_1 Mr.
Zhu?
Lin Chen’s pupils slightly contracted, a hint of anxiety flashed in his eyes.
Could it be that his previous concerns have really co true?
Zhu Zi’an, the Ancestor of the Zhu Family?
If it really is him, then all the planning today may fall apart, and even he might be caught here.
Master Xue Kuangren had explained to Lin Chen that the realms of cultivators are vastly different; a cultivator at the Inner Qi Stage can never defeat a grandmaster at the Gang Qi Stage.
Likewise, a grandmaster can never defeat a great grandmaster.
If you encounter an enemy great grandmaster, don’t bother, just run!
Lin Chen didn’t run.
He knew that if the other party was determined to deal with him, he couldn’t escape given the remoteness of the Chu Family’s Old Mansion.
Lin Chen turned to glance at Leng Yucheng, Xu Lanshan, and Wei Qinggang, noticing that the smiles on their faces suddenly vanished, replaced by solemnity and anxiety.
Xu Lanshan asked in a deep voice, “The Mr.
Zhu you ntioned is?”
Chu Songfeng sneered, “The number one person in Linhai, Great Grandmaster Mr.
Zhu.
Do you think I would give you all a chance to wipe out the Chu Family if it weren’t for Mr.
Zhu’s presence?”
Zhu Zi’an walked out of the room at a leisurely pace and with a faint smile on his face.
“The eight great families of Linhai, five are gathered here today.
It’s been a long ti since we had such a lively event.”
There was a stir among the teams from the Leng, Xu, and Wei families.
Many people’s eyes were filled with apprehension, reverence, and concern.
In contrast, all the cultivators in the Chu Family camp showed elation, their uneasiness fading as they looked on with expectation and satisfaction.
Xu Lanshan asked, “Mr.
Zhu, what’s your intention in being here today?”
Leng Yucheng furrowed his brow and said, “Are you going to help the Chu Family annihilate us?”
Zhu Zi’an chuckled, “Not exactly.
We Eight Great Families have been living in peace for so many years.
I think it’s quite good this way.
Today, I’m here not only to repay a favor to the Chu Family but also to avoid a situation where everyone fights.
Isn’t it better for all of us to continue living in peace?”
The mbers of the Leng, Xu, and Wei families all breathed a sigh of relief at once.
This old guy apparently didn’t plan to take action against their group.
It seed that he still had so scruples.
After all, although he was a great grandmaster, he was only one person with two hands.
It would be impossible for him to wipe out their three families.
However, if the three families were to counterattack together, the Zhu Family would suffer trendous losses, even if not annihilated.
Xu Lanshan asked, “So, you an if we don’t take action today and just leave, you won’t take action either, right?”
Zhu Zi’an laughed, “Yes, as long as the Xu, Wei, and Leng families don’t act today, you can leave whenever you want.”
Lin Chen’s heart sank, as he only ntioned the Xu, Wei, and Leng families but not himself.
It seed that the favor he owed the Chu Family would fall on him.
Leng Yucheng glanced at Lin Chen and asked, “What about Lin Chen?”
Chu Songfeng smiled, “Lin Chen has a deep grudge with our Chu Family.
He killed my son’s bodyguard Chen Huai and my brother, Grandmaster Chu Songhan.
He’s also the mastermind behind today’s events.
Since he’s here, there’s no way he can leave.
Today, our Chu family will settle the score with him!”
Leng Yucheng hesitated, “Since we ca together, if we want to stop, we should stop together.
Why don’t we just let it go today and discuss it later?”
With a complicated look in his eyes, Xu Lanshan ultimately said, “Lin Chen has done a great favor for my Xu family.
Can you please give so face and let him go today?”
Wei Qinggang laughed, “Our Wei Family doesn’t owe Lin Chen any favors, but since we’ve all joined forces, we are allies.
If we abandon our allies, we’re afraid the Wei Family will be ridiculed if this matter spreads.
Why don’t we discuss and find another solution?”
Lin Chen felt slightly surprised.
In his estimation, once Zhu Zi’an appeared and stated his stance, the three families of Xu, Wei, and Leng would imdiately cease and desist, distancing themselves.
However, he didn’t expect them to still speak up, trying to lend him a hand!
It seed that the great favors he had done in saving Leng Yucheng’s life and helping Xu Bin with his unspeakable difficulties made it impossible for them to simply ignore him.
As for the Wei Family, they were mortal enemies with the Chu Family, and wasn’t the enemy of one’s enemy a friend?
Moreover, with the Leng and Xu families standing up, if the Wei family, as the mortal enemy of the Chu family, were to walk away, the matter would likely spread, causing people to point fingers and ridicule them behind their backs.
Chu Songfeng sneered, “How do you propose to resolve this?
Do you think he has a way to bring Chen Huai and Chu Songhan back to life?
If he could really do it, what’s the harm in making peace with him?”
Lin Chen scoffed, “Your Chu Family has such a great air of prestige, allowing only the governnt to set fires while forbidding the people to light lamps, right?
Chu Tianyu tried to harm several tis in Pingjiang, and had I not had the strength of a grandmaster, I would have been dead.
So, you can kill , but I cannot fight back?”
“Enough nonsense.
A Chu family mber has died, so you must pay with your life!”
Chu Songfeng’s gaze swept over Xu Lanshan and the others, “As long as you three families don’t interfere today, everyone will be fine, and we can settle any debts later.
But if you interfere, don’t bla us for being ruthless!
Mr.
Zhu, take action and capture them!”
