As he walked between the heavens and earth, with Wang Lin's intelligence, it only took him a moment to understand why the Suzaku cultivator was so respectful to him. Zhou Wutai must have played a big role in this.
In truth, it was just as Wang Lin thought. The large-eared cultivator, Zhou Wutai, was very grateful to Wang Lin for giving him the position of Rosefinch's son. However, after Wang Lin left, he never had the chance to repay Wang Lin.
Zhou Wutai was a person who clearly distinguished between kindness and hatred, and he always remembered Wang Lin's kindness.
As a result, whether it was the Wang family descendants, the cultivation sects Wang Lin left behind, or even the country of Zhao, they all slowly became stronger under Zhou Wutai's care.
With Zhou Wutai's identity as the new Rosefinch's son, it was very easy for him to give the Wang family descendants a great fortune, allowing them to become the rulers of the mortal world.
The country of Zhao slowly rose to become a rank 5 cultivation country with his help.
Some people naturally knew that all of this was because of Wang Lin. Everything Wang Lin did in Rosefinch's tomb spread out. As time passed and Zhou Wutai pondered, the titles of Suzaku's protector and Suzaku's ancestor were unknowingly accepted by all cultivators.
The reason Zhou Wutai did this, aside from repayment, was because he hadn't reached the Ascendant stage yet, so he was the weakest Rosefinch's son. He couldn't convince the masses, so he could only use the fact that Wang Lin had already left to show off his power!
Wang Lin pondered all of this. Although he wasn't able to guess everything, he was able to figure out 50% to 60% of it. He let out a sigh. No matter what Zhou Wutai did, he needed to repay him for what he had done.
As they flew, Ta Shan and the big-headed boy followed. Along the way, Ta Shan's expression was as cold as ever. As for the big-headed boy, when he saw Wang Lin return to his hometown, the complicated feeling he had toward his family became even stronger. He could see that when the cultivators here looked at Xu Mu, they were truly respectful from the bottom of their hearts. The big-headed boy could imagine that with his current cultivation level, if he returned to his family, he would be respected as well. However, this respect was extremely fake and was only because of the situation.
In the distance, a large city appeared before them. This city was like a giant dragon, and it was filled with the aura of wealth. The surrounding walls were made of black stone, and there were fluctuations of spells coming from them.
Before they got close, Wang Lin could see that there were many powerful restrictions inside the city. There were simply too many restrictions, and if they were all activated, they would pose a threat even to an Ascendant cultivator.
This was the only mortal capital of the country of Rosefinch aside from the land occupied by the Forsaken Immortal Clan in Suzaku!
The Great Dynasty!
It was founded 437 years ago, and it became the most powerful force in Suzaku aside from the Forsaken Immortal Clan.
The Wang family of the royal family had a long history.
After more than 400 years of consolidation, the dynasty had a large number of soldiers, and even countless martial artists had submitted to them. What made the dynasty even more famous was the large number of cultivators!
In addition to this, the Cloud Sky Sect and the various sects in Zhao were all supporting this dynasty. The Wang family members enjoyed a very high status.
Wang Lin's divine sense spread out across all of Suzaku. He vaguely felt the pull of a bloodline, so he came looking for it. In this city, the Wang family had the most bloodline.
He scanned the area with his Divine Sense but didn't find Wang Zhuo's figure. He let out a long sigh before his body flickered and he disappeared.
When he reappeared, he was already inside the imperial city. Looking at the lively crowd and luxurious houses, Wang Lin gradually frowned.
The entire capital of the dynasty was too luxurious. The ground was covered in precious blue and white stones, and when his divine sense spread out, he found that all the streets of the capital were like this.
If this was it, it wouldn't be a big deal, but the surrounding trees were all covered in silk. Although it looked beautiful, it was actually a waste of good fortune.
At Wang Lin's cultivation level, he could already see some things. The sky above the capital was filled with sadness, anger, fear, and other emotions that could disturb one's mind.
If one lived here for a long time, their temperament would change, and even their lifespan would be damaged.
This aura was a type of resentment. Wang Lin had people gather this aura when he was on planet Qing Ling. Now that he saw the resentment in the capital, he frowned even more.
As his divine sense spread out, he found that all of the cities in Suzaku had different degrees of resentment. This resentment came from half of Suzaku.
This resentment came from every village and every mortal's residence. It gathered in every city and lingered there for a long time.
This was especially true in the northwest. The land was red and corpses were everywhere. A large amount of resentment came from there.
If the resentment in the other cities was very dense, then the resentment in the sky above the capital was monstrous. It turned into a demonic flame that shot into the sky.
This resentment could only be detected by someone whose cultivation level was at Wang Lin's level. If one's cultivation level wasn't high enough, they wouldn't be able to detect it at all.
