Yuan Yuxi, Wang Yixin and the other four each took a sword floating in front of them as their own Saint-level Magical Artifact.
"Alright, you've all stepped into Saint Sect strength now, I can finally relax." Lin Fei looked at the six of them and said.
Confidence also appeared on the faces of Yuan Yuxi and the other five. With Saint Sect strength, they already had a certain ability to survive on the Holy Dragon Continent.
From now on they wouldn't need Lin Fei's protection everywhere they went.
"Lin Fei, now that we've all broken through to Saint Sect, shouldn't we go to the Qin family in Panlong City and rescue Zimo, Xiao Xiao and the others?" At this mont, sothing occurred to Yuan Yuxi and indignation flashed in her eyes.
But Lin Fei said to them, "It's already been three days. I imagine Qin Fen has kept his word and the ti the Qin family agreed on to send Zimo, Xiao Xiao and the others over should be about up."
Ever since the Yuan family was wiped out and Lin Fei beca City Lord of Thousand Dragon City, Qin Fen and Qin Kai had been under Lin Fei's control, and Lin Fei had the Qin brothers contact the Qin family in Panlong City.
He ordered the Qin family to send Zimo, Xiao Xiao and the others to Thousand Dragon City within three days, otherwise they could co collect the corpses of the Qin brothers.
The Qin family had naturally agreed to send them.
And today happened to be the date the Qin family had promised to send people to Thousand Dragon City.
Lin Fei looked toward Leng Ying and said, "Go down to the Underground Palace and bring the Qin brothers up."
"Yes." Leng Ying answered, his body flickered and vanished, already leaving the courtyard. His speed was astonishing.
Yuan Yuxi, Wang Yixin and the other five won were also shocked by Leng Ying's strength; they hadn't expected a Saint Sect expert's movent speed to be this fast.
In just over ten minutes, swoosh, a gust of wind stirred in the courtyard as Leng Ying appeared again, a man in each hand.
The two n in his hands were Qin Fen and Qin Kai.
Leng Ying threw the two of them onto the ground. Qin Fen and Qin Kai fell, struggled to climb up, panic written all over their faces.
Because Lin Fei had sealed their ridians, they were completely unable to circulate their power, so at this mont they were basically as weak as ordinary mortals.
"Young Master Lin, since you want to see us, shouldn't you first unseal our ridians?" The mont Qin Fen saw Lin Fei, a fawning smile imdiately appeared on his face as he looked at Lin Fei and asked.
However, Lin Fei's expression remained cold as he said, "Qin Fen, today is the end of the three-day period we agreed on. If today your Qin family hasn't sent Zimo, Xiao Xiao, Yun Yue, Xiao Ling, Old Master Qin and Master Xiao over, then you two will explode and die."
When Qin Fen heard the four words "explode and die," his smile instantly froze and his face changed. It took him a while to co back to himself before he said, "Please rest assured, Young Master Lin! My father will definitely send your friends over safe and sound."
"I hope it's as you say, otherwise the Qin family can get ready to co collect your corpses." Lin Fei said.
Just then, footsteps sounded. A Cultivator walked in through the courtyard gate and said to Lin Fei, "City Lord, Young Master Qiu says he's going back to Ten Thousand Swords City. Before he leaves, he wants to have a drink with the City Lord."
Lin Fei's icy face suddenly softened, as if an iceberg had lted and spring had returned to the land. He said to this Cultivator, "Tell Young Master Qiu to wait for at the Wine Immortal Tower, I'll head over right away."
"Yes, City Lord." The Cultivator finished speaking and left the courtyard.
Lin Fei looked at Leng Ying and said, "Leng Ying, keep an eye on these two. I'll go see Young Master Qiu off first."
Ever since he'd t Qiu Qiming and beco friends with him, Lin Fei had kept Qiu Qiming at the City Lord's Mansion and entertained him well.
So when he heard Qiu Qiming was returning to Ten Thousand Swords City, Lin Fei naturally had to see him off.
