First, he absorbed the spiritual energy from Little Blue, then returned the pure spiritual energy of the three Spirit Crystals.

In the end, Lin Yun once again obtained thirty-eight Spirit Crystals.

Then, Lin Yun and his group left the hall.

"Brother, you're such a nice person...

"Mm, brother, when will you come again...

As Lin Yun was leaving, Little White and Little Blue expressed their reluctance to part with him.

Lin Yun found it amusing.

These two little guys, even dared to give him a 'good guy' card.

Previously, these little guys were scared of him.

Now, they wanted him to visit again.

But he didn't know whether these two little guys really thought he was a good person, or they were after the pure spiritual energy in him.

Truth be told, he was indeed a good person.

Another practitioner would not necessarily spare these little guys.

The Sanqing Palace had two halls, one in the front, one in the middle, and actually one more at the back, though it could hardly be called a hall, only a small temple.

Having found three spiritual items in the first hall, Lin Yun had high hopes for the hall and temple behind.

However, after looking around, Lin Yun did not find anything.

It was a great disappointment to him.

By the time he returned from the Sanqing Palace to the county town, it was noon, twelve o'clock.

On the way back, Lin Yun began to check the progress of the authorities.

At midnight, he knew that Secretary Zhu had not taken any action.

He had given him a chance, but since he didn't want it, Lin Yun was not going to be polite anymore.

After midnight, he sent some prepared information to higher-ranking officials.

The information was not only about the problem with Secretary Zhu.

It also included the personal issues of the high-ranking officials to whom he sent the information.

You could say it was a threat.

If they didn't do as he said, they would be in trouble.

Under Lin Yun's operation, images appeared before him one by one.

These were images filtered out by the super brain's surveillance.

Among them were some secretive images.

"It seems that they are not fearless after all..." Ten minutes later, Lin Yun's eyes narrowed slightly as he murmured.

Many people say that the decisions made by the authorities are slow.

But it wasn't that slow at all, only a morning had passed, and they had done most of the work already.

Perhaps they were too afraid of the information he sent.

He simply stated that he didn't want Secretary Zhu in Immortal Origin County any longer, and they immediately dismissed him.

Indeed, many things the authorities don't usually investigate, but once they do, they take it very seriously.

The information he sent, if the authorities latch onto it, would be enough to dismiss Secretary Zhu.

At the same time, he recommended a more honest and responsible official to fill the position.

They did as he suggested.

Lin Yun shook his head gently, putting this matter aside.

Originally, he had always wondered what the clash between him and the authorities would look like, he didn't expect it to be this simple.

...

In the main government building of Immortal Origin County, within an office.

Secretary Zhu became dispirited after receiving a phone call.

He was dismissed?

He was actually dismissed?

He remembered the serious words of the man on the other end of the phone.

"Old Zhu, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that you've offended someone you shouldn't have offended. Don't try to use other connections. You know what you've done. The fact that you're being let off with a simple dismissal is already quite fortunate..."

The sentence, like a thunderbolt, left Secretary Zhu numb all over.

He had offended someone he shouldn't have.

At this moment, he thought of Lin Yun.

The thing was, Lin Yun had just said those words to him yesterday.

And today, he was dismissed.

The speed was just too fast.

Even counting from the day Lin Yun returned to Immortal Origin County, it had only been four or five days, this was still just too fast.

His heart was filled with shock and turmoil.

Just what kind of person was Lin Yun to be able to do this?

At this moment, he regretted everything.

He entered the officialdom at the age of twenty-three, struggled hard for sixteen years, made countless calculations, and finally reached where he was.

He could see that the future was bright.

But in one night, everything went back to square one.

All because of a face-saving project he undertook casually.

Even as late as yesterday, the other party had given him a chance.

To resign voluntarily.

But he didn't take it serious.

Today, he had to pay the price.

Not just a resignation, but a dismissal.

The price was too high.

He deeply regretted it.

He regretted the face-saving project he undertook casually.

He regretted his overconfidence and not rescinding the order in time.

If he had listened to his secretary's advice and rescinded the order promptly, the outcome might have been different.

He regretted not taking Lin Yun's words to heart yesterday.

If he had taken it seriously then and applied for a transfer immediately, the outcome might have been different too.

...

In the afternoon, the news of Secretary Zhu's dismissal was gradually spreading in Immortal Origin County.

"What? Secretary Zhu was dismissed?"

"Are you sure it was dismissal? Not a transfer?"

Many senior figures in Immortal Origin County were astonished.

They were truly shocked.

Originally, they thought they would watch and see if Secretary Zhu would run into any problems soon.

The time frame might be ten days, half a month, even a month, or longer.

But to their surprise, the news came today.

The speed of this problem surfacing was just too fast.

Moreover, the problem was huge the moment it occurred.

"This must be Lin Yun's doing..."

"With an order coming down so quickly, what kind of background does Lin Yun have, could he have connections reaching to the sky..."

Afterwards, some senior figures in Immortal Origin County gasped.

Unless they were fools, they would know that this incident was very likely related to Lin Yun.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have cared about Secretary Zhu's face last time and tried to curry favor with him..."

"What a pity... I missed a great opportunity...I actually didn't believe him yesterday... Otherwise, with my abilities, getting the chance to cooperate with him shouldn't have been difficult..."

"Three hundred billion, oh, a three hundred billion project a year, just slipped away..."

After that, some of the senior figures in Immortal Origin County expressed their regret one after another.

"Secretary Zhu is actually dismissed, what about the fifteen million I invested last time..."

"I never thought that the result would be this severe..."

Qi Shengli, the owner of Harri Real Estate who had spent fifteen million on half a bottle of Elite Green Cloud at Wangxian Tower, was first stunned, then somewhat bitter at hearing the news.

At this moment, he felt very heavy.

This time, he really suffered a big loss.

Not just the loss of fifteen million, but also the missed opportunity to make a connection with such a person and the chance to cooperate with him.

And....he might have offended him.

Even a government official like Secretary Zhu was brought down by him.

He had endless funding.

If he targeted him - a small businessman, how could Qi be a match for him?

He had a lot of assets in Immortal Origin County, it would be difficult for him to retrieve them all at once.

If he had known, he wouldn't have stepped forward last time.

At this moment, he deeply regretted it.

He knew that the other party had terrifying funds, dared to embarrass a government official like Secretary Zhu, and probably had enormous power behind him, but he still stepped forward.

He really deserved it...

The situation had gotten to this point, it was entirely his own doing.

Now, he could only hope that such a big player as Lin Yun had overlooked him all along.

Every major rise of a merchant is actually a gamble.

It's just a matter of odds of winning or losing.

This time, he lost the bet.
