Chapter 2901: Chapter 2921: This scene looks familiar, again?

Xiong Yaxiong chimed in, "Yes, just saying there’s nothing left, without any prior explanation either. I hope everything goes smoothly today; otherwise, it’ll be trouble again."

Lin Chen just smiled and stayed quiet.

As the Sect Master, it was his responsibility to take charge when others couldn’t handle things. If things went smoothly, Lin Chen was not keen on stepping in.

He didn’t care about his authority as Sect Master being usurped or anything like that. What he needed was merely the title, not relying on these people to help him. After all, with the enemies he entices, if he indeed needed help, it certainly wouldn’t be from them.

And as for Deputy Sect Master Chen Shuihe?

Lin Chen would love for him to take over the specific duties; that way, he could slack off, couldn’t he?

If he had to be consulted about everything, wouldn’t his head explode?

While everyone was idly chatting and waiting, a group of men in luxurious attire walked into the entrance, moving easily, chatting and laughing, seemingly oblivious to everyone else around them.

Lin Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly; this scene seemed all too familiar.

Sure enough, once these men entered, they ignored the queueing people and headed straight to the scene manager who was distributing supplies.

"Manager Li, you’re busy, I see."

The manager of the scene, Manager Li, turned around, a smile suddenly appearing on his face, "Young Master Chen, Young Master Zhao, what brings you both here together."

The leading man looked back at the queued line and chuckled, "Didn’t I give you the materials collection form earlier? I figured it was about time, so I came to pick it up."

"Form?"

Manager Li was stunned for a moment, then, catching the leading man’s smiling gaze, seemed to remember, slapping his forehead, "Ah, right! I completely forgot with all the rushing around, my apologies..."

Everyone queuing witnessed this scene, and their expressions immediately changed.

Forgot?

You’re fooling around with ghosts?

These guys are clearly here to cut in line, and they hadn’t really submitted any forms in advance; they just covered it up with slick talk and sprang into action.

That form you’re talking about is probably still in your pocket!

As soon as you let them through that door, that form will be placed in your hand, and it will become a ’previously submitted form’. Who doesn’t understand this trick?

And when you opened the door, we all were queuing up here; where were the other queuers?

Do you think we’re three-year-olds you can easily deceive?

Although everyone was angry, after exchanging looks, no one dared to step forward.

Manager Li was in charge of logistics, not a director but still, it wasn’t a position anyone could occupy, and those who let him address them as "Young Master Chen" and "Young Master Zhao" were clearly not ordinary people.

The clever ones connected the dots from those two surnames, speculating many possibilities, realizing the figures they quickly thought of weren’t people they could afford to provoke.

Shooting the messenger is a principle everyone understands; in such situations, whoever stepped out would inevitably be targeted.

Seeing that Manager Li was about to lead the men inside, Lin Chen sighed; why did he always encounter such messes?

Lin Chen glanced at the queue; there weren’t many people left in front of Hu Yunlai, but if several people entered together and each took a large number of supplies, whether Hu Yunlai would still get his share was uncertain.

Maybe he would, maybe he wouldn’t.

Lin Chen didn’t want to gamble.

Since he came today, as long as it was by the rules, he was determined to retrieve what Haoran Sect deserved.

As for offending people?

If he offended someone, so be it. After all, he was used to offending people along the way.

Since he had already offended the Zhou Family, he wasn’t afraid of offending a few more people.

Although such actions indeed seemed a bit stubborn, Lin Chen felt at least comfortable in doing so.

Wasn’t it the same situation yesterday?

He was just irritated!

Doing this felt satisfying!

Actually, he could have just found Manager Li privately, shown him the identity appointed personally by the Hall Master, and unless the manager was missing a few brain cells, he would most likely arrange everything directly. Yet, Lin Chen didn’t want to do that.

If he acted the same, what difference would there be between him and Zhou Daocang?

Lin Chen wasn’t stubborn; at this moment, everyone present aimed to combat the Demon Race, meaning they were colleagues and partners. Often, those queueing for supplies were the ones truly in need, whereas the line-cutters usually had strong backgrounds and weren’t as deprived of supplies.

Suppressing colleagues who needed supplies the most was something Lin Chen couldn’t do.

In such circumstances, he was willing to follow the rules.

Those who didn’t follow the rules irritated and angered him!

Seeing that everyone was enraged but no one dared to speak up, he reluctantly threw away a blade of grass from his hand and stood up.

"Wait."
