Chapter 305: Visitors from All Sides

Tonight, compared to the past, Heifeng Shan could be said to have become much livelier. Besides Li Yanbing and Princess Qingyuan, whom Lin Feng was more familiar with, there were also some people he had never seen before.

However, at this moment, whether they were the high-status elders of major sects, the heaven-favored children of powerful clans, the warlords who intimidated entire regions, or even the princes of the Great Xia, they all stood silently on the mountaintop, waiting in silence.

In fact, they had already been here for some time. It was just that Lin Feng had been busy carving the Black Steel stone statues and distracted by the situation in the Yinjian, so he hadn't noticed anyone calling for him here at all.

After all, what was buried here was only a wooden puppet; the feedback it could provide to Lin Feng certainly couldn't compare to the Gui Tie Jiang Ren.

Therefore, these people could only wait here honestly. For them, waiting for a powerhouse was a perfectly normal thing. Even if the other party didn't appear today, they would still come tomorrow if there was a chance.

Li Yanbing was currently standing in front of the mound on the mountaintop. Although she had already bowed to this mound several times before, after waiting for a while, she had no choice but to bite the bullet, bow again, and call out:

"Junior Li Yanbing pays respects to the senior Qitian Dasheng. I ask that you please appear and meet us!"

As her voice fell, the mound, which had been completely still, suddenly loosened. Immediately, a wooden puppet painted with red lacquer that looked somewhat worn slowly stood up from the mound.

Seeing this scene, the crowd, who had been somewhat disappointed, instantly perked up. Even before Lin Feng could ask, these people bowed to the wooden puppet one after another.

"Ma Mingyuan, current head of the Northwest Ma family, pays respects to Qitian Dasheng!"

"Liu Daluo, Sixth Elder of the Paper-Making Hall, pays respects to Qitian Dasheng!"

"Lu Hanxiang, thirteenth-generation descendant of the Guiyi Dao, pays respects to Qitian Dasheng!"

"..."

The voices of these people from various clans and sects suddenly resounded across this desolate mountaintop, making this originally incredibly desolate place lively.

Lin Feng, who had just shifted his attention over, couldn't help but be stunned after seeing these people. He really hadn't expected that so many people would come this time, and they were all people he had never seen before.

Soon, the voices of everyone paying their respects gradually faded, and the entire mountaintop returned to its previous cold and quiet state.

Lin Feng then controlled the wooden puppet to look toward Li Yanbing. This matter was undoubtedly related to her, so looking for her was definitely the right move.

"Reporting to Senior, these are all important personnel from various clans and sect forces. Today, they came to find this junior together, hoping that this junior could introduce them to you."

"Because there are so many visitors and the matter is of great importance, this junior could not make a decision, so I brought them directly to pay respects to you. I hope Senior will be magnanimous."

Li Yanbing quickly explained the current situation to Lin Feng, and then she stopped speaking, waiting to see what decision Lin Feng would make next.

With things having developed to this point, it was no longer something she, a mere Inspector of Jiangzhou, could control.

In fact, after Lin Feng beheaded the Incense Master and displayed his incomparably fierce combat power, his existence was already capable of causing a huge impact on the entire Rengian.

Now, every clan and sect had to consider what Lin Feng's next plans were. For this reason, they had all sent their important figures to pay their respects.

Ordinary people might not know what channels there were to see Qitian Dasheng, but for these people, they knew at least a little.

So when they arrived in Jiangzhou, they went straight to find Li Yanbing. Facing people from so many forces, Li Yanbing really had no way to decline.

"Why have you all come here?"

Lin Feng had roughly guessed some of these people's thoughts, but it was clear he didn't need to say it directly, so several blood-red characters instantly formed on the ground.

The scarlet blood characters formed a strong contrast with the surrounding white snow, making them clearly visible even at night.

As these blood characters came into view, the breathing of everyone present suddenly hitched. Afterward, they began to quickly consider their rhetoric. One person was the fastest, standing out first to say this to the wooden puppet:

"Reporting to Senior Qitian Dasheng, this junior is Liang Haochuan of the Yanzhou Liang family. Coming to pay respects to you this time is for the sake of the world."

"Now that the Great Xia Dynasty has collapsed, the barbarians are invading, natural and man-made disasters are occurring constantly in every province, smoke of war is rising everywhere, and the common people are suffering. The people of the world are like wild grass in the fields, facing storms and wildfires at any time!"

