Chapter 1353: Power and Compromise!
“Brother, you…” the tall man didn’t know why his brother-in-law, Zhuang Chong Huan, was acting like that. Why was he so angry? He glared at Lin Feng angrily again. It was all that asshole’s fault!
Lin Feng frowned. He didn’t end all this after what Zhuang Chong Huan said. He said, “If you don’t solve the issue, I won’t leave the matter at that, Leader Zhuang! Ling Yun is your son too, and if you allow those people to humiliate him and call him an idiot and a piece of trash, then, from now on, the Region of the Eight Corners and Jun Hall may become enemies,” Lin Feng declared gravely.
Zhuang Chong Huan’s expression shifted.
The woman and the man looked dumbstruck, suddenly realizing who Lin Feng was and why he dared talk to Zhuang Chong Huan like that. He was the one Zhuang Ling Yun relied on, the Leader of the Region of the Eight Corners, Lin Feng! Apart from Lin Feng, who else could compete with a Holy Godly Ancestor, even though they only had the strength of the Spiritual Godly Ancestor layer?
The woman and the man pulled long faces. They had thought Lin Feng was just a random piece of trash who wanted to cause trouble in Jun Hall.
Zhuang Chong Huan was angry at everybody. The two people had insulted his son and Lin Feng had acted arrogantly and insolently. He looked at Lin Feng and said icily, “You are in Jun Hall here! You must abide by our rules!”
“Hehe, what if I refuse?” Lin Feng answered back. The atmosphere became even more gloomy. They stared at each other icily. Even if Zhuang Chong Huan was strong and his Qi terrifying, Lin Feng was being supported by the Ice Spirit and the Fire Spirit, so he didn’t feel any pressure.
“You better not offend Jun Hall,” said Zhuang Chong Huan gloomily. It was the first time someone had threatened Jun Hall. Lin Feng was just a Spiritual Godly Ancestor, and was much younger than them.
He had threatened Jun Hall a few times already, how was that possible? What a joke!
“Zhuang Chong Huan, before meeting you, I thought you were a real man. Now, hehehe, I realize you’re a good-for-nothing. Zhuang Ling Yun is your son, and even if you look down upon him, you should still intervene when other people insult him because when someone humiliates your son, they humiliate you, too.”
“I know that they are Zhuang Ling Xiao’s mother and maternal uncle, and they are great assets for Jun Hall. You don’t mind when they insult Ling Yun because you want to protect Ling Xiao, right?” said Lin Feng grimly. Lin Feng was teaching Zhuang Chong Huan a good lesson.
When Zhuang Chong Huan heard Lin Feng, his expression didn’t change. Zhuang Ling Yun was a member of the Zhuang Clan, after all. Treating him like that was unworthy, and he didn’t deserve it. Ling Yun now relied on Lin Feng. If he treated Zhuang Ling Yun unjustly once again, he might really infuriate Lin Feng!
“Lin Feng, what do you want?” asked Zhuang Chong Huan, slowly raising his head and looking at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng shook his head and glanced at the woman and the man indifferently. Then he smiled, “I don’t want anything. It’s your problem. Not mine. You’re the one who let them insult Ling Yun, not me.”
“Sister, apologize to Leader Lin,” said Zhuang Chong Huan, taking a deep breath. He had to make the woman apologize, or the situation would deteriorate too much.
The woman wasn’t willing to apologize, of course. But if she didn’t apologize, Jun Hall would be in trouble.
“I…”
“Don’t apologize to me. Apologize to Ling Yun,” said Lin Feng, interrupting the woman and pointing to Zhuang Ling Yun.
The woman was outraged, “Don’t go too far! If you offend us, we can also destroy the Region of the Eight Corners!”
“Hehe, how insolent. Since it’s that way, let’s start a war! Tomorrow at noon, I will make all the strong cultivators of the Region of the Eight Corners gather on the edge of Shen Hai. If you’re confident, accept!” said Lin Feng, smiling icily. Then he stood up and turned away.
Zhuang Chong Huan was surprised. He hadn’t thought Lin Feng would go that far. Starting a war? No matter how strong both parties were, in a war, they would both suffer losses!
“Leader Lin, people in the Region of the Eight Corners will burst into an uproar if you do that,” said Zhuang Chong Huan hastily. The Region of the Eight Corners could participate in a war, but not Jun Hall. If they did, then their existence would become official and public, and some people might destroy Jun Hall.
Zhuang Chong Huan was terrified. It would be a catastrophe!
