"However, you must be cautious in using it, this kind of magical artifact that kills to increase one's strength possesses temptations far beyond ordinary ones, and the power gained in this way is not righteous," the True Martial Saint Lord added after a moment of thought.

"Thank you for your teachings, Saint Lord," Lin Yun nodded continuously as he took over the Bloodthirsty Sword and spoke.

Sure enough, the True Martial Saint Lord was of admirable character; he had realized the immense power of the Bloodthirsty Sword, yet he handed it back to him without hesitation.

Lin Yun thought to himself.

At that moment, the Holy Mother first looked towards the True Martial Saint Lord with a bit of surprise, clearly, he had whispered something to her that had shocked her.

Then, turning her head towards Lin Yun, she said, "Lin Yun, the True Martial Saint Lord has told me about the events that occurred on your journey here, and we both agree that you are capable of managing the Immortal Origin Holy Land. What do you think about this?"

No wonder she was surprised; after knowing about Lin Yun's performance upon leaving the Heavenly Principle Tower, she had recommended him to the True Martial Saint Lord as the manager of the Immortal Origin Holy Land, but the True Martial Saint Lord had not agreed until now.

And now, the True Martial Saint Lord's intention for Lin Yun to manage the Immortal Origin Holy Land was even stronger than hers.

"This..." Lin Yun looked troubled.

It was that problem again, but he really did not want to have any conflicts with the many strong beings from the Immortal Origin Holy Land, especially that High-Grade Saint Lord!

"What? Lin Yun to manage the Immortal Origin Holy Land?"

"This!!"

Because the Holy Mother had spoken these words directly, Xia Qingqing and her companions also heard them and expressed their astonishment before looking at Lin Yun in shock.

They had already witnessed the power of the Immortal Origin Holy Land — not only was there a heaven-defying being like the True Martial Saint Lord but also such a heaven-defying environment. Such a foundation was what many people dreamt of.

The True Martial Saint Lord and the Holy Mother were actually considering giving such an existence to Lin Yun, how could they not be shocked?

"True Martial, you and the Holy Mother just want to hand over the Immortal Origin Holy Land to an outsider? That's not quite appropriate, is it?" Just then, a faint voice sounded from around them.

Whoosh!

In the next moment, a middle-aged man in green robes appeared before everyone.

"Langya, have you left your retreat?" the True Martial Saint Lord turned and calmly spoke to the man in green robes, as though he had long sensed his arrival.

"This person..."

Seeing the middle-aged man in green robes, Lin Yun's pupils slightly constricted.

Because he sensed from the man an extremely transcendent, sacred aura, much like the ones possessed by the Saint Lords he had encountered before, but much stronger.

It was similar to the aura of the True Martial Saint Lord, albeit much weaker than his.

Lin Yun had a hunch that this man might be the Higher-Grade Saint Lord of the Immortal Origin Holy Land the True Martial Saint Lord had mentioned earlier.

"Lin Yun is not an outsider; he emerged from the old site of the Immortal Origin Holy Land, so in principle, he is also one of us from the Immortal Origin Holy Land," the True Martial Saint Lord then said.

"The old site of the Immortal Origin Holy Land and the new Immortal Origin Holy Land differ as much as heaven and earth, and the two have been cut off from each other for thousands of years. How can he be considered one of the Immortal Origin Holy Land's own?" the middle-aged man in green robes, referred to by the True Martial Saint Lord as Langya, slowly shook his head and said.

As he spoke, he did not glance at Lin Yun, seeming to pay no heed to him.

"How can you speak like that? We too came from the old site of the Immortal Origin Holy Land; it's only been a few thousand years. This may be a long time for the development of the Immortal Origin Holy Land, but for beings at our level, it's almost instantaneous. Moreover, over the years, the new Immortal Origin Holy Land has not completely cut off relations with the old site.

From the initial overseers of the lower realms to every so often when people are sent down to recruit disciples with good talents, who rise up and some even become quite accomplished..." the True Martial Saint Lord said in a deep voice.

"Speaking of the people from the lower realms, I recall that this Lin Yun seems to have killed many of our people down there, right? Although those from the lower realms do not hold high status in the Immortal Origin Holy Land, they nevertheless carried out orders from the higher-ups.

Lin Yun's indiscriminate killing of the people from the lower realms shows a disregard for the dignity of the Immortal Origin Holy Land, a lawless attitude, not putting the Immortal Origin Holy Land in his eyes at all.

Now, you want to hand over the Immortal Origin Holy Land to such a person, what a joke!" Langya interjected with a cold laugh before the True Martial Saint Lord could finish speaking.

"At that time, the circumstances were special, as they say, 'Ignorance is no fault'..." the True Martial Saint Lord frowned and said.

"Hmph! If you want to hand over the Immortal Origin Holy Land to him, then go ahead. But as for me, I do not approve!" Langya interrupted the True Martial Saint Lord again with a cold snort, then turned and spoke.

Whoosh!

Before his words had faded, he had already vanished from that space.

Watching the direction in which Langya had left, the True Martial Saint Lord's brows were deeply knit in concern.

"Saint Lord, Holy Mother, I think it's better to let the matter of the Immortal Origin Holy Land go," Lin Yun said hastily upon seeing this.

As the saying goes, a twisted melon is not sweet. He really did not want to force the issue with the Immortal Origin Holy Land.

Or perhaps, he did not have such great ambition. Initially, he established Qingyun Company and expanded it only to improve his own circumstances, the lives of those close to him, and eventually those on Earth. The people from the Immortal Origin Holy Land already had their own lives. As he briefly observed on his way here, it seemed that they were all living quite well.
