Chapter 337: Chapter 357: Why Did You Provoke Them for No Reason? _1

"Beihe Resort?"

Lin Chen looked around and laughed, "This is set up like a high-end business conference..."

Hou Jihu wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile, "Although cultivators are not a secret and everyone knows about them, such gatherings still need to be held away from ordinary people. Holding them in vacation hotels or summer resorts is naturally the most suitable."

As the two were talking at the entrance of the hotel, a black limousine stopped in front of them. The three women they had met on the train got out of the car.

Hou Jihu’s face changed, "The three people you mentioned before, are they them?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Do you know them?"

Hou Jihu whispered, "The oldest one is Elder Zhang Yun of Shenyun Sect, an Innate Grandmaster..."

At this moment, the three women walked towards them. Hou Jihu seemed to worry about being overheard, so he closed his mouth and showed a respectful look on his face.

The middle-aged woman looked at Lin Chen, frowned, and hesitated, "Whose family do you belong to?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "No sect, no school. I am here to gain some experience."

Hou Jihu hurriedly introduced himself, "Elder Zhang, nice to meet you. I am Hou Jihu, responsible for the southwest area of Baiyao Gate."

Zhang Yun nodded coldly without talking. The middle-aged woman quickly helped her into the hotel. Apparently, they didn’t take Hou Jihu seriously.

The cold arrogant girl walked up to Lin Chen, looked him up and down, and sneered, "You came with him?"

Lin Chen nodded honestly, "Yes."

The cold arrogant girl sneered, "Then you should thank me for finding you a good spot. Otherwise, you wouldn’t even qualify to enter here..."

Lin Chen frowned but said nothing.

Lin Chen originally had no affection for Shenyun Sect because of Pei Shanming. Now encountering these three arrogant women, his inner disgust grew, naturally not wanting to deal with them.

The cold arrogant girl sensed Lin Chen’s displeasure, her eyes changed, and she walked toward Lin Chen with a cold face, "Oh, it seems like you’re not convinced..."

"Zhiyan, let’s go."

The voice of the middle-aged woman sounded from inside. The cold arrogant girl stopped in her tracks, pointed at Lin Chen, and said, "If you have the guts, don’t leave."

After leaving the sentence, the cold arrogant girl turned and left. Hou Jihu whispered, "Shenyun Sect is the local tyrant here, they’re used to being domineering. Why did you provoke them? Now you’ve caught their attention. Why don’t you skip this event, and leave while they are not available? Anyway, they don’t know your background..."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "I gave up my seat for them, it’s helping them out. Shouldn’t they thank me? People should always speak reason."

Hou Jihu bitterly laughed, "Cultivators, care about fist. The stronger the fist, the more reasonable."

Lin Chen changed the subject, "Baiyao Gate seems to be doing a big business. Why do I feel like they don’t give you much face?"

Hou Jihu explained, "We’re not the only ones doing the medicinal materials business. We are suppliers. As long as the suppliers are not monopolies, their status will naturally not be as strong as the buyers. Shenyun Sect indeed has a demand for medicinal materials, however, from a supply and demand perspective, they are naturally more powerful."

Lin Chen laughed, "That’s too real."

Hou Jihu laughed, "That’s the reality. I’m no different from a sales manager who goes to the market with material suppliers. All of these are potential customers and must not be offended..."

Hou Jihu changed the topic back to the matter at hand and sincerely suggested, "Seriously, why don’t you leave first and avoid the trouble they might cause you later? Although they won’t kill you, they might humiliate you and beat you up in public, which is completely unnecessary."

Lin Chen smiled, "Three Sects and Four Clans, it’s not Shenyun Sect’s decision here. No problem, since I’m here, I have to gain some insights before leaving..."

Feeling helpless, Hou Jihu warned, "Then you keep your eyes open and avoid them as much as possible. Don’t confront them directly."

"Okay!"

Hou Jihu helped Lin Chen with check-in. Lin Chen and Hou Jihu stayed in a standard room.

After giving Lin Chen some advice, Hou Jihu went to visit clients and busied himself with his business. Lin Chen decided to take a walk by himself.

Though the resort was huge, it has been completely blocked for this event, refusing outside access. Only cultivators were allowed in.

Lin Chen, having no friends to visit and nothing to do, followed the walking path deep into the resort.

As he strolled around, Lin Chen came across a small building against a mountain. Not far from the building was a small waterfall, with clear streams and lush vegetation, creating a very pleasant scenery.

"Ah..."

A baby’s laughter caught Lin Chen’s attention. Lin Chen glanced to the side and was suddenly startled.

At the railing of the building’s terrace, a little girl about three years old was eagerly trying to squeeze her body through the railings. By the time Lin Chen saw her, more than half of her body had already come out!

Lin Chen instinctively started to run towards the bottom of the building.

Just as Lin Chen had reached the bottom, the little girl’s body had completely squeezed through the railing, and she suddenly tilted, falling straight down towards the ground.

"Ah!"