"Nonsense!"
Wang Lin's expression was gloomy as he walked through the streets of the capital. He was happy to see the Wang family prosper, but this kind of prosperity would cause resentment to soar into the sky. This resentment would greatly affect the Wang family's future generations. If that happened, then he didn't need this wealth!
As he walked, the sound of horse hooves came from ahead. The people in front of him immediately panicked and quickly moved to the side. Wang Lin frowned and also took a few steps back. He looked ahead with a gloomy expression.
He saw several large horses galloping ahead. There were several young men sitting on the horses, and behind them was a large amount of servants.
These servants were all walking, but their speed could catch up to the horses.
The young men sitting on the horses were all wearing luxurious clothes. The person in the lead was very handsome, but there was a black aura around his face. This black aura wasn't thick, and even an Ascendant cultivator would have a hard time noticing it. However, it was very clear to Wang Lin.
There were also two rays of sword energy in the sky. There were two cultivators standing on the swords. Both of them were at the Foundation Establishment stage, and they were opening a path for the young man on the horse.
If this was all, it wouldn't be a big deal, but what caused Wang Lin to frown was that there was a chain tied to the back of the young man's horse. At the end of the chain was a person. This person's hair was unkempt and his face was dirty. It was impossible to see his face clearly, but based on his figure, he should be a man. At this moment, it was clear that he had been dragged all the way here. His clothes were torn and a large amount of blood flowed out. As he was dragged, it was as if someone had used a brush dipped in cinnabar to draw a shocking bloody line on the ground.
The few of them charged forward, and as their laughter echoed in the air, the martial artists quickly followed them. The two cultivators in the air didn't even spare them a glance.
After these people left, another group of soldiers quickly arrived. After they wiped off the blood on the ground, they continued to follow and wipe off the blood along the way.
It wasn't until these people had all left that the surrounding crowd returned to normal amidst the sounds of discussion.
"Ah, what a sin!
I wonder which blind person provoked the 16th prince this time. This time, I'm afraid we'll have to circle the capital once before we kill that person! "
"Exactly. In our dynasty, the imperial family is the heavens. Even the celestials have become their helpers. Who would dare to provoke them?"
"Let's not talk about this. A few months ago, it was said that the imperial advisor observed the sky and noticed that there was an ominous star in the northwest, so he slaughtered hundreds of thousands of civilians in the northwest. I heard that even now, the northwest is covered in corpses."
"We can't talk about this. Brother Li, let's not talk about this anymore. Be careful of the words that come out of your mouth."
Wang Lin's expression was gloomy. He had clearly seen that the young man in the Chinese robe had the blood of the Wang family flowing in his veins.
"Ta Shan, bring him to me!" Wang Lin calmly said.
Ta Shan didn't say anything. He turned around and disappeared. A moment later, he returned with a person in his hand. This person was the young man in the Chinese robe.
At this moment, his eyes were filled with terror as he cursed, "How dare you! How dare you capture me! Which sect are you from?
Do you know who I am? I'm from the Wang family!! "
Ta Shan's expression was cold as he walked closer to Wang Lin. He threw the young man to the ground.
What was happening caused the surrounding crowd, which had just dispersed, to tremble. Without the slightest hesitation, they began to disperse and look over at the scene, their eyes filled with astonishment.
The young man in the Chinese robe had a ferocious expression as he got up and stared at Ta Shan. Although he was shocked, he didn't reveal any fear. He shouted, "I'm from the Wang family! You dare to hurt me? I don't care which sect you're from, you're dead!!"
Wang Lin's expression was cold as he stared at the young man in the Chinese robe. A thick, black aura appeared on the young man's face. This black aura turned into a snake that spat out its tongue and silently roared at Ta Shan.
If one hadn't reached the second step, they wouldn't have noticed this. They would only feel a cold aura erupt from the young man's body, causing their minds to tremble.
At this moment, there were shouts coming from the street in the distance. The group of people who had just left came back at this moment. In front of them were two beams of sword light galloping toward them. Below them, the servants of Wulin came with murderous intent.
"Capture that traitor!"
There were a few young men on horses in the crowd that were charging over. At this moment, they all shouted ferociously.
"There is an assassin! Protect the prince!"
The two rays of sword energy charged toward Ta Shan. The two cultivators on the sword energy clenched their teeth and attacked. The two of them didn't notice anything at all, but they suddenly realized that the prince was gone.
Terrified, they immediately turned around and saw Ta Shan throwing the prince to the ground. The two of them sucked in a breath of cold air. They were disciples of the Cloud Sky Sect and were assigned to protect the prince of the Wang family. If anything happened to the prince, they would be punished when they returned to the sect.
At this moment, they charged out and stabbed toward Ta Shan.
