Chapter 99: Chapter 87: The Western Garden

At dusk, Lin Yuan slowly walked out of the residence.

Before leaving, he had already informed Zhu Lingshan of his whereabouts.

The latter naturally understood that her husband was no ordinary person, and only reminded him to go early and return early, and to stay safe.

Lin Yuan left the house and headed straight for the west courtyard of the Lotus Gang.

Since he had killed that Hall Master He, Lin Yuan had long considered the consequences.

Seeing the actions of this gang in recent days, bullying the poor, he found it intolerable.

When he stepped into that hall, he had already decided to annihilate them all. Letting them live a little longer was merely making use of them.

Killing that Hall Master He was just killing him. If he dared to kill An Heng, why would he fear a gang hall master?

If the other party wanted to seek vengeance on him at all costs for a mere hall master, then the Lotus Gang should have been cleaned out long ago. How could it have survived until now?

Profit above all else, and killing him had too high a cost with no benefit.

Human life is not as valuable as imagined.

On the other hand, now that the Little Dragon Tiger Tongbei Fist had broken through its limits, his Qi-Blood meridians had increased from the original thirty-two to forty lines.

Moreover, he had a premonition that after the second breakthrough, the number of Qi-Blood meridians might reach nearly fifty lines.

With this increase in strength, even facing an early-stage Condensation Realm person, he was confident.

In the end, his apparent strength was merely at the Qi-Blood Realm, and they wouldn’t send several Condensation Realm figures to kill him. To kill him, a vice-gang leader at the Condensation Realm would be enough.

But with only one person, who will triumph in the end remains uncertain.

Lin Yuan was quick on his feet and soon arrived at the west courtyard.

Unlike other streets closing up at dusk, this place was bustling, with wealthy offspring and debauched gamblers gathering here.

The four-story row of pavilions was extremely luxurious, carved with dragons and painted with phoenixes, dazzlingly bright along the street, lit up brilliantly.

The rooms were filled with the sound of orchestral music, flirtations, laughter, and bustling activity.

The front door on the first floor was crowded, like so many carp crossing the river.

He followed the stream of people inside.

Lin Yuan appeared thin, but his face was stern, and his presence was extraordinary. The glamorous madam at the door could immediately tell he was a person of power.

"Sir, are you here to listen to music or to drink?"

The voice of the madam, in her thirties, was alluring. Seeing Lin Yuan’s unfamiliar face and such a rare handsome man, she approached while speaking.

But she had applied too much heavy makeup, which caused Lin Yuan to frown.

In two lifetimes, this was his first visit to such a place, and he felt uncomfortable all over.

"Wangjiang Pavilion, I have an appointment," Lin Yuan sidestepped her with a cold snort.

"Oh, so it’s a guest of Master Cheng." The madam immediately understood that this person was no ordinary individual and didn’t persist.

"Xiaocui, Xiaohong, take this gentleman to Linjiang Pavilion." She called out to two maids to accompany Lin Yuan, her manner slightly more restrained: "Sir, please."

Lin Yuan nodded and followed the maids up to the fourth floor.

The maid led the way inside, and immediately, several trusted men of Cheng Xiongjia stepped forward.

"Master Lin, indeed a young hero of impressive demeanor." Then appeared Cheng Xiongjia, looking like a dark-skinned old farmer, sitting at the head, his face full of enthusiasm.

"Gang Leader Cheng?" Lin Yuan clasped his hands, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

"I am Cheng Xiongjia, an additional vice-gang leader of the Lotus Gang," Cheng Xiongjia laughed and waved his hand: "Take a seat."

Cheng Xiongjia’s smile faded, and he stared coldly at Lin Yuan.

The yuan energy within him surged, and the aura was fierce, as if it would scatter the entire west courtyard’s bustle.

The maid attending on the side shivered, unable to bear it.

"Trying to intimidate me?" Lin Yuan quickly understood Cheng Xiongjia’s intention.

He smiled faintly, and when a brawny man pulled out a chair, he sat down in a relaxed manner.

"Master Lin, what courage." Seeing Lin Yuan’s unchanged expression, Cheng Xiongjia withdrew his aura and praised.

"You’re flattering me."

The maid served dishes and poured wine, the tabletop full of steaming delicious dishes.

