Chapter 2335 - 2336: The Fang Family

Chapter 2335: Chapter 2336: The Fang Family

Jiang Liang’s intentions were quite obvious. Since Lin Chen was being courted by so many people, and Jiang Liang had already offended Lin Chen earlier, naturally, he couldn’t let him go.

Otherwise, once this young man grew strong in the future, how could Jiang Liang bear the pressure he would bring?

"What do you mean by this?"

Lin Chen squinted his eyes, clearly showing a hint of anger. He originally didn’t want to cause trouble, but trouble just kept coming to him, which made Lin Chen very annoyed. He was merely trying to find the Rejuvenation Grass.

"Second brother, it was our fault to begin with. This way of handling things is unreasonable. Besides, on the way here, apart from one person earlier, no one else was injured. Why be so aggressive?"

At this time, Jiang Wei also frowned and spoke. Jiang Liang’s actions left him very dissatisfied. If it weren’t for him, their relationship would not have reached this point.

"Exactly, and to think you’re the second-in-command of the Jiang family. It seems your tolerance is quite lacking."

Fang Lin laughed, and there was a hint of mockery in his laughter.

However, at the same time, he was also relieved. Relieved that the Jiang family had such a person; otherwise, it would have been difficult for Fang Lin to win over Lin Chen.

"Although no one was harmed, letting him storm in like this and then leave unscathed, what about our Jiang family’s reputation?" Jiang Liang let out a cold laugh. Naturally, he wouldn’t reveal his true feelings.

Jiang Wei frowned. Jiang Liang’s words weren’t without reason. When Jiang Wei came in and saw so many people gathered at the door, the situation inside was naturally spread outside.

If Lin Chen came in with great fanfare and then left without a scratch, it would undoubtedly deal a significant blow to the Jiang family’s reputation.

"So what do you want to do, suppress him with might, bully a junior?"

Fang Lin said, "This matter was your fault to begin with. You didn’t keep your promise, and instead, ordered people to block the door. Aren’t you afraid that this will damage your Jiang family’s reputation if it gets out?"

As Fang Lin’s words came out, Jiang Liang’s face sank. He originally thought Lin Chen’s strength wasn’t high, or even if he had some strength, with the Jiang family’s status in the city, Lin Chen wouldn’t dare to break in easily.

But now he didn’t expect that not only did Lin Chen break in, but under Jiang Liang’s attack, he wasn’t harmed. This kind of strength was enough to prove Lin Chen’s extraordinary nature.

It was precisely because of this that the situation had become a dilemma.

"I think let’s just let it go. It’s better to give my Fang family some face, and it will be easier to explain outside. Otherwise, tearing our faces apart won’t look good."

Fang Lin immediately scanned the two in front of him and said lightly, looking as if he had prepared a script long ago.

"This is fine too."

After a brief consideration, Jiang Wei said. He never intended to go against Lin Chen in the first place.

"Hmph."

After Jiang Wei agreed, Jiang Liang snorted coldly. Seeing Fang Lin desperately trying to protect Lin Chen in front of him, he had no choice.

He couldn’t tear his face apart with Fang Lin now, as that would cause huge damage to both families.

...

After a short while, Lin Chen supported Tang Ming and left the Jiang family with Fang Lin’s guidance.

As for those promised Rejuvenation Grass from the Jiang family, Lin Chen no longer thought about them.

After all, Jiang Wei had already made efforts, but unfortunately, others didn’t acknowledge it, so even if Lin Chen went to them again, it would be useless.

"Brother Lin is not old, but his cultivation is indeed formidable, which is inevitably surprising." Along the way, Fang Lin found something to say, praising Lin Chen’s formidable cultivation.

"Clan Leader, you’re exaggerating." Lin Chen did not show any sign of arrogance, merely responded calmly.

This left Fang Lin a bit astounded. Generally, the more talented ones felt superior, just like Jin Yuwen. Ever since being accepted as a disciple by the Crimson Flame Sect, his original mischievousness had increased significantly. He didn’t expect Lin Chen to treat it as an ordinary matter now.

But in fact, although Lin Chen seemed young, he had lived quite a few years. He had heard all kinds of words and wouldn’t get overly happy over Fang Lin’s remarks.

"Such skills, it seems either from a major family or a sect disciple..." Fang Lin sighed softly, beginning to probe.

For those living in Qingmu City like them, they either bought the most basic cultivation manuals, hoping for a meteoric rise, or sought a sect deep in the mountains to join.

And their few families, having the foundation laid by their ancestors, were better off than others.

But even though they had this foundation, facing sects with numerous disciples, they were still somewhat outmatched, so they naturally envied those from the sects.

"I’m a disciple of the Green Ripple Sect."

Facing Fang Lin’s probing, he responded with a light smile.

"A disciple of the Green Ripple Sect, which stands on equal footing with the Crimson Flame Sect..."

Fang Lin took a sharp breath. To the people of Qingmu City, the Crimson Flame Sect and the Green Ripple Sect were transcendent existences. It’s said that within these two sects, there were beings far surpassing the Spirit Pill realm.

And Fang Lin himself was merely at the Spirit Pill realm, and being advanced in years, it was very difficult to further improve his realm. For now, he could only look on enviously.

Lin Chen looked at Fang Lin with surprise because within the Green Ripple Sect, he only felt chaos inside the sect. Aside from that, Lin Chen didn’t feel anything impressive about the sect.

...

"Little brother Lin must have been startled at the Jiang family, but here, there won’t be any of those troubles. It’s like being at home, feel free to recuperate."

After a hearty meal, Fang Lin arranged accommodations for Lin Chen and Tang Ming. After hearing that Lin Chen was a disciple of the Green Ripple Sect, his attitude became even more enthusiastic.

The Jin family dared to provoke the Fang and Jiang families entirely because of their relationship with the Crimson Flame Sect. Now, if Fang Lin could win over Lin Chen, while he couldn’t say the Green Ripple Sect would favor the Fang family, at least Lin Chen wouldn’t stand idly by in times of crisis.

"It seems this Clan Leader Fang indeed wishes to win over Brother Lin highly."

Tang Ming sat in the room, looking at the room’s surroundings, smacking his lips. His scald wounds, having been inflicted for not long, were merely superficial. Under treatment, they had already improved.

"Perhaps."

Lin Chen neither affirmed nor denied. He only wanted the Rejuvenation Grass for now, as for the other matters, he hadn’t thought much about them.

However, having received so many favors, Lin Chen naturally would give some corresponding compensation. The Spirit Pills in his Storage Ring were many; he could spare some.
