Chapter 36: Conflict
(2nd Update)
"Young Lord, is this just a branch of the Rune Master Guild? Why does it feel so magnificent, larger than our lord's mansion, right? Lin Zhicheng said a little stupidly.
"Of course, there can be a lot of rune masters like the young lord here, they have a noble status, how can the place where they live be small?" Lin Zhigang hurriedly said with a smile.
"Lord Sols, do you know that there are many branches of the Rune Master Guild on the continent?" Lin Xiaoxi asked.
"It's not much, I heard that there seem to be only sixteen branches, and there is only this southeast branch within a radius of 100,000 miles around Qiankun City, so the rune masters in the surrounding 100,000 miles area will be invited to join here." Sauls said.
"It is estimated that the chapters of those large territory lord cities in the central part are more atmospheric." Lin Xiaoxi sighed and asked, "Then how many rune masters are there in this Southeast Branch?" Is there a fourth-order rune grandmaster? โ
"The president of our Southeast Branch, Mobit, is a fourth-order rune master, the three vice presidents are all third-order rune masters, and more than ten elders and deacons are all second-order rune masters, and there are forty or fifty first-order rune masters, in addition to more than a hundred rune apprentices.
It's just that the president, Grandmaster Mobit, doesn't like to show up, and some of the other vice presidents and elder deacons also like to wander around, so now the vice president is Master Ollie Rum, who is in charge of the branch. Sols introduced Lin Xiaoxi in detail the situation of the Southeast Rune Master Branch.
"So, we're going to see Vice President Ollie Rum?" Lin Xiaoxi asked.
"Yes, I already reported to Vice President Ollie Rum last night, and he promised to put everything down to see you this morning, and this kind of treatment is rare for a new rune master." Sauls said very proudly, as if Lin Xiaoxi was taken seriously and he was also honored.
After entering the rune master branch, you can see rune masters in purple robes from time to time along the way, most of them are in their thirties and forties, and there are even many old people in their fifties and sixties.
And even though Thor was already a fifth-level Martial Venerable, he would respectfully stop and greet each rune master he encountered, and most of those rune masters who only had the cultivation of a grandmaster did not respond to him.
"Lord Sols, why don't you see too many rune masters?" After entering the rune master branch for more than ten minutes, Lin Xiaoxi found that there were only five or six rune masters he encountered, which was very different from the scene he imagined where people came and went everywhere.
"That's because most of the rune masters don't usually stay here, they also have their own businesses and their own homes, and some like to wander around, so there are only about 20 rune masters living in the branch.
However, a month later comes the annual Runemaster Conference, where almost all the runemasters in the chapter will return for the event, and they will be back soon. โ
While speaking, the group came to a tall building in the middle of the branch, which was the tallest building in the branch, and there was only one building in the city lord's mansion, that is, the Qiankun lord's mansion, which was as tall as it.
"This is where President Mobile and several vice presidents work, the top floor is for Grandmaster Mรถbit, and the lower floors are for the three vice presidents. Vice President Ollie Rum is on the first floor, so let's go straight in. Arriving at the door of the building, Sauls said excitedly.
"Stop." Just as they were about to enter the door, they were suddenly stopped by a loud shout.
"Master Liu Qingfeng, hello." Sauls turned his head to look, his face suddenly changed, and he lowered his head and greeted respectfully.
"What is this place? Shall you trespass freely? "The one who scolded them was a young man in a purple robe, about twenty-four or five years old, whose cultivation strength was only a third-level grandmaster, but he didn't take Thor of the fifth-level martial venerable in his eyes at all.
"I was invited by Vice President Ollie Rum to join the Rune Master Guild, and I have made an appointment with Vice President Ollie Rum to come and meet this morning, I don't know what Your Excellency means by this?"
Although Lin Xiaoxi was unwilling to make enemies before entering the Rune Master Guild, he felt that this Liu Qingfeng seemed to have a prejudice against him, and on the surface, he seemed to be scolding Sols, but in fact he was coming at Lin Xiaoxi.
"Hmph, you're not a member of the Rune Master Guild yet, so you're not qualified to talk to me yet." Sure enough, Liu Qingfeng snorted mercilessly at Lin Xiaoxi.
"We're going to see Vice President Ollie Rum, not you? Why stop us? Lin Xiaoxi asked coldly.
"Vice President Ollie Rum is going to receive Dongfang Qi, the Lord of the East, and Dongfang Ping, the genius rune master he brought, today, how can there be time to waste on you? If you can wait, just wait outside, and if you can't wait, you will get out of here. Liu Qingfeng said contemptuously, and then went straight into the office building.
"What is the identity of this Liu Qingfeng? So awesome? After Liu Qingfeng entered, Sauls looked at Lin Xiaoxi with a difficult face, and Lin Xiaoxi asked with a frown.
"Master Liu Qingfeng is currently the elder in charge of reviewing new rune masters, and he is also the youngest second-order rune master in the Southeast Branch, and the second-order rune master who just advanced last year.
Moreover, he is also a disciple of Vice President Ollie Rum, so if he says bad things about us in front of Vice President Ollie Rum, I am afraid it will be a little disadvantageous for you to join the Rune Master Guild. Sauls said.
"What about Dongfang Qi and Dongfang Ping? What is the origin? Lin Xiaoxi thought for a moment, and then asked.
"Dongfang Territory and another medium-sized territory bordering Qiankun Domain in the east, Dongfang Qi is the lord of Dongfang Domain, and his status is equivalent to that of Qiankun Lord Li Qiankun, and his cultivation is a ninth-level peak Venerable.
I've heard people talk about it before, saying that Dongfang has led a genius rune master, and at the age of twenty, he may be able to advance to a second-order rune master, and it should be this Dongfang Ping. Saulse said.
"Hmph, isn't it still advanced yet? Our young lord is a genuine second-order rune master, and he is only seventeen years old, but the real genius is not taken seriously by them, I don't think this rune master guild will join it. Lin Zhicheng muttered beside him.
"Lord Sols, I'm sorry to let you be wronged, but please rest assured, one day Liu Qingfeng will change his attitude towards you. Since Vice President Ollie Rum is very busy this morning, I will not wait, but I will go find another house to live in, and when the Vice President is free, I will come to visit him again. โ
Lin Xiaoxi thought about it, no matter whether Liu Qingfeng deliberately wanted to harm himself or not, he believed that it wouldn't be long before the people of the Rune Master Branch would know him, after all, it didn't seem difficult for him to become a third-order Rune Master.
