Back at Ji Village.
Lin Yan hesitated for a moment before finding his Eldest Senior Brother, Zang Wei, and Pang Feiyan to tell them the whereabouts of the Pavilion Master, Pang Yinlong.
When they heard that Pang Yinlong had actually turned into a three-meter-tall giant monster and fell into the Netherworld River, their expressions darkened and they could not calm down for a long time.
Three days later, Zang Wei found Lin Yan. “Junior Brother Lin, Feiyan and I are going back to Dragon Gate Pavilion.”
“Eldest Senior Brother…”
Lin Yan was silent for a moment before saying, “Eldest Senior Brother, Dragon
Gate Pavilion is now occupied by outsiders. I’ll go back with you.”
Zang Wei shook his head. “I went to investigate yesterday. It’s just a dirty small gang. There’s no tiger in the mountains. If the monkeys call themselves kings, I can resolve it myself.”
“That’s good too.”
At this moment, a trace of disappointment flashed across Zang Wei’s eyes. “In addition… Feiyan and I are about to get married!”
“What? So sudden?” Lin Yan looked pleasantly surprised.
“People of our world don’t care about trifles. Actually, we should have done it long ago. It’s just that I haven’t been able to get news of Master, so I don’t want to be rude. Now, Dragon Gate Pavilion needs us to bear the responsibility, so we can’t delay any longer.”
“Congratulations, Eldest Senior Brother!”
Zang Wei and Pang Feiyan were childhood sweethearts, so they were naturally a good match.
“We’ve decided to get married in Dragon Gate Pavilion in a few days. At the same time, we’ll reopen the Dragon Gate Pavilion. At that time, you must come and support us!”
“Eldest Senior Brother, you’re too kind. I’ll definitely be there!”
Zang Wei shook his head and sighed. “There are more and more people in this mountain. Junior Brother Lin, you should return to the city as soon as possible. There has always been a place for you in Dragon Gate Pavilion!”
With that, Zang Wei turned around and left.
Lin Yan was silent for a moment. What Eldest Senior Brother said made sense.
The bitterness in the mountains could not compare to the convenience and prosperity in the city.
Moreover, now, because of the Demon Suppression Division’s initiative to explore the poisonous fog, there were even more people in the mountains than before.
There would be even more people during the Dingdeng Genius Battle.
“It’s indeed time to return to the city. However, in the next Dingdeng Genius Battle, countless powerful dragons will pass through the outer city. They will definitely affect the order in Ding’an City. I wonder what kind of rules Issuer Liu will set…”
Not long after, Xie Lingyan arrived.
“Miss Xie, are you going back to the city too?”
“You’ve guessed it. I still have many junior brothers and sisters. I can’t ignore them. Now that the rebellion in Ding’an City has calmed down and order has been restored, I should go back.”
“Are you also going to reopen Qinghong Martial Arts School?”
Xie Lingyan sighed slightly. “There’s no more Qinghong Martial Arts School!”
Huh?”
Xie Lingyan pointed in the direction of Ding’an City and said, “In Ding’an City, in the nine districts in the inner city, many pavilions and houses have been requisitioned by the new Demon Suppression Division. Qinghong Martial Arts School is among them.”
Requisition the inner city’s nine districts?
Is Issuer Liu planning to arrange for everyone from the outer city to move into the nine districts of the inner city?
Xie Lingyan pointed at her waist. “They did give us enough money as compensation. My master is gone. If the school is no more, so be it. Next, I plan to bring my junior brothers and sisters into Dragon Gate Pavilion as a guest mentor.”
Lin Yan nodded. “That’s good too.”
The next day, Zang Wei, Pang Feiyan, and Lin Yan agreed on meeting again at the wedding seven days later before they left with Xie Lingyan.
Along with them were Hu Wa and a few other capable young men and women. They all came from the nearby villages when they heard about the departure.
“Brother, can we see Sister Feiyan and Sister Xie again?” Xiaozhi raised her head and pursed her lips tightly, about to cry.
Lin Yan ruffled Xiaozhi’s hair and gradually made a decision. “We’ll meet them again soon.”
