I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong

Tian Lin, after inquiring along the way, finally found the location of Chen Xian Inn in Peace Square.

However, this courtyard was crowded inside and outside with too many Golden Core Cultivators.

These people all claimed to be from Wu Xilai's hometown, but even Tian Lin knew that those entering the Heavenly Gate this time were no more than two handfuls.

And yet, blocking the entrance of the courtyard, there were at least hundreds of Golden Core Cultivators.

"Please be patient, please be patient. Everyone write your visiting cards, and I will register your names for you—when my master is free, he will look over the visiting cards and invite the fellow Daoists!"

Due to the large number of people, Elder Wu Hen had to ask familiar aristocratic families to send some house servants to maintain order.

In this way, he wouldn't have to personally deal with these people trying to deceive.

"How shameless are these cultivators? When did our 'hometown' ever have these so-called countrymen?"

Elder Wu Hen and Wu Xilai observed the street's situation from a courtyard attic.

The street was packed tightly by Golden Core Cultivators at this time.

All of them claimed to be Wu Xilai's countrymen, but Elder Wu Hen knew these people were impostors.

Because, in the eyes of Wu Xilai and Elder Wu Hen, only those with Nascent Soul Cultivation could possibly break into the Heavenly Gate and come to this world.

As for those Golden Core Cultivators, let alone breaking into the Heavenly Gate. They couldn't even survive the Sword Qi of the Immortal Sinking Pond.

"Sycophancy and tendency to follow the powerful are natural human tendencies; becoming a cultivator doesn't change that."

Wu Xilai said, "The notices have been posted for a few days, have you heard any news of your two senior brothers?"

Elder Wu Hen shook his head, then added, "Perhaps my two senior brothers were delayed on the road, which is why they haven't arrived in the capital yet."

"Then let's wait a little longer!"

Wu Xilai glanced at the street again, eventually shook his head, and left.

Just as he left, two newly arrived house servants ran over, arms full of visiting cards, and said, "Master, we received a few hundred in just one morning."

Wu Xilai casually picked up a visiting card, glanced at the words 'Golden Core,' and then tossed it to the ground.

He picked up another visiting card, but its owner was still at the Golden Core Cultivation—

Seeing this, Wu Xilai threw all of the visiting cards away and scolded the house servants, "From now on, you vet these cards yourself; do not present any card to me unless it belongs to someone with Nascent Soul Cultivation."

The house servants were momentarily stunned, unsure why hometown people of Golden Core Cultivators or Foundation Establishment were not considered countrymen?

But the two house servants dared not ask more questions, nodded quickly, and took the pile of visiting cards away.

They threw the visiting cards in a room specifically set for them and quietly slipped out of the courtyard.

At the entrance of the courtyard, there were still many people submitting visiting cards.

One of the house servants had barely seated when a young man promptly handed over a visiting card.

But this house servant did not check the information on the card; he simply asked the young man, "I saw you just a few days ago, didn't you already submit a card? Why are you back now?"

The young man replied quickly, "I have waited long without Wu Master's summon, so I suspected he might have overlooked my card while reviewing them, thus I came to resubmit."

The house servant angrily said, "Are you here to play games with me? For no reason, why make me go through extra trouble?"

The young man took out a Low Grade Spirit Stone and slipped it into the house servant's hand, saying, "Brother, please don't be mad, this is just a little token of my appreciation for you."

Though a Low Grade Spirit Stone is not valuable for a house servant at the Golden Core Realm,

in this end time, once a Spirit Stone is used, it's gone. Hence, a Low Grade Spirit Stone can't compare in value to its worth in prosperous times.

The house servant accepted the stone and did not scold the young man anymore. However, upon reopening the young man's visiting card, he noticed the young man's origin had changed from Red Silk Town to Nantang Town.

Red Silk Town and Nantang Town were worlds apart with no real connection.

Nonetheless, the house servant was used to it; he knew that everyone was guessing where Wu Xilai's hometown truly was—thus with every submission, if these people failed once, they immediately changed origins and resubmitted.

But with the vastness of the Daqi Dynasty, it was hard to know how many thousands of states, counties, and towns there were.

Wu Xilai refused to disclose his origins, so for those wishing to establish ties, who knows how long they would have to guess correctly.

However, regardless of whether they guessed correctly, the house servant knew that the barriers preventing these people from establishing ties weren't just origin but also cultivation level.

"What? Even people from the Foundation Establishment Stage are here?"

After sending the young man away, the house servant looked at Tian Lin in front of him.

Tian Lin said, "Even the emperor has some poor relatives. Though I'm at the Foundation Establishment, I am indeed from Wu Master's hometown."

The house servant said, "Your hometown is Immortal Sinking Pond? Haha, thinking that having 'Immortal Sinking' in the name would link you to Master Wu?"

He glanced at Tian Lin's visiting card but did not throw it away.

Anyway, these cards before him, he would eventually toss into the courtyard's small room.

"Senior, after submitting the visiting card, how long until I can see Master Wu?"

Tian Lin was unwilling to leave immediately and thus asked in front of the house servant.

The house servant, seated on the bench, did not look up, saying, "When my master is free and confirms you are his countryman, a notice will be posted at the entrance. When you see your name on it, come find me."

This answer was no different from what others got; the house servant spoke the same to all visitors.

But, after a few days, there was no notice posted at the courtyard's entrance, indicating that there still hadn't been a single countryman.

"Old Man Tingyu still wants to stay with the Wang Family and refuses to come to Chen Xian Inn to reveal his identity. So thinking of relying on him to introduce me to Wu Xilai seems impossible."

Tian Lin thought, without meeting Wu Xilai, how could he attach himself?

He waited here for two more days but saw no notice posted.

Tian Lin also followed others, resubmitting his visiting card twice, but still no response. Therefore, he stopped being anxious to resubmit.

That afternoon, while Tian Lin was staying at the Chen Xian Inn entrance, he finally saw the dwarf elder who appeared as imposing as an iron tower.

Tian Lin quickly rose to greet, but then immediately shut his mouth.

"Why is another Foundation Establishment Stage here?"

What caught Tian Lin's attention wasn't the voice of the house servant, but the young man standing before the servant.

"Alright, alright, just go back and wait for news!"

The house servant impatiently told the young man, and casually threw his visiting card onto the table.

The sword-bearing young man didn't persist, merely turning away and leaving.

That young man didn't notice Tian Lin standing outside the crowd, oblivious to Tian Lin's uncertain expression.

The young man quickly left, and just as Tian Lin was about to follow him, the dwarf elder's hand fell on Tian Lin's shoulder, "Ah, young lad, what brings you here too?"

Tian Lin was about to greet the dwarf elder, but upon seeing Shang Yu, he immediately held his tongue.

But when Tian Lin was about to follow Shang Yu, the dwarf elder appeared again, interrupting Tian Lin's plan.
