Chapter 299 - As Wordless as Hibernating Cicadas (1/2)
Proofread by Claire.KK
Rui Qing yelled angrily, so the dignified middle-aged man locked his eyes on Lin Xun instantly.
Lin Xun was just a nice and harmless looking young man at the first glance. But when the middle-aged man found the deep and indifferent black eyes of Lin Xun, a palpitation inspired in his heart.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced around and asked innocently, “It seems that there was a fierce battle here just now?”
Lin Xun laughed in his heart, knowing that this middle-aged man was an experienced “fox” and he must have noticed something different.
“Yes.”
Lin Xun nodded his head.
“Father, don’t waste talking to him, kill him directly!” Rui Qing cried beside.
Lin Xun said with a smile, “My friend, if I didn’t throw you out of the Maple Tower just now, how can you still live until now?”
Lin Xun glimpsed at the ruined restaurant in the distance with a hint when he asked Rui Qing.
Rui Qing shouted angrily, “What the hell you mean? Do I need your help? ”
As he said, he rushed up and tried to slap Lin Xun’s face. The company from his father let him act without any scruples.
But as soon as Rui Qing took action, his father frowned and slapped Rui Qing first, which made Rui Qing stagger, squat on the ground, and scream while covering his face.
“Father…what…what are you doing?”
Rui Qing didn’t believe he was slapped by his father. The servant who came with him all looked stunned and confused.
But the dignified middle-aged man didn’t care Rui Qing’s question. He cupped his hand and bowed to Lin Xun, saying gratefully, “Thank you for ignoring the fault my son have made and kindly helped him out of danger. If I don’t come here in person, I will be almost blinded by my son’s words and cause further misunderstanding.”
“No thanks. It’s just a piece of cake.”
Lin Xun replied casually.
“Father, do you believe this guy’s story?”
Rui Qing yelled.
Clap!
The middle-aged man slapped Rui Qing again, scolding sharply, “Stupid thing, how can you keep your life this time if this Childe didn’t help you?”
“I…”
Rui Qing was stunned and wanted to cry helplessly. How could this guy save his life? By throwing him out of the restaurant?!
Could this be called a help, too?
“Shut up!”
The middle-aged man goggled, which made Rui Qing tremble all over and shut up immediately.
The middle-aged man was really annoyed by his stupid son. Just by looking at the ruined restaurant, he knew that Rui Qing couldn’t survive if he was still staying in it.
Nothing was more important than Rui Qing’s safety even if he was beaten violently and thrown out of the window shamefully before.
“I apologize on behalf of my son. He grows up in Green Willow Town like a frog at the bottom of the well, having a limited outlook. He is so arrogant to offend you. I hope you can forgive his manner.”
The middle-aged man’s attitude was sincere, which made Lin Xun feel amazed about the difference between father and son. The father was as smart as a cunning fox, while the son was as stupid as an idiot. The difference between them was too big.
“My young friend, can I invite you to my humble home and have a banquet to show my gratitude?”
The middle-aged issued an invitation.
At a glance, he could see through that Lin Xun was not an ordinary person although he was dressed simple. Lin Xun’s vibe was extremely unique in his eyes.
“No, thanks. But I’d like to ask you to do me a little favor.”
Lin Xun exclaimed.
The middle-aged was confused by Lin Xun’s words at first but he immediately agreed “What can I do for you?”
“There are 51 dead bodies in the nearby area including the ruins. Please send your subordinates to help me to collect the items they carried.”
Lin Xun said with a smile.
The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes, waved his hand and ordered those subordinates behind him. Then he looked at Lin Xun and whispered with surprise, “My young friend, may I know the story that… that you killed them all?”
Lin Xun smiled without explaining. He didn’t deny what he had done.
Although Lin Xun said nothing, the answer was obviously showed by his expression, which made the dignified middle-aged man take a deep breath out of shock. Through his observation just now, it could be judged that small battle couldn’t destroy the Maple Tower like this.
It proved that the opponents of this young man must be extremely powerful. They must have the cultivation of Human-gang realm at least!
“You’re amazing.”
He did not ask the cause and effect of the battle because he was unwilling to be involved in the storm.
Before long, a group of subordinates returned with a variety of spiritual tools, short crossbows and spiritual bows and piled them up into a hill.
With a glance, the middle-aged man was in a trance for a moment. The Standardized Supreme Crossbow, the Armor Destruction Crossbow, the Flesh Broken Crossbow…
