Chapter 1393: Chapter 1388: Three People (Part 1)

Wouldn’t that just give the foreigner an opportunity?

However, he still strictly adhered to the Dragon King’s response.

No matter how much doubt or lack of understanding he harbored inside.

He just believed that there were some things he couldn’t foresee.

Besides, the Dragon King in his heart was never wrong.

Yes, every decision he made.

The next day, on the way to school, Gu Long specifically sought him out.

He expressed the Dragon King’s intentions in a subtle manner.

Of course, very subtly, and from a standpoint that was entirely in Lin Xi’s interest.

After all, even if he wasn’t afraid of death, encountering someone as formidable as Lin Xi, he felt it was unnecessary to provoke him without a cause.

In addition, his impression of Lin Xi had always been very good.

Therefore, Lin Xi directly promised him not to harm innocent people as much as possible.

In fact, he had always been like this.

He wouldn’t involve innocent people.

Regarding Gu Long’s suggestion for him to temporarily leave Chuzhou City to avoid the ten ancient families,

He refused.

He said that if they came, he would very much like to see them.

Those ten ancient families who’ve been boasting in Huaxia for so many years, how impressive can they truly be!

As for the rest, he told Gu Long not to worry too much about it.

Gu Long was helpless and could only sigh and leave.

Of course, if Lin Xi later needed any help, he could always find him.

Afterward, Gu Long immediately left Chuzhou City.

He headed towards the ten families spread across the country, bringing the Dragon King’s message to them.

They had no objections to the Dragon King’s words.

After all, they were not the kind to kill innocents indiscriminately.

Otherwise, no matter how strong they were, they probably couldn’t have lasted for hundreds of years.

Even someone as powerful as the Dragon King was a person with principles, let alone these families.

At the same time, Gu Long subtly hinted at them to let the matter rest.

However, he could see that while the ten families agreed on the surface, they didn’t really take his words seriously in their hearts.

With this, there was nothing he could do.

He was just one of the Dragon King’s subordinates, not the Dragon King himself.

The ten families didn’t all have the same reaction.

Some three families, whose strength was relatively weaker compared to others and without a mid-Innate existence,

were hesitant about the matter.

Because if another accident occurred, losing another Innate,

their position among the ten families could be usurped by the families below.

This was their greatest current concern.

Although having an Innate elder crippled meant their reputation was completely lost in the ancient family community,

they couldn’t be as insistent on making Lin Xi pay a price as the other families were.

Should they just let it go?

Or should they follow the stronger families to seek justice?

On one hand, the abundance of treasures the Shangguan family acquired in the Secret Realm tempted them greatly.

If they got rid of Lin Xi, there would be no obstacle to their prestige over the Shangguan family.

Acquiring those treasures, they could at least get a share.

By then, couldn’t someone in their family break through to the Innate Realm?

Their family’s position would be very secure.

On the other hand, they were concerned about failing again.

You must know this time they lost ten Innates!

Ten Innates!

What does that mean?

If you calculate it thoroughly, in the past fifty years in Huaxia, there haven’t been this many people breaking through to the Innate level.

Innate, especially in the last decade, has been increasingly difficult to achieve.

Now, among the ten families, there are at least dozens of Peak Soldier Kings.

But they’re all stuck at a bottleneck, unable to break through.

Even if their location was full of spiritual energy, it too was sparse.

Gu Long didn’t say much further.

Sometimes, there’s no need to overstate things.

As for whether they could abide by it or if they really intended to do something,

it wasn’t something he could manage.

In reality, even the Dragon King might not be able to control it.

The overall strength and weight of these families in Huaxia aren’t something a single organization can deal with.

It’s not that the Dragon King lacks the ability to manage it.

It’s just that the matters he oversees and his burdens are too heavy.

"Enough!" Gu Long was exhausted.

Ever since he met Lin Xi, he had never had a moment of peace.

Truly, this guy attracts too much trouble.

No, it’s not that he’s causing trouble.

It’s more like others are provoking him.

One just wonders why he always ends up in such situations?

Or is it that he’s always attracting others’ attention?

On his way back to Chuzhou City, he thought that perhaps it was because the guy had too much luck and too many beautiful women around him.

Which was why all these things happened.

Ah!

Time to return to Chuzhou City.

Actually, he didn’t want to go back.

It’s just that the Dragon King wanted him to stay in Chuzhou City.

In reality, he knew.

Despite Chuzhou City being a large metropolis.

In the past six months, various powerful people and major events have mainly taken place there.

Because of this, he had obtained much intelligence.

Lin Xi didn’t concern himself with the aftermath.

In fact, he could roughly predict what would happen.

These days, he could also feel the presence of many inquiring in the shadows about him.

Or perhaps they were gathering information on him and those around him.

He didn’t pay much attention to this.

But to the others who knew about it, it felt like a storm was brewing.

After all, those are the ten families.

Moreover, it’s not like no strong individuals came from abroad.

The five foreign Innates weren’t without loss.

Perhaps they were more heartbroken than the ten families.

Because, for them, an Innate is their greatest strength and perhaps their only one.

The power they held would suddenly be eroded.

Other forces grew even stronger.

So, they secretly dispatched stronger forces to Chuzhou City.

Shangguan Nichang continuously sought out Lin Xi during this period.

It wasn’t that she was attracted to Lin Xi, nor was it her restless, pounding heart that sought a conversation with Lin Xi about hearts and minds.

Rather, she was aware of the current situation.

She wanted to know what Lin Xi’s countermeasures were.

However, Lin Xi always told her to leave it to fate, without any hint of worry.

This truly made her want to hit him.

Well, if she could beat him.

The three ladies at home—Bai Bing, Mengmeng, and Qiaoqiao—were aware of what happened that night.

They didn’t concern themselves much with it.

Of course, to be cautious.

These days, Mengmeng and Qiaoqiao accompanied Bai Bing to her company.

Yes, they go to and from work together.

It’s for mutual support.

What if something happens?

Even though Gu Long warned not to involve Lin Xi’s family.

But with people’s unpredictable intentions, who knows if they might do something outrageous.
