Chapter 1340 Lu Chen is a troublemaker
Then, Lu Chen walked up to Manager Wang, stepped on his chest, and said coldly, "You'd better behave yourself."
At this time, Manager Wang had long lost his previous arrogance. His face was pale, and blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth, but he still cursed unwillingly: "Boy, do you know who you are against? My brother-in-law is an elder of the Huaxia Holy Land and has the cultivation level of a mid-stage Golden Immortal!
If you dare to touch me, I will make you wish you were dead!"
However, Lu Chen seemed to be deaf to these threats. A cold light flashed in his eyes, and he directly activated the Chaos Dao Sheng Jue and performed the soul-searching technique.
A faint light shot out from Lu Chen's fingertips and instantly penetrated into the center of Wang Guanshi's brow. Wang Guanshi's body shook violently, and then he let out a scream of extreme pain, as if his soul was being mercilessly torn apart.
A moment later, Manager Wang's memories flooded into Lu Chen's mind like a tide.
Scenes of secretly accepting bribes, oppressing merchants in the city, and even colluding with foreign enemies for personal gain emerged one by one.
These memories made Lu Chen's face even gloomier, and a raging rage burned in his heart, but now was not the time to kill him, otherwise he would die without any evidence.
Lu Chen slowly withdrew his hand, looked down at Manager Wang who was trembling on the ground, and then said coldly: "Take me to see your brother-in-law now. If you dare to play tricks, I will let you know what it means to want to die."
Manager Wang was already pale with fear at this time. He climbed up from the ground tremblingly, barely standing firm, not daring to resist at all.
In his opinion, since Lu Chen called Lan Caiyi "senior sister", her cultivation level must not be very high. Once she met her brother-in-law, she would definitely make Lu Chen die miserably.
At this time, Lu Chen turned to Lan Caiyi and the others and said, "Why are you still standing there? Let's go to the City Lord's Mansion together. I want to seek justice for you."
As soon as these words were spoken, an uproar immediately arose. The monks around them began to whisper to each other, and the sound of discussion surged like a tide.
"This kid really doesn't know how to live or die. He actually dares to openly provoke the Chinese Holy Land. Isn't he afraid of death? Or does he simply not know how powerful the Chinese Holy Land is?" said someone among the onlookers.
"Who does he think he is? An elder in the middle stage of Golden Immortal is not so easy to deal with, not to mention that there is a powerful person in the late stage of Daluo Golden Immortal in charge of the Chinese Holy Land." Someone else echoed, and then shook his head secretly, thinking that Lu Chen was courting his own death.
However, amidst the numerous voices of doubt and ridicule, there were also some who expressed different opinions: "This kid is really brave! At least he dared to stand up and challenge authority."
After hearing what Lu Chen said, Lan Caiyi, Li Aotian and Zhong Qihang all looked worried.
They knew full well that the Chinese Holy Land was powerful, far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Therefore, the three of them spoke in unison.
Lan Caiyi stepped forward first and said softly, "Lu Chen, it's not too late to leave now. You should leave here quickly! It's best to go as far away as possible."
"That's right, Junior Brother Lu, you should leave quickly while there is still time. We will take care of things here for you." Li Aotian quickly agreed.
Zhong Qihang was even more direct: "Junior Brother Lu, this is not the time to be a hero. Have you ever thought about the consequences?"
However, facing the dissuasion of several people, Lu Chen just smiled slightly, glanced at everyone with a firm gaze, and said calmly and forcefully: "You don't have to worry about me. Now that we have come this far, there is no reason to turn back.
I believe that the reason why the Holy Land of China has reached this point today is not due to the decision of the top leaders, but because these termites have ruined the reputation of the Holy Land of China.
If the higher-ups of the Huaxia Holy Land knew the truth behind these things, they would definitely not blame me."
Lan Caiyi wanted to say something, but when she saw Lu Chen's determined eyes, she could only sigh and said nothing more.
"Never mind, I'll just go with you. The worst that can happen is death."
Seeing this, Lu Chen smiled slightly, and his tone became gentle: "Don't worry, you will be fine with me here."
Hearing this, Lan Caiyi, Li Aotian and Zhong Qihang looked at each other, a hint of hesitation flashed in their eyes, but they finally nodded.
So, under the leadership of Lu Chen, the four of them walked side by side towards the City Lord's Mansion.
Along the way, many cultivators cast strange looks at them, and some even secretly laughed at their recklessness, but Lu Chen and his group were not shaken by this.
This matter spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and soon spread throughout the entire city of immortal cultivators.
Halfway through the journey, they encountered some merchants who had also been oppressed by Manager Wang. When these people saw Lu Chen and his companions, they immediately gathered around them and expressed their support and admiration for them.
"Friend Lu, we are willing to follow you to the City Lord's Mansion." Facing these enthusiastic supporters, Lu Chen felt a sense of sadness in his heart.
How many bad things must these bastards have done to make so many people stand up and resist?
Thinking of this, Lu Chen became more determined to reorganize the sect. He knew very well that he was not acting rashly, but wanted to let everyone know that the master of the Chinese Holy Land would personally lead them to protect their interests and seek justice for them.
It is worth mentioning that with the development and expansion of the sect, the layout of the Chinese Holy Land has changed. No cities are allowed to be built except in the sect’s hinterland and within five kilometers around the sect.
According to the plan, a city for cultivators will be built within a radius of five kilometers.
Lu Chen could have taken everyone directly to the heart of the sect to meet Yan Feiyu, but he didn't want to do that. He wanted more people to see how he punished these parasites.
Soon, under the leadership of Manager Wang, Lu Chen, Lan Caiyi, and thousands of others arrived in front of a magnificent palace in the center of the city.
There is a huge square in front of the hall, so the arrival of the crowd does not seem crowded.
This scene immediately attracted the attention of many monks, who stopped to watch.
Two guards stood at the entrance of the hall. Seeing the huge crowd coming, they immediately realized that something big must have happened.
One of them quickly slipped into the hall, probably to report to the higher-ups.
The other guard, noticing the bruised and battered Steward Wang in front of the crowd, immediately frowned and asked, "Steward Wang, what's wrong with you? And what are these people doing?"
Seeing the people from the City Lord's Mansion, Steward Wang instantly gained confidence and shouted, "This group of unruly people gathered together to cause trouble and even injured me. Quickly notify the guards to apprehend these unruly people."
Upon hearing this, the guard immediately realized the seriousness of the matter. He hurriedly took out a talisman from his storage ring, then infused it with immortal energy and activated it instantly.
Suddenly, a beam of light shot up into the sky, emitting a brilliant light in the air like a flare...
