On the 60th birthday of the system, my son’s engagement was annulled!

Wang Zhongpeng and his group of deacons ultimately returned empty-handed.

"Brother, why don't we take down that guy? He's only at the second or third tribulation Golden Immortal realm at most. With our strength, we can easily take him down!"

One of the fourth-stage Golden Immortals following Wang Zhongpeng was furious; Lin Xuan's arrogance infuriated him.

"Yeah, that bastard is incredibly arrogant, he doesn't even respect us!"

"I really wanted to go up there and tear that guy in two!"

The others expressed their dissatisfaction.

Wang Zhongpeng simply shook his head.

"This Lin Xuan has already come into the sights of the department head and the Divine Dragon Palace. In addition, his arrogance today is somewhat abnormal. I suspect that he has someone backing him now."

Wang Zhongpeng's words suddenly silenced the group of people who were still grumbling.

They really hadn't thought of that.

"Big brother, who do you think is standing behind him?"

"My current guess is that it might be our newly appointed hall master."

Wang Zhongpeng responded in a low voice, afraid that Li Hongyi would hear him.

The main reason is that Li Hongyi defeated several veteran hall masters as soon as she entered the Eight Immortal Palace, demonstrating amazing strength. Although she did not attack them, they would be completely unable to resist if she did.

"Could it be that the hall master is about to make a move against us deacons?!"

The other deacons felt a chill run down their spines. If that were the case, they would likely be in deep trouble.

"What are you panicking about? I'm still right here!"

Seeing the group of guys looking flustered, Wang Zhongpeng angrily asked a question.

Even if the sky falls, the tall ones should hold it up first.

The group quickly regained their composure; after all, they were all at the Golden Immortal realm, and their mentality was extremely stable.

"It's alright. Everyone has connections. Tomorrow I'll go to the Li Department and pay a visit to some of the officials there. He has connections, and so do I!"

After Wang Zhongpeng finished speaking, his figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

Several deacons who followed Wang Zhongpeng were relieved to hear what he said. They knew a little about Wang Zhongpeng's connections within the Li Department and he did indeed have influence.

Inside the Hall of Enforcement, Wu Zong's body was sealed off, and he was temporarily detained until he was executed in three days.

As for the Enforcement Hall, there are currently no people who have registered.

The main reason is that Lin Xuan offended Wang Zhongpeng, a local tyrant, right from the start. Most people in the Holy Flame Hall didn't dare to offend Wang Zhongpeng, so naturally they didn't dare to join the Law Enforcement Hall.

"Hmph! Some of those guys were even former members of the Enforcement Hall who left. Now that our Enforcement Hall has regrouped, those guys still refuse to come back!"

Chen Er waited for a long time but no one came to register for the Enforcement Hall, and he was furious.

"Why are you so angry? We're just hiring. If we don't have enough people, we'll rely on ourselves. I never thought I could do anything to a few people."

Lin Xuan put his hands behind his back and slowly walked into the courtyard.

"Greetings, Hall Master!"

Chen Er and the others immediately stood up and bowed respectfully to Lin Xuan.

At this moment, Chen Er and the other three admired Lin Xuan greatly and even worshipped him from the bottom of their hearts.

He instantly killed a second-stage Golden Immortal steward and even dared to directly challenge Wang Zhongpeng, a veteran steward at the eighth-stage Golden Immortal realm. He was truly incredibly cool.

"Master, including you, the Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, there are only five people in total."

Chen Er glanced at Lin Xuan, then turned back to look at Chu Ya and the other two.

"It's alright. Since that's the case, then you all should be rewarded. Let's start with you, Chen Er. Everyone, please reintroduce yourselves."

Lin Xuan pointed at Chen Er and said with a smile.

"Reporting to the Hall Master, this disciple Chen Er is currently a Third Tribulation Celestial Immortal, an inner disciple of the Sacred Flame Hall of the Eight Immortal Palaces, and a member of the Enforcement Hall."

"Reporting to the Hall Master, this disciple is Chu Ya, currently a Ninth Tribulation Earth Immortal, an inner disciple of the Sacred Flame Hall of the Eight Immortal Palaces."

"Reporting to the Hall Master, this disciple Ye Hua is currently an Eighth Tribulation Earth Immortal, an inner disciple of the Sacred Flame Hall of the Eight Immortal Palaces."

"Reporting to the Hall Master, disciple Liu Ming is currently an Eighth Tribulation Earth Immortal, an inner disciple of the Sacred Flame Hall of the Eight Immortal Palaces."

The four people introduced themselves in turn.

“You are only an inner disciple, but you have already reached the Three Tribulations Celestial Immortal Realm.”

Lin Xuan looked at Chen Er with some confusion.

Chen Er smiled helplessly.

