Suddenly, a corpse flew out from the crowd, and that group of Beggars pounced on it as if they had gone mad again.
The surrounding rchant caravans were in an uproar, all scrambling to get out of the way.
Zhao Yi observed the actions of the Beggar Gang Disciples. He then turned to glance at Lin Bai, his brows slightly furrowed, and said discontentedly, "Disciple Lin, you have such a strong killing intent."
[Disgust from Zhao Yi; 1 1 1]
What’s the problem? I’m teaching you how to deal with Descendants! What does this have to do with my killing intent?!
Lin Bai laughed unconcernedly and said, "Don’t ntion it; it’s what I’m supposed to do. Brother Zhao, Descendants are immortal. To deal with these arrogant individuals, we must be ruthless. Otherwise, if more people like this appear in the Sect, it will beco chaotic in a few days."
"Disciple Lin, you just need to take care of your Beggar Gang. Don’t worry about the Morning Yuan Sword Sect." Zhao Yi shot Lin Bai and his ragged Beggars a glance, left a comnt, and turned to leave.
Is his skin really that thin?
Lin Bai laughed dumbfoundedly, seemingly realizing why Zhao Yi had a bad attitude towards him. It turned out that he felt humiliated by him...
I must say, this sword cultivator really has a straight-laced character!
「...」
On the live broadcast screen of Lonely Old Man, the barrage of comnts started again:
"Shopkeeper Lin is too ruthless, casually revealing how to deal with Players. Once this spreads, other Sects’ Players will have a tough ti."
"What else can be done? They don’t obey rules. In no ti, powerful Players would start massacring cities, then the ga will surely crash."
"But if the ga limits the Players too much, it’ll lose its playability."
"That’s true realism. Besides, do you enter the ga world just to challenge and break rules?"
"What’s the point of playing gas if you don’t create chaos?"
"Greg is right. Lin Bai is a cancer to the ga. Wherever he is, Players can’t enjoy the gaming experience."
"At least those in the Beggar Gang are having a decent life."
"It’s impossible for everyone to join the Beggar Gang."
"If Lin Bai continues to grow, no one will play the ga."
"The ga company isn’t worried about this. Given the high-quality production of the ga, they’ll never lack Players."
"It can replace sleep. Even if you’re just an ordinary citizen in the ga, it’s still fun."
"The western Land of Gods and Demons is equally popular. Many foreigners suspect that the ga world is a real one, and lots of scholars want to conduct research there!"
"There’s not a single NPC like Lin Bai in the Land of Gods and Demons. If Lin Bai continues in this way, we’ll be at a disadvantage when international battles start."
"One Lin Bai isn’t scary. What’s frightening is if other NPCs learn from Lin Bai. That would be the Player’s doomsday."
"That’s impossible. The NPCs have different characters. Zhao Yi from the Morning Yuan Sword Sect is quite tsundere."
"Lin Bai has a BUG."
"What’s the use? Unless they can guarantee a successful outco, who would dare to risk triggering a BUG in Lin Bai’s presence? They might end up having to delete their accounts and start over. I suspect that it’s not a BUG at all, but a tool Lin Bai uses for fishing."
"Very likely. Rember Shopkeeper Lin’s supposed BUG before? In the end, wasn’t it confird to be a marketing ploy?"
"Real or fake, illusion or truth. I have to say, Lin Bai is the essence of this ga; he alone has added so much fun."
「...」
The soldiers guarding the city had already noticed the commotion here but hadn’t thought much of it.
However, once soone was killed, they couldn’t ignore it.
The squad leader walked over with his n, looked at the corpse on the ground, and asked with a grim face, "In broad daylight, why commit murder?"
"I didn’t kill a person." Lin Bai glanced at the city guard officer. He turned to Crazy Man, who was behind him, and signaled, "Crazy Man, show your identification to the officer."
Crazy Man understood and took out the Hidden Guard waist token that Xu Longyun had specifically made for Players. He handed it over. "We are Hidden Guards from Jiamucheng, tasked with capturing lawless Descendants. This man was incredibly vicious. Thinking he had learned a few skills, he ca forward to provoke us. We had no choice but to kill him."
