Thousand Lakes Province, Longmen City.
This place is the capital of Thousand Lakes Province. The city is filled with towering buildings, bustling streets, and lively crowds. It is also the legendary location of the Linglong Holy Land.
Unlike the majestic and imposing Heavenly Sun Sect, which attracts worldwide attention.
Even standing above Longmen City and looking into the distance, one cannot see any trace of the Linglong Holy Land.
At the same time.
Three special guests arrived at the Qingyi Bureau in Longmen City.
The atmosphere in the quiet waiting room was rather oppressive.
The director and deputy director of the Longmen Bureau, both dressed in sky-blue overcoats, could only sit in the second seats on either side.
Seated in the main seat was a woman with phoenix eyes and an ethereal air, dressed in a Baiyi.
Her hair was tied up with a hairpin, and her eyes revealed a cold indifference as if she had no interest in anything in the world.
Two girls in white dresses stood behind him, saying nothing.
"True Person Bai Yu, I sent people to scout the area around the Secret Realm again this morning. Our initial assessment is that the Beast Tide is imminent."
The Longmen City police chief rose slightly and said in a heavy tone, "I'm afraid it's difficult for me to resist alone. I wonder if the Linglong Holy Land has made up its mind?"
"..."
True Person Bai Yu's expression was indifferent. He casually pushed aside the untouched tea in front of him and asked in a flat voice:
"Doesn't the Qingyi Bureau in Longmen have good tea?"
Upon hearing this, the eight law enforcement officers in the room all turned ashen-faced. What kind of time is this to be bothered with such things?
If Longmen City falls, the consequences will be almost unimaginable!
The Longmen City police chief clenched his drooping hands, desperately suppressing the anger welling up inside him.
If his good friend Li Cangjian hadn't been away on business, why would he have bothered to come and seek out this lofty Linglong Holy Land?
Heaven knows why this high-level Secret Realm, which had been peaceful for decades, suddenly erupted in chaos recently.
But now it has already happened.
Before the headquarters could reply, he could only try to save Longmen City as a precaution.
After a moment of silence.
The old bureau chief asked in a relatively calm tone, "What would you like to drink, True Person?"
"Su Xue Yin Zhen." True Person Bai Yu's tone was calm and unwavering.
As if completely oblivious to the oppressive atmosphere in the room, she didn't even lift her eyelids.
"Go soak."
Longmen City Police Chief Liu Cangjin took a deep breath and gave instructions to a senior law enforcement officer beside him.
In any case, the lives of millions of Huaxia must not be compromised in the slightest.
It's just a little frustrating, nothing to worry about.
"Director..."
The senior law enforcement officer's expression turned grim, and he gritted his teeth as he replied, "We don't have anything like that in our department."
"Then go buy it," Liu Cangjin said expressionlessly.
"... yes!"
The senior law enforcement officer hesitated at first, wanting to ask where he could buy such a thing, but in the end he gritted his teeth and agreed.
He got up and left the reception room.
"Puff--"
A female disciple from the Linglong Holy Land behind True Person Bai Yu couldn't help but laugh out loud.
This [Su Xue Yin Zhen] is a specialty Spirit Tea of Linglong Mountain, known for its detoxifying and calming effects, making it extremely precious.
Even within the Linglong Holy Land, only a powerful figure like their own master, who is at the Martial Infant Realm, can receive a share every month.
The other party actually wanted to buy it; they really have no taste.
I didn't pay attention to her laughter.
Director Liu Cangjin looked back at True Person Bai Yu in the main seat and said in a deep voice, "True Person, can we discuss business first?"
Unexpectedly, True Person Bai Yu shook his head with utter indifference.
The meaning is obvious.
"Have some tea first."
This time, a hint of coldness crept into her tone.
"What do you mean by 'drink tea first'?!"
Upon hearing this, the deputy director of Longmen City finally couldn't contain himself any longer. He stood up abruptly and said through gritted teeth, "True Person! Forgive my bluntness, but the situation is now extremely urgent!"
"Your Linglong Holy Land requested three precious [Spirit Suppressing Pill], and the Longmen City Qingyi Bureau has already provided them."
"Now that the Beast Tide is coming on strong, shouldn't we first talk about how to join forces?"
Spirit Suppressing Pill.
