"Let's go to the Castellan's Mansion first. Although the Castellan of Lin City belongs to the Tianwu Empire and doesn't belong to our Wind Sword School, he can be considered an outer member of the Wind Sword School." Elder Jin waved his hand, and the Flying Lord immediately flew towards the Castellan's Mansion.
The Tianwu Empire was one of the three empires under the jurisdiction of the Wind Sword School. Even the monarch had to respect the Wind Sword School, so the Castellan's Mansion was naturally considered a part of the Wind Sword School.
After receiving the report of the arrival of the Flying Spirit Boat, the Castellan of Lin City, Xia Chenxi's father, Xia Tao, quickly came out of the Castellan's Mansion in shock. He didn't expect to see the Flying Spirit Boat flying straight towards the Castellan's Mansion as soon as he came out.
For a moment, Xia Tao couldn't help but feel anxious. He didn't know who was on the Flying Spirit Boat and why they were here. Although he knew that his beloved daughter, Xia Chenxi, was a core disciple of the Wind Sword School, he thought that a mere core disciple would definitely not be able to use such a powerful Flying Artifact.
The Flying Spirit Boat quickly landed in the biggest courtyard of the Castellan's Mansion. Xia Tao immediately flew up and quickly rushed to the place where the Flying Spirit Boat landed. As the Castellan of Lin City, he naturally had the strength of the Spirit Refinement Realm. Otherwise, how could he rule such a large city?
Immediately after, a group of fully armed guards of the Castellan's Mansion arrived one after another, ready to fight.
"Are you the Castellan of Lin City, Xia Tao?" Elder Jin's dignified voice sounded.
Hearing the person calling out his name, Xia Tao was slightly surprised. He quickly bowed and said, "I am indeed Xia Tao. May I know who you are?"
"Don't panic. I am the Deputy Lord of the Wind Sword School, Jin Lei." Elder Jin introduced himself so that Xia Tao wouldn't misunderstand. Although he didn't care about a mere Castellan of Lin City, this was Lu Xuan's hometown after all.
Xia Tao immediately heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Elder Jin's words. He hurriedly waved his hand to dismiss the group of guards. Since they were from the Wind Sword Sect, there was naturally no danger. After all, Lin City was also under the Wind Sword Sect's rule.
But then he became nervous again. Unexpectedly, the Deputy Suzerain of the Wind Sword School had come in person. For him, this was an absolutely important person. He did not know why he suddenly came to his small Lin City. If he had something to announce, he should go to Tianwu City, the capital of the Tianwu Empire.
"So it is the Vice Sect Master who has arrived. Please forgive me for not going out to greet you. May I know what brings the Vice Sect Master here?" Xia Tao bowed his head, not daring to look at Elder Jin and the others.
As the Deputy Suzerain of the Wind Sword School, Elder Jin had great power. If he wanted to, as long as he paid the price, it would not be a problem for him to change the Emperor of the Tianwu Empire. If he wanted to abolish a mere Castellan like him, it would be a piece of cake.
"Haha, no need to be so courteous. I told you not to panic. Your Lin City has produced a great talent." Elder Jin laughed out loud.
Returning to Lin City, which he had not seen for a long time, Lu Xuan was also excited. The last time he came in a hurry, he left in a hurry again. He did not stay at all. Unable to contain his excitement, he hurriedly walked forward and said, "Lu Xuan greets Uncle Xia."
Suddenly hearing Lu Xuan's voice, Xia Tao was slightly stunned. He raised his head, saw Lu Xuan, and said in surprise, "Nephew Lu?"
Previously, after Lu Xuan won first place in Lin City in the entrance examination of the Wind Sword School, Elder Xu had led him to the Castellan's Mansion. In addition, Lu Xuan and Xia Chenxi had a good relationship, so Xia Tao naturally had a good impression of them. However, he did not expect that this time, Lu Xuan would come back with the Vice Suzerain. Could it be that the talent the Vice Suzerain mentioned was Lu Xuan?
"Uncle!"
"Uncle Xia!"
Xia Ye and Lin Xinyi came out as well and greeted Xia Tao. The two of them had not been back for a year, and they were just as excited as Xia Tao.
"Xia Ye? Xinyi? Why did you all come back? " Xia Tao was a little confused. Although Xia Ye and Lin Xinyi were talented, in his heart, he obviously could not associate them with the Vice Suzerain of the Wind Sword School.
"Hehe, we got a free ride back thanks to Lu Xuan," Xia Ye said with a chuckle.
Lu Xuan smiled and walked forward, saying, "Uncle Xia, let me introduce the elders to you. This is Elder Jin, the Vice Suzerain of the Wind Sword School. This is the chief instructor of the core disciples of the Wind Sword School, Instructor Yang. These three are the elders of the Sword Faction of the Wind Sword School, Elder Cheng, Elder Lin, and Elder Xu. Of course, there is also Ninth Uncle."
As Lu Xuan introduced the people one by one, Xia Tao was even more shocked!
My God!
The Vice Suzerain, the chief instructor, and the three Elders of the Sword Faction were all here. What an honor it was! Even the Emperor of the Tianwu Empire could not invite so many people to come here. Usually, if the Wind Sword School had something to do, they would at most send an Elder, and most of the time, only some Deacons would come out.
Moreover, according to Xia Ye, it seemed that all these powerful people came back with Lu Xuan? What was Lu Xuan's status in the Wind Sword School now?
In Xia Tao's impression, Lu Xuan was still the young man who won the first place in the entrance examination of the Lin City. It was only a year, but he had changed so much!
Although his mind was racing, Xia Tao did not forget his etiquette and said, "This subordinate greets all the elders. May I invite all the elders to rest in the mansion?"
