Capítulo 1674: Chapter 133: Soldiers’ Harassnt
Walking through the mountains and crossing the ridges, they finally reached a safe place after a few days.
The land was desolate. Lin Yifan wasn’t sure whether this group of virtuous won planned to live a pastoral life here or move to the small town for city living, so he asked, “Do you want to rebuild your ho here, or spend the rest of your life in a bustling place?”
This group of virtuous won had endured enough of being violated by bandits, and thus didn’t want to rebuild their ho in a remote area. However, the small town had its own drawbacks; although there were many people, there were also arrogant thugs and domineering clan offspring.
After thinking it over, they decided to rebuild their ho near the small town, at least to intimidate the bandits from invading.
Having an answer, Lin Yifan found it much easier to proceed, so he continued to lead the group of virtuous won onward.
A few days later, they arrived at a place a few kiloters from the small town.
After looking around, Lin Yifan found the place suitable, so he arranged for this group of virtuous won to rebuild their ho here.
With money cos labor, and with labor cos houses.
In the following days, Lin Yifan supervised the progress of the new ho construction, ensuring this group of holess, helpless virtuous won had houses to live in.
However, completing all of this took quite so ti, and he clearly didn’t have the leisure to stay here. So after a few days of supervising, he returned to the forest for cultivation.
He would co back again, but possibly in a week, a few weeks, a month, or several months. Therefore, this group of virtuous won had to fend for themselves and adapt to future life.
Before leaving, he gave a signal flare to this group of virtuous won, informing them that if they encountered danger, they could launch this to seek his help. Upon receiving the signal, he would imdiately rush over to support them.
With this signal flare in hand, this group of helpless virtuous won felt much more at ease.
Returning to the forest, Lin Yifan continued to search for powerful Spirit Beasts for cultivation, strengthening his skills.
Days passed one by one, and a month later, Lin Yifan, while cultivating, suddenly received the signal launched by the virtuous won.
He didn’t know what kind of danger this group of virtuous won had encountered, so he imdiately put aside his work and rushed to the small town.
Soon, he returned to the place of ho reconstruction.
At this ti, he saw a group of soldiers continuously demolishing the houses that the virtuous won almost completed. No matter how these virtuous won pleaded or tried to stop them, it was useless.
It was the first ti Lin Yifan encountered such injustice by officials, so he rushed over to stop them.
“Stop!”
Upon hearing this, the crowd looked over and found a young man. They angrily shouted, “Kid, buzz off.”
“Damn! Are you looking for trouble?”
Lin Yifan was furious and imdiately released his aura to intimidate this hateful group of soldiers.
The soldiers were startled to find him a Cultivator of the Superior Immortal Third Realm, but they had a small official of Superior Immortal Fourth Realm here, so they weren’t afraid.
“Kid! Coming out to uphold justice as a Superior Immortal Third Realm Cultivator, aren’t you a bit reckless?” the small official of Superior Immortal Fourth Realm asked.
“What did they do wrong? Why are you demolishing their houses?”
Lin Yifan just wanted the soldiers to give a reasonable explanation; otherwise, he was prepared to start a massacre.
“They built houses here without governnt approval, so shouldn’t they be demolished? Actually, if they built them, it would be fine. But they didn’t pay us any illegal construction fees; how are we supposed to report this to our superiors?” the small official of Superior Immortal Fourth Realm replied.
“So many people built houses around here, why didn’t you punish them?” Lin Yifan continued to question.
“They are civilians who have lived here for a long ti and pay taxes annually. Why should I punish them?”
“If you want money, we can give it to you, so why forcefully demolish?” Lin Yifan asked.
“Since they won’t give us money, we’ll demolish; it’s that simple,” the small official of Superior Immortal Fourth Realm replied.
“Why didn’t you give them money?” Lin Yifan asked the group of virtuous won.
“They’re asking for three million Silver Taels! Where can we find that much money for them?”
This group of virtuous won felt deeply wronged.
They wouldn’t have troubled Lin Yifan unless it was absolutely necessary; it was only because they had no other option that they resorted to this.
Lin Yifan roughly knew how much ill-gotten wealth the bandits from Kuishan had robbed, at most more than three million taels.
Giving three million taels to these soldiers left no money for building houses and even less for buying other living goods, so he understood why this group of virtuous won refused to give the soldiers illegal construction fees.
“Damn, they’re just a few people, and you charge them so much money?” Lin Yifan furiously questioned.
“No choice, that’s the price for building in a Gold zone,” the small official of Superior Immortal Fourth Realm responded.
“Simply shaless!”
“What? Don’t like it? Co hit , let’s see if you dare!”
The small official of Superior Immortal Fourth Realm was also provoked.
No Cultivator of Superior Immortal Third Realm had ever dared talk to him like this; Lin Yifan was the first, truly the first.
“Damn, looking for death!”
Lin Yifan was furious beyond asure, deciding to teach this small official of Superior Immortal Fourth Realm a lesson.
The next mont, he charged forward, raised his fist, and swung.
The small official of Superior Immortal Fourth Realm was startled—not because Lin Yifan dared to make a move, but because Lin Yifan’s action was too fast, he simply couldn’t react.
When he realized Lin Yifan was right in front of him, it was already too late to counterattack, so he could only endure Lin Yifan’s punch.
“Bang!”
Instantly, he was knocked to the ground, severely injured.
Seeing this situation, the soldiers quickly prepared for battle.
This young man could reach the officer’s side easily; his skills must be extraordinary, they had to treat him seriously.
“Centurion, are you alright?”
A soldier helped up the severely injured small official of Superior Immortal Fourth Realm and asked with concern.
“Why are you helping ? Didn’t you see I got hit? Hurry up! Useless bunch!”
This centurion couldn’t help but curse loudly, utterly furious.
Usually, when the leader is attacked, followers protect them; but this bunch, instead of attacking the aggressor, ca over to express concern, utterly useless.
The order was given, and despite their fear, the soldiers had no choice but to charge forward and encircle Lin Yifan.
Lin Yifan fought fiercely, beating up this hateful group of soldiers.
He wasn’t ruthless, for these soldiers hadn’t crossed the line of moral depravity, so he was sowhat rciful. However, this group of soldiers wouldn’t recover for a year or half a year.
“Bang bang bang!”
In less than a minute, these shrimp soldiers and crab generals were knocked to the ground, defeated.
