Chapter 1128: Lin Clan's Internal Affairs (2)
Fought among themselves?!
"Did they fight with each other? How is that possible?"
"That's right! I see the two of them are very close. Especially the Fourteenth Elder Master and the Fifteenth Elder Master, they always go everywhere together."
"By the way, where is the Fifteenth Elder Master? Why doesn't he join us in the meeting?"
Many of them were puzzled when they heard the Grand Elder's answer that the Fourth Elder and Fourteenth Elder Master fought each other. Because everyone knew well that the two of them were very close. So why did they fight each other?
"I know everyone is curious and can't believe that something like this would happen. But all of this has been confirmed, and there are witnesses to the incident." The Grand Elder knew that everyone would not believe it. Because at first, he did not want to believe it either. But because he had verified the whole story. And it was really what the eyewitnesses said. And to confirm it with everyone, he had witnesses come in and tell the story of what had happened, "Let the witnesses come in!"
Creeeaaak!
Respect, Clan Leader, Master Grand Elder, and all elders!!!
Hah!?
It's them!
After seeing the witnesses, everyone gasped in shock. Because those witnesses were the Fifteenth Elder Master, three young misses of the clan, and a mysterious young man whom they had never seen before.
"Fifteenth Elder Master, please tell everyone everything that happened!" The Grand Elder nodded lightly to Lin-Tao and said to him.
Yes, sir!
"The story is just as Master Grand Elder said! The two of them really fought with each other. And the whole thing happened like this..."
The Fifteenth Elder Master started the story from the beginning as Zheng-Fu plotted. He played the role like he was a Golden Doll award-winning actor. In addition to being able to tell the story realistically, he also added various colorful events to the story to make it more realistic.
Oh!!!
"This is how it all happened!"
Umm!
"I never expected Fourteenth Elder Master to be such an evil person."
Sigh!
"That's true! He deserved to be killed like that. But it's very regretful and sad for the Fourth Elder. What a good and kind person he is! He was even willing to risk himself to help the clan's descendants, causing himself to be crippled like this!"
"That's right! Not only would he not be able to cultivate martial arts anymore, but living like a normal person would be extremely difficult!"
"If Master Fourth Elder had a family, we might be able to help support his family. But he was a loner who was so dedicated to cultivation that he wasn't even married. The more it was like this, the more it seemed like he was truly alone!"
"Not at all! Even though he didn't have a family of his own, he was a member of the Lin Clan. How can we leave him alone? Right, everyone?"
Yes!
That's right!
Everyone praised the Fourth Elder. Because Lin-Tao's fake actions made him look like a hero in their eyes. No one knew how sad and upset the Fourth Elder truly was. He wanted to kill himself right then if he could. However, because of Zheng-Fu's decisive management, he could not commit suicide. He could only live in such torture.
But besides those who praised, some felt that he deserved it and cursed him as well. Because many people were still dissatisfied with the actions of the Fourth Elder throughout the past. Therefore, even if he had done well this time, it would not erase the many bad things he had done before.
However, in addition to those who admired and cursed, there was another group of people who felt differently. They were the Fourth Elder's accomplices. Such as the Second Elder, who was a pillar person responsible for many matters. He knew that the story that the Fifteenth Elder Master had told was completely fabricated. And such a thing would definitely never happen. But he did not dare protest because it would cause his complicity with the Fourth Elder to be revealed as well.
'How could something like that happen? In fact, those three girls were to die, including Fourteenth Elder Master and Fifteenth Elder Master. But why is it that the Fourteenth Elder Master is the only one who dies, and the Fourth Elder is disabled? And who is that young man?' Many questions kept running through the Second Elder's mind. If he could ask without arousing suspicion, he would have done it already. And what made him most curious was the mysterious young man who was silent in the middle of the group.
"Everyone, be quiet!"
Ah!
Suddenly, a middle-aged Clan Leader sitting in the middle of the hall ordered everyone to be quiet in a deep and formidable tone. Before he stood up, took a slight step forward, and then stopped. All the while, his eyes looked nowhere but at the mysterious young man.
"Who are you? What intention did you come to our clan with?" Clan Leader asked. He also released the fifth level of the Deity Monarch Stage energy waves into the surrounding atmosphere. His instincts told him that Zheng-Fu was no ordinary person. The young man had a calm and prudent personality that exceeded that of the average person. Even in this stressful situation, he remained calm and unwavering.
Clan Leader!!!
The Clan Leader's actions shocked everyone. They did not understand what their Clan Leader meant or who he was asking. But following the Clan Leader's gaze, they saw that the person he asked was a young man whom they did not pay much attention to.
"Clan Leader, sir. He is..."
"I didn't ask you!"
Ah!!!
Lin-Tao tried to explain, but the Clan Leader waved his hand dismissively, creating an energy wave that pushed Lin-Tao away, before turning back to look at Zheng-Fu again.
"Say it! If you haven't said it yet, then don't accuse me of being cruel!"
Thump!