Cheng Xiongjia raised his cup, and with the two people beside him toasted Lin Yuan.

"I invited Master Lin to our Lotus Gang firstly to welcome you, and secondly to honor your recent hard work in learning about the people’s conditions." Cheng Xiongjia was full of social niceties as he drained his cup to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan raised his cup and took a light sip.

Seeing Lin Yuan’s attitude, Cheng Xiongjia slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

The person opposite wasn’t as cooperative as he had imagined. Looking at that fair and obnoxious face, Cheng Xiongjia wanted to strike and pin it to the chair at this moment.

But the time was not right, and he could not act yet.

Cheng Xiongjia watched Lin Yuan, hiding a trace of murderous intent in his eyes.

He clapped his hands, and someone on either side brought out a prepared generous gift.

"Master Lin, this is a little token from our Lotus Gang, please do not decline." Cheng Xiongjia smiled slightly and unveiled the red cloth on the tray.

Three shining gold bars and a milky white porcelain bottle were revealed.

"Our Lotus Gang is willing to offer ten Five Qi Pills and thirty taels of gold to you, Master Lin," Cheng Xiongjia confidently declared, "hoping you might favor us with your guidance, and every year hereafter we will offer four bottles of Five Qi Pills."

Faced with the offerings, Lin Yuan slowly pushed them aside.

"Does this man want even more?" Cheng Xiongjia speculated privately, his expression darkening.

"Gang Leader Cheng, I appreciate the attention, but I cannot accept such wealth," Lin Yuan straightened and said, "I came here to explain two matters to the gang leader."

"First, I need to know who harmed those two girls last night."

"Second, in the Lotus Gang’s territory, starting today, things will be conducted by the rules I set."

"Hmph, such arrogance!" Cheng Xiongjia barked sharply, suddenly standing and slapping the table, "You refuse a toast, so drink a forfeit instead!"

Killing intent was evident on his face.

"Ding dang dang."

Cups and dishes on the table rattled, continuously clinking against each other.

Lin Yuan sat motionlessly, his eyes calmly watching the furious Cheng Xiongjia.

After the cups quieted down, there was a brief moment of silence in the room.

"The rules I mentioned, are the rules," Lin Yuan said nonchalantly, "Anyone who disobeys, I will kill!"

"Alright then. You’re brash at a young age, today I, Cheng, have witnessed it." Cheng Xiongjia advanced towards Lin Yuan, his aura steadily increasing, pressing against Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan only felt the unique destructive force of yuan energy continuously eroding his Qi-Blood, clearly showing Cheng Xiongjia’s intention to embarrass him, forcing him to yield.

But evidently, it had no effect on Lin Yuan.

The robust Qi-Blood circulation instantly obliterated the intent within the yuan energy, and the pressure on his body dissipated.

"Yesterday, who harmed those two girls? Gang Leader Cheng, I need an explanation." Lin Yuan stood up, slowly tidying his robes, then calmly walked toward Cheng Xiongjia.

Standing less than two feet apart, the two faced each other, their energies clashing fiercely.

The wine in the cup between the two trembled incessantly.

"Boom!"

The cup shattered, and the wine splattered everywhere.

"No comment!" Cheng Xiongjia said with a malicious expression, snorting coldly.

Although his expression didn’t change, he was secretly shocked.

During the confrontation, the thickness of Lin Yuan’s Qi-Blood could easily extinguish the intent he emitted. It’s known that his subordinates couldn’t withstand his pressure for even three breaths.

Truly, he had underestimated the person opposite him.

But Condensation Realm was still Condensation Realm; if the two clashed, killing Lin Yuan would be like slaughtering a dog. As a Condensation Realm level two figure, he had that confidence.

He intended to let him live a few more days.

"Very well." Lin Yuan nodded, saying lightly, "Thank you, Gang Leader Cheng, for the hospitality."

Lin Yuan then turned and stepped out, striding out from this filthy place.

After Lin Yuan left, Cheng Xiongjia’s mood remained dour, so his men didn’t dare to say much.

Cheng Xiongjia stared at Lin Yuan’s receding figure, his eyes cold and severe, as he downed a cup of fine wine and turned to walk deeper into the private room.
