Hearing Lin Yu's nonchalant reply, the guard holding the chain couldn't help but feel annoyed.

"I advise you two to stop talking nonsense and leave immediately!" the guard holding the chains said viciously.

Lin Yu smiled disdainfully upon hearing this, looking at the guard holding the chains with pity.

What's wrong with this guy? He told me and the black-robed high priest not to waste time talking, but he himself keeps spouting a whole bunch of nonsense!

When did I give him confidence, making him believe that I would listen to him?

Lin Yu was somewhat puzzled. Could it be that his attack just now was too subtle, failing to make the guard with the chains realize the difference in their skill levels, thus allowing the other party to remain so arrogant?

Lin Yu couldn't help but feel that this guy looked somewhat familiar.

Indeed, if you think about it carefully, wasn't that young beast-taming man in the Phoenix Tomb just like that?

However, the same temperament, when applied to the young man of the Phoenix Clan, would be seen as simple-minded and foolish, but when applied to the guard opposite him who held chains, it would be seen as utterly stupid.

However, these things meant nothing to Lin Yu. Right now, he only wanted to see Daoist Shouyang as soon as possible, no matter what method he had to use.

"Outsiders rarely get this far. Who exactly are you? No, who exactly are you?!" The guard holding the chains stared intently at Lin Yu.

After all, the black-robed high priest had already introduced his identity at the beginning, and the aura of the Demon Race on his body could not be hidden. His red hair further indicated that he was of the bloodline of the ancient phoenix clan.

However, the black-robed high priest had only introduced himself and had not mentioned that Lin Yu was also a member of the ancient Phoenix clan.

Moreover, Lin Yu's appearance alone is completely unlike that of the ancient phoenix clan.

Although Lin Yu found this place easily, it was all thanks to the Hongmeng System.

Once you arrive in the Netherworld Immortal Realm, the location of Daoist Shouyang will no longer be a secret, and you can easily find him.

However, in reality, for ordinary cultivators, the residence of Daoist Shouyang is an extremely secluded and mysterious place in the entire Netherworld Immortal Realm.

Ordinary outsiders would not be able to find the entrance to this cave, and even if they did, they would certainly be stopped by guards with chains.

So much so that, despite the Netherworld being in complete chaos over the years, the interior of the Shouyang Daoist's cave remained remarkably quiet.

"Who exactly are you?" Seeing that Lin Yu remained silent for a long time, the guard holding the chains asked again.

Seeing the other party's insistence, Lin Yu smiled faintly and replied, "Palace Master of the Primordial Hall, Lin Yu!"

A simple sentence introduced Lin Yu's identity, but it still couldn't explain why he was so powerful.

" Primordial Hall... Lin Yu?" The guard holding the chains muttered the two words, but his expression was somewhat puzzled.

It's quite normal that he didn't know the other person's name, after all, the guard with the chains had been in the Netherworld Immortal Realm for a long time and hadn't heard much about the strange people and events outside.

However, the Primordial Hall clearly sounds like the name of a powerful force. Even if I am ignorant, it is impossible for me not to know about a large force.

Seeing the other person's confused expression, Lin Yu shrugged helplessly.

In fact, he had long been used to this situation since the Dao Qi era.

A name that was once known to everyone in the Three Thousand Immortal Realms is now completely unknown to anyone. Alas!

However, Lin Yu didn't care much, since he hadn't really done anything significant during the Dao Qi era.

"Now that you know my name, the most important thing right now is to let me meet Daoist Shouyang!" Lin Yu continued.

"You'd better think this through. Whether you agree or disagree, with your strength, you can't stop me."

"After our previous encounters, I'm sure you've realized the difference in strength between us."

"An absolute difference in strength cannot be bridged by a little skill or source technique. What's the point of you struggling here? You might as well go in and report this."

Lin Yu earnestly tried to persuade the other party.

To be honest, after visiting the Daoqi Era, Lin Yu felt like he was about to turn into a mother hen.

Back in the Three Thousand Immortal Realms, Lin Yu would never have had such a good temper.

He tried to persuade the other party to be sensible, but the young man from the Phoenix Clan completely ignored his advice, and the guard holding the chains didn't budge an inch.

"Sigh, I've really been talking nonsense!" Lin Yu looked at the other party's unmoved appearance and was filled with mixed feelings.

The guard holding the chain was now filled with rage; clearly, Lin Yu's words had greatly provoked him.

"I've been guarding this Daoist priest's cave for over a hundred years, and I've never encountered a fellow as arrogant as you!"

"How dare this nobody give orders to me?!"

"Do you know that in the entire Netherworld Immortal Realm, the only person who can command me is Daoist Shouyang!"

Upon hearing the other party's resounding words, the black-robed high priest nearly collapsed in exasperation. He had already been silently mourning for the kid when he heard him arguing with Lin Yu earlier.

However, upon closer reflection, he realized that this was an unusual situation, as he needed someone's help. Therefore, the high priest in black robes stood obediently in place without saying a word.

Lin Yu's personality had become clear to him after these few days of interaction. He was polite first, then resorted to force. The fact that he was still standing here talking nicely to the guard with the chains meant that he had his purpose for today.

Ultimately, the two men came to discuss a problem with Daoist Shouyang Tao, not to fight.

Dealing with the guard with the chains was a piece of cake for Lin Yu Yulai.

It's not hard to imagine that even if Lin Yu wins, he won't have a good outcome after entering the Shouyang Daoist's residence.

No matter how useless he may seem, Daoist Shouyang was one of the last cultivators to remain from the previous era, so he must have some seniority in this Netherworld Immortal Realm.

Even though everyone knows he's a good-for-nothing, no one dares to offend him!

"Alas, if Daoist Shouyang hadn't spoken up willingly, it might have caused trouble!" the black-robed high priest thought to himself.

"If you won't listen to reason, you'll have to suffer the consequences. Since that's the case, I won't waste any more words with you." Lin Yu spoke slowly again.
