The powers behind Zhongcheng Hall and Medicine Immortal Pavilion are intricate and complex. Although Lin Beichen spoke lightly in front of Liu Nuyan, he remained vigilant.
When discussing these long-standing families, it’s impossible to talk about them alone.
One must talk about their allies, marriages, relatives, and even their subtle manipulations.
If Lin Beichen wanted to uproot them completely, he naturally had to plan meticulously to ensure that there were no future troubles.
But he only wanted a peaceful life, so giving them a warning to make them realize he was not to be trifled with was enough.
The family of Zhongcheng Hall is located by the Dragon Sleep River near the Imperial Capital.
It’s rumored that during the Ming and Qing dynasties, a Divine Dragon descended from the sky here.
The Divine Dragon fell into the lake and slept here, hence the name Dragon Sleep River.
The land around Dragon Sleep River is rich and verdant. Walking along the lakeside boardwalk, Lin Beichen soon found himself in a bamboo forest.
In the middle of the bamboo forest, there was a manor.
As soon as Lin Beichen entered the bamboo forest, two men in robes blocked his way.
The two men wore loose robes, hiding their terrifying muscles underneath, and their expressions warned strangers to keep away.
"Zhongcheng Hall seems to have a knack for training people."
Lin Beichen was slightly curious.
In modern society, material desires were rampant.
The rise of self-media and live streaming allowed everyone to explore business opportunities.
Anyone who achieves something in a particular field, with a bit of operation, even if they can’t get rich, can still live comfortably.
Guards like these two, if placed outside, would be highly sought after by numerous security companies.
In fact, some clubs or high-end gyms, or even live streaming agencies, would scramble to sign them.
Yet, they were willing to act as insignificant guards here, showcasing the strength behind Zhongcheng Hall!
"You may not know, sir, but Zhongcheng Hall is a lifetime honorary member of the Imperial Capital Martial Arts Association, especially since an elder named Zhao appeared in the Zhao lineage. Even though he has only one arm left, his strength is unparalleled and respected by all."
Zhao Elder.
Lin Beichen was slightly stunned, and two beautiful faces flashed in his mind.
Secretly, he was surprised.
Could it really be such a coincidence?
How was the Zhao Family connected to Zhongcheng Hall?
At that moment, Liu Nuyan had already approached and stated his purpose.
One of the men raised a scanner aimed at Liu Nuyan.
"So, you were sent by the Second Young Master. You may go in."
Liu Nuyan chuckled and walked into the bamboo forest.
He turned around and waved to Lin Beichen. However, when Lin Beichen tried to follow, he was blocked by the two strong men.
"Sir, without identification or an invitation from my master, you have no right to enter."
The strong man looked at Lin Beichen coldly. Although there was no mockery in his eyes, his superior expression was full of pressure, obviously trying to make Lin Beichen back off.
Lin Beichen’s hand wavered.
A stream of Five Elements Qi flowed through his hand, and when he opened it again, three silver needles appeared in his palm.
"I am a physician, here to discuss medical techniques."
"Discuss medical techniques?"
The two men were taken aback.
They had noticed Lin Beichen earlier but found nothing special about him.
Unlike Liu Nuyan.
Liu Nuyan showed the aura of a seasoned martial artist with killing intent all over his body at a glance.
In contrast, Lin Beichen exuded only a scholarly vibe, with nothing unusual except for his slightly clear eyes.
They thought that even if Lin Beichen were a doctor, he probably wasn’t qualified to discuss medical techniques with their master.
Liu Nuyan wore a peculiar smile, refraining from speaking or stepping forward.
Although Lin Beichen had given him an Immortal Pill, he still wanted to see if Lin Beichen had any skills.
Lin Beichen glanced at Liu Nuyan and frowned slightly.
He didn’t want to make trouble in front of servants as it would make him look foolish.
But if someone wanted to take advantage of the situation to trouble him, that would be a different matter.
A faint light appeared in Lin Beichen’s eyes. Just as he was about to act, a sudden exclamation came from behind him.
"What are you doing here?"
Outside the bamboo forest, Zhao Baiying and Zhao Weinan had just gotten out of the car and were staring at Lin Beichen in a daze.
The light in Lin Beichen’s hand faded, and a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
"Is the Imperial Capital really that small?"
Lin Beichen said, showing a wry smile.
In front of these two, it wasn’t appropriate to make a move.
"What are you doing here?"
Zhao Baiying walked quickly up to Lin Beichen, asking in surprise and delight.
The events of tonight in the suburbs could almost be turned into a movie.
The more Zhao Baiying thought about it, the more excited she became, though she regretted not having a longer interview with Lin Beichen.
Zhao Weinan had a different opinion, feeling that Lin Beichen was not a simple person, and wanted Zhao Baiying to stay away from him.
But Zhao Baiying didn’t care about that.
She had vowed from a young age to pursue a director’s path.
For the sake of gathering material, Zhao Baiying even dared to venture alone into the Underworld, let alone face Lin Beichen.
Moreover, after returning to the dormitory, the more Zhao Baiying thought about tonight’s encounter, the more thrilling it felt.
It’s said that bad men are more attractive.
In her view, Lin Beichen was not just bad; he was bad in an extremely charming way.
Even the Fire Wolf of the Underworld was subdued obediently by a single call from Lin Beichen.
This kind of storyline, once adapted for the big screen, would surely attract countless fangirls.