"Master, you are unaware of the true extent of this. The number of core disciple slots is already very limited, and then..."

"And then, because Brother Er spoke up for justice, he was targeted and that's why he didn't get promoted to a core disciple!" Chu Ya interrupted Chen Er before he could finish speaking, her voice filled with anger.

"It seems that it's not easy to survive in this Eight Steps Immortal Palace."

Lin Xuan smiled upon hearing this, thinking that this was probably the only reason; otherwise, someone at the Third Tribulation Celestial Immortal Realm would have already been promoted to a core disciple.

No matter where you are, you can't escape the word "background".

Chen Er possesses exceptional talent and combat prowess, making him a top-tier prodigy even among the many geniuses in the Eight Immortal Palaces. However, he suffered unfair treatment due to offending other influential figures.

Those in higher positions may know about this, but they simply don't care.

After all, Chen Er could only be considered a decent prodigy; to those Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors, he was nothing more than an insignificant ant.

“As I said, you have achieved results this time, so naturally I will reward you.”

Lin Xuan casually raised his hand, and a bright light appeared in front of each person.

When Chen Er and his companions received their reward, they were almost speechless with astonishment when they saw what it was.

The most precious reward in Chen Er's hand was actually a Celestial-grade Breakthrough Pill.

This elixir is extremely precious. Although it only works on those in the Celestial Immortal realm, its value is no less than that of the Golden Immortal Pill, and it is even something that is extremely rare and hard to come by.

"Chen Er thanks the Hall Master for bestowing the pill!"

Chen Er immediately knelt down before Lin Xuan. This single pill could save Chen Er a thousand years of arduous cultivation; how could he not be excited?
As for Chu Ya and the other two, they were not bad either, especially Chu Ya, who received a celestial fruit as a reward from Lin Xuan, which would greatly benefit her breakthrough to the Celestial Immortal Realm later on.

What Liu Ming and Ye Hua obtained were treasures they never even dared to dream of.

At this moment, the four people immediately adopted a more respectful and obedient attitude towards Lin Xuan.

This was exactly the effect Lin Xuan wanted. As for the things he had brought out, they were of little use to him.

"Alright, from now on, our Enforcement Hall must be strict with ourselves and treat everyone in the Holy Flame Hall equally. If anyone dares to disobey, we can execute them first and report later!"

A glint flashed in Lin Xuan's eyes, and his tone was extremely domineering.

Chen Er and his three companions were incredibly excited; the time had finally come for them to show their skills.

"What if some people stronger than us don't obey?"

Liu Ming scratched the back of his head and asked.

"Then tell this hall master that he will ensure the prestige of the Holy Flame Hall's Enforcement Division is etched into the very bones of everyone." "Hall Master is mighty!"

The four people immediately bowed again.

"Deacon Lin, I wonder if I could join the Enforcement Hall?"

Old Zheng suddenly spoke up.

Lin Xuan was slightly taken aback and looked at Old Zheng beside him with some curiosity.

Lin Xuan didn't know much about Lao Zheng, but he was certain that Lao Zheng was probably the kind of person who was invisible and whose motto was to protect himself. It was surprising that someone like that would choose to join his Enforcement Hall.

You should know that the Enforcement Hall has now become the target of everyone's criticism, and one wrong move could lead to utter ruin.

Chen Er and the other three had been forced onto the ship, so they were all determined to run away at the worst possible outcome.

But Lao Zheng is different from them.

"Mr. Zheng, are you really going to join us?!"

Chen Er and his companions were overjoyed. Although Zheng Qing was the weakest among the deacons of the Holy Flame Hall, he was still a genuine Golden Immortal Realm expert. His joining their Enforcement Hall would not only strengthen the hall's power but also further enhance its prestige.

"I just don't know if the Hall Master will be able to accept an old man like me."

Zheng Qing bowed respectfully to Lin Xuan and said with a smile.

Lin Xuan smiled slightly: "Of course I welcome anyone who wants to join our Enforcement Hall. Old Zheng, you won't be disappointed."

Lin Xuan walked over to Lao Zheng and patted him on the shoulder.

At this point, Lin Xuan had a general idea of ​​why Lao Zheng had joined the Law Enforcement Hall.

Old Zheng didn't come for the Enforcement Hall, but for himself.

Zheng Qing, who has lived for nearly a million years, has been stuck at the Second Tribulation Golden Immortal Realm. If this continues, the Life-Extending Tribulation will kill Zheng Qing without a burial place. Now, Old Zheng is gambling that following Lin Xuan will allow him to advance further.

"Thank you, Deacon Lin. Oh no, thank you, Hall Master. Even my old bones can still do something for the Enforcement Hall."

Zheng Qing was somewhat excited and bowed deeply to Lin Xuan.

