Chapter 1668

"Tianyan Branch Temple in Yuehua Province, all disciples, pay respects to Elder Lin!"

In front of a mountain gate, tens of thousands of white-clothed disciples stood straight and saluted respectfully to the young man with a broken arm in front of them.

This young man with a broken arm was naturally Lin Jichen. He had already rushed to Yuehua Province, so he had to go online quickly.

However, when he arrived in Yuehua Province, he did not go to Xuanyi Sect to treat his illness first, but ran to the branch temple to report first.

If he was just sent out and he was absent, the punishment of the sect would be meaningless. So even though he knew that his precious master was doing it for his own good, he had to do it secretly.

Seeing this welcome ceremony, Lin Jichen was not very satisfied with it.

The reason was that these disciples moved casually, stood loosely, and even their voices were weak. They did not have the temperament that their disciples of the Sword Sect should have. Instead, they looked like a group of scattered soldiers.

"You, didn't you eat?" Lin Jichen asked coldly, his eyes swept over all the disciples.

The disciples were all shocked and hurriedly shouted again: "Greetings to Elder Lin!"

Lin Jichen's expression eased a little.

In front of these disciples, there were three middle-aged men, one was a little fat, one was a little short, and the other had a striking scar on his face.

All three men were smiling and looked very sincere.

The fat man in the middle walked out first, smiling and saying, "I am Zhen Shaoming, the former chief elder of the branch temple. I have met Elder Lin. Elder Lin's reputation has long been known throughout the world. It is a great honor to meet him today."

Another short man also walked out at the right time and flattered him: "Elder Lin is so young but has entered the realm of enlightenment. Looking at the entire Eight Desolate Continent, I am afraid that only the head of the sect can compare with him. In the future, Elder Lin will have the final say in our Sword Sect. I am Wang Ziru, the subordinate, and I am willing to be driven by Elder Lin!"

Only the man with a scar on his face was indifferent and stood still like a wooden stake.

Lin Jichen looked at the man and said, "Who is this?"

Zhen Shaoming quickly explained, "His name is Liu Hanbin, and he is the third elder of the branch temple. He is a sword fanatic and does not understand the ways of the world. Elder Lin does not need to pay attention to him."

Lin Jichen nodded, and did not ask more questions, but stated his purpose: "The sect sent me here this time, but it has nothing to do with you. I violated the sect's rules and was sent here. I was devoted to cultivation and did not know how to manage. So the branch temple will continue to be what it was before. Elder Zhen, you are still the chief elder, and you can manage the affairs of the branch temple."

Zhen Shaoming's eyes showed a bit of ecstasy when he heard this, and he said repeatedly: "I will obey the orders of the great elder. Don't worry, the great elder, with me here, the branch temple will be fine, and I will never let the sect down."

"Well, I believe you." Lin Jichen nodded with satisfaction.

Wang Ziru was also full of joy, flattering: "Elder Lin, please tell us what you want us to do. As long as we can do it, we will definitely do our best!"

Lin Jichen remained calm and chuckled: "I do have two things to tell you."

"Elder Lin, please tell me."

Lin Jichen said casually: "First, find me a quiet place to retreat. I want to retreat and heal my wounds."

As he said that, he shook his empty sleeve on the left and said helplessly: "You also know that I am seriously injured and I broke my arm. I need to heal my wounds."

Zhen Shaoming immediately patted his chest and said: "No problem! Elder Lin, don't worry, you can heal your wounds. If you need any medicinal materials, just tell us and we will do our best to get them for you!"

"That's not necessary. All the medicinal materials I need are They are top-quality items. It is difficult to get them with your cultivation and connections, so don't bother. . "

Lin Jichen paused, took Zhen Shaoming's arm and walked aside, then said in an embarrassed voice:

"As for the second thing, you also know that I need some top-quality herbs, so I may go out to look for them frequently during my retreat, but the sect punished me to stay at the branch altar and not go out, so..."

Zhen Shaoming immediately showed a knowing look after hearing this, and laughed: "Don't worry, Elder Lin, I understand, I understand, you can go out, and if the sect asks, I will say that you are in retreat, and I will never betray you!"

"Hahaha, that's good, that's good!" Lin Jichen patted Zhen Shaoming's shoulder with an expression that he was very sensible, and then took out a large bag of spirit stones and stuffed it in.

Zhen Shaoming took it and glanced at it. After finding that there were more than 10,000 low-grade spirit stones in it, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes, but he hid it well.

"Thank you, Elder Lin. Haha, I won't be polite then."

Zhen Shaoming couldn't help but accept Lin Jichen's 'bribe' and thanked him repeatedly.

The two seemed to have become close friends, calling each other brothers, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Only Liu Hanbin opened his mouth and hesitated to speak, and finally sighed in disappointment and turned toHe left.

There was no abnormality at the scene because of his departure. Lin Jichen was still chatting with Zhen Wang.

In the evening, Lin Jichen was arranged to rest in a quiet cave in the back mountain of the branch altar.

The environment of the back mountain is very good, but it is a little far from the branch altar.

"Elder Lin, if you have any instructions, just call the guarding disciples outside. If they can't solve it, I will definitely come to solve it."

Wang Ziru sent him here, smiling respectfully.

Lin Jichen also responded politely: "Thank you, Elder Wang, please go back."

"As you wish."

Wang Ziru left happily, walked out of the cave and told the guarding disciples a few words, and then flew back to the branch altar.

When he returned to the branch altar, Zhen Shaoming had been waiting for a long time.

"How is it? Nothing unusual, right?"

Wang Ziru grinned and said, "Don't worry, Lin Jichen is easy to talk to, and he doesn't care about the branch temple at all. I just tried to tell him that there were disciples in the branch temple who violated the rules and went down the mountain, but he didn't care at all. He also said that he didn't want to care about anything in the branch temple, and just wanted to wait for his arm to recover and return to the sect."

Zhen Shaoming was happy to hear this and said, "That's right, who is Lin Jichen? He is the master's disciple. If he has to manage, he should manage the entire Sword Sect. This branch temple thousands of miles away is simply not worth mentioning to him. What's more, how can he, a child of destiny, look down on this place?"

"That's the best. As long as he doesn't come to disturb our big things, he can do whatever he wants. Just don't be discovered." Wang Ziru said proudly.

Zhen Shaoming still had concerns and said, "I'm still a little worried. Let's take a break these days. All the disciples should stay in the branch temple honestly and wait for a few days."

"Well, that's good. It's better to be safe than sorry. I will let the guard disciples report every day." Wang Ziru nodded in agreement.

"And Liu Hanbin, this guy, must be warned not to meddle in other people's business. His wife and daughter are in our hands. If he dares to talk nonsense, let him know the consequences!"

"Okay, I'll go find him now."

The two of them separated and the branch temple soon fell into silence at night. It seemed that everything was normal...
