Tian Lin closely followed Xing Shanping out of the valley, where outside, only scattered tongues of fire remained.

The ground was covered with charred remains, accompanied by rising smoke, turning the once bustling valley into a desolated ruin.

At this time, around the valley, there were still some people from various affiliated clans.

But Tian Lin noticed that among those people, Zhao Kang and those Qi Refiners who had left the sect were nowhere to be seen.

When he and Xing Shanping approached the group, a Grandmaster stepped out and said to Xing Shanping with a bow:

"Please let Elder Xing be informed, our young master has gone to see Elder He. Also, Elder He has sent a message, requesting Elder Xing to meet him immediately after leaving the valley."

Xing Shanping nodded and, accompanied by Tian Lin, followed this person deep into the mountain.

Not long after, a temporarily erected large wooden cabin appeared ahead.

Inside the wooden cabin, as expected, were Zhao Kang and several Inner Sect Disciples.

Tian Lin heard a sharp voice coming from outside the cabin, and saw Elder He’s immortal crane flapping its wings, running and calling out, "Kill them all!"

Tian Lin had not yet entered the cabin when he indeed heard Elder He’s voice from inside saying, "In my opinion, what’s the use of sparing the women and children of the Wang Family? It’s better to kill them all."

Zhao Kang’s voice in response echoed from within: "Elder He is absolutely right, as soon as Elder Xing returns, we’ll execute all the living members of the Wang Family."

Tian Lin glanced at Xing Shanping and saw him entering the cabin with a grave face, saying:

"As the Yao Yue Sect enforces justice, how can it be swayed by personal preferences? And how can it bear to act like the secular court, punishing the innocent by association? Those of the Wang Family, as long as they have not practiced the Blood True Qi, should all be released."

Because of Xing Shanping’s words, everyone inside the cabin turned to look at him.

Tian Lin, following protocol, paid his respects to Elder He who was sitting in the middle.

But Elder He didn’t even spare a glance at Tian Lin. After putting down his wine flask, he angrily looked at Xing Shanping and said, "Which of us is the uncle, and who is the elder?"

Xing Shanping replied firmly, "You, as an elder, usually refrain from mundane affairs, while I am a member of the Law Enforcement Hall. Matters of enforcement should naturally listen to me."

Upon hearing this, Elder He put the flask on the table and turned his back, saying, "Fine, you are from the Law Enforcement Hall, then take back the bodies of your sect’s Inner Sect Disciples."

It was only after Xing Shanping moved that Tian Lin noticed a dried-up corpse lying beside Elder He.

At first, he didn’t pay much attention, but after taking a closer look at the attire on the corpse and the knife at its waist, he could not help but say to his Elder Brother Xing, "This is the Fourth Manager of my Lianshui Peak; he left for business half a month ago and didn’t return to the sect."

Xing Shanping looked at the body and turned his head to ask Elder He, "Where was this corpse found?"

Elder He stroked his beard and said, "Knowing that you would be coming to the Wang Family by Flying Boat and wouldn’t be fast, I went ahead to Lin’an County on Sword Control to get some wine. By chance, I met the people from Lin’an County Government who, recognizing me from the Yao Yue Sect, handed this corpse over to me."

"It seems that both Qinghe and Lin’an counties have been infiltrated by the Blood Sect."

As Xing Shanping spoke, his sharp gaze turned towards Zhao Kang and his group.

Tian Lin also discreetly observed the facial expressions of several Inner Sect Disciples and found them normal, showing no signs of collusion with the Blood Sect.

But these families have established roots in various places; could it be that they had not noticed the Devil Path of the Blood Sect stepping into their territories at all?

"Since there are troubles from the Devil Path in Lin’an County as well, we should send more Law Enforcement Disciples there."

As Xing Shanping finished, Elder He countered, "Almost all of your Law Enforcement Disciples have been assigned elsewhere, where will you find Law Enforcement Disciples to do your bidding?"

Xing Shanping glanced at the body of the Fourth Manager and said:

"With Liu Yunfeng gone, a Manager’s position on Lianshui Peak is vacant. We need to appoint another Inner Sect Disciple to take over Liu Yunfeng’s tasks of monitoring the families."

"Whom will you choose? This youngster beside you?"

At Elder He’s words, Tian Lin felt the gaze of a dozen pairs of eyes upon him.

His heart tightened; he absolutely did not want to take on the task of monitoring the various families.

This kind of task would not only offend those noble families but would also draw the attention of the Blood Sect.

