After I left the sect, the entire sect knelt down and begged for forgiveness.

Chapter 95 You Talk Too Much 1
The sword is not drawn, so even if you accidentally step into a hole, you won't get cut.

Lin Yan lightly jumped on and transported the person to a small town a little further from Sun City. Golden Core cultivators fly quite fast on their swords, and they arrived at their destination in no time.

This town is small, populated entirely by cultivators, and there's a sect a hundred miles away. The Peach Blossom Sect's recruitment methods won't work here; their influence won't infiltrate.

She led the group to the Chamber of Commerce to rent guest rooms.

The interpreter in charge of receiving them suggested that they rent a house for a more comfortable stay. Lin Yan agreed without hesitation and rented the house for them for half a month. She also bought them new communication jade discs and gave each of them fifty mid-grade spirit stones.

She felt she had done her best to save lives by considering this aspect of her actions.
As they left the mansion, Lanxi and Axi both chased after them.

"Fairy, please leave me your jade disc number. If you ever need my help in the future, just ask. I will go through fire and water for you!" Lanxi looked at her with expectant eyes, her heart filled with trepidation.

Only after being reminded did Lin Yan realize that she still needed to help Lan Xi find a sect. She had been so focused on settling everyone in that she had forgotten about this matter.

It's not that I'm biased towards Lanxi, it's just that the other people's aptitudes really don't meet the standards for entering the inner sect.

Having served in a sect before, I know what it's like to be a miscellaneous disciple or an outer disciple. And right now is not the time for the sect to recruit new disciples.

After adding Lanxi and the Jade Disc Number, she happily returned to the mansion, leaving Axi standing there, biting her lip tightly.

Is there anything else you need?

"Fairy, I want to follow you, can you take me in?"

Ah… Lin Yan had a bit of a headache! Why hadn’t this person given up on following her? “No! You should live your life well.” After saying that, she flew away on her sword without hesitation.

If Ah Xi doesn't want to cultivate, she can take fifty mid-grade spirit stones to buy a spaceship ticket and go live in a place inhabited by mortals. She'll never have to worry about food or drink for the rest of her life. If she wants to stay in a town inhabited by cultivators, as long as she doesn't go to a large city, this amount of spirit stones can last her for a long time.

She saved lives to such an extent that everyone would call her a living bodhisattva! She had a clear conscience and left this world decisively!

……

After Mu Feng led his men out of the city, they waited at a tea stall near the city gate. The group received their spirit stones and followed him. Not long after, he took out his contact list and pretended to send a message. Then, he feigned a change in expression, looking bitter, and said "sorry" to everyone.

The others asked what had happened.

After sighing, Mu Feng said, "Sigh... The person in charge just told me that the goods were stolen halfway through the journey, and we suffered heavy losses. I'm afraid you all will have to make a wasted trip."

The others all said, "It's alright." After all, they had only left the city, done nothing, and received thirty mid-grade spirit stones for free—it wasn't a loss.

Mu Feng looked around and said, "It's so late, you should hurry back, otherwise you won't be able to enter the city when it's curfew."

The others took their leave, but when they entered the city, they found that the guards were very strict, checking as if they wanted to examine every ancestor of eighteen generations, and in the end they were not allowed to enter.

Those who went out of the city with Mu Feng failed to enter the city and returned to their original tea stalls.

Mu Feng comforted him, "Sigh, there's nothing we can do. It's all those damned dangerous elements causing trouble in Richeng. The guards are just checking people and temporarily controlling the number of people entering the city. Maybe they'll be able to enter in a day or two after the check is over." "But where will we stay outside the city? Is it safe?"

"Isn't the airship's docking point nearby? There's a rest area next to it; we can go there and rest. There are dangerous elements inside the city; it might be much safer outside the city now."

After Mu Feng finished speaking, he looked around and beckoned to the people around him, who all crowded closer to hear the news.

"I've heard a bit that the people in a house were silently murdered by dangerous elements, leaving no survivors. I'm only telling you guys, so don't spread this around. Things aren't peaceful in the city lately, and you might just be saving your own lives while you're out on business."

The group nodded, promising not to spread the word. However, upon turning around, among the group that had come out, Mu Feng's words were directly relayed as: "There are dangerous elements in Sun City; they've silenced many cultivators!"
When Lin Yan arrived near the city gate on her sword, her clothes had changed; she no longer wore a veil, but a face veil instead.

Seeing this, Mu Feng pretended to go and strike up a conversation, but in reality, the two walked to the side and cast a shielding spell so that no one could hear what they were talking about.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, everything has been done as you said. Is this really going to work?"

"Don't worry, no matter when, rumors can become truth over time. Even if the Heavenly King himself came, the Peach Blossom Gate incident would still be the work of dangerous elements!"

With her words, Mu Feng felt a strange sense of trust. He still had one question: "How did you manage to be so sure the guards wouldn't interrogate each of them individually?"

Wasn't it said that the guards in Sun City have been particularly strict lately, especially on cultivators entering and leaving the city, requiring them to be checked one by one? If dangerous individuals were to mix in with the crowd and cause any trouble, the guards at the gate would certainly not escape punishment.

"Because the auction is tomorrow, they can't wait for more people to leave the city the night before the auction. With fewer people in the city, it will be easier to control them."

"Wouldn't a large number of people make an auction seem more impressive? Why are they kicking people out?" Mu Feng asked, puzzled.

"When there are many people at an auction, the merchants benefit, and the guards get nothing out of it. The guards don't get a share of the profits either; they only receive their own salaries and rewards. But if there are some security problems in the city, the responsibility falls on the guards. They don't get any profits to begin with, and they get scolded on top of that. Nobody likes that. So the fewer people there are, the less trouble the guards have, and the happier they are."

The guards didn't believe those dangerous individuals would go out the night before the auction.

"But sending out just a few people won't help much, the crowd will still be large."

“Even a small mosquito is still meat. Because of the auction, many cultivators have come to Sun City from other places, making it difficult to manage. The night before the auction, they let more people out and then blocked the cultivators entering the city.”

Upon hearing this, Mu Feng opened his mouth, but suddenly realized a serious problem! When the city gates opened tomorrow, the guards would block cultivators from entering the city. What should he and Fellow Daoist Lin do then?
If you can't get into the city, you can't participate in the auction...

"So we won't be able to get in either?"

"Don't you have a pill master's identity token and a residence permit for Sun City? The guards won't give you too much trouble, don't worry."

"Then what will you do, Fellow Daoist Lin? You don't have a pill master's identity token, nor a residence token for Sun City. If you get stuck, won't you miss this auction opportunity?" Mu Feng asked worriedly.

"You don't need to worry about that, I have the license from the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion."
