Chapter 207: Chapter 207 Lin Family’s Peril

Jiangbei.

Lin Mansion.

"Family Head, a large number of people from Shihao Group have gathered outside; they might attack at any moment."

After investigating the situation, the butler came in and reported to Lin Yuexian.

Lin Yuexian, the eldest son of Lin Songbai and father of Lin Ruoxi, now held the position of the Lin Family head and was the actual manager of both the Martial Arts Hall and the Lin Group. As for Lin Songbai, after encountering Su Luo, he had retired to the background, focusing on the cultivation of Martial Arts.

"The people from Shihao Group are not the issue. The key threats are Wan Chuanxiong and Xia Tingjing from the Jinling Xia Family. These two Grandmasters are the biggest threats. If they take action, the consequences are unthinkable."

Lin Yuexian spoke in a heavy tone.

At this moment, the atmosphere inside the Lin Mansion was extremely tense.

The Martial Artists of the Lin Family Martial Arts Hall had almost all been summoned to guard the Lin Mansion, and most of the core members of the Lin Family had also gathered.

Only some of the younger generation had been arranged, in the past few days, to secretly leave Jiangbei to avoid the most critical situations. Should anything happen to the Lin Family, at least the family’s lineage would survive and would not be annihilated.

"Wan Chuanxiong, Pinnacle of Third-Grade Grandmaster!"

"Xia Tingjing, also a Third-Grade Grandmaster!"

"Can the old master stand against them?"

Although Lin Songbai was a Grandmaster, many people knew that the old master’s strength had soared recently. Still, facing two Third-Grade Grandmasters cast a shadow over their hearts.

After all, as a Martial Family, they were acutely aware of the prestige and imposing presence of Wan Chuanxiong, who once was Jiangbei’s top Grandmaster. They also knew that the old master had only barely managed to retain his Grandmaster status.

Even if his strength had recovered in the past half a year and he’d made a breakthrough to become a Second-Grade Grandmaster, that still wasn’t enough.

Even in the best-case scenario, if the old master miraculously broke through to Third-Grade Grandmaster, it would still be a one-versus-two situation.

No matter how they looked at it, their Lin Family had no chance of winning.

This did not take into account Zhou Shihao’s many subordinates. If they attacked together, the Lin Family would simply be unable to hold them off.

"All this trouble was caused by that guy Su Luo. If it weren’t for helping him, our Lin Family wouldn’t be facing such a dilemma, nor would we have fallen into such danger."

"I think we might as well hand over those few women."

Facing such a crisis, a junior member of the Lin Family couldn’t help but speak out.

Moreover, as this voice rang out, some also secretly echoed the sentiment.

Clearly, they believed that as long as they severed ties with Su Luo and refrained from helping him, they wouldn’t be involved in such a major conflict with Zhou Shihao’s forces.

"Shut your mouth."

However, at this moment, a cold voice suddenly erupted.

Lin Ruoxi stepped forward, her gaze chilling as she looked at the junior who had just blamed Su Luo.

The Lin Family junior didn’t dare to meet Lin Ruoxi’s eyes and lowered his head.

Lin Ruoxi’s gaze swept over the crowd; those who had echoed the sentiment did not dare to meet her gaze.

"Not to mention that Su Luo saved Grandpa from death’s door, he also healed Grandpa’s hidden injury and helped Grandpa break through in his Martial Arts. Do you understand what that means?"

"Without Su Luo, if something had happened to Grandpa, do you think our Lin Family would still have its current status in Jiangbei? Would people outside show you respect? Would you still be able to receive hundreds of thousands, even millions of spending money every month, luxury cars, mansions, and high-end goods?"

"And you people practicing martial arts, do you really think that your recent improvements, even some feeling it’s easier to develop Inner Strength, are because your talents have suddenly improved?"

"That’s because Su Luo provided a medicinal recipe that has been used on you; it’s Su Luo’s credit, not because you’ve become more talented!"

"Each and every one of you, now blaming Su Luo, thinking we shouldn’t help him. Do you have a conscience? If anyone dares say such things again, leave right now and no longer consider yourself a member of the Lin Family. I imagine Zhou Shihao’s people won’t trouble those who have been expelled from the Lin Family."

Lin Ruoxi said coldly.

These words made those who had just spoken in agreement feel deeply ashamed.

They knew they were in the wrong—their recent statements were indeed overly selfish and amounted to abandoning their benefactor after crossing the river.

Besides, they didn’t dare to retort.

Although Lin Ruoxi held no official position within Lin Group and seemed to lack real power in the family, among the younger generation of the entire Lin Family, no one could compare to her.

The Qingxi Group she founded was worth several billion, and she was a renowned beauty and CEO in Jiangbei. Her father was the current Family Head of Lin Family, and she was the favorite granddaughter of the old master. If she decided to target someone, that person was definitely in for misfortune.

"Su Luo is a benefactor of our Lin Family. Those words just now, no matter who said them, shall not be mentioned again!"

"Moreover, the old master has made a decision to advance and retreat together with Su Luo. He has ordered that anyone who opposes this will be expelled from the Lin Family," Lin Yuexian said coldly at this moment.

As the Family Head, he had spoken, and he had also conveyed the old master’s attitude. Who would dare to have objections after that?

"Of course, you don’t need to worry. A few days ago, Su Luo gave many elixirs to the old master. He is currently in seclusion, about to make another breakthrough. Dealing with Wan Chuanxiong and Xia Tingjing, the two Third-Grade Grandmasters, shouldn’t be a problem," Lin Yuexian said, providing a reassuring pill to everyone present.

Upon hearing these words,

joy instantly appeared on everyone’s faces.

The old master was about to make another breakthrough?

No wonder, with the situation as it was, the old master had not shown himself—so he was still in the midst of cultivation.

This was indeed good news.

It also made them all breathe a sigh of relief en masse.

...

Outside Lin Mansion.

Wan Chuanxiong and Xia Tingjing were sitting in a nanny van, exchanging martial arts insights and enjoying a pleasant conversation.

"Today’s exchange with Brother Xia has been most enlightening," Wan Chuanxiong said, clasping his fists in gratitude.

Xia Tingjing also responded with a fist salute, "Brother Wan’s insights into martial arts also gave me a sense of sudden clarity."

Both were quite satisfied with the exchange.

Then, Xia Tingjing inquired, "Brother Wan, how much longer do we wait here?"

Wan Chuanxiong replied, "We wait for Mr. Zhou’s call. If he’s captured Su Luo, we won’t have to make a move. If he hasn’t captured Su Luo, then we’ll take action here, seizing his dear friends and relatives to force Su Luo into submission."

"I hope we’ll receive good news," Xia Tingjing said through clenched teeth.

Su Luo had crippled the Family Head of the Xia Family in Jinling and was also in possession of many secrets. That’s why Xia Tingjing had traveled all this way to Jiangbei and was willing to collaborate with Zhou Shihao.

After capturing Su Luo, he intended to avenge Xia Hongbo and Xia Lianyun, as well as to share in the secrets extracted by Zhou Shihao.

Just then,

suddenly, Wan Chuanxiong’s phone rang.

Seeing that it was a call from Zhou Shihao, Wan Chuanxiong immediately answered.

"Launch your attack on the Lin Family immediately. You must capture Lin Songbai, Lin Ruoxi, even Lin Yuexian and his wife, as well as Rose, Xia Yi and her daughter," the voice of Zhou Shihao came through.

"Alright."

Wan Chuanxiong hung up the phone and decisively ordered an attack on the Lin Family.
