Jialan Empire, Celestial Feather City
When Katrina appeared at the Linlang Auction with the True Divine Body, the news spread like wildfire as the auction ended.
This event caused unprecedented turmoil in Celestial Feather City.
It's worth noting that in the entire vast Jialan Empire, with its hundreds of millions of citizens, there is only one Divine Venerable at Tier Nine stationed at the Imperial Capital.
On the Nine Nether Continent, Tier Nine Divine Level is nearly the known limit that humans can reach.
anwhile.
In the Nine Nether Continent, with nearly ten billion people, those who can reach Tier Nine within their lifeti are few and far between.
Divine Venerable is a respectful title for mages who reach Tier Nine Divine Level.
While sword masters who practice Fighting Qi and reach Tier Nine Divine Level are called Divine Kings.
On the Nine Nether Continent, the number of Divine Kings far exceeds Divine Venerables.
Simply because the threshold for practicing Fighting Qi and the requirents for talent are significantly lower than those for practicing magic.
In the history of Nine Nether Continent, for every three Tier Nine Divine Kings born, only one Tier Nine Divine Venerable erges.
However, in terms of strength.
The impact one Divine Venerable can have cannot be matched by one or two Divine Kings.
In the magic system, the power of a Tier Nine Forbidden Curse is enough to obliterate a city.
The sheer terror of it is evident.
Among these Divine Venerables, the known female Divine Venerable is the current President of the Mage Guild.
Clearly, the one who suddenly appeared at the Linlang Auction was not her.
Regarding the sudden ergence of this Divine Venerable, curiosity filled everyone's hearts, and speculation about Lin Yi's identity was rampant.
Among the many speculations, one was most widely accepted.
That is:
Lin Yi's true identity is likely the heir of a hidden family.
This appearance is rely a trial by his family.
So even speculate whether Lin Yi's appearance is connected to the impending election of the Saint Heir by the Jialan Imperial Capital's Church.
...
At this mont, the busiest place in Celestial Feather City is undoubtedly Linlang Pavilion.
In the guest reception hall of Linlang Pavilion, it is crowded with people.
The most noticeable is a figure in a purple robe, the magnificently dressed City Lord, Huo Zhenxiong.
Also present are the heads of the city's three great families and so renowned leaders of powerful factions.
The rcenary Corps leader, who beca the main character at the auction, is prominently among them.
These people didn't definitely gather here just to purchase items.
Ling Yuwei looked at the large group of people, furrowed her brows tightly, and said:
"I've made it very clear already."
"Lin Yi needs rest now, so please co back at another ti."
However, Huo Zhenxiong ignored Ling Yuwei's words, laughing lightly and saying:
"There might have been so unnecessary misunderstandings between Lin Yi and at today's auction."
"The incident happened way too suddenly earlier, and we couldn't properly clear up those misunderstandings."
"I'm here this ti hoping to sincerely apologize to Lin Yi and also to fulfill my duties as the City Lord."
"I couldn't possibly neglect Lin Yi in Celestial Feather City."
How could Huo Zhenxiong be a City Lord?
Previously humiliated at the auction by Katrina, he now acts as if nothing happened.
Those unaware of the incident might even think he and Lin Yi have a profound friendship.
But compared to him, Xiao Family's Clan Leader Xiao Mo is not much different.
Even after being intimidated by Lin Yi, Xiao Mo now acts as if nothing happened, echoing nearby:
"The City Lord is right."
"Lin Yi traveled such a long distance to Celestial Feather City; he shouldn't leave with a bad impression due to so unpleasantness."
"I bear undeniable responsibility for this."
"So I hope to see if Lin Yi needs any help, my Xiao Family will do everything possible to help Lin Yi solve difficulties."
To sit in the position of a family head, one must have so skill.
However, after Lin Yi demonstrated his strength, there's no need for Katrina, the Divine Venerable, to act.
In Xiao Mo's opinion, Lin Yi alone is enough to destroy the Xiao Family.
Encountering such a person, even if unwilling, for the Xiao Family's survival, Xiao Mo must step forward to foster goodwill.
Earlier at the auction, the Duan Family's Clan Leader did not appear.
Upon hearing about the incident, he had to bring senior mbers of the Duan Family over.
The Liu Family was no exception.
The ability to gather the city's three families in such a short ti could only be attributed to the terror of the Divine Venerable behind Lin Yi.
Besides these top forces of Celestial Feather City, a large number of elite socialites also gathered outside.
They similarly hope to seize this opportunity to see if they can forge a connection with the Divine Venerable's family.
Even if they can't form bonds, getting familiar with faces is a rare fortune worthy of boasting for a lifeti for them.
Ling Yuwei, despite her inner dissatisfaction, had no authority to expel everyone.
Seeing the group showing no sign of leaving, Ling Yuwei could only helplessly turn back to the backyard.
At this mont.
The door to Lin Yi's room suddenly opened, prompting Ling Yuwei and the gray-robed elder standing guard outside to rush forward.
Whether Ling Yuwei's worried expression is genuine or not is unknown.
As soon as Lin Yi appeared, she hurriedly inquired:
"How is she, is she alright?"
She naturally referred to the Elental Spirit.
Ling Yuwei was well aware of the Elental Spirit's condition.
If Linlang Pavilion had a solution, they wouldn't have auctioned such an ailing Elental Spirit.
Precisely because it was unsolvable, Ling Yuwei understood the dire situation of the Elental Spirit.
Before the Elental Spirit took the stage, they had spent a 'fortune' having her take the [High Life Potion] brought by Lin Yi!
And even then, it showed no improvent.
Under ordinary circumstances, she wouldn't ask such pointless questions.
But with the appearance of Katrina, the mysterious Divine Venerable, accompanied by Lin Yi's newfound enigma.
Rembering Lin Yi possessed a large quantity of [High Life Potions], Ling Yuwei had reason to believe.
Considering Lin Yi's eagerness to obtain the Elental Spirit, he must have a way to save it.
However, Lin Yi did not answer Ling Yuwei's question, instead saying sothing that left her astonished:
"I borrowed a bed from you, Pavilion Master Ling; let know if any paynt is needed."
Ling Yuwei was montarily stunned by his words:
"What?"
...
"My bed?"
As Ling Yuwei looked at the vacant spot where the bed was, her lips slightly parted:
"It…"
The gray-robed elder who had co in with them was also shocked.
They clearly hadn't expected Lin Yi to take a fancy to their bed!
The gray-robed elder couldn't help but wonder:
Could it be that wasn't an ordinary bed?
After the initial shock and astonishnt subsided, Ling Yuwei realized imdiately.
She didn't ask Lin Yi where the bed went or what he did with it, instead she chuckled and said:
"It's just a bed."
"Since Lin Yi likes it, you can have it as a gift."
It's rely an ordinary bed.
If this act leaves a favorable impression on this distinguished gentleman, it already far exceeds the bed's inherent value.
As the Pavilion Master of Linlang Pavilion, Ling Yuwei understands such trade-offs well.
Lin Yi, hearing this, didn't stand on ceremony and directly said:
"Thank you, then."
Then Ling Yuwei asked:
"Might I know what Lin Yi plans to do next?"
"If Lin Yi needs anything, feel free to ask."
"Linlang Pavilion has everything."
Lin Yi pondered for a mont and said:
"How can I quickly reach Jialan Imperial Capital?"
Ling Yuwei, hearing this, was taken aback, covering her mouth in surprise as she gazed at Lin Yi:
"Are you going to participate in the Church's Divine Son election?"
Facing the shocked expression of the two, Lin Yi confidently smiled:
"Is it not possible?"