A type of pill that can help Fourth-Tier Martial Artist guard their Spiritual Platform, greatly increasing the probability of breaking through to the Divine Mansion, but it is extremely expensive to produce.
In its early years, it was the foundation of the Wind Spirit Sect. Later, the sect was wiped out by the Qingyi Bureau, and Danfang naturally fell into the hands of the Qingyi Bureau.
In the past ten years, the Qingyi Bureau of Longmen City has only produced three such artifacts, and originally intended to add three Divine Mansion Realm martial artists to the bureau in the future.
Unexpectedly, after receiving the letter of appeal from the Qingyi Bureau, the Linglong Holy Land immediately offered three Spirit Suppressing Pill as payment.
Liu Cangjin waved his hand, which brought the True Person Bai Yu to this place.
But to his surprise, this so-called transcendent immortal sect would be so arrogant.
The True Person Bai Yu before them exuded an indifference that regarded all living beings as mere straw dogs.
"How dare you!"
Hearing what the deputy director of Longmen City said.
A disciple of Linglong, her eyebrows furrowed, stepped forward and rebuked her in the same manner:
"My master Transcendence worldly affairs and doesn't care much about these trivial matters. He has already come all this way, yet you dare to be so rude! You are simply ungrateful!"
As her angry words fell to a halt.
Liu Cangjin suppressed his emotions, his breathing heavy. "..."
He really wanted to flip the table over and start a fight to vent his anger.
However, one cannot afford to be angry.
Flowers may bloom again, but youth never returns.
He is now carrying the lives of millions of people in Longmen City on his shoulders!
Finally, Liu Cangjin forced a smile, his voice slightly hoarse as he addressed the True Person Bai Yu:
"True Person, we simply hope to enter the cooperation phase as soon as possible, so that both of us can give the people of Longmen City an explanation. Once this matter is resolved, the Longmen City Qingyi Bureau will present two more [Spirit Suppressing Pill] as a token of our gratitude!"
"..."
Upon hearing this, True Person Bai Yu raised his phoenix eyes for the first time and said in a detached voice, "I want the formula for the Spirit Suppressing Pill."
"A prescription?"
Liu Cangjin clenched his fists suddenly, his anger intensifying once more.
Although the Linglong Holy Land holds a transcendent position and only accepts female disciples, it is still a part of Huaxia. Now that the country is in crisis, it would be one thing if they didn't immediately lend a helping hand, but they actually did this kind of opportunistic act!
This is absolutely outrageous!
If we could turn back time a hundred years, this Linglong Holy Land would have been nothing more than a larger Wind Spirit Sect; how dare they be so arrogant!
Even setting aside past glories.
If Huaxia were to produce even one more Martial Dao Grandmaster, given the Linglong Holy Land's past actions, it would inevitably be brought to its knees by Huaxia!
Liu Cangjin took a deep breath. "True Person wait a moment, Master. This matter is of great importance. I will go and consult my superiors."
True Person Bai Yu had already withdrawn his gaze and gave a nonchalant "hmm."
Liu Cangjin turned and walked out the door, his steps extremely hurried.
As if venting his anger, he walked all the way out of the soundproof array inside the building before finally stopping.
Liu Cangjin took several deep breaths before taking out the badge that symbolized the bureau chief.
Just then, the waist tag suddenly began to vibrate violently and emitted an urgent red light.
Liu Cangjin was taken aback at first, then immediately realized that it was the Arbiter from within the bureau contacting him!
Immediately afterwards.
Before he could even react, the connection was automatically established via the waist tag.
A calm, youthful voice rang in his ears:
"I am about to arrive at the Qingyi Bureau in Longmen City. I order you to immediately organize your forces and seal off the Linglong Holy Land!"
Liu Cangjin suddenly gripped the waist token tightly, and his whole body began to tremble slowly.
I could hardly believe my ears.
In an instant, a streak of cyan-gold light crashed to the ground, and the iconic white cloak came into his view.
Liu Cangjin's face went numb, his whole body trembled, and he shouted excitedly:
"You, you are...!!"
The White-robed Youth slowly straightened up, looked at him calmly, and said indifferently:
"The Arbiter, Ye Li."
As he spoke, the large seal hanging at his waist shimmered with light.
