siblings suddenly changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying exclaimed in shock: “You killed Chu Tianyu’s personal bodyguard?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen nodded: “He tried to kill me back then, but unfortunately he underestimated my strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since that was the case, I naturally wouldn’t show any mercy to him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Lin said in surprise: “The Chu Family didn’t retaliate afterward?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen said with a laugh: “Barefoot people aren’t afraid of those wearing shoes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Chu Family has a massive enterprise, while I’m just one person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they aren’t certain they can kill me, it wouldn’t be wise to act rashly and provoke my revenge, which they might not be able to bear.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the heir of the Zuo Family, Zuo Lin naturally had a deep understanding of the balance of power and quickly grasped the key point: “Are you a Gang Qi Realm Master?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen nodded: “Yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A shocked expression appeared on Zuo Lin’s face, while Zuo Yingying’s mouth hung open slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both of them were cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Zuo Yingying was less powerful, they both knew very well what it meant for a 27 or 28-year-old to be a young Grandmaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Genius!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An absolute genius!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a person, if not completely suppressed with absolute certainty, would bring unbearable consequences as retaliation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention the formidable strength of a Grandmaster, who killed as casually as eating a meal; even if they didn’t hold a grudge against him now, what could anyone do when he became even more powerful in ten or twenty years and got promoted to a Great Grandmaster?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wiping out a family entirely wouldn’t be impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was precisely because of such concerns that the Chu Family hadn’t taken any action against Lin Chen so far.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This, of course, didn’t mean that the Chu Family had compromised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were just waiting for a one-shot kill opportunity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, in the Linhai territory, only the Zhu Family, ranked first among the Eight Great Families, had a surviving Great Grandmaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other seven great families had varying numbers of Grandmasters, but none had a Great Grandmaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Lin sighed: “No wonder Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin is unafraid of the Chu Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even they have to tread carefully in the face of a Grandmaster’s might.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen said with a laugh: “They’re just hesitating to act because they’re looking for opportunities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they really find one, they’ll strike me with a thunderbolt.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Lin nodded: “Which sect does Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin belong to?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen answered frankly: “I don’t have a sect, only a master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps you’ve heard of him, Xue Kuangren.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Lin looked surprised and then laughed: “Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin’s boldness is indeed very similar to Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seems the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dinner, Lin Chen left without mentioning a word about cooperation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Lin watched Lin Chen’s car disappear, then turned to remind Zuo Yingying: “Yingying, Lin Chen is like an extremely sharp sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it doesn’t hurt others, it will hurt itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His battle with the Chu Family is inevitable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I suggest you maintain your distance from Lin Chen to avoid getting too deeply involved.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying pouted: “Lin Chen isn’t afraid of anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why are you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You rejected him, and he didn’t bring up the matter again afterward.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Lin shook his head: “The Zuo Family has no feud or interest in the Chu Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s better not to interfere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’ll just watch the situation unfold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Judging by his confident demeanor, maybe he has already found a reliable helper.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying asked curiously: “Are you guessing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Lin shook his head: “He mentioned it, but only briefly, without any intention of lobbying the Zuo Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I feel that he doesn’t care much about the Zuo Family’s involvement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s probably just because of you that he asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is like poking a stick at a tree regardless of whether there are dates on it or not, just in case there’s an accidental harvest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying thought for a moment: “Helper?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You mean the Wei Family?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Lin smiled: “To deal with the Chu Family, Lin Chen must join forces with the Wei Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, didn’t he help Xu Bin treat his illness?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I think treating the illness was just a pretext, and the real goal was to ally with the Xu Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Xu Family and the Chu Family have a lot of business competition, and since he saved Leng Yucheng’s life, there’s a high probability that the Leng Family will also join the Wei Family and Xu Family…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying’s eyes widened: “The Xu, Wei, and Leng Families joining hands against the Chu Family?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Lin whispered: “It’s just a guess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this is definitely the direction Lin Chen will take in forming an alliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he’s sworn not to rest until the Chu Family is defeated, he must find a way to completely bring down the Chu Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If a war breaks out, it won’t be a small-scale battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Chu Family’s business isn’t related to the Zuo Family, and even if we participated, there wouldn’t be much profit to gain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s not worth it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying’s eyes sparkled: “Lin Chen is incredible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In such a short amount of time, he’s allied with almost half of the Eight Great Families, hasn’t he?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Lin smiled: “Such a young Grandmaster has boundless potential, and he’s also a divine doctor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the perspective of forming relationships, he’s absolutely worth getting to know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, since he’s able to form alliances, he must have a matching cooperative force in his hand, not relying solely on his own strength.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lin Chen’s master, Xue Kuangren, is wild and has offended many sects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But, at the same time, he’s also made many friends who are like true brothers to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If something really happened and Xue Kuangren called, I estimate a group of Grandmasters would show up to help and fight.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Although Lin Chen appears to be alone, he’s not actually fighting on his own.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying said with a smile: “Is this the advantage of having a strong backing?”\u003C\u002Fp>",1027,"2026-06-06T01:51:32.142Z",1,"novelbin.me","b76fa6d9cd513d64cc506698c41803fb247ff98185c71cdd26c901cb6eb83b36","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-254","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-252",4071,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Furban-peerless-expert-cover.jpg"]