"As for the recruitment, Lao Zheng, you and Chu Ya will be in charge together. Remember, you must carefully screen people and not recruit just any Tom, Dick, or Harry into our Enforcement Hall."

"Yes, Master, I will definitely keep a strict eye on things."

Chu Ya was very excited. The important task of recruiting talents had actually been entrusted to her, which meant that the hall master trusted her.

Lin Xuan really had no choice. The main reason was that there were only a few people in the Enforcement Hall. Chu Ya was a woman, so she was a little more sensitive, and the way she showed herself was also more subtle.

“I will be going into seclusion for a period of time, which may be as short as ten days or as long as a month or two. During this time, you, Deacon Zheng, will be in charge of the affairs of the Enforcement Hall.”

"Yes, Master, please go into seclusion without worry. I will do my best."

Zheng Qing responded to Lin Xuan very solemnly.

Lin Xuan nodded slightly, and with a spatial fluctuation, he disappeared from the spot.

Even Old Zheng, a Golden Immortal, couldn't sense any trace of Lin Xuan's disappearance, which made him even more certain of Lin Xuan's abilities.

A Golden Immortal realm expert in the space system, with a mysterious background, is no ordinary person. We need to make sure we can latch onto this powerful figure.

Lin Xuan left the Holy Flame Hall and headed towards the Profound Moon Hall.

The overall strength of Xuan Yue Hall is no weaker than that of Sheng Yan Hall, and Xuan Yue Hall is more disciplined than Sheng Yan Hall, mainly because its leader, Li Qingyue, is a person who cannot tolerate any injustice.

"Master Li, where are Qingyi and Xiaoyue?"

Lin Xuan entered Xuan Yue Hall and went straight to Li Qingyue's residence.

Li Qingyue didn't know why, but she felt from the bottom of her heart that Lin Xuan was a reliable person.

"You two really missed each other; the two of them went to the Holy Flame Hall to look for you."

Li Qingyue said with a smile.

Lin Xuan chuckled to himself, surprised that they had managed to avoid each other.

"You can go back and chase after them; it might not be long."

Li Qingyue smiled and pointed Lin Xuan in a direction.

Lin Xuan shook his head.

"Never mind, I'm about to go into seclusion. I only came here to see you."

"Oh? You've made a breakthrough?"

Li Qingyue's eyes lit up as she sized up Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan didn't hide anything and nodded with a smile.

"Yes, there has indeed been a breakthrough. The main reason is that the energy on those eight immortal towers is too abundant. The source energy I consumed is probably equivalent to my thousands of years of hard cultivation."

Lin Xuan felt an itch to try his luck again when he thought of the essence of the Eight Immortal Towers.

Li Qingyue looked at Lin Xuan with some admiration.

"Yes, that's true. Although those eight immortal towers were just projections back then, their source energy was still quite good for Golden Immortals. Once you climb the main tower, you'll know just how pure the true source energy can be."

Lin Xuan became interested upon hearing this, and after boarding the projection of the eight immortal towers, he developed a great interest in them.

"Master Li, I'd like to try out those Eight Immortal Towers. How can I do that?"

"You are now a registered steward of the Eight Immortal Palaces. You have the authority to ascend the tower once every ten years. And since you have just entered the steward position, you now have one opportunity to ascend the tower."

"Is that so? Then I'll give it a try after I finish my seclusion."

Lin Xuan grinned, longing for the Eight Immortal Towers and wanting to know where his limits lay.

Li Qingyue shared the same thought as Lin Xuan; she also wanted to know where Lin Xuan's limits lay.

Lin Xuan's ascension to the top of the Eight Immortal Palace projections already surpasses the qualifications of an ordinary Immortal Emperor. Whether he can attain the status of an Immortal Venerable is hard to say.

However, if Lin Xuan really reaches the level of an Immortal Venerable on the 900th floor of the main tower, then the palace masters of the Divine Dragon Palace will all come out to snatch him away.

The Eight Immortal Palaces haven't produced an Immortal Venerable for millions of years. Although they've always coveted the title of a super sect, the lack of a genuine Immortal Venerable to preside over the palaces has diminished their influence and appeal.

"I hope you can successfully reach the 900th floor."

Li Qingyue suddenly spoke up.

"Nine hundred floors?"

Lin Xuan smiled faintly and didn't say much. The nine hundred floors were just a process, not a result, and certainly not Lin Xuan's end.

"I'm going into seclusion. I hope Hall Master Li can pass on this message to Qingyi and Xiaoyue."

"Don't worry, I'll let them know for you."

Lin Xuan nodded slightly and disappeared from the spot.

"Such exquisite spatial power, even I can hardly grasp it. No wonder the two sisters are so enamored with you."

Li Qingyue gained a deeper understanding of Lin Xuan's mysterious nature. (End of Chapter)
