Chapter 2!

  Lin Lei quietly left and returned to his own courtyard.

  On the way back to his own courtyard from outside the wall of the mansion where Clyde was, Lin Lei's eyebrows were tightly locked. The news he had just received made Lin Lei feel that things were getting complicated.

  "Lin Lei, what have you decided to do?" Deling Kworte emerged from the Coiled Dragon Ring.

  The courtyard where Lin Lei was located was still some distance away from the mansion where Clyde was, and Dillin Kowert, a strong man of the holy domain who had lived for over 5,000 years, did not worry that the fallen leaf lord would discover him.

  "Me?"

  Lin Lei clenched his fists, "Endure, I can only endure."

  Dellin Kwadwo nodded in agreement, Dellin Kwadwo had watched Lin Lei grow up all the way, and to Lin Lei, Dellin Kwadwo was like a grandson.

  He also didn't want Lin Lei to be too impulsive.

  "Lin Lei, don't worry." Delin Kowert stroked his beard with confidence. "That guy called Leaf probably just happened to be traveling in the same direction as Clyde. He definitely won't stay with Clyde for long. The past Clyde was a king of a kingdom, and his status is much higher than Leaf's. And now Clyde... even Fenley Kingdom has been destroyed, he can't even be considered anything. According to our information, the new Holy See chosen by the Church of Light shouldn't be Hess City either. This Leaf won't stay in Hess City for too long."

  Lin Lei nodded.

  The old holy capital 'Fenlay City' has been destroyed by the army of the Monster Mountains, and it has become a ruin. The people of the Holy See of Light absolutely do not allow such things to happen again. Naturally... they will not set this new holy capital in Hesse City, which is closest to the border between the two sides.

  After all, the king of the Magic Beast Mountain Range 'Emperor Lin' said that the magic beasts of the Magic Beast Mountain Range might occupy half of the territory of the Sacred Alliance. Now they only occupy one-third, if it's half, Hester City is also included.

  The people of the Holy See of Light, such as 'Haiting', fundamentally did not have the confidence to contend with the god-level 'Dilin'.

  Although the Holy See of Light also has hidden powers that have not been brought out, once they are brought out to really contend with Imperial Lin, the outcome will only be that the Holy See of Light's accumulation of over 10,000 years is destroyed in an instant.

  Haiting didn't have the guts to fight.

  "Wait." Lin Lei took a deep breath, trying to keep himself calm. Now that Clyde's whereabouts were known, as long as he didn't make any mistakes, Clyde wouldn't be able to escape.

  In an inn across the street from the mansion Shak purchased, this inn was also where Lin Lei's two hired servants often monitored Shak and others.

  That day.

  Wearing a very ordinary sleeveless sweatshirt, Lin Lei's chest muscles naturally appeared, and his strong and powerful arms even more showed off his great strength. On his back was a heavy sword.

  Heavy Sword Warrior!

  Lin Lei's attire is quite ordinary because warriors value training and strong warriors are mostly physically robust, with many using heavy swords.

  "Boss, two plates of barbecue and two bottles of Bullfighter." Lin Lei's low voice sounded.

  "Please sit down, sir." The waiter saw Lin Lei and his attitude was respectful to the extreme. Lin Lei directly chose a seat near the inside, which could see the scene in front of Clyde's mansion through the door and window.

  The waiter immediately pulled out a chair and respectfully invited Lin Lei to take a seat.

  "Please wait a moment, sir." The waiter said with a smile, and at this time another waiter had already brought two bottles of "Matador". Matador is a very strong wine, the favorite of some powerful warriors.

  The waiter secretly glanced at the heavy sword on Lin Lei's shoulder and was shocked in his heart: "Oh, master, such a thick and long heavy sword, judging from its color, it shouldn't be ordinary steel. It should weigh several hundred kilograms, this gentleman is indeed a powerful warrior."

