Rebirth Of The Supreme Celestial Being (1-200)

146- Deadlock at City Gate

After all, many families' supervising officers were not willing to show their faces easily. The guards had long since gotten used to it.

After the inspection, the gate guard stared at the inscription at the top of the card. "Is this the Lin family from East Continent's Qing City?"

"Indeed." Lin Xuanzhi said.

The guard made an eye at the nearby gate guards, and the city guards who had originally been standing elsewhere scanning the convoys behind them started walking forward in an orderly fashion.

The gate guard holding the card walked to the side of the second carriage, stretched out his hand, and knocked on the door. He said coldly, "Get off the carriage."

"Why?" Asked Lin Xuanzhi.

"If I want you to get off, then you get off. Don't ask so much nonsense." The guard's tone was full of impatience and a sense of superiority that was difficult to ignore.

Yan Tianhen looked at Lin Xuanzhi, "Dage, I'll go down and take a look."

Before Lin Xuanzhi could answer, Yan Tianhen opened the door and jumped out of the carriage.

"What do you want?" Yan Tianhen asked.

When the city guard saw Yan Tianhen, his eyes wandered around his unnatural left foot and his cracked face. A slight look of disgust appeared in his narrowed eyes. "Are you the Lin family's supervising officer?"

Yan Tianhen blinked. "I'm his younger brother. If there is anything you want, just tell me."

"Then you can tell your Dage that we need to frisk the entire Lin family group before you can enter the city." The guard said with his head held high.

Yan Tianhen was stunned, his expression changing slightly. "Why? None of the families that entered before us had to be searched."

The gate guard hissed contemptuously. "Why? You are just a third-class family, yet unexpectedly, you dare to question this chief guard in our Sky Peak City? You'll do as I say if you want to be safe. Don't be so opinionated."

Yan Tianhen immediately felt like he had been insulted in public. He suppressed his anger, "Don't be so tyrannical!"

"Of course we'll tyrannize you fools who don't have eyes." Another chief guard clad in red robes walked over with a line of people. He swept a glance over the procession, "Everyone in Lin family's carriages, come out! Frisk them one by one!"

The carriage door opened again, and Lin Xuanzhi appeared in front of the crowd.

The gate guard looked at Lin Xuanzhi. His eyes were transfixed on Lin Xuanzhi's face - he had never seen such a perfect person before.

"You must be frisked in order to enter Sky Peak City, what kind of rule is this?" Lin Xuanzhi did not look angry and instead asked calmly.

The guard thought in his heart that this was a really stunning character while he said aloud, "This is the rule set down by the city lord. We, the guards of Sky Peak City, have full power to search any suspicious people we see."

Lin Xuanzhi said, "Do we look suspicious?"

The city guard smiled coldly. "I said you are suspicious, therefore you are suspicious. Why don't I go inside your carriage right this moment and search your body to see if there is anything suspicious."

Yan Tianhen instantly became furious, but just as he tightened his fist, Lin Xuanzhi held down his hand.

"I'm afraid that we cannot follow your wishes." Lin Xuanzhi said.