"Hidden Guards? Descendants?" The squad leader looked at the waist token, sneered, and handed it back. "I’ve never heard of Hidden Guards having exclusive waist tokens. However, since this involves Descendants, it’s no longer under my jurisdiction. Co with and explain yourselves to the personnel from the Supervisory Immortal Office!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Qingqin descended from the sky and landed in front of Lin Bai. "Shopkeeper Lin, you really are a handful! I leave for a mont, and you’ve already killed soone?"
"He frad , so am I not allowed to kill him?" Lin Bai smiled. "It’s not a big deal; they don’t truly die anyway. Brother Zhao Yi from the Morning Yuan Sword Sect can attest to this. This fellow had ill intentions, trying to incite conflict between the Beggar Gang and the Morning Yuan Sword Sect. If I hadn’t been vigilant, we would have clashed with the Morning Yuan Sword Sect already."
"Zhao Yi?" Jiang Qingqin scoffed. "That inflexible fellow? He puts on a sour face with everyone. There’s no need to call him ’Brother’..."
"You don’t get along with him?" Lin Bai asked.
"Nobody gets along with him," Jiang Qingqin said. "He’s always clutching a sword; I’ve never seen him interact with anyone. Let’s go, I’ll take you to the Supervisory Immortal Office."
With that, she took out a Token and showed it to the squad leader beside them. "I brought these people. I’ll take them to the Supervisory Immortal Office!"
The squad leader glanced at the Token, saluted Jiang Qingqin, then waved his n back, making way.
"Let’s go!" Jiang Qingqin called to Lin Bai and sighed.
"You seem a bit unhappy, don’t you?" Lin Bai asked.
"It’d be strange if I were happy," Jiang Qingqin replied. "This ti, Return to Dragon View, Morning Yuan Sword Sect, Hundred Flower Valley, dicine King Valley, and Spirit Artifact Pavilion each sent a disciple to the basic cities below. Their mission was to escort the Descendants to Qian City. However, most of the Descendants were hijacked midway by people from the Evil Sect, and only a few made it to Qian City. Our group suffered the fewest losses, yet all of them ended up joining your Beggar Gang..."
"They’re mbers of the Beggar Gang. You knew that before we ca, didn’t you?" Lin Bai laughed.
"I initially thought that not many people would willingly beco beggars. I assud that once we reached Qian City, so of the Descendants in your Beggar Gang would surely choose to join other sects. But after your display on the road, single-handedly taking on the Blood Shadow Sect, it’s no wonder they wouldn’t want to leave the Beggar Gang!" Jiang Qingqin scoffed. "When we get to the Supervisory Immortal Office, I have no idea how I’ll face the criticism from the other sects!"
"Are you saying that most of the Descendants from other cities were hijacked by the Evil Sect?" Lin Bai asked.
"Mm, I just found out myself too," Jiang Qingqin sighed. "The people from Return to Dragon View, Spirit Implent Sect, and dicine King Valley arrived before us. Who knew the Evil Sect would go to such lengths this ti? How dare they..."
"No wonder," Lin Bai murmured.
"No wonder about what?" Jiang Qingqin asked.
"No wonder Zhao Yi has been wearing such a long face," Lin Bai laughed. "Turns out he only brought back one person, and that person was a troublemaker whom I ended up slapping to death."
"..." Jiang Qingqin was speechless.
"By the way, what’s this Supervisory Immortal Office?" Lin Bai asked. "You didn’t ntion it the whole way here!"
"You didn’t ask either!" Jiang Qingqin rolled her eyes at him, thinking to herself, If I had told you about the Supervisory Immortal Office beforehand and you had been prepared, would any of the Beggar Gang’s Descendants have been allocated elsewhere?
Lin Bai saw right through her little sche but just smiled without saying a word.
"The Supervisory Immortal Office is a temporary yan. It was set up by the City Lord and the major Sects in various large towns. Its main responsibility is to manage and distribute the Descendants." Jiang Qingqin turned her head to look at Lin Bai, her cheeks blushing slightly as she quickly averted her gaze. "Ostensibly, it’s to guarantee the Descendants’ right to choose freely. In reality, however, it’s to prevent the Sects from fighting over the Descendants, which could lead to conflicts that are difficult to resolve..."
