Chapter 412: Chapter 432: Let’s Settle Our Grudges Once and for All _1

"Tangtang."

"Brother, what’s up?"

"Nothing much, just wanted to ask if anyone from Liu He’s family has come to trouble you?"

"No, they probably know they’re in the wrong and are too embarrassed to cause trouble. After all, their Liu family is powerful, but my Feng family isn’t weak either."

"Alright, if anyone tries to mess with you, call me immediately or give them my number and let them deal with me directly."

"Don’t worry about me, I’ll be fine!"

Lin Chen hung up the phone, his expression slightly puzzled.

Liu He should have been in agonizing pain last night, but there was no reaction from the Liu family. That’s not normal.

Considering the firm tone of Feng Tangtang’s words earlier, Lin Chen suddenly realized something.

The Feng family must have stepped in.

Feng Tangtang, out of concern for Lin Chen, might have told her uncle about the situation, and her uncle then intervened, which is why there had been no movement from the Liu family so far.

Thinking about this, Lin Chen’s mood became somewhat mixed.

Since childhood, Lin Chen had always dealt with everything himself and faced all the dangers head-on. But now, he was being protected by someone else?

Someone had quietly protected him without even giving a single warning.

Was this because they didn’t want to put more pressure on him?

Had Lin Chen’s uncle paid any price while negotiating with the Liu family to protect him?

The thought of this made Lin Chen feel uneasy.

"Lin Chen, come out and have some fruit!"

Lin Chen responded and went to the garden, where Feng Yazhen was sitting in a chair with her legs casually propped up, poking at the fruit on a plate beside her with a toothpick.

"Try it, it’s sweet."

Lin Chen sat down in the chair next to her, picked up a toothpick, and started eating the fruit as well. As he ate, he became lost in thought.

"What are you thinking about so seriously? Are you thinking about pretty women?"

Feng Yazhen waved her hand in front of Lin Chen’s face, waking him from his reverie.

Returning to his senses, Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Aunt, I heard there are many wealthy families in Xijing. Can you tell me about some of the most powerful ones?"

Feng Yazhen stared at Lin Chen and laughed, "Why do you want to know about that?"

Lin Chen replied, "If I’m going to be in Xijing, I need to know who I can mess with and who I can’t, right?"

Feng Yazhen popped a grape into her mouth and laughed, "The Feng family isn’t the strongest in Xijing, but at least we have three Innate Grandmasters supporting us. As long as we’re in the right, we don’t need to fear anyone. So, don’t worry, stand tall and fight whoever bothers you. If you can’t defeat them, Auntie will help you."

Lin Chen was slightly surprised, as the Feng family actually had three Innate Grandmasters. This strength was indeed quite formidable, no wonder they were considered one of Xijing’s wealthy families.

However, even though the Feng family had three Innate Grandmasters, they were all surnamed Feng, not Lin. Although he had half the family’s bloodline, as a married-out daughter, he was considered an outsider by the entire Feng family.

He couldn’t rely on them if he got into any major trouble.

As Feng Yazhen swallowed the grape, she continued, "There are indeed many wealthy families in Xijing, but the truly prominent ones have a family with an Innate Grandmaster at the helm. By that count, there are roughly Four Sects and Twelve Surnames..."

Lin Chen laughed, "There are quite a few, it’s hard to remember them all."

Feng Yazhen smiled, "You don’t need to. If you see someone claiming to be from a Xijing family, it means they’re one of the Twelve Surnames. Only those twelve families dare to call themselves a ’Xijing Family’. For example, we introduce ourselves as the West Capital Feng family. As for the four sects, they are the Shuiyun Sect, Five Dragon Sect, Tianwu Sect, and Baling Sect. Their headquarters are all in the mountains, so you’re less likely to encounter them."

Lin Chen nodded, "Understood."

At that moment, Lin Chen’s phone suddenly rang. It was an unfamiliar number.

Lin Chen glanced at Feng Yazhen hesitated for a moment and then directly answered the call.

"Hello?"

"Lin Chen, it’s Wang Jianbo!"

Lin Chen’s eyes became slightly cold. This guy had actually taken the initiative to contact him?

"Mhm, what’s up?"

Wang Jianbo’s voice was icy, "I know you want to deal with me. Since you’ve come to Xijing, it’s time for us to settle our grudges properly."

Lin Chen’s voice was calm, "Alright, go ahead."

"Tonight at 8 pm, at Warehouse No. 8 at Xijiao Wharf, we’ll put an end to our feuds. Do you dare to come?"

Lin Chen laughed, "Alright."

Wang Jianbo said solemnly, "See you at 8!"

Lin Chen hung up the phone, and with a calm expression, picked up a toothpick and stuffed a piece of fruit into his mouth.

Feng Yazhen looked into the distance, holding a grape in her hand, and asked casually, "Who was that?"

Lin Chen smiled slightly, "A friend who’s also in Xijing. He invited me to meet up tonight."

"Oh."

Feng Yazhen replied with a single word, and the corner of her mouth imperceptibly twitched.

A friend?

Do you think I’m deaf?