Thinking of Liu Yunfeng, a Qi Refiner of the eighth level, inexplicably drained to a dried husk by someone.

And myself, merely a second level Qi Refiner, with only a single low-grade technique to my name.

If I truly become a Law Enforcement Disciple of the peak, how would I survive?

Tian Lin immediately said, "Disciple has neither experience in law enforcement nor the strength to convince others, I dare not covet the position of Law Enforcement Disciple of the peak even in the slightest."

"You lad, do you know what the best position in Yao Yue Sect is? Putting aside the status of a Law Enforcement Disciple—"

Elder He took a sip of wine and said, "As a Law Enforcement Disciple of the peak, you would receive two more Low Grade Spirit Stones every month."

Tian Lin was truly tempted, but considering that it’s ’wartime,’ it really doesn’t pay off to risk one’s life for two Low Grade Spirit Stones.

As he was pondering how to refuse, Xing Shanping, who had been contemplating for a while, actually spoke to his liking.

"He’s not suitable!"

Xing Shanping said, "In our Law Enforcement Hall, we don’t value cultivation ability, but we will never accept those with malicious intent."

Tian Lin looked up at Xing Shanping, seeing that his words didn’t seem to be in jest.

He was genuinely puzzled, when had he offended him?

Or rather, what made him think of him as having a malicious intent?

Tian Lin quickly recalled his words when he left the valley, perhaps it was that statement that gave Xing Shanping a bad impression of him.

"If Elder Brother is dissatisfied with me, then I am all the more unsuitable for the position of a peak’s stationed Disciple at Lianshui Peak."

"If this Tian cannot do it, then just pick anyone from the Outer Disciples you brought along."

After Elder He finished speaking, Xing Shanping shook his head again:

"Since it’s a stationed Disciple of Lianshui Peak, of course we have to choose from Lianshui Peak’s disciples; I remember there’s one called Shang Yu from Lianshui Peak, it was him who brought Han Li’s body to the Law Enforcement Hall, and he should be the one with the best reputation in Lianshui Peak."

On the side, Tian Lin opened his mouth but eventually held back the words he was about to say.

After all, his suspicion of the merchant’s involvement with the Blood Sect had no evidence; if an investigation proves the involvement, so be it, but what if it doesn’t?

Furthermore, if Xing Shanping already has a bad impression of him, what if he accuses him of being jealous and capable, of being unscrupulous in seeking the position of a stationed Disciple? Where would he find justice?

Most importantly, aside from Young Master Shang, there’s only himself left in Lianshui Peak.

It seems Xing Shanping disdains him, as well as both the Second Steward and the Third Steward.

Only if Young Master Shang takes the position, would he not need to monitor the sect-affiliated families outside and take risks, nor would it disrupt his cultivation.

"Since you’ve already made arrangements, what’s there to say?"

Elder He brought back the previous topic with indignation: "You said the Wang Family can’t be killed, then tell me, how should we deal with these hundreds of still living Wang Family members?"

Xing Shanping turned to look at Tian Lin: "Here is not far from the Yao Yue Sect, I want you to take those women and children back first."

Tian Lin was not afraid of Xing Shanping blaming him for cowardice, and simply stated: "I’m worried about encountering Devil Path followers of the Blood Sect on the way. With only the cultivation of a second level Qi Refiner, if I encounter these Devil Path followers, can I escape first?"

Xing Shanping’s face darkened, and he said through gritted teeth: "Your task is to escort them back to the sect; if you are too scared to live and flee at the sight of the enemy, then why did I bring you out of the sect?"

Hearing this, Tian Lin said, "Alright, then I’ll need horses; you say the Wang Family estate is not far from our Yao Yue Sect, but we still have to cross several mountains and rivers, taking hundreds of women and children with us, without a decent footing it would be impossible."

Xing Shanping then turned to the disciples who came out of the sect, and saw Zhao Kang stand up saying:

"Since we are affiliated families of the sect, when the sect has a need, we must lend a hand—and because of the Blood Sect disturbance, many places in our states cannot support horse caravans anymore, so there are some draft horses left that can now come in handy."

Xing Shanping then cupped his fist towards Zhao Kang, saying, "Then I shall trouble Brother Zhao!"

According to the rules, Outer Disciples, regardless of cultivation or age, should all address Inner Sect Disciples as ’Elder Brother’.

Tian Lin is an Outer Disciple and when Zhao Kang was an Outer Disciple at Yao Yue Sect, he hadn’t even entered Yao Yue Sect.

Thus, Tian Lin also cupped his fists towards Zhao Kang in thanks.
