Division right now. It's safer there!"
"Mhm, okay." Lin Qingxue nodded lightly, her eyes shining.
Being by Lin Feng's side was naturally the best.
After speaking, Lin Feng looked back at Lü Anyang and asked in a deep voice, "Pavilion Master Lü, I'd like to ask about this Black Lotus Cult."
"If Pavilion Master Lü knows, I hope you'll tell me."
