Don't Interrupt My Immortal Cultivation
Chapter 165
Qin Luoshuang's support did not play a role. Mingzhou entered a state of emergency in the first place, and a large number of imperial soldiers blocked the entire Huli area, investigating all suspicious individuals.
Governor Ge Guangling mobilized the army and surrounded the entire town. The private soldiers of the Yuanhua Group nervously confronted the imperial soldiers.
Until a helicopter with a pagoda crown landed.
A team of elegantly dressed attendants came down from the helicopter, laying a luxurious carpet on the wilderness, spraying perfume and petals in the air. Two attendants knelt side by side under the helicopter door, and then a golden-red boot stepped on the back of the attendant, followed by a glimpse of a golden-red robe with red gemstones embedded in it, and then a staff with gold and red colors.
Elder Lin Yabo of the Imperial Elder Council walked down from the helicopter.
Governor Ge Guangling bowed: "Welcome, Elder."
The ten thousand imperial soldiers behind him all half-knelt down: "Welcome, Elder! The empire will last forever, for generations to come, and glory will be eternal!"
Elder Lin Yabo nodded slightly, and everyone stood up.
Ge Guangling stepped forward: "Elder Lin, the private armed forces of the Yuanhua Group have far exceeded the scope allowed by the empire. With such a big incident, I can no longer cover it up. I hope Elder Lin can understand."
Elder Lin looked at him, his thin and wrinkled face showing no joy or sorrow, like a statue with too many carved strokes.
After a moment.
He said, "I can disband the private armed forces of the Yuanhua Group. I can hand over their prohibited equipment, and I can even give you the Yuanhua Group."
Ge Guangling looked at him, his eyes showing an unclear expression, but there was no fear or surprise.
Elder Lin's expression remained unchanged as he said, "But, you must support the aristocratic system at the next highest meeting, support the division of ranks based on caste and bloodline, and support the legalization of slavery and human trafficking."
Silence flowed between the two, as if there was an invisible confrontation happening between them.
Elder Lin stood on the deep red carpet, Governor Ge stood on the wasteland, seemingly a comparison of their positions.
After a moment, Governor Ge spoke first.
"Alright."
His voice was slightly hoarse, and his expression was somewhat dim.
Elder Lin's cold expression remained unchanged. After receiving the reply, he turned and walked towards the helicopter, while the two attendants remained kneeling there.
Suddenly, Governor Ge shouted, "A body of a killed snakehead was found by the border checkpoint next to the highway. The minibus the killer was in came from Changshan County! It passed through East Qin Prefecture and Zhongzhou!"
Elder Lin did not respond at all. He stepped on the back of the attendant and boarded the helicopter.
Soon, the helicopter took off and left.
Governor Ge waved his hand, "Hein, order the troops to release the west side and let them go."
A slightly funny-looking general with a high forehead and hairline stood at attention and saluted, "Yes, Governor!"
Governor Ge's second-in-command, the director of the State Government Hall, Guo Guangpei, asked softly, "Confirming that it is the Li Man-class super combat unit?"
Governor Ge did not speak. Lin Jiaxin, the fourth-ranked official in the governor's office, answered, "From the extent of the damage caused, it is highly likely, and they are also equipped with unknown advanced weapons, with an unknown number of personnel."
Guo Guangpei looked confused, "It sounds like the way of combat advocated by the Highest Council or Elder Mo, but their strongest combat unit is not the Fuliye-class? The Laurent-class and Laplace-class are not yet mature individuals, and the Li Man-class only exists on paper. Why would a completely mature Li Man-class combat unit suddenly appear with an unknown number?"
Lin Jiaxin said lightly, "No one said it was them."
Guo Guangpei exclaimed, "Then who is it? Sheng Huaixuan or Wang Bo'an? It can't be that little sheriff who hits people with a big hammer, right?"
No one answered this question.

The day after Lin Wen returned to the county, the county government received a notice from the imperial headquarters:
The ministerial meeting is being held in advance, and local officials must immediately go to the imperial capital, Shenjing, without delay.
The ministerial meeting was supposed to be held in a month, but it was suddenly disrupted, causing many of Qin Luoshuang's subordinates to be affected. Many of her tasks were only half done, and she couldn't leave Changshan County.
Qin Luoshuang wanted to select some trustworthy people to accompany Lin Wen to the meeting, but when Yun Zhixing learned about this, he thought it was a great opportunity.
He immediately went to find Sheriff Lin, and Lin Wen didn't care and casually agreed, but was immediately vetoed by Qin Luoshuang.
Yun Zhixing immediately brought Sheriff Lin out, but Qin Luoshuang made a phone call.
"Oh, okay, you arrange it, you arrange it."
After hanging up the phone, Yun Zhixing looked lifeless, at a loss, but he was unwilling to lose this opportunity to observe Sheriff Lin up close.
He had no choice but to use his long-hidden trick.
He begged and pleaded, even attempted suicide by cutting his wrist.
Qin Luoshuang kicked away the knife that had already cut into his flesh and sighed, "Fine, go then."