Leng Ying responded, then carried the Qin brothers away and sent them back down to the Underground Palace.
Lin Fei had Yuan Yuxi and the others, as well as the three old masters, continue their Cultivation in the courtyard, while he left the courtyard to go see Qiu Qiming.
The Drunken Immortal Tower was a three-story pavilion inside the City Lord's Mansion, its architecture elegant and refined, facing a lotus pond within the mansion grounds.
These past few days Lin Fei had shared drinks with Qiu Qiming at the Drunken Immortal Tower several tis.
When Lin Fei arrived on the third floor of the Drunken Immortal Tower, he saw Qiu Qiming sitting at a table by the window. Qiu Qiming rose and greeted him with a smile, "Brother Lin, co quickly, I've already prepared the wine!"
Lin Fei saw wine and dishes on the table and walked over to sit down.
"Brother Lin, now that you've beco the lord of a city, you're already a man of success and fa on this Holy Dragon Continent. Let toast you and wish that you achieve great ambition and lofty deeds soon!" Qiu Qiming raised a bowl of wine, speaking from the heart with sincere feeling.
Lin Fei raised his own bowl and clinked it against Qiu Qiming's, smiling as he said, "Many thanks for your auspicious words, Brother Qiu. You really are going back to Ten Thousand Swords City?"
Qiu Qiming drained his bowl in one gulp, then said to Lin Fei, "Yeah, it's ti I went back to Ten Thousand Swords City. My family is there."
Lin Fei also finished his bowl of wine and said, "But Wan Jingxuan has already returned to Ten Thousand Swords City. I'm afraid you'll suffer his retaliation if you go back."
Qiu Qiming shook his head and smiled. "I won't. The city-wide grand competition in Ten Thousand Swords City is about to begin, and the City Lord is planning to have Wan Jingxuan, or his older brother Wan Jingyuan, take over as City Lord.
Right now he should be actively preparing for the city-wide competition, and he also needs my father's help to claim the City Lord's seat. So even if I go back, nothing will happen."
Seeing the confidence in Qiu Qiming's eyes, Lin Fei could only say, "I hope it's as you say. But if you're in any danger, contact imdiately."
He had already given his own cell phone number to Qiu Qiming, using of course the phone he'd snatched from Ouyang Stone.
Qiu Qiming nodded. "Alright, if anything happens I'll get in touch with you. Co, let's keep drinking. Who knows when we'll be able to drink together again after this ti."
Lin Fei said, "As long as I'm on this continent, we can sit down for a good drink anyti."
"Hahaha, then let's drink!"
"Drink!"
The sound of bowls clinking and their laughter rang through the pavilion.
Lin Fei and Qiu Qiming drank their fill.
An hour later, after drinking to his heart's content, Qiu Qiming bade Lin Fei farewell, "Brother Lin, until we et again!"
Lin Fei said, "Until we et again."
Qiu Qiming leaped out of the window of the Drunken Immortal Tower, tearing through the air as he flew off toward Ten Thousand Swords City.
Watching Qiu Qiming's figure streak away through the sky, Lin Fei gave an order, "Soone, co."
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.
Imdiately, four Cultivation experts in black, flying swords on their backs, rose from a hidden spot and landed on the high branches of a tall pine beside the Drunken Immortal Tower. They cupped their fists together toward Lin Fei and said in unison, "City Lord, what are your orders?"
"Follow Qiu Qiming to Ten Thousand Swords City and protect him in secret. If anything happens to him, notify at once." Lin Fei said to the four expert Guards of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Yes, City Lord." The four Guard experts answered, then turned into four streams of air and shot off into the sky.
Just then, a Cultivator hurried to the front of the Drunken Immortal Tower, dropped to one knee and cupped his fists toward Lin Fei upstairs as he reported, "City Lord, soone from the Qin family of Panlong City has arrived and requests an audience with the City Lord."
A glint flashed in Lin Fei's eyes as he said, "The Qin family's people have finally arrived."
