The first time was always the most troublesome.
Moreover, the situation in Great Flame Continent was the most chaotic.
With the first experience, things were much better after that. Under the intimidation of Lin Feng's "tyrant" image, everything went smoothly. After all, excluding those who wanted to provoke him, most people were just following the trend. In Shun's words, they were "crazy," but not stupid.
Those who were not afraid of death were very few.
If they were really not afraid of death, why would the War of the Liches and Demons have anything to do with them?
The human heart was made of flesh. Moreover, bad news spread far and wide. Lin Feng killed the innocent. He was cold-blooded and merciless. News of his massacre in every continent quickly spread. Because the other kings of the Nine Provinces also followed suit. Under Lin Feng's wise leadership, every province and prefecture was cruelly suppressed.
It could be said that Lin Feng's reputation had been officially established.
Demon, tyrant, lunatic …
There were too many.
Just mentioning Lin Feng's name was enough to make children cry.
…
However, Lin Feng did not care at all.
Without the image of a tyrant and intimidation, how could he appease them?
He knew very well that it was better to be forcefully dealt with than to be submissively dealt with.
"Phew …" Lin Feng let out a long breath. He felt tired.
"It's finally over." King Lu smiled. It had not been easy for him to follow Lin Feng all the way.
"Thank you for your hard work," Lin Feng looked at King Lu and said softly.
King Lu had helped him a lot along the way.
"It's nothing." King Lu smiled. "It's my honor to be able to help."
"My mission is about to end here." Lin Feng stood up and stretched his body. He looked into the distance with sparkling eyes. "I'll leave the rest to the kings of the Nine Provinces. Their mission is really heavy. The new policy cannot be implemented perfectly in a day or two."
"Yes, especially the prohibition on killing." King Lu's eyes burned.
Many places actually encouraged killing, and used it to temper the strong.
After all, there were countless prefectures around the southern region in the past. Many strong people would migrate there. There were too many people.
But now, times had changed.
"We can't just let the population continue to dwindle." Lin Feng smiled faintly. "Although a single teleportation array can only be used once every sixty seconds, there are a hundred in each county. There will be a total of eight thousand one way teleportation arrays in the entire southern region. Ten thousand people will be lost every minute."
If one side lost something, the other would make up for it.
The lifespan of a martial artist was very long, and the birth rate was higher than the death rate. Lin Feng's eyes lit up.
This was the only way the Southern Region could greatly increase its population and strength in a short period of time.
As the ruler of the Southern Region, he had the responsibility to develop the Southern Region.
"I understand." King Lu nodded and said, "Although it's forbidden, there are still many of them in private."
"Indeed, there's no need to be so ruthless." Lin Feng smiled.
Where there was light, there would naturally be darkness. This was something that couldn't be ignored.
The two looked at each other and smiled. King Lu looked at Lin Feng with bright eyes and smiled. "To be honest, you're more suitable for this position than Shun. At least … I'm convinced by you."
"I hope it's not a compliment." Lin Feng smiled faintly.
"Of course." King Lu laughed and nodded. "I'll return to Nanlu first. I don't feel at ease leaving this matter to them."
"Alright." Lin Feng nodded. "I should go too."

Orange Moon Palace.
"There's news that Lin Feng has personally suppressed the rioting citizens." Palace Master Orange Face looked at Lam Tok Tei and frowned slightly.
"Is that so?" Lam Tok Tei's expression was calm. A glint flashed across his eyes.
It seemed that Lin Feng's actions were not beyond his expectations.
"You still have a backup plan?" Palace Master Orange Face's eyes and ears were sharp. She could see Lam Tok Tei's victorious expression at the moment.
Smiling faintly, Lam Tok Tei did not answer. He just drank his wine calmly. "The scenery here is really good." The scenery of Jade Garden was indeed beautiful. It was colorful, fragrant, and countless rare star fruits were blooming. It was the most beautiful scenery in Orange Moon Palace.
However, Palace Master Orange Face did not have time to appreciate the beautiful scenery. Hearing Lam Tok Tei's words, she could not help but feel angry. "Do you have it or not?"
Lam Tok Tei glanced sideways. The evil light made Palace Master Orange Face a little weak.
"Come here." Lam Tok Tei waved his hand.
Palace Master Orange Face bit her lips lightly and moved gracefully. Like a kitten, she sat on Lam Tok Tei's lap. She wrapped her arms around his neck and exhaled. "Can you tell me?"
Lam Tok Tei's eyes moved slightly. He said faintly, "Although he suppressed the rebellion this time, he lost the hearts of the people. On the contrary, what did we lose?" Palace Master Orange Face's eyes brightened slightly. She nodded thoughtfully. Indeed, Orange Moon Palace only added fuel to the fire behind the scenes. They did not get involved.
"Lose the hearts of the people first, then lose the hearts of the people again." Lam Tok Tei said faintly, "When he is abandoned by his friends and family, I'll see how he can continue to sit on the position of Master of the Southern Region!"
His voice was cold. Lam Tok Tei's lips curled coldly. A murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Palace Master Orange Face's eyes brightened. She nodded repeatedly. Suddenly, she frowned. "But what if he follows the clues and finds out about Orange Moon Palace?"
"This matter was done so secretly. Will he be able to find out?" Lam Tok Tei sneered. "Besides, even if he finds out, he can't do anything about it even if you deny it. Even if he really accidentally leaves some evidence behind, hmph, he can just find a scapegoat at most."
