He Qian didn't panic.
He wasn't worried that no one would come to Jade Dragon City to support him either. Only, with Lin Jin around, forget the large countries that received invitations, even those that didn't would most likely show up.
He Qian had even discussed this matter with the ministers in the royal court. They were all core officials of Jade Dragon Kingdom and each of them was highly intelligent. Their knowledge of strategy and strategy was incomparable to that of the average person.
In the end, they unanimously agreed that Lin Jin's status in Middle Earth had reached a terrifying height.
If his previous reputation was just an empty one, then the fact that he single-handedly defeated the allied army of the five countries of Grassy Continent, to the point where they didn't even dare to retaliate, was a terrifying feat.
Contemporary immortals weren't just empty words. Just this fact alone was enough for the Jade Dragon Kingdom to send out an invitation card and no one would reject it.
And just as expected, more premium countries arrived one after another. The entire Jade Dragon City was bustling with noise and excitement.
Interestingly, if it were any other country, they would definitely be nervous to have so many foreign dignitaries and armies in the city. They might even be worried that something might go wrong.
After all, no one was to be trifled with. But in Jade Dragon City, there were no such concerns. No matter how arrogant a person was, be it the king or the dignitaries, they were all as obedient as good citizens in Jade Dragon City.
Because no one dared to cause trouble here.
Especially since they now knew that Lin Jin was in the city.
The story of him reviving a ferocious beast from the dead had already spread to everyone's ears after hundreds of versions. With this, Lin Jin's reputation grew even more famous.
Of course, there were no absolutes in this world. Although most people respected and feared Lin Jin, there were a few who didn't believe it.
A travel-worn group was currently resting in an inn in the Jade Dragon Kingdom.
Judging by their attire and accessories, it was obvious that they weren't ordinary people. Each of them was well-built and had a ferocious aura that only came from Middle Earth.
Even the horses they were riding weren't your average horses. At least, they had never been seen in Middle Continent before. Of course, the innkeeper of this inn had never seen them before.
Out of curiosity, he couldn't help but steal a few glances at them. However, the innkeeper didn't have a good temper. He immediately cursed and was about to hit him.
In the end, the young shopkeeper was not careless and was not afraid at all.
"Since you're guests, you should abide by the rules of our Jade Dragon Kingdom. Didn't you see the sign at the city gates saying 'no trouble' when you entered? Are you trying to break the rules?" The shopkeeper was quite polite at first, but these people's curses were a little unpleasant, so his temper flared up.
Even if they were guests from afar, the people of Jade Dragon City were confident in their own rights. Hence, they wouldn't tolerate their insults.
Again, they felt that they had a backer.
Their backer was Appraiser Lin.
Everyone knew about this. During this period of time, they had seen quite a number of foreigners. Even if they were officials or nobles, they were polite to the Jade Dragon citizens. They did not dare to order them around, much less scold them.
Hence, they felt a sense of pride and satisfaction. Simply put, the Jade Dragon Kingdom was hospitable and polite, but they would never indulge the other party or allow them to throw a tantrum.
Hearing the shopkeeper's words, the person opposite immediately flew into a rage out of humiliation.
"How dare a mere innkeeper speak to His Highness like that? How insolent!" As he spoke, a ball of fire surged out from behind him. A flaming serpent appeared and pounced at the shopkeeper.
This flaming serpent wasn't to be underestimated. It was at least Rank 3 and had a fire attribute. Wherever it passed, it would burn. If the shopkeeper were to get entangled by this flaming serpent, he would immediately be incinerated and his life would be in danger.
This person's attack was clearly too ruthless, wanting to take someone's life. Seeing this scene, even his companions were shocked.
"You can't do this!"
Someone tried to stop the shopkeeper but it was too late.
Boom!
The flaming serpent had another ability and that was detonation. In an instant, the inn was engulfed in flames. With a loud explosion, many of the buildings were caught up in it.
Smoke and dust billowed as the group of people hurriedly retreated outside. All of them looked grim.
"This is bad." The leader of the group looked grim as he spoke. A tall man next to him immediately said, "Your Highness, I don't think there's any need to worry. This lowly commoner was the one who was rude first. We're in the right no matter where we go. Moreover, even if we're in the wrong, what's wrong with killing a few ignorant commoners? Unless the Jade Dragon Emperor dares to use force against us? "
The tall man looked nonchalant. Then, he turned to the person who attacked earlier and said, "Little brother, you did a good job. Ever since we arrived in Jade Dragon City, I've been suppressing my anger. No matter what, we're all members of the royal family of a premium country. Moreover, Your Highness is of noble status and could very well inherit the throne. Yet, this Jade Dragon Kingdom didn't even welcome us outside the city. Nobody even bothered to greet us after we entered the city.
This is outrageous. "His words naturally garnered the agreement of many of his companions as they echoed endlessly.
Meanwhile, the prince clearly agreed with his guard leader's words.
Indeed, he was also suppressing his anger.
Everything else aside, he was a dignified prince of a premium country. His status was higher than that of an intermediate country's emperor. Yet, he had to stay in such a lowly inn.
It was obvious that the prince was looking down on him.
He had been suppressing his anger for two reasons. One, he didn't want to cause trouble, and two, it was because of Lin Jin.
However, his subordinates were all hot-tempered and on the verge of exploding. As a prince, he couldn't possibly reprimand them.
No matter what, he had already done it, so he had to carry it on. This was related to his dignity, and it was also related to the dignity of the country he belonged to.
"Although you've gone overboard in this matter, you did it for me. Killing two commoners is fine and I'll bear the consequences for you. But you mustn't let your emotions affect your decisions in the future. After all, this is Jade Dragon Kingdom and that Lin Jin is here too. He's not to be trifled with," the prince warned.
The group quickly saluted.
"Your Highness, speaking of which, is that Lin Jin really a living god like the rumors say? I thought it was an exaggeration. In fact, how could there be any immortals in this world? That's utter nonsense. Moreover, the fact that he single-handedly defeated the allied army of the Grassy Continent's five countries is an exaggeration. In my opinion, this Jade Dragon Kingdom has the support of the Spiral Nation and the one who defeated the Grassy Continent's five countries is most likely the Spiral Nation as well. As for Lin Jin, he should be a capable beast appraiser but he's definitely not as god-like as the rumors say. Even without his beast appraising skills, his strength might not be on par with mine. "
The tall man suddenly said, his tone filled with suspicion and disdain.
