Chapter 878 Mission Assignment: Departure to Wind Silver Valley

one year later.

Lin Xuan looked up at the sky, his power was rapidly increasing, and the sixth tribulation golden immortal realm was a natural progression.

A life with cheat codes is truly different. From the Ninth Tribulation Celestial Realm to now, Lin Xuan's advancement speed is like riding a rocket, it couldn't be easier.

"Lin Xuan, traces of the evil race have been discovered in Wind Silver Valley. You will lead the team this time."

Li Hongyi and Lin Xuan sat facing each other.

Lin Xuan was somewhat surprised by Li Hongyi's words.

"I am the head of the Enforcement Hall, why should I personally lead the team?"

Lin Xuan's question is quite normal. Generally speaking, the people in the Enforcement Hall are mainly responsible for coordinating internal law enforcement and rarely send out people from the Enforcement Hall to carry out missions.

After all, the people from the Enforcement Hall have all left, so who will be in charge of the rules within the sect?
"why me?"

Lin Xuan smiled faintly and did not refuse.

"It's not my idea, it's the sect's idea, and it's not just you, but all the deacons who were promoted to deacons in the same batch. This time, you are the ones who will investigate the reason."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly. His keen mind made him think of many things. Could this be a trap set for him?

Although it's not good to speculate about the sect, one should always be wary of others. Besides, Lin Xuan doesn't have much affection for the Eight Immortal Palace, and the Eight Immortal Palace feels the same way about Lin Xuan.

"I understand. Since the sect has made this arrangement, how can I refuse?"

Lin Xuan picked up the tea and drank it all in one gulp.

After a moment of silence, Li Hongyi suddenly spoke:
"If you don't want to go, I can have the head of the department remove your name."

Lin Xuan laughed upon hearing this. Throughout the year, Lin Xuan would frequently visit Li Hongyi's cultivation place, disturbing her cultivation under various pretexts.

For the first six months, Li Hongyi was driven crazy by Lin Xuan, and even attacked him, causing him to be seriously injured and cough up blood.

However, as time went on, Li Hongyi gradually got used to it and simply stopped her seclusion. Surprisingly, the two of them became quite familiar with each other under these circumstances.

"I don't know why, but I always feel that I am somewhat familiar with you, but I don't have any memory of you."

Seeing that Lin Xuan was not speaking and was just staring straight at her, Li Hongyi explained somewhat embarrassedly.

"Yes, as I said, we already knew each other in a Great Wilderness Empire in a world called Little Tianyuan."

"The Great Wilderness Empire..."

Li Hongyi murmured these four words, her eyebrows furrowed, and after a long while she let out a long sigh.

"I'm somewhat familiar with this name, but I can't remember where it is or what it looks like."

The more Li Hongyi interacted with Lin Xuan, the more irritable she became.

Initially, she was only focused on cultivation. Her memories were filled with various cultivation methods. The feeling of being ruthless and without desire bound Li Hongyi's originally ardent heart.

But now Lin Xuan is trying to awaken Li Hongyi's memories little by little.

Lin Xuan looked at Li Hongyi for a while, and couldn't help but feel happy. It seemed that his efforts over the past year had not been in vain, as the effect of Li Hongyi's Supreme Forgetfulness Technique was greatly reduced.

If this continues, Lin Xuan is confident that he can bring back all of Li Hongyi's memories.

"Go ahead, it's alright. Since the sect has already given instructions and all the other stewards are going, it would be inappropriate for me to go against the grain."

Lin Xuan rejected Li Hongyi's suggestion. After all, he had already offended the Second Master of the Divine Dragon Palace. If he disobeyed the imperial decree again this time, who would know what the Second Master was planning to do?

Of course, Lin Xuan also had to be fully prepared. This trip to the so-called Wind Silver Valley to investigate the traces of the evil race was very likely a false message. The mastermind behind this was probably there for him, and for the Heavenly Sword in his possession.

However, Lin Xuan felt something was amiss. After all, the Heavenly Sword was far too conspicuous, and even if the person behind it obtained it, they wouldn't dare to use it lightly.

After all, if Lin Xuan dies, the next owner of the Tianshuo Divine Sword will most likely be the one who killed Lin Xuan.

"Just be careful in everything you do. This investigation of the evil race by Fengyin Valley is most likely just a formality. But I feel that something is not right. After all, the team this time is a bit strange. Most of you new deacons are Golden Immortals at the first or second tribulation stage. In the past, when deacons went out on missions, there would be several old deacons leading the team."

