Chapter 2526 Crazy Beggar

The hall was brightly lit, but the atmosphere was a bit dull.

"It's just dealing with Lin Xun. Seniors, don't worry about it. The day the Battlefield of the Gods appears is the day of his death."

A young man leaned lazily in a chair, sloppy, with his hair flying, and a cynical arc on the corner of his lips. He was Nan Tianzheng, a very famous and peerless supreme Emperor hailing from the Seventh Heaven Domain.

Before Lin Xun had arrived in Chaotian City, he made a declaration to the outside world that as long as the other man dared to appear in the Ruins of the Gods, he would be killed without mercy!

"My dear nephew, this boy is among the top one hundred on the Mythic Ranking. How could he be that easy to deal with? Don't forget, countless Ancestors of a Path have died under his hands."

A gentle man chuckled. His name was Yun Lanfeng, from the Immortal Imperial Yun Clan. In terms of seniority, he was the uncle of Yun Muzhe.

"If I used my trump cards, I could also achieve what he did." Nan Tianzheng smiled with a cold and sharp look in his eyes.

"Let's do it this way. When the Battlefield of the Gods appears, each of our four clans will send out a force. No matter what, we must kill this boy and never let the opportunity on him be obtained by others," Nan Yongqiang made a decision.

Gu Banzhuang, Yun Lanfeng and the others all nodded.

...

"Rejected?"

At the same time, in another magnificent and elegant courtyard in the city, an old white-haired man couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"Yes, I thought that because Lin Xun had come from the Ancient Nebula Road, he wouldn’t know the power of our Fu Clan in the Eternal True Realm. It was only later I discovered that he was quite aware, but despite that he still refused the offer.”

This was the guy in brocade robes who had appeared in front of the Battle Stele of the Domain and invited Lin Xun. He was from the Fu Clan, and he was frowning as he said, "I suspect that he wants to wait for a better reward while seeing if there are any other powerful clans who will recruit him."

The old white-haired man smiled and said, "Waiting for a better reward? Those who can leave their names in the top hundred of the Mythic Rankings are not mere goods and cannot be measured by mere money."

The man in brocade clothes responded, "Elder, it is rumored in the city that the four clans under Donghuang are all raring to murder this boy on the Battlefield of the Gods. In my opinion, this guy comes with a lot of baggage. If we forcefully recruit him, it is very likely to offend the Donghuang Clan."

The old white-haired man frowned. The smile on his face had completely disappeared as he said, "Do you think that our Fu Clan can't even afford to offend the four dogs under the command of the Donghuang Clan?"

The man in brocade sweated profusely and said quickly, "I dare not. I just think that it is not worth paying such a price for Lin Xun."

The old white-haired man thought for a while and said, "Forget it, you don't have to intervene in this matter. If this boy has the ability to return alive from the Battlefield of the Gods, then I will go to see him in person."

...

Early the next morning, Lin Xun woke up from his meditation session, feeling refreshed. After years of fighting and killing, he hadn’t been able to relax as he just did.

"Lin Xun, what is your ranking? Tell me, maybe I can help you solve some problems,” suddenly asked the green sparrow. It had not said a peep all night, but now it couldn't help itself.

Lin Xun was startled, and said with a strange look, "Is the ranking really that important?"

The green sparrow said unhappily, "Even the Fu Clan has taken the initiative to try to recruit you. Do you think it is an ordinary thing to be able to leave your name in the top hundred of the Mythic Ranking? Enough nonsense, tell me quickly. My Yuan Clan also has a base in Chaotian City, so maybe it can help you."

Obviously, the green sparrow wanted to use the power of the Yuan Clan to help Lin Xun resolve his issues.

"Green Sparrow, if you really want to help me, then don’t bring the Yuan Clan into this.” Lin Xun continued seriously, "This is especially true for some of my secrets. You have seen them, but I don't want anyone else to know except you."

Over the years, with the green sparrow’s guidance, he had saved a lot of time and energy, and it also allowed him to avoid many dangerous places. In his heart, he had long regarded the green sparrow as a friend.

The green sparrow was obviously surprised. After a moment of silence, it said, "I just want to help you. If you don't want me to, then forget it."

Lin Xun smiled and said, "It's enough for me that you feel this way.”

Then he told the bird his ranking. The green sparrow immediately acted as if it had been struck by lightning. It was dumbfounded and stood there with its beak wide open, looking incredibly shocked.

After a long time, it flapped its wings and shouted, "Freak, how could I meet such a big freak like you? Goodness, if the Eternal Divine Clans found out about this ranking, they would be worried, right?"

The green sparrow seemed to be utterly flabbergasted, which made Lin Xun speechless. It was just a ranking. Could it really have such great power?

If he then told the bird that this ranking was the result of the test after not allowing the stele to sense his innate talent, then what expression would it have?

While smiling and shaking his head, Lin Xun walked straight out of the inn, "I'm going to take a walk in the city, do you want to go?"

The green sparrow murmured in a lost voice, "You go, I need to calm down and restrain myself... Otherwise my heart won't be able to bear it..."

Lin Xun was stunned for a moment, then he touched his nose and left by himself.

"Should I ask for help from the clan..." Watching Lin Xun leave, the green sparrow was extremely conflicted. Its eyes flickered.

