Only after becoming emperor did he realize he was in a fantasy world of immortal cultivation.

As the sun set, Lin Yuan left the weapon-refining hall.

He then moved among the disciples.

White robes fluttering, a dreamlike city of fleeting splendor.

As they traveled along the route, laughter and cheerful voices continuously reached Lin Yuan's ears.

This is the main city.

It possesses the most abundant resources of the Gong Clan Immortals, as well as exceptionally talented disciples.

At this time, most disciples returned to their dormitories in groups. After Lin Yuan became a formal disciple, he was also assigned a courtyard located in the city.

However, right now...

He also needs to go back to the courtyard outside the city.

After thinking it over, Lin Yuan walked out of the main city against the flow of people.

After one incense stick has burned.

Lin Yuan pushed open the courtyard gate.

After passing through several corridors, you enter the main hall.

Looking up, Ji Lin, who had been waiting for a long time, came into view.

"Senior Brother." Ji Lin's gaze fell on Lin Yuan, and he stepped forward to bow to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan nodded slightly.

He then slowly walked to the table and sat down.

Ji Lin lowered his brows and glanced lightly at Lin Yuan's disciple robes. His tone was as cautious as ever. "Congratulations, Senior Brother, on entering the main city."

"Oh?" Lin Yuan looked up at Ji Lin, the last syllable of his voice carrying a somewhat ambiguous meaning.

Lin Yuan then asked again, "Congratulations?"

"Do you know what our next mission is?" Lin Yuan asked again.

Ji Lin's eyes darted around a few times without him noticing.

But he was very curious.

When he received the antidote from the Demonic Sect a few days ago, he only knew that Lin Yuan had obtained the Rejuvenation Pearl, but he was unaware of their next mission.

Ji Lin then honestly replied, "I don't know."

"Yes..." Lin Yuan paused, his tone neither too loud nor too soft, but his words seemed to be hammering Ji Lin's heart again and again.

What kind of mission could it be that would make Lin Yuan say those words just now?

"Kill someone."

Lin Yuan's follow-up remarks followed immediately.

Upon hearing this, Ji Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

It was just murder.

Furthermore, Ji Lin guessed that this person was most likely in the outer city.

Most of the cultivators from the outer city of the Gong Clan Immortal Clan are not highly skilled.

Apart from......

Wait, could the person Lin Yuan was talking about be...?

"The ten elders of the Gong Clan are our target." Lin Yuan, having enjoyed Ji Lin's magical changes of expression, slowly uttered these words.

It really was the Tenth Elder! Ji Lin couldn't help but be secretly shocked.

The tenth elder of the Gong Clan had reached the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment stage; killing him was no easy task.

Not to mention, within the Gong Clan, even finding an opportunity to connect with nearly ten elders is extremely difficult.

In the past, Lin Yuan served in the Dharma Transmission Hall, which was...

Ji Lin's mind raced for a moment. He slightly lifted his eyelids, looked at Lin Yuan, and whispered, "What are your plans, Senior Brother?"

Since Lin Yuan successfully obtained the Rejuvenation Pearl, his feelings when calling someone "Senior Brother" have changed.

Lin Yuan did not speak immediately upon hearing this.

He then slowly stood up and walked to the window. After a long while, his voice came from behind him: "There is now an empty guard post in the Hall of Dharma Transmission..."

This news was mentioned to him casually by Deacon He earlier. The cultivator who replaced him as the head of the guards was promoted from the bottom up, leaving one guard on duty.

Ji Lin immediately understood and said, "Don't worry, senior brother, I'm determined to get this guard post."

"But senior brother... how are we supposed to kill the Tenth Elder?"

Lin Yuan narrowed his eyes, his thoughts racing upon hearing this.

Compared to Ji Lin's question, what he really wanted to know was why the Blood Refining Sect wanted to kill the Tenth Elder.

The Tenth Elder is an elder of the Gong Clan of Immortals.

Killing him would surely cause a huge uproar in the Gong Clan.

What benefits does the Blood Refining Sect offer?

What benefit would he gain from killing the Tenth Elder?

Lin Yuan gazed at the distant horizon, his eyes shifting and changing in the sunlight.

After a moment, Lin Yuan said, "I will inform you of the follow-up plans when the time is right."

"You may step back now."

"Yes, senior brother."
