Ye Wudao's appearance instantly silenced the originally noisy scene. His gaze swept across the entire room, finally landing on Lin Han. A hint of surprise and solemnity flashed in his eyes.

"Who are you? How dare you be so presumptuous in Yuanyang City?" Ye Wudao's voice was deep and powerful, carrying an unquestionable authority. His words contained both questioning and a hint of probing, clearly filled with curiosity about Lin Han's identity and purpose.

"Kneel down!" Lin Han uttered these two words lightly, and then an invisible pressure instantly enveloped Ye Wudao.

Ye Wudao felt an unprecedented heaviness, like a mountain, bearing down on him. His legs gave way, and he involuntarily fell to his knees. This scene shocked everyone present. The Wu family cultivators and the City Lord's Mansion guards exchanged looks of disbelief. Their City Lord, the supreme ruler of Yuanyang City, had been brought to his knees in public by a single sentence from a young man.

"You... who are you?" Ye Wudao's voice trembled. He tried hard to struggle to get up, but found that the power seemed to come from the sky and he could not resist it at all.

"Lin Feiyu..." Lin Han crossed his arms and said indifferently.

"Lin Feiyu...?" Ye Wudao fell into deep thought upon hearing this. The name seemed to have touched a corner of his memory. He suddenly looked up, a flash of shock and disbelief in his eyes. "You...you are the newly appointed Inspector Lin of the Divine Mysterious Palace!"

Shenxuan Palace, as the most mysterious force in the world of immortal cultivation, has influence throughout the Nine Provinces, and the Inspector is a person of high status and extraordinary strength in the Shenxuan Palace.

Lin Feiyu, this name has risen like a comet in recent times, not only because of his extraordinary cultivation, but also because he acts decisively and fearlessly, and has repeatedly exposed and punished many cases of darkness and injustice in the world of cultivation, winning the admiration and fear of countless cultivators.

"What! This brat is actually the famous Inspector Lin! This... How is this possible!" Upon hearing this, Wu Liang, Wu Yuan and the others' faces turned pale as paper. They could never have imagined that this extremely arrogant brat was actually the Inspector of the Shenxuan Palace who shocked the entire world of immortal cultivation.

The Shenxuan Palace is an existence that these mortal cultivators can only look up to, and Lin Feiyu, as the inspector of the Palace, has already exceeded their imagination in terms of strength and status.

"Inspector Lin, I was wrong! I was wrong! It was my fault that I didn't recognize the great man and offended you. Please be magnanimous and spare my life!" Wu Liang fell to his knees and kowtowed repeatedly, his face full of fear and regret.

Seeing this, his second uncle Wu Yuan and other Wu family cultivators beside him followed suit. For a moment, the scene became funny and ironic.

"Shut up! It's not your turn yet! If you keep making noise, I'll make you shut up forever!"

Lin Han's harsh words were like an ice blade in the cold winter, instantly making everyone in the Wu family present silent, not even daring to breathe.

They knew very well that the Inspector Lin in front of them was not someone they could easily provoke, and that a single word from him could decide their life or death.

Ye Wudao knelt on the ground, his face gloomy and his heart filled with mixed emotions.

As the city lord, he had the final say in Yuanyang City. How could he have suffered such humiliation? But now, facing the inspector from the Shenxuan Palace, he had to suppress his anger and resentment, and instead put on an extremely submissive expression.

"Sir Inspector Lin, I was blind and failed to recognize your true appearance in time. I am sorry for any offense. I hope you will forgive me."

"Don't give me that! City Lord Ye, you'd better explain to me why you arrested the Dongfang family for no reason? Did they commit some heinous crime? Or did they dig up your ancestral graves?"

[From Ye Wudao's resentment value +]

"You..." Ye Wudao almost couldn't help but blurt out when he heard about digging up the ancestral grave, but reason eventually overcame impulse. He took a deep breath and said seriously: "Sir, my arrest of the Dongfang family members is reasonable and legal. Why did I arrest them? Of course, someone revealed to me that the Dongfang family and the demon race have close contacts in private!"

"Demon clan? Haha... City Lord Ye! Do you think I'm an idiot and so easy to fool?" Lin Han's expression darkened, and then he released an invisible pressure towards Ye Wudao!

“Puff!”

Ye Wudao only felt a tightness in his chest, as if a thousand-pound rock was pressing down on him. A mouthful of blood spurted out uncontrollably, and his face instantly turned as pale as paper.

"I'll give you one more chance. If you don't tell the truth, I won't mind sending you to the afterlife!"

Lin Han's tone was cold, and every word he said was like a heavy hammer, hitting Ye Wudao's heart.

He was trembling, with cold sweat on his forehead, and finally realized that the Inspector Lin in front of him was not only unfathomable in strength, but also a man of his word and decisive in his actions.

"Please calm down, my lord. I... I'm telling the truth." Ye Wudao spoke with difficulty, a hint of imperceptible despair in his voice. "Actually, the Dongfang family's 'Heavenly Evolution Jade Plate' has attracted the covetousness of many parties, including our City Lord's Mansion. However, due to the Dongfang family's generations of protection, it is difficult to seize it by force. So they devised this plan, hoping to use the name of the demon clan to force their family into a desperate situation, so that we have a chance to seize the jade plate..."

"Haha, you are really calculating. For your own selfish desires, you don't hesitate to frame innocent people and push the entire family into the abyss."

Lin Han sneered, his eyes flashing with coldness, and he felt disgusted with Ye Wudao's despicable means.

"Sir Inspector Lin, I was wrong, I was wrong. Please spare my life. I am willing to release all the members of the Dongfang family and compensate them for all their losses to make up for my mistake."

Ye Wudao had completely lost his former dignity at this moment. He knelt on the ground, humbly begging for Lin Han's forgiveness.

"Spare your life? It depends on how you perform next! I'll give you one hour! First, go and bring here all those family leaders who covet the Dongfang family's treasures. Second, go to your prison and bring back all the people from the Dongfang family you captured in an eight-man sedan chair to the Dongfang family mansion! If you haven't completed these two tasks by the end of the hour, then you should be aware of the consequences!" Lin Han said coldly, while lightly raising his finger and pointing to the air.

"boom!"

A subtle but shocking wave of spiritual power overflowed from Lin Han's fingertips, and the air seemed to be torn open by an invisible hand, and then quickly healed, leaving an indelible shock in everyone's heart.

This is not only a display of strength, but also a silent warning to Ye Wudao!
