Three days later, the new holy land of common people.

The senior executives who were discussing matters around the table suddenly stopped and turned to look at the door.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."

Lin Chuan stood at the door with a faint smile on his lips, and raised his hand to clasp his fists to signal to everyone at the table.

However, the first thing that responded to him was a stream of green light.

A palm-sized green tower suddenly emerged from the hall and flew straight towards him, followed by four streams of light of different colors.

There was no trace of emotion in Lin Chuan's eyes. The next second, two chains, one black and one white, suddenly appeared behind him. They shot out as swiftly as spirit snakes and precisely wrapped around the five attacking immortal weapons. A faint halo appeared on the chains, and in just a moment, they were firmly bound, making it impossible for them to move at all.

“Hey, if Fellow Daoist Mao and Fellow Daoist Qing also took action, that kid wouldn’t have it so easy.”

Yan Jin looked at the immortal weapon bound by black and white chains and curled his lips helplessly.

"Your status is noble. If I dare to disrespect you, I will have a hard time explaining to the Demon King later."

Catwoman let a soft smile play on her lips and shook her head slightly.

Qing Shu didn't say anything, but her eyes were fixed on the man at the door. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, and there was an unconcealable tenderness between her eyebrows.

"You are old, so what's there to be dissatisfied about? Don't forget, that kid is also a sword cultivator, and he has a forbidden magic weapon in his hand." Li Jun raised his hand and patted Yan Jin's shoulder.

"Go to hell with you! I haven't come to an agreement with you yet about your apprentice cheating my apprentice of his spirit stones and going to a brothel." Yan Jin slapped Li Jun's hand away, saying indignantly.

"You talk as if your apprentice didn't go to the brothel. Your apprentice didn't keep his original intention, but you blame my apprentice instead?" Li Jun raised his eyebrows and retorted.

"you……"

The words were on the tip of Yan Jin's tongue, but before he could continue, he saw Lin Chuan at the door had put away the black and white chains, and was walking slowly towards him with the five magic weapons in his hands.

"Welcome to the Holy Lord!"

All the senior officials in the hall stood up and saluted Lin Chuan who was walking slowly towards them.

"Seniors, there's no need for formalities. The affairs of the Holy Land are complex, and many matters require the concerted efforts of all the seniors to proceed smoothly."

Lin Chuan smiled gently, raised his hand and waved it lightly, and the magic weapon in his hand instantly turned into streams of light and returned to the hands of the senior leaders.

"Since Qin Lang is here, let's continue discussing the previous issues and strive to finalize the rules as soon as possible."

Qing Shu restrained the tenderness between her brows and looked up at everyone.

……

No matter how big or small the matter is, the core of the discussion cannot be avoided without the word "private".

Although it was thanks to Lin Chuan that the various ethnic forces were able to merge into the unified force of the Holy Land of Common People, the leaders of each ethnic force still had some selfish thoughts towards the forces or races they once led.

In this meeting, everyone repeatedly weighed and compromised between their own selfishness and the overall interests, while gradually compromising under Lin Chuan's unquestionable tough attitude.

After several rounds of tug-of-war, all matters were finally finalized and all differences were resolved.

……

The north wind was cold, blowing the white snow down from the sky, and the sky and the earth were covered with white.

Qing Shu looked at Lin Chuan, who had been busy setting up the formation in the Holy Land since finalizing the matters between the various factions. She lightly moved to his side and spoke softly, "Qin Lang, why don't you give me the arrangement method of the Myriad Souls Locking Formation? I will send someone to implement it. You just successfully passed the tribulation, so you can focus on your cultivation and spend more time with your sisters. Why bother with so much trouble?"

“It’s always more reassuring to do it yourself.”

Lin Chuan's fingertips were focused on the spiritual light of the formation pattern, and his gaze was still fixed on the center of the formation in front of him that was waiting to be set up.

"I thought Ah Chuan would be able to stay with us for a while after his retreat, but it turned out to be like being a widow."

A voice filled with resentment echoed from the snow. The spiritual light of the array pattern on Lin Chuan's fingertips paused slightly. He turned his head and saw Jiang Wanying carrying an exquisite food box, walking slowly towards him on the snow, a hint of anger still lingering in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.

"Once these things are settled, I will definitely take some time to accompany you."

Lin Chuan's eyes moved gently between Qing Shu and Jiang Wanying, with a hint of obvious guilt in his tone.

"Just kidding, no one blames Achuan."

Jiang Wanying shook her head slightly, walked quickly to Lin Chuan, and opened the food box layer by layer.

Inside were a few plates of steaming side dishes and a bowl of soup. Warm mist rose from the cracks in the box, spreading a sense of warmth in the cold snowy day.

"Today is New Year's Eve in the mortal world, a day for families to reunite."

Jiang Wanying gently smoothed her wind-twisted hair with her fingertips. Her eyes fell on the food in the lunch box, and her tone softened. "This is the food we all made for Ah Chuan. We originally wanted to eat together for a more lively occasion, but Ah Chuan couldn't leave until the formation center was set up, so they asked me to deliver it."

"Why don't you just let your sisters come here?"

Qingshu raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Jiang Wanying with some doubt.

