Chapter 114: Rumors

In the small courtyard, the second elder and Lin Huaiyuan were sitting under the shade of a tree with the clan leader.

There were fresh fruits on the table beside them. Lin Huaiyuan picked up a bunch of grapes and fed them to the clan leader one by one while muttering something.

“Grandpa, Lin Mo is so arrogant as soon as he came back. He didn’t take us, the family members of Lin clan seriously!

“I heard that he found some treasures outside. Based on those items, he dared to openly challenge our Lin clan’s auction house the moment he returned to Lin City. Those items were sold at a price that wasn’t even enough to cover the cost. I really can’t bear to see it!”

“He doesn’t even put us, the elders of the clan, in his eyes. He dares to openly challenge me! After so many years, you should know better. My son and I have always been conscientious toward the clan. Even if we haven’t contributed much, we still have to work hard.” The second elder was also fanning the flames by the side.

The Lin clan’s leader, who was sitting on the recliner, did not even have the thought of opening his eyes. He did not reply to what the two of them had said.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door of the small courtyard.

“Knock, knock, knock.”

“Grandpa, I’ll open the door!” After saying that, Lin Huaiyuan stood up.

Lin Mo, who had been listening at the door for a while, knew what these two people were scheming!

With a gentle push of his hands, the courtyard door was opened.

“You two are really shameless. You even complained to the clan leader. I really overestimated you two in the past,” Lin Mo said to the second elder and Lin Huaiyuan after glancing around the small courtyard with a cold face.

“Don’t slander me here. Father and I are accompanying Grandpa to enjoy the shade and chat with him!”

Without wasting his breath with Lin Huaiyuan, Lin Mo entered the small courtyard and went straight to the shade of the tree.

“Grandpa, I’m here!”

“Oh, you’re here!” the clan head replied weakly, but his closed eyes were slightly opened.

Without any more questions, the clan leader looked at Lin Mo. He looked like a 60-year-old man. However, anyone who dared to look down on him would definitely be killed!

“After tomorrow, it will be the day of the next auction. My grandson will definitely make the event a good one!”

This was a promise, a guarantee, and a military order. This was Lin Mo’s confidence, and also his goal for coming here.

“Alright, I’ll be waiting for your good news!” The clan leader looked at Lin Mo, and after a while, he said a few words, before closing his eyes again.

“Second Brother, all of you can go back!” This was the expulsion order.

The second elder opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he did not say anything and left.

...

“The old man has seen everything in his life. How dare you show off your narrow-mindedness? Do you think I’m stupid? I’ll see how you end up!” Lin Mo said to the second elder. After that, he turned around and left without stopping.

“You!” The second elder raised his head and wanted to refute, but what he saw was Lin Mo’s back as he walked further away.

After that, he looked at Lin Huaiyuan with a gloomy face.

“How are your plans going? Did the auction house receive any good items recently?”

“Father, are you still worried about me? Over the past few days, the Lin auction house didn’t receive any auction items above fifth-level!” Lin Huaiyuan answered decisively.

“Be careful and ensure the plans work. This is all from our funds. By the way, Lin Mo’s attitude is a bit weird today.”

“Don’t worry, Father.”

...

After they left, Lin Huaiyuan came to the room and walked around anxiously.

“What’s going on? Senior Brothers Lu Gan and Yu Shenkong have been gone for so many days. How come there’s no news about them? I have to go to the inn to find out!”

After that, Lin Huaiyuan jumped out of the window, and disappeared on the street, followed by a few grey mosquitoes.

Not long after, he arrived at the inn. Hanging upside down on the eaves in the same way, he knocked five times. After waiting for a while, there was no response in the room.

“What’s going on? Senior Brother and the others aren’t here?” Lin Huaiyuan muttered to himself. Then, he drew out the dagger on his waist, opened the switch behind the window and jumped in.

This room was clean.

“Senior Brother, where did you go?”

Lin Huaiyuan walked around the empty room twice. He found nothing and could not find any secret signal. He could only leave helplessly.

However, what he did not notice was that the mosquitoes that had been following him had stopped in the inn.

...

After returning to his room, Lin Huaiyuan still felt a bit uneasy. He could not pinpoint any missing link in the plan. However, he did not know where his senior brothers had gone to.

‘Could it be that they have other missions? Why didn’t I know about it?’

Gritting his teeth, he walked out of the door and said to the guard, “Go and tell those people to not be stingy with money. We’ll take whatever we can find. No matter the price, we mustn’t leave any leeway for Lin Mo!”

“Yes, Young Master.” That person cupped his fists and left in a hurry.

...

At this moment, thirty miles away from Lin City, there was a fallen phoenix. According to legend, a phoenix once fell here and was surrounded and killed.

At this moment, there was also a person who was surrounded. That person was completely white. Even his hair was tied up by a white band.

However, he wore a pair of blood-red gloves. At the joints where the gloves were protruding, there were a few bumps that extended outward, like a tiger wearing the gloves.

“Are you all from the Battle Immortal Sect? I’ve already escaped to this place. Are you still not going to let me go?” the man with the gloves asked in a stern voice.

“I’ve never seen anyone escapes unscathed after offending the Battle Immortal Sect! “Since you, Blood Fist Nan Ming Chang, dare to kill a disciple of our sect, you should be prepared to be chased to the ends of the earth!”