Seven days later.
Ding’an City, Demon Suppression Division’s official residence.
Lin Yan waited outside the women’s area of the Demon Suppression Division.
Not long after, two people walked over from behind.
“Lin Yan.”
Turning around, Lin Yan’s heart skipped a beat.
Chen Yuan had specially put on her makeup and done her hair today. Her snow-white dress stood leisurely, and her black hair fluttered gently in the wind, looking beautiful.
Xiaozhi popped her head out from behind her butt and looked up shyly.
Chen Yuan had also dressed her up. She was wearing a light yellow dress and looked extremely cute.
“Senior Sister Chen, let’s go.”
Chen Yuan glared at him. “You’re wearing this?”
Lin Yan sized himself up and was sure that he had already taken off the patrol officer’s official uniform. He asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”
Chen Yuan scratched her head in distress. “Forget it. It’s not your wedding anyway. Let’s go.”
Outside the door, a carriage had been waiting for a long time. The person driving the carriage was handsome. It was the eldest son of the Song family’s SongYuansi, Song Tian.
When Song Tian saw Lin Yan come out, he hurriedly cupped his hands and said, “Lord.”
Lin Yan raised his hand. “Young Master Song, I just need a carriage. You don’t have to drive it yourself.”
“Sir, what are you talking about? You’re the captain now. It’s my duty to drive the carriage for you. In addition, there’s a difference in seniority. You should call me Song Tian.”
Seeing Song Tian’s determined expression, Lin Yan helplessly helped Chen Yuan into the carriage and carried Xiaozhi up.
“Hyah!”
The whip was waved, and the horses neighed as the carriage moved forward.
The interior of the carriage was simple but luxurious. It was indeed worthy of being the carriage of the Song family, one of the rich families in Ding’an City.
Lin Yan sat in the car and swayed with it. He looked at the serious Song Tian through the raised curtain.
He was the son of a lowly gangster, but the young master of a wealthy family was willing to drive for him outside.
Life was really unpredictable.
A few days ago, after weighing the pros and cons, Lin Yan decided to return to Ding’an City.
The mountains were clear and bitter. The originally clean place became not so clean because more and more people came to the Ji Village.
In Ding’an City, Liu Lanqing of the Demon Suppression Division was bold and decisive. She changed the City Lord Manor’s attitude of not caring about anything in the past and established an incomparably powerful Patrol Camp, which was in charge of keeping order in Ding’an City.
In a short period of time, they eliminated many gangs and suppressed many thieves in Ding’an City, causing the order of the entire Ding’an City to be restored and its appearance to change drastically.
It was also because of this that Lin Yan decided to return to Ding’an City.
In Ding’an City, the safest place was the Demon Suppression Division. In the Demon Suppression Division, the safest place was the women’s area.
After all, Liu Lanqing was the most powerful expert in Ding’an City, and she lived here. Even Xiao Ye and Qin Xiang did not dare to be impudent here.
Therefore, for the sake of Xiaozhi’s safety, Lin Yan finally returned to Ding’an City and became the captain of the Demon Suppression Division’s fifth patrol team.
He was confused when he took over.
Unexpectedly, that night, countless guests from the wealthy families in Ding’an City came to visit, but he refused to see them.
Only then did he know how popular this little captain was in Ding’an City.
There were only five teams in the Patrol Camp. Liu Lanqing was the camp commandant, and Wu Qinglei was the deputy camp commandant. He was also in charge of the Patrol Camp.
The first four teams were led by Qin Xiang, Xiao Ye, Fan Xiaopeng, and a Demon Suppression Guard that Lin Yan did not recognize.
It was in the elite mode. Each team did not exceed 15 people. The core was made of the Demon Suppression Guard. Most of the other members were experts from the various aristocratic sects in Ding’an City.
Especially the first and second teams under Qin Xiang and Xiao Ye. They even had Noble Realm martial masters joining them. Once they moved out, they could easily destroy a wealthy family in Ding’an City.
As for Lin Yan’s team, it originally didn’t exist. It was completely added by Wu Qinglei as backup.
