Chapter 340 - Malicious Guests (1/2)

Translator: Flying Lines

Guest Deacon Xiao Fengru of Westbrook Lin

Guest Deacon Chang Ziheng of Floating-cloud Lin

Guest Deacon Shi Zhan of Flying-peak Lin

Deacon Lin Dahong of Northlight Lin

Lin Zhong handed over a note with the names of the people who would come to Heart-cleansing Peak.

That was interesting!

At a glance, Lin Xun saw some subtleties in this list.

Westbrook Lin, Floating-cloud Lin and Flying-peak Lin sent three guest deacons. Although they seemed to have a high position, they were outsiders after all.

Only Northlight Lin sent a real clansman.

Something could be seen from this.

“These three branches sent outsiders. Do they think I’m not qualified enough for them to send important clansmen?”

Lin Xun thought for a while.

Immediately he asked, “What do you think, Granddad Zhong?”

Lin Zhong’s face was solemn, “They are malicious guests.”

Lin Xun said with a flash of coldness in his black eyes, “Granddad Zhong, take Zhu Laosan. If these visitors are making trouble, we can take this opportunity to test Zhu Laosan’s strength.”

Lin Zhong was stunned. He nodded his head and carried out Lin Xun’s order.

…

On the first floor of Heart-cleansing Peak

It was noon.

In the central seat, Lin Xun sat quietly, but he was thinking about something.

Vulture left yesterday with Young Ke, but they had not come back yet. Were they meeting troubles when they recruited people?

“It’s noon, young master.”

Lin Zhong reminded him next.

Lin Xun said with a smile, “Granddad Zhong, they are testing my patience. Of course, they may delay on purpose. Anyway, I am looking forward to their coming this time.”

He opened his lips and said in a plain voice, but there was no happiness in his deep dark eyes.

Anyone could notice that Lin Xun was satirizing!

“By the way, Zhu Laosan, what’s your real name?”

Lin Xun turned to look at Zhu Laosan on the other side.

“I don’t have a name.”

Zhu Laosan replied in a sullen voice. His figure was majestic and big, his hair was scrawled. His eyes were slightly closed. He stood there like a sculpture.

Lin Xun didn’t say much again.

Zhu Laosan was a silent person that looked like a piece of iron. He wouldn’t reply much no matter how many questions were raised to him.

As it a long time passed noon, Lin Xun remained still, but Lin Zhong’s eyebrows were gradually wrinkled.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps coming from outside the hall.

“I’m sorry to keep you waiting because of our delay.”

A voice of apology sounded before someone appeared. Lin Xun looked up and saw a fat middle-aged man coming with well dress.

“Young master, this is Lin Dahong. According to your positions in the family, he is your uncle.”

Lin Zhong explained in a low voice.

Lin Xun didn’t come up or welcome them. He sat still, looked at Lin Dahong and said, “Take a seat please.”

However, Lin Dahong didn’t sit down. He cupped his hands and said with guilty, “I should apologize for my late. We’ve agreed to come together. Who ever thought that they are all held up in their important tasks, so I give up waiting them for more time and come first.”

His attitude seemed sincere, which surprised Lin Xun and made him relaxed a lot. At least Lin Dahong didn’t show any evil intention.

In addition, it was clearly indicated in the note that among the four representatives sent by Lin’s four branches, only Lin Dahong was Lin Family’s member, which made Lin Xun’s attitude towards Northlight Lin change a lot.

“Held up in important matters? I think they take this opportunity to mess up with me. ”

Lin Xun said quietly.

Lin Dahong just smiled and didn’t answer.

“Please take a seat.”

Lin Xun took a deep look at Lin Dahong and invited him to take a seat again.

“Thank you very much,” Lin Dahong said with a smile

He chose a seat at will and sat down. Then he looked at Lin Xun who was sitting in the central seat.

“Young master, do you want to start meeting?”

Lin Zhong asked in a low voice.

“Let’s wait for a moment.”

Lin Xun waved his hand and said, “Wouldn’t it be too boring without the representatives of other three branches of Lin Family?”

Lin Dahong’s eyes narrowed as if he was thinking.
