Chapter 44 Wedding
Ever since Lin Zhentian advanced to the Xiaoyuandan realm, the Lin family no longer blindly defended themselves. Some spies were secretly sent back to Qingyang Town to gather intelligence on the Lei and Xie families.
Not only that, the Lin family also contacted the Crazy Blade Martial Arts School to discuss cooperation. The relationship between the two families was pretty good because of the Lei and Xie families, so the Crazy Blade Martial Arts School did not refuse outright, but was a little hesitant. After all, if they really started fighting, the losses would not be small.
However, this hesitation immediately disappeared after they learned that Lin Zhentian had already entered the Xiaoyuandan realm and Xie Qian had been killed by Lin Changqiang long ago.
However, not long after the two sides finished discussing the cooperation, an invitation from the Lei and Xie families was suddenly delivered to Tiemu Manor...
In a hall in Tiemu Manor, a red invitation was lying quietly on the table.
"Why would the Lei and Xie families suddenly send invitations? They are invitations to the wedding of Lei Li and Xie Yingying?" Lin Xiao frowned. The two families are now incompatible with each other. They might fight as soon as they meet. Why would they invite them?
"Who cares? They are definitely trying to harm our Lin family." Lin Changqiang chuckled. The Lei family's confidence is nothing more than Lei Bao, who has just broken through to the Lesser Yuandan realm, and a talisman master. "Just when I was about to hit someone, they put their faces close to me. It's really like sending a pillow when you are sleepy."
"The Lei and Xie families have been very generous this time. They not only sent invitations to our Lin family, but also to all the famous forces within a hundred miles of Qingyang Town." Lin Zhentian took a sip from the teacup and sneered, "I guess the two families want to unite completely and use their power to coerce others to side with them."
"Father, are we going or not?"
"We must go, of course!" Lin Zhentian said firmly, "One Yuandan realm, five Tianyuan realm, plus the four Tianyuan realm from the Crazy Blade Martial Arts School, even if the Lei and Xie families join forces, what can they do?"
Hearing this, everyone in the field showed a confident smile on their face.
"Give the order, organize the troops, and go to the Lei family for a banquet in two days!"
Two days later.
The Lei family compound was bustling with people, the sound of gongs and drums was resounding, people were coming and going in an endless stream, and the laughter of congratulations could be heard all the time.
As the two families with the most profound heritage in Qingyang Town, the wedding banquets of the Lei and Xie families were quite grand.
"The Lin family is here!"
A servant shouted loudly, and immediately, the bustling courtyard fell silent. Everyone looked outside the courtyard and saw hundreds of horses coming with the sound of rumbling hooves, and finally stopped neatly outside the gate of the Lei family. They were a black mass, blocking most of the road. It was truly impressive.
"It's the Lin family! How dare they come?"
"The Lei and Xie families have long been at loggerheads with the Lin family. It looks like there will be something interesting to watch today."
"If the Lei family dares to invite, the Lin family will dare to come. It seems that both families have some support."
Everyone's eyes swept between the Lin family and the Lei family, and they whispered to each other. Some forces that used to get along well with the Lin family were hesitant and dared not step forward, for fear of displeasing the Lei and Xie families.
The Lin family doesn't care much about these guys. Since they are willing to side with the Lei family today, they will also side with them in the future.
"Mr. Lin is still strong despite his old age." In the courtyard of the Lei family, a figure walked out quickly surrounded by a crowd. He glanced at the large number of people from the Lin family and said with a smile, "The Lin family is honored to attend the wedding banquet of our Lei and Xie families. Lei Pi would like to thank them in advance."
"Don't be polite. I know you wish I were dead." Lin Zhentian glanced at him and waved his hand casually, not wanting to give this guy any face at all.
Although the other party was killed when they attacked Lin Dong, the old man still holds a grudge. Lei Pi's eyes twitched slightly, and then his smile disappeared: "Mr. Lin, there are not many places left in the courtyard, so these people, please stay outside the courtyard."
"The Lei family is so big, but they are so poor that they can't even afford a few tables?" Lin Changqiang on the side raised his eyebrows, took out something and threw it to Lei Pi, saying with a smile, "Here, take this Yang Yuan Stone and buy a few good tables. The extra ones are my reward~"
"That's right. Your Lei family isn't afraid that we'll cause trouble, right?" Lin Dong, who was standing by, also agreed with a smile, and then looked at Lei Pi with concern: "Have you recovered from your injury last time? Are there any sequelae?"
Hearing what the two said, Lei Pi's face suddenly turned dark. He tightly grasped the Yang Yuan Stone in his hand and stared at the two of them fiercely, like a hungry wolf choosing its prey.
Lin Zhentian on the side suddenly took a step forward and stood in front of Lei Pi without saying a word. However, he frightened Lei Pi so much that his breathing stopped and he involuntarily took two steps back.
After scaring Lei Pi away, Lin Zhentian glanced at him, then waved his hand, and the hundreds of figures behind him dispersed and hid in the dark. Although these people and horses could only be scattered outside, as long as they sent a signal, they could rush into the Lei family at the fastest speed.
"please!"
Seeing Lin Zhentian dismissing his men, Lei Pi finally breathed a sigh of relief and quickly moved away from the gate.
Seeing this, Lin Zhentian nodded to everyone, then took the lead and stepped into the Lei family, followed by Lin Changqiang and others.
In the Lei family compound, there is a hall as wide as a square. At this moment, the hall is very lively, crowded with people, and filled with laughter.
Amid many surprised looks, the Lin family members found a seat at random and sat down calmly.
Almost everyone in the hall noticed the Lin family, but most of them turned a blind eye and did not dare to step forward to say hello.
Nowadays, the Lei and Xie families are in their prime. Anyone who dares to make friends with the Lin family will offend both the Lei and Xie families at the same time. Therefore, they either feel it is not worth it or simply dare not to do so.
Because of this, a space in the hall, which was originally almost full, suddenly became empty. However, Lin Changqiang and others did not care about it at all.
Not long after, there was another commotion outside the hall. Then, a group of people walked straight up to the Lin family in front of the guests' astonished eyes.
"Mr. Lin, long time no see." Luo Cheng smiled and bowed when he saw Lin Zhentian, but his heart was slightly shaken. He could feel a vague sense of oppression from the latter's body. It seemed that the other party had indeed broken through to the Xiaoyuandan realm.
Lin Zhentian naturally did not put on airs in response to this. He smiled and started chatting with the other party. The people from the Kuang Dao Martial Arts School also sat in the empty seats next to them.
A few minutes later, there was a commotion outside the door. Then, Lei Bao, dressed in black, walked in with a smile on his face, leading people from the Lei and Xie families.
"Dong, congratulations to the host, the side quest has been triggered - The leaders of Qingyang Town: The Lei and Xie families are plotting something bad, and are trying to take this opportunity to completely eradicate the Lin family and the Crazy Blade Martial Arts School. Please make sure to get rid of the evildoers!
If the mission is successful, you will be awarded five chances to draw the lottery, and if the mission fails, three chances will be deducted. "
