Chapter 1416 Settling the Score

What happened?

Wang Tianxing looked over with a frown.

Huangfu Shao Yu put down his cup, a hint of displeasure flaring in his eyes.

Many people had directed their attention to the hall entrance.

And there they saw Lin Xun.

Outside the great hall was a big snowfall, and the drifting scarlet flowers gleamed eerily under the beautiful lights.

A figure dressed in a thin white coat stood there, blocking Wang Ziluan’s path. Or rather, Wang Ziluan was blocking his path.

Who is this person?

Many people were puzzled and somewhat startled.

This was the Wang Family’s residence, and the Welcome Hall was the most important place. Normal young people were not qualified to come here.

The originally lively atmosphere froze in a brief silence.

“Huh?!” Liu Hong was surprised as he recognized Lin Xun. “Wasn’t this kid expelled? How did he sneak back in?”

A person asked, “Do you know him, City Lord?”

Liu Hong shook his head and snorted, “How would I know a junior who doesn’t have an invitation and isn’t qualified to enter the Wang Family’s mansion? I only remember him being chased away by the guards when I arrived here. I never thought that he would come back in.”

Hearing this, the people in the hall laughed mockingly.

They were the high-and-mighty big shots in the city, so of course they couldn’t possibly know that the young man in front of them was the young master of the Lin Clan that they had ridiculed for many years.

Wang Tianxing’s face darkened, his heart in rage as he said, “Where are the guards? Are they all dead, letting just anyone in now?”

Wang Ziluan was jolted up. That’s right. Where are the guards? Why are they all gone?

“All dead, all dead...” Xiaocao’s face was stark pale as she pointed at Lin Xun, trembling. “All killed by him, killed by him!”

What!?

Everyone’s pupils constricted.

Only Wang Ziluan sneered like she had heard someone funny. “That’s impossible, he’s just a...”

Before she could say ‘fool,’ she felt her breath being snuffed as a tsunami of force swept over.

Bang!

The force sent Wang Ziluan flying backward into the hall, smashing into a slew of tables. Tea, wine, soups, and exquisite delicacies were splashed all over her.

This raised a clamor in the crowd.

The expressions of Wang Tianxing and Huangfu Shao Yu were especially gloomy.

Lin Xun, however, seemed oblivious to it all as he paced into the hall.

“Insolent! Who gives you the guts to attack people in the Wang Residence?! Get the hell out of here!” A big shot of the Wang Clan charged out like a furious lion and blasted a punch at Lin Xun, creating a terrifying flood of qi.

“Well done!”

Many people’s eyes lit up.

The strike was full of power and perfectly executed. The dao power in it was definitely at the very peak of the Heaven Ascension stage!

However, the Wang Clan’s big shot was still a foot away from Lin Xun when the power of his punch fizzled out, while his fist directly exploded to pieces with a loud noise.

And then, he dropped down so hard that the ground was caved in under his knees. The man couldn’t hold back a painful scream.

The expressions of the crowd immediately changed.

The Wang Clan’s big shot might not be a top-class expert in the city, but his power was definitely not to be looked down upon. And yet, he was beaten to his knees!

Furthermore, the white-clothed youth hadn’t even made a move!

Many people instantly realized that something was wrong, and that the newcomer came with ill intentions. This white-clothed youth was obviously a well-concealed expert.

Who exactly is he? What did he come here for?

Liu Hong’s face sank as he reprimanded, “Friend, you have gone too far. This is the Wang Clan, not a place where you can cause a ruckus. You...”

Bang!

He was air-slapped by Lin Xun and sent flying before he could finish his words.

Even though Liu Hong was the deputy city lord with great influence, he himself was only a Cyclic Derivation stage cultivator.

The slap turned him into a blurry wheel as he spun in the air for over ten circles before falling on the ground with a heavy thud. Half of his face was swollen, and his skull shattered. His head was covered in blood.

“How dare you act like this is your house?! Everyone, take down this maniac!” Wang Tianxing was so angry that his face turned red. He pointed at Lin Xun, his eyes almost popping out in rage.

All the Wang Clan’s big shots and escorts around knew that the situation was off. However, they had no choice but to take the order and charge forward.

But how could they possibly be Lin Xun’s opponents?

Before they could even get close to him, his aura pressed them down on their knees one after another. As their kneecaps exploded to bits, screams of misery echoed.

Seeing this, the others’ faces twisted, and chills ran through their hearts. Even a fool would have realized by now that the white-clothed youth in front of them was a powerful and cruel character!

Wang Tianxing’s eyelids twitched, and a sense of horror took over him as he was finally aware of the situation.

Taking a deep breath, he said, “Friend, dare I ask who you are? Please tell me if my clan has offended you somehow.”

“Father! He...he is Lin Xun!” shouted Wang Ziluan, whose face was stained with soup.

Lin Xun?