"If they come over, they will definitely not be able to hide their thoughts. Not only will it spoil the fun, but Ah Chuan will have a lot of things to do."

Jiang Wanying shook her head slightly and looked up at the mountain not far away.

There, a figure was faintly swaying on the mountain top, and pairs of eyes were all falling here.

"Why are you so pessimistic?"

Lin Chuan took a sip from the soup bowl, feeling the warmth flow down his throat. He said with a hint of frustration, "I'm still in the Holy Land, and you all think you're going to be widows?"

Jiang Wanying didn't dwell on this topic anymore. She changed the subject, her tone adding a hint of mischief: "Ah Chuan, try these dishes and guess which one I made."

"..."

Lin Chuan's lips twitched slightly, but he still picked up his chopsticks and tasted the dishes one by one with a look of enjoyment. Finally, he pointed precisely at a plate of emerald greens and said firmly, "This must be it!"

"How did Achuan know?"

Jiang Wanying stared at Lin Chuan and said meaningfully.

“Because this dish is the best.”

As Lin Chuan spoke, he picked up another piece of vegetables with chopsticks and put it into his mouth. His eyes were filled with satisfaction as he chewed.

"But I've tried it, and this dish is the worst."

Seeing Lin Chuan picking up another piece of vegetables with his chopsticks, Jiang Wanying couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.

"How is that possible? It tastes so good."

As Lin Chuan was speaking, he was about to put his chopsticks into the dish of vegetables again, but Jiang Wanying reached out and gently pressed his wrist.

"Bad Ah Chuan, I must have made the bad dishes?"

Jiang Wanying rolled her eyes at Lin Chuan in reproach, "This dish was made by Ran."

"Sister Ran..."

Lin Chuan's hand holding the chopsticks paused slightly, a trace of surprise flashed across his face, and then he smiled knowingly.

After all, Ran is an elf and usually only eats spiritual fruits. How could she cook dishes from the mortal world? It is reasonable that the taste is not good.

"Hey, I even made a bet with Baizhi, saying that Achuan would definitely not be mistaken about my cooking skills."

Jiang Wanying sighed with a sad face, "That's it! I lost the bet. For the next few days, I'll have to be her maid, being ordered around by her and doing her errands."

"If she dares to bully me, I'll help her bully her back after I finish the formation." Lin Chuan put down his chopsticks with a smile in his eyes.

"Then Achuan should just bully me."

Jiang Wanying curled her lips, packed up the food box, and then took out a pot of warm wine from the storage space and handed it over. "Everyone is waiting for dinner over there. Qingshu and I will go back first."

"it is good."

Lin Chuan took the wine jug and nodded.

He stood where he was, watching Jiang Wanying and Qingshu walk away on the snow until their figures melted into the snow curtain. Only then did he retract his gaze, pick up the formation flag again, and lean over to continue concentrating on setting up the formation pattern.

I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly in the distant night sky, a gorgeous firework exploded with a "bang". The golden and red light scattered in the inky black, illuminating half of the snowy sky.

Immediately afterwards, more fireworks rose into the sky one after another, red, pink, and silver, weaving a lively sea of ​​light in the sky.

"I don't know what Master is doing at this time..."

Lin Chuan stared at the fireworks in the sky for a moment, then he withdrew his gaze and concentrated again. With a flash of light on his fingertips, he continued to extend the formation pattern deep into the snow.

……

Yongning Town.

In Yongning Town, red lanterns are hung all over the streets and alleys. A group of children are running around with various lanterns in their hands, and their laughter, filled with the warm atmosphere of the New Year, fills the entire street.

The adults stood by the door in groups of three or four, chatting, with smiles on their faces.

No one noticed that in the shadows at the corner of the street, a man in a black robe was standing solemnly with his head bowed, his hands forming seals rapidly, with a faint light flowing through his fingertips, drawing several strange patterns on the ground that no one could understand, as if he was quietly laying an invisible net for this bustling town.

"The timid will die of starvation, and the bold will die of gluttony! I don't believe that murderous devil can still be in this shabby little town!"

The man in black robe let out a few strange laughs and was about to activate the formation to sacrifice the whole town with blood when a sharp sword light suddenly broke through the air.

With a "puff" sound, the flying sword went straight through his heart. The black-robed man's hideous smile froze instantly, and his body fell limply to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, a bronze mirror flew from the air and hovered steadily above the body of the man in black robe.

The mirror surface emitted a soft white light, and tiny rays of spiritual light escaped from the remains of the corpse and were slowly absorbed by the mirror like gossamer.

"Why die on this day when there are so many other days to die?"

On the roof not far away, the man in white with a ghost mask on his face hooked his fingertips, and the long sword and bronze mirror immediately turned into two streams of light and returned to her side.

Just when she was still feeling a little annoyed, a firework suddenly exploded not far away.

A ball of golden-red light spread out in the ink-black color, and then more colorful flames rose into the sky one after another, instantly attracting her attention. Even her impatience was diluted a little by this splendor.

She turned her ghost face towards the direction where the fireworks were rising, just staring at them blankly. No one knew what she was thinking at the moment.

Not until the last firework faded and the dark night sky fell silent again did she slowly withdraw her gaze and sigh softly.