Palace Master Orange Face's beautiful eyes flashed. "Then what should I do next?"
"You don't have to do anything." Lam Tok Tei smiled sinisterly. "Leave the rest to me. I guarantee that I'll make him, the Master of the Southern Region, lose all his heart!" Lam Tok Tei moved the five fingers of his right hand. His eyes shone brightly. Palace Master Orange Face admired his devilish aura. She hugged Lam Tok Tei tightly like an octopus and gave him her tender red lips.
"You slut." Lam Tok Tei laughed loudly. "Didn't I satisfy you yesterday?"
"What do you think?" Palace Master Orange Face winked charmingly.
For a moment, the garden was filled with the light of spring.
…
Lin Feng did not return to Peach Blossom.
After all, such a big thing had happened. He was worried about the situation of his family and his foster father. His father-in-law and mother-in-law were both in Shiluo County.
He turned back and did not return for some time.
Soon, he saw his foster father, Lin Zhen, and his father-in-law, Qin Ren, and felt relieved.
The disaster in Shiluo County was much better than he had imagined. First, King Yan had taken special care of it. Second, his reputation in Shiluo County was particularly resounding. After all, whether it was a tyrant or a demon, he had always grown up in Shiluo County. The other warriors in Shiluo County felt proud of him.
This sense of pride was something that other counties and continents did not have.
If one were to regard it as a form of faith, then his faith in Shiluo Commandery was very strong.
"Don't worry. Our Shiluo County is very united." Lin Zhen laughed heartily.
Lin Feng smiled calmly. The situation in Shiluo County was indeed the best.
His foster father's workload had been reduced a lot. He had a good relationship with County City Lord Wang Mo, so he was usually quite free.
"Zhan 'er has grown up a lot. It's all thanks to you." Lin Zhen looked at Lin Feng.
"When people reach a certain time, encounter certain things, or meet certain people, they will always grow up." Lin Feng smiled slightly. He remembered the first time he met his eldest brother, Lin Zhan. At that time, he had a sloppy appearance. He was interested in martial arts but had no interest in the affairs of the family.
Until he met her.
She was once a top assassin of the White Shirt Association, Wu Yin.
"Speaking of which, I really have to thank my daughter-in-law." Lin Zhen narrowed his eyes, feeling gratified. "It's all thanks to her that I managed to restrain my son who was like a wild horse. Wu Yin is very meticulous and resolute. It can be said that all the family affairs, big or small, are now handled by her."
"Are you worried?" Lin Feng smiled.
"What's there to worry about?" Lin Zhen shrugged. "If you suspect someone, don't use them. If you use them, don't suspect them."
Lin Feng looked at Lin Zhen. He seemed to have seen something from his foster father's expression. However … he didn't need to intervene.
There were many things that didn't need to be said. It wasn't necessarily a bad thing to hide a little secret from each other.
"By the way, Wu Yin seemed to have something to ask you a few days ago." Lin Zhen suddenly clapped his hands. He remembered. Lin Feng smiled bitterly. He thought that his foster father's memory was really good. He only remembered when he was about to leave. He nodded. "Okay, I'll go look for her."
"At this time, she should be calculating the accounts in the family," Lin Zhen said softly.
"Okay." Lin Feng nodded.
…
The Lin clan.
It was getting bigger and more majestic.
They weren't the strongest in the Qianluo District before, but now their influence spanned the entire Shiluo County. Everyone knew about them. The entire Qianluo District had almost become a dictatorship of the Lin clan. More than a third of the land had been built, and the outer city had expanded greatly.
Today, the Lin Clan had the strength, manpower, and financial resources.
Of course, the biggest reason was the huge building erected in the inner city of the Lin clan. It towered into the clouds and cost a lot of money to build —
Lin Feng's statue.
Every day, people came to pay their respects.
The current Lin Feng was not only the pride of the Lin clan, but also the pride of the entire Shiluo County!
He was the true Lord of the Southern Region.
…
At this moment, no one knew that the Lord of the Southern Region had slipped into the clan without anyone noticing.
Indeed, Lin Feng didn't want to cause too much of a stir. Speaking of which, this was actually one of the troubles of becoming famous.
"Sister-in-law." Lin Feng knocked on the door and smiled.
"You're here." Wu Yin looked up and put down the account book in her hand. She smiled.
"Mm, I heard from my adoptive father that you were looking for me." Lin Feng nodded and looked at the beautiful woman in front of him. Wu Yin no longer had her previous sharpness. Her hair was coiled up, and she was already a married woman. She welcomed people with a smile and didn't look like a killer at all. She was truly living the life she wanted, a wife and a child.
"Yes." Wu Yin smiled. "Uncle, your time is precious. I won't waste any more of it."
As she spoke, a light flashed in her hand. Wu Yin took out a stack of papers and handed them over. "About half a month ago, many people with ulterior motives came to scheme and spread rumors to sow discord. Fortunately, you are very popular in Shiluo County, and their scheme didn't succeed. I took note of this matter and sent people to investigate. "
Wu Yin looked at Lin Feng and smiled. "Now that the Southern Region is in chaos, I believe this information will be of great use to you."
Lin Feng's eyes burned as he took the documents.
He had searched high and low for it, only to find it by chance.
He had been thinking about how to find the people with ulterior motives, but he didn't expect to find it so easily.
Wu Yin was indeed a top-notch killer. She was extremely vigilant.
"Thank you, Sister-in-law." Lin Feng smiled and waved the documents. "It's very useful."
