Chapter 241 Inspecting Li State_1
```
Jiuzhou is bustling with activity, with Li State being the most prosperous.
In its jurisdiction, thirty-six counties, all are stable and peaceful.
Located on the eastern edge is an inconspicuous little mountain, yet the ordinary town at its foot, in terms of prosperity, by no means pales in comparison to Li State City.
All who come and go possess robust and powerful auras.
There are those who sell Precious Medicines, those carrying the corpses of demons, evidently a habitat comprised of martial artists and cultivators.
Li State Instrument Sect.
In terms of strength, it may not count among the best, but its reputation for wealth is indeed illustrious across the Great Qian.
Through supplying Precious Tools to the Martial Temple and protected by the Imperial Court, hardly anyone dares to provoke it.
But at this moment.
At the peak of that small mountain, on the edge of a deliberately excavated hollow, sits a modest thatched cottage.
Outside the cottage, an old man and a middle-aged man are playing a game of chess.
"It seems the Sect Master's mind isn't on the chessboard." The middle-aged man, pale and beardless, eyes phoenix-shaped, although dressed in a light blue robe and seemingly with an aura of immortality, exudes an inexplicable hint of evil.
"Worrying is inevitable at the time of improving a Precious Tool. Master Hu is jesting," Lin Jingyi said with a forced smile.
"Oh?"
Master Hu glanced toward the smoke-filled hollow and spoke with interest, "The Precious Tool is here, yet the Sect Master's mind seems to be in the north..."
He drawled, "That appears to be the direction of the Great Qian Imperial City."
Upon hearing this, Lin Jingyi's fingertips trembled, and the chess piece in his hand clattered onto the board, spinning around.
He quickly adjusted his expression, "Master Hu jests."
Master Hu just smiled noncommittally, "Enough, I am somewhat tired today. You should also rest, Sect Master."
"Then I shall take my leave," Lin said.
Lin Jingyi got up and walked down the mountain path, his complexion growing uglier with each step.
This old fox, clearly using the name of Li State Instrument Sect.
Why do I appear to be the anxious one?
All I wanted was to invite him to re
He was once the most celebrated prodigy of the Instrument Sect, and with just one sentence, he made all the disciples on the mountain recognize him.
"Huff..."
Lin Jingyi quickly stepped forward, proving himself a worthy son of his own.
He knew right away to dissociate himself from that fox demon.
The Inspector was someone the Instrument Sect had welcomed, not someone who had come of their own volition to inspect.
It was also a way to intimidate the fox demon.
All the disciples on the mountain stopped their tasks and bowed in the direction of the crimson cloud in the sky.
"..."
Standing with his hands behind his back near the depression, Real Man Hu's lips formed a peculiar smile, tinged with a trace of mockery.
The young people nowadays, with not much skill, sure know how to strut.
They're not afraid of crushing themselves under the weight of their own pretensions.
The arrival of the other party was earlier than he had anticipated, but it wasn't really a problem.
