Chapter 355 - Growing Crisis

Facing Lin Zhannan's emotional thanks, Ling Xiao felt the tight grip on his hand and laughed helplessly: "Chief Lin, there's no need to be so polite. It's all a matter of luck, I didn't intentionally help much."

Hearing that, Lin Zhannan's face turned serious as he waved his hand: "Great Hero Ling, that is not what I meant. If you did not kill bandit and take back those things, then I really would not have any other choice."

"How about this, I know that this kindness cannot be expressed with just one or two words of thanks. If Great Hero Ling doesn't mind, I will stay in my residence and take it as my own home. I will stay for as long as I want." Lin Zhannan said with a serious expression.

Hearing this, Ling Xiao shook his head and laughed: "Chief Lin, do you know why I have come to the Fujian, and why I have to stay?"

"This... Then can Great Hero Ling tell me? " Lin Zhannan asked.

Ling Xiao shook his head.

Seeing this scene, Lin Zhannan pondered for a moment, then said: "Since Great Hero Ling is unwilling to say, then I will not ask any further, but no matter what it is, I will have to ask Great Hero Ling to stay. If there is anything that I can help with, please do not lie to me."

Ling Xiao heard and nodded his head: "I understand Boss Lin's sincerity. Good, in the future, I will stay here."

Hearing that, Lin Zhannan clapped his hands together and said happily: "Great, I will bring Great Hero Ling to take a look around the courtyard. If you see anything, just say it.

Just like that, Lin Zhennan led Ling Xiao to the backyard, and before they left, they told their men to bring the waiter away, and they didn't know how to handle it.

As for Ling Xiao's Carriage, Lin Zhennan waved his hand and assigned ten servants to watch over them, night and day. He wanted to ensure that no one would be able to get close to him.

Under Lin Zhenan's lead, Ling Xiao finally started to carefully size up the interior of the Lin Mansion. Furthermore, all the way, Lin Zhennan took the initiative to introduce the history of the mansion to Ling Xiao.

Because Lin Zhannan was not the founder of Forwey's escort office, the first chief escort of Forwey's escort office was Lin Zhannan's grandfather, Lin Tu Yuan.

Regarding this part of history, Ling Xiao was very clear about it.

Back then, the reason why Lin Tu Yuan was able to create the Forwey's escort office and stabilize himself was because of his extremely powerful martial arts. Even now, the name of this martial art was still a pursuit pursued by martial artists.

And this famous technique was rumored to be hidden in the Lin Mansion, and this technique was called Evil Repellent Swordsmanship.

However, Ling Xiao knew that even though the martial arts book was hidden in the Lin Mansion, it was not hidden in an extremely deep place.

It was just that Ling Xiao was not able to show that he already knew, and the current master of the Lin Family, Lin Zhannan, had not learnt Evil Repellent Swordsmanship yet, so Ling Xiao also asked him a lot of questions.

"Chief Lin, who do you think is holding the Evil Warding Swordsmanship?" Ling Xiao asked.

Hearing these words, Lin Zhannan was startled, then laughed helplessly and said: "I don't know, back then my father left the Lin Mansion with the Evil Warding Swordsmanship, but he was unable to bring it back in the end."

"Is that so, it's quite a pity, if we were able to pass down the Evil Warding Swordsmanship, the Forwey's escort office would probably become even more glorious." Ling Xiao said indifferently.

Lin Zhennan let out another heavy sigh and said: "That's right, I have also thought about this problem before. The situation in the Forwey's escort office is getting more and more serious, moreover …. I don't know who it is that is adding fuel to the fire on Jianghu, but after some rumors were spread, my Lin Mansion gradually became the target of public criticism. "

Hearing this, Ling Xiao immediately knew what was going on. What was next was the greatest crisis that the Forwey's escort office and the others were going to face.

"Oh? What is it that makes Chief Lin feel so worried? " Ling Xiao continued to ask.

Lin Zhannan slightly frowned and said: "It should be my rival's family, the Qingcheng Sect did a good deed on me."

"Why do you say that?" Ling Xiao asked.

Lin Zhannan stopped at a corner of the courtyard and said worriedly: "Qingcheng Sect's Sect Leader's son Yu Canghai, I don't know how Yu Renyan died, and my son was also present. Qingcheng Sect said by name that it was my son who stabbed him to death, how laughable, my son didn't have a sword in his hand at that time."

"How can this be a joke? The Qingcheng Sect does not pursue the matter of the culprit, instead, she uses this as an excuse to challenge all of you." Ling Xiao analyzed.

Hearing this, Lin Zhennan's expression slightly shivered. He looked up at Ling Xiao and said: "Great Hero Ling, if you put it this way, I seem to understand why Qingcheng Sect would forcefully place this crime on my son's head."

"Hmph, this Yu Canghai actually wants to use his son's death to make trouble for my Lin Family. Does he really think we can be easily bullied?" Lin Zhannan waved his sleeves as he coldly snorted.

"Since I want to take this opportunity to attack you, it is not a matter of compensation. I'm afraid that we will have to fight to the death before it can end. So, Chief Lin, you should quickly gather your power and prepare to face this challenge." Ling Xiao suggested.

Hearing this, Lin Zhannan solemnly nodded his head and said: "Great Hero Ling is right, I will give the order shortly."

Ling Xiao's expression was still calm, but he understood in his heart that even now, Lin Zhennan had only seen the most superficial of things. As the son of the Qingcheng Sect, Yu Ren was still a member of the Qingcheng Sect, how could the Qingcheng Sect use his death to simply cause trouble for the Forwey's escort office and the Forwey's escort office?

This was definitely a plot that was even deeper than that. After all, the Jianghu had all sorts of rumors about the secret of the Lin Family. However, Lin Zhannan did not notice it at all and did not know that the real danger was hidden beneath the surface.

"Oh right, I have yet to ask about the identity of the Great Hero Ling. I wonder if you can explain in detail, because I have never heard of your accomplishments before." Lin Zhannan remembered something and asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao smiled slightly, and said: "You are naturally not familiar with my name, but the name that you are going to say next, you should be very familiar with it."

"Oh? Great Hero Ling, please speak. " After all, Ling Xiao was able to kill so many bandit by himself, so his strength was naturally terrifying. However, such a strong person, not only was he young, there was not much news about him in the Jianghu.

Ling Xiao said in a bland voice, "I come from the Huashan Mountain."

Hearing that, Lin Zhennan quickly said: "So you are an expert from the Huashan Mountain. No wonder you are so powerful, has Sect Leader been well recently?"

"I am the Huashan Mountain sent by the Huashan Mountain." Ling Xiao revealed a smile.
