Chapter 261: Chapter 245 Temporary Relief from Crisis_2
“Now you’re not even pretending anymore, you must have been dissatisfied with me long ago and have been wanting to get rid of me.”
“Just as well, it’s time for us to settle our differences.”
The Zhang Family Patriarch shook his head and said,
“Wǔ Cǎi, you’re still so stubborn, unwilling to listen to anyone’s advice.”
After speaking, he turned to Zhang Wu and said:
“Little Wu, take Lin Jing and leave this place to avoid getting injured by mistake.”
“Yes, Master.”
Zhang Wu responded and then led Lin Jing out.
They retreated a great distance before Zhang Wu finally stopped.
From afar, the two of them watched the standoff between the two men in the arena.
The two men’s momentum was like rainbows, like two unparalleled swords facing each other.
Even though they were far away, Lin Jing could still clearly feel that suffocating pressure.
Perhaps it was because the two men’s momentum was too astonishing.
Before the two could make a move, from a distance, several figures were seen flying rapidly towards this side.
“Both of you, hold your hands for a moment!”
The voice arrived before the people.
This voice came from among those few figures, quickly reaching the ears of the two men who were confronting each other.
The two men turned their heads and saw those few figures, knowing that today, no matter what, they wouldn’t be able to start their fight.
Their momentum also thus receded.
Quickly.
These people swept past Lin Jing and hurried forward.
It was at this moment that Lin Jing realized among these few people, he recognized two of them.
One of them was Elder Wang, whom he met when he had just arrived at the Fang Market.
And the other.
Lin Jing was even more familiar with, it was Elder Qin who had given him specific instructions before he teleported away.
Without the need for further words,
These people were surely all elders from the top three Sects.
No wonder the Zhang Family Patriarch and the Wu Cai Immortal could not fight and reined in their power.
With the elders from the three Sects there, they were not likely to let them start a conflict.
“Come on, let’s go over too.”
Seeing that the two had calmed down, Zhang Wu led Lin Jing closer as well.
As they just arrived, they heard someone persuading:
“Both of you, why go to such lengths?”
“Can’t you discuss things amicably?”
“Why must you resort to violence?”
“Indeed…”
Another long-bearded elder echoed.
“Given the special circumstances now, if you have any conflicts, it’s best to show some restraint.”
At this point, Elder Wang also spoke up:
“I’m not sure why both of you are acting this way, we can help mediate and resolve your grievances.”
After Elder Wang finished speaking, the Zhang Family Patriarch began to speak first:
“Actually, to tell the truth, it’s not a big deal.”
“I suppose you are all aware of the accident at the Liu Clan, and Wu Cai has been harboring resentment in his heart because of that incident.”
“It just so happened that today, he encountered a juniormost member who had a small grudge with Liu Yiyuan and wanted to take action against him.”
“This junior is the disciple of a close friend of mine, naturally, I couldn’t ignore it. I intended to intervene to stop it, but I didn’t expect to get drawn into the fire myself.”
“Junior…?”
The people then turned their heads to look at Lin Jing.
This junior was undoubtedly Lin Jing.
Seeing them looking towards him, Lin Jing stepped forward, bowed with clasped hands to the elders, and said:
“I am Lin Jing, I pay my respects to the elders…”
The elders nodded, and among them, Elder Qin looked at Lin Jing and said:
“It’s you…”
“Seeing you unharmed also puts my mind at ease.”
Lin Jing bowed again and expressed his gratitude to Elder Qin:
“I am also thankful for Elder Qin’s advice; following your instructions, I managed to avoid the Demonic Beasts and made my way here.”
Elder Qin nodded and praised Lin Jing first:
“For someone of your cultivation to make it through the dense forest of the Secret Realm is quite an accomplishment.”
Then he asked:
“The Immortal Chen Fan mentioned that this matter was because of you; what exactly happened?”
With Elder Qin present, Lin Jing didn’t need to worry anymore.
Because there were many things Elder Qin could testify to directly.
Lin Jing then began to speak,