  In the tavern, as waiters, they would also secretly observe each guest when they were bored. Over time, they had also developed their sharp eyesight. The waiter judged that Lin Lei was a powerful warrior from his easy-going appearance and heavy sword style.

  The 'older brother' of the two brothers hired by Lin Lei from a nearby village immediately walked over.

  "Bring some barbecue back for BeiBei to eat." Lin Lei ordered without waiting for the other person to speak.

  "Yes, sir."

  The older of the two brothers didn't have anything important to do either, and immediately followed Lin Lei's orders, bringing some roasted meat back with him.

  Then Lin Lei sat quietly in the tavern and drank.

  Lin Lei drank slowly, a bottle of wine could be drunk for two or three hours, and he was paying attention to the entrance of the Clyde mansion at the same time.

  In the evening hours.

  There were minstrels singing loudly at the edge of the tavern, and inside the tavern was also very noisy, with many warriors shouting and making a ruckus.

  Due to this disaster, Hes City was more bustling than ever before.

  Even in this tavern, you can see many powerful warriors. Most of the warriors are very generous and they are all showing off their strength by arm-wrestling each other.

  "Ten thousand gold coins, the winner gets ten thousand gold coins." The host beside him immediately shouted loudly.

  For many powerful warriors who have escaped disaster, 10,000 gold coins are only a small amount, but not particularly large either.

  "Come, this ten thousand gold coins are mine." A robust brown-haired man with a height of over two meters and a waist as wide as a bear's, whose arms were as thick as an average person's thigh, sat down.

  "Hmm, let's compare with you."

  Another red-haired man with a similar build to Lin Lei walked over, and the two immediately stretched out their arms. As soon as they clasped hands, the muscles in both of their arms began to bulge prominently.

  The men holding large wine cups next to them shouted out one by one.

  "These days are quite interesting." Lin Lei knew that waiting for Luo Ye and the others to leave was extremely dull. Who knows how long Luo Ye and the others would stay? One day, two days, or even ten days or half a month?

  Lin Lei also looked back with interest.

  "These two are quite skilled, at least at the level of a sixth-grade warrior." Lin Lei nodded to himself, and indeed, Hester City was a gathering place for experts.

  The two men's muscles bulged, with a force of over 10,000 jin bursting forth.

  "Drink!" The brown-haired man with a thick arm as big as an ordinary person's thigh suddenly let out a loud shout, his arm muscles twisted like earthworms, making people suspect that they might burst at any moment.

  The red-haired man also flushed with anger, without retreating in the slightest.

  "Ka-chunk, ka-chunk..." The table they were leaning on with their elbows also started shaking.

  The tables and chairs in this tavern are all made of steel, sturdy indeed. Moreover, a skilled warrior can control their strength precisely when arm-wrestling, to the point where they can even do it while floating in mid-air. Yet at this moment, the force is affecting the table, clearly both of them have reached their limits.

  "Haha, come on, Harold!"

  "Harold, for crying out loud, come on!"

  "Second brother, don't lose for me."

  ...some of the drinking warriors around them started shouting loudly, and gradually the one called 'Harold' with a tall and strong body and extremely thick arms took advantage, the red-haired warrior immediately became anxious and desperately used force.

  "Cheers!"

  Nahalod let out a loud roar, suddenly pinning the opponent's wrist down and slamming it heavily onto the desktop, even leaving an indentation on the steel surface.

  "Haha, I won!" Harold burst out laughing.

  "Move over, Second Brother, I'll take this. This foolish big guy still thinks he can win 10,000 gold coins? Hmph." A one-eyed red-haired warrior walked over.

  The tavern's night was boisterous, those rowdy warriors shouted loudly, and the minstrels singing loudly on the edge of the tavern also sang hard for that little gold coin.

  Riotous

  However, in this tavern, there were still three or four people who remained quiet. The surrounding warriors also knew better than to disturb them. These people who mixed with the outside world had some insight. They knew which people could be provoked and which ones couldn't.

