Zombie Bodyguard
Chapter 396 - 395: An Unexpected Visitor

Otherwise, it would be normal for any other member of the Bai Family to appear abroad, but Bai Zhengchu’s appearance would not be normal. He was already not young and had not traveled abroad for a long time. His sudden departure from his stronghold was indeed surprising.

"You saw Bai Zhengchu!" Lin Tian said with certainty.

"Holy crap, how did you know? Are you a god, or did you also go to Myanmar?" Zhou Botong’s voice came in astonishment.

Myanmar? The old guy actually went to Myanmar, a place he had once frequented. What was he doing there? Lin Tian puzzled over another piece of important information he heard from Zhou Botong’s words.

"Hey, Brother Lin, you still haven’t told me, how did you know it was Bai Zhengchu? Don’t tell me you have a Thousand-mile Eye or Sharp-Hearing Ear," Zhou Botong couldn’t figure it out.

Thousand-mile Eye I do not have, though I can see within a few miles. Lin Tian chuckled and said, "Who else could it be that relates to the Bai Family and can surprise you if not Bai Zhengchu?"

"That’s true. But him going to Myanmar is not a good sign. The old guy had spent a lot of time in Myanmar when he was young, and they say he even married a few wives there. Besides, with his capabilities, he certainly has many old friends, perhaps even some mercenaries he groomed!" Zhou Botong expressed his concern.

Unexpectedly, Bai Zhengchu had been quite a charmer in his youth, having married several wives in Myanmar. However, Myanmar is a polygamous country, so that was not illegal.

"I’m not too worried about the mercenaries, but I’m afraid he might know some Ancient Martial Artists or such. You know, the destructive power of Ancient Martial Artists is very potent," Lin Tian said.

His concern wasn’t unwarranted, as Myanmar wasn’t very peaceful, and personal martial power had a stage for exhibition, like Ghost who had made his way out from there.

Ghost was an Ancient Yoga Skill Cultivator, who had been hired by Bai Zhengchu as an ally before Lin Tian eventually subdued him. But there was no guarantee that Bai Zhengchu might not recruit someone even more formidable than Ghost if it was someone like Master Manxue of the Innate Realm, it would be really interesting.

However speculative he might be, Lin Tian was not frightened but rather looked forward to, having another duel with a master of the Innate Realm. The last time Lin Tian fought with Master Manxue, they did not determine a victor; he was eager to fight again to see how strong the potential of his zombie body could be.

"What should we do then? I went there this time carrying a family mission to purchase jade raw stones, not expecting the old guy to intervene personally," Zhou Botong said.

So, Zhou Botong was not just there for fun but was also looking after his family’s business. And playing around in such a place was quite thrilling, very much suiting Ou Mengmeng’s fierce personality.

"Don’t worry about it, I’ll see how things go. I’ve got to hang up now; I still have classes," Lin Tian said, ready to end the call.

"Alright, rest assured, I’ll definitely be there for the opening this time, won’t run off to play anymore, bye," Zhou Botong said earnestly.

But Lin Tian considered it hot air; this guy might just run off with Ou Mengmeng to another country to play on that day. He hung up directly and returned to the classroom.

The classmates were still discussing the latest news headlines. Watching this scene, Lin Tian felt somewhat emotional; his life was now filled with thrills and excitement, while his classmates were carefree and tranquil, as if in a different world, and Lin Tian constantly fluctuated between these two worlds.

When school ended, Lin Tian was packing up to leave but was stopped at the classroom door by the sudden appearance of Liu Ru Meng.

"Lin Tian, today is the first meeting of the English Association; as the president, you must attend," Liu Ru Meng said.

"Teacher Ru Meng, for such a small matter, a phone call would have sufficed. There was no need for you to come in person," Lin Tian said with a smile, holding his books.

"Don’t I know you well enough? Calling you would certainly be useless. You might agree over the phone but disappear as soon as school is out," Liu Ruming said with absolute certainty, yet there was a hint of helplessness in her tone, as if she was at her wits’ end with Lin Tian.

"Lin Tian, Teacher Liu really understands you," Xiao Manxuan giggled and said, "Well, I’ll go back with Sister Yu then, you take your time at the meeting."

Lin Tian glanced at Zhang Lingyu, who seemed to see right through his thoughts and softly said, "Don’t worry, she’ll be safe with me."

Indeed, with Zhang Lingyu’s skills, there weren’t many who could benefit from her. Lin Tian nodded and walked away with Liu Ruming.

The meeting was scheduled in a freshman classroom. It was only when Lin Tian arrived that he realized he had been tricked by Liu Ruming again. The classroom was packed, not at all resembling a meeting setup.

"Lin Tian, I can explain this. The original plan was to notify members for a meeting, but non-members showed up as well. We have controlled the number of members, but they insisted on coming too. It’s your charm to blame," Liu Ruming said helplessly.

"We agreed that I would just show my face and leave," Lin Tian was even more helpless.

Liu Ruming knew she couldn’t push too hard and had to agree. But Lin Tian underestimated his classmates’ enthusiasm. Once he entered the classroom, he felt he couldn’t escape. He began by giving a president’s speech as required, then kept answering the girls’ various questions.

Questions about whether he had a girlfriend, what type of girls he liked, and so on bombarded Lin Tian. Finally, with no other option, he proposed starting the first session of the English Corner, which somewhat shifted their focus.

In the end, unable to bear it any longer, Lin Tian excused himself to ’pee,’ pretending to go to the restroom, and finally managed to catch a breath outside.

He dared not return to the classroom. If there were enemies inside, Lin Tian could blast them all to bits without hesitation, but it was just a bunch of classmates after all.

He decided to sneak away and had just reached the gate when he received a text from Liu Ruming.

"Lin Tian, I know you slipped away, but I still want to thank you."

Liu Ruming was quite astute. If it were any other teacher, they might have started scolding by now. Lin Tian really appreciated her way of handling things.

He smiled, walked to the parking lot, and drove away from school. Upon returning to the Xiao Family, it was already past six o’clock. At the entrance of the Xiao Family’s gate, Lin Tian noticed a strange black sedan parked there.

The car wasn’t luxurious, quite ordinary, but the license plate was not ordinary at all. The plate had a white background with a red "Military" character leading, indicating it was a military district’s car.

Who brought a military district’s car to the Xiao Family? Lin Tian was very puzzled, as the Xiao Family should have no dealings with the military. Could it be that something significant had happened at the Xiao Family?

Lin Tian drove into the garage, entered the courtyard filled with questions, and as he approached the traditional villa, three people came out from inside.

One of them was Miss, and the other two, a man and a woman, were probably in their fifties and late forties, respectively. No need to guess, they were the ones who came in the military car. Strangely, they were not in uniform.