"Are you sure you want to trade Lin Clan's fate for the truth about my true identity?" Zheng-Fu walked forward slightly and asked back with a calm expression. The energy waves that the Lin Clan Leader released could not do anything to him.
Ah!
Elder Master Zheng-Fu!
What the Lin Clan Leader did shocked everyone, but what Zheng-Fu did shocked everyone even more. And they were helpless. Because just now, that young man looked like an ordinary person, but after he walked out, the atmosphere in the room was filled with a terrifying and eerie aura. Even though the energy wave from him was only at the Deity Apprentice Stage, its danger was not inferior to that of their leader.
Hah!
"Here is the Lin Clan. You came alone like this; what do you think you can do to my clan?" Although the Lin Clan Leader was shocked by the pressure and psychic threat from Zheng-Fu. But in just a moment, he returned to normal and asked back without fear. And he still thought he was in a superior status.
"You can try. But you must prepare yourself well for the consequences. If you can bear it, then go ahead!" Zheng-Fu was also indifferent to the other party's words. Because his energy level was equal to the Lin Clan Leader. But in terms of strength, he was even stronger than those at the ultimate sixth level of the Deity Monarch Stage.
Ha ha ha!
But Zheng-Fu's words, which should have made the Lin Clan Leader angry, instead made him burst into laughter. Not only did he laugh, but the energy waves and pressure he released were also withdrawn.
"I must apologize for my rudeness just now. I just want to test you. I hope you won't be angry and forgive me!" The Lin Clan Leader then apologized to Zheng-Fu in a friendly tone.
Hah!?
Zheng-Fu frowned slightly when he heard that. He did not expect that it was the other party's test. He thought that the Lin Clan Leader already knew his identity, so he revealed himself.
"Lin Clan Leader, you have given me too much honor. I'm the one who has to apologize to you. I came here hiding my true identity, naturally, it would cause suspicion and distrust!" Zheng-Fu forced a smile as he replied to the Lin Clan Leader. And at that time, he also revealed his true energy level.
The… the fifth level of the Deity Monarch Stage!!!
Everyone in Lin Clan's eyes widened in shock as they sensed Zheng-Fu's energy, especially the three young women and Lin-Tao. Even though Lin-Tao knew that Zheng-Fu was very strong, he did not expect that the young man would be that strong. The three young women also thought the same as Lin-Tao. They had believed that Zheng-Fu might be at the same energy level as their Fourth Uncle or slightly higher. But actually, he was on par with the Clan Leader.
"You can call me Lin-Jun. By the way, has anyone arranged a room for Master yet? If not, I'll have someone arrange it for you right away," Lin-Jun greeted Zheng-Fu cordially. Although he did not know who Zheng-Fu was or where he came from, he could feel that the other party was definitely not malicious.
"Thank you, Master Lin-Jun, very much. I have got a room. The Fifth Lady had already arranged a room for me before we came here. And I'm very satisfied with that room. My name's Zheng-Fu. You can just call me Zheng-Fu!" Zheng-Fu saw that the other party was being honest with him, so he responded politely and honestly.
"All right, Younger Brother Zheng-Fu!"
Lin-Jun changed from calling Zheng-Fu 'Master' to 'Younger Brother' to create a more friendly atmosphere. He wanted to make friends with Zheng-Fu and thought it would be best to call each other names like close people.
"Thank you, Big Brother Jun! Then I won't disturb the meeting of Big Brother and the clan. Everyone, please continue your meeting."
Umm!
After they had improved their understanding and made friends, the meeting continued with Zheng-Fu listening in as well. Because that meeting did not have secret matters. Apart from the matter of the two elders, there was the matter of the annual contest, which would be held soon. The Lin Clan was a forger clan, so they had to participate in the competition as well. However, they still could not find high-quality ore suitable for forging weapons to defeat the other three clans. That was the reason why the Lin Clan was stressed right then.
"If we hadn't been blocked by the black-robed group that day, we would have gotten Green Dragon Scale Ore. And we can probably forge an advanced Heavenly Weapon!"
"That's true! But even if we speak now, nothing will get better. Because Green Dragon Scale Ore is now in the hands of the Du Clan. As for the Xie Clan, they have Autumn Winter Ore, which is of no less quality. And the Hong Clan also has Heavenly Fire Crane Ore that they recently mined. All three clans already have ores that can create advanced Heavenly Weapons. But our clan..."
Sigh!
The more they thought and discussed, the more everyone in the Lin Clan became discouraged. They had tried their best to acquire Special Heavenly Ore. But several months had passed, and they still had not gotten the desired ore.
"Big Brother Jun, can this ore be used?"
Hah?!
But at that moment, Zheng-Fu, who had been silent the whole time, picked up a lump of ore. It was an ore lump that was about as big as a kid's head. But size was not the main issue; the energy waves that the ore released around it were what was interesting.
This is Heavenly Voices Arrangement Metal Ore!
Heavenly Voices Arrangement Metal Ore!!!