At this point, Li Hongyi was learning more and more about the layout of the Eight Immortal Palaces and some of its internal affairs.

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan felt even more certain that this trip to Fengyin Valley would not be so easy.

"Okay, don't worry, I'll be careful."

Li Hongyi frowned again, her gaze towards Lin Xuan somewhat unfriendly.

"I'm not worried about you, I'm just giving you a heads-up."

Got it!
The Supreme Forgetfulness Technique within Li Hongyi's body has started acting up again, and Li Hongyi has once again become that ruthless cultivation expert who doesn't recognize her own family.

"Alright, alright, Master, I'll take my leave now and go back to prepare."

Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Xuan bid farewell to Li Hongyi and left her courtyard.

After Lin Xuan left, Li Hongyi's originally cold and indifferent eyes gradually softened. She lowered her head and looked at the tea in her hands. The tea reflected Li Hongyi's beautiful appearance and her lovely eyes.

After leaving the Hall Master's residence, Lin Xuan returned to the Enforcement Hall.

“Master, these days, the Enforcement Hall has hardly had anything to do, mostly just some trivial matters.”

Chen Er reported the recent situation to Lin Xuan.

"Let's gather everyone together, I have something to tell you."

Lin Xuan waved his hand.

Upon hearing this, Chen Er immediately went down to inform them.

Soon, nearly a hundred people from the Enforcement Hall had gathered together.

The Enforcement Hall within the Holy Flame Hall is now teeming with talent, and because of Lin Xuan's formidable reputation, most people dare not act recklessly within the Holy Flame Hall. After all, the deacons in front of the Enforcement Hall are still imprisoned in the spatial cage.

Those who didn't believe in the evil spirits also received the same treatment. One guy who insulted the Enforcement Hall was even executed on the spot. The key point is that the Hall Master had already tacitly approved the Enforcement Hall's power, which allowed it to hold the power of life and death!

This makes many people still somewhat afraid of the Enforcement Hall, and they dare not offend anyone else.

"This time, due to the wishes of the sect's higher-ups, I, the Hall Master, will be going out on a mission. During my absence, you will each perform your duties. If there are any major problems that you cannot handle, go to the Hall Master for justice."

"Yes, Hall Master!"

Everyone responded to Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan looked at the scene with great satisfaction. The Law Enforcement Hall was growing stronger every day, and many of these people only listened to Lin Xuan and did not know the Hall Master or the sect.

If Lin Xuan were to leave the Eight Immortal Palace at this time, many of these people would choose to follow in his footsteps.

However, Lin Xuan will not leave the Eight Immortal Palace. He is currently enjoying himself immensely in the Eight Immortal Palace. Not only does he receive a large amount of resources every month, but he can also use the resources issued by the sect to cultivate his own people, achieving two goals at once.

"Master, why is it you who is going to carry out the mission this time? I feel there is something wrong."

After everyone dispersed, Old Zheng approached Lin Xuan, his brows furrowed, and said, "Tell me your thoughts?"

Lin Xuan directly told Old Zheng to speak first.

Old Zheng took a deep breath, looked around, and finally whispered, "Master, you possess the Heavenly Sword of the Heavenly Immortal Venerable. I'm afraid that some department head or palace master has designs on your Heavenly Sword."

Old Zheng really has to say that, to put it bluntly, this kind of behavior is an insult to all the powerful members of the Eight Immortal Palaces.

Of course, Lao Zheng now basically follows Lin Xuan's lead. It was also because of Lin Xuan that Lao Zheng was able to break through the second tribulation Golden Immortal realm that had hindered him for many years, safely pass through the third tribulation, and become a third tribulation Golden Immortal.

"Yes, I've noticed that too. I'll have a way to deal with it when the time comes."

Lin Xuan said seriously.

“Master, if someone is indeed setting a trap for you, and is at the Immortal Emperor level, then I think it's a bit suspicious. But I'm quite familiar with Wind Silver Valley. Here's a map of Wind Silver Valley. Inside Wind Silver Valley, there's a Demon Emperor sleeping!”

Old Zheng took out an extremely ancient map from his storage ring.

Lin Xuan looked at Lao Zheng with some surprise, not expecting that Lao Zheng had such a trick up his sleeve.

Lin Xuan took the map, which showed the detailed route to Wind Silver Valley, and many places inside Wind Silver Valley were marked.

"Master, Fengyin Valley is a very mysterious place. If you enter it, your spiritual sense will be greatly restricted. Moreover, the interior of Fengyin Valley is quite sinister. You must be careful, Master."

"Hehe, thank you for your thoughtfulness, Lao Zheng."

