The Sword God of the Universe-Chapter 1098: The General Director Meets Jing Yan

Sky Flower City, Heavenly Flower Tower!

"This lad really knows how to make a scene!" The Elder in charge of the Tianhua Ranking at the Heavenly Flower Tower glanced at the newly delivered information about Jing Yan and showed a faint, bitter smile.

He had been managing the Tianhua Ranking for millions of years but had never encountered a young Martial Artist like Jing Yan who could cause such a stir.

How long has it been?

A few months ago, he had just raised Jing Yan’s ranking twice in succession—first from sixty-eighth to fifty-fifth, then from fifty-fifth to thirty-third. Yet today, he had to raise Jing Yan’s ranking once more.

The intelligence was very clear, Jing Yan had straightforwardly slain Dunrong, a member of the Sixth Palace of the Sky Wolf Department from the Luo Jiu Divine Palace.

As the most powerful intelligence organization in the Luli Divine Domain, the Heavenly Flower Tower had detailed information on warriors like Dunrong. Dunrong was a bona fide top-tier One-Star True God. His combat power was enough to crush an ordinary Two-star True God head-on.

Yet such a top-tier One-Star True God was actually slain directly by Jing Yan, who was only in the Nine Stars Void God Realm.

The elder shook his head.

"Raise Jing Yan’s ranking on the Tianhua Ranking to tenth place!" the elder said.

"Yes!" the intelligence officer responded.

A Martial Artist not even two hundred years old managed to reach the tenth position on the Tianhua Ranking!

The Tianhua Ranking Square was boiling.

Sky Flower City, boiling!

This boiling trend, with Sky Flower City as its center, started to spread outward.

To reach the tenth position on the Tianhua Ranking with only a Nine Stars Void God Realm, it seemed unprecedented in the history of the Luli Divine Domain! Perhaps it happened a long, long time ago, but not many could clearly remember.

And many people were not convinced by Jing Yan’s ranking on the Tianhua Ranking. Though they might not dare to criticize the Heavenly Flower Tower, it didn’t stop them from feeling jealous of Jing Yan in their hearts.

Luo Jiu Divine Palace, Fifth Palace Qingmu Department. freeweɓnøvel~com

Xu Yan, the department head, received a communication from the Sixth Palace’s Sky Wolf Department Chief. The Sky Wolf Department Chief demanded that Xu Yan hand over Jing Yan.

Actually, this Sixth Palace Sky Wolf Department Chief was in a difficult position. Although he was the Chief, his status within the Sixth Palace Sky Wolf Department was rather awkward.

The reason for the awkwardness was, of course, because of Yin Hua. Speaking of it, Yin Hua was merely an ordinary member of the Sixth Palace Sky Wolf Department. But the troublesome thing was, Yin Hua was the son of the General Director. Could he, as the Chief, dare to order Yin Hua around?

Moreover, because of Yin Hua’s significant background, many within the Sixth Palace Sky Wolf Department even listened only to Yin Hua and not to his Chief’s orders. For example, Dunrong.

Yin Hua ordered Dunrong to cripple Jing Yan, and Dunrong went without any prior communication with his Chief. And now, Dunrong was killed by Jing Yan, making a fool of themselves, and Yin Hua handed this dirty task to his Chief to deal with.

"Who the hell did I provoke?" The Sixth Palace Sky Wolf Department Chief was speechless and questioned the heavens.

He didn’t want to handle this matter at all but had no choice but to handle it. After all, he was the Sixth Palace Sky Wolf Department Chief, and Dunrong was one of his men. If he didn’t step out, there would certainly be some backlash.

This Chief genuinely did not want to provoke Jing Yan. Jing Yan, a Martial Artist in the Nine Stars Void God Realm, could kill Dunrong. What’s more, Jing Yan was under two hundred years old. Even a fool could see that as long as Jing Yan survived, his future achievements would be impressive, reaching at least an advanced True God Level.

With such a potential powerhouse, the Sixth Palace Sky Wolf Department Chief Gu Yuanqi would be foolish to provoke Jing Yan.

The problem was, he didn’t want to cause trouble for Jing Yan, but he couldn’t make his own decisions.

Having no choice, he could only follow Yin Hua’s orders and demand people from the Fifth Palace Qingmu Department.

Xu Yan did not hesitate at all and sent a message back to Gu Yuanqi, stating that it was impossible for the Fifth Palace Qingmu Department to hand over Jing Yan.

Gu Yuanqi received Xu Yan’s reply and had no thoughts of anger. He informed Yin Hua of the Fifth Palace Qingmu Department’s stance and reported it to the Sky Wolf Department General Director.

The Sky Wolf Department General Director, upon seeing the message on Gu Yuanqi’s Communication Crystal Stone, had a faint emotional fluctuation in his deep eyes.

He stood up and left his Great Hall where he resided.

A moment later, he entered the Great Hall where Guan Lun resided.

The Chief of the Ninety-Nine Divisions all resided within the Jidao Palace.

"Haha, what kind of wind blows today that brings Brother Yin here!" the Qingmu Department General Director stood up to welcome Yin Tianhe.

"Brother Guan, you must be joking," Yin Tianhe squeezed a smile on his face.

Yin Tianhe was a very serious man, usually maintaining an extremely stern expression. A smile was rare on his face. Even when he did smile, it looked very awkward.

"Brother Yin, please sit," Guan Lun invited Yin Tianhe to sit.

Yin Tianhe did not hesitate, taking his seat directly.

"Brother Yin, did you come here for something?" Guan Lun twisted his beard and asked.

"Yes, there’s something I need to discuss with Brother Guan," Yin Tianhe nodded.

Then he narrated the incident of Jing Yan slaying Dunrong.

"Brother Guan, do you know about this matter?" Yin Tianhe looked at Guan Lun.

In truth, Yin Tianhe knew perfectly well that Guan Lun was definitely clear about this matter.

The Sixth Palace Sky Wolf Department Chief Gu Yuanqi had formally requested someone from the Fifth Palace Qingmu Department. Although the Fifth Palace Qingmu Department refused to hand over the person, its department head would definitely report this matter to Guan Lun. Such a significant issue was not something the Fifth Palace Qingmu Department head had the courage or authority to decide independently. The decision of the Fifth Palace Qingmu Department head was essentially Guan Lun’s decision.

"Oh? Is there such a matter?" Guan Lun donned a surprised expression, feigning ignorance.

Yin Tianhe sneered inwardly.

Yin Tianhe was extremely protective of his own, and Jing Yan’s killing of Dunrong was primarily because Dunrong was a member of his Sky Wolf Department. Furthermore, the direct cause of the conflict between Dunrong and Jing Yan involved his son, Yin Hua. Jing Yan’s refusal to give face to his son Yin Hua also infuriated Yin Tianhe.

In Yin Tianhe’s view, no genius could compare to his son.

"Brother Yin, don’t worry, I’ll clarify things shortly, and once I’ve gotten to the bottom of it, I’ll give Brother Yin an answer," Guan Lun said, looking at Yin Tianhe.

"Alright, then I’ll wait for Brother Guan’s answer," Yin Tianhe didn’t linger.

At his level, openly discussing the matter was already a heavy issue. Since Guan Lun said he would provide a response, he surely would, and the required time for this response surely wouldn’t be long.

"Then I won’t disturb you any longer, Brother Guan, farewell." Yin Tianhe stood up, cupped his hands, and left.

Guan Lun also stood, seeing Yin Tianhe out of his Great Hall.

"Jing Yan, this little guy..." Guan Lun chuckled lightly, "In that case, I might as well pay him a visit."
