Upon hearing Lin Ye's words, Yan Xun nodded and said, "That's right! It's been so many years since I last went home, it's about time I went back to have a look!"

After pausing for a moment, he continued, "Whenever you come, that room will always be reserved for you!"

As the most elite suite in the top hotel in Shenzhen, that room was actually meant to accommodate important guests.

Most of the time, it's actually left vacant.

Because people with money have their own homes and don't need to stay in hotels.

Of course, the main reason is…

That suite is not something that money can buy accommodation for.

Sometimes, you don't even need money to stay there.

Take the current Lin Ye, for example…

If he stays there, it's basically free of charge, because as a top hotel, they aren't lacking in money.

But the reputation of having important guests, to them, is immensely important.

Even if Lin Ye doesn't actually stay there, it doesn't matter…

Because what the hotel wants is just that reputation.

It's like using Lin Ye as a means to attract business, so it can't be said that Lin Ye is taking advantage.

After all, this is a win-win situation.

After chatting for a while longer, Yan Xun bid farewell to everyone, as it was not easy for him to carve out this time given his schedule.

So he couldn't stay too long; after chatting for a bit, he hurriedly left.

"Alright, I should get busy too!" Seeing Yan Xun leave, Marshal Gu felt it was inappropriate to keep bothering Lin Ye and wasting time, so he also said he had to get busy.

He then left the VIP room, leaving the space for Chen Daosheng and Lin Ye, the master and apprentice.

"Don't use the pretext of returning to Shan City to secretly go leveling." Chen Daosheng instructed at this point.

"A sharpened axe doesn't delay the work of cutting firewood, I understand that!" Lin Ye chuckled.

After all, Chen Daosheng hadn't forgotten his old profession as a teacher and remained the same to this day.

"As long as you understand! I don't have much to miss about Shan City, so I won't accompany you back..." Chen Daosheng sighed.

Like Lin Ye, he was also an orphan, so indeed there wasn't much for him to miss there.

Lin Ye nodded slightly, recognizing that it was good for Chen Daosheng to leave Shan City.

Given his caliber, he should be on a grander stage, staying in a small place like Shan City wasted his talent.

"By the way, when you go back, help me send regards to President Zhang!" Chen Daosheng said again.

Lin Ye agreed and said, "Don't worry, even if you didn't say it, I would still go see President Zhang."

This so-called President Zhang is none other than Zhang Ruiqi, the chief officer of the Professional Center in Shan City.

When Lin Ye was in Shan City, he received many cares from her, so if he went back, he would certainly pay a visit.

Of course, there's also Bishop Liu Qingshan of Shan City Church, who had been kind to Lin Ye.

"By the way, have you heard of the Holy Flame Sect?"

At this moment, Chen Daosheng suddenly asked.

Lin Ye scratched his head upon hearing this, "I know a little. When I first came back, I watched the news and realized that this thing had emerged..."

Chen Daosheng then said, "Yes, the church in Shan City was the first to change flags, having separated from the Holy Light Church Court to become part of the Holy Flame Sect."

Hearing this, Lin Ye was speechless.

This truly caught him by surprise; he didn't think Liu Qingshan would play it so big!

The most astonishing part is that the Church Court could tolerate such a thing without taking action?

This isn't just a slap in the face, but a direct stab at the heart of the Holy Light Church Court!

"Are Bishop Liu and the others alright?" Lin Ye couldn't help but ask.

Chen Daosheng turned the teacup in his hand and said, "No problem, the Church Court's response this time is quite restrained..."

Upon hearing this, Lin Ye slightly raised an eyebrow.

This was why Chen Daosheng was suited for an official role...

Although the Church Court seemed cowardly, he insisted on calling it restraint, making it sound as if the Church Court could overturn the situation, a remarkable way with words.

It wasn't hard to analyze why the Church Court had been so 'restrained'.

Based on Lin Ye's understanding of the Church Court, if they had the capability, they would have stopped the rise of the Holy Flame Sect long ago.

If they couldn't absorb it into the Church Court, they would certainly label it heretical, suggesting it was a trick of the Abyss Demon God to divide humanity.

Anyway, the people within the Holy Core certainly wouldn't just surrender the Holy Flame's interpretative rights.

The only explanation is that the old men inside the Holy Core feel powerless against it, so they've chosen to play deaf and dumb in this matter.

This kind of thing, in the past, wasn't even conceivable.

"Looks like Alliance Leader Liu must have put some pressure on the old timers within the Holy Core..." Lin Ye pondered.

Only this could explain why the Church Court was so cowardly in this matter.

Furthermore, it isn't hard to imagine that the Alliance is undoubtedly involved in the rise of the Holy Flame Sect...

Considering Liu Tianyuan's intentions to meet him, it isn't hard to imagine that this entire situation was orchestrated by Liu Tianyuan.

Based on Lin Ye's knowledge from a previous timeline, Liu Tianyuan was likely to fail in breaking through to the Origin Realm within ten years and would fall.

By then, the alliance, having lost its leader, would rapidly lose its grip on human society.

With the Church Court no longer suppressed, it would act recklessly.

In the previous timeline, after Liu Tianyuan's demise, the human world did become more turbulent.

Now, Liu Tianyuan's arrangements appear to be a precaution against the Church Court's monopolization in the event of his demise.

As for Chen Daosheng telling Lin Ye about this, he didn't have any particular agenda—it was simply to inform him.

He didn't anticipate Lin Ye to have memories from another timeline and a much deeper understanding of the Church Court.

So with just this bit of information, Lin Ye was able to analyze so much.

"Also, the Gao Family... after Gao Lanlan disappeared, the Patriarch of the Gao Family has sold their assets and moved away..."

Chen Daosheng spoke again.

Hearing this, Lin Ye expressed slight surprise and asked, "Gao Lanlan disappeared? When did that happen?"

Chen Daosheng replied, "About three years ago, when you got lost in the Otherworld, she was the only hope of bringing you back, but that's when people found out she'd completely vanished."

"At first, people thought she was avoiding you out of personal grudges, refusing to help, but then she completely lost contact."

Truth be told, the number of Professionals who disappear in the Secret Realm every year is countless.

But the disappearance of someone as talented as Gao Lanlan was particularly lamentable.

"Some matters are best left in the past." Chen Daosheng continued.

Lin Ye nodded in agreement.

Better than anyone, he knew how Gao Lanlan died, and with her death, any entanglements with the Gao Family disappeared like smoke.

As for the Patriarch of the Gao Family, if he decided to sell off his assets and move to live a better life, Lin Ye naturally wouldn't trouble him further.

"Alright, if you're heading back to Shan City, I'll go help you apply to use the Teleportation Array now!" Chen Daosheng stood up and said.

"Okay! Thank you, teacher!" Lin Ye politely replied.

After wandering for over four years, he could finally go back home to take a look!
