Chapter 542: Chapter 562: The Invitation to the Nine States Conference, Is It So Easygoing? _1

"I wondered why you didn’t ask anything and just refused straight away. So that’s what you were thinking."

Lin Chen suddenly realized and laughed, "You take it too seriously. You guys helped me with that situation before, it’s not like I have to knowingly go and die at someone else’s doorstep to be considered helpful. Just help as much as you can, having the heart is enough."

After a pause, Lin Chen added, "If I were to drag you guys into my personal grudges and someone got hurt or died because of it, I would be uneasy my whole life."

Feng Yazhen laughed, "I know your character, and I know you mean what you say. But they also genuinely don’t want to cause trouble for you, especially since you still have to deal with Guo Tang."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Aunt, as your hidden expert, won’t you help him too?"

Feng Yazhen laughed, "Of course, he’s my nephew, I won’t just stand by. I heard that the family is arranging some sort of contest to determine the final winner. I’m thinking of waiting until that’s settled before I make a move, otherwise, the situation might change if I intervene early."

Lin Chen nodded, "Alright, once it’s settled, let me know, and I’ll see if I can help."

Feng Yazhen, who knew Lin Chen’s character best among the Feng family, understood his mentality of "I don’t want to drag you into my problems, but I’m willing to help you at my own risk" and agreed.

"Alright."

Feng Yazhen knew Lin Chen’s strength; with him and Chu Jiaxue meeting up, not counting Zhang Yun who is afraid of her identity being exposed, and adding themselves, Zhou Yitian, and Lin Da, there would be a total of five Innate experts. This would completely change the views of the two Feng family Ancestral Masters.

She would undoubtedly support Feng Hang, and with Lin Chen being somewhat part of the Feng family, naturally, he would have the upper hand.

As for the Han family members, they still bear the Han name, and the two Ancestral Masters are not senile enough to not see the difference between insiders and outsiders.

With this calculation, there should be no problem.

Lin Chen’s phone suddenly rang. He glanced at it, and it was an unfamiliar call.

Lin Chen tensed up instantly.

Guo Tang?

Lin Chen showed the screen to Feng Yazhen and then answered the call, "Hello?"

"May I speak to Mr. Lin Chen, please?"

The gentle and polite female voice made Lin Chen freeze for a moment, and his tense spirit relaxed quickly. His tone softened, "Speaking."

"Hello, I am a staff member of the Jiuzhou Association office. May I know if you have an invitation token for the Jiuzhou Association?"

Jiuzhou Association?

Lin Chen frowned and turned on the speaker, "Yes, it’s from the West Capital Liu Family."

"Mr. Lin, we sincerely invite you to attend our annual forum event held in Bin Ya City on the 15th. Are you available?"

Lin Chen asked doubtfully, "This invitation token wasn’t originally given to me by you guys. Can I still go? Can I refuse?"

The woman on the other side of the phone spoke gently and sweetly with a typical customer service tone, "Since the West Capital Liu Family has given the invitation token to Mr. Lin, it’s equivalent to voluntarily giving up their chance to participate in the forum. As Mr. Lin has reached the Innate level and has the invitation token, he is naturally allowed to attend. Of course, Mr. Lin, you also have the right to refuse, but considering the grand event, it is recommended that Mr. Lin join and meet representatives from various regions of the Nine Provinces, exchange ideas and maybe gain unexpected benefits."

"Even if Mr. Lin is not interested in becoming a Jiuzhou Association reserve member, considering the cold weather now in Xijing, Bin Ya has sunshine and pleasant scenery, with suitable temperatures, Mr. Lin could treat it as a vacation. You can bring your family along, and aside from not being able to attend the meeting officially, we will cater for them throughout the event. Mr. Lin, you might have a pleasant holiday here."

Lin Chen’s expression was a bit strange. The Jiuzhou Association, shouldn’t they have a high status?

Shouldn’t their tone be a bit cold, like "We’re giving you a chance to come, hurry up or we’ll kill you if you don’t give us face"?

Why does it sound like a telemarketing sales pitch? Are you really the Jiuzhou Association, the organization founded by Ji Yusheng, the number one in the Nine Provinces?

Not just Lin Chen, even Feng Yazhen’s expression was weird, but she still nodded to Lin Chen, signaling him to agree.

Lin Chen calculated the time, there were only a few days left, and Guo Tang was still nowhere to be found. Going to the event wouldn’t waste much time either.

"Alright, I will come."

The woman’s voice was enthusiastic, "Great, please give me your identity information so I can book your flight tickets..."

Lin Chen refused, "No need, just tell me the time and place, and I’ll go there myself."

"Alright, the forum will take place at 9 am on the 15th at Qingli Island. You can check into the Blue Sky Hotel in Bin Ya City before the 14th, and we will go to the island together on the 15th. If you have any questions, feel free to call this number for information."

Lin Chen memorized the details, "Alright!"

After hanging up, Lin Chen looked at Feng Yazhen, "I don’t know anyone there, Aunt, why do you want me to go?"