It was obvious that he did not want to let go of a combat power like Lin Yan, so he casually gave him the title of team captain.
Therefore, he only had two incapable subordinates at the moment. One was the vice-captain, Ning Xiaohui, who was in charge of supervising him. The only real subordinate was Song Tian.
“Fortunately, the other four teams have sufficient manpower now. I don’t have to do anything. I patrol once in the morning and at dusk every day. Two days is a Small Merit. I earn it for nothing.
“However, when the people from the outer city arrive, I’m afraid it’s impossible for me to be so free…”
Phew!
The carriage stopped. “Sir, we’re here!”
Lin Yan lifted the curtain and helped Xiaozhi and Chen Yuan out of the carriage.
In front of him was the courtyard of Dragon Gate Pavilion.
The door wall was decorated with lanterns and colorful banners. It was filled with joy.
The plaque on it had already transformed into a new red wooden plaque. It was still the familiar words ‘Dragon Gate Pavilion’.
Lin Yan looked up and felt slightly dazed.
Less than half a year ago, he was also like this. He stood in front of this plaque, hesitating and anxious, waiting for the decision of his life.
But now, too many things had happened. It was as if the world had changed.
“Let’s go in.”
When he entered the hall, there were lanterns and red ropes, and window flowers hung high everywhere. Eldest Senior Brother was wearing a red robe and was welcoming the guests. When he saw Lin Yan, he hurriedly came over.
They had a life-and-death relationship, so there was naturally no need to say anything. After a few words, Zang Wei led him to the main table and made him sit down.
Chen Yuan and Song Tian had other seating arrangements, and Xiaozhi followed Chen Yuan.
After sitting down, Lin Yan looked around.
The people sitting at this table were all people with extraordinary bearings and high prestige. Regardless of whether they were men or women, their eyes were filled with light and their auras were high. Most of them had the temperament of being in a high position.
This kind of bearing… The people sitting at this table were all senior-level Noble Realm experts.
Seeing that Zang Wei had actually led Lin Yan to this table, several people focused their gazes on Lin Yan and examined him suspiciously.
“He actually arranged for a junior to be at this table. This Zang Wei doesn’t know etiquette…”
A middle-aged guest with an ugly face and moles on the left side of his face and fists as big as bowls muttered to another guest beside him.
Lin Yan just sat quietly and did not speak.
The guests gradually entered the venue, and the auspicious hour gradually approached.
Perhaps because he had been waiting for a long time, the ugly-looking middle-aged guest opposite him could not help but start talking to the person beside him.
“This Zang Wei doesn’t know etiquette, so he left us seniors here.”
“Don’t say that. When guests enter, the groom has to welcome them. It’s a big day for the younger generation. Let’s just watch quietly.”
“It’s a joyous day, but I’m afraid we can’t watch quietly.” His tone was meaningful.
“Hmm? Brother Hong, what do you mean?”
Everyone at the table looked over.
The mole-faced guest was calm as he knocked on the table. “Do you still remember the Four Alliances Gang in the east of the city?”
“Four Alliances Gang? Didn’t they disband three years ago? Hiss, you mean…”
A few guests looked thoughtful, and a few were calm, as if they were not surprised.
“Back then, the Four Alliances Gang were forced to disband under Pang Yinlong’s coercion. The Zhao, Wu, Sun, and Wang families have always been holding grudges.”
The mole-faced guest said jokingly, “After Pang Yinlong’s accident, the four small families secretly united again. Since the Dragon Gate Pavilion was established again, they have been scheming to find trouble.”
A silver-haired old woman on the right said disdainfully, “Looking for trouble? Pavilion Master Pang is dead, but we old fellows aren’t!”
She thought that her words would arouse the agreement of the surrounding people, but she did not expect that after she finished speaking, the other guests around her were all silent. Her expression could not help but change slightly.
“You? Hehe, everyone here has received Pavilion Master Pang’s favors!”
Everyone remained silent.
A bald man on the left suddenly said, “I heard that one of the Wu family members broke through to the Noble Realm last year..”