Everyone was stunned. And when they all recalled this name, they just couldn’t believe their ears.

That...fool who was born alongside the luck of heaven and earth?

How can it be?

Even Wang Tianxing was flabbergasted. That fool from the Lin Clan? In the past twenty years, who doesn’t know what a joke he is? How can this powerful young man be that fool?

An old man couldn’t help it and asked, “Are...are you really Lin Xun? Lin Xiaorong’s son?”

Bang!

As soon as his questions rang out, the old man was thrown face-first on the ground by a slap, unable to get back up.

“My father’s name is not something you can call out,” said Lin Xun nonchalantly, his eyes emotionless.

The crowd could finally confirm that this young man was really the fool who was known throughout the city.

But how did he become so terrifyingly strong?

This was simply hair-raising. Someone who was recognized as a fool by everyone had suddenly transformed into an unfathomable expert. How could they accept that?

“Lin Xun, is it because I broke off our engagement that you’ve come to take revenge? If so, just come at me alone!” A disheveled Wang Ziluan stood up, still covered in soup and vegetable scraps as she glared angrily at Lin Xun.

Lin Xun crossed his hands behind his back and sneered. “Don’t regard yourself too highly. You are not worthy.”

Wang Ziluan looked as if she had been greatly humiliated. “If that’s not the case, then why did you barge into our residence and hurt our people?”

Lin Xun said, “To settle a score, of course. And it includes your Wang Clan as well.”

These words shocked the entire room. As many understood what Lin Xun meant, their expression drastically changed.

Those who were a little slower also came to realize that he had come not only to take revenge, but also to demand justice for the declining Lin Clan!

“The ruin of your clan has nothing to do with us,” said a short and fat middle-aged man in luxurious clothes, his voice cold.

Bang!

The man was forced to his knees by a terrifying pressure as soon as the words left his mouth.

The crowd was frightened into utter silence.

From the moment Lin Xun had appeared until now, no one had seen him make a move despite the floor being full of kneeling big shots. Such terrifying power and ability filled their hearts with fear.

“It doesn’t matter whether you played a part in it or not. The only thing you need to know is that either you obediently cooperate, or I kill you here and slaughter your clansmen later,” said Lin Xun indifferently.

Before entering the mansion, he had already covered it with his spirit sense and seen everything happening in this Welcome Hall.

He had also long since determined the identity and background of everyone present, and to him, some of them were already as good as dead.

“What exactly do you want to do?” Wang Tianxing gritted his teeth, his face overcast.

“What do I want to do? Take my revenge, of course. Didn’t you declare yesterday that there would be no more Lin Clan in this Yujing City?” Lin Xun seemed to be smiling, but his eyes were frosty.

Wang Tianxing coldly grunted. “Considering the Lin Clan’s current situation, it isn’t any different from existing in name only. Who in this city doesn’t know this?”

Lin Xun’s gaze grew colder. “I also heard that some years ago, you said the wisest decision you had made in your life was to break off the marriage engagement with the Lin Clan?”

Wang Tianxing looked slightly uncomfortable. “Your father also agreed to it, so no one is to blame.”

“So then why does your clan want me dead?” asked Lin Xun.

Wang Tianxing was stunned. “What? There’s such a thing?”

“Father, it was my idea!” shouted Wang Ziluan, whose face changed drastically at the mention of this matter.

“Enough!” Huangfu Shao Yu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly smacked the table. His expression was icy, and his eyes were like electricity as he looked at Lin Xun. “Do you know what you’re doing?”

His words were biting cold.

The crowd secretly heaved a sigh of relief. They had to admit that Lin Xun had frightened them to the core, so when Huangfu Shao Yu stepped forward, they saw hope and regarded him as their savior!

He was a core disciple of Qingyun Sect and the successor to the Sect Leader. With him here, there was no place for the fool to act wildly!

The power and influence of the Qingyun Sect covered the entire world. They could easily crush the fool to death!

“Shao Yu.” Wang Ziluan was so emotional that she started crying. “You have to do right by my Wang Clan!”

“Don’t worry, I’m here,” Huangfu Shao Yu comforted his wife. Then, he looked at Lin Xun and arrogantly said, “Your Lin Clan fell because your father didn’t know his own limitations and tried to compete with my sect for the mineral vein. If you want to take revenge, then you can by all means go to Qingyun Sect. But...do you dare to?”

Many people sneered. That’s right, do you dare to oppose Qingyun Sect?

The next moment, their sneer froze on their faces as Lin Xun casually slapped out like swatting a fly.

And then, they saw Huangfu Shao Yu, their savior and hope, the core disciple of Qingyun Sect, the heaven pride known by the entire capital city, being sent flying. Blood spewed out from his mouth and nostrils, his teeth fell out, and he smashed into the distant wall with a dull sound.

His whole body twitched violently in bitter pain.

Struck by shock, the area was dead silent.