  The next morning, Lin Lei had just sat down for a short while.

  "Really?"

  Lin Lei suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure - Lord Rakuyo.

  That thin and beggar-like Lord Route, was walking out of Clyde's residence under the accompaniment of two ascetics wearing hemp clothes and bare feet.

  "Left? But all that's left is fallen leaves and two ascetics." Lin Lei was puzzled.

  He knew that there were many ascetics this time, and among them, there were also many masters. Now only three people have come out.

  "Continue waiting." Lin Lei took a light sip of wine and continued waiting.

  Clyde and Shack saw off Rakuyo and others at the gate.

  "Father, I forgot to tell you something." Shaque said with a slap on his forehead. "Father, Lord Lin Lei was with us some days ago, but he left early in the morning and headed north."

  "Lin Lei."

  Clyde almost shouted in surprise.

  This Lin Lei almost took his life twice.

  "What's wrong, Your Majesty?" Shaku asked in puzzlement. In his view, this wasn't a big deal after all. The Fenley Kingdom had been destroyed and the Fenley royal family was now just a name without substance. It would be strange if Lin Lei continued to serve them.

  "Is he with you? Does he know about this?" Clyde asked immediately.

  "He knew he was still staying here for a night." Shak muttered.

  Clyde's heart trembled: "This Lin Lei must be in Hester City." Clyde knew that Lin Lei would not simply leave after wanting to kill him.

  "It's all right, there are still a group of ascetics living here." Clyde comforted himself.

  However, when the ascetics left, I left with them. Clyde made up his mind that only by following these ascetics would he feel safe in his heart.

  Clyde looked carefully around him in all directions.

  He even had a feeling that Lin Lei was watching him around.

  One day passed, two days passed…… Lin Lei spent most of his time in the tavern, only returning to his place at midnight to sleep. There was once someone who came to bother Lin Lei, but after being kicked out of the tavern by Lin Lei, no one dared to disturb him again.

  Six days have passed in the blink of an eye.

  In these six days, only fallen leaves and two ascetics have left, while the other ascetics remain.

  Inside Clyde's mansion.

  "Why are you all in such a hurry to leave?" Clyde looked at the representative of the three ascetic cultivators in front of him and advised.

  One of the elderly men with golden long hair said indifferently, "Clyde, we must go to New Holy City. We have stayed in your place for these days and disturbed you. We will leave first."

  The three ascetics ignored Clyde's persuasion and left directly.

  "Gentlemen, are you going to New Sanctuary? I'd like to go too. Why don't we go together?" Clyde said immediately, and ordered his son Shack, "Shack, get ready quickly, let's set off right away."

  Clyde didn't feel safe at all right now.

  Alone, a Caesar under Lin Lei and that abnormal magical beast, Clyde didn't think the Caesar could absolutely protect him.

  "Come with us?" The old man with golden hair frowned.

  This time they set out, actually not going to New Holy Capital, but having a secret mission.

  "No, there is a strict order within the Vatican." The old man with golden hair said coldly.

  The other two also gave Clyde a cold look: "If you follow us, the result is what you want." With that, the three of them left, leaving Clyde stunned.

  Clyde didn't expect that these ascetics wouldn't even take him with them.

  "Gentlemen." Clyde chased out of the living room door, but more than 50 ascetics had already walked out of the gate one by one. Not a single ascetic turned back to look at him.

  Clyde thought for a moment, but didn't dare to follow. Although the doctrine of the Church of Light is righteous and benevolent, when it comes down to it, they are absolutely ruthless. Now Clyde was of no great use to the Church of Light, and those ascetics would definitely dare to kill him directly.

  "Father." Shak walked over and looked at Clyde.

  Clyde furrowed his brow, pondered for a moment, and ordered directly: "Depart from the back door, we're leaving now, yes, right now. Every minute wasted is another minute of danger."