“Hehe, if the Region of the Eight Corners dare attack Jun Hall, the Xiao Hun Hall will also send some strong cultivators to support Jun Hall. The Region of the Eight Corners will suffer the most losses and will get destroyed,” declared the Leader of the Xiao Hun Hall at that moment. It was an incredible opportunity to help Zhuang Ling Xiao become the Leader of Jun Hall.
As expected, when the woman heard him, she looked overjoyed. Awesome! With Leader Xiao Hun’s help, they didn’t need to fear the Region of the Eight Corners. The woman glanced at Lin Feng mockingly, daring him to do something more and provoke them.
“Hehe, where is the Xiao Hun Hall? Where is the Region of the Eight Corners? Leader Xiao Hun, don’t you realize I consider you a joke?”
“You can fool the people of Jun Hall, but not me. The Xiao Hun Hall is situated in the Northeast of the World of Battles, it’s under Ancestor Nü’s jurisdiction. It’s in the Northwest of Shen Hai Mo Lin. To travel from the Xiao Hun Hall to Shen Hai Mo Lin, it takes two days and one night. Are you sure you’ll be able to have people over to support Jun Hall if we start a war?” said Lin Feng, smiling mockingly, looking down upon the Leader of the Xiao Hun Hall.
The woman’s expression suddenly changed. She knew the Leader of the Xiao Hun Hall was an Overlord, but she didn’t know where it was situated. When she heard Lin Feng, she realized there was a problem.
Zhuang Chong Huan felt desperate and rather hopeless. Then he thought of another problem!
Even if Zhuang Ling Xiao became the future Leader, the distance between the Xiao Hun Hall and Shen Hai Mo Lin was hundreds of millions of li, so traveling back and forth was extremely difficult and inconvenient. However, traveling back and forth between Shen Hai Mo Lin and the Region of the Eight Corners was much, much easier. They only needed a day!
What if the Region of the Eight Corners really started a war against Jun Hall? The Region of the Eight Corners was getting stronger and stronger each day.
Jun Hall had two powerful fortune tellers, Zhuang Ling Xiao and Zhuang Ling Yun. In the future, they might become Great Masters in Fortunetelling. If the two boys supported Xiao Hun Hall and the Region of the Eight Territories with their predictions, the two influential groups would become extremely powerful!
“Leader Zhuang, see you tomorrow at noon,” said Lin Feng. He wasn’t willing to stay there and listen to these people’s nonsense, so he grabbed Zhuang Ling Yun’s hand and got ready to leave.
Zhuang Chong Huan’s expression changed again. He knew that if Lin Feng left, a war would start between the Region of the Eight Corners and Jun Hall. It would be a bloody tragedy. The Region of the Eight Corners was known as a place where evil people lived because people there were wild and savage. Shen Hai Mo Lin was known as a Forbidden Territory where death was omnipresent because some Overlords had fallen there in the ancient times, not because of Jun Hall!
The Region of the Eight Corners had just obtained some strong cultivators from the Spiritual Warriors Clan. Starting a war against the Region of the Eight Corners wasn’t wise. The Region of the Eight Corners also had the Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points. He was stronger than three other Overlords!
“Leader Lin, slowly; sister, apologize to Ling Yun!” Zhuang Chong Huan ordered icily. He was really angry.
The woman didn’t dare say anything else. She just lowered her head and smiled coldly, then apologized to Ling Yun, “Sorry, I am not a good aunt. I shouldn’t have humiliated you. Please forgive me, my little nephew.”
“And you, apologize too!” shouted Lin Feng, glancing at the tall man.
The big fellow’s expression changed but he lowered his head and said to Zhuang Ling Yun, “Ling Yun, please forgive me.”
“Alright, everybody is happy now. Haha!”
After the big fellow apologized too, Zhuang Chong Huan clapped his hands happily, trying to defuse the tension. Zhuang Chong Huan and Leader Xiao Hun both took a deep breath. The situation was solved, for now…
Lin Feng nodded as well. Since they had apologized, he had to accept and forget about it now. He couldn’t go too far, after all. Jun Hall wasn’t an insignificant influential group. The reason why he had pushed things that far was that he was convinced Jun Hall would end up making the man and the woman apologize.
Lin Feng was still holding Zhuang Ling Yun’s hand. He slowly walked back to Zhuang Chong Huan and said to him telepathically, “I don’t have just two Overlords backing me up, Leader Zhuang!”
“You…” Zhuang Chong Huan’s expression changed drastically. He wanted to say something, but the words didn’t come out. Lin Feng was being helped by other Overlords? Who? He really had to think of who the best choice to be the successor of Jun Hall was.
“Let’s proceed with the selection,” said Zhuang Chong Huan. He was annoyed; because of Lin Feng, they wasted a lot of time.
