Chapter 1230: Chapter 1230: A Grand Financial Plan

After the Zhang family’s gray-robed elder handed the Spirit Stone to Lin Chen, he was about to lead the Zhang Family Martial Artists away. Suddenly, upon hearing Lin Chen’s words, he staggered and his expression turned somewhat unpleasant, letting out a light snort.

This time, having been ruthlessly extorted by Lin Chen, they naturally harbored a grudge against Lin Chen and saw no future opportunity for extortion by him.

With a cold glance at Lin Chen, the gray-robed elder ignored him and immediately turned to leave with the Zhang family members.

Originally, as they were leaving, the Zhang Family Martial Artists wanted to hurl some harsh words at Lin Chen. However, when they saw Lin Chen’s sinister smiling expression, they held back and said nothing.

After all, Lin Chen’s appearance now seemed to treat them like fat sheep.

To utter harsh words at this moment, if by any chance the Zhang family members fell into this guy’s hands again, wouldn’t it require the gray-robed elder to save them, causing them to lose all face?

Just now, when the gray-robed elder arrived, he directly gave them a scornful look, even contemplating abandoning them.

What use would it be for them to utter harsh words now? Previously, they had all fallen victim to Lin Chen.

Watching the backs of the Zhang family members as they departed, Lin Chen took out those Spatial Bags, examining them one by one, and his face immediately blossomed into a smile. This time, he had earned a windfall.

Suddenly, an evil thought popped into Lin Chen’s mind, and he immediately set his gaze on Yang Minghui.

Since this girl attracts so much attention, if she were to go out and show off, wouldn’t a continuous stream of people trouble Yang Minghui, allowing Lin Chen to take them down one by one? That way, he’d earn a huge profit again.

With more Spirit Stones, to fund the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, Lin Chen might be able to illuminate many Star Maps within the Second Layer Space of the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron.

"Young Master Yang, since you attract such admiration, why don’t you..."

Subsequently, Lin Chen looked at Yang Minghui and voiced his idea.

"Get lost... What do you take me for?!"

When Yang Minghui heard Lin Chen’s words, she was instantly furious.

Lin Chen’s actions made her feel like she was being treated as some sort of brothel girl, specially bringing fat sheep for him to fleece?

"Otherwise, how about splitting half of the treasures with you?"

Seeing Yang Minghui’s anger, Lin Chen, however, was unwilling to give up on this deal, and immediately spoke.

Upon hearing this, Yang Minghui was about to explode.

Seeing Yang Minghui thoroughly erupt, Lin Chen instantly realized that his dream of making a fortune was certainly dashed, and hurriedly turned to leave.

Meanwhile, Mu Tianshan also returned from Yunlong Heavenly Palace with the Jade Token, shocked upon learning about what happened during his absence.

Lin Chen was indeed audacious, daring to offend even the Zhang family.

Most crucially, the battle prowess Lin Chen displayed was terrifyingly powerful, defeating all the Zhang family members.

Even when the Zhang family brought experts, they couldn’t deal with Lin Chen.

With such a trump card, it seems Lin Chen’s background is indeed extraordinary.

Could it be that this guy is the offspring of a Super Power, so he fearlessly faced the Zhang family’s power?

Fortunately, Mu Qinghe didn’t involve himself in this matter; if the Zhang family sought trouble later, it would only be blamed on Lin Chen.

Mu Tianshan looked at Mu Qinghe and once again advised him not to meddle in this matter.

Upon hearing this, Mu Qinghe naturally nodded, understanding his own limitations.

In Mu Tianshan’s eyes, the Zhang family is one of the Eight Great Noble Families of Yunlong City, an entity not to provoke.

And Lin Chen’s identity was too mysterious, not someone they could afford to offend, so the best course of action was not to support either side and watch how things unfold.

Then Mu Tianshan distributed those Assessment Tokens among the crowd.

He also warned everyone not to lose these Assessment Tokens, as that would prevent them from taking part in the assessment, equivalent to losing eligibility.

Subsequently, everyone took their Assessment Tokens and returned to their rooms, almost not venturing out, waiting for the assessment to begin.

Given the matter of the Zhang family, everyone was somewhat frightened, reluctant to provoke further incidents.

Yet Lin Chen didn’t stay in his room and strolled around the inn, looking for any uninterested individuals sending themselves to be fleeced, bullying him, this "weakling" of the Fifth level of the Nirvana Realm, and thus earning another windfall by having their family come to ransom them.

However, Lin Chen wandered around the vicinity of the inn for several days without encountering anyone looking for trouble.

After all, Lin Chen and the matter of the Zhang family had spread widely, and now everyone knew Lin Chen’s prowess, no one dared to provoke him.

Surely, nobody wanted their treasures snatched, clothes torn off, waiting to be ransomed like commodities.

Finding no one seeking trouble with him, Lin Chen couldn’t help but lament.

After all, he wasn’t the type to look for trouble inexplicably, and if these guys didn’t actively provoke him, he wouldn’t actively trouble others.

Although Lin Chen was greedy, he had his own principles.

If only Yang Minghui were willing to come out with him.

With her allure attracting both men and women, undoubtedly, she’d draw many to find trouble with her.

But Yang Minghui was unwilling to cooperate, and Lin Chen couldn’t force her.

Even if Yu Weilian stepped in, it would achieve the same effect.

However, Yu Weilian held greater significance to Lin Chen, and with Yu Weilian’s slightly weaker strength, it might be dangerous and humiliating, so Lin Chen didn’t want Yu Weilian to step in.

...

Within the Zhang family.

After Zhang Chaosong was brought back by the gray-robed elder, he rushed to an inner sect room first.

"Sis, you must stand up for me! That guy went too far, he beat me up so badly that I lost my teeth."

Zhang Chaosong ran to a red-clad woman, immediately voicing his grievances.

"I told you before, this period is the assessment time when Yunlong Heavenly Palace recruits disciples, advising you to behave yourself, and now you’ve suffered."

The red-clad woman glanced at Zhang Chaosong, speaking in a disgruntled tone.

However, despite her words, her heart was somewhat angry about Zhang Chaosong’s experience.

The red-clad woman was always highly protective, and under normal circumstances, regardless of Lin Chen’s identity, she would have rushed over to teach Lin Chen a good lesson.