Lin Xun's high ranking on the Mythic Ranking had made its scalp turn numb, and it couldn't even believe it. It knew very well that if the Yuan Clan had recruited Lin Xun into the clan, it would be no different from picking up a rare treasure!

If he embarked on the immortal path in the future... With his assistance and service, it would even be enough to greatly improve the status and prestige of the Yuan Clan! This was by no means an exaggeration.

After all, just ranking in the the top one hundred of the Xuan Ranking had attracted the recruitment offer of the Fu Clan, an immortal giant of the Eighth Heaven Domain.

Then what if someone was ranked in the top ten? That would have a completely different meaning. Not to mention the Fu Clan, even the other immortal giants of the Eighth Heaven Domain would become alarmed and scramble to grab that person.

Even the legendary Eternal Divine Clans that have been entrenched in the Ninth Heaven Domain would be tempted if they knew about this!

In fact, Lin Xun had ranked ninth!

When the green sparrow thought of this, it couldn't calm down at all. If news of this was spread out, it would probably set off a gargantuan sensation in Chaotian City!

"If the young lady was here, it would be so great..."

For a long time, the green sparrow couldn't help but sigh. It felt like it had discovered a peerless treasure, but it couldn't decide whether to occupy it. It was too conflicted.

...

While the green sparrow was wrestling with itself, Lin Xun was walking around the city leisurely, feeling very relaxed.

Chaotian City was lively and prosperous. Creatures from the Eternal True Realm could be seen everywhere. There were all kinds of strange tribes, and no matter how high or low their cultivation was, they all lived in peace.

With the threat of the law spirit, Haotian, even Emperors did not dare to take any actions that were against the rules. This made the atmosphere in the city quite peaceful, and it was a scene of safety and prosperity.

This made Lin Xun ponder upon this a lot.

When all creatures in the world, regardless of their cultivation level or their noble or humble origins, all followed a certain kind of rule and order, how could turmoil and bloodshed appear?

For example, in Chaotian City, with the existence of Haotian, who dared to go against the rules?

Gradually, many ideas came to Lin Xun's mind. He had a lot of law power in his possession, but his understanding of their details was almost at zero.

Now that he had witnessed Haotian, he realized that the existence of law power was by no means as simple as a means of combat that could be used. It also involved the essential mystery of maintaining the operation of a world!

Suddenly, a burst of angry curses came from a restaurant in the distance.

"Get out of here! You stinky beggar, if this wasn't Chaotian City, I would have chopped you alive thousands of times!" shouted a waiter angrily.

Next to him, a figure with tattered clothes and unkempt hair was lying on the ground, screaming back, "Wine, wine, give me wine, and I'll leave!"

Many people nearby had gathered there to watch the ruckus.

"It is said that this person was originally a person with profound cultivation, but I don't know what kind of disaster he experienced. Now, his state of mind is seriously damaged, his cultivation has faded, and he has become a completely useless person and crazy to boot."

"Alas, the road to the great dao is so difficult and dangerous. Seeing him like this, I can't help but feel sympathetic."

"Don't feel sorry for him. Although this guy is crazy, he’s quite picky. Ordinary wine cannot satisfy him at all. He must drink the treasured wine Winding Stream Banquet from Baofeng House. Do you know how much a cup of Winding Stream Banquet costs? Three thousand first-grade cosmic origin source crystals! One pot of it costs at least a hundred thousand first-grade cosmic origin crystals!"

"My goodness, this beggar has a big appetite."

People talked and pointed at this disheveled beggar, with voices filled with pity, sarcasm, and ridicule.

"If you don't leave, I'll kick you out!"

In front of the restaurant, the waiter looked grim and incredibly annoyed. In Chaotian City, he couldn't do anything, so he was helpless against this begging madman.

"I only drink one cup, just one cup,” shouted the beggar in a pleading manner.

"One cup? That's also three thousand first-grade cosmic origins crystals. Do you have money?" asked the waiter unhappily. He was clearly furious.

This madman would appear in front of the restaurant every once in a while. Over the years, he had become a well-known menace in the city, which always caused a headache.

"Come with me, I'll give you wine."

Suddenly, a tall figure came over, squatted down, and spoke in a gentle voice. His eyes were filled with a complex look.

"Lin Xun?!" screamed someone nearby, which immediately caused a sensation. All eyes couldn't help but look at the tall figure squatting in front of the beggar. Everyone was full of curiosity and surprise.

What had happened yesterday was still spreading through the city, causing a great sensation. Who wouldn’t be able to recognize this tall figure, the peerless ruthless man who had left his name in the top hundred of the Mythic Ranking?

The waiter who originally planned to drive the beggar away also shut up immediately, in doubt.

The scene fell silent for a while.

On the ground, the disheveled beggar shouted, "I only drink Winding Stream Banquet."

Lin Xun nodded, "Okay."

"I want to drink a pot, no, ten pots!" continued the beggar, as if he had caught a fool and wanted to blackmail him.

Even the people nearby couldn't stand it anymore. He was being too much, wasn’t he? He probably didn’t know that the person in front of him was a peerless, ruthless man who was famous in the Great Thousand Battle Domain!

Even the waiter couldn't help but say angrily, "Old thing, you are so ungrateful, you..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lin Xun who had lowered his head and looked at the crazy beggar seriously, saying, "As long as you follow me, I will let you drink as much as you want, even if it's ten pots, a hundred pots, or a thousand pots."