Lin Xuan put away the map of Wind Silver Valley and patted Old Zheng on the shoulder with a smile.

Seven days later, all of the dozen or so people who had been promoted to stewards at the same promotion meeting had arrived, including Tie Lizi. At first, Tie Lizi had actually taken the initiative to provoke Lin Xuan, but now he would stay far away from Lin Xuan whenever he saw him.

He absolutely could not afford to offend Lin Xuan, especially since Lin Xuan wielded the Heavenly Sword and could use it as a fruit peel if he was unhappy.

"Your mission this time is simple: investigate the whereabouts of the evil race in Wind Silver Valley. Half a year ago, one of our disciples encountered members of the evil race in Wind Silver Valley. If Wind Silver Valley is the evil race's stronghold, then we can prepare in advance."

Lin Xuan and the other twelve gathered in a small house. The one who spoke to them was an elder of the Divine Dragon Palace, a powerful Immortal King.

"Elder, if we're investigating some traces of the evil race, it shouldn't require this many of us, right?"

Suddenly someone shared their opinion.

"Hmph, this is so that you can look out for each other when you go out. The evil race is powerful and should not be underestimated."

The elder snorted coldly, immediately silencing the person who had asked the question.

The elder suddenly walked up to Lin Xuan.

"So you are Lin Xuan, the lucky one who possesses the Heavenly Sword?"

Lin Xuan sensed a hint of jealousy in the elder's tone, indicating that many elders coveted his Heavenly Sword.

Now that I've taken the initiative to leave the Eight Immortal Palaces, will some of the hall masters or elders get restless?

"Indeed, it was just a fluke."

Lin Xuan smiled and responded to the elder's words.

The elder's expression immediately froze. He said nothing more, but stood back and glanced at the twelve Golden Immortals.

"This mission will last for a year, and we will investigate thoroughly within that year."

"lets go."

Old Zhang waved his hand casually, and his figure disappeared from the spot.

Lin Xuan and the other twelve looked at each other in bewilderment. They couldn't very well say that they were fighting individually, because that would defeat the purpose of setting off as a group.

"In that case, we twelve should first choose one of our fellow Daoists to lead the group."

When people spoke up, they were all thinking of forming a group.

Investigating the evil race may sound like a formality, but if you actually encounter them, without banding together for mutual support, you might be individually attacked and become a victim of their clutches.

"I can do it."

"It doesn't matter to me either."

Apart from Lin Xuan, everyone present was an old monster who had lived for tens or even hundreds of thousands of years. One by one, they all began to decline, because no one wanted to be the so-called leader.

“Hehe, since we are choosing a leader, we must choose the strongest one to lead us. Everyone has witnessed Fellow Daoist Lin Xuan’s strength. I think it is best to let Fellow Daoist Lin Xuan take charge of our group.”

Iron ions spoke up, immediately demanding that Lin Xuan step forward.

Lin Xuan scoffed at this. He had no intention of setting off as a group. In his view, these guys were just a hindrance. After all, the strongest person besides Lin Xuan was only a Third Tribulation Golden Immortal, and they really couldn't help Lin Xuan much.

"Fine, I'll go alone. You guys figure it out yourselves."

Since the sect didn't force the twelve of them to act together, Lin Xuan disappeared from the spot as soon as he finished speaking.

Lin Xuan's arrogance infuriated everyone present, but they dared not speak out against it.

"That's really arrogant!"

"Hehe, Fellow Daoist Hu, if you could also possess a top-tier innate spiritual treasure, then you could be just as arrogant."

"I just wasn't so lucky. What can I do when other people are so fortunate?"

"Even the Heavenly Sword has not been seen in person."

"I have seen it once, and it is indeed extremely sharp and powerful."

"Fine, since that's the case, let's have you, Railway Comrade, take the lead."

"Fellow Daoist Iron Ion is also acceptable, after all, Fellow Daoist Iron Ion is also a Third Tribulation Golden Immortal."

With everyone chiming in, Iron Ion took over the leadership position.

Lin Xuan had already set off for Wind Silver Valley.

Fengyin Valley is far from the Eight Immortal Palaces. Even if Lin Xuan, a space-type expert, were to travel at full speed, it would take him seven days and seven nights without sleep.

If it were people like those with iron ions, it would take them at least ten days to half a month to get there.

"Have they set out yet?"

"Already set off."

"Notify Tanaka Evil King that this person possesses monstrous talent. If he is not killed, he will become a scourge to the evil god clan!"

"Understood!" (End of Chapter)
