Chapter 2951: Chapter 2971: Are you putting on a two-person act here?

"It was I."

Lin Chen’s gaze was cold as he stared at Zhao Hanguang, "Seeing that I’m not dead yet, it must be quite a surprise for you, isn’t it?"

At this point, any excuse was meaningless. Zhao Hanguang asked, "Where are my second brother and Xiao Wu?"

Behind Lin Chen, two figures floated up, exactly those of Zhao family members blasted beyond recognition by the Immortal Destruction Bomb, covered in blood.

Zhao Hanguang’s heart sank completely into the abyss, as his last bit of fantasy utterly shattered.

With a clasped fist, Zhao Hanguang said, "Friend Lin, I admit that I underestimated your strength. My Zhao family concedes in this matter. Please state your terms, and whatever my Zhao family possesses, I will comply with, but I only ask you to release my second brother and Xiao Wu."

Lin Chen burst out laughing, "Is this the way your illustrious and powerful families operate? To kill at will and negotiate when failed; to retreat unscathed. Would all the good in the world not end up in your hands?"

Zhao Hanguang quite straightforwardly said, "Every grievance has its source, every debt its debtor. Indeed, it was my Zhao family who took action, but we have neither grudges nor grievances with Friend Lin. Ultimately, it was all orchestrated by Zhou Daocang of the Zhou family."

"Although Friend Lin has not been in the Crimson Immortal Domain for long, you should be aware of the Immortal God Stele and should know about the foundation of the Zhou family. They are absolutely not someone our Zhao family can provoke. When they ask us to do something, we can only agree, otherwise, we would offend them and become enemies."

"Our Zhao family is merely a stick in Zhou Daocang’s hand. Now that the stick is broken, even if Friend Lin wishes to chop and burn this stick, without the Zhao family, as long as the Zhou family exists, there will be the Wang, Li, and Chen families to continue serving them, and nothing will change. It might be better if Friend Lin, as a Great One, shows mercy. My Zhao family is willing to pay a price to atone for our crime."

Upon hearing this, all Zhao family disciples were completely stunned.

The Zhao family, under orders from the Zhou family disciples, had attempted to assassinate Lin Chen, the attack failed, and now the other party had captured people and arrived to accuse them?

Looking at the Great Demons suppressing the four directions, the Zhao Family Disciples suddenly started to panic.

They had always taken pride in being Zhao Family Disciples; even if they didn’t behave oppressively when abroad, they still always felt superior. But now, they suddenly realized that the Zhao family was perhaps not as powerful as they had imagined.

The always imperious and respected Ancestor Zhao bowed and humbly pleaded for forgiveness from a young man?

A young man suddenly leapt forward, shouting loudly, "Ancestor, why beg for mercy from him? He is a soldier of the War God Mansion. Uncle Tie, Uncle Feng, and Uncle Shan Hua all hold posts there, and their positions are not lower than his. How dare he commit such insubordination, looking down on our Zhao family?"

After a pause, the young man looked up at Lin Chen and said, "Our Zhao family can concede, but you needn’t be so aggressive. Even though you have many Great Demons at your command, you mustn’t forget your place. Otherwise, you will suffer once you return!"

Lin Chen’s gaze landed on the young man, his tone calm, "These three persons you mentioned, I do not know what positions they hold. Why don’t you enlighten me?"

The young man stood tall, snorting coldly, "My Uncle Tie serves as the Team leader in the Second Corps, commanding tens of thousands of soldiers. Uncle Feng is the Team leader in the Fourth Legion, a leader of a sect. My Uncle Shan Hua holds the post of Team leader in the Spirit Ascension Hall, that is a senior executive part of the core division, holding high authority!"

Lin Chen took a breath, his tone growing colder, "Zhao Shanhua, the Team leader in the Spirit Ascension Hall, right?"

The young man spoke loudly, "Yes! If you want to mess with our Zhao family, you better weigh the consequences. Moreover, like the ancestor said, if we attacked you, it wasn’t because we have grievances against you, it was the Zhou family who wants you. If you are capable, why don’t you confront the Zhou family? Why show off your power here?"

Hearing this, Zhao Hanguang turned and shouted, "Shut up!"

Stopping the young man’s speech, Zhao Hanguang once again clasped his fist, an apologetic expression on his face, "The younger generation speaks nonsense, I hope Friend Lin, as a Great One, can be generous and not take it to heart ..."

Lin Chen laughed.

Are you putting on a performance here?

"You old man, finding these words hard to say, had the junior speak on your behalf. Only after his whole spiel did you feign a scolding and asked me to be more understanding. But in reality, you were telling me that the Zhao family has backers in the War God Mansion, and if anyone wants to mess with us, they’d better think twice!"

Even if you have dozens of Great Demons at your disposal, here, you are merely a team leader.

You cannot afford to provoke anyone!

Even if you dare provoke us, what about the Zhou Family?

You want revenge, go find the Zhou Family, why show off what you can do to me?

Zhao Hanguang, looking at Lin Chen, suddenly had an uneasy feeling.

This guy wouldn’t be foolish enough to ignore my words, would he?

Lin Chen looked at Zhao Hanguang and then at the speaking young man, with a light laugh said, "You got one thing wrong..."

Zhao Hanguang’s heart sank, "What is it?"

Lin Chen replied, "I am not only devoid of generosity, but I am also someone who bears grudges and am petty to the core!"

Lin Chen turned his head, looked at the young man speaking, and said calmly, "You’re quite arrogant with your words. Be more modest in your next life!"

The young man’s expression suddenly changed, and he tried to step back, but before he moved, intense firelight suddenly burst forth in front of him.

The searing True Sun Fire instantly enveloped him. With the young man’s strength not even matching Da Luo, how could he withstand the True Sun Fire released by Lin Chen?

No sooner had the True Sun Fire arisen than his whole body melted like butter in flames, immediately turning into Flying Ashes.

This scene unfolded in front of all the Zhao family members, and for a moment, everyone was struck with horror. Looking at the smiling young man in front of them, it was as if they were looking at a demon crawling out of Hell.

Zhao Hanguang had not expected Lin Chen to strike so suddenly, nor had he anticipated Lin Chen doing nothing but glancing at that disciple, enveloping him in True Sun Fire in an instant, leaving no chance for rescue.

Death came too swiftly, who could have saved him?

Zhao Hanguang, with a grimace of anger, gritted his teeth, "Friend Lin, you captured Pingyang, killed Lao Qi, and seriously injured second brother and Xiao Wu. What more do you want? Just lay it all out now."

Lin Chen looked at Zhao Hanguang’s angered face, and with a look of surprise, said, "My, are you angry? It was you who tried to kill me again and again. I haven’t done anything yet, and here you are, looking all wronged as if I’ve crossed a line..."

Zhao Hanguang gritted his teeth, this appearance was intentional, to let the other side feel the heavy price paid, maybe giving a way out for him to step down. However, from Lin Chen’s mocking words, it was clear he not only saw through his actions but also didn’t care at all.

Zhao Hanguang bowed his head and said with palms together, "The Zhao family has nothing more to say, whatever you want, Friend Lin, please state your terms; there is nothing the Zhao family would not agree to!"

Lin Chen’s eyes slightly narrowed, "I have no terms. I came here only to do one thing."

Zhao Hanguang looked up sharply, "What is it?"

Lin Chen coldly said, "An eye for an eye, blood for blood!"