"Therefore, this junior dares to request that you step forward to reorganize the mountains and rivers, recover the northern provinces, establish a new imperial dynasty, and return a peaceful and prosperous age to the world."

This Liang Haochuan looked to have sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, with a tall and straight figure. The words he spoke were sonorous and powerful, exceptionally firm, as if he were a hot-blooded youth truly concerned for the people of the world.

It was a pity that for this rhetoric, Lin Feng not only felt no heartbeat in his heart, but he even wanted to laugh.

He was no longer the muddled wage earner from his previous life. He buried a large number of corpses every day and had seen all the states of the world; he knew the plight of the common people today a hundred times better than this young master of a powerful clan.

Wanting to use this kind of flattery and moral coercion to make him do things—did he, a clan descendant, even deserve to?

After Liang Haochuan finished saying these words, the wooden puppet waved its hand directly, with no other response.

The meaning in this was obvious. If this guy wanted to say such nonsense again, Lin Feng wouldn't mind letting him go and experience the suffering of the common people himself.

Realizing that his flattery had hit a wall, Liang Haochuan immediately apologized: "This junior was young and ignorant, and my words were arrogant. I hope Senior will be magnanimous."

At the same time, he took out the gift he had brought, held it respectfully in his hands, and bowed as he presented it to the wooden puppet.

Lin Feng didn't care much about his rhetoric, but the gift he brought was exactly what Lin Feng needed right now.

He didn't know where this guy had found out, but the thing he brought was exactly Dragon Vein Grave Soil, currently contained in a wooden box.

Now that Lin Feng had several highly valuable Guiyi in his hands, it was exactly the time he needed these Gui-nurturing items.

"No more of this this time. If there is a next time, there will be heavy punishment!"

Seeing this item, Lin Feng used the Shadow Gui Domain to take it away directly, and left this sentence on the ground.

"Yes, this junior acknowledges my crime!"

Seeing that Qitian Dasheng had given such a response, Liang Haochuan felt slightly relieved, and at the same time, he realized that the other party had already seen through his purpose.

Seeing this situation, the others also understood one after another that the Qitian Dasheng before them was definitely not a simple character. It was clearly impossible to use those high-sounding reasons to persuade the other party!

After Liang Haochuan stepped back, an old man who looked relatively steady stood out, bowed to the wooden puppet, and said: "Greetings, Senior Qitian Dasheng. This old man is Dugu Shan, current sect leader of the Qingyun Sword Sect. Coming to pay respects to you this time is for the sake of this junior's grandmaster."

"This junior's grandmaster, the Sword Master, was schemed against by the Incense Master, and later beheaded by you. This is the grandmaster's tribulation!"

"However, this old man still wishes to welcome back the grandmaster's corpse to complete the funeral rites... If you can return the grandmaster's corpse to this junior, the sect is willing to reward you with a Saint's relic."

The reason this guy came was clearly much more legitimate, at least not that kind of empty, high-sounding righteousness.

It was a pity that the Sword Master had already been transformed into a Jie Gui by Lin Feng. Even if Lin Feng wanted to return it to them, I'm afraid they would find it hard to bear.

"The Saint's corpse has already been suppressed in the Yinjian!"

Thus, Lin Feng directly condensed a few blood characters as a reply to him.

"This... sigh, thank you, Senior. This is a small token of this junior's sect's sincerity. I hope you will accept it with a smile."

After seeing these blood characters clearly, the old man was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and bowed to Lin Feng, while also taking out a gift.

This item was surprisingly a Mountain God's Offering Stele. Clearly, they had also inquired about Lin Feng's needs, so they had specially brought such a gift.

After a Saint dies, they will turn into a terrifying Jie Gui. If there is no effective method of handling it, it will definitely cause a huge catastrophe. This is a consensus among Gui-tamers.

Therefore, these disciples and grand-disciples not only had to honestly accept the reason Lin Feng gave, but in a sense, they also had to thank Lin Feng for handling such a big trouble for them.

Of course, whether they were truly grateful to Lin Feng in their hearts was unknown, but Lin Feng accepted this Offering Stele. Who told him he needed these things right now?

Soon, a middle-aged man wearing a python robe walked in front of the wooden puppet. Lin Feng couldn't help but be stunned after seeing the other party. ===== CHAPTER 306 =====