Facing Xia Tao's invitation, Elder Jin and the others naturally did not reject. Under Xia Tao's lead, they walked straight to the mansion. Xia Tao also hurriedly ordered his subordinates to prepare a banquet. Although the Elders did not seem to have any malicious intentions, with so many powerful people here, he had to treat them carefully.
After sitting down, Instructor Yang was the first to speak with a smile, "Xia Tao, this time, there is an amazing genius in your Lin City. This time, Lu Xuan represented our Wind Sword School and defeated the disciples of the Sky Knife Sect. He is worthy of the title of the first core disciple of the Wind Sword School!"
Although Lu Xuan was only the first in the Inner Sect, in Instructor Yang's opinion, even the strongest core disciple might not be able to defeat Wei Suo. Since Lu Xuan could defeat Wei Suo, he was indeed worthy of the title of the first core disciple. In front of Xia Tao, he naturally deliberately raised Lu Xuan's status. There was a huge gap between the first in the Inner Sect and the first in the Core Sect.
Hearing this, Xia Tao was immediately overjoyed. Although Lu Xuan was not related to him, he was still a citizen of Lin City and had a good relationship with Chenxi. Now, it seemed that Xia Ye and Lin Xinyi also had a good relationship with Lu Xuan. Since Lu Xuan had achieved such great glory, he, the governor of Lin City, was also proud. At this moment, he was completely relieved.
"I didn't expect Nephew Lu to achieve such a good result. This is really worthy of celebration. When Nephew Lu participated in the entrance examination of the Sect, I already felt that Nephew Lu would have extraordinary achievements in the future. I didn't expect that in just a short period of one year, you actually showed such extraordinary achievements." Xia Tao said with a smile.
Towards Xia Tao, Lu Xuan was indeed grateful. When he annihilated the entire Ryūka Clan, it was Xia Tao who helped to suppress the matter. Later on, he even helped to settle down Lu Xuan's father and sister. Although Xia Tao might have done these things for the sake of Xia Chenxi, no matter what, Lu Xuan still remembered this friendship.
"Uncle Xia, you flatter me." Lu Xuan said humbly, then turned to Instructor Yang and asked, "By the way, Instructor Yang, do you have any impression of Xia Chenxi, one of the core disciples? She also entered the Sect last year. At that time, it was you who personally guided her. Uncle Xia, you are Xia Chenxi's father."
Hearing Lu Xuan mention Xia Chenxi, Xia Tao's ears pricked up. Xia Chenxi was his only daughter, and it was evident how much he doted on her. He just saw Lu Xuan, Xia Ye, and Lin Xinyi, but he didn't see Xia Chenxi. Xia Tao was obviously anxious, but it was not appropriate for him to ask. At this moment, when he heard that Lu Xuan took the initiative to ask for him, he immediately cast a grateful look at him.
"Xia Chenxi? It turns out that Xia Chenxi's father is you. Haha, it seems that this Lin City is really a place where talents come from! " Instructor Yang was a little stunned at first, then he laughed out loud. If it wasn't for Lu Xuan mentioning it, he wouldn't have known that Xia Tao was Xia Chenxi's father.
"Xia Chenxi's talent is quite good. Although she is not as good as Lu Xuan, she is also outstanding among the core disciples. She has only entered the Sect for less than a year, but she has already caught up with many disciples who have been in the Sect for a few years. If I had known that she was your daughter, I would have brought her back this time." Instructor Yang nodded slightly.
"It's okay, I hope Instructor Yang can take care of my daughter. I will be very grateful." Xia Tao said again and again. Although he also wanted to see Xia Chenxi, as long as Xia Chenxi was safe, his heart was also half relieved.
After everyone talked for a while, Lu Xuan said that he wanted to go home to have a look. A group of elders naturally got up. Since this time they were accompanying Lu Xuan to go home, naturally Lu Xuan was the leader. They came to the City Lord's Mansion just to greet Xia Tao, so as not to cause any misunderstanding.
Xia Tao naturally had to accompany them. They got up together, and at the same time, he secretly rejoiced in his heart. Fortunately, he was very attentive to Xia Chenxi's request. In the past year, he had taken care of the Lu Family. Otherwise, it would be really hard to explain now.
Since the Lu Family moved to Lin City, with the relationship between Xia Chenxi and Lin Xinyi, they immediately received the double care of the City Lord's Mansion and the Lin family. With the care of the two most powerful families in Lin City, the Xia family and the Lin family, the Lu Family naturally quickly gained a foothold. Lu Yu also conscientiously ran the business that the Lin family handed over to the Lu Family. Now the Lu Family had a place in Lin City.
Not only did they buy a huge house in the prosperous area of Lin City, but there were also countless servants in the house. The only drawback was that it was a little quiet. After all, there were only Lu Yu and Lu Qiong.
Although Lu Xuan didn't know where the new home of the Lu Family was, Xia Tao knew. Immediately, he personally led the way and led the way. As the City Lord, personally leading the way was an honor that no one in Lin City could enjoy.
"Go and inform your master that Xia Tao is here to visit." Xia Tao personally walked to the Lu Family Mansion, knocked on the door, and said to a servant.
"Xia Tao?" The servant was a little confused. He felt that the person in front of him was a little familiar, and the name was very familiar, but he couldn't remember at the moment.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind, and he suddenly remembered the identity of the person. He was so scared that he hurriedly saluted and said, "Your humble servant greets the City Lord. Please forgive me."
Xia Tao was immediately speechless. Although he usually took care of the Lu Family, he rarely visited them in person. Even if he did, it would be his subordinates who knocked on the door and reported the City Lord's name. He didn't expect that this time, when he personally knocked on the door, he wouldn't be recognized immediately. After all, no one would think that the City Lord would take the role of knocking on the door.
