535: Chapter 555: The Strongest in the Nine States _1 535: Chapter 555: The Strongest in the Nine States _1 “What’s in the apology gifts?”
Lin Chen couldn’t discuss this matter with Feng Yazhen, so he had to change the subject quickly.
After all, Feng Yazhen was his aunt and an elder.
Lin Chen opened the sandalwood box.
There were not many things in the box, four small boxes sealed with wax, and an exquisitely crafted token.
Feng Yazhen saw the disapproval on Lin Chen’s face and stopped teasing her.
She explained: “Two Dragon and Tiger Pills, one Great Restoration Pill, and an invitation token from the Jiuzhou Association.”
Lin Chen’s eyes lit up; all these items were valuable.
Although the Dragon and Tiger Pill wasn’t very useful for Innate Grandmasters, it was beneficial for Great Grandmasters to improve their strength.
It was difficult to refine and extrely rare.
Zhang Yun of the Shenyun Sect could only take out one pill, the entire Wang Family could only take out three pills, and now the Liu Family could only take out two.
This shows how precious it was.
As a doctor, Lin Chen naturally understood the effects of the Great Restoration Pill.
It was a top-grade elixir for treating internal injuries.
It was said that as long as one had a breath left, it could keep them alive.
For lighter internal injuries, it was effective in healing imdiately.
Lin Chen’s gaze fell on a golden token.
He asked softly, “The Jiuzhou Association, what is it?
A conference or an organization?”
Feng Yazhen explained: “It’s an organization created by Ji Yusheng, the strongest in Kyushu.
There aren’t many mbers, but they must et two criteria: First, they must be an Innate Great Grandmaster with powerful strength.
Second, they must have considerable influence within a certain region.”
Lin Chen blinked: “Uncrowned kings?”
Feng Yazhen smiled: “That’s the idea.
It’s said that the Jiuzhou Association divided the world into nine regions, and in each region, they would choose three formal mbers and three reserve mbers.
In total, there are fifty-five mbers including Ji Yusheng.”
Lin Chen asked curiously: “Every organization has a purpose or ideology.
What’s the ideology of the Jiuzhou Association?”
Feng Yazhen replied: “To punish evildoers and maintain peace.”
Lin Chen snorted: “There are so many evildoers in the world.
Will they kill them all one by one?
Moreover, in the cultivation world, with so many feuds and disputes, who can be considered an evildoer?
And who are they to decide?”
Feng Yazhen didn’t laugh: “They naturally don’t bother with the feuds and disputes in the cultivation world.
After all, there are always conflicts wherever there are people.
But if there are extrely evil and powerful people doing crazy things, they will intervene.
Not all Innate Grandmasters are good people.
When one obtains imnse power, it’s hard to avoid becoming insatiable and doing insane things.”
Lin Chen asked, “Are there any precedents?”
“Quite a few.”
Feng Yazhen casually cited several examples of insane evildoers who were Innate Grandmasters and were killed by the Jiuzhou Association: “I believe in Ji Yusheng’s original intention.
The Jiuzhou Association doesn’t belong to any power, but it’s like a sword hanging over the heads of all evildoers, making them afraid.”
Lin Chen didn’t comnt.
He flipped the token in his hand and asked, “What does this invitation token an?”
Feng Yazhen explained: “The Jiuzhou Association holds a gathering once a year.
Those who receive an invitation token can attend, listen in, and when there is a vacancy among the Association’s mbers, so attendees will be invited to fill the gap, maintaining the total number of fifty-five mbers.”
Lin Chen asked curiously: “If the Liu Family received an invitation and gave the token, can I attend the gathering?”
“Yes.”
Feng Yazhen answered, “As long as you are an Innate Grandmaster and have an invitation token, you can attend.
The Jiuzhou Association isn’t considered mysterious, as most families know about it.
Moreover, the Jiuzhou Association invites so people to attend the gathering every year as a way of expanding its influence.”
Lin Chen flipped the token and found a date and a phone number on the back: “Is this the date of the eting?
It’s only a few days away.”
Feng Yazhen nodded: “Yes, you can call to get the specific eting location and related matters.
Just follow the procedures.”
Lin Chen was not very interested, so he looked up and asked, “Are you interested in attending?”
Feng Yazhen shook her head: “I don’t want to reveal my strength.”
Lin Chen casually tossed the token into the box: “I’m not interested either.”
Feng Yazhen asked curiously: “Don’t you want to et Ji Yusheng, the strongest in Kyushu?”
Lin Chen grinned: “No, what if he doesn’t like and calls an evildoer?
With a slap, he would kill , and I wouldn’t be able to justify myself.”
Feng Yazhen couldn’t help but laugh: “How could you be an evildoer?”
Lin Chen winked: “Didn’t they all call the ‘professional extinguisher of families’?
Along the way, I’ve destroyed many families.
I already eradicated two families in Xijing, and the next one is the Five Dragon Sect…”
Feng Yazhen laughed: “That’s normal retaliation.
You didn’t recklessly kill ordinary people or cross the line.
This doesn’t make you an evildoer.
If you truly annihilated entire families, slaughtering everyone, including ordinary people, then for the Jiuzhou Association, you would truly be an evildoer who must be killed…”
