"Thank you, Sir, for your understanding."
Qin Dong smiled knowingly, knowing that the other party had no ill intentions, and simply let the previous turmoil disappear.
Just because he is at odds with the seven major families does not mean that everyone in the Holy Empire is evil.
Among the many people I have come into contact with, there are many who can still distinguish right from wrong and know what is right and what is wrong.
Obviously, the Lord Gao Yan in front of him is one of them.
"Qin Dong, now the gap in cultivation between you and me is extremely close. You are no longer a little guy in Huangji Taoist Palace. Why don't you change your title and call me Gao Xiong?"
Gao Yanjun changed the subject and suddenly said.
"This... Sir, in Qin Dong's heart, you have always been a person worthy of respect. How can you change your title just because your realm has improved?" Qin Dong said with a surprised look. He seemed not to realize that the immortal The identity of a disciple has great power in the secular world.
"In terms of identity, maybe you are a sinner of the empire. But in the outside world, if I guessed correctly, you are most likely to have become a high-ranking true disciple among the immortal sect. Speaking of which, I actually took advantage of you. Cheap, if this title is not changed and spreads out, someone will say that I am Meng Lang."
Gao Yanjun explained.
"Okay, since the First Master doesn't mind, from now on, I will change my name to Brother Gao."
Qin Dong said helplessly.
"This is the best. You and I should treat each other as brothers, so we don't think we are outsiders."
Gao Yanjun laughed, not caring at all that Qin Dong was a criminal in the empire, let alone treating him as a wanted criminal.
"Brother Gao, now that I've said it, I won't hide it anymore. If we want to wash away Xiao Jiyuan's grievances and let him out of prison, how should we go about this process?" Qin Dong asked seriously.
Gao Yanjun said with a smile: "This is difficult to say, easy to say, but it is also extremely easy. The key is, are you a disciple of the Immortal Sect? What is your status in the Immortal Sect?"
"Oh? Is it important whether you are a disciple of the Immortal Sect?"
Qin Dong said in shock.
"That's natural."
Gao Yanjun said bluntly: "As long as you obtain the Immortal Ascension Order, you will have the opportunity to become a disciple of the Immortal Sect. Therefore... ordinary Immortal Sect disciples, in the empire, will at most receive more attention and have great potential. "
"As for high-level immortal sect disciples, such as inner sect disciples and true disciples... as long as they are promoted to this level, one day, when they return to the empire, they will be crowned kings and prime ministers. They are extremely noble beings. If there are such people as guarantors, but It’s just to release Xiao Jiyuan, so what’s the difficulty?”
After listening to the explanation, Qin Dong changed his mind and immediately understood the reason.
Ordinary Immortal Sect disciples, as the name suggests, refer to outer sect disciples.
People like this have a low status in the Immortal Sect and are basically low-level people.
It sounds high-end and extremely rare, but it is not enough to influence the empire in the secular world and obtain the right to pardon.
But if you become an inner disciple or a true disciple, it's completely different.
This kind of genius is a powerful figure in the Immortal Sect. Once he returns to the empire, he will immediately become a prince. Even the kings of the country must take it seriously when they see it and show courtesy. If they want to guarantee , is a golden signboard, who dares to ignore it?
If he hadn't been extremely certain in his heart that Qin Dong was a disciple of the Immortal Sect and one of the best among them, how could Lord Gao Yan give him such face? Meeting Qin Dong alone?
In the world of warriors, the strong are respected.
The source of all these changes lies in "strength"!
"Brother Gao, if you want to prove Xiao Jiyuan's true identity, can I still satisfy you if I don't know this thing?"
Understanding the key, Qin Dong took out a small jade sword. With a thought, he took it out and floated it in front of Gao Yanjun.
This small jade-colored sword has a golden word "Wu" engraved on it, as well as the totem of the Qianyang Sword Sect. The seal is carved on it, and it is densely covered with Dharma patterns, revealing an extremely astonishing aura.
It was the token given by Elder Wu before Qin Dong set off.
Originally, Qin Dong had no intention of displaying this token, lest his true identity be exposed too early, but in order to save Xiao Jiyuan and avoid causing further trouble, he no longer cared about much.
"This...is this the identity token of the Qianyang Sword Sect? Or is it the great elder's?"
Gao Yanjun's expression changed drastically, and even his breathing became constricted.
He thought that it was a miracle that Qin Dong became a true disciple. Unexpectedly, this little guy's status was so high that he even gained the attention of the senior officials of the Qianyang Sword Sect.
In shock, Lord Gao Yan did not dare to reach out to pick up the token and verify the authenticity of the small jade sword.
"Brother Gao, don't be so nervous. This token... was given by the great elder to help me defend myself. It won't hurt anyone. If you want to confirm its authenticity, just verify it."
Qin Dong said calmly.
"If this token is genuine, not to mention protecting Xiao Jiyuan, even with your identity, you will no longer be a sinner of the Holy Empire and can directly receive the Empire's pardon!"
Gao Yanjun said with a cautious expression.
After saying that, he calmed down and stopped worrying. He first took off the small jade sword, then said "later" to Qin Dong, then left the pavilion, stretched out his figure, vacated the small courtyard, and disappeared.
Qin Dong drank tea quietly, neither exploring nor thinking too much, but waiting silently in the pavilion.
He knew that it involved the Qianyang Sword Sect and was related to Elder Wu. As Gao Yanjun, it was no longer enough to deal with it. What's more, he had to guarantee Xiao Jiyuan, so the news of his return would be in the Holy In the empire, it is naturally not a secret.
Even so, Qin Dong still has no fear. He is now a disciple of the Immortal Sect, and he still carries the token of the great elder of the Qianyang Sword Sect. He also has a mission. If those old guys in the Holy Empire don't understand, what will happen to him? Kill every one you see until these old stubborns bow their heads.
What's more, before returning, Qin Dong had already investigated that the Holy Empire was only a medium-sized empire, and it was quite rare for several high-level Saint Yuan realms to appear.
As for the flying realm?
Such a scary character may exist, but such a big shot usually cherishes his life very much, and his whereabouts are mysterious, coming and going without a trace. He rarely shows up, and the probability of being encountered by him is almost less than 10%.
Secondly, if you kill yourself, you will offend the Qianyang Sword Sect. Knowing this, such a big shot will even less show up.
Not to mention, Qin Dong was targeting only the seven major families from the beginning to the end, not the royal family of the Holy Empire. If he wanted to overthrow the Holy Empire, the other party would only get involved if he took the wrong medicine.
It took two full hours for Gao Yanjun to leave.
It wasn't until Qin Dong finished drinking the third pot of tea that Gao Yanjun returned to the small courtyard with an old man in brocade and splendid clothes, belatedly arriving with a serious face.
Qin Dong didn't need to guess, he knew that he had taken out Elder Wu's token, which caused a great shock within the Holy Empire. After such a long delay, he probably weighed the pros and cons for a long time before he decided on the method of disposal and sent People came to negotiate.
Therefore, when the two people arrived, Qin Dong did not speak first. Instead, he smiled and looked at Gao Yanjun calmly.
Gao Yanjun blinked at Qin Dong, indicating that everything was going very smoothly and asking him to calm down. Then he pointed at the old man in rich clothes and introduced: "Qin Dong, this is Elder Yan Yingxian. He ranks seventh among the Imperial Council of Elders, why don’t you come over and meet the seventh elder soon?”