Yun Zhixing suddenly became overjoyed, full of energy, and accompanied Lin Wen on the road with ten crows. Just by looking at this lineup, it seemed as if the sheriff was controlled by the director of the Security Bureau.
Qin Luoshuang urgently prepared all the necessary information to deal with possible attacks.
She had a sense of foreboding, as if the early convening of this meeting was because of Lin Wen.
Before leaving, Qin Luoshuang instructed, "Let me say a few words."
"The ministerial meeting is a regular meeting of the imperial headquarters. The imperial headquarters is currently focused on imperial affairs, and factional struggles are not mainstream. If handled properly, you can gain many benefits."
"So, this time is both dangerous and an opportunity."
"You must be more restrained this time. You were just kicked out of the East Prefecture faction, and now you don't even have a faction. You don't have any support from any imperial-level officials, but instead have imperial-level enemies."
"The imperial capital is the power center of the empire. If you randomly encounter someone on the street, they could be a relative of a high-ranking official."
"The situation in Changshan County is actually very dangerous right now. We are still hanging in the air without landing. You must not offend anyone everywhere. We already have enough pressure."
These simple words took more than an hour to say, even Yun Zhixing couldn't bear to watch anymore and interrupted:
"Enough, enough, who can remember all that? Let's go, Sheriff Lin."
Pulling Lin Wen into the official car, the rest of the group followed suit and left.
Only Qin Luoshuang remained, her fists clenched, determined to give him a good lesson when he returned.
The Imperial Capital of Shenjing was located in the northeastern part of the empire, over a thousand kilometers away from Changshan County.
Lin Wen and his group first arrived at the capital of East Qin Prefecture, Danyang, then took a plane and arrived at the international airport of Shenjing Imperial Capital before nightfall.
Due to the air restriction within the fifth ring of Shenjing, the Imperial Capital International Airport was built in the suburbs. After getting off the plane, Lin Wen and his group took a car into the city.
Shenjing Imperial Capital was the largest city in the empire, covering an area of 76,000 square kilometers with a permanent population of 68 million. All the important departments and power institutions of the empire were located here, making it the most developed city.
However, the cost was equally high. Due to its huge economic and political dual suction effect, a ring of poverty surrounded the Imperial Capital. All the satellite towns around the capital were dilapidated, with large slums and ragged beggars everywhere.
But everything changed after the official car crossed the Jinshui Bridge. Skyscrapers and neon lights came into view, everything modern and colorful, as if suddenly traveling from ancient times to the present.
Lin Wen had experienced this feeling many times. The development of the empire was too abnormal, with a huge gap between the rich and the poor, and a huge difference in the level of development between regions.
The headquarters of the empire was within the zero ring of the Imperial Capital.
This was a specific area, a region specially drawn in the center of the first ring to display its supreme status, the core of the empire.
The first thing Lin Wen saw was the Emperor Tower in the center of the zero ring, towering 646 meters high.
It was a colossal structure, standing in the night sky, with no other building reaching half its height.
The headquarters of the empire was on the west side of the zero ring, a large group of buildings, with a huge pentagonal building in the center.
"That's the central building of the empire's headquarters, the main office area for all departments," Yun Zhixing said.
On the way, Yun Zhixing kept talking to him, but Lin Wen was mostly in a drowsy state.
After arriving at the guest house of the empire's headquarters, Lin Wen went straight to sleep.
It wasn't until he woke up the next day and saw that his primordial spirit had recovered to 25% that Lin Wen breathed a sigh of relief.
But this was only enough for self-preservation, he originally wanted to stir things up.
As soon as he woke up, Yun Zhixing brought him a bowl of oatmeal, an egg, and a glass of milk, and personally helped him wash up.
Lin Wen felt something was off and said, "Don't stick to me, a man should act like a man."
A shocking light burst out of Yun Zhixing's eyes as he asked, "What should a man be like?"
Lin Wen thought this guy might have some issues, but didn't pay much attention. He was contemplating his grand plan and casually replied:
"Of course, it's having the courage to face all difficulties without fear, the perseverance to never give up in the face of all setbacks, and the belief to never despair in the face of all darkness."
"Exactly!"
It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from bit.ly/3iBfjkV.
Yun Zhixing suddenly became excited and shouted.
"You're absolutely right, that's what a man should be!"
"How can I give up because of a little difficulty?"
"She doesn't love me, it must be because I'm not doing enough! As long as I'm not afraid, don't give up, don't despair, and forge ahead, I will definitely have a bright future!"
Yun Zhixing, who had regained his confidence in an instant, was full of gratitude for Lin Wen. He immediately got into work mode and said:
"Sheriff Lin, the ministerial meeting starts this afternoon, let's go visit the ministers first."
Lin Wen agreed. He remembered Qin Luoshuang saying that it seemed possible to dig out some benefits from these ministers.
So, Yun Zhixing accompanied Lin Wen out of the guest house, with the headquarters building of the empire not far away.
The decorations here were more retro, with gray brick streets, fountains, benches, and classical street lamps. Although they looked ordinary, in the expensive zero ring, they were the ultimate luxury.
